I noticed my Incredible S's back/battery cover isn't firmly attached even after reattaching it to the phone a few times. I can press down a little bit of the left back cover but the right side is okay. Anyone else experiencing this?
I also tried pressing down that side first to secure it when reattaching but it's still the same.
The side I'm talking about is the opposite side of the volume rocker.
Mine fits perfectly, take it back for a replacement
My first IS had this problem
I returned it to have another one, nothing to complaine now with this one
but before making the exchange, check the new one if there is a problem with the battery cover
Well, it's a minor annoyance but I can live with it. It's probably not worth the expense of exchanging it since I bought it internationally online. I just had to make sure I'm not just placing it the wrong way.

Hi,
I THINK I have had a similar issue when trying the first times..
One side, I think the one with the +/- loudness button didn't close perfectly..
I found that it only works when I start fitting the cover at the top first and start pressing on both sides (left and right), slowly moving my fingers downwards and pressing.
I had the same problem next to the SDCard slot, but I swapped it for a new one and its fine

Any DIY fix for this? It's just that my thumb is always on that spot. :l
I've had this as well, it just takes some magic and trickery to get it to fit perfectly. Dont really know how I managed it to fit perfectly again, but I removed it several times and pressed the area I was having trouble with first.
I had this yesterday on the right side. Pushed hard from top/bottom and it wouldn't go in.
I then tried from the side and this worked. Hope this makes sense as its hard to explain.

What do you mean from the side?
There was a slight gap a couple of mm. Looked like the inside teeth type parts weren't quite lining up to allow pressing together. I pushed it side on (the right side edge) and it clicked in.

Hmmm, my problem is on the left side though (when battery cover is facing you), only the middle part of the edge of the battery cover wouldn't close properly. I think this is the part between the two teeth.
Any guide to properly close it back?
I just replaced my cracked screen on my phone. Bought it from Ebay. When I put it back together I notice that in the middle of the screen it is unresponsive. When I try and type on it I cant get the middle of the keyboard to work. When I put the phone back to stock thinking it would calibrate the screen, it is the same result, when I try and choose a language it doesn't let me choose the English language. I thought maybe I forgot to plug a certain cable in but it is still doing this after I took apart and put back together the phone three times. The main areas that aren't working is the bottom part of the screen where the keyboard pops up and the top of the screen about a half inch down in the middle. My question is did I get a faulty screen replacement? Or is there a way of calibrating the screen itself?
Bad digitizer did you get a replacement for that too?

Yes, it came with the screen.
I'm guessing a digitizer issue only idea I have
Sent from my XT875 using XDA App
Questions solved. You are probably right. The seller got back to me and he said he sent me the wrong part. He was supposed to send me the glass with the digitizer, brand new, and he sent me a used screen with digitizer and the frame around it. He said he will send the new screen ASAP. Thanks for your responses. Hopefully I wont have trouble with the new part.
No problem

I have a white N-7000 and this am saw a crack or slit on the bezel of the
screen just above the volume rocker. I was wondering if its always been there or if it
is a crack? I will post a picture when I can. Anyone see the same or did mine crack?
Thanks!
No such slit on mine
ive black one
metal body is complete without cracks
Please share pic. Previously I had same kind of crack top left corner and already replaced my note with new one.

Here are a couple pictures from my G nex. Although overall its not a big deal, for some reason stuff like this bugs the heck out of me.
Thanks for the help too. I got it unlocked from Negri so I am not sure what my options are. The top speaker grille has always been a bit loose too, but so is life.
DO NOT complicate this with the screen separation issue, my device does not have this issue.
When on a black screen when pressing the devices screen, it does not have to be hard just medium, the screen will flex causing the display below to ripple. It reminds me of the HTC One X screen flex issue at the top ends of the device where it was curved.
I have made a video showing my findings, I know at times it looks like I'm pressing extremely hard on the screen, I'm not its just because I was on a soft surface and so the device pushed into the bed. :angel:
Oh and your probably better watching it in full screen, just watched it embedded on here myself and it's hard to see
It's a TOUCH screen not a PRESS screen. Be gentle... you meanie!
I saw what you meant once in that video, but it did look like you pressed pretty hard. I tried to replicate it to no avail. Sorry.

I know I know, honestly though I promise you I was not pressing hard. Honest truth I noticed this issue because I held the device with one hand, and I was NOT pushing hard.
I've noticed this minor issue on mine, but on the left hand side of the screen. Doesn't bother me too much.
It probably happens because your device has the screen lift too? or the screws are loose.
As before I did the washer trick my screen also did this on the left side only, it was spongy too, once I did the washer trick it didn't do it again. :good:

Yeah I don't really see it as an issue, as long as my device works that's all I'm bothered about and I mainly use my iPad anyway.

Hmm, well the screen doesn't appear to be raised ANYWHERE and I only just got it yesterday (14th August).
My second/current one does this. But only on the left side. If you press on the black bezel around the screen on the bottom third. You'll get the ripple. Nowhere else though. And you have to press it pretty hard. It's not an issue.
No screen lift on this one. Screen lift was replaced by this ripple. That's actually how I noticed it, checking my new one for seperation, and spongy feel. Which it doesn't have.
Isn't this just a trait of LCD screens?
My One X has the same thing and has a Super LCD screen.

LCD is the screen itself, it is a trait however the bezel and glass should stop this from happening, because obviously if this happens a lot, then device is going to be damaged

Yeah. If you see ripples, you are applying excessive pressure to the screen. This is standard for any LCD, not an issue.

Well said. Not an issue.
Yeah, I'm saying that because my old laptops did the same thing when you touched the screen. Not a issue...
Phones have Glass over the screen. You don't actually touch the LCD. You have the LCD, then the digitizer, then the glass. So I think this is because the LCD is too close to the digitizer because of the screw issue. I had screen separation issues on the left side and this ripple. I made some "washers" using some medication foil packaging (3x) and not only did it fix the screen issue, but the screws are nice and tight (fixes squeaks) and pulls the screen down away from the digitizer so you don't get this effect.
Mine USED to do this (mostly on the left side) but now it doesn't after I put in those "washers". The bottom left is more sensitive still but requires lots of pressure still. If you press hard enough on the screen the LCD will still ripple.
RMA and chill.
I'm sorry but these threads are getting tiring now.

Mine is mainly on the left side as well, its actually quire hard to recreate it on the right, though its possible. I'd just like to assure readers that I am not using excessive force on the screen at all, not even close. As I said, I can recreate this just by holding the tablet with one hand!

wow, this has to be the biggest non issue for the nexus. it's a LCD if you press that hard of course the screen will ripple. yes the top is glass, but the nexus 7 screen uses a new process with less layers of glass to minimize thickness.
Do you have a laptop or lcd monitor? Press on the screen and see what happens.
OP you are pushing way too hard to simulate normal usage. The screen is covered in thin glass not bullet proof glass and if you push to hard it will flex and distort the black light and cause ripples.
Seriously this is a non issue.

Yeh I got ripples if pushing to hard but had the common sense to understand this is not a fault its LDC my old omnia phone does it.

HAVE ANYONE FOUND A FIX!?!?!?!
All,
I notice when there is a lot of reflection in my screen that I could see blue lines crossing from top to bottom (not sure if you can understand me).
It's more noticable when the screen is receiving a lot of light from the sun and screen is black.
Have somebody found the same issue? I can't make a picture because they are not seen.
I'm thinking to go to Vodafone and ask for a new phone or double check it with another one.
Regards,
Jordi
It is normal. The lines are the screen edges. They can be seen at the top, bottom, left and right edges of the screen when it is off.
You must be lucky then! If my guess is right it should be the oleophobic coating on the screen. And as you stated that you can see them that must only mean it was applied thicker than normal. Which means you won't likely run into fingerprint trouble anytime soon.

I have no idea what this means. Do you mean you can see lines on the screen edges or do you see blocks of little strips going from top to bottom? The first one is just the lamination of the screen, the second is just the touch sensor beneath the glass.
The lines are going from left to right through all screen (top to bottom).
It's hard to explain but if you play a little with the screen when is receiving the sun or there is a lot of light easy to see them.
For sure there is something applied more than normal or an issue screen process.
Just wanted to check if sonebody has the same issue or no as i dont have any other person to compare.
Thanks

Yes, that is the touch panel. Normal and unavoidable. HTC needs to go with in-cell touch to get rid of it. Even then, it might still be there.
I was surprised as i have other HTC phones like the Sensation, Touch Pro 2 and no lines shown.
Thanks for your help
