I am on a Telegram group from Spain. Other users reports the same issue.. Tomorrow i'll chat with +1 support.

USB-C ports are supposed to wobble a little. It helps prevent them from breaking. If they were perfectly stiff, they would break much more easily.

[Q] charging port fit

Anyone else notice that the charging port on the MX is really tight? I feel like I'm going to break it when I'm plugging the cord in.
Edit: just realized I should have posted this in the q&a section. Mods please move if necessary.

Not the slutty type of charging port but her less experienced, more innocent but hotter friend. I just don't want any breakage to occur.
1 year warranty applies. I won't worry about it and am happy that it won't just fall out. The cavernous type aren't appealing either.

It was like this on my phone too, but more than a week on and it is less scary to plug the phone in.

Nexus 5 power button rattle fix....

Right, I may or may not be alone in this but the rattle from my power button was really starting to p**s me off. I could hear it clearly when the phone was at arms length and I tapped the screen anywhere in the top half. I thought it was the camera at first, then found holding the power button still whilst using the phone stopped it. This morning I was using my phone and decided to do something about it.
First can I say this was not any normal rattle (i.e camera lens), you could clearly hear it at arms length whilst tapping the screen in the top half. I made this video because people have told me they have the same issue. If you take your phone apart and break it, that's not my fault.
For those that have this problem and decide to do this, I hope it helps It has made me a hell of a lot happier with the phone.

Ah, forgot to mentiom, this is my 2nd one. Bought my first one and heard the rattle, took it back after 2 hours. The replacement does the same thing and looking on here in the defects thread it seems a few people have the problem. There's no sort of warranty seal inside the phone and the stuff can easily be taken out again should it die for some reason and I need to get a new one under warranty.
nice? possible to change into a higher mah battery?

The battery seems easy enough to remove, so if there were one available I suppose it wouldn't take more than a few minutes to change

Some people analyse small insignificant things too much, surely it couldn't have made an audible noise level outside of a sound proof box.
Did the sales person look at you bemused or did he test the rattle and end up deafened by it?

He agreed that he could hear the rattle. It may not have seemed that important to him in a loud and busy shop, but when you're sat on your sofa in the evening and even the slightest of taps near the top of the screen make it rattle it doesn't take long before it becomes very annoying. If it were just when I shook the phone near my ear or something then I would have just accepted it, but it's the fact it is hard to ignore,even at arms length, made me want to do something about it.

Fair enough I guess.
I did the very same with my Nexus 4. Using tiny bits of tissue. Dunno why everyone is crying about it, its a very simple fix!
Thanks mate
I'm getting my N5 tomorrow, and living in a country not supported by Google Play Devices, it's nice to know that I can fix stuff like that myself
Stick it in a case, that should do it.

I have a case for it that I got off ebay, a clear tpu gel one. It muffles the sound but it is still there, plus I really like the feel of the phone and in the case you lose that.

If you check further down the General section you'll see yesterday I posted screenshots where I got almost 7 hours of screen on time over an 11 or so hour period with the N5 Admittedly that was 99% on wifi, but it's still good

I see....
I think its because my network signal is mostly yellow, whilst yours is almost all green. I wonder if we can change the radios?
eh... my N5 power button rattles isn't as bad as my iPhone 4s power button rattle
not concerned, thanks for the head up tho OP! :good:
The more Im reading, the creepier it gets for me Only because I'm gonna make someone buy the phone for me and send it, so there would be no chance of return if I saw any kind of defects. Just why all these reports of rattles, dead pixels, after vibration weird sound...ughhhh! Was planning to buy it from Carphone Warehouse...

Burning smell in Moto G

Well my phone has a burning plastic like smell, I have asked for replacement
Good
I have replaced my phone for other problem but that smell is present on this phone also...
May be it's because of the water resistant coating.

Yeah I also have this smell on my device.. But as my device doesn't get heated.. I suppose this smell due to the plastic used in our device
Just opened the package, and started the phone. i was deleting large file of my sdcard, my bramd new phone started geting hot with smell. what should i do? should i observe 2-3 days with complete charging discharging cycles?
I got a replacement, though its not heating that much but the smell is still present. its coming from headphone jack and usb port. we can notice it only when i place my nose on it. did anybody check it?

Put my nose on the USB port and the headphone port. No smell. Maybe I have just have a bad nose... Asked my dog to smell, but he didn't get the point.. ?

Last week. Have it for about 8 days now. For me it's perfect! (at least after rooting and installing the necessary xposed modules). Unfortunately until now little development going on here!

I have been enjoying this one:

So far no issues and I like the angle. Perfect for DayDream.

Does your daydream work all night or does it shut off and back on when the battery is full? Wireless charging cycles on and off when the battery is full and it seems to mess with Daydream.
Seen this one at Verizon the other day, really diggin it. Waitin for my gift cards to come in from trading in phones and probably gonna cop it.

Yes, the one I posted works just fine with not only the Incipio case, but I also have the Metal disc from the iOauto magenetic holder for my car.
I have noticed, however, that it gets rather warm when I take it off when its in the case, so that is something to think about.
The charger does stop when it reaches 100%...this is causing daydream to fail by morning so I'm thinking of trying to use Trigger to turn on daydream whenever wireless charging starts...that may do the trick...

[Q] Turbo headphone jack issues?

So I got my turbo last week in blue nylon (and i'm loving it) but there's one horrid problem with it, the headphone jack doesn't want to work with some of my headphones. when I plug in my over the ear theres static the left ear, and a pulse of static on the right (kinda like a heartbeat). This occurs on my phone and my brother's, who got it in black. I've narrowed the problem down to the ones with 3 bands on the plug vs 2. Does anyone know what the hell is going on? any help would be appreciated, thanks!!

When I first got my Razr Maxx it did the same thing. I took some caned air with the little straw and blew it out really good and it was fine. Occasionally I had to do it again tho. But be careful I wouldn't stick it too far down inside the jack because sometimes that stuff is pretty powerful. Idk if this will help you but its worth a try.

You should definitely be under warranty. I wouldn't settle for a phone with a broken piece if hardware. Just my two cents
i'll definitely send it in, but I won't have a chance to do so for a couple weeks. So i'll be using bluetooth anyway. thanks for your help btw!
