Do you have creaks right side or around of screen? I have creaks of right side near irda blaster.
Mine 10.1 has creak issue near left speaker. It can be even seen as the frame is on same level as silver border
Creak like creaking sound or ???
Yes mine started as creaking and now the whole right bezel is separating from the screen completely. Along with burnt pixels.
Yes. Right side and bottom left are creaking on my 10.1. No separation though. I always have it in a case so I don't notice it.
I passed the device under warranty. Waiting for the result from the service center. Quality is terrible.
I thought I was dreaming, so there are creaks
yes!
Dood yea mine does the same thing. I was wondering If this was something to be worried about because I dont see or feel anything wrong with the device even though it creeks. I really dont want to get a refurb but do you think its something to pursue?
I have it too on the left side of the screen, where is the slot for micro sd card. I didn't notice it, before i read this thread and look on my device deeply. I hope it wont be expanding more.

I was wondering if any other tmo touchpro 2 owners had slightly squeaky battery covers, more specifically, when pressure is applied to the upper right hand corner of the cover, there would be a creaky sound or on any other corner or place on the battery cover....i'm wondering if its just mine...
Squeeky Battery Cover
I have T-Mobile's HTC Touch Pro2. Can't hear any squeaks.
I have the Telus TP2 and I get a squeak right near the volume buttons. I'm glad I'm not the only one, it's a PITA actually
Is it enough to swap my phone out, though? That's a good question...
No problem with mine. But I did read somewhere about Tmo tp2 owners complaining of loose battery cover.
I think I may go back to the TMO store I bought it from to see if there was anything they could do..hopefully there is cuz the creak is annoying..

Mine does too. Its just some plasticy fit/finish intermittent sound- no big deal.
As long as there are no funny noises from the front of the phone, and the battery cover
doesn't fall off by itself, I wouldn't really be bothered about some squeaks.
Mine squeaks when I press the front corner where the End call button is. But I started tilting the screen up and down, and now it doesn't squeak as much anymore

Yes, it does squeek whenever I press the end button. Will try the tilting if that fixes it.
Last night while using the phone I noticed this slight clicking sound from the bottom right corner of the screen (touch-sensitive panel). So I kept pressing it and I wasn't hallucinating, its there. Also figured the sound also comes when I press the bottom right or bottom center edge of the phone. The creaking sound isn't loud but its noticeable when I hold the phone in specific angles and while typing if haptic feedback is on, I think the vibration also makes it happen(weird)
So except for this my HOX is fine and am wondering if I should get it changed.
Are there any long term effects to this? I'm starting to just ignore the sound and trying not to make it happen purposely
Depends, does it make the sound when you're using it normally? If it does I would consider swapping it, although you said everything else was fine.
If on the other hand, it makes the sound if you hold it in a certain way and push unusually hard then I would say stop intentionally pushing it in a weird way and use it properly.
People have been complaining about "screen flex" along the side of the phone when they push on the edge and run their fingers along the side. Want to get rid of the screen flex when you push the edge of your phone and move your finger along it? STOP PUSHING THE EDGE OF YOUR PHONE!!!
Just remember that some phones have had screen flickering, yellow marks and even scratches under the screen, you may not be as lucky as your were the first time if you choose to swap it.
what you described is not flex even, most mobile devices have a creak some where
Flex should mean the screen is literally loose to warrant an exchange

The only time I've noticed this sound while using the phone is during haptic feedback from typing on the keyboard. I switched haptic feedback off to save battery and for this 'problem'

I did reduce pushing it intentionally since last night after figuring it might mess it up more.

Yea after I got mind-f***ed I did press the edge a lot to be sure.(we humans ...) But now am controlling myself to not press the edge and use it normally.

Exactly why am thinking hard if I should get mine replaced. Another reason being I'll be leaving UAE(got the phone here) for good in a week and if by chance I do get a defective unit I'll waste a lot of time.
I'm not gonna play around with the edge anymore haha.

Yes you're right a lot of electronics and gadgets have creaking parts. Mostly the ones made outa plastic though. Does your HOX creak too?

my first flexed bad (soft one pressure, loose) on the left side, although i loved it so much because it had the much more dense yellowish sharp screen
second hox had a bad coating and slight flex on the left side, also hot pixels
third HOX my current is perfect, the screen is rigid on all sides expecially left and right, but it creaks if its around 50degree hot on two out of the four corners, very very slight creaks and only happens if it test it intentionally, it has the acer white screen with visible pixel grid, so the first hox screen i miss so much
im saying don't replace for a little reason bro it will be a bumpy ride, if the screen is loose then ok, you can see it by testing for light bleed in a dark room or if its physically moving
I think my screen is perfect. I can't figure how you're suggesting I test it, but pressing along the edges with slight pressure doesn't cause any change in the screen. The pixels are all good and no flickering. I think its a yellowish screen and not the bluish one.
How do you find out what LCD brand is on your HOX?

there is a guide somewhere on how to check the LCD
anyway it sounds perfect dont get rid of it!
Hmm I don't think I'll get it changed, I love it too much . Just have to get used to the occasional/random creak/click sounds from the device.
So I'm wondering if anyone has noticed this on their device, or if I'm just going crazy. The metallic frame/band that runs along the outside of the phone appears to be raised slightly higher in relation to the glass on the right side of the phone (facing you) than on the left. If I run my finger over the screen and the edge there is a noticeable difference between the screen and the frame on the right side of the screen but not on the left, top, or bottom. I don't know if this is just some sort of imperfection, like the glass is recessed on that side or if it's just how the phone is. Anyone see something similar on their device?
I notcied it on mine too.. Just slightly though.. Not enough to notice until I pick it out. Thought I was the only one with eyesight going bad.

You are not the first person iv heard of with a problem like this so i would have it checked out by the people you got it from and get an exchange if possible..
I have noticed this too. I have a Verizon S4 and have been looking for anyone else with this problem. I don't know about you but it is driving me nuts having the unevenness feeling when I hold the phone. Please update if you try to get a replacement.
After about a few days of owning this phone, I noticed that I have a gap between the glass and the top rim of my phone. I'm really noticing it now more than before because of the amount of dust that is building up. The gap isn't on any of the other three edges. Does anybody else have this issue?
I don't have a good way to snap a picture of my phone right now but it's really similar to this guy: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z1-Compact/Z1c-Screen-Issues/td-p/704223
Not much response to his questions, which is why I'm asking.
I too have the similar issue. But, If you look close enough(at right light), you can see the dust at the bottom gap as well. This dust doesn't seem to go even after a swim/wash. And this dust thing does bother me a lot sometimes.

I don't have any dust at the bottom since there isn't a gap. The top gap is about .75mm wide. Not huge by any means but big enough to notice. I almost feel it would be better if it were even all the way around. Dust on only one edge looks more obvious to me.
So got my new Z1C today, first thing I noticed was the LED lights up the whole earpiece instead of being a poxy little pinprick that you barely see on the XT, very nice!
Problem is on mine that little piece inside that actually lights up isn't quite straight. It looks like a waterproof gauze type thing made to light up I can't tell if whole thing lights up or something underneath? I pushed a little piece of paper into the gap to see how stable it was and it looks like only attached on the right. I'm worried if I drop phone it will come completely loose and more so this gap would let water into the earpiece area?
Please have a look at your own phones and tell me when LED lit, if you look straight in is it a clean line running up to the bezel thats lit of do you see a gap on left or right between bezel and LED?
Thanks
not sure what are you asking but here is how it looks on my phone
PS: sorry for all the dirt up there
Thanks for that! You managed to get a much better picture than me. The dirt being trapped by that mesh might look bad but its keeping the inside clean I imagine. On mine you can't really see in the bad picture but there's a little gap at the top on the left like the mesh wasn't put in quite straight so it's not reaching the bezel and i'm seeing dirt already trapped UNDER the mesh @ not even 24 hours old. Don't wanna just rinse thing under the tap either in case it's not waterproof in the area without that. Gonna send it back I think and get a replacement - better safe than sorry and it's a premium phone shouldn't have anything like this out of the box.
Cheer's for the pic mate

Of course you can wash it out.
Seems a tad OCD, prepare to be laughed at in the shop, made me laugh just reading it.
