Hey guys, my T-mobile Touch Pro 2 creaks whenever I press down on the bottom corner with the end call button. Even when I slide the screen out and squeeze that corner it makes the noise. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I don't think you can expect anyone to respond with a fix such as a registry edit for your problem. Best to return it for an exchange if possible.
mine does the same, i always assumed it was just the nature of the hardware..
I noticed this on my brothers tmobile touch pro 2. And his is less than 20 days old.
But my tmobile touch pro 2 does not do this.
When I was checking his it did the cracking noise and did not feel correct.
Are you going to return yours and how long does it typically take to process an exchange. Can I just walk into a tmoible store to do it?
mine does too. its more of a feel than a sound. it doesnt appear to be hurting anything.
Mine too. Hadn't really considered it as a reason for repair until now
That sound comes from your battery cover. I have the same problem with mine as well. It's because the battery cover is not sitting plush against the innards of the phone.
Simple fix.
1) Cut a piece of paper about 4 inches long and 3/4 of an inch wide.
2) Make 2 folds... one from the left and one from the right
3) Place it on the battery and put the battery cover back on. Make sure you place it exactly as shown in the picture to avoid breaking any of the plastic locking extensions!
Problem Solved!

Mine did the same (1 month old) , however with time the sound disappeared, if you try and slide the keyboard and hold the lower right corner of the screen then squeeze gently with both fingers you will hear the sound..... not sure if its considered a faulty thing, but I am fine with it...

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.
Hello,
i bought myself a Pro 2 about 2 months ago. I'm very happy with the phone, but I noticed the upper part of the phone is quite wobbly. When I press the screen I can feel the whole upper part move down. It's only about 1 or 2 mm, but it's quite an unpleasant feeling. In the upper right corner of the screen (where the VGA camera is located) I can feel and hear a little click when I press the screen in that corner. The strange thing is, my dad bought the same phone last week, and his Pro 2 feels a lot more tight! So my question is, does anybody have the same problem, or should I send it back to HTC?
I already contacted HTC by mail, and they said I had to call to make an arrangement. Has HTC got a good service reputation? Or is there a chance I get a worse phone than I have now...?
grtz
Yep, "some" people have the same issue.
ok soo i dropped my Tilt 2 from a standing point (which is about 5 and a half feet since im 5'9) with the phones keyboard open and screens tilted, whats funny is that no battery fell out or anything, it just shuts off, i had to turn it back on.
when i shaked the phone i heard a slight rattle and i reckon its from the Flex Cable from the LCD screen, the rattle stops when i have my Tilt 2s keyboard open, but when i tilt the screen i can hear it slightly...is that normal?
also what is going to aggravate me for the rest of the time im going to own this phone is that when im using the phone's software keyboard on portrait at say like a 15 degree angle i can hear taps which is quite annoying but if i hold it at a 45 degree angle it stops, i turned the phone to the side i notice a gap, not a big one and not really noticeable but id say its roughly .5mm thick, i push the screen down and the gap gets smaller, is normal as well?
plz let me know thnx a lot
short answer.... no.... not normal. You knocked something loose inside hence the rattle, WHICH you probably already knew The gap, also not normal. Well wait.. I should correct myself. This is all probably totally normal for people who have dropped their phone. You're lucky you didn't crack your screen or do more damage and the phone's still usable!

hmm, well i talked to one Tilt 2 owner and he said he has that rattle and he hasnt dropped it? but like i mentioned, the rattle must be coming from that Flex cable that goes between the motherboard and the LCD screen....
No rattle and no gap on mine, but I've only had it 5 days. Give me time.
I have rattle too, but i think its the G-Sensor !

i did a couple of searches on PPC and some say its a normal thing especially in the tilted position? http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=87452 at least im not the only one! i just have OCD xD
heres a video of the screen problem im having
but its not as worse as his but you guys get the point
I just dropped my phone yesterday with keyboard out and tilted and I got a similar problem to this. My screen only has a gap when I pull it up, which I wasn't able to do before, but the screen slide is now about 1 or 2 cm's to the left causing it not to line up with the keyboard slide. Somewhat aggravating, but totally unnoticable unless your holding the phone. I don't get any rattle though...

hmm
well if i were to dismantle the phone and repair the little bridge that goes across the back of the LCD screen would that solve the issue? because it seems when i push on it it seems to fill a gap but idk if thats what causing the whole screen and kb issue but im going to do it when i have the chance
I have a tilt and mines exacly like the one in the video with the vary small gap and the screen wobble, I always assumed it was normal, mine dosent rattle though
that little gap and the screen wobble.
it just because is got movable parts, look at the screen hinges if i can call them that.
its the reason i didnt want to get mine, ive always chose candy bar phones so i dont worry about that.
but i did get me a tilt 2 and have dropped it too, i also think my wobbly screen started after i dropped it, but ive had it a year, since it first came out. the only thing i hate reall bad about this phone it the lack of a headphone jack I HATE THAT WITH A PASSION.
Couple questions. Can anyone move their home button at all vertically? Mine does slightly only on the left side. Also if I just barely push/click it on the very right corner of the button I can make it click without a response however if I push it with normal force on the right it responds like normal. I can't do this on the very left side/corner. That side is very sensitive and if I barely touch it it responds. The feel/sound is a little different when I push the right side too. It's definitely a tighter fit on that side.
I'm wondering if I should go through the hassle of trying to get a replacement because of this. My s6 had a bad wobbly loose home button and it was annoying. I ordered my phone through Verizon customer service through an upgrade. If I want them to send me a new one they have to charge me $200 again and then when I send one back I have to wait 10 days for a refund.. And the closest Verizon store is almost 2 hours away
I'm also hesitant to swap bcuz first charge on this one and I'm already getting over 6 hours on screen time and I haven't even disabled any bloatedware yet. It however does have the gap/light leak all around but apparently majority of them have that. Advice? What would you do in my position? Thanks guys... Wish I could just get a perfect device for once.
Maybe you're over thinking it lol mine sometimes clicks, sometimes doesn't, but never bothers me. But to answer your question on the vertical movement..the whole button has a slight vertical movement for me when I try and rock it lightly.

I think so too bro. I'm having Verizon mail me another one though and then I'll compare and pick. Had to drop another 200 bucks to get them to send another one lmao will refund though when they get one back...
It's very rare you find a galaxy phone with a perfect home button...
My recalled note was completely perfect, but the home-button on my new note often clips the glass on the left side. It's pretty annoying but I'm not sure if it's anything to return it for. The screen protector was also applied badly, completely unaligned and bubbly - seams quality went down after the recall.
Seems like every Galaxy device on this forum has a person who overly analyzes the behavior and mechanical characteristics of the home button....smh

Okay so Verizon granted me an early upgrade for the note 7. I had to send them my s6 and spent $180. The first note 7 that I had shipped to me had an annoying home button that wouldn't register clicks on the right side. I noticed this the first day I got the phone and called them. They told me I would have to spend $180 again for them to send me another new note 7 and it'd be refunded to me when they recieved one of the note 7's back. I wasn't too thrilled about this however I did it anyway.
I've now had the new note 7 since the 24th(i think) and I believe my 14 days is up. Today I noticed that I can make my home button wiggle very slightly vertically on the left side, middle, and right side. The left side being slightly easier. I'm guessing it's because there is a very slight gap between the top of the home button and the glass. I can actually make it slightly crooked by either pushing up the right or left side however when I push the middle of the home button down or up everything is lined up perfectly with the gap being the same size across the top.
I don't know if this is a problem or if my ocd is getting the better of me. Other than this the phone is perfect and the home button registers clicks perfectly even if I barely push the very right or left corner. If I do decide I want to swap, I guess I can't get them to send me a new one anymore and I'd have to do a warranty replacement or something? I'm just not sure it's worth it. I really don't want to have to go through the stress of getting another new replacement worried about some other flaw. I might be ultra sensitive to home button issues because my s6 had the most wobbly piece of crap button ever.
Anyways.... Let me know what you guys think of my situation... I appreciate it.
