Rear case imperfection? - Desire General

Has anyone here noticed a slight hump on the rear case it location is central on the spine about 2 thirds of the way down. It is a above a recess on the inside of the case which accommodates the plastic retaining lug for the SIM card. Its very minor, I only noticed it when I was rubbing my finger over the case, I just wanted to check with other people to eliminate the possibility its a defect on mine.
Other than this its the best smart-phone I have ever used, well worth the wait as I am a Handtec customer.
Thanks for checking

Have it too, but it is really difficult to spot.
I cannot see it with my eyes, basically only feel and you have to be very careful to notice it even then.

I can't feel or see this if it is there.

only found it because you made me search for it

wish i didnt read this thread. now im going to look for it, find it, and be displeased by it.

Not on mine...

i noticed it the other day as well

it is there but I don`t care.

neither do I, as other people have said it very very minor.
It's a great handset I'm very happy with it and will be more happy when the official screen protectors are available.

if it wasn't there the cover would have to be a couple of mm thicker to accommodate the recess on the inside to clear the plastic lug. I think, on reflection, that this was a good idea on HTCs part.

Maybe you have particularly fat SIM cards?

Does your keyboard extend 0.25mm or so to the right of the display?

The bottom part of my VZW TP2 (the part of the keyboard) seems to stick out ever so slightly to the right of the display portion. This is more noticeable toward the top of the device, leading me to believe that my device is slightly crooked (even if it isn't noticeable without feeling the sides of the device). Even though no functionality is lost, it still does bother me, because I always notice the asymmetry.
It's about 0.25mm or so to the right.
Are your devices like this too? The keyboard part slightly to the right of the display part of the TP2? I did drop my TP2 on the ground rather hard, but other than a couple of scratches (not on the screen, thank heavens), it works fine. Perhaps the drop caused this?
I'm hoping that I can somehow lead Verizon to believe this is a hardware defect and get a new one in exchange >_>
Are you a troll?
Seriously, 0.25mm?
I'm dead serious. It feels uncomfortable and I'm a bit OCD about this kind of stuff.

Can someone just feel their TP2 and tell me ;_; If I wanted to troll, I'd make a more idiotic topic.

Ah thanks, wouldn't have thought about describing the problem or explaining it with the word "flush." Much appreciated.
My Tmobile TP2 is the same way, Doesn't bother me.

Replacement battery door?

Does anyone know of a way to get a replacement battery door for a reasonable price?
I just got this phone a little over a month ago, and already the battery door doesn't fit anymore.

It seems like it's too big for the phone. I pop in one side, and the other side pops out. It's impossible to snap all the pins in at the same time. I have no idea how it got this way.
I called samsung and the service rep told me that the battery door is the only thing that is not covered by warranty.
No offense, but it looks like you're not inserting the bottom end of the door first. That's the part sticking out in that picture. It slides in first, then snap the rest in place

I wish it was me just being stupid. I've spent a good half an hour trying to maneuver it into place. No matter what I do, I can't get all the pegs to snap into place.
I'd like to add that I called the genuine Samsung accessory department, and the ditsy girl on the phone said she has never heard of a gsm galaxy nexus, and she only had the Sprint and Verizon one in her computers. Those back covers are only $9, but unfortunately don't fit my GSM version.

Just don't get the ones with the metallic look. They may look pretty, but they have the same fit up problem, AND also weaken the radio. I had a lot of trouble getting a GPS lock while using those, and my cellphone reception was weaker too.
you probably forced the cover on also not putting it on properly, causing the connectors to wear out.

Car sticky pads and One?

Ok I found out a very nice way to hold my One in my car,though I dunno if someone tried it with the One which is the first Android phone to be in aluminum,and I wonder if we can use it horizontally

I have something like that in my car, however I always have a plastic case on and it sticks on there no problem, issues with this pad is that over time dust will gather and you will have to wash it, but when you do it becomes sticky again.
I don't know if I can trust this pad to hold my phone well. What if I suddenly hit the brakes hard and the device falls on its face and breaks or like right out of the window? Maybe I am just too paranoid. Ha ha!
i found mine lost stick way too quick, too much hassle to repeatedly wash. I turfed it.
I think this pads have magnetic + rubber coating so that it catch phones,I have read in the comments that phones are like glued to the pad!
I hope so because our Lebanese roads are very bumpy

If you can snag some, look into Pugoo. Fully washable, quite strong, and easy to remove.
I something similar to this for my S3 and it worked very well in keeping it in place; however, when I switched to my HTC One it no longer sticks well at all, probably because of the aluminum casing. I always use my phone without a case and was never worried about my S3 unsticking, but I wouldn't use it with my HTC One unless it was in a plastic case.

MyBat Hardshell Case?

Anyone have any experience with one?
I think they look pretty good.

I just ordered one. It seems like a decent alternative while we wait to see if the LG hardshell case ever materializes.
I've had mybat screen protectors before for my other phone, and honestly they seem like another generic brand to me.

This case is a piece of **** (POS).
Doesn't fit the phone and falls apart.

Two major problems:
1. It's a snap case which takes the absolute least amount of force possible to unsnap. It was sold as a hardshell case... not a snap together pos case.
2. It will not "snap together" with my glass screen protector. (I have not tried to install the case without it).

Quick Photos... iPulse Journal S8+ Case

Ok, so I picked up the iPulse case on Amazon. Most of the time my phone is bare or with a non-flip case but when I travel or have a business meeting, I dress it up a bit and I can leave my wallet at home. I really hate PU Leather and wanted something that acted like a stand too. Am I asking too much? Yes... but I did find ALMOST everything I wanted in this case.
The case holds up to 3 cards (or 3 cards and a license like I did). The feel is totally premium.
The case that holds the phone is surprisingly soft and the cut outs are perfect. Buttons on the left are easy to get to. There is enough room in the middle to get to them.
I have 2 gripes. One, the pocket is supposed to hold paper cash BUT its just barely small. As a result, its kinda useless. The other is that I wish the corners were rounded more because it feels a little bulky and that would help tons. It is totally worth the price though. Link to it is here.
