I assume from your description you're talking about the home button?
Mine feels okay. On both sides.
Edit: sorry I don't really have any advice or solution.

Hello Guys,
Just brought mine yesterday. I have this clicking sound when i tilt back the display flat in order to slide back into the phone body...Is this a mechanical problem or just normal.....Hoping to find a peace of mind...

You have found your peace (got the same click as well).
Cheers, Dela
Yeah, it's supposed to do it! I think it's an improvement over the Kaiser, as you won't try to slide it in unless you hear the click to confirm it's shut properly, so it's less likely to get damaged.
I get the same click, it sounds a bit destructive at first and had me worried!
On a similar theme, has anyone noticed the ribbon cable connecting the screen to the body is awfull exposed and vulnerable? It's safely hidden away on the Kaiser.
The ribbon cable is hidden under the black belt (movement restrictor) that you see when looking from behind of the screen
joining in the confirmation fun here. I click as well but i prefer that click
Tilt a little loose
Hello,
speaking of tilting I have another question. When the screen is tilted, it's a little "loose", it moves forward and backward for 2,3 millimeters .... only mine?
Thanks
(sorry for my bad english ...)

I have a phone OCD lol. WHen I first got mine it was kind of sqeeky but now its not. The one at the store feels normal
Lock button? You mean the power button, right?
Yeah... the power button is real squeaky... Feels like its just kept there and not fixed properly at all.. Its not at all a good thing for a phone of this status....
For me, all the buttons feel a bit... sub-standard. They feel slightly tacky to me
hey guys just a quick question, im very worried for some reasons. my buttons feel some what loose but not very loose. is this normal?
and when i press my power button in a certain direction it makes a creaking sound? im thinking my otterbox commuter case damaged it but is it okay? but its still fully responsive, and finally, when i click my home button dead center it makes a slight click noise like on an apple device. maybe not as loud but when i click the sides of the home button, no sound at all.

I had the same problem with my home button, I just cleaned it with a pin around the edges and pressed it in different directions (Like pressing left, corners, bottom) and then wiped it with a wet paper towel which fixed my problem, its probably just dust build up?
If not you probably have to replace the buttons just get them from eBay.

No sorry I dont
My nexus 7 (2013) is a few weeks old now and ever other tap on the screen seems to make this creaking noise like the screen is moving. And in the top left corner the screen seems loose. Will a full body case stop this? And yes, this is a 2013 model, I originally returned my old nexus 7 2012 model for an iPad mini because the screen was coming off. I am horrified that this may be the case on this newer model... If anyone has experienced this I would appreciate your feedback. Also, I have realised that when I pick it up off my table the back case creaks as well. It seems I have a dud tablet I presume
Mine was great out of the box, now it creaks very loudly on the top left, top right is starting to develop a creak also. Case doesn't help. I think you'd need to disassemble and add adhesive under the screen or something lol

Up to u I guess, I just use the nexus upside down, so the creaky corner is on the bottom right where I'd never touch it.
I use gravity box and xposed framework to enable the screen rotation.
mine creaks at the bottom around the usb port. this with the dodgy touch screen means i might return it.
Mine started to creak also... I guess that's what you get for paying under $300 for a tablet with nice specs - - they make it up with shoddy build quality.

so sad
Apart from a bit of dust under the screen and a few dead pixels and the creak 's fine. So I'll live with it
Yeah I'll live with it too, but I'm not supporting Asus ever again, after having the same problem with gen 1...
i hve it nearly 3 months, but so far no such prob

I believe it is if you claim it as a loose screen!
I got my note 4 days ago. At first everything was ok, but yesterday I noticed my device is terribly creaking. Almost every time I touch the back it sounds like the plastic would break a little bit (Although I don't think it would actually break).
Do you have the same issues? Or should I sent it back and get a new one, since it's really annoying me...?
Thank you )
Nope.

Mine creaks a little in the bottom right corner. Everything else is fine. I think it's the plastic back giving a bit. I had this on the Nexus 10 as well.
Creaking is for Hollween not for my Tablet!

Yes, When I held the tablet with my left hand to touch the screen with my right it creaked like a rock band with bad music! Geeish.....the silver chrome or whatever the material is wasn't tight and it just bend. I returned it right away. I really didn't want to return it. However, I paid full price and not second hand money so I expect the performance to be right, that means no noise. When listening to music or watching a movie it seems as if someone was moving around and that can be pretty annoying. I tried holding it different ways with no change. So back it went. Let Samsung sell. This I know imagine you trying to sell it to the next person, what do you think they might say and how much will the value go down?
Doc

Yes, As soon as I opened the package, I noticed the bottom right hand corner was creaking an popping. It is not like I was looking for it. That made me investigate if the rest of the trim was doing the same. If you put your mind into into it, you can get some creaking from other ends of the trim but nothing like the bottom right hand corner. Every time I pick it up, it is annoying me so much that I feel I should take it back. I am not sure the guys at PCWorld would accept this as a reason for full money back or replacement claim. I do like the tablet, but do not want a noisy plastic in my hands.
Is this enough of a reason to ask for a replacement?

Sadly I dont think it is (pure guess so dont take my word for it) BUT I can 100% say that your Tablet will have a little bit of lightbleed along the bottom and sides....this alone is a good enough reason for them to accept and exchange - Good luck.

Hi,
Could you please elaborate on the light bleed issue. How do you determine if you have a light bleed and what is the significance of it.

Put screen britghness to 100% and open this http://www.net-tracker.net/android/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/black_bg_1024x768.png, make sure it covers the entire screen inc notifications part and then switch off your lights in your room and you will then see light bleed, Its nothing major and common on LCD'S but it is a valid reason for a return/exchange.
I had lightbleeding on my first note but I found it to be acceptable however on my 2nd tablet I found the bleeding to be excessive and off putting so I got a refund from John Lewis,
Anyways this thread should give you an idea too - best of luck :good: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2554094

Got mine 2 weeks ago, and it sounds like a bowl of snap, crackel, and pop, sitting on bubble wrap.
If i look at it wrong, it makes noises. I might take it back and have them look at it... see if that warrants an exchange.

If your one is not creaking then this definitely should be a rightful exchange claim for all those unfortunate to pick up badly put together tablets.
I am even considering getting my money back and going the Apple way. Excellent build quality, and I know that because I got some for the kids.
yeah maybe idk. Sammy is also known for build issues lately so you have to really inspect before you take home. The Note 3 home button is all wonky and wobbly on a lot of units.

Sorry for the question, but what is "idk" in your post?
Having a creaking case, would that get worse in terms of speading all around the tablet's trim?
Any experiences but no guesses please!

"IDK" means "I Dont Know".
I guess if the creaking was coming from say a loose glass to the digitizer i think it could be something that spreads. Since if the glass isn't glued down well enough i could see slight dust getting in there and causing more separation over time. I doubt this is the case as you'd see bubbling at the edges if that was happening.
