Creaky - Motorola Photon 4G

Hey, just wondering if anyone else's MoPho kind of "creaks," esp. the battery cover, or if its just mine. Thanks.

Yeah especially on the bottom right side.

Mine does bottom center but everywhere else is tight. Only "issue" I've had.

Thanks, just wanted to make sure mine wasnt the only one.

Mine creaked so I complained to Moto customer service and they sent me a brand new back door free. Installed it and the creak is gone. Its an easy fix!

Yep same here... and did same as above. Got on Motorola support site, spent 5 minutes on their chat support, few days later had a free back cover. Squeak is gone now. Looks identical. Not sure what's different but it works! No reason not to try it.

This ^ is why I love XDA.

No creak here....but now I know what to do if it starts lol!

Mine did for a while, but after a few times of removing and replacing the back cover, it stopped.

You're not alone, but I don't know what's going on in that thread because I'm not experiencing it.
Funny. I acctually looked at that thread but my xda premium crap app didn't display the picture so I thought it was about something else. Thanks for the link.

Broken screen

Ywah, i did it. Dropped and cracked, still works great. Read some about changing glass. Anyone at all have any luck with this?

Hehe try youtube. I saw some really good repair view there. The hardest part I think will be separating the glass and lcd. It has been suggested the best way to do it is to replace both at the same time.

Li-ion battery safety failed, probably while charging, got too hot, entered a runaway state and... this.

Sorry forgot about this thread lol... It was a BRAND NEW note that asurion sent me the week before christmas. It worked fine and I'm 98% sure it was the new stock battery as well. Though I normally use ankers but I figured fresh battery was cool. Luckilly that Friday night I had been too tired and fell asleep without charging it or this would have happened while I was asleep. Saturday morning I put it on the charger next to my bed around 730ish and it was at ~40% . Me and my daughter were laying in the bed watching spongebob when I heard a hissing noise, and I looked over to see steam shooting from my battery like the old pipes in movies . I took my daughter out of the room and heard a little pop then when I looked in the room my phone was on fire... Literrally burst into flames.... God is good. Could been A LOT worse. Still waiting to hear from Samsung.

Honestly, I'm not sure how you broke it. My dna is a tank. You just got unlucky.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Mine broke as well from a similar " light drop". Actually caught it on my boot, then it landed on the lower left corner. Screen shattered out from there. Everything works just fine on mine, so I'm leaving it as is for now as a reminder.

Mine shattered too. Fell out of my pocket onto concrete face first.

For those of you with the white notes

So I think it's been about a year since I remember those threads popping up with white note users seeing pressure cracks around their screen. I was one of them and just unfortunately accepted it. I figured a little crack was no big deal.
But.. how many do you have now?
I'm at 16.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
9 and top right corner fell out
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
The left side as you look at screen had three cracks EXACTLY Same place as my girlfriend white note. Literally.

No pictures? I have a black one and want to see what you guys are talking about.
None on my white note... I guess I got lucky
None on mine either....
I'm up to 9 cracks on my white Note. This is the 2nd one too.
I've had an otter box on my white note since I got it went to a bar out in Oakland and dropped it down an impressive flight of stairs. I now have a nice two inch crack from speaker to front camara. Phone still works like a champ though.

Can someone post a picture? What are you guys talking about? Just curious

If you don't notice them on yours then not worth looking for. Once you see them you can't un-see them lol.
No cracks on my white note screen but there are 2 cracks on the white plastic around the screen. One buy the volume keys and one by the head phone jack.

I have plenty of those haha. Mind you I bought my Note used and it was not the prettiest the screen even moves if you pinch the top corner! I do not abuse phones, my S2X is mint, but the price was right for the Note. Still love it

Funny, I only have one Crack and it's the same exact spot as the picture above.
