It`s for a wrist strap, the hole next to the headphone socket is for the Noise cancellation microphone.

how does the wrist strap fit to it then? coz they normally loop back on themselves to keep attatched to the phone but i cant see the bar it wud loop round. or is it a lock in type? thanks for the replys

You put the strap though the hole with the back off the phone and the strap loops over a pin and the back cover stops the strap pulling out.
The picture below is from the user manual.

[Q] Bottom part of dispay bends when pressed.

Part of the screen, marked out on attached picture, bends under pressure. One guy said it's mounted on 2-side duct tape, and glue is often too weak to hold it. It drives me crazy, is there any easy way to attach it firmly? Maybe superglue via syringe? I googled some photos of atrix, and this problem is seen on many of them. Battery cover have nothing to do with this, something is attached lousy inside the main part of the phone. Sorry for my terrible english .

Please help me. This thing is driving me crazy.
Buy some super glue. They sell many different types at your local store. Next question!

Really harmful advice, it would be hard to detach glued parts if needed. Also you will have to disassemble phone to glue it, superglue will dry out in syringe before you use it. Please don't give advices if you don't know nothing about subject, it can possibly cause harm. Message counter is not that important.
I'll try some simple glue via syringe and report here.

Creaking sound near Volume Rocker

Finally swapped back to Android yesterday and bought the S3. After playing with it for a bit I noticed a very loud creak on the back of the phone where the volume rocker is. Took off the back plate and it's actually the phone making this noise when I press in the area highlighted with or without the back plate on. I took it back to Verizon and the associate there pulled out another phone to show it was normal and just wanted to see how true this was. Searched around and couldn't find much on here so sorry if this has been asked. Here's a picture to show the area in question.

Creaking? I think your phone was built on top of an ancient burial ground.....

I don't have any creaking sound on my Sprint SGS 3

Same thing on mine...not a big deal but I notice it, it's only volume up for me.
I don't have any creaking there, but there is definitely some form of structural weakness in the area that you circled in your image, OP.

Squeaking Battery Cover

Does anyone have a problem with squeaking cover ? It makes sounds when I press the power button (and around it) and it also happens when I press the cover in indicated area (on the opposite side). Like the cover is loose in this general area or something. I've checked with my firends "note 2" but he doesn't have this problem.
Can I somehow repair it ?

try to buy another backcover oO
This seems to be a common problem, but mine was at the lower part of the device, on both sides.
I added some painters tape inside where the back cover snaps to the phone and now it is fine. No more squeaking which was very annoying.
No problems but with the case you will not have these problems. I find some backcover on aliexpress for just 3€.

Mine squeaks like its two years old and has been stamped on by a small child. It's annoying. A very thin smear of blu tack on the sides works well.
Did anyone solve this issues by using an alternative back cover? I was wondering if this was caused by a problem in the cover or the device itself. . .

Appalachian Engineering a Fix for a Torn Moto360 Sport band

Like so many folk, the band on my Moto360 Sport tore. Pain in the ass. I got it fixed/replaced once, but of course, it tore again. No such luck the second time around. But I love my watch. Its not perfect, but I love it. So with traditional fixes out the window, I moved to non-traditional fixes. I believe that the pics below illustrate an elegant solution:

interesting. My strap just broke out of warranty. I was looking for a silicone glue but even for a tiny amount it would cost 20$ for something thats a 50/50 fix.
I cant beleive Moto designed something like this, its the first thing I said when I recieved it as a gift "what happens when the strap breaks?"
Im going though different repair mods in my head. Im debating if I can cut out a space in the the rubber the size and shape of a regular pinned ban and then use either a pin or long thin screw to hold it in.
nice job but where did you get that little metal piece an does it ding into your arm?

Zepp OS and how to access it?

Zepp OS is now more then 6 months available and i was wondering if there was someone who checked it out for any accessibility into it.
Can it be hacked? Is there a bootloader? Can we do fun stuff with it?
I have the T-Rex 2 and i noticed something funny. Let me show you a picture of it

The golden plate which has AMAZFIT on it can be unscrewed by the two screws on top of it. And i saw something behind it which looks like a port for something. So i was wondering, could this be a insert for a datacable so we can do some nice stuff with it?
Anyone has an idea? Oh, for the record, i didn't unscrew mine but i could see a black square with 4 or 6 holes. It has no function at all, but to be honest, the watch is waterproof so i don't have my hopes on it. But who knows. Anyone?
Ok, i guess nobody has looked into it haha. Time to get a screwdriver then and see what i can do.
There must be a way how they get Zepp OS on the watch.
Hi, T-Rex 2 watches has Zepp OS from factory.
https://docs.zepp.com/docs/reference/related-resources/device-list/
I have one myself, and am just as curious.
The holes behind the "AMAZFIT" plate have 2 functions.
Behind it are the buzzer and the pressure sensor.
Just try it : Put the Watch on the Barrometer App and blow on it, you will see the pressure rise.
