Screen lifting? - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else have the issue with their screen lifting? I noticed that it is lifting along the right side of the screen where the front facing camera is down to search button. I've never dropped my phone and although the screen still works, it's kind of annoying.

Should I return my TBolt and get another one?

I just spent hours setting up all my apps, widgets, media, everything. Now I notice when the capacitive buttons are lit I have two tiny pinhole sized light leaks under the buttons at the bottom edge of the screen....grrrrr! Not very noticeable but freaking lame. Take it back?

Same thing.
Mine isn't that noticable unless ur in the perfect spot looking at the phone from the reverse angle, figured that never happens anyway. For the user you never see it so, /shrug.
Seems like it might be a common problem though if yours is similar.
If your talking about when you hold the phone vertical and look straight down the edge of the screen. I have them too.

I'm having the same problem, but like you wrote it's not noticeable unless you are looking at it from an angle. For now I'll live with it but if it gets any worse I'm taking it back to Verizon.
All of them are like that, so if that is your only complaint, no don't return it.
I can't find any light leaks on mine...
Maybe I'm lucky or I just don't see it.
The EVO had the same issue, 1st builds of anything are gonna have issues

I notice that too, but I think that is normal. My light leaks are actually at the very bottom of the phone, in the black area beneath the buttons. You can see them when holding the phone normally, not upside down or at an angle.

Thats where is was talking about. Im not noticing them just looking at the phone regularly only at a downward angle.
Yeah, I noticed it too. I then looked at my Dinc and it had the same problem. Never noticed it before and I've had that since July. Haha

i dont see it but that wouldnt bother me long as the phone works im fine .. shoot i already have this ugly bulky extended battery but hey if it getts me better phone time cool
Noticed this too when using phone in a darker environment. There's light bleeding through between the bottom glass and the case near the back button when viewing at about 65 degree.

Finger tip dragging issue?

Anyone else have difficulties with using your fingertip to drag on the screen? Seems to always miss a spot and drop icons. Thumb works no problem.
Don't recall this happening before the update.
Just tried it and I didn't get any problems; might be due to the dropped signal because of the thickness of the skin there.... but it could be from the update; I haven't had any LCD problems yet.

I downloaded a touch test app, it definitely loses touch signal at various parts of the screen, happens on both of my Atrix phones. Pressing with my thumb is better but still not perfect. Happened after the latest update.
I hate noticed if I used my fingertip to drag/scroll and if my fingernail touches, it registers a press. Didn't happen before the update, but I'll just have to get used to it.

[Q] Screen making clicking noise

Has anybody noticed a clicking noise...maybe like the screen adhesive or whatnot coming off of the case? The location for me is top right corner right above the right speaker. I don't know if it is the case or the screen but I definitely feel some movement....This along with my previous question of not being able to click on certain pop ups...maybe I have a defective unit?
I have a similar issue near my left speaker. However, it is only an issue if I press too hard. My guess is that its difficult to get a perfect glue job on a unit this thin.

Screen on while talking

Anyone have any issues with the screen staying on while talking? I've noticed it kinda acts a little strange. Sometimes it stays on the whole call unless I hit the power button. Sometimes it stays on while in speaker and shuts off after I leave speaker. It been kinda random.

same problem here. i've just gotten used to turning it off with the power button
i was having the same issues and someone asked me if i had a screen protector, well , i did and decided to cut the corner where the sensor is and no more issues, if you got a protector you might be having it cus of it.
BTW, thanks donatom3, since you were the person who asked me if i had a protector and only after that i decided to cut a corner of it and solved my issue ..
i have a zagg hd from bestbuy...

Upper left screen gets glitchy

Hi guys.
when i am on a landscape mode only, a big square appears every 2-10 seconds on the left upper side of the device (left to the LG logo)...
is it a software or a hardware issue?
Thanks!
Same issue here. No clue.

anyone else have this issue?
that's really strange.
I too am having the issue. Will probably use this to justify trading for another phone within my 45 day Best Buy silver premier return window. I like the phone but this issue and how my phone just shuts offs needing me to hold the power button to reset twice a week is getting annoying. I also noticed the back is easily scratched. Always run my screens naked and never had a scratch since my Diamond Touch so figured the back would fare as well as screens. Picked up three noticeable scratches on back within a week.

Is there a reason for these phones turning off like that? It happens to me a bit too, and I have to hold the power button for a bit to get it to restart.
@OP: No, I do not notice this issue. Maybe I'm just not looking in the right area though..
I think it may be related to heat. The area on mine sort of stretches and distorts the image in a nice rectangular area. If you look at the teardown, it is where the ram is located along with processor underneath. Since it happens to everyone in the same spot, I doubt it's a defect in the screen but a symptom of the heat. Can't be a harbinger of good things.
