I think ill wing it and buy another models vibrator off ebay. Thanks though.
You might get lucky and actually find an entire Rezound for parts for cheap if you look around. People get rid of these things all the time for broken screens or whatever else.

+1. Same here. Popped it out to fix screen issues one too many times and red wire is now loose.
Just found this and ordered one. Will report back whether it works. Willing to take a $7.75 (incl. shipping) chance, since most of the "as is" and/or "for parts" rezounds are desparately overpriced you-know-where. Note also, Repairs Universe does *not* carry this vibrate motor.

Nope, not yet. I did, however, secure an Evo 3D motor elsewhere and installed it today. Works just fine.
There are others still there. Here's what my search results revealed just today.
I think the units with the white connectors that match the Rezound connectors are probably fairly stock. I'm getting ready to sell the Rezound I replaced it in (bad proximity sensor; already have a replacement unit), but if I still have it when this other one arrives from overseas, I'll give it a whirl (unless I can tell from looking at it that it's the same thing), and report back.
Anything on this could help me too. It seems mine has malfunctioning vibrator too. I haven't noticed this until weekend, I had stock and not having so much calls so I can't say if it vibrates good, I flashed Cyanogenmod and notice the bug, in stock it doesn't vibrate and I'm thinking this is hardware related so your info will be valuable

Thanks for your answer hgoldner, a friend and I must buy some motors for a couple of Rezound that need one, in the link of ebay you provide in your post of May 7th seems like HD 2 vibrator fits too. We'll try and get back to this thread to let you guys know which one works for us
Sorry for the super late reply. Ended up getting a s3 and put the rezound in the draw. Just went and revived it and fixed the screen and got a vibrator motor for it from ebay. It seems like almost all htc motors work. I got an EVO 3d one and it works like a charm.

May take you up on that - my motor is almost completely dead. I see where it is when the back cover is off - is it just a matter of removing the four small screws on the red shield to get to the motor?

It's 6 screws, but yes, that's it. It's easily visible once you remove that plastic plate. Using a small flathead screw-driver you can pull the connector from the port, and the motor itself lifts easily out of the mount. Then all you do is plug in the replacement motor and slip it into position and you should be good to go.
We finally bought the replacement from etradesupply. This part seems to get easy damaged so I recommend every Rezound owner to get one replacement if he/she wants to have the Rezound for a couple of years
I gotta get a replacement also. I order one from Totobay also.
Stupid question from not a very handy guy, what screw driver do I need to open the back from the rezound?
thanks

I was able to successfully install the vibrator I got from Tatabay (took about a month to arrive from china). It fit fine but the attached cable is longer than the Rezound one which you must have to loop around. The main difference is tough that the weighted metal part that spins is actually smaller than the original and therefore the vibration it produces is more high pitched than the original. Not a huge deal but just thought I'll let you guys know that it's not exactly the same.

I wanted to see if anyone had noticed the back cover being creaky when you lightly pressure it about one inch below the camera on left side? It squeaks pretty noticeably when you squeeze it. Had the phone since 21st but I just noticed after a long phone call. It seems solid elsewhere other than there. Or is it just me being paranoid, since I came from a Droid X and that thing was built like a tank? I really like the phone, so don't want to go exchange if this is expected with polycarbonate builds. Thanks.
Not here. Solid as a rock and no creaking.

Well, I tried to exchange it today with no luck. At the store in my town the dude said they all do it. I said no way. I said bring out a new one and prove it. They couldn't replicate the creaking so the next excuse was that my phone was a corporate line and I wasn't authorized to change device id. I was like you're kidding me? And he try to sell a case so I could cover the noise. Not making this up!! I'll call our corporate rep on Monday and facilitate the exchange thru them. But it is stupid when you have a corporate store in town and they are utterly useless in costumer service.
When I press on my phone in the exact spot you mention it clicks. This is the first time it's happened. I figured it that if I press on it on a table it doesn't click, only if I hold it in my hand, so it has to do with the flex between my fingers. It sounds like it's the trim around the camera lens. I'm not worried.

Nope and I am sure others haven't as well that squeak. My first DNA did not, but I got the red employee edition and for the first two days it was fine then squeaked like it was 100 years old. HTC is known for this, there was a big thread on the HTC Incredible on androidforums that talked about the squeaky back, my wife's One X squeaked as well. Also there is a thread on the GS3 about the same problem, it happens with a lot of electronics even if they are taken good care of.
It is really just like any other device, some will have a flawless device others will have some problems. I baby my phone more than most others and unfortunately this time I was one with a squeaky back.

I learned that, then another store in town restored my faith. Long story short I had to return the first exchanged phone due to dust specs in between the glass and lcd. I've never seen something like it so I took to a store in town and they exchanged for another with no apparent defects. Got lucky on this one as it is perfect so far. Needless to say, I like the phone and I'm happy that the store made it right, but I'm disappointed with quality of HTC. To have to go thru three phones is annoying and time consuming. Doubt will get another phone from them in future.
The manager at store was fantastically helpful, and basically said that HTC had this issue with his previous phone. No matter what he did the cover would make noise. I've never opened the DNA but is seems to me that they are not setting the phones correctly on "frame" because even the second one had creaking on the lower right corner. So for the other posters, I do not know of any way of fixing or if it can be fixed at all. I know that it was annoying every time I picked up phone. As with anything else, there are disadvantages of being first adapters
nice nice..yeah a lot of people with nexus 7's had this same squeek problem too.
Hey guys. I just wanted you all to know that of the three options: Nokia Charging Pillow, plate, or stand. It's all about the stand! I've purchased all three and I wish I would have purchased the stand FIRST! I didn't know about it until after I purchased the pillow and the plate. The plate sucks because you have to make sure the phone is centered at all times, otherwise your phone doesn't charge or over heats or both. I've had bad experiences going to sleep and waking up to a beeping 120 degree phone. The pillow sucks because well for me it was pointless. It didnt help me in any way, I just took the plate out of the pillow and then it became a plate, which I just finished explaining. The pillow itself is a waste of money. The stand is perfect, you don't have to worry about your phone being centered because once its put on the stand it is centered. Anyways. To me, the plate and the pillow were mistakes. They should have only created the stand in the first place. Its perfect! I bought it from AT&T on employer discount for around $50, I think regular price its about the same as the others at about $65.
I got the stand used through Amazon and it does work pretty well. As others have mentioned though the NFC while working isn't in the best spot, and the phone can't be set horizontally either to watch videos or something. I'm sure there will be better ones down the line when wireless charging catches on.
Can you post a link to the stand, I see a ton when I google.

Well, you can't set the phone down horizontally and watch movies on any of the 3 can you? I just think that out of the 3 this one beats the other 2 hands down. And I think because it is always centered it charges slightly faster too. With the plate I am always wondering if its sitting on it correctly. Which is pretty annoying, especially if i pick it up at night when im in bed and i try to center it again in the dark...
Hopefully Verizon carries this thing online soon so I can use my discount. Otherwise it is fairly expensive especially since I plan to buy 2 or 3.
I also have the stand and agree it is the best option. You actually can get it to play and charge while horizontal if you don't mind propping it up on something. I have not been able to get the NFC to even activate and yes, I have it turned on in the settings. Maybe I am touching with the wrong spot on the phone. Can anyone discuss how this works?

AT&T had it last week and I bought one with my employee discount for $51.75 which is a lot better than $69. I tried to buy another one yesterday but it was out of stock. When it's back in stock I'll see if I can work something out with anyone that wants one. I could just buy it and have it shipped straight to you instead of myself. Paypal transaction or something. Anyone interested in something like that PM me

The NFC chip in the phone is behind the HTC logo, but it won't activate since the tag in the charging stand is for Windows Phone. You'll have to download an app called NFC Retagger to set the tag to launch an app or action
The NFC tag on the stand is on the front, on top if the little white light. I believe it says "NFC" in small print.
This confused me also, because I expected the NFC to be in the back if the stand, so the phone would see the NFC while charging. But, I don't know, maybe the current interferes with it or something.

Just to report back, NFC Retag worked for me. Easy to use and set up, works great with the stand and you do have to have the phone screen active and hold it sideways. Probably easier to just turn on the app but nice to know it works. This is new technology for me, other than the commercials of people tapping phones together I am not familiar with other ways this feature is used in everyday life but I am here to learn.
Thanks again.
After one day and only popping the back cover off and on twice, in the bottom right where the "notch" and speaker are, if I hold the phone there and squeeze at all (like a normal grip), the back cover is creaking. And yeah, it's popped in all the way.
It's a small thing, but the OCD in me can't ignore it now, especially on such a premium, tightly built and "sleek" device...

You beat me to that (48 y/o and it's been doing that for years).
With respect to the phone, I've had mine since the 17th and haven't experienced anything yet. I'd take it back immediately. It would drive me nuts as well. I had a laptop with keys that squeaked when I pressed and brought it back the very next day. The new one didn't have the same problem. They may look at you like you're crazy and suggest they don't hear anything. Just ignore them and tell them you want a replacement. It's new enough that you won't get a refurbished device.
I've taken my battery cover off several times and put it back on. No creak here. I guess it's up to you. How important is it? Important enough to A, start all over again, and B replace your brand new device possibly with a "Refurbished" one?

Try getting a quick circle case on there to see if it creaks too. If it does then a connector is weak in the phone. If it doesn't then it's your backplate which you can replace or just swap the device.

Anyone seen these available anywhere? My Nexus is 21 days old and the speaker grill fell off somewhere, searched and searched and can't find it. I purchased directly from T-Mobile and they said nothing they can do as I am outside the buyers remorse period and suggested calling Motorola, which I did, they will exchange the phone but I have to send mine in, wait for it to be inspected then they will send a replacement. Seems like a lot for what must be a couple dollar part.
I did find one for the moto x, $5 and $20 shipping from etradesupply but doesn't look the same and that's a hefty shipping for a $5 part.
I'm in the same boat. Hoping a way to buy that part shows up.
Just noticed mine is coming loose too...only a matter of time I guess..got insurance thru tmo tho but still..kinda ****ty
Still no luck, guessing not much we can do about it. If you guys come across them please post back. Makes the phone ugly with it missing and I work in construction, somehow I think it will allow more dust and debris into the phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-2014/accessories/replacement-speaker-covers-t3004674
Just an update,. Motorola sent me a replacement phone because of the speaker grill, even allowed me to change to the cloud white one. New one however has it's own set of issues such as qi charging doesn't work, people complained I sounded like I was under water and lastly, the vibration from touching the screen would make a loud rattling noise... it's on it's way back to Motorola. Hoping the next one works correctly.

Nah, not really.... Just normal luck for me when dealing with stuff like this lol.
Another update, while it's been time consuming, Motorola finally sent me a fully functioning phone. Speaker covers are both firmly attached and qi charging works, no odd noises with vibrating or anything. Loaded up the same ROM on both phones and the new one reboots, completely loads everything up a good 5 seconds faster than the old one. I even held them both in my hands and simultaneously rebooted them because just in general use the new one was noticeably quicker.
Motorola did accidentally charge my card tho, they were supposed to just put a hold on it while they waited for me to ship the original back so they offered me a free set of the new moto surround BT headsets as compensation for my troubles, without me asking for a thing, pretty good customer service IMO.
Anyways, all said and done I am happy with how they handled it and have no issues recommending Motorola products to anyone considering them, with the new moto x pure coming out, I'll probably pick one up now over the oneplus 2 for the simple reason of having faith in the customer service they offer.
Hey is anyone else experiencing this issue with the phone back peeling? It is really bad alongside the audio jack. It's starting to crack around the input for the charger also. Seems like a defect. I wouldn't think this would be normal wear and tear after only a month.

Mine isn't doing that at all, but I've only taken the back off one time since the day I bought the phone. My battery and SD card promo pack are showing up tuesday, and I'm sure mine will be peeling once I start swapping batteries every day.
Luckily for us, replacements are available: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=lg+v10+back+cover&_sacat=0
I don't use a case... But really this shouldn't be happening. I have taken the back off maybe 5 times? This is something that younger expect to start happening after 6 months of use.... And what about the spot beside the charging port?
I'm gonna see if I can maybe get them to send a replacement back. I don't feel like this is something you'd normally expect of a 6 week old phone. IMHO

Yeah.. I mean I'll admit sometimes in the dark it's probably more difficult to get it just right. But totally would think LG would've counted for that and made it a little more durable... Literally only like 6 weeks old... Lol

Mine is only two weeks old and already peeling on the bottom of the battery cover. Not as bad as the OP's but its there. I noticed it after just a couple days.
Mines doing it too
Peeling around headphone jack pretty bad

Yikes! Thankfully I'm not seeing this so far!
I'm not using a case and I've removed the back maybe 5 or 6 times. I hope this doesn't happen to all of them!

Mine is too.
Tmobile response to my questioning them on the back falling apart.
Wow. Mine has the same problem. I talked to Verizon, they can't do anything about it, LG wants me to send the back to them and they will investigate and see whose fault it is. I'm having reservations and it because I will have to go bareback (???) for a few days. I'm still pissed because it was less than 2 weeks when I got the phone.

At least their being honest with you. Take it as a chance to invest in a wireless charging back cover.
This is a serious lack in customer service. What a mess. I will be calling next week and also sending pics and complaints to Tmobile. This phone is unfortunately not turning out to be all its cracked up to be. First with the busted screens and now this not so "Dura"skin peeling off the back. This should not be an opportunity to go and buy something else.... Now if LG wants to send me a $15 gift card or something I'll get another back....
Don't get me wrong the internal hardware is great but then so is the G4. I bought it because of its durability primarily and this is quickly becoming an area where it appears to be lacking... Now I just have a "heavy" phone.... With similar features as some other not so heavy ones...

I started a thread on Reddit also. I sent emails to Android Central and Android Police. I don't personally have a Twitter account but if you do maybe consider Tweeting it to LG with a link to the thread so that they can see these multiple reports. Comment on the Reddit thread as well to get that more visibility.... Hopefully this helps.

Same problem with my phone. I've had it since day one and it's peeling in the exact same way in the same spot. I called LG and they said they'd replace it after I send them the back of my phone and they send me a new back which would take up to 10 days. What a joke. I love the phone otherwise but I bought it so I wouldn't need to buy a case. Not that the cases work with the fingerprint scanner. I'm glad for jump on demand. I think it's ridiculous they won't send us a part that cost them a few cents but they send out batteries and sdcards for free.
