Try this.
This will work :thumbup:
Hold the phone upside down.
So that the antenna will face up.
You might encounter some issues like the screen appearing to be flipped upside down.
You can simply fix that by rotating your head exactly by 180 degree. :angel:

Simply, either buy a case or hold it differently, cause you are holding it wrong.
guys are you really kidding me or what?
how should i hold it if that's not a "correct position" ? i'm really interested what the hell are you talking about
why it's not correct position? because of stupid htc made gsm antena in the bottom or what?
Spoke with HTC. They said the fix is to.... Not hold the phone when talking on it. They said you should use the one mini for talking.

OK about 6 months ago my I dopped my phone, cracked the touch glass, so I ordered a new white case and glass (they were never sold here by telstra in white). So the day I get my phone back I go down to a house I am renovating after work to do some more renovations. about midnite some low life sneeks in the back door and steals my phone off the counter while I was at the other end of the house.
Well today a friend brought a white phone into my work to have repaired- and what do you know its my phone (I still have the box with imei number under my desk).
Upon opening battery cover I see this - can anyone tell me what has been ripped out from the top left and if it can be replaced / fixed (the phone boots but I need to flash it before I can put a sim card in it):

So can anyone tell me what is missing and if I can fix it / buy a replacement?
it is only a cover ( for speaker )
if your hw speaker is working its not a big deal just cover it up with the back case.
yeah theres nothing missin
i took that black cover off mine a while back and theres nothing there
but dont u think its weird that there is nothing under it?
why cover up something that isnt even there? i am thinking that SE planned to put something in there, but didnt in the end... just my opinion
nah seems to me its like a service panel like its a space to get to the motherboard easier
I guess its the compass try they maps and if the comapass works because its cover is removed

Wow man talk about luck!
Hope everything works again.. are you planning on giving it back
So I'm curious what happened to this situation with the "friend" who brought the phone in. Did he confess he stole it from you, whether or not he knew it was yours, or did you confront him? Or did he bring it in for someone else maybe? I know I would be pissed at someone, especially a friend, if they stole my phone. Not to mention that you just fixed the damn thing. How long did he have it? I would be grilling that thief. "Why did you take my phone?" "Why the F#[email protected] is the cover off the back inside, your obviously not a phone technician or you wouldn't be bringing it in?!" "What kind of person steals someones phone?" and the final thing to say, "Come by my house later, I have a surprise for you."
its the speaker, Mini also have this mesh thing, it is used to cover the diaphragm of the speaker. it also in line with the speaker outlet. but on your unit only the mesh was gone.
this diaphragm protect it from dirt build up. So without this it will still work but have a possibility to have dirt buildup.
This.is what happens when u do forget

Dang there are a lot of these. If it flew off a car at speed I can understand this but people have been spider-webbing their screens just from a 2 foot drop. Maybe they should rename "Gorilla Glass" to "Sissy Screen" or "Fairy Film".

Gorilla glass is not to make the glass stronger, It offers a more scratch resistant screen, it will hold a little better than regular glass but it wont be much.
My phone never leaves my hand, you can ax my mama that.
I don't know about you, but it's virtually impossible for me to forget a $500 device sitting on the hood of a car, let alone for it to even be on the hood of a car in the first place.
Calm, that really Sux man. My wife one time left her og evo on the roof of our car, and we drove off, LOL... Luckily, she had a case (a rubber one) on it. Well, we didn't notice it on the roof, and we drove off. Later, we were looking for it and we couldn't find it. She remembered leaving it on the hood. Sol. Anyway, a day or two later we get a call from some lady saying she found a EVO on the side of the road, and asking if we owned it. I told her yes, and that my wife left it on our roof of our car. Well, LUCKILY, nothing was wrong with it. No broken screen, no scratches, nothing! I was amazed..

Hi guys,
I've noticed over the past few weeks that the hard button (home button) has been coming a bit lose on the right side.
It tends to make a squeaking sound when touched lightly however the button functions at 100%.
Anyone else notice the home button loosening a bit?
Some GS2s have firm and some have loose home button, so no need to panic as long as it works.
Apply a little pressure to the right side of the button. Does it eventually click in place? So that you no more have a loose button?

Yeah that works.... but eventually later on it comes lose again.
Would it be something underneath, the creaking sound its really pissing me off.
I had this, i sent it for repair which fixed it. However, 2 weeks later its loose again.

You're right. It's a buildquality thing.

i feel like i got the same thing on my s2
the button is not loose but it moves in place; hardly distinguishable though unless you use a magnifying glass
many reported having light leaking on the sides of the button, i don't have that,
i don't know if i should be happy or
phone is overall fine, its the closest you can get to perfect, with the exception of some varying degree of yellow tint, which i know will be resolved when the official 2.3.4/.5 rom release in my region.
other than that, handle with care, lol.
is it normal for there to be some flexibility when touching the home button, or is the home button suppose to stay in one place? I noticed that the home button moves around its housing a bit (i dont know if this is the right word to use)
if you get too picky about it you can sometimes hear a a minuscule squeak, but when pressing from an extreme corner.
let me know
I had this also but I was able to snap it back...
Well I might be the first to have let my prime fall. Teetered off a stack of towels and fell to the rug about two feet down. Was playing music, and it instantly stopped. Now I can't get it to turn on. Not sure what to do. Plugged it into the charger and the led on the power button lights up, but I was at >90 battery.
If I hold the power button for 10 seconds the unit vibrates once, but no display. Then about 30 seconds later I get a small ding and a screen lock sound.
Any thoughts?

It sounds like Asus made the device so horribly that even a 2 feet drop onto carpet will ruin it...
They probably used sticky rice to hold the internals together. Woot go ASUS! I really hope they get into some trouble over this tablet.
if it doesn't look damaged from the outside from fall, just return and exchange it. we won't say anything
was it inside a case? did it fall on its back, flat on its face, or on a corner? strange how such a short fall on carpet did that. I'd return it asap. should be easy to exchange. especially if it doesn't look like you yourself damaged it.

It vibrates; you hear the screen lock sound; tethering? Looks like your screen cable came loose.
Seems like you broke the LCD the prime itself is on you just don't have picture I would say let it sit a day and good luck
If you have a micro HDMI cable and a TV, you could try hooking it up to check if the device is turning on and if the problem is only with the screen itself.

don't go through all that and void warranty. cuz if you open it up and can't fix it, they will know. then they will accuse you of being the one that broke it n you be outback.

I doubt if he, Jdbaker, really did open it up. he produced no pics or videos of that claim. he just said that to try to make more people believe his theory. just like he said Asus Engineers called him personally to confirm his theories. after he also told engineers he opened up the back himself. sounds like some Major B.s. to me..lol of he really did do that he would've made sure to take pix to back up his claim. I know I would have.
Sorry if this has been discussed already, but I got my SGS3 a couple of days ago (so far I like the phone a lot, coming from an iPhone4) and I noticed today that when I tap the upper side of the screen I hear a little buzzing/clicking or popping sound. It feels like there is something loose inside that moves, and it only happens on the upper side of the screen. When I tap the bottom or mid section this sound is not apparent.
I can also feel/hear the sound when I shake the phone.
Is this normal for this phone or should I go back to the att re-seller and complain?
Thank you
That's definitely not normal. I'd take it in and have them replace it.
I've never heard of a Salaxy S3 with this, better get it replaced
this is really interesting - I actually went back to the store and played with a couple of the GS3 they had. Both were doing exactly what I experience on mine. I guess this is something normal for GS3's...
I guess I am waaay too picky andd will have to learn to live with this

Ohhh I hear what your talking about.. but you have to hit it pretty hard..... and it is not very loud.

Hmm will deff. try this when I get mine but I don't really press on my phones screen. Just a simple tap, tap, tap-a-roo will do.
I'm seeing the same thing on my Verizon GSIII. I took off the battery door and can reproduce it by pressing on the plastic frame near the volume control. It is clearly the plastic case making the creaking sounds. So annoying.
I was considering exchanging the phone because of this, however now it sounds like it is more widespread. Should I just live with it? Does anyone Galaxy Nexus's do this?

I'd go in and get a replacement. Mine doesn't do this at all. Verizon has already screwed us all enough. The least they can do is replace your defective device.

Sorry if this has been discussed already, but I got my SGS3 a couple of days ago (so far I like the phone a lot, coming from an iPhone4) and I noticed today that when I tap the upper side of the screen I hear a little buzzing/clicking or popping sound. It feels like there is something loose inside that moves, and it only happens on the upper side of the screen. When I tap the bottom or mid section this sound is not apparent.
I can also feel/hear the sound when I shake the phone.
Is this normal for this phone or should I go back to the att re-seller and complain?
Thank you

I noticed the exact same problem with my device. It's the side buttons.
