I have it too.. But i believe its bacause the screen is curving(not sure if its the right word ) by the force of the grip of your hand plus the size of the tablet is really thin so stuff like that is possible.
Its like u have a card and when you bend it the reflection of the light is on the bend.
If u get what im saying youll understand

Screen comming loose

Anyone else had this?
Seem the screen is comming loose in one corner. Can push it down again, but it comes back up after a minute or so.
That's weird... Have you dropped it or something?
I'd try to get it replaced asap
That happened to my galaxy sL (without dropping it).. Send it to a service center and it will get replaced without a cost (considering you have warranty)

I have the same problem, in the lower left corner.
But my SGS2 dropped a few times and there are some scratches... I'm not sure about the guarantee... :S
Same here. Back button corner. Also the light can be seen inbetween the metal rim and the button in the dark.

Think my top left corner is starting to get loose aswell, can press it slightly down sometimes.
Can feel and hear it moving.
Guess ill go get it repaired before warranty runs out
My friend had the same problem.
His SP repaired the device
Happy days
nope.mine drop quite a few times before, but still working fine.
Ive researched abit to try find the cause of it, im not sure but in my case it seems to be because of cpu heat, as my loose corner is where the phone gets really hot during games and some applications.
And i think the screen lens is glued to the amoled screen, in dissasembloy videos i see ppl heatup the edges around the screen to *melt* the glue so they can remove the screen glass.
Anyway contacted those i bought it from and waiting for service, as i want it fixed.

[Q] Xperia S's screen is not centered

Dear XPS users,
Well I got bored and i was just starring at my phone LOL i dont know why but yea.
Anyway i notice that my phone's screen isnt really centered. how?
check your middle captivate button (the home button) and try moving your eyes up (aligning) with the app icon in the center.
it doesnt really bother me but i also notice that my menu LED is kind of dimmer than the other two -.- well this is my second XPS with no yellow tint issue. im not returning this to take another risk.
anyway how many of you notice your screen isnt that centered?
I just had a look at this and nope mine is centred perfectly I also measured up to the middle dot at the top of the screen and is also aligned fine.
Measure the gap between the dots and tell me what you get I am interested to know haha
okay for me:
from left side to left dot: 1.1cm
from left dot to middle dot: 1.96cm
from middle dot to right dot: 1.98cm
form right dot to right side: 1.2cm
obviously some human error in that...man I must be really booooored!
Just looked..
It seems to be in center...
Mine aligned perfectly.
12W15 ABAE
Nice n centred on mine too
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
how about a survey thread?
but mine also is perfectly in the middle...
I dont know can you guys see well. the pictures may or may not illustrate that clearly but having the phone in my hands i can see it no doubt.
Like even bringing up the menu settings on the homescreen you could already tell they dont align.
pictures below.
and also i see that the weather widget is a bit moved towards the left side.
the last picture. you could also see that my menu LED light is dimmer than the other two.
again im not being picky or anything just pointing things out. im a artist so i do see stuff when its a bit off lol i cant help it.
My weather widget is aligned and so are my buttons.
It could be that your head may be on a little crooked (joking!) but I'm sorry I really don't see it. I do see the bubble on your screen protector though, and that would annoy me more than a suspected 1/2mm off symbol. My lights are also the same brightness

..lol he is right. The dot is slightly to the right, but not very noticeably. I really don't care, one does not notice under normal circumstances..
Sent from my SXS
LOL i applied the screen p on myself. well it was free and messed up the first time. :l better than nothing.
anyway im sorry i cant hold my camera still but im being super serious.
maybe we should have a XPS gathering sometime soon LOL
Why guess with your eyes when they can be tricked easily, I just checked mine with a ruler, mine aligns up perfectly.
Middle should be 3.1cm's (from glass screen edge) from top to bottom with everything including software and hardware aligning correctly.

[Q] Is my DNA faulty or is a design problem?

Hi guys,
So I'm posting here to ask you if this is normal or not. I'm noticing that there's a tiny tiny crack between the biezel that joins the screen to the backplate of the phone (where the plastic of the screen meets the rubber plastic of the back. This is at the bottom near the usb port in the middle between the home button and the back button. It's tiny, however it's enough that some of the white light coming from the capacitive buttons escapes from that crack/gap whatever it is that.
I've had the phone for more than 15 days now and I never noticed because this is the first time I've used the phone in a pitch black room. That's when I noticed a very dim white light escaping the biezel at that position. However, that's the only way to see it, even under close inspection you cannot see any gaps or anything... only when the surrounding is really really dark.
I hope that I explained it well because unfortunately I don't have another camera to take a picture with to show you.
Try to use your phone in a pitch black room and you should see it right away or not?
thank you,
I experience nothing like this on mine.

[Q] Random dead spot on screen?

Hi all, sorry my first post is asking for help, but I'm lost on this one.
It doesn't happen all the time, but I randomly get a dead spot on the bottom right corner of my phone.
It happens when I touch the app drawer, and the L key when I'm texting. It only randomly acknowledges I touched the screen.
Restarting the phone usually helps, but does that mean it's software or hardware?
Should I have it replaced?
Stock VZW Note II, no apps installed.
Ty for any and all help.
-edit-
It was replaced for a bad digitizer.
When using Multitouch visibility test, if you put more then 4 fingers on the screen, it locked up the phone requiring removal of the battery.
Perhaps instead of software, could it be heat?
It sounds like a dead/dying pixel to me. If it is only there on certain screens, then probably not, but if its there on say the boot screen or something, then I'd take it back.
silhet ingliil
I'm sorry I should have been more specific.
It's not a screen blemish.
It's when I go to tough the screen.
Like if I hit the L key on the keyboard during a text message, it will only register a touch like 50% of the time.
Or if I touch the app drawer, I have to hit it multiple times to open it up.
The actual screen is perfect, no dead or stuck pixels at all.

I'd return to Verizon, especially if you're not rooted so it won't be any trouble returning to stock etc.
It's probably mildly annoying to you now and it's only going to get worse over time. If there's no physical damage to the phone I don't see them giving you any trouble.

No damage at all, and I actually went through 3 screen protectors before I figured out it wasn't them.
Kinda bummed I have to drive 45 miles to return this damn thing though.

You don't. Call VZ and they will ship you another and give you a prepaid box to ship the old one back in.

I actually called them, and they told me to just take it back to the store in case the replacement has issues.
Which is troubling to hear.
I have a youtube video demonstrating the problem, but I won't let me post it so ohwell.
Will have to wait til I get 10 posts.
Basically, using multitouch visibility test, I roll my finger around the bottom right corner while never lifting it off, and it won't recognise my trying to touch the specific spot.
After I life my finger and move it around the screen it will recognise the spot. It's very random.
Here's the video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGl9RoBLpjA
-edit-
The youtube tags aren't working?
So what do you all think?
Hardware or software?
After further messing around in Multitouch Visibility test, I can replicate this all over the screen, but it's easiest to do at the bottom right corner where L shows up on the keyboard.

That would only affect the S-Pen, from what I understand.

Nah, it was a bad digitizer they said.
Whenever you put multiple fingers on screen, it would lock up, and require yanking the battery to reboot.
When you notice this are you holding the S-pen? I noticed if you get the pen near the screen (close enough for air hover to work) that the screen and buttons quit working to touch. For a little while I thought the home button was having problems, turned out the way I was holding the pen would result in it being placed near the screen when I hit the button.

The main reason I noticed it was when I was texting.
Whenever I went to type words like sleep, or talk, they would be missing the letter L.
Or when I would go to open the app drawer, and it would only work half the time.
All while the pen was in the phone.
The lockup doesn't sound normal but as far as dead spots if you have a screen protector on have you tried removing it? Marginal screen protectors will cause touch input issues.

Capacitive touch buttons do not light up

Hi guys,
I just received my one plus x today. The phone is amazing both in looks and performance.
However, i noticed that my capacitive touch buttons do not light up ever. It is hard to spot them even in full light. I just wanted to make sure I did not receive a defective piece. Is it supposed to be like this?
Thanks in advance. Cheers!

I found the Faq around One Plus X - looks like lot of doubts being cleared in this one.

Your question has been answered two posts above yours already.
I don't really care because i use sofware navbar, but i don't see why they didn't make lights for the capacive buttons. Is it so hard and expensive to make? Because it could be nice
The idea is to conserve battery?
This is awesome. One less thing to disable. Backlight in buttons is really dumb. It´s just two or three buttons. How can someone not remember two to three buttons?
I've come up with a procedure to compensate for the lack of backlit capacitive keys:
Materials required:
Scotch tape
A glow-in-the-dark paint pen
Steps:
Place a piece of scotch tape over the bottom bezel.
Using the paint pen, draw the appropriate symbols on the scotch tape directly over the capacitive keys.
Wait for the paint to dry per the instructions on the paint pen. (Note: Baking the device to speed up the paint drying process is not recommended!)
Wallah!!! :good:

Do NOT try this at home.
And anyways why do you need buttons when you have doubletap2wake? Also after using smartphones for a while don't you guys know where the buttons are usually located?

But there is no danger in it, so you could try it at home or your office, wherever...
Looking at most of the photos of this phone, it was difficult to see that this phone had capacitive buttons. Not to mention some photos with the software navibar on. I know it's nice to have options, but with a phone this size, I'm almost rather they reduced the bottom a bit more in favor of a slightly longer screen and opted for just the software navibar.

you dont even need to use doubletap2wake because this phone uses active notifications and motion sensors to switch the screen on whenever it is taken out of the pocket or picked up.
