So my button keeps sticking. I can't fix it I fail...
Anyways my phone has a couple scratches on the side because I dropped it once. The screenis clean woth no scratches at all since it had a screen protector the whole time.. do you you think samsung will cover it under warranty?
I can't see any reason why they wouldn't.

After having my new phone less than 10 minutes I managed to drop it and the outer screen is smashed cracked. Is there any where someone can recommend that sell spares? The phone still functions but I need it fixed

Yeah it's gonna cost you about $260 for a new screen and even more if you paying someone to fit it.

I the best price i have seen for a Screen without the bumper is 249 300+ with the bumper around the screen.
its not really hard to change out either. Changing just the bumper is harder than changing just the screen, especially if the other screen is cracked and you are not trying to save it.
parts are out there though.
i have dropped mine 7 times now, and plan on throwing it against the wall here in about a month and getting square trade to give me another device, or the replacement cost.

Ha ha, well stupidity is one thing I just can't tolerate, if people choose not to educate themselves and instead insist in posting stupid stuff on xda I'm forced to say something. Stupidity is a choice!
But a straight up accident of this magnitude after only 10 mins of having the phone is no laughing matter, accidents happen and in this case I feel for the guy.

I have got the answer for you, this is what you must do,
1. Buy an S3 display + digitizer from ebay:
2. Follow this video tutorial:

Yeah; it's just the product serial number. It wasn't meant to be left on the phone. You know, like the plastic screen you have to peel off some electronics...
I can't stand people who leave those protective plastic stickers on their devices. It was meant to protect against shipping damages, nothing more. Peel it off! My dad is the worst like that. We had a crappy Acer laptop he bought from BestBuy for a while. He left the full plastic on the back of the screen for MONTHS.
I didn't know it can be peeled off. I'm waiting for the phone in the mail. Of course I will peel it off! It bothers the crap out of me as well!

It has all the serial numbers that are normally under the battery. Since there's no removable battery it's on the back, I just peeled mine off and stuck it on the box.

Keeps water out so the phone meets IPX-5 (IPX-5 – Protected against low pressure water stream from any angle). I believe our phone has this.. the Butterfly does anyway..
I charge the phone wirelessly but like the sleek look with the cover on

mine was gone on day 4
I'm using one of the recent CM nightly builds and suddenly i can't boot. I noticed youtube updated right before it happened. I can't even boot into recovery. The samsung logo comes up but then nothing happens. Am I screwed? I wanted to wait for the nexus 5 before I upgrade
If you can see the Samsung logo, and the device vibrates, hopefully you're ok. You might have a stuck power button. It happens a lot. Try tapping it a bunch of times rapidly, or flicking the back with your finger.
Have you tried getting into download mode?

Hah, I guess that was it. The power button doesn't seem like it is stuck, but if I hold it down until the samsung log appears, then rapidly tap it, the boot completes. Thanks for the tip! Hopefully I can get this thing to last until October.
I had to take mine apart and clean it with a little rubbing alcohol to get it now to stick anymore. Took me all of five minutes and has been fine for a few months since

What is this running alcohol you speak of? Is it a West coast thing? Does it have legs? Can you drink it? Does it only come in little size or can you get multiple sizes?

Is there anywhere you can buy just the T-Mobile back cover? Mine makes a creaking noose when you touch the back around the camera.

I've found that most of the "creaking" noises comes from the battery being slightly loose.
Try taking out your battery and see if it still creaks.
I thought the back cover was solid not flimsy like past phones? I'm not going to press around the camera to see if I hear a creak. Lol
Mine has a slight creek in one corner, however, I fixed it by heating it with a hair dryer and bending it a little and now JTS perfect. I have 3 back covers and the Att one creeks more for some reason but I don't notice anything while it's in my case.
