the slider on my phone does its kinda loose i can have it shut and wiggle the ends i dont like it :/ anyway to fix this i dont want my slider to break then just move whenever its tilted or w.e
The only way I can think of is to buy a new housing.
My slider is slowly deteriorating and it has become so loose at the right end of the screen, that I tell everyone it has a SurePress screen!
i know this sucks :'[ its all loose and ghetto

I see other people have posted the problem with the stylus coming loose over time.
I also noticed today that the paint inside the ie button and to a certain extent the messaging button (the buttons above the screen) has been removed, it seems due to taking the device out of the holder all the time.
Anyone else think this is realy poor

yes i too think its a little lack-lustre.
the internet and messaging buttons logo's have both lost 90% of their paintwork.
i think it wont be too long until my keyboard becomes a little too easy to open. after all its only two little plastic notches which cause it to "snap in and out" once they have worn down a little then its gunna get ugly

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Is that true ? I am going to buy one, you talkng about Qtek9100 or K-Jam or both???
i have kjam, but both are the same in terms of build
heres a cross section of the slider in action... when you pull it out the little notch "snaps" into the recess.. and the same when you close.
seeings as its just plastic i have a feeling that that will eventually wear down with use. i already think its become looser than it used to be from only having it a month
I have the qtek 9100 and do not have any oif the problems described above .... yet!!

ok so, ive noticed recently that my TMO MDA, takes a while to load correctly on an incoming call, because it has to rotate the display, even tho i put it in normally.
turns out...
my case has magnets at the top, and no matter how i put the fone in, it will pick up that magnet, and rotate itself, then rotate back. WHY?????????
i was thinking that i could just like basically find the component ( if ur looking at the back, its toward the bottom left, behind the stylus holder) and remove it.
but maybe theres a better way?
any thoughts?
wouldn't it be easier to take the magnets out of the case? replace them with velcro or something? I certainly wouldn't alter my phone so it works with the case.
That's because the sensor is a reed switch. When the keyboard slides out, a magnet on the keyboard moves close enough to the switch in the other half of the phone to activate it.
Removing the switch (even if you found it - they can be really tiny) would result in phone screen not rotating with keyboard slided out, and you probably wouldn't want it, would you? I'd say to modify the case with velcro or some diffrent locking mechanism, or get another case instead.
that would make sense
ima try to modify my case then. thanks for the immediate response!
Just wondering if anyone else has this problem....i kinda fixed it by tightening the screws in the back of the phone...when the screen is up and i touched the bottom left of the screen and gave a little pressure it would wiggle a little.....so anyone have this problem also??
Yeah as I use it more and more it seems to move and not be as tight. Not a huge problem yet, but if it continues to get worse then I may bring it in.
My streak has started making a very noticible "click" noise when i press on the case, bottom left near the microphone hole, Just to the left of the home button. Now i havent taken my phone apart, but it sounds like however the piece just under the screen is attached, its somehow coming apart ever so slightly...visually it looks perfect still....doesent appear that the plastic piece is gonna come off anytime soon....its just an annoying click that makes it feel crappy. Anyone else experience this?
Maybe the hamsters wheel is coming loose and knocking on the casing, you did know it was hamster powered??
Sorry I can't be more helpful, no clicks or wobbles on my case so far and fingers crossed.
Can any others confirm if this occurs on your device. With the keyboard out if I press the bottom right corner to the keyboard portion I hear a distinct sound like its loose or something..
Mine creaks when I push that area, I'm not to worried about it any slider phone I've had has done something like that when the keyboard is out.
Yes that's exactly the sound I was referring too. Creaks... Any others confirm? As long as others are experiencing this I won't worry too much...
like rsacipher said, just about every slider I've seen creaks a little bit. if that's all it is i wouldn't worry about it. however if the sliding screen feels loose or if there's a gap between it and the main body then i'd definitely have it replaced.
