Volume rocker uneven? - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Not sure if this is a problem with my device or all - the top volume button seems to give more of a clicking sound than the bottom.
I know this isn't a major problem, I think I'm just OCD

Mine also had a slightly weaker down click, your not alone!

HELP!!! wildfire rattleing

Hi,
For some reason whenever the vibrator on my wildfire does anything it sometomes makes a ratteling noise. What can I do to stop it ratteling?

same.
That will be the Volume rocker or the power/lock button, but probably the Volume rocker. There is a little bit of give in the handset which I have been told is normal.

Wiggly volume button?

I'm experiencing a slight rattle when I shake my phone. The sound is coming from the volume buttons. Is this normal? Anyone else having the same thing? The volume button seems slightly loose.

This happens on my AT&T GS3 (SGH-i747) as well.
happens to my phone also(doesn't make noise tough just wiggles), not going to return it. also if you get a case that covers the phone you (probably) won't notice it in the future
for me its not the volume but power button, it wiggles but doesnt make noise

Is your power button hard to press?

It seems my power button is hard to press. There's not much of a click so I sometimes I don't know if I pressed it. I wonder I need a replacement.
How's the power button on your Nexus 4?

a little on the soft / mushy side. requires a focused press for sure. in the official bumper however there is a satisfying click.

I have the same...issue? It's not so much an issue as it is something I wish were a little different.

Can't tell you, Google still has my phone
By hard to press you mean hard to find?
Takes sometime to get used to the button position, you know.
Moved to Q&A
PGM Nexus will hopefully be updated to support the n4 soon; awesome application!
No click, hard to press and mushy and way to high on the side.
Volume is the same way.
Bad design, just like placing the speaker on the back of a completely flat surface, who the heck approves these...
Maybe a few of you have sort of a defective button? ( as in not working as intended )

Easy to press but I always seem to be pressing the volume rocker at the same time. I like the top power button location on my Sensation 4G better.

I have the same problem. Its not by any means AWFUL but there are many times I attempt to press it and it doesn't press.
My power button also doesn't feel as solid as the volume rocker.
I'm afraid it will become unresponsive later.
Ok so it seems I'm not the only one with a mushy power button. I don't have a definite click that's for sure.

Power button is good, volume down sticks though. Contemplating exchanging it

[Q] Nexus 4 Power Button Sinking into Housing?

Hello guys,
After awhile of using the phone, I feel the power button sinking more and more into the housing. There is a lot less distance to click from now. From time to time (not often) pressing the power button does not wake the phone but that's rare. Anybody having the same issues? Should I RMA?
The N4's hardware buttons are pretty "thin", if that makes sense. If you're worried, you could try something like Screen Off & Lock (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock&hl=en) to reduce the number of times you press the power button. I currently have a gesture set up in Apex Launcher to launch Screen Off & Lock, and it works nicely. I imagine you could do similar things with Tasker or GMD GestureControl.
I installed CM 10.1. It has option to wake the screen with the Volume Rocker.

Yeah I've noticed it on mine too.
It was very harder and more out when I got it. It'll probably stop sinking when it reaches a certain point.

Not used it for a while but I'm pretty sure widget locker lets wake the phone with the volume keys.
As someone else said it will stop dining after a certain point. I noticed the same thing on the gnex too

Lock button possible issue.

Love my phone so far, but I've noticed the lock button is almost flush with the side of the bezel. Almost to the point where it's hard to push or even find in the dark. It feels responsive, just really close to the bezel. Is this normal?
My volume rocker sits out quite far (almost twice as far as my lock button) and seems prefect...

Im not sure what to tell you. My lock and volume keys are exactly the same. They are not too deep, about a fingernails height up. Nice and clicky. Try going to the store and see if they will exchange it for you?
