anyone has this kind of problem?

Hi. I bought the Galaxy Note about 3 weeks ago.
1> Since I bought it, I've noticed when I am charging the phone, I am not able to turn it on (if the phone is off before the connecting to cable - usb/power socket).
2> sometimes, when I wake up the phone by pressing the power button. The screen doesn't wake up, instead it shows a few coloured horizontal lines moving vertically and the speed seems to be randomly. This lasts for about half a second, then the screen goes to black. If I wait for a few seconds, then press the home key (middle key in the bottom), the phone wakes up......
I am quite confused about these two problem. Anyone else ever observes similar thing?
Did you buy it new or used? What ROM etc.?

[Q] Power button - left side sitting lower than is right side

I just noticed the left side of the power button sits lower than its right side as if its following the curvature of that edge. Anybody else have this? Or is the button sinking in?
Another way to see this is by comparing it to the volume button. The volume button appears perfectly horizontal while the power button appears tilted to the left.
Can somebody confirm this?

Hi,
It's perfectly normal!! As you stated it goes with the curvature of the edge, while the volume buttons are perfectly horizontal for being placed in a horizontal place. I see no problems on it, and I think you should only be more concerned if it actually implied in a problem.

Sticky Button

Good evening...
so I picked up a shiny new Note 3 today, and spent all night rooting it, installing SS, Beans 6, and setting up all my apps and whatnot. Not sure how I didn't notice it before, but suddenly I've just realized the power button sticks if pressed just so. Appears to happen when you press the power button with your finger on the lower third of the button. It's always a touch "sticky" for lack of a better word, but most concerning is that sometimes it will literally stick. Get stuck. In the depressed position. Only to pop up when you gently touch the top part of the button.
If I press in the middle or top half of the power button it works fine.
Anyone else have this issue? Any ideas on the cause? Can it be fixed or do I need a replacement phone? I'd really rather not have to go through all this again tomorrow with a new device, but not sure I can take the sticky button for the next two years and worried it might actually get worse if its a mechanical defect.
Thanks
EDIT: Taking the phone back in the morning. I am way too OCD to just "live with it". In the process of flashing the MJE file and unrooting. =(

Home button is sticking and clicking

Hi everyone, my new S7 edge (1 day old) is having an issue with it's home button, if the button is pressed and there is some directional force towards the left (any right handed user does this), the button sticks for about half a second then pops back up with a loud click.
Does anyone know a quick fix for this issue?
Cheers

Return it would be the best option... It will end up driving you nuts... My first S7 edge had a home button that had to be pressed right in the middle... If I didn't push in the middle it wouldn't register....

Home button not working correctly

Hello everybody,
I've bought my titanium silver S7E a week ago and have been satisfied so far.
Last couple of days, I've noticed that the home button is only responsive if I click on its center and a bit to the left.
The edges of the button and the whole right side will produce a "click" sound, but won't really press the button.
The fingerprint sensor integrated within the button works just fine.
Anyone else has this issue?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
no issue
There is already a thread about this home button's issue here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/flaky-home-button-t3337431
I had also the same problem and i went to Samsung Greece. They told me that the home button is manufactured to working properly only at the centre and they have no information about this issue.
But they seen the button's problem and they change my screen (button and screen are together).
Now the problem is not gone but its better than before....Im not happy about...
