Has anyone else had a scratch/nick on the bezel of their new Nexus 10?
Mine had a very small nick right out of the box.
Edit: I've now realized the back plastic piece will not stay in on one side, pictures are below.
Would you return it for another tablet?
I had one on my s2 top right hand corner =|

Sadly, I know not to drop shiny new objects but unfortunately I dropped my nexus 7. Thankfully the screen is perfectly fine but I have chipped the silver bezel. Has anyone had any experience with any touch up products?
It may be the case that I could find a cheap nail varnish that would do the job but I do like the idea of trying something tailored for the job.
Any thoughts would be great.
Regards
Edit: I have chipped my dell xps which is a similar colour and also the handle to my fridge. I could buy in bulk as I probably will continue to use it.

Silver Sharpie might work. I used it to color the stylus button on my Galaxy Note S-Pen. Might have to retouch every month or so, but I think the color should be about right. http://www.amazon.com/Sanford-39108...81746&sr=8-4&keywords=sharpie+silver+metallic
Many thanks for the tip. Nice cheap fix.

Is it black underneath?
Just curious, since my bezel is black. I'd imagine if I was just painted plastic it will wear away.

I was thinking of using nail polish. Light silver would seem appopriate...?
It was black rubber (?) underneath. I'm surprised that the metallic finish Sharpie has worked so well but for the best part of the week no degradation. I'll be honest, I'll probably get an Asus cover from the play store when available in the UK as although the colour is spot on - I didn't prime or sand down prior to application so it still catches my eye.

I just had the same problem and am googling left right and center for fixes. How did this work for you? Do you have a pic?
Is anybody else's back cover on their nexus 7 loose? The back cover on mine is noticeably loose on the right hand side in that when I squeeze or tap it I can hear it make contact with the front.

Uh, considering how many antennas attach to the back, I think you may want an RMA. no, it shouldn't feel like that.

Yes one of my n7 back cover was way loose on the top and I exchanged it. It shouldn't be loose like that and it should be closed tight at all spots.
Before returning it, I'd take it completely off and try to reseat it first. Then if it's the same, return it.

OK. Sounds like I'll have to exchange it. Thanks for all the replies. Surprised that there wasn't another thread on this topic...

Hi,
I have the screen lift issue and when opening my Nexus up I see I have two screws missing. Searching around I've read they are 3.2 mm Phillips screws with M1.4 thread. I know nothing about screws and have tried searching google with no luck. Does anyone know where I can buy these so I can try and replace my missing ones? The guy at HMV said their stock is all the same shipment so if I get a replacement it's most likely to have the same issue.
Any hardware shop. B&Q for example.

Asus apparently decided your screen attachment is better without those two screws, and you are going to replace them. Why?

Put them in and watch that screen rise even more

really? So the only fix is the glue? I thought as some seem to be fixing their screen lift by tightening the screws it would work. Back to the drawing board I guess.

Give it a shot if you want, sod putting glue anyway near my screen, if its that bad take it back

The screen lift isn't too bad more worried about it getting worse in the future. I'm thinking about returning it but my Nexus is perfect bar this lift and with all the issues being reported I'm worried I'll get one with even more issues.

I have a little and a mean a little hardly even noticeable screen lift on the left hand side if u hold in portrait and type with ya thumbs its wear my hand would go, I'm not returning again I'm on my 3rd

I can press the bottom right of my phone at the screw in with my finger and it creaks. It is not a good sign longterm. Does anyone think I can send it back and get a replacement or repair? How long will it take etc? I'm in Germany.

Is this a spot you normally press or were you looking for creaks? If yuppy are looking for them you will find them but if they are not happening under normal use why worry?

I wasn't looking. I just felt it when picking it up, the screw must be loose or something. The whole bottom right is spongy.

Hello,
As the title describes, I am looking for a case for my Nexus 4 that doesn't get in the way of the curved side edges as I use Pie a lot and love the feel of that curved edge. Has anyone found such a case and would like to share?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
You mean one that doesn't cover the sides right by the screen? If yes, mine doesn't, only the left one - but even the right side it's really minimal:
The case has a flip, idk if that's your taste - but has a high quality build, I bought from eBay:

That's almost exactly what I was looking for but I prefer the right edge to be the more exposed one. I'll probably end up getting that one if I don't find one I like better. Thanks for your photo, I wish more sellers on eBay provided photos like that.
