Just got my nexus 7 in today. It seems fine, although, I noticed that con the cleft side of the screen, it seems to be slightly raised in the middle. The corners attached fine. Are people sending out back for this? It doesn't seem like an issue, just an annoyance
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Sounds like it. Seems like it's always on the left side for some reason. It's lifts up over the bezel and you can push down on it and it lifts again later. That is how mine is... or was hopefully.
I heated it up with a game, then put a couple clamps on it, left it over night turned off, and today it has stayed down so far. Hope the adhesive that is suppose to hold the glass down sticks now.
I had a previous one though that was slightly different, it was raised on the left side, but I couldn't push it down. Seemed like a screw was tightened too far or something. I sent that one back.
Either deal with it or get a refund if it really bothers you. You can also try number of fixes that are posted on these forums. They pretty much all have this issue to some degree.

Yes this is it, but the real problem is if it makes a noise when you push on it. THATS the annoying part.
Mine doesn't make any noise, although it definitely is a tiny bit squishy and if you try and push hard on it, it does act a little like an LCD monitor. I just didn't care enough to try and return it, as I would have never noticed it if everyone hadn't had their panties up in a wad as much as they did. I figure the worst that happens is that it gets worse over the next year and I end up having to spend a whole $200 more on a newer model.
I agree. I can't imagine this truly hurting the experience. Oh well. Not a big deal as long as it works well

Are you guys serious? If I buy a product, it better not have defects. Why would anyone settle for bad quality? Products these days should not have any issues with the technology we have.
This doesn't make sense to me.
Mine is arriving next week and I hope everything is perfect.

I agree, if it was a true issue I would get a new one. In my case, it is only raised in the middle, and not that noticeable. Everything else is fine. You can fix that too

Besides it shouldn't affect performance. I hope

When I got my second one from the play store, it looked like the middle of the left side was raised. I thought I pushed it down but it never came back up.
I keep looking at it and touching it but nothing. I don't know if I imagined it or maybe bad lighting.
Just install a TPU case where the lip overhangs the screen. Problem solved. Out of sight out of mind. I'm enjoying my N7.
If its a problem 6 months later then I'll call and exchange it. Big whoop.

Doesn't affect my daily use so why should I care. I purchased a two year warranty through square trade should anything go wrong. I shouldn't expect defects but if it truly isn't hurting anything, then meh.

I don't think that they all have this issue, only a select few. I have been lucky enough to get 4 Nexus 7's and no issues. I have seen the issue posted on the site several times though, and the fixes seem pretty easy. There are some youtube videos on fixing it too. Good luck fixing it mate, would take advantage of the warranty if I were you.
Thank you! I can't understand why anyone would send it in for something like that

You can't understand how when someone holds their tablet by the left bezel and it creaks like a floor board, they'd like to return it? That perhaps when using the tablet as a book they don't want to be distracted by clicking noises?

I am not talking about a problem to that extreme, I am talking about, a very slight raise in the middle, with no squeak. The only thing that I can think of that could be bothersome about that is that when you push hard on the bezel, a little bit of the left screen ripples
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I have exact the same problem as described. They most annoying part is they "cracking" sound it does when tapping on the left side. I curious whether the touchscreen responsivness issue is somehow related to this problem.
Btw I thought it might be related to the processor since its also on the left side, maybe the heat causes the glue to detach ... if you know what I mean.

Yeah, I dont think an rma is going to fix this. Don't squeeze it so hard... fixed.
Mine does it as well, so not knockin ya but. It has yet to be an issue in actual real life use. Sure you can sit there and pinch the thing, but just stop, and you'll never notice it again.
I am very OCD about my devices. Honestly, as long as I know that nothing is wrong with it in that category, I will be fine
I noticed the ripple on two of the three N7's I tried. While I think it probably SHOULDN'T be happening (i.e., it represents an underlying design and/or manufacturing flaw), I don't think it will cause any issues. Like the screen lift, it's one of those things where it's technically a defect, but it's not likely to cause any performance or other issues.
If I hadn't had other problems with mine, I'd have put the best N7 in a case and forgotten all about those two issues.
What were your other problems
My first one had pretty good screen seperation all along the left side, and pretty bad lightbleed from the left side.
My new one has barely any lift (just a 1 inch section, about a third the way up on the left side), but has the lcd ripple.
The screen seperation isn't even noticeable unless you lay it flat and look across the glass and this one feels solid, the first one was spongy.
I can handle the ripple, because it only happens when im messing with it, trying to make it happen.

Tried it on mine. I am kind of shocked at how hard it had to press to get it to ripple. I am hoping get that the op has a worse case than I do because if not this is crazy. I would never pinch that hard I every day use.

Just found another stuck pixel. Prob going for a return
I'm loving my Note, but just found a small issue. It's not enough to return it, but it's there. When, say drawing with your finger, or using Swype, the lines can turn out rather jagged if you move your finger slowly. I've attached a picture showing this. I alternate between drawing slowly and quickly.
I've noticed this on other devices, such as the Nook Color, but wouldn't expect this out of a high-end device. Has anyone else noticed this?

Also, don't forget that there's the object tool in S-Note. It'll straighten any lines you draw.
I've also noticed that with my finger, it only happens some of the time. This issue also makes scrolling a tiny bit jittery. All is smooth with the pen.
I'm wondering if it's just a slight defect that's specific to my Note...

A couple questions:
Is battery saver on?
Is this only happening when you are plugged in?
If nor, Is this phenomenon happening more pronounced when plugged in?
Is this happening inside the xda app?
Anywhere else?
My xda app on the tablet sucks. Its the one app i have that constantly crashes (other than crackle), randomly.
i haven't witnesssed this phenomenon OUTSIDE of the xda app - i have noticed a weird lagginess, almost as if the text was on a weighted spinning wheel, and when you spin it, it slows down almost as if gravity is pulling it down due to the weight.
some of the GS2's (especially sprint variety) had an issue where if it was plugged in, the touchscreen did not respond very well and TouchWiz went 4x as slow. it sometimes till happens if i use the wrong wall outlet. again, i haven't seen this happened while plugged in (the cord is too short for me) but try doing this without it plugged in.
i haven't had any problems with the Wacom digitalizer. i mean, it's top of the line, right? i haven't really used my finger to draw a straight line (i thought that's why we had a pen) but when i did, i drew it mostly straight until i drew slow. then my own FINGER was moving the line up and down and it became squiqqly. i doubt it has to do with the wacom digitzer, but perhaps you have a bad one. i haven't had the problems you've reported, and i can assure you i have been putting this tablet through the grinder TRYING to find things wrong with it. Blame Asus for what they did to me with the Prime and Infinity but all I can complain about is losing 14 pages of Snotes after the update and the squeekiness on the right side of my tablet. As i'm using this with BT keyboard and BT mouse now with no drop in speed, i'll take the squeekiness anyday.
I'll keep searching for this digitizer issue. originally i had some sort of digitizer issue but i haven't had it since the update. it was suggested to me to do a hard reset but i didn't go that route. i also find this fascinating that it's unlike the old Windows Phone 98/5/5.1/6 editions that had you touch your stylus to a certain part of the screen once hard reset to calibrate the screen.

Power Save mode was off. It becomes more pronounced while plugged in, and sometimes it'll stop tracking my finger while charging. It happens
in most, if not all apps I've used.
In CM10, the problem isn't quite as bad, but that could be due to Project Butter and how smooth everything is. It is still there, however.
I'm really hoping its an isolated issue, because besides this, this tablet is excellent(and this issue doesn't *totally* degrade the experience)

I noticed this thread earlier and was wondering if it was the same issue. As said, I'm really hoping this is an isolated problem. There's a good chance I'll exchange this for the 32gb (Best Buy didn't have it at the time), so I'll post back here if I do. Or maybe its just a driver/kernel issue that can be resolved in an update!

Does anyone else noticed the back of their Nexus 7 being ever so slightly curved? Not that this is something that would bother me, but when I place it on a table it is able to have just enough rock to it that swiping my finger with it or plugging a cable into it will pull the device in the direction of the tension.
(Moderators, I originally put this in Q&A, but since I realized it isn't so much a Q&A thread, I put it here in general. You can delete the Q&A one)

But it is down the vertical spine of the device, not the horizontal one. Plus the speaker grills are placed on the curve of the devices edge, so laying flat shouldn't be much of a problem anyway.
Not sure then. I just tried it with mine and I don't have that problem.

Best buy just refused to exchange it and wouldn't even try another device to see if it also did it, claiming it is a design choice (clearly she was on the ASUS/Google development team). Nor would they PM with the Staples coupon after the fact (but I can understand that one). She was just very rude and dismissive.
I just laid mine down on a marble counter. It sits flat. Only the edges are tapered for the speakers. Its pretty sturdy.

Yes! Somebody else notices. I was using my tablet in class today vertically and it kept turning horizontal. I noticed that the back isn't completely flat which is causing it to have movement when I lay it on a flat service.

Yeah, It might not be a huge "issue" (as the comment on my video says), but it is very annoying, especially considering I like to have the charger plugged in when I'm on it at times, and if there is any tension on the cord from where it is plugged in to where I am sitting, it will pull the tablet toward it.

I didn't really notice either until I had it plugged in and kept pulling away from me. Then I noticed it when I would swipe the screen. It really is annoying but I don't know how widespread the problem is and it is hard to gauge from the limited responses in this thread so far.

slightly curved back that allows your device to spin freely when on a perfectly flat surface... really?

Plug your tablet via USB to either your computer or an outlet and do some typing. Does the problem go away? I saw someone mention on the forum a while ago about a possible grounding issue, something to do with hardware. Mine does go away. I have zero issues typing when my tablet is plugged in.
Same issue. I guess it is related to kit kat. I am running omnirom, and the reason I flashed it was because my nexus 7 starting spazzing out on me. I thought flashing a rom would fix it, but it did not. What I do it enable show touches in developer options to see where the screen is touching. Then I swipe the entire screen row after row especially the point(s) where it detects the touches that you did not make. Just touch every area of the screen, and it went away, for a little bit at least.
Mine touch problem worsened after kitkat. Not recognising touch At all while lying on the table, to ghost touches to, missing touch it's having all. Though I still love my nexus but it has made the experience bitter sweet

Happens on my Nexus 7 2013 with stock 4.3.
I tested my screen when I first got it with no problems, after updating to 4.4.2. There was one time where it wouldn't register any taps, but problem was fixed after reboot.
My Nexus is still wrapped in its original plastic cover. I have used it very little, and have not noticed any screen mis-clicks or whatever. Are there any guaranteed steps to reproduce the problem ?

just using it, download a multi touch testing problem and place 2 fingers (imagining a grid) one on top of the other or horizontally, if it doesn't happen quickly, give it a few minutes without shutting off the screen and try again...

Mine actually improved drastically with kit Kat. I now get nearly flawless touchscreen response. The one or two times it has happened since, simply locking and unlocking the device resolves the issue.

Have downloaded a multutouch application and have tried it until I got bored. It seems that it detected correctly where my fingertips where, one, two or three at the same time and moving all the time.
I had it disconnected from the USB and laying on the couch, seemed to work OK.
Maybe it is the plastic wrapper making it all work OK?
I had zero touch issues when I first got mine (did 10mins of multi-touch testing with app), after the recent 4.4.2 update, I was getting erratic/missed touches. Multi-touch app confirmed the same, 8 fingers on the screen, it jumped from 8 all the way down to 2 touch readings. A little digging around and I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428133
I tried it out and fixed my touch issues. Give it a try.
I reconnected the touchscreen connector, after that most touch issues were gone except for a rare occasion when I still get ghost touches. Tap sensitivity (typing) is so much better now, it used to be nearly impossible

Its obvious there are grounding issues with this product and It looks like Nexus doesn't really care; which is really disappointing since my first gen has performed flawlessly.

fixing it yourself is really easy, it takes 5 minutes and breaks no seals, so no warranty problems
