Power button disturbing noise - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Got my N4 for a wile now and I love it (you should try AOKP + Franco's kernel BTW, give me two day of battery life, all settings stocks).
So the only problem com from the power button sometime it rattles a little. When I placing the phone on a table for example.
Even with the diztronic TPU case it makes that sound, this make the phone look ships.
Any body experience that or know how to deal with it?

Does a little rattle kill you?

Install this when it's ready, forget there's a power button. :thumbup:

I'm guessing by "ships" you meant cheap? The phone isn't exactly expensive. That's no excuse for a button to rattle, but still...

Ripping of side buttons with tight cases?

Putting on snap on cases, how do i put them on without ruining the side buttons? I think the reason my volume rocker is loose is puting on and of my krusell colorcover..

Use softer cases or stop taking off the case.

Choice would be to expand the slots or soften them and that increases the risk of the phone falling out of the case .

On a swedish droid forum a member gave me a smart way of putting on these kinde of cases with an credit card. Have not tested it yet but.. My volume rocker is abit loose should i be worried? Its not that loose but im afraid it will just pop of.
Anyway you do it, there is still small chances you will ruin the volume rocker. If you stop taking off your case, you can stop worrying about the volume rocker

I use this case from best buy. It is probably the lightest and thinnest case for this phone.

I know it is expensive, but I got it for free and that is why I am using it.
When I put or take off my case I try to start from one of the bottom corners then work my way up then snap it on the other bottom corner and work my way up although it's such a pain to take off it always feel like I'm gonna break the glass..

Try this. Open up your nexus 7. Lightly press on the messed up speaker. If it is the same issue I have you'll hear the speaker pop back in.

I think you're asking how to take apart the nexus 7? The easiest way to find out how would be to look for a YouTube video on opening the nexus 7. There are many.
How i did it... Slide your fingernail or an opening tool along the crease. The snaps holding the back in place should click apart. Slowly and carefully move your fingernail or tool around the entire device until the cover comes off. Be very careful not to break any of the clips on the lid or in the device.

Creaky volume button

Just got my nexus 4 today. Love it except for the very creaky volume buttons. The slightest touch makes it creak a lot, whether I'm pressing up, down, or even just resting my finger on it. Makes the phone feel cheap over all. Anybody else? Should I try to exchange it?
Edit...just realized its the power button too. Bummer.

Send my Nexus Back ?!

Hey XDA,
i bought my Nexus a few weeks ago, but now i found something strange, if i press at the back glass directly under the camera (where the glass begins) its klicking (dont know how to say it) maybe its like the phones with plastic , some make the dame sound if you press at the back. Do u have this too ? Should i send my N4 back ?
best regards
(I hope u understand what i mean but im german and only 14)

I wouldn't worry about it, but that's just me.
So just don't press the back glass. I swear people are so OCD
I'm sure Google will deny such a repair request.

Why would you press against it in the first place? Leave the phone alone and enjoy it.

Once you figure it's there, it's hard to ignore it.

You're right. I just remember the creaking near the USB connector when I press on it.

Are you sure it's not the auto focus clicking that some have been talking about?
As for me I don't hear any sounds when I press the back of my N4 near the camera lens...

Yup, if I press on the back in the lower-left quadrant of the phone (as you look at it from the back), the glass deforms a tiny bit (you can see if in the reflection) and the phone makes a "click" or "snap" sound.
If I look at the black bezel on the side near where I press, I can see it move a tiny bit, like it's snapping out of place slightly.
Who cares. Put a CruzerLite case on it and all is well.

Screenshot shortcut

Hello everyone,
On my 6p, the traditional power+volume down shortcut doesn't produce screenshot... Do you have an idea why, and how to fix this, or an other easy way to make screenshot?
Works here... Try take ur case of if u have one on?
Erf... Work without the case... How the f***...
Mine won't work with case either. I'm using the case from the Play Store, the one with the kinda fabric back. It's pretty annoying.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Annoying, and strange... Others functions on the same buttons work OK...
Hold it down longer?
If I hold it longer, the phone shut down
I have the exact case and have no issue taking screenshot with it on. Power + Vol Down

I was having the same problem and also have the same case with the fabric on the back. I found if you press at the top of the power button instead of the middle it works every time
