[Q] Loose screen in Samsung Galaxy S

Hey all.
I've tried to search from internet if somebody has the same problem as I do with my Galaxy S but I could not find anything. Seems that my Screen is loose from the right side of the screen. If i press gently the screen from the right middle it bends and makes this clicking sound. I haven't dropped or hit my device and it seems that this screen movement is getting worse all the time.
Has anyone else had any build quality problem or am I just unlucky?
I think is an issue covered by the warranty.
Go to the dealer and change it. Fast.
If it clicks probably it has something that is pressing on it.
you could find your self in the position to crack it.

Clicking noise when pressing on the screen

Press or squeeze your phone so that you're applying pressure to the screen. Doesn't have to be a super hard press. Just press and let go. I hear a clicking noise when I let go of the screen. Almost seems like something is sticking when I press down and then let go. Anyone else have this issue? I'm on my second z3. I like the phone but its starting to bother me how there are quality control issues. My first z3 had light leakage all along the left side. The one I currently have has two tiny pinprick spots of light leakage which is fine but now I have this possible problem. I know the phone is waterproof already as I dunked it right when I got it. Just wondering if this will cause future problems.
No clicking noise here.
Just realized this only happens when pressing towards the bottom of the screen and not the top. The only reason I checked was because someone else on reddit has the same issue.

omg! i have the same issue. press the screen between the volume key and shutter key. you can hear a squeaky noise:crying:
I have it too. But doesn't affect the phone performance so I'm ignoring it.
I have it near the bottom speakers. After pressing a while, it stops, so I am assuming it's something sticky down there holding the screen.
Mine doesn't appear to have this issue so far.
No noise here, although I have clicking noises when softly pressing the power button :crying: it also moves slightly to the left and right :crying: :crying: :crying: anyone with the same issues?
Y'all have to look up the definition of "issue".

List of problems so far?

So I'm receiving my 6P tomorrow, and I wanna test everything that's been going wrong (yellow screen, lower back lip, bluetooth sync, headphones not working, random reboots, etc) and figure out if I should RMA it asap
Might seem obvious but check for dents in the aluminum, especially near the power/volume buttons.
I could live with all the little flaws..... But my screen was slightly "warped" at the bottom right corner and no Tempered Glass Screen Protectors would stay attached to that corner.
RMA in process.
Problem: No problems.
Sent from my Nexus 6P
- Pink hue to screen / Yellow hue to screen
- Screen flush-ness to side bezels
- Lower grill speaker being significantly quieter than the upper grill speaker
- (As posted above) Dents/bends in metal near power/volume rocker
- Camera not focusing well
- Figerprint scanner not working while charging
- Strange software issues (I.E. fingerprint software missing, random reboots, shaky bluetooth)
I'm sure i'm missing a few...
Haven't had anything that I would say is a problem with build or software. All my issues have been with 3rd party items, case with to small a hole to plug in headphone jack and poorly cut screen protectors. The 6P itself has been wonderful so far
I've been having speaker issues. The bottom speaker is lower than the top speaker. I tried to RMA the device but Google says that's the way the phone was designed.

Proximity sensor doing weird stuff since installing SlimKat on my Samsung Galaxy S3.

I searched, and didn't find any other posts about this, but the search engine here seemed a bit flaky.
I installed SlimKat 4.4.4.build.8.0 on my Samsung Galaxy S3, um, last year I think it was. I had previously been using SlimBean, having dumped the original Samsung ROM fairly shortly after I bought it. Since then there has been weirdness that relates to the proximity sensor.
I used E-Robot to disable the screen when anything is close to the proximity sensor. So put it face down, screen off; put it in my shirt pocket face inwards, screen off; leave it on the desk face up so I can see the screen, screen on. Naturally - hold it to your ear on a phone call, screen off, though that's a basic function of the proximity sensor, it did that anyway. On the flip side, if it was blanked and you uncover the sensor, the screen would come back on, but it would be the Lightning Launcher lock screen that I prefer. I got used to Lightning Launcher from SlimBean.
After installing SlimKat, when covering the sensor, first the volume controls show for a few seconds, THEN the screen goes off. Coming out again, the Lightning Launcher lock screen would not show. This got a bit awkward before I figured it out. I usually put my phone in my shirt pocket screen inward, so that the sensor triggers the screen disable. But now, since the volume control is showing for a few seconds first, I discovered that my chest would brush against the screen, randomly adjusting one of the volumes as it went in my pocket. Since I usually have the volume turned all the way up, the only way was down. I missed a few phone calls that way before figuring out why my phone wasn't ringing.
So I have disabled that E-Robot thing now. BTW, there's no way to turn the SlimKat screen blanker off? I would have tried that first, but could only find how to set the timeout, not how to turn it off.
More recently, though this may be a new hardware problem, but it's a big coincidence ... now the proximity sensor refuses to work at all. It always thinks it's covered. This is a really big pain, since as mentioned above, the proximity sensor is designed to disable the screen when you hold it to your ear, only now it disables it the moment the phone call starts, AND refuses to enable it after the phone call is over. The sensor still thinks it's being held to your ear, the screen stubbornly refuses to switch on, no matter what buttons I press. Only way I can get out of that state is to pull the battery. This is not good. (On the other hand, this sort of thing is why I always get phones with swappable batteries, as a very experienced computer dude, I know that sometimes you just have to kill the power.) So anyone I call gets to hear my swearing as I rip the case open and pull the battery out, before I can end the phone call. Though pulling the battery naturally ends the call. lol
About the same time I noticed the proximity sensor no longer working, I noticed the up volume button also isn't working. That could have been broken for awhile, I rarely use either volume control. Part of the reason for doing this entire proximity sensor disabling the screen thing is so I could avoid wearing out the physical buttons. The S3 is old, but I like to keep my computer hardware running for a long time.
Sooooo, proximity sensor and volume controls interact in odd ways, then both fail. That's a pretty big coincidence. Though having just written that, I have come up with a new theory. Maybe some common part of the physical circuitry for the sensor and the button was going flaky, such that the sensor triggering sent noise through the up volume control, triggering the on screen volume controls before blanking. Still, a coincidence that it only happened after installing SlimKat. Also, wouldn't this trigger both volume controls and screen disable at the same time, rather than within a few seconds? No idea how Lightning Launcher fits into this new theory.
So I'm still not sure what's causing this, or how to fix it. Other than going back to SlimBean to see if that fixes anything. It doesn't look like I can go forward, 4.4.4 looks like the last SlimRom made for the S3. At least according to OTA.
Anyone got any ideas? "Buy a new phone" isn't a good answer for me right now, can't afford it.
onefang,
I have a S3 that I ran the Slimkat 4.4.4 build 9 on for a while (9 months). There is a known issue with the CM package (used in SlimKat) that causes the volume button not to work correctly. When you are on a call, the call volume can not be raised or lowered. There may be other issues. I am currently running the CyanogenModCM12.1-20151117-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DAO1K6-d2att rom and the performance is much better than Slimkat.
