Hello, I've got a question. I assume, that this little white square sticker in first picture is water damage indicator. Am I right?
And I wonder what is the difference between these two in pictures? One is black and another one is white. Is it possible that white one was drown? Or maybe these even aren't what I think? If that then what are they for?

Mine had a NFC Icon.
Maybe is the NFC indicator?
It's NFC icon

Just a sticker
It's there to show you where the NFC nodule is located. You can peel it off, or leave it on... it's totally harmless.

This is only NFC sticker on cover battery. You can remove it if you want
(The water damage indicator is still inside phone and never on cover battery)
Here is where you find the indicator:
Where did you get that from? Can you share it?

Some reviews I see the sticker containing the serial numbers and such and some I don't. Are you guys removing them or are they just not on some?Personally I prefer a clean back with just the LG and Nexus logos.
When I got mine today it had the clear protective sticker on the back. I was gonna leave it but the imie number ruined the look IMHO..but now its finger print magnet
Edit.. Also noticed my phone didn't come with any plastics on the sides and the bottom I remember seeing reviews where it took like 5 minutes to peel all the plastics lol

It's a sticker attached to the "screen" protector on the back. It has the phone's imei printed on it.

Mines came with only a front and back plastic film. No sides or anything .. No Imei number

At first I was like wtf is this but then I realized it was just a plastic back that peels off.. It has IMEI but that is also located on the sim slot.
I'm just curious, has anyone ever gotten their Nexus letters at the back removed, as in the shiny black vinyl that covers them? The letters N, E and X were completely peeled off in my case in a matter of weeks when I was holding it, along with the adhesive.

Nope, but I've had a case on it since day 1...:thumbup:
Odd. Hasn't happened to me. (Happened to every BlackBerry Curve 8520 I had, though. Damn, that phone sucked.)
Wonder if it's affected by how you hold it. Definitely return it anyway.
Wait, I didn't even know that could happen, I though they were like part of the plastic.
You got a picture of it?
Do you have a wireless charger?
I have one and I have noticed that after charging it is kind of warm on the back and I have to wipe some kind of stain around some off the letters. Now that you mention your letters falling off it gets me
thinking that the glue could be melting away or something.
My N7 is only 7 weeks old and I'm using a Fatboy pillow for charging.

I had this same problem just a few days ago I noticed like a sticky residue seeping from the letters on the back and part of the letter lifting. I just removed all the sticker and cleaned away the sticky residue 'see attached pic' I actually prefer it without glued on sticky letters. Looks good I think.

Wireless charging here and my letters are falling off now also.

I use the wireless charging feature as well - no issues, and it spends all night - every night - on the charger.
I didn't know that there was plastic in the letters to make it shiny. When mine finally fall out on their own, I think I'll get some model paint and paint the letters in white. Or maybe bright red. Just to be different.
Really? They fall? lol, I though they were pretty much part of the case :b

Wow I didn't even know this was possible. Makes me not want to use wireless charging if it's going to destroy the design of my device.

Been using wireless charging from the day I got it and the letters are still firmly on there. Touchscreen though, now thats another issue.

Yup, it looks like this. I was thinking about removing the rest so it looks uniform again the hollow letters do look nice, though. I don't own a wireless charger so I don't think that's the issue.

Now that you mention it and I saw the picture, you're right, the hollow letters doesn't look bad.

No wireless charging here either it's just glued on stickers that are losing stick over time as they heat and cool.
I'ts just like black tape.
Sure it looked cool glossy but doesnt bother me, I just picked out my letters with my nail and cleaned it up.
I like the 'indented' look nexus on the back.
What assembly dates do you have on yours? Perhaps they just changed to a less strong glue or even applied less glue due to the first batches problem of stains/glue residue.
Well, the worst thing happened, I dropped my i9500. I would rather die. Now there's a red line on my screen on the left side of screen. It dropped on its base (the battery side) yet, it affected the screen. It's static, stays, changes color according to the app I'm using. Like right now it's red on the keyboard, but kinda green on the chrome app. I'm sorry I don't know how to view screen shots, but I've attached two .png file.
My question, can I make this right, or do I have to take it to the Samsung people?
Oh man! I just viewed the screenshot from my computer, and I don't see any line. So, basically it's somewhere below the screen, where the software doesn't capture it in screenshots.
Send it in to Samsung
Just give it to the Samsung people if you still have warranty

Unfortunately i think you cracked your display. Fortunately it still works. Screenshot doesn't capture it because it's physical. Not a software issue. I payed almost 200 euros to change my display. It's not covered by warranty

Dude, the screen is not broken. Something's physically disturbed from the inside. And anyways, here at my place, people are stupid, so they'll just change my screen for free, 'cause they think I got warranty.

What do u think by seeing this glass ?
i have bought brand new Galaxy S5 and this is the result. i think samsung provided me fake gorila glass?
What exactly are we looking at? The yellow tint that is your screen
I believe the OP is talking about the scratch at the mid - bottom of the screen, or what?

Definitely looks like the screen protector is causing it. Can you remove the screen protector and see if that removes the tint?

Looks like a protector is on. You should remove it and check.
Indeed. It's just the factory applied protector is coming away isn't it? Hard to tell from those pics with all the reflection. Down on a flat table would have been easier to see

There is definately a screen protector applied, just look near the sensors around the screen you can see the parts where thers is air under the protector :silly::silly:

No brother , I have not put any screen protector.
that is not bubble , that is coating fade away .
So sad I have got manufacturer defected phone.
It REALLY looks like some kind of protective film. Are you sure it's not? I've never heard of "coating fading away" before.
Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk
I do not see anything remotely looking like a screen protector or anything like that, that said, it is just an unfortunate production malfunction which can always happen and so obvious you don't have to worry about it and can just return it to get a replacement. I do not really see the need for a whole thread on such a problem.
Would I feel bummed out about it, of course, but these things happen and are easily solved. Thread closed?
Will a new digitizer rectify this problem
Anyone? Looks like a brown burn mark at the bottom right.
Honestly I do not know, it looks like the screen is burnt but I do not know what would cause it to burn other then the battery. The battery is located near the burn mark.
