I've just received my Nexus One today, but found out there are two hairline cracks around the headphone jack, is there anybody have the same problem?
I had the same problem with my iPhone 3GS before...
they look perfectly straight
are you sure they aren't designed that way?
I'm thinking they're just there from the mold they used to cast that piece.
I have those too... didnt even notice it... I think its part of the hardware though from the looks of it.
I have the same; looks like it's definitely from the mold they used and not actual cracks.
You may now breathe a sigh of relief!

Ditto.
it doesn't look like a defect. i was about to cut a mofo if it was.
WOW! OP, your and Id10t!
I'm really sorry, i never try to offend anyone its just that this question and looking at the pic got to me.
I got those too.
I have it on mine too. it's very tiny. I hardly notice.

wow your very kind
please excuse someone who was afraid that his 530 dollar investment was flawed.
Mine doesn't have those
If it is a crack this suffers from the same thing as the x1 xperia

Same here, got mine today
I didnt notice till I looked at you picture then my phone but yeah, it's just part of the mold.
Mine doesn't have those marks. But it does look like something caused during the manufacturing process.
ive got em... had to get a bright flashlight to see em but i have them too, and they dont go down into the jack so its not a crack
Okay, so on the back of the ballistic phone. If you're looking at the back, on the upper right side. Almost directly across from where the camera is is there a small indentation or change in the curve? I'm wondering if I have a defective phone. Or if that's normal. You don't notice it until you notice it then you can't un notice it lol

I have the same thing. It feels like there's something back there. I just assumed it's normal.
Looked @ mine & my wife's 64gb model... Just don't have this. No change or indentation at all.

I can push my thumb in a spot there slightly, but not matter how I view it I can't see any change in curvature.
Nevermind
I also have the 64gb nylon and mine has that thing too.
I can't see it but I can feel it, there's a teardown video I haven't watched yet, would probably give us a clue as to what that is.

Here's the OP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/general/motorola-droid-turbo-xt1254-disassembly-t2926707
Looks like there are some ridges to the right of the camera, doesn't look like anything unexpected.

Sweet. Yeah looks like the part I'm feeling is the top right screw for that top plastic piece.
I must be blind / fingers numb or something.

I went back to Verizon and had them pull out another 64 gig. It didn't have it. But there display model did. Non the less it bothered me so I had them replace it.
Had an extra red back cover. Decided to take the risk and see if I could remove the logos. Used 5000 grit wet sand paper (used for headlights) and a lot of patience. And wallah no logo. I made sure to go real light on it so I don't affect the soft touch coating. Turned out way better than I expected. I thought there would actually be some marks left or a change in the texture. But nope, looks and feels the same just no logo
Nice job! Looks great! :good:
That's what I like about the ballistic nylon. No Verizon logos.
Well done. :good:
I can't stand how far Verizon goes with slapping their logo all over. Especially the poor phones that suffer the fate of a Verizon logo under the display.
I saw someone that suggested using clear tape and granulated sugar to remove logos, never tried it, but seems like it could work.

Interesting. Can you elaborate a little? Do you just put the sugar on it and tape it on? And he eats the laser etching away? Lol or do you treat it more like a sandpaper.
Looked like he used it as sandpaper. Sugar was aggressive enough to remove the painted logo, but not harsh enough to damage the plastic.
I don't understand why the Logo is so maddening to some people.
I don't have a logo (Ballistic) but I did on my last phone. Never bothered me.

It bothers people because of bad placement and also if u bought the phone out right you should have say on what is on it or not. verizon being the way they are is the reason so many are leaving to go to another provider.
Nice photoshopped pic. lol

This is my personally reason. Let's say you bought a BMW m5. So you expect the BMW logo. You expect the m5 logo. Now imagine, smack dab in the center of your hood is the dealership you bought the car from logo. Verizon is the dealer. They provide a service I pay for. I don't feel they have the right to advertise on something they didn't build.
And besides all that..I think it looks cleaner.

Exactly!
At least they didn't try this on the turbo! I don't think anything can top the note 2

Hey everyone.. Just stopping in with a quick question. Have been searching for an answer and found this discussion...
I have the Turbo BN 32GB and it has the VZW logo directly above the metal Droid logo on the back.
I have seen quite a few other BN versions without the VZW logo so I'm wondering how I go about removing it?
It appears to be applied to the BN similar to the way an iron-on patch is applied to a shirt. I would say it is certainly removable, just no idea how to attack this project. I obviously do not want to damage the nylon in the process.
The main reasons I am wanting to remove it are I believe the BN backing looks phenomenal without it and I am using a PureGear clear case which puts the BN on prominent and permanent display. Would look so much more slick without the VZW sticker plastered on the back. (Tried including a picture but that is a no-go)
Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Is anyone's screen slightly raised up a bit near the volume and power buttons? Like maybe a few mm or less? This is my 2nd replacement, which also has this issue. I'm not sure if I should RMA again if others will end up like this. Is it normal, I would like to hear from others who have the 6P? If it won't fall off over time, I think I can live with it lol
Mine is not

Yes, i can see that at the top of the device glass is flush with metal rim, and on the side i raised 1mm, maybe less. But if you don't like it try to contact google and get new one again...

Considering my first unit was like this, I doubt the next one will be much dramatically better. I can live with it, but I am worried that it might get worse over time.
Mine is not.
Hello guys!
The fingerprint scanner on my Graphite Nexus 6P is another color than the rest of the body? For me it seems to be greener than the body.
Is it the same for you?
Anyone?
Can you show us a picture.

Build date on this one is 04/12/2015.
Its suppose to be a different colour/shade of grey

Did you checked the photos I provided? Are you sure this is normal? I did not see this on my first model
Come on, guys...please someone with a 6P confirm if this is how it is for you or not...
It all looks normal to me. Also the fingerprint scanner will reflect light differently than the phone body because it's recessed into the body of the phone. Which in turn can make it look different. But yours looks normal. The bar at the bottom is supposed to be slightly diff than the body of the phone to give a two tone effect.

so, ppl are telling you it's normal, but you're still asking ppl to tell you it's normal?
ok

Delete the pics with your iMEI and S/N number sticker displaying. That is not something you share with anyone except your carrier.

Ok, I did this. What about the problem I have? So far only one nexus user told me it is normal. I need more opinions.

its normal. you also have to consider they are different materials which will affect the color a little. I have aluminum and its the same. scanner and bottom are different shades. nothing to worry about

I might be a little OCD ambout my phone. The reason i am a little worried is because I do not remember my first unit having this. But on the first one I had a bad pinkish display....on this one the display is good...but i noticed today the different colors.

Yes...it does. It is not about functionality tho. I just do not know if this is how it is supposed to look. As I said I do not remember my first unit (built in Octomber) to have two different colors. Or at least it was more of the same shade. That is why this one seems weird to me.

It could very possibly be a different shade. But I am just saying that unless it is effecting the usage of the device, why does it matter. It's not like you could trade it in on the basis that the fingerprint scanner paint is a slightly different shade then your first model. You are hyper focused on a non issue. Are you worried that you got a refurbished one. Because you probably did. And that would definitely explain the difference in paint. But still, you have a fully functional device.

Well yea...I am kinda worried it was a refurbished device. But the thing is...I do not know if it was indeed refurbished or not. The guy at the shop where I requested a replacement opened the second one in front of my eyes. He cut the exterior seal and also the seal on the box. So...might it be refurbished? How can I tell?

Yeah it is hard to say. I would assume it's new, but maybe they have refurbs stocked from huawei on hand for trade outs. I don't really know how it works. I have gotten refurbished phones in the past though and have not experienced negative side effects. My HTC m7 which I had for the full 2 years was one of my favorite phones. My first model did crap out though in the first week and I had to mail it in to swap it and definitely got a refurbished one. But it still works fine to this day. I could see where they had glued it back together at the top though and it made me uneasy for the first few months.

This is a little bit off topic...but is it legal to sell refurbished phones without saying they are refurbished? The shop I bought it from claims it maight be a new phone. Idk if they collaborate with Huawei. Nexus devices are not so Popular in Romania. The 6P launched here on something arount 22nd of December (I bought it on 23rd...but the phone was manufactured in October).
Back on topic...do you think it looks normal? Still waiting for more replys from guys that own a Graphite Nexus 6P
