Received my replacment Sensation yesterday and noticed it made a slight noise when I touched the bottom right corner area of the screen (near the search button) After using it today for an extended period the creaking became louder and louder and also has moved up so that it will creak if you touch the screen on any portion from the middle of the right hand side on down.. The creaking noise is steadily increasing in amplitude. I have checked to make sure the cover is on correctly and it is . I have pulled the back cover off numerous times and it was of no help. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I just got off the phone with T Mobile (they could hear the creaking if I touched it while on the phone with them)and they are sending out another one.
mod please delete this one as I tried to edit the first post of this subject and it somehow just made a new one instead. Apologies -do not kwow what I did wrong?

I have a Sprint Touch Pro. It makes this annoying snapping sound when pressing down on the call button on the bottom left hand corner, as if the chrome faceplate isn't completely or loosely screwed into the black under-pinning piece. Does anyone else have this issue?
I have a similar problem

My keyboard makes a cheap creaking noise when I type. If I press the battery cover in the area around the camera, I hear the same noise. Is there any simple fix for this, it's pretty annoying.
Otherbeing, I think what you hear is the crackle from the speaker....I have it too!
battery noise
for a simple fix to the battery noise, (this is gonna sound really cheap)
fold up a piece of paper and put it on the battery and then put the back cover on... it works...
might take you two or three tries to get the right size and set, but once you have it down, its easy,
and yea it works... (yes i know this is really cheap sounding)
Hi,
I've had my Nexus S for less than 4 weeks, and I just noticed today that the top right corner of the screen seems to have some give when you press on it. It apparently just started happening now... Anyone else have this issue with their phone? I'm wondering if I should just run to Best Buy and have them exchange the phone for me before it's too late...
Thanks,
Mike
I don't have that problem with mine but in your case looks like you might have to take that trip to best buy

if you look at it, does the surface of the top corner part raised a bit compared to the other corners or sides?
I ask because I tried to press gently on the corners and also the sides and there's a very slight give. It maybe because of the type of screen (plastic?) causing the give when pressed?
yeah it appears to be ever so slighlty raised, and has a very slight give...
any word on if this is normal? I have the same issue with the bottom capacitive side....it is noticeably lose sometimes, I can push it then it becomes tight...then the capacitive buttons wont work unless I turn off the screen then turn it back on.
My 2 week old Nexus S just started doing this. It feels like the screen is attached with glue and the screen has separated from the frame. I can press on it and it sticks for a moment, but if press a minute later it clicks again.
My phone had the same problem.. Upper right screen was lifting ever so slightly. I was passed my thirty days so i couldn't bring it back to bestbuy. My only option was to send it to samsung for repair. The problem was that they had it for almost three weeks and when i got it back the screen was still lifting up. I had to send it back out and almost three weeks later (again) i got it back and it was fixed. They ended up replacing the PBA. Not exactly sure what that is but the phone is fixed.

If you are doing a warranty exchange they will not send the back cover, which is likely the problem. If you have nothing else wrong with your phone I would not risk getting another one with potential other problems. Call HTC and get them to send you a new back cover instead.
I called them and told them my paint was peeling off the back cover and they are sending me a new one for Free. I'ts worth a try and even if it doesn't work you will have a extra back cover.
In the end it should not have this issue, but 3 of mine after a few times opening and general usage gets loose. Others have said putting some tape on the inside of the case solved the creaking for them. There is another thread on that here as well.
Double post???? or you just get all excited??

Thanks so much for the kind and informative reply. I did a couple of searches on screen creaking etc and nothing came up similar to what I have experienced. would you have a link to that thread or the search verbiage I might use? Would it be "cover loose or screen noises" ? Thanks so much.

Creaking on mine is pretty bad. I had to put tape all over the cover to stop it. But I'm not going to exchange it.

Does anyone have an issue where if you squeeze the phone(or push on the screen slightly as if you were playing a game and getting pretty into it) the back cover creaks and the screen pushes into it slightly. It mostly happens on the left side of the device(the side the volume buttons is on) but also in the top right corner. My device was never dropped and I don't remove the back cover often. I have only had the phone for just over a month. Just curious if you guys have the same issue. I contacted HTC just to see if this was the way the phone was made and they basically blew me off and told me if was by design...I don't feel that it is.
This is a new issue. I am sure you are the first person to report this. Thank you.
On closer inspection the screen on the left side actually flexes slightly and the center of the screen makes a clicky noise if pressed slightly(almost like it's flexing and touching the back display?) This was all tested with the back cover off. The back cover certainly added and makes this more noticeable but it's a combination of both.

Was that sarcasm? Sorry if it's been reported before...
Its a known issue..its like this because sensation is NOT unibody construction and because of bad quality control..majority of users are probably not experiencing this but the rest of us...

He isn't speaking about the bottom right corner creaking which is a common issue for 90% (imo) of the sensation users
On topic:
That's is the first time I hear about creaking in the middle/center of the screen while back cover is not on, I would definitely get it back right now for repair or replacement
When I bought it I heard creaking sound but it was weak
Now it's very noisy and I am hearing it everytime touch it in the right side and the left
What should I do ?
Sorry for my bad English
I had one unit that did that out of the box but eventually settled in with use. You can try placing it screen down on a towel and pressing throughout the back to make sure it's seated.
It worked thanks
