Not warranty, but does it work? You could always change the volume on screen.

There doesn't seem to be a dent on the body apart from the paint chipped off. Maybe the rocker is just weak. But still i doubt any warranty.
dont think so
just asked at the shop and they said they wont place it under warranty
anyways, you could always ask them

No Problem! In the one x forum someone had the same problem and send it Tod HTC and they have canged hieß motherboard because he was in root. HTC really sucks. Next time i'll buy samsung. I think other cellphone repair services are much better! And they don't change the motherboard

Now its annoying me as well, i have another sensation and when i place the new cover the creaking stops, but i have a skin protector on this one so im reluctant to change it !.... oh I had this phone 2 days! lol
I phoned Vodafone about this, and they are aware of the problem. They told me to pop to a store, and they would change the back housing
Question is how long will it been till that starts creaking!!?? Fml lol

When you are referring to the back housing are you referring to the cover or parts on the phone itself?

I'm refering to the back cover mate around near the search key. The creaking is affecting the right side of the phone all the way to the middle of the screen.. its really annoying

Here's a quick and easy fix: Buy this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and get a cotton swab. Soak the tip in the dry lube. Then rub the tip where I've shown in this picture:
Phone feels brand new.
Can this be claimed under warranty? The creaking is caused by the cover having a bit of a gap (<1mm) at the bottom, right under the serach button.
So there I was, sitting around angry at my phone for the whole back cover issue, staring at my phone I noticed a piece of the bezel "chipped off." I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like this or not, but I took a trip to Best Buy and didn't see it on the display model.
Anyone else have this hole?

It is normal I have it on mine and the other sensations I have seen. I think it is a sensor of some sorts.
It's one of the sensors. we got 3 sensation in the family and they have it.

people lie man.but who knows
everything is possible.Hope die last.
Here in Spain it's possible. I swear.
I hear it's only possible if you're rooted.
Breaking news: Just heard my wife's sister was in the post office today and she was sitting next to a women who had been in the local library, and she'd overheard the greengrocer telling the butcher that he'd seen a documentary on Discovery where Winston Churchill recounted a tale of a story he'd heard about a time-travelling clam who'd spilled under interrogation that it is indeed possible.
If you take the original posting into account, you'll notice that one is incredibly random, and the other is a heart-warming story about a time-travelling clam.
wtf?haha
Churchill must had some rooted device too and coz of that i will change my mind and say its possible (wtf i'm talking about :S)
I'm not really sure if its possible yet any ideas

In my opinion, yes. You just need to select that menu, scroll down to the drop-down menu thing and select 'Possible'.
If the 'possible' option is not available then it would would appear I was mistaken.
volume down + home button + draw cycles 3 times with left hand and here u are
..certainly possible,
although you might need to switch 'Wax' on and then 'Wax' off..
I knew it!!!!

Can I say something?!
You could use a mouse button - the left or right one, they are way to small and not so noticeable. And more they are just like the native button, working more on gesture - long press shuts down, short press lock screen, than the physical state.And try to make a small hole on the phone in order to hide it as much as possible. And use some sugru or hot glue to fix it well.
Here's the photo of the mouse button I was reffering to. Sorry it's just big, original file, not elaborated.
Anyway good job that you got it solved.
I have HTC Sensation and from last 2/3 days I am having Touchscreen Issues..
Below Of the display touch is not working and on the LED Backlit buttons , are working but have to press the side of the Keys to make it work.. It seems the keys got shifted..
Below is the pic to give example..
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In the above Image, The yellow part is not working , have to press just above the LED keys to make the keys work and it presses 2 words instead of one..
In the red part keys are working , but have to press somewhere in sides dont know exactly where but hit and try makes it work ( after 2/3 times trying) on the green area..
Other than this the other area touch is working fine...
Please help how to fix it ?
What is the background of this problem? What triggered this? Any ROM flashed? Or charged with a wrong charger?

nop was cleaning the sides of the display as there was some dust... cleaning with a soft brush , and haven't given any pressure on the switches or the area where the prob occurred.. its simply occurred when I tried to switch on after cleaning was done

Look on eBay. Its not terrible if you do the work yourself.
If you need to have a shop do it you will need to call one and get a price quote.
