Uneven SIM Tray - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I received my Galaxy S6 (international version G920i) purchased from eBay last night. I noticed today that the SIM tray on my phone does not sit flush with the frame. It's pop up just so slightly on the top. Did any of you also having this issue? It's really annoying as I would feel it almost every time I press the power button which is right on top of it...

[AT&T Fuze] Control plate coming loose?

I have had my Fuze for about a week and I notice today that the control plate (D-pad, call, end call, etc. buttons) is loosening. I can push the right side (end call and back buttons) up and touches the edge of the screen. The left side is still pretty tight. I am wondering if that much free play on the left is normal or not. All the buttons still work, but kinda worry when this happen on a expensive device after just one week of usage.
I have had 2 and had the AT&T store open up another 2 for me to check. The first one I had for 24 hours and the screen was tight, my new one the screen is loose and the 2 I had them open were loose. I guess its just a trait of the phone.
Thanks for the info. Nothing is perfect I guess.

Home key rubbing against screen.

Hey guys, does your home key rub against the top screen portion? Mine is probably slightly angled by less than .5mm and it causes the home key to rub against the button part of the screen. You can feel it, it feels different than pressing the back arrow button.
I had quite similar home key issue as the glossy cover on it started to roll up from the upper left corner (which is near to the top screen portion). The rolling area was smaller than 1 square mm and the good thing was that it was not elastic at all so I just pushed it down again with she stylus
If it is just the cover then maybe try coaxing it back (not the button, just cover of it) with some finer instrument than the stylus that would fit to the slit. The material IS quite pliant!
No mine doesn't rub at all. how long have you had the phone? I'd return it, and get another that doesn't rub.
I'm with sprint and had the same issue with the first two TP's I had. I used my 30 day no questions asked to return them.
This third one I got day b4 yesterday is sweet. All the issues I had with the other two are gone. Phone is nice and sturdy and is a great quality build.
I'd swap out for sure.
Yeah I would get another one, but the thing is, I got an unlock code for this one through ATT. I personally don't have ATT myself but paid a friend to get it for me. So if I get a replacement, I don't think ATT will give out another unlock code. I have had it for about a week now.

[Q] Screen appears loose in the top left corner of Nexus S

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
Sent from my Nexus S
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.

Light leaking/bleeding and Gap on the Galaxy S7 Edge

Hi Guys,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Gold which I purchased while I was traveling from the Uae.
The phone had an issue with the home button and I had to eventually send it back to get it repaired.
The service center in the UAE replaced the entire screen and front panel of the phone and now everything works fine.
But i noticed the other day that there is a gap in the screen and metal frame of the phone on the left side.
And through this gap i can see the connector of the volume button.
The gap is larger on the left side and very minimum on the right side.
Through this gap light leaks and its very annoying.
I can easily slide a piece of paper through the gap but I cannot slide a thick business card.
I am extremely concerned about two things:
1) Water getting in through the gaps
2)The light leaking making my screen and device faulty.
I can see the light leak during the day when the screen is maxed at brightness although it is more visible in a darker environment and also the LED notification light bleeds just a bit from the top gap between the screen and frame.
I was wondering if this was normal?
I pray to god that it is as my warranty expires in 2months and I have no one to send my phone back with or otherwise I need to spend 300$ for a repair.
I have attached pictures... Do let me know what you think.
Thanks

Water resistance is definitely gone, so don't get it wet. I did the exact same thing with an old iPhone I had and when they sent it back that hadn't fitted the screen in properly. Do you have a local shop, you could ask them to pop it back in for you?
Light leaking through edge will not damage your screen. If you mean moisture fettering inside your phone his could become an issue over time, depending on the environment you expose it to.
You can buy screen replacement tool kits (no actual screen) on ebay for a few dollars, you could do it yourself if your warranty is not valid in new country, it's probably just some component (seal probably) not properly seated that is stopping the case closing properly

Question S21+ screen protector (panzerglass) problem

Hey.
In December I bought the s21+ 256gb device. I got a spigen clear case with borders extending over the screen with aircushion technology and I bought a PanzerGlass screen protector.
In the shop they cleaned the phone with the special cloth, used the dust remover thingy and placed the glass perfectly on the screen. There were no bubbles. A week or so later I notice an airbubble by the right edge, parallel to the volume buttons. I tried to push it out with a credit card to no avail.
I went back to the store and they replaced the Panzerglass free of charge. About two weeks later there, again, is a bubble in the same spot (next to the buttons). And, again, pushing it out withba credit card doesn't help.
I know if i go back, they'll replace it, but if it's just going to happen again, then i see no point in doing that.
My brother bought s21 base and the Panzerglass in the same store, at the same time and he had no problems with it so far.
Also, even with the screen sensitivity setting turned on, the finger print scanner is pretty inconsistent with the panzerglass (before and after the bubble appeared). Without it, its amazingly fast, way faster than it was on my s10+.
So have any of you had the same issue with Panzerglass? Does anyone what could be the problem? Maybe just a bad batch of paznerglasses with faulty adhesive in the same spot? Or could there be something wrong with my phone or its display? I didnt notice any unusual heating even when playing games. What would you recommend?
Thanks for any help
