squeeky back cover

[coltsbro84]

Squeeky, creaky, cheap, or flimsy. Whatever you call it, its very appearent on my Htc Rezound. It happens when I turn the power on or off, and it happens when I press a volume key.

Does anyone have this issue? Do you know of a fix? And should Verizon replace my back cover?

Your not alone, you're a new member of the majority of Rezound owners. That's just due to build quality, so unless it is driving you mad and it's worth gambling on a replacement that won't guarantee you a device that doesn't make odd noises, go ahead and swap. If not, grin and bare it.

when I called them about it, they said that I could bring it to the store and if the store could replicate the problem, then I could get a new back cover. I doubt a new back cover would do much, you can put electrical tape inside the back cover or get a case.

I placed a piece of business card the size of the battery between the battery and the back cover and it reduced the squeak quite a bit.

I used some tiny strips of electrical friction tape. It's a bit thicker than electrical tape, and is a tiny bit tacky on both sides, so it kind of holds both sides of the cover together, but you can still get the cover off pretty easily. I used the strips where the creaks were at. Only took 3, 1/8" wide, maybe 1/2" long in a couple strategic spots.

Could also try getting a new battery cover from VZW and see how that works. Mine relaly doesnt do this to much but then again its always in my Seidio Surface.

Did you used to be a Blackberry Storm2 user? lol.


And to the OP, I have no problem at all with mine. It's perfect

I have the same problem. Not that big of a deal, just a little annoying at times. I may try and call Verizon and get a new back cover.
