Does anyone else's back cover make cheap plasticy noises at the bottom?

My first one did this pretty bad. My second one isn't doing it now, but I suspect it's coming.
 
Heres what you do.

1. go to the motorola.com website and call the warranty and issues dept.

2. explain you just got the phone and really like it and dont really want to exchange the whole phone just for a new battery cover.

3. ask them nicely if they can send you a replacement since your still in warranty.

4. Be nice the rep will hopefully verify your address, purchase date, and record your serial number and then they should inform you one will be sent out free since your still in warranty thru fed ex overnight. I called them last friday and got an email yesterday confirming it was sent and got it today and it fits much better!

Great service!

Thanks, my free replacement battery cover is on its way. However, they told me it will take 4-5 business days instead of fed ex overnight. No biggie.

LOL I called and spoke with a guy who barley spoke English and it took 13 minutes for him to get my address but I got two day fedex shipping ;)

I noticed it after I had to take my back off to do a battery pull. I'm not sure if it was like that before.
 
At first I didn't realize it.. But then after continuously taking the cover on/off (I may have accidentally bricked my photon :p) its definitely squeaky now. It's so irritating. I'm waiting to find a great case for it so I won't have to deal with it. Anyone have suggestions for a case?

I ordered a couple of these cases: Amazon.com: photon 4g cases tpu cruzer - Cell Phones & Accessories There is a buy 2 get one free offer as well. I just received it today and it fits good. Definitely takes care of the squeaky back issue.

Haha funny thing is I actually purchased one a week ago, and I'm not a big fan of it. It does protect it well, but I think it just makes it much to bulky. I also don't like the feeling in the hand much either. Idk, I guess I'm just really picky -__-
