Guest adamguest1985 Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 Anyone else suffering from buttons which squeak rather than click? Mine only needs the slightest touch, not enough for the phone to register it, but enough for my ears to register it. It makes the phone feel/sound so cheap! Any ideas on a fix? I tried to get my handset apart to have a look, but I took the screws off, and could only prize the volume side of the handset open, the other side wouldn't budge. :s

I need to push them very down to make click...
Guest That-Guy Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 I have a squeak but from what I can see it is coming from the back cover (Bottom Corner) :P
Guest Magnets Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 (edited) My home button does the same. It's worse if you press the far left corner, or if you slide your thumb left as you press. It's like the plastic button moves from side to side and scrapes against the housing. If I press down right above the home icon it makes no sound. Edited February 7, 2011 by Magnets
Guest Colcut Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 The phone is cheap what do you expect?
Guest adamguest1985 Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 (edited) The phone is cheap what do you expect? I've had £5 handsets that manage to have working buttons. :P I have a squeak but from what I can see it is coming from the back cover (Bottom Corner) :D My second handset had that issue, poor fitting on the back cover. Get a replacement from your stockist. Edited February 7, 2011 by adamguest1985

Guest exec Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 No squeak on any of my buttons and a perfect fitting back cover, guess I'm lucky. :P
Guest lixcab Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 I read somewhere here that tightening the screws on the back helps. :P
Guest olionair Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 TIGHTEN THE SCREWS IN THE BACK OF THE PHONE. this fixes squeaky problems
Guest adamguest1985 Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 TIGHTEN THE SCREWS IN THE BACK OF THE PHONE. this fixes squeaky problems Tried that, no dice. New handset coming tomorrow. Number 4... This one will be a TFT though, they told me they're sending a NEW handset, rather than another refurb. Will dump my FW incase anything new's going on in there nowadays.
Guest lawson012 Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 Yeah mine squeeks :S bottom corner near the speaker :/
Guest ololizoz Posted February 7, 2011 Report Posted February 7, 2011 Tightening the screws made my home/menu/back buttons stop squeaking, but my volume buttons is still squeaky :/
