it there a trick to getting the back to snap on firmly I got the right middle wont latch and makes the phone "spongy"
I tried appling so pressure but dont want to break the phone
im 550 lbs so when i squeeze something it tends to break or can i order a new back and see?
What is the best way to snap back cover in place? Whatever sequence I use it seems that one of the plastic latches doesn't engage.

There is a little piece of metal that sits right above the micro sd card. It is long and skinny and can be resting upwards a bit.

View 2 Replies View RelatedLately I've noticed that I've been missing a lot of calls and texts, which I finally realized was from the phone not producing sounds. The only way I can get the speaker to work is to either remove the battery cover, or to apply pressure to the bottom of the cover while it is on (or pressing on the speaker grille) so I'm assuming it's some sort of physical connection issue. I don't understand why it would work with the battery cover off though if that was the case, so would a new battery cover fix everything? Or am I stuck with a vibrate-only phone until my next upgrade?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI bought the Motorola Photon 4G in the U.S. but I live in Brazil. In the first 10 days of use it worked perfectly, had battery life of 36 hours with moderate use. After you update it to last OTA, I do not know if it was coincidence, the battery does not last more than 4 hours without any use. Already reset to factory rom, I used several methods to calibrate and the battery remains the same. The screen and battery get very hot when using the photon. I bought new batteries and charger and nothing changed. The interesting is that even disconnected the battery completely discharges within hours. I use the minimum screen brightness, WiFi, GPS, bluetooth and data are off. Right now I have only the factory-installed app, and yet the battery only lasts about 4 hours. The Photon is not sold in Brazil, therefore, have no guarantee nor an authorized service center for Motorola Photon. From what I see must be a hardware problem, does anyone know what might be happening?

I'm referring to this review by anandtech which mentions that the "Photon's EVDO stack may not be all that power optimized".
View 1 Replies View Relatedthe last few days my battery has not even come close to getting me through the day. No new apps. I look at my battery usage and find that Phone Idle is the largest user of my battery. While researching this I find tons of folks who are like "that's normal", but it is almost always even with cell standby. My usage is as follows right now (and this is what it's been like for the past 3 days): phone idle: 37%. Display: 23%, Voice calls: 15%, android OS 10%, Cell standby: 8%. Those are not the numbers anyone else I've spoken to that is running android is seeing. They are seeing phone idle running even or just below cell standby. I'm off battery for 8 hours and down to 25%. I won't make it home before I have to plug in the phone, and for the last 6 months my battery has been making it all day.
View 15 Replies View RelatedI got the OTA update today, and when I downloaded it, my battery was fully charged. When the update was installed and the phone rebooted, the battery was down under 10% and is taking forever to charge. Is this a bad side effect of today's update or did the battery somehow get fried during the update process?

I Took the phone to the phone to the sprint store store where they ordered a new one as they could not figure out the problem. Once I got back home the phone started charging normally.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've had this Photon Q lte for 3 weeks, and the battery is ridiculous. I have to charge it at least twice a day, even when I'm not using it for anything. Wifi is always off because I don't need it, but sometimes my battery analysis lists wifi as having used almost 25% of the power! I can't find anywhere else to turn it off. I'm having serious regrets about being stuck with this thing for 2 years!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI saw similar questions in the forum but none of them had a working answer and I tried all the different solutions and none of them worked.Also none of the other threads described the issue exactly as I am going to describe it below:When spending the entire day within WiFi signal or when disabling cellular data, my phone lasts for 16+ hours with at least 30% battery leftThis includes normal use of the phone - some browsing, some talking and some playingWhen out of WiFi signal and with cellular data enabled (i.e. phone is on 3G) without using the phone at all.
screen is locked the whole time, the phone heats up and battery is drained within 2 hoursLooking at CPU usage when the phone heats up shows that the only component using relatively a lot of CPU is "Android System" but always less than 50%Looking at the battery usage "Display" and "Phone Idle" are always on topThe interesting part is looking at data usage - On the instances that the phone was heating up while on 3G and not doing anything with it (no application is running and the phone is locked)"Contacts"application is always on top with about 1MB of data usage per hour and no other application is even close to itAs an experiment I removed all the accounts from my phone so that I have no contacts at all and no server to sync or try to sync the contacts with and the result was the same - phone heats up, battery drained and Contacts is on top of the data usageMy conclusions from this are that the reason for the battery drain is usage of 3G data and that the Contacts application is the one in charge of the data usage.
I currently don't have internet and the only way i have internet is through my phone so i was wondering that when im tethering will damage or hurt my phone in any way everything seems to be going good no damage yet but can i expect to see degraded perfomance in the future if i continue to do so or something like loss of battery performance
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using Go Launcher Ex and Juice Defender now. My battery life had improved a little but...Even when the screen is off and I'm not using the phone, Phone Idle takes up most of the energy while in that state. Last night Phone Idle was on 6:51:43 while the phone was off of the battery for 7:53:53.On top of this, the phone is awake almost all night. It does drain only a little bit at night.During use Phone Idle still is on much of the time. My phone drains rapidly when the screen is on.The phone has signal all day and night. I'm in a good coverage area.My questions are: Is it normal for the phone to be awake when not in use for most of the time when not in use? Should Phone Idle be on most of the time when the phone has consistent good signal?
View 3 Replies View Relatedsince the update i have had bad battery life even without use and prior to the update my phone battery would show the display being the most used and now its the phone idle is there a reason why this is having such a high usage now when befor it was never high?
View 6 Replies View RelatedThe dreaded fast battery drain finally starting happening to me the past couple of days. Last night I checked the battery usage and noticed something called 'RILD' was using up 14% of my battery life. What is it? Can you get rid of it? Why was it appearing last night but today after power cycling my phone it's no longer on the list of battery uses?
In addition I noticed that it seems to be taking much longer to charge my battery now than it did before. My car charger seems to be ineffective at charging even though it appears to be working correctly. The light on the charger is lighting up and my phone's indicator is showing it as being charged. But after 30 minutes of charging it hasn't budged the battery meter one iota.
So I picked up 2 Photons yesterday from RadioShack. Overall, I am very impressed with the phone, however my wife's is randomly rebooting, and will not turn back on without disconnecting the battery or plugging back into the wall. I have seen a few reports of this online and was just wondering if there is a fix or if I should take it in for a trade? Kind of worried if mine will start doing this also. No SD card installed, no taskmanager, not rooted, etc
