Can anyone confirm what this hole is for? I checked the book but it doesn't say. I'm assuming its a reset button, but don't want to push anything in there in case its a mic or something else

It should be the hole for the unit's microphone.
yep its the mic

In other words, don't go sticking a paper clip in there to reset it! Haha

Dropped my tab while in its case. Now the volume button is weird. Its functional but its like really loose and pushed in. Its really hard to push it in. Has this happened to anyone else? And would it be safe to try and fix it with some tweezers or something?

Happened to me as well. It's only pushed down on one side though so I haven't attempted to fix it.

Yes, but is super easy to fix. The volume button is just a pivot that pushes two internal buttons. The pivot point mechanism is poorly designed/constructed.
To fix mine, i just popped open the case, and used a drop of household cement to glue the button back onto its pivot point. No problems since.

Try this. Open up your nexus 7. Lightly press on the messed up speaker. If it is the same issue I have you'll hear the speaker pop back in.

I think you're asking how to take apart the nexus 7? The easiest way to find out how would be to look for a YouTube video on opening the nexus 7. There are many.
How i did it... Slide your fingernail or an opening tool along the crease. The snaps holding the back in place should click apart. Slowly and carefully move your fingernail or tool around the entire device until the cover comes off. Be very careful not to break any of the clips on the lid or in the device.

Thanks for this tip! My nexus 7 sounds MUCH better ...
Just got my nexus 4 today. Love it except for the very creaky volume buttons. The slightest touch makes it creak a lot, whether I'm pressing up, down, or even just resting my finger on it. Makes the phone feel cheap over all. Anybody else? Should I try to exchange it?
Edit...just realized its the power button too. Bummer.

Hey XDA,
i bought my Nexus a few weeks ago, but now i found something strange, if i press at the back glass directly under the camera (where the glass begins) its klicking (dont know how to say it) maybe its like the phones with plastic , some make the dame sound if you press at the back. Do u have this too ? Should i send my N4 back ?
best regards
(I hope u understand what i mean but im german and only 14)

I wouldn't worry about it, but that's just me.
So just don't press the back glass. I swear people are so OCD
I'm sure Google will deny such a repair request.

Why would you press against it in the first place? Leave the phone alone and enjoy it.

Once you figure it's there, it's hard to ignore it.

You're right. I just remember the creaking near the USB connector when I press on it.

Are you sure it's not the auto focus clicking that some have been talking about?
As for me I don't hear any sounds when I press the back of my N4 near the camera lens...

Yup, if I press on the back in the lower-left quadrant of the phone (as you look at it from the back), the glass deforms a tiny bit (you can see if in the reflection) and the phone makes a "click" or "snap" sound.
If I look at the black bezel on the side near where I press, I can see it move a tiny bit, like it's snapping out of place slightly.
Who cares. Put a CruzerLite case on it and all is well.
Hello,
my Nexus 4 creaks when I press left side on back cover:

No drops, used only in bumper (s-line)...
Has anyone the same problem?
Can I use guarantee in this case?
Nope I don't have this problem.
Sent from my Nexus 4
I had the same clicking problem but on the bottom and with the front glass.
I found a permanent fix for this common problem here on xda:
- Unloose the two screws on the bottom but half a turn.
- press firmly on the bezel to notch it back in
- while keeping a reasonable pressure, tighten the screws again.
Hope this fixes it even if you don't have the exact the same issue.

I have the same problem, but on the bottom right. It squeaks everytime I press on it. Will wait till my OCD takes over to open it up.

I'm pretty sure my tip above will fix your problem.
You just need a small Phillips screwdriver and unloose the screws a little.

No problem, just wanna help
But the truth is: you can unscrew about 10 full turns before the screw comes off, all you need here is one half of a turn and re-screw.
No tech knowledge required, as easy as installing a screen protector.
