I think the consensus here it this is a pretty common issue and the chances are you can keep playing the lottery exchange game and will more than likely receive a phone with the same and possibly more issues. The fact of the matter is this, there is no perfect phone. Its a mass produced item which in some way shape or form will be a flaw whether a user realizes it or not. Its all subjective to how OCD you are about your device. Its a phone, the intent is to use it and stop looking for issues. Just think, with the plans from the carriers its more than likely you will be upgrading in a mere 10 months to the latest and greatest. Why continue to spend time worry about a cracking noise already 2 months in to the product cycle. If it affects the function of the phone well that is a different story, but this has not been proven to do so. But in everyday use I will not be bending the phone, having my ear up to the back listening for a hiss or whatever other issues come about on these boards. Just enjoy it and be lucky you have it in hand as quite a few are still waiting (hard to believe) for theirs. That is great if the screwdriver trick worked for many that goes to show it may not be a defect after all.
This. I'll take a minor click over a bad screen (yellow, uneven, interlace issue, etc.), or any of the other issues popping up on these boards, all day.
