- Alright, just got my Torch, loving it alot more than the Storm2 I had... but being a first slider phone, I am wondering if its normal to have a slight wiggle/play from side to side in the slider when slid open?
Meaning, it moves, but really minimal, normal, or it should move at all? Sorry if it was already said in the past... but I dont really want to get a new one because its not supposed to be like that... have my zagg protection all installed!

It was a little annoying. They replaced the entire LCD slider and now there is absolutely no play, wiggle, rocking, bouncing etc, etc, in the slider...open or closed. It is tight but still glides open/closed very nicely.02-03-11 07:31 PMLike 0

- Yea, the wiggle is noticable, but not that bad, but it annoys me alot!!
So tomorrow morning first thing,,, inot the bell store to exchange it... should I go red/orange?
I just want a phone without wiggle/play/loose in the slider or when closed! It moves from side to side when closed and when open now! Only had it for 6 friggen days!!
Hopefully my new one will be fine!
JP02-03-11 07:59 PMLike 0 - I thought my phone had more wiggle than it should (and it annoys me too), and like some other posts I thought my trackpad wasn't working very well. So I went to the Telus store today to ask someone's opinion, only they were all busy with customers so I had a look at their demo model. It has pretty much the same amount of screen wiggle, open or closed, and the trackpad was way worse than mine! So now I feel way better about my phone, and won't even think about getting it "fixed" or replaced unless something else happens to it or it gets way worse within the 1 year warranty period. I've had mine for about 6 weeks.02-03-11 10:04 PMLike 0
- SlcCorradoBlackBerryCorrect, this has been covered numerous times. To the op, a "slight"-wiggle does not constitute doa. That is laughable. If you want a torch, you're gonna have to get used to the "wiggle". Either that or buy a case.

- When I first got my Torch, there was a slight wiggle. I've had my phone for about 5 months (Or more, or less[I can't remember exactly]) but the wiggle has seemed to improve, as in less-wiggle.02-04-11 07:22 AMLike 0
- I have the same situation too. Very minimal wiggle but I'm afraid as months go by, this will get worse. I actually got the AGF GRT case and there is no wiggle at all. If you don't have one, just treat it very carefully. Don't be pushing on the slider so hard, be gentle with your baby =p

Some people can live with it and for some it's too annoying. Don't judge.

I would take your Torch in to Bell and see what they say. One thing I would caution you on is asking for a different colour. I think it may make them suspicious that it is the reason you are wanting a replacement.
Good luck02-04-11 08:21 AMLike 0 -
