View Full Version : Twist cover for NR a little loose

Greetings! I've read some of the great threads on the loose hinge issues; I was wondering if anyone has experienced a loose "twister" (for lack of a better term). Has been fine, but lately I've noticed that when I twist the cover between tablet and open modes it doesn't "snap" into place quite as nicely and the twist feels a little looser. I've also noticed that there's a discernable shift to the cover when in tablet mode (in closed position the edges of the cover line up nicely w/ the base of the unit, but flipped around it's offset by a bit). You can see this just above the hinge where there's more of a gap between it and the screen on the right side while closed.

Is this something anyone's had experience w/ while rummaging around inside? As someone had put it in a different post, you don't want to have to perform surgery if you don't need to (or can't).

Thanks in advance!

Kev!

I noticed the hinge seemed a little loose when in the tablet position, it would shift side to side a bit, but wouldn't do that when it was closed. I'll have to look and see if it square when in the tablet mode.

I've noticed the same thing...when I put it into tablet mode, I've got to push on the connection between the hinge portion and the screen to "snap" it into place. Also feel like it's a little loose in terms of side to side motion.
