Several people have reported the lower part of the back as being loose & sqeaky - mine certainly is. Can't be bothered with sending it back so looking at fixing it myself. |

Nope, no problems on either of mine, back is solid with no squeaks and a firm battery cover. |

I confirm I have the same problem. Not only this but I returned the phone the next day I bought it and changed it with a new one, which haves exactly same problems, i.e. loose back and loose upper left corner of the screen.
If I remember correct back from p900 days, a little baby powder can fix at least the crunching noises |

baby powder?? isn't that going to be bad for the components inside the phone? |

Well of course you won't put the powder like you put it on a baby...
Remove the battery cover, put a small amount of powder in your hand and then put it slowly in the edges of the cover - not inside |

no offence, but in that way 50% of the threads are pointless on esato... i think its ok, when ppl wanna compare their fones among each other, to be sure if its just her/his fone or a general bug, just as like the k850 dusty thread... its good to share and discuss every single issue, one of the main reason ppl come here

I think this is a pretty poor indication of build quality. I mean, Sony Ericsson should know how to make a nice and sturdy battery cover, seeing as this is taken from Sony's Cyber-shot cameras (which are securely made).

in this case I think its not the battery cover in question as the battery cover is only at the bottom of the phone.
What creaks here is the housnig at the back, probably because there it little to support it at the point it means the sliding bottom/battery cover
as you've mentioned Sony cybershots its also worth mentioning that you almost never open those whereas on phones we frequently open and close to change sim/memory card and sometimes battery so things are likely to loosen up.
I think there are very few phones that don't creak aroundsome part of their housing
