So today i took my vzw hard case off so i can check out some old sd cards. I left the case off and a few hrs later i noticed something felt weird on the back of the phone. So i started looking at it and noticed that the backing of my phone by the sim card/sd card door was rasied.
Has anyone come across this yet?

No, I can't find that mentioned anywere. Is it hot or do you smell anything funny?

I didn't notice if my battery had swollen, 10 but it heated up in my shirt pocket, and that I had to take it out so it wouldn't burn me.
The last time it heated up, and after it cooled down, and my screen was cracked.
That was a lot of hassell from Verizon, telling me I dropped it, but I didn't.
Called Motorola and lot of talking, they replaced me screen and a new battery.
Just got it back on 3/6/12.

Wow, that's a heavy problem. Have you heard about any other RAZR owners having the same battery swelling problem? I looked around a couple of other forum and con't find anything similar. Kind of scares me away from non-removable batteries.... :O

They replaced screen/battery instead of sending you a refurbished unit?
