    Since I upgraded the RAM in my One, I'm getting electric tiny, rapid electric shocks through the small holes in these two areas:

    My only guess is that something is not properly grounded? I don't know much about electricity, does that even make sense?

    Do you see sparks or just hear something? The circled areas are, after all, the speaker locations.

    I haven't modded mine in any way, but by picking it up from that location, I get shocks too. I'm pretty sure it is normal, so the best thing I can tell you is to just not stick your fingers there. ;)

    I don't see sparks or hear anything, I only feel it in my fingers. It tickles a bit but it's not powerful enough to hurt. Thanks Master Mike, I was hoping someone on a stock unit would report the same annoyance.
