Today I learned that the MT4G can't take a 2.5 foot fall onto the floor of a bus. I didn't buy it though T-Mobile, and I have no insurance or anything. What should I do here?

It looks like the LCD might be okay, so it may just be the digitizer that's damaged. Those are fairly inexpensive to buy but I've heard they're not very fun to replace if you're inexperienced. Try seeing if there are any repair shops around that will fix it if you provide the digitizer.
what happened to it? it looks fine to me
p.s. digitizer and LCD need to be replace Digitizer is usually 60 dorra(attempt at Chinese accent)
It literally fell 2.5 feet out of my hand onto the floor of the bus while I was getting on. I'm going to try and scrap it on eBay to offset another one.
Get insurance on it with tmo over the phone, wait a few days and file a claim. Or just order the parts and watch the youtube video for it. It really isn't that hard to replace. Just take your time when you do it.

This phone can take drops but not flat on its face. If it landed fat its going to crack samething happen to me. I have insurance though its going to cost 130 dollars.
this is the first phone that cracked on me I advise you to get a case otterbox or Trident Cyclops.

That Trudent case actually looks pretty snazzy, but does it add a lot of bulk to the phone?
Sorry if this is the wrong time to ask but what is the Rom and theme that u have?

Not to much some but not as bad as the powerskin case good protection for Trident case. First time I bought a case for a phone the power skin case isn't no case... Didn't help my phone from breaking.

That sucks man... I use a T-mobile 2 part case that's rubber with a hard plastic shell
It's taken its share of falls from my lap getting out of the car (nasty habit that I will eventually kick). The plastic is actually broken off on 2 corners. Only thing that is wrong with it is some damage to the bezel since that part is only covered by rubber. It has seriously paid off dividends though. I'm sure my phone would be mad ugly if I never got the case.
Guess its random... I just dropped my phone like three feet to concrete... no damage thank god! Anyways you can try calling customer care and complaining about the lack of durability... I know gridlock dropped his phone and it broke and he called and complained and got a new one free of charge... you should pm him and ask him what exactly he said ....

...and the tales of survival commence.
A week or so after getting the phone, mine fell 4-5 feet into concrete stairs. It hit on a corner, had a tiny mark because of it. The phone worked fine otherwise.
But...a month or two after that fall I was able to replace the phone because mine had the "bad" screen.

I think mobiletechvideos.com may be where that video is. I do believe that he offers a service to replace it ... If you end up not being able to.
I think I may be jumping ship to either the atrix or the inspire. That is if I can get the wife to let me use her upgrade. The parts to replace are $125. I can get a new phone for close to that. Of well we'll see what happens
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I see your logic but your not actually saving money doing that. Your just eating another upgrade and committing another line to att for another 2 years. Quick fix but more money long run.
I am aware I am not saving money but I get a new device, that while it may not be "better" it is newer. I know newer isn't better. And as far as committing to att for two more years they are the only carrier that I get service in my area. And my wife really doesn't care about the upgrade shes still happy with her razr and doesn't want to get anything new.

It could be $1.00 or $1000. It doesn't matter cause its out of stock.
cracked mine a few months back and got a screen from ebay and replaced it myself. its was about $60 and it even came with a kit for opening the phone. there's a thread somewhere on xda for disassembling the phone with pictures and stuff. pm me if you want more help.
I'm in the same boat as him and the need to change the glass. All the dissasemblies doesnt actually show how to separate the glass from the lcd.

That is actually a normal practice on eBay, they raise the price when out of stock to avoid relisting and associated fees.
Yeah I saw that too. Thought it had to be a typo

Not sure if you can separate the glass from the lcd. All the replacements I saw available come with screen+digitizer as an assembled unit already. Pretty sure you have to replace the whole thing not just glass only.
Prices really raised huh.... got mine for $60 a few months ago. Maybe supplies is getting short.
I bought just the glass itself and yes you can buy it by itself either with the at&t or without it. Now i just to need to see how to separate i was told the two are held together by adhesive
I dropped my phone from about 2 foot and the screen cracked! Gutted but so glad i got it insured....excess is only 25 pound so not too bad.

Gorilla glass will crack, depending on the angle/surface that the phone drops...the whole point of gorilla class was that it doesn't scratch easily, not that it will never shatter

You can scratch that reason. I just had the EXACT same thing happen WITH the Tmo case on. I Dropped the phone from about waist level and it landed perfectly flat, screen-side down.....and shattered. I had it from the Day 1 launch at Walmart and while thankfully I had insurance, the $130 fee wasn't exactly the best news.
At least they include "free" next-day shipping with Assurion.
my heartfelt sympathies man!! I feel for you!!

Damn dude, I don't know what I'd do if that happened to me! Well, I doubt it would, I have a Trident Aegis Case on mine.
My G2x fell about 3 feet onto tile yesterday and the glass is cracked something terrible. Will post a picture when I get back from vacation.
Hopefully I can get a similar repair deal from LG.
mine didn't quite look as bad as that pic, but was pretty bad. It still worked just fine, I could feel the cracks in it when moving my finger over the glass. Just call LG, they quoted a price between $40-$100, gave me a confirmation number. I mailed it in, then got an email with the total amount due for a repair. Called and paid over the phone, got my phone back about 5 days later...pretty easy..
Definately wasn't happy when it happened, actually felt sick to my stomach
Mine survived a swim in the pool. In fact it stopped randomly rebooting after that. Now it runs great.

I agree, but I did just go out an bought a incipio battery case. Not much in the protection realm, but the added battery is all I was looking for. Added some heft but not too much more than any other battery case. I love the push button power-on on the front, I didn't even know it was there. I just thought it was on at all times and was disappointed at first and almost returned it.....THEN.....I RTFM!

I'm sure I'll be fine. But my hands are rather large. iPhone with otterbox still felt small to me. Plus with working in a warehouse I kinda need it.
Plus I have held the ballistic case and was fine with it. Just didn't get it cuz didn't really care for the design and always read about problems with the buttons.

I just broke mine recently too, I ordered a white replacement digitizer on ebay, originally thought I would receive the whole assembly as most are advertised with the housing that has volume /power buttons, I got just the screen still easy fix though it required some tough gloves and a screwdriver to break all the old digitizer out and some impact proof superglue to put old one in though it worked, and now i have a black and white g2x its quite nice here's a link to a video on how to replace it.
I would recommend for ease of replacement to get a black one with the housing (volume and power buttons) attached. much much easier to replace.

dude, that's seriously sick. is your battery door still that weird brown color? i found one white digitizer on ebay for $78. is that what you paid?
I sent mine to LG (well, Stellar Wireless) after I dropped it, and they swapped it out for me for $40. Unfortunately, the one they sent me had non0functioning 4G and GPS, so I had to send it back in and I'm waiting for my replacement to be returned to me.
I ordered the digitizer from eBay. Hopefully it won't be too difficult to replace

So i wanna see what happen to you if the phone looks like that. Dang man thats bad about the phone but its fix able. Unless you want to sell the phone to me for $50 ill take her off your hands
My new digitizer should be here in a couple days, seems a whole lot easier to repair than my last phone, so I will update on how it goes. My biggest thought is about getting dust or anything between the LCD and digitizer. :/
looks like a nasty fall did you have a screen protector on it or even a case? or were you rocking the naked look? just curious
Naked of course lol I don't think anything would've protected it tbh
