Gorilla Glass has been defeated by clumsiness.

I can't tell you how many times I've dropped this phone and I am still amazed by how long it held up. But, yesterday, It finally gave in to my clumsiness. Luckily, I have the insurance for it. Thats what I get for letting my Captivate run around naked
So... moral of story... get a case and keep a tight grip? Lol.

I have a half circle chip bout a quarter in wide on the top of mine. Got insurance, but waiting till something devastating happens. How high was it? That fall on mine was only 1.5 ft.
I love naked phones

Do you have insurance through att? If so may i ask how much you pay for it monthly?

I managed to scratch mine with out even realizing it. Just look down one day and saw it.
Doesn't the insurance have like a $150 deductible, though? Seems like a lot to pay for a scratch.

I got light scratches on my screen just from having it in my pocket with nothing else in it....
Luckily i had issues with updating to JH7 and i was able to get my phone replaced through ATT without hassle for free. They didnt even mention anything about the scratches.
Now ive got a screen protector and a nice all black cheapo TPU skin case.

I have best buy insurance. It's like 8 bucks a month, no deductable. Covers scratches.

Does best buy cover lost or just broken? Of all the phones I've had, I've only broken one. Lost at least 4.

Screen cost
For what it is worth, the screen is 68-85 bucks to buy easy to install but at that cost insurance is a better deal

Small scratch that only I can see
Got a small scratch that I'm kinda anal about, but like someone else said I'll wait until something really bad happens before I try out my insurance. I pay around 4 or 5 dollars a month thru at&t for my insurance, didn't know the deductable was that much. By the way, does anyone know of anything that will remove small scratches?

I have a cheap case I got off of ebay and it's saved my phone more than once. I literally saw it bounce a few times as it hit the pavement, it still hurts to see but I'm glad I have my silicone case on it.

There is a product made by Maguires for plastics to remove scratches. I used it at my upholstery company to take scratches off of the plastic windows on boats and convertibles it should work on your phone. Im sure an automotive place would have some or a detail shop.

I dropped my captivate a few times, but there was this one time...
I was talking, and holding it with my shoulder while I was working on a router.. Standing about 6'2", I was leaned over a bit, so I think it fell from about 5.5 feet, and landed on the bottom left corner.. square onto a concrete floor.. It has a blemish (hardly noticeable, unless you look really close) on that corner now, but the screen is 100% undamaged.
I love this phone, and I'll never ever trade it until we see 2GHz speeds. The only case I have for it is a holster that sits on my belt..
BTW, I also took a key and a pair of scissors to try and scratch the screen with no success.. Heck.. I've thrown it across the room to my daughter a few times.. (Good thing she can catch!)

Really? Check my math, but I believe you'd have to replace your phone due to scratches about 1.5 times per year, every year, just to break even.

Glass near search button

Its pressable and loose there is there a way to fix this? Its near the edge. I heard if you put something heavy on it overnight the adhesive will reattach.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App

Mine is also somewhat loose, but it is like that on purpose. Flexibility is key if you do not want your screen to crack even easier. If your screen is completely rigid it will not survive a fall as well as a flexible screen.
HTC made it that way, I believe.

Well that technique might work. Obviously you'd want to put a piece of cloth in between the phone and the object you're using as a weight.
Or, if it's on the edge as you say, one of those wooden clothes pins, or other type of spring clamp (I'd go easy on that option, some of those clamps are powerful and could be too much.)
I don't know how permanent this method would be in the long run, especially when hotter whether comes around. If the adhesive was poorly applied in the first place, or if the adhesive was of a weak batch at the factory, the problem, it seems to me, will just resurface.
Though it's a PITA, the only 100% successful fix is a warranty replacement.

I just tried pushing down in the area on my phone, and I see what you're saying.
There's a flexibility, but it's uniform -- it will flex slightly anywhere along that edge that I press.
Without more detailed info from the op, it's hard to tell whether this is what he's referring to, or, since he did indicate "near the search button," whether the just that corner is lifting noticeably compared to the others.

There is actually thread about this already, but I will say something. I had this problem, except mine grew worse and now the bottom middle of the screen has lifted just like the edge. I have been fighting with ATT to replace my phone under warranty since I don't want to wait 2 weeks on htc. I had to threaten to cancel all my ATT services and report them to the bbb on their face book page before some one from corporate contacted me. Now they are over nighting me a referbed.

It is actually a manufactures defect, according to both the htc reps I talked to, but believe me it is a hassle to get att to do anything. They wanted me to pay 125 for insurance or 399 for a refurb. I was like are you f***ing serious? You want me to pay the "new" price for a refurb phone under warranty when I already payed out of contract price, and the phone came from the manufacture that way..Any way long story short after a few threats of cancellation and a 3-way call with htc, they told me to drive an hour and a half to a device support center, and gave me a 25 dollar credit... This pissed me off even more, so I ranted on their face book and some one from corporate told me to email them and now they are replacing my phone.

I just now noticed it on mine as well. Mine isn't even noticable unless you're trying to press on it and feel it "press down", but even then it barely moves. There is an adhesive layer underneath and I imagine just applying some heat from a heat gun may re-attach the glass to it.

Well just got my referb in the mail, screen still does the same, but no where near what the old one did. The old one would flex half the bottom left of the screen and cause major discoloration. Just reflashed the old one now to root the new one XD. Btw the sent it out today and I got it today.. sweet..

Wow. The new one does the same? This was an ATT-based refurb?
If so, now I'm REALLY convinced ATT doesn't do **** to the refurb phones to fix them prior to resending out the phone to another customer for a warranty replacement. Captivate reburbs were/are dog****.
The least they can do is check to see the phone they are sending out as a replacement doesn't have the same problem as the phone they are replacing.
Hope you don't have to go through this crap again. Remember what you, yourself said, the other one just got worse.
HTC may be the only true solution.

Well if the last phone is any sign about this one. I will have already upgraded to the holiday since my upgrade is this month and that's the phone I am waiting for, this will still have a warranty on it, so I won't have a problem sending it in for 10 days - 2 weeks to have it fixed completely. Right now I don't have a back up phone, since my blackberry took a poop which is why I bought this out of contract.

I kept my captivate as a backup, which I got because I had my Blackberry take a ****, as did you, so I wasn't going through that crap again should problems surface with the inspire which, luckily, hasn't happened so far.
I had to buy THIS phone off-contract because the captivate, well, know know the story with those phones.

My screen is lifting as well. Luckily I am in the 30 day window, so I will likely unroot and exchange for another one. I can't go back to my Aria now that I have experienced the Inspire. I'll cross my fingers that I get one that doesn't have the issue.

Thankfully I'm not noticing anything wrong with any of my corners of my inspire, but I really should get some type of screen protector for this phone, I'm starting to notice some very small lines on the glass, I guess they were right when they mentioned that the glass can't be scratched by a key, but can be easily scratched by small dust.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App

On my new Inspire you can just see the corner move a little when you press it. I guess I'll keep an eye on it. If it gets worse in the first thirty, I could always take it back to the Shack. Maybe get a red one to replace it.

I'm sure you can scratch it with a key. Metal is metal. It will eventually abrade anything except another metal that is harder than itself.
It's not standard "on the shelf" dust. It's the dust of materials that are hard enough to have abrasive qualities that are going to scratch things.
I've had my phone since March 2nd, heavy usage every day. Never had a screen protector. Around all sorts of potential damaging particulates. ZERO scratches, scuffs, or marks of any kind.
Always kept in a felt lined belt holster. Never set down with screen facing down. Never put it in my pocket, no matter if the pocket is empty or not.
Obviously, dropping the phone is a whole other scenario, but aside from that, it's all in the care and handling...

AHHHHH Shattered screen

So I destroyed my first smartphone. I suppose it's pretty good since I have carried a smartphone since the original iPhone, but I forgot my phone was in my pocket and when I took off my pants it slipped out of the pocket and landed face down on the tile floor totally shattering the screen.
My question is has anyone had to send their phone to HTC for screen replacement? If so what did it cost. I don't want to do it myself and void the warranty just in case anything happens to it in the future.

Did u buy insurance? Because mine did the same and it was about $190 to fix and the deductible would be $199 so I claimed insurance instead. Hope that helps, good luck.
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2

Sent mine in on the 20th, got a quote a week later and finally got it back today. $220, shipping included.

Unfortunately I did not. Insurance wasn't available when I got my iPhone and I never thought to add it when it became available; but I can guarantee you I will have it once I get it back from repairs.

As long as your in your first month you can add insurance otherwise your out of luck

Wow, that hurts to look at. Sorry for your bad luck. :-( I already gave mine a pretty good knock by dropping it into my front jeans pocket where it always goes. I was leaning against a desk, and it slipped down and smacked against the desk through the cloth at the bottom of the pocket. I guess I'm gonna put a case on it, which is too bad since it looks so great naked (and the power button is already hard enough to hit!)

Son of a B!&*$! I read this last night and thought how bad I felt for you, then I got out of my car at work this morning and my phone went flying out of my hand and landed right on the screen. Full spider web glass. I too have been using a big glass screen also since the first iPhone and this is the first break so I guess I am lucky??
Any idea where to go to get the glass changed? Do we send it off to HTC?
P.S. I ordered the Otterbox yesterday because it is finally available in black. Guess I should have got that ugly blue one to hold me over.

Totally sucks. I am sending mine in to HTC for repair because it is less than a month old and I don't want to void the warranty by doing it myself but; you can get the glass for it for around $50 if you want to try it yourself.

I just watch a screen replacement online... Which convinced me that sending it back is the right thing to do, especially while it is under warranty. The crummy thing for me is that I have already been to AT&T with this phone to get it warranty replaced because of constant data drops and wifi issues but they did not have any in stock so I am playing the waiting game. Now I have to pay $200 to replace the screen of a phone I will be ditching as soon as it gets back.
Note to Everyone: GET A RUGGED CASE! my hard shell was no match for a relatively small fall, I am sure this would have held up in the Otterbox I have always had on my phones.

I have the Benks Magic Cookies case. It is really a nice case but it doesn't offer any protection on the glass at all. This is more of a keep scratches off the back case, not at all a shock protection case. I knew that when I got it, this just put an exclamation point behind that idea. I planned on using it as my "not at work go out to dinner type case" but with how easily this broke I think I will use the otterbox exclusively when it gets here.

I see. Well that sucks. I was actually debating whether to get that one before buying my bestbuy case.

[Q] broken glass

Hello, well I drop my infuse last week and crack just the glass. A guy I know that works at a cell phone repair store sold me a $10 glass for my phone. Well I've started reading and they say that the glass and LCD are fuse together. Is there away to just repair the glass. I thought maybe taking my hot knife and carefully cutting just around the edge and then take a long thin boxcutter ( I've got one as long as the phone and it really thin) and heating up the blade and very carefully slide down while my girlfriend runs a hair blower up and down the screen.
I thought I take the blade and my hot gluegun and make some grips on the sides of the razor blade so I don't cut my hand. What do you guys think of this.
If you know of someone that has done it and can give me there names so I can PM them that be great. One thing thought I don't wont to mess the phone up. This is all I have until the SG4 comes out in the states. Which should be in a few days but I've got to wait until after the 3rd to be able to pay for it. Thanks for reading this.
By the way, could they do it at a cellphone store or would they also need to buy the LCD digitizer to fix it.

Google is your friend in this matter. There are several good sites and YouTube videos related to replacing a screen readily available online. Best of luck in replacing it
Sent from my Carbon-ized Infuse

If you just cracked the glass and see no bleeding from the LCD you can just replace the glass but its a pain in the ass separating it from the LCD without cracking it. My suggestion is to use a really hot blow dryer or a heat gun preferably..separate them, then you'll have to re-adhere the new glass to the LCD. If you have super glue you can use it but use very very little or you'll ruin the screen. I would recommend buying an infuse specific glass replacement adhesive sticker thing on eBay. They're less than 5 bucks :thumbup: if you need any help feel free to pm me.

I've smashed mine twice since november, today being the second time. 1st time it was in its flip cover case. This time, I took out of its case to lie in bed with it (cover gets in the way when you're on your back), went to the bathroom, fell out of my hands, 2 feet drop. Smashed again.
I have the Flip Cover, Otter Box Defender, now ordered the Incipio Leather Folio 2 in 1 and the Incipio Dual.
Figured if I had options I'd keep a good case on it constantly. Lucky I have insurance for it, 120$ deductable. I've reached my 2 claim max for the year though...
Most ...Fragile phone...ever...

I'm still getting a G2. Samsung uses versions of LED screens which have some chance of burn in, ghost images.
LG g2 is LCD. Yes there's a chance of dead pixel but I would rather take my chance with that instead.
Besides, LCD is easier to see on sunlight.
Unfortunately, Camera has stopped.

Thats not entirely true. Unless you wont change your phone in 2 years, the chance of getting burn ins is low. Be careful with LG,they have a tendency to drop phone support ASAP.

My fathers G2 was put in a spigein slimarmor case before the sales rep even set it up. Last month his digitizer was going wokners, had a slight nick in the case that pressed stuff together. Took it to the sprint store, and the reps replaced the front of screen on the spot without even having to do a warranty claim.that LG glass is super thin, too thin in my opinion which is also the reason I will never buy the flex

i dropped my g2 more than 3 times luckily no damage. i dont have any cases.

I know, I've heard it's not too bad. My friend also has it and he said he has dropped it multiple times and nothing has happened to it.

It probably can depend of supplier and party . My friend bought first G2 and had many problems with it, so he returned it to the shop and got the replacement.... but the second one was not good too. Screen just cracked after about a week of use -__- But I know many people with really good experience with this device, so it really depend of how lucky you are )
