Oh! when I saw your hd2. I think we should double take care of our HD2.
Thats nothing this is what i did to mine:
Lucky seen as i had insurance so i got it a new phone to replace it
have a look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=613954&page=24
You're not the first and not the last either, I bet. It happened to me too and I fixed it myself using the tips found on XDA.
The best one being getting a complete unit (LCD + Digitizer) and not just the screen.
I paid about 100 € on Ebay for the unit, came in about 3 dayx with the special tools shown on the leaked HTC video tutorial.
If I managed to do it, anyone can, believe me

Hello,
as far as I know HTC charge about 180 € ...
But you can have it repaired cheaper when you looking arround and find a local phone store.
I know what you must feel
@ceh01:
must say that pattern on yours is best so far
Hi,
HTC quoted £120 to repair the glass.
4 more month until i'm due an upgrade
Wondering if its worth it....
:S
man, some pretty bad looking screens here. i was soooo lucky with mine the other week. i was in the shed when i knocked my leo off the bench and it landed face down on the concrete, i well an truely shat my pants. god knows how or why but i got away with a tiny tiny crack in the top left corner, it really is so small its miniscule but i'll still probably blag a new screen through the bank insurance about a month before im due to upgrade.........

Lemme tell ya about yesterday at the river standing on the dock drinking a beer and watching fireworks. My brother-in-law thought it would be SO funny if I took a little night dip in the marina and gave my slightly intoxicated self a nudge in that direction...yup. I actually thought it was hilarious when I climbed out and was laughing while popping another Bud. But wait, yep, my phone is making some strange noise in my pocket...sounds a bit like its choking! Fished it out, it flickered, then died. Than I punched him in the mouth. No REALLY. Spent today babying it and drying it out and it works except that there is river water in what looks like 3 different layers of the screen. Anyway, he's paying the deductible and my new one is on the way. Ugh, it's killed me to even look at it all day. My girlfriends been very happy and I haven't hit F5 even once in the root threads so I guess thats a plus. Just wanted to share my misery with some like-minded peeps, seems like everyone I know just doesn't understand...
Punch him again.

Lost cause, you're talking about a dude that refreshes by hitting F5.
Sorry to hear of the unfortunateness. Good to hear your getting another courtesy of brother-in-law.
The EVO line of phones seem to be a fairly robust lot. I left my table at a bar to fetch another drink and return to find my 4G in a pool of spilt vodka/sprite. It didnt turn on a first but once I took it apart (completely) and dried it out, it started it up fine. It also had turned (3) moisture indicators pink.
1. One indicator on the battery
2. Second in the battery bay
3. The third on another board inside the phone
Luckily it didnt have any water on the inside screen.
A friend has a 3D and spilled a Taco Bell sweet tea on it. Sticky stuff. Still works...
@event....nice one douche. Should've saved that haymaker for you I imagine. Thanks for the replies everyone else. I'm always happy to get a new phone regardless. Hope everyone had a good 4th...

I think he meant it as a compliment, maybe. Being addicted to root is a badge of honor, for some... of us, lol
If you're in KY near water then there's a good chance I'm close enough to come get 3d video of you punching him again, or maybe asking to see his phone then throwing him in for a swim.
That does suck man. I almost had to go back to a bb curve for a few days when I broke my evo, the horror!
a new one? you mean refurbished .. I'd make him buy a BRAND NEW straight from sprint for 500 .. most expensive push ever.

I've found myself in that situation far too often, I love to go fishing, and sometimes forget I have a phone in my pocket. Well I've gotten into the habit of when I'm gonna be at or near water for awhile I slip my phone in a ziplock in my pocket. lol
Seems stupid but hey I saved my EVO4G a couple times lol

i had a bricked mt3g with a vodafone splash screen and went for an exchange from tmobile and didnt wanted them to know that it is bricked by the vodafone spash screen. i took a jug of water and poured into the phone carefully so it didnt mess the indicators and then plugged it in and booted, still worked, then i microwaved it for a few seconds until there were some sparks, took it out again booted, idk what htc puts in their phones but they do survive the utter torchure. I ended up disconnecting a wire on mt3g on the inside so it would short out and didnt boot and finally got an exchange. for my n1 it fell off from 8 feet just a dent, fell off 3 floors onto trampoline nothing, fell off 1 floor another dent, fell of 2 floors on its edge broken screen ( no broken glass just screen ) its survived too much torchure. Have HTC Magic 32a bought it on launch still works perfect =O

I had the same thing on the mytouch, I just mailed it back to them with the voda splash screen and prepared to play dumb if it was ever brought up. They never asked any questions.
since ur already getting a new one. Try putting that one in a bowl of Dry Rice. Might as well see if the rice sucks the water up and you have an extra 3D its worked for me on some phones.

Since the device is so new... the chances of him getting a brand new one is very high... $100 deductible may just send him a brand new phone.
Yeah, I'm hoping the $100 gets a brand new one sent to me. I guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow and see. As far as the rice goes, I let it sit in rice for about 24 hours and though the phone is dry, there are still the three different layers of water inside the screen. One layer of water banding, one layer of large droplets, and another layer of banding running the opposite direction. Really strange to look at...
@event- apologies to you, I'm usually a little more grown-up than the name-calling. Was just in a foul mood last night over this. I do run a firefox addon to auto-refresh xda.
There are not 3 layers of water in your phone, just one, it's a 3D phone remember, it's a feature.
Anyway sorry to hear about killing one already, glad you are getting another.

One day, playing some ball hockey outside, i check my phone cause i got a text and i see this. It was fine before i started shooting around in my front yard...i didn't fall or anything. What should I do? Does my warranty cover it? Everything works like a charm like before except for the glass.

Well what the hell do you expect? Only an idiot leaves a device like this in their pocket while playing any type of sport or running around etc. No sympathy.
I very much doubt your warranty will cover it.

I was barely moving, i was just shooting around with my friend..How much would it cost to replace the glass?
If youre confident enough, there are youtube vids that give step by step instructions to replace a cracked screen. Doesn't look too easy though. You can get a replacement screen on eBay for USD 8. (Screen only. I'm assuming your digitizer is intact)
Needless to say getting it fixed professionally is safer, but much more expensive. You could ask your service centre for a quote before deciding whether or not to take the plunge.
Good luck

Yeah my digitizer and lcd and working fine..Thx alot for your advice!
Reading up its probably not a good idea to get the panel but get the whole thing apparently its a nightmare for even a technician to do its best just to get a whole new lcd screen with digitizer. I have the same predicament but only month left on contract so im waiting it out.
I'm in school right now and go to pull out my phone from my pocket and my screen wouldn't turn on. I come to see little hairline cracks on my screen but not on my glass which is odd. Now my phone turns on but the screen itself is just dead. I am rooted and running a rom so what should I do? Please help me!

OK, If you're not insured then you need to look at this video by Erica Griffin. Yes, this is for the GS3 but it really shouldn't be any different for the GS4. Her Vid on YouTube shows you how to replace the screen with digitizer and using all of the other parts from your current phone. It's actually a good video to see just so you know how easy this stuff is to do. The screen w/digitizer seems to run around $200 which is way better then $500-600 to buy a new phone outright. Just remember, I'm just giving you a cheaper option to fix it if you don't have insurance.

They claim that as long as they can't prove that the cracks were from impact there shouldn't be a problem. I'm afraid they might screw me over. But i mean the glass is completely fine and my sides have small nicks from previous small drops. im gonna try to unroot and wipe tomorrpw after school
My screen blacked out a week ago but been too busy to deal with it. Display comes through MHL onto my TV display so wonder do I need all parts mentioned? There's no crack in my display, but to my surprise the "moisture detector" sticker is tainted red (the big visible one, as I understand there are multiple stickers -- can someone confirm this to be correct?).
I may just take a risk and request replacement over the phone. Once or more in the past, I've had a warranty period issue replaced with the warning "...if its determined to be your fault, we will charge you the full retail price" and I've sent them bootloader unlocked, watermarked phones and they let it slide. There truly was no submersion or even open case exposure to water, I'm not sure how sensitive this particular sensor is to humidity or moisture through an enclosed back.
Anybody else surprised to see their "watermark" turn red when they feel it should not have been? From past experience having phones replaced via phone support, I'd wager they take my rooted, broken-display phone and never charge me for it.........................I been with VZW a decade and a half and then Bell Atlantic Mobile and planned in about 220-250 consistently for nearly a decade.........I'm not saying VZW is prone to show courtesy for longevity, but this could be 3-4 such instances in the smartphone era of questionable watermarks of rooted and flashed-to-hell Blackberries including blatant cracks...............

I literally just watched my phones screen shatter itself right in front of me. It was sitting on my desk next to my keyboard and I heard a cracking noise, so i looked over and the screen was super cracked. I went to pick it up, and when I did, the screen cracked even more and is a mess now. I've dropped my fair share of phones and iPods, and know what cracks like that look like (spiderwebbing out from a point), but this one looks nothing like that. The whole screen is messed up.
My questions are these:
1. Would Verizon provide me with a replacement phone because I didn't drop it (I doubt it)?
2. How hard would it be for me to replace my own screen/find parts to do so?
Thanks
P.S. I am trying to get my old DX2 to turn on so I can upload pictures of what it looks like.

It's been mentioned lots of times before. Look around you may even find a video or two on changing the screen.
With physical damage don't count on VZ replacing it in store.

I have watched the videos and such, but I am still super confused about what I need. The screen still works perfectly, all i want is a new glass front. Can I order one of the glass lens/digitizer combos and use that? Those are about 20 bucks, but if I get one with the LCD screen included (again, my screen works fine) it goes up to about 80, at which point I would just go with VZW and get it replaced for 99. I am really confident that I just need the lens/digitzer thing, but I have read things about the screen and digitizer being fused together and that is what confuses me.

NO!... The digitizer is bonded to the LCD and I've not seen one person successfully change just it. There's no reason it should even be sold.
The combo is the way to go and I'd go one step further and get the frame and adhesive for about an extra $25 just to not have to deal with separating it. That's the hardest part int eh videos.
Wait... Verizon charges $100? Is that through Assurion?

I can't tell you which part exactly you need to replace...
I am having the same problem here I also dropped it in muddy water but phone is fine and working it's a part of the display unit
I took it to the service centre here and they told me they would have to replace the whole display unit as it was pointless to just stick back the metal rim or ring or whatever and warranty also became pointless I was told it would cost me 5000 rupees....
Even though my display in in tact and still responsive they told me I had no option but to replace the whole display unit lolzz looks like it's time for me to get a new phone...
