So, today, after owning my cyan Lumia 800 for only a few weeks, it slipped out of my hand and fell 5 feet, landing screen down onto concrete. I put the included case on from day 1, thinking I'd be safe if I ever dropped it like that. Of course it had to land on the ONLY PART not protected by the case. This is the result of that drop.

What started out as a very small purple line at the bottom of the screen spread to what you see in the pictures, and is slowly continuing to spread. I hate myself.
Oh, and of course this would happen to me the day the interop unlock is released.

I feel your pain . I own the 710 and am going to be extremely careful with it now.
I hope you can get it repair somehow.

Was walking home, and found this on the floor. I've always wated to find a phone on the floor, but this isn't exactly what I had in mind.

All I'm able to tell is that it's a Samsung device, and it may be GSM because of the microSIM slot I see on the back. The back had no battery, no cover, no SIM, the screen is clearly decimated, two capacitive buttons missing (it takes talent to break capacitive buttons) and most buttons are pretty much loose.
I may spend a little money to get this thing fixed up, assuming it even turns on. I planned on getting a battery to test out first, then if it worked, fixing up the phone and keeping it or selling it. Not anytime soon, since I just bought a Nexus 4 while already low on leisure money, but it would be nice.
From the picture you provided and the detailed description it appears to be a Samsung Epic 4g.
If your interested in some replacement parts for the device I would recommend taking a look at these parts www.globaldirectparts.com/Samsung-Epic-4G-Replacement-Repair-Parts-s/6425.htm.

So I got my Rezound from a user on here last February in near perfect condition. Over time, the phone began to wear, I dropped it, the battery began to die and the bezel peeled off completely.
After continually losing my patience with the slow responsiveness of the device (ViperRez ROM took its toll on my phone's performance), I threw it, rage slammed it and just generally abused it.
I was relieved to finally get my Galaxy S4 and came very close to smashing my Rezound up...but I couldn't do it. The phone had served me so well for so long, I decided to keep it and I am restoring it to its former glory.
I am going to purchase a new digitiser, bezel, battery and back cover over the next few weeks/months and flash CM10 (because I love AOSP).
I'll only have the device as a back up but it'd be nice to have a nice device as a spare instead of an eyesore.
I'll periodically update this thread with my activities concerning the fixing up of the device, and hopefully, it'll be a glorious beacon of light once again.
This is what the device looks like at the moment:

Anyone use these cases? What you think? I just ordered the silver.

I don't have one but have looked at it many times on ebay.
Makes me wonder if the back panel is gonna pop off if you drop the device and then the phone goes flying and the glass cracks in to thousand pieces?? ...the back panel is being put in place by some kind of snap on feature. I would Like to see screw assembly instead.

I have one that says Yoo Don on the packaging but it looks the same. I put it on and took it right back off because it is impossible to open charging flap with fingernail, might be able to with a knife tip or something. The back does indeed snap into place and seems pretty secure but wouldn't expect it to add any protection if phone was dropped.
Thanks for the feedback guys. I will let you know what I think when mine comes in a couple of weeks.

I sent you a PM.
Just brought it, i really like it in all aspects except the annoying rainbow effect, i can even see it without tilt the tablet, especially in landscape, just wondering EVERYONE have this problem? after some time of use you get used to? any way of fix it?
I was thinking of change it but it doesn't make sense if all units are faulty
Rainbow effect:

I am unable to access your screen picture but my tablet is perfectly normal and has none of the aberrations you describe. I was in a shop yesterday and handled the two display models and they were fine too. So I would suspect a fault with yours.
Here are the pics http://imgur.com/a/mpuTI#0
So your tablet doesn't have any of this when you tilt it?
I noticed a rainbow effect when I first got mine, but now I don't see it at all unless I really look for it.

No, none of that. Using the same Google page,I have tilted it in every direction and it is a clean high quality IPS screen with no artifacts.
Hi!
My girlfriend bought a Honor 9 last Friday. So far it's an awesome phone and she likes it very much.
However, today we noticed that the paint on the home button is peeling / wearing off.
Is this common or should we return it?
Here's a picture of it:

Sorry for the potato quality, it was taken with her old phone.
Thanks in advance.

I guess you should return it. Less than a week, this should not happen.
Unless that is the clear film that originally came on your device when you unboxed it. I would send it back for a replacement unit.
