You can buy a replacement straight from Samsung or Ebay/Amazon and there's plenty of tutorials on YouTube on how to do it yourself.

Ain't going to be cheap though as the screen is the LCD also

Thinking about getting one...

What's your honest opinion of this phone? Should I wait for something coming up? Also looking at LG Nitro HD... Thoughts?

Its a good all rounded fone. Its up to you does it fit your needs?
Which ever fone you do get will be surpassed by something better why keep up with the Jones..
I say go into a store and try out the handsets you have in mind and go from there...
As of now, buy one. By April or so, I'd say wait for the SGS3

The only con I've seen so far with this phone is that it doesn't have gorilla glass. Anything else? I see some good devs.

I'm pretty sure it does have gorilla glass.

I think it is advertised as having gorilla glass. It is sturdy that's for sure. You can check some youtube videos on sgs2 drop tests.
After more than half a year in the market, I don't think there is any phone that can match the SGS2 and with a healthy modding community, it really is the phone to get if you are looking for one now.

Judging from the signature, I believe you got the S2 Sky Rocket, not the international Galaxy S2

You're not alone, but I don't know what's going on in that thread because I'm not experiencing it.
Funny. I acctually looked at that thread but my xda premium crap app didn't display the picture so I thought it was about something else. Thanks for the link.

I also have a white note that did the same thing about 2 weeks after I got it. I just bought a bumper case and hope for the best

Cracked screen replacement cost

Hi,
So I've dropped my phone and cracked the screen I don't feel confidence in replacing it my self and my insurance company are offering to replace my phone for £75.
Do you think it's worth this cost or should I look at going somewhere else in the UK?

Get a couple of quotes and you will soon see that that is a pretty reasonable deal! And learn to look after your phone
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Very funny, lucky I got insurance this time as I normally don't bother.
Thanks for the tip I'll go check out some quotes.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
You'll find the cost to be around 200pound for a screen replacement unit since you cannot replace only the glass on the S3

Honestly, I'm not sure how you broke it. My dna is a tank. You just got unlucky.

Mine broke as well from a similar " light drop". Actually caught it on my boot, then it landed on the lower left corner. Screen shattered out from there. Everything works just fine on mine, so I'm leaving it as is for now as a reminder.

Mine shattered too. Fell out of my pocket onto concrete face first.

There have been a number of identical posts some suggestion it was the suckers used re the glass .
Suggest you return to the vendor .
So you mean the Glass is not Original?
