Honestly, I'm not sure how you broke it. My dna is a tank. You just got unlucky.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
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.

Hey, just wondering if anyone else's MoPho kind of "creaks," esp. the battery cover, or if its just mine. Thanks.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Yeah especially on the bottom right side.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Mine does bottom center but everywhere else is tight. Only "issue" I've had.
Thanks, just wanted to make sure mine wasnt the only one.

Mine creaked so I complained to Moto customer service and they sent me a brand new back door free. Installed it and the creak is gone. Its an easy fix!
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Yep same here... and did same as above. Got on Motorola support site, spent 5 minutes on their chat support, few days later had a free back cover. Squeak is gone now. Looks identical. Not sure what's different but it works! No reason not to try it.
This ^ is why I love XDA.

Mine creaks at the top in the middle.
Going to mention it to motor

No creak here....but now I know what to do if it starts lol!
Mine did for a while, but after a few times of removing and replacing the back cover, it stopped.
After having my new phone less than 10 minutes I managed to drop it and the outer screen is smashed cracked. Is there any where someone can recommend that sell spares? The phone still functions but I need it fixed

I the best price i have seen for a Screen without the bumper is 249 300+ with the bumper around the screen.
its not really hard to change out either. Changing just the bumper is harder than changing just the screen, especially if the other screen is cracked and you are not trying to save it.
parts are out there though.
i have dropped mine 7 times now, and plan on throwing it against the wall here in about a month and getting square trade to give me another device, or the replacement cost.

Ha ha, well stupidity is one thing I just can't tolerate, if people choose not to educate themselves and instead insist in posting stupid stuff on xda I'm forced to say something. Stupidity is a choice!
But a straight up accident of this magnitude after only 10 mins of having the phone is no laughing matter, accidents happen and in this case I feel for the guy.

I have got the answer for you, this is what you must do,
1. Buy an S3 display + digitizer from ebay:
2. Follow this video tutorial:

Are there other screen protectors from other phones that are same size as our screen? At least that would cover the LCD. Thunder bolt?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
From what I have read, we have to get Rezound screen protectors only, because next to the front camera are two important parts. My screen protector has cutouts for 2 piece near the front camera, and a cut-out for the front camera.
Hopefully that was helpful, lol.
I bought the clear Verizon pack and it looks great. Used the bathroom stream trick for a perfect install. Will see how long it lasts but at least I have 2 more.

Haha nice. I bought "Premium Japanese Screen Protectors" 3 pack on Amazon for around $7. They work pretty well so far!

The thunderbolt ones work with a bit of trimming off of the side. You will have about a quarter inch if glass unprotected at the top and bottom.

Applying it in a really damp room catches all of the airborne dust in the steam. Helps with keeping dust off while you apply.

Sorry forgot about this thread lol... It was a BRAND NEW note that asurion sent me the week before christmas. It worked fine and I'm 98% sure it was the new stock battery as well. Though I normally use ankers but I figured fresh battery was cool. Luckilly that Friday night I had been too tired and fell asleep without charging it or this would have happened while I was asleep. Saturday morning I put it on the charger next to my bed around 730ish and it was at ~40% . Me and my daughter were laying in the bed watching spongebob when I heard a hissing noise, and I looked over to see steam shooting from my battery like the old pipes in movies . I took my daughter out of the room and heard a little pop then when I looked in the room my phone was on fire... Literrally burst into flames.... God is good. Could been A LOT worse. Still waiting to hear from Samsung.
