cracked screen... - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I am a dumbass... Dropped my phone at work today and cracked the screen. Just got it on Sunday, and my case hasn't come in yet from Amazon. I am highly upset. How much do you think insurance is gonna bang me for?

Probably 100$.. More than likely since the phone is so new they will end you a brand new one.

TY, I am paying 6.99 for total coverage and deductible is $99

Either way it's better than paying retail.
You could end up with a new phone instead of a refurbished one just for the simple fact it's such a new phone and Asurion won't have a refurbished stock for insurance purposes yet.

I haven't looked into it on the galaxy s4 but I know how to replace a screen on iphone is only 30 or 40 dollars if you know what you're doing you may want to look into getting a new screen on eBay

Way more expensive than that. Would be closer to $200 for the front panel I'd imagine. Asurion replacement is only $100.

Heh, I broke my old phone's power button at the end of my contract. I decided to get an S4 instead of pay half that as insurance deductible for much older phone. The next day, I walked in to the Verizon store and picked one up no prob. I had no idea the Verizon model had just come out. Derp. :silly: I guess supply depends on your area, but I would imagine some of the first shipments went to the insurance companies. Unlucky people like you

Thanks Corey... I know I am.
And I am paying $6.99/month for insurance, so it will only be $100.

I use to have insurance then realized it wasn't worth it after 8 years of no issues. I guess it depends on what you do though. Doing construction and having kids it would be a different story LOL.
BTW you going to run the stock rom? I'm highly debating switching to Cyanogenmod once it becomes a "stable" release.

Stock ROM Corey...

How to get a MHL adapter for nearly free

Begin service with AT&T
get an Infuse 4g
after a few days, if you don't like it better than your 3vo (you won't), return it and cancel your AT&T service
Keep the MHL dongle that comes with the phone, the guy at Sams told me all that really matters to them is that the phone and charger are in there, never even noticed I had left out the MHL dongle
requires like 125 bucks laying around (Sams Club price), but at least you get it right back, only thing you pay for is a few days service
so you basicly scam and act like a stealing criminal. nice....
All this just to save $20? No thanks

I hate ATT as much as the next guy, but stealing is never right..
I would just be thrilled to be able to find a Tmobile store in chicagoland that had them in stock!!!
the sams guy told me to keep it, so it wasn't stealing
He said on returns the only thing that really matters is having the phone itself, the battery, and the charger on the return
I'm kinda torn on this.... Now I would never go sign up for At&t and get a phone just so I could return it and keep the MHL adaptor. BUT, I'm sure many of you have gotten a replacement device under warranty and kept the battery, battery door, or charger/usb cable whenever you returned the device. I know Sprint has told me to keep all the accessories and just ship the phone back, which I have done. If that was the case with the OP, then I dont see a problem. Now telling people to go sign a contract with AT&T just to keep a MHL adaptor is a different story though. Too much work and probably not even that much cheaper than just buying the adaptop after you pay for 3-4 days of service, figuring that the plan is $100 a month, divided by 30 days is around $3.33 a day, 3.33 x 4 is over $13... Just buy one for $20 and save the hassle and dishonesty... just my 2 cents...

I second this. I also had the person at the T-mobile store look at me funny when I said I don't have a t-mobile phone number.
This is not worth the hassle for $20.

I phoned HP customer services yesterday and complained bitterly about my email details (and a lot of others) being compromised and at HPs willingness to take payment for items they know that they havent got.
I received an email from an N W today saying they were looking into what happened.
Anyone else get this because I think we should all kick up a stink collectively.
I got the generic apology email today too from the UK MD.
Note to HP: if you're going to bother to apologise, please don't start your email with "dear customer". As far as I'm concerned, that's ex-customer now

Is this for current customers or can new customers use this deal too?
With the HTC One being $99 on T-Mobile. Then I could cover the cost with a trade in if the trade in estimate is $100.
I am confused on proof of purchase. I actually ordered mine a few days ago, but reading the thread from the last rebate the carriers dont send an invoice with the phones. I know people last time just provided option B. The UPC and imei doesn't have the date of purchase. I am curious why this wouldn't work? I have an old smart phone that I would likely recycle anyway so I don't really have alot to lose by trying right?
"A valid proof of purchase is a) an original invoice with the IMEI number printed on it or b) a copy of the UPC code with the IMEI code printed on it. A copy of a UPC code is only permitted once as a valid Proof of Purchases. "
8.2 How It Works, Business: To receive the $100 trade in value (or actual device trade in value, whichever is greater) in exchange for the smartphone Device you trade in, you must purchase and activate a new T-Mobile HTC One® during June 5 – June 9, 2013 and mail in your used Device with (1) a valid Proof of Purchase of your HTC One® (copy of UPC or invoice/receipt showing the IMEI); (2) carrier name; (3) Carrier BAN (Billing Account Number); and (4) trade ins must be post marked by June 30, 2013.

My phone broke the other day, so I paid Asurion the $100 deductible and they sent me a refurbished one. It sucked. Terrible build quality. I called them again and they said they are out of Rezounds and will send me some LG crap. I refused, guy talked to his supervisor and got me a Droid DNA. Comes tomorrow. Pumped.

Very nice. Looks like I may have inadvertently helped make this possible for you. Mine had just got a cracked screen so I ordered my replacement Rezound last week from Asurion so it now looks like I got one of the last Rezounds available. At least they included a new battery, battery cover, and new 16gb sd card so I feel like I made out but a DNA would have been nicer. I missed out on this by just a week .:crying: Enjoy...

Well, it isn't all good. The development there isn't as advanced as it is here. Their Android 4.2's seem buggy. And the best Sense 5 rom is a port off the HTC One, not the Butterfly (same phone but japanese version) which had 4.2.2 and Sense 5 rolled out to it. I wish there was a plain old 4.3 out now.... Oh well. You know what they say. If you don't like it, change it. Time for me to start learning how to develop!

Do it! They probably will give you a replacement Rezound. Try the flash on the camera. All the Asurion rebuilt Rezounds has like a reddish hue. Complain and they should try again. If it's the same problem then their policy says you get a new one, not a refurbished one. Hopefully they are still out of new ones and you get merry pickings on a new phone. Try and see if they will give you an iPhone 5. Sell on Ebay for full price and get a brand new/new phone *cough* HTC One

I got it's predecessor for 100$ last year at this time of year and snagged it's successor for even less today. Talk about winning! So, what should i expect from this phone coming from the Optimus G. Same experience better hardware? Let me know. Thanks.
