Pft, we all know Gorilla Glass is supposed to be invincible; your's must of had defective weaker glass
Joking aside, sorry for your loss :/ If anything Samsung "may" fix the screen, for a somewhat large fee.

Are you for real? Find a consumer-grade tablet anywhere that'll get run over by a car and survive before you continue spouting your useless bile. But that's par for the course with you on this forum, isn't it.
OP: I'm impressed it turns on at all after that. Did you reverse off the tablet as soon as you hit it or something?

My Nexus 10 is total garbage since it didn't survive a direct hit from a RPG. Why aren't OEM's making these things stronger?

Probably not; although I am still wondering how a Nexus 10 could be left on the ground, and then ran over
Well. After work I walked to my car and this little old lady was trying to carry pizza and her purse next to where I work. I set the tablet on my trunk and helped her to her car. I drove home and realized where I left my tablet... Drove back and looked in the parking lot and it wasn't there. I drove home again and thought it may be in the street if It stayed on for a bit. So I went back and sure enough it was on the speed bump ran over. I think I ran over it on my first trip to look for it.

So, yes. you can get another one.

You have the right to return it in the first 30 days. Dont take the employees crap.
Seriously. You have the right to take it back as much as you want till you get a good one as long as you do it in the first 30 days. Just go back and dont take no, if they say it Return the phone and go to a different store.

Got mine in the mail today and its very impressive...I notice slight lag when scrolling thru the home screens, but I'm sure a custom kernel/ROM can fix that. Not sure why is there for some and not others. I was thinking maybe it has something to do with the touch screen being calibrated to accept the S-pen? And there's acceptable variances/tolerances in manufacture and programming? IDK but I am still impressed with this device. It took next to no time at all to adjust to the size. Just have to convince my girl to accept the GSII as hand me down phone to justify the second line now on my contract!

there's a fix in the general section that addresses this issue. Apparently it's a hardware issue where the tabs in your phone don't seem to make the connection to the antenna. the fix points out which connectors to adjust but requires you opening your phone. I've been experiencing this issue as well. I find massaging the top back right (when looking at the phone) seems to help but it's only a temp fix. I'm debating if I want to send the phone in for an RMA for that and a weird sim issue I've been experiencing.

I bought a husky multi tip "jewlers" screwdriver from Home Depot, best $10 I spent. Got the philips/standard one and the torques one. I use those to tear everything down. I say invest a little and keep em for years. But that's just me, I tear lots of things apart. If you want I can get you the husky product numbers off them.

2 sec GPS lock and no more sim issues plus 3 month warranty extended onto my phone. I'm fairly content, couldn't get anyone to give me any sorts of discounts on a Note 2 but I still love this phone.
Had this same problem - flashed a GB radio - everything is now working perfectly.

Take a look at my girlfriends note 2, she was at work and plugged it in to charge and a few minutes later smelled burning and her phone was off. She opened the back cover and found the wireless charging pins had overheated and was burning through the back cover. What do you think could have caused this? Phone still works except calls can only be heard on speakerphone. Crazy...

Verizon note2? Wireless charging pins aren't exposed, elaborate?
If another model I'd guess some residue on the inside of the backing grounded the 2 pins? If you ever picked up an oily car battery you might know how little it takes.. >_>

I'd march right into the Verizon store and show them. I could almost guarantee you they'd order you a new replacement for sure.
