I cracked the front glass
Touch still works fine
Where can I get a new front panel?

You can't. The only way you will have it fixed is to pay the fee through viewsonic. Sorry.

Technically not true, I broke my LCD and replaced it with one I bought on Amazon for about $75. If it is only the LCD it can be done but it's definitely not for the faint of heart. If you are determined to do it yourself send me a pm and I will dig up the link where I got mine.

No kidding? if you fixed the glass and stuff you should definitely make a write-up and post it. I think people would really appreciate it.
Has anyone got dust under their Amaze yet?
I have dust under mine and I'm wondering if there was any way (easy or not) to get it out. I emailed Wind and checked if maybe they could do something about it since I'm still under warranty, but if my warranty is one use only then I'll save it for when it's actually something more important.

Yeah, I had it on the first one I had, couple days ago. I got mine exchanged for other reasons but this one did not come with dusts under the screen new. But it did come with this strong women perfume scent, because they replaced mine with open boxed one. I hope this goes away soon, because.my palms always smells like a girl now...

try alcohol wipes, and wipe everywhere, back cover etc. Most of the smell will be gone.
Unless of course you're starting to like it

hahaha, I actually DID wipe it down, but I think the perfume seeped through the case in the volume rockers, because that is where it is not going away! Hah

I have rust underneath the screen where the front camera is, no where else though.
Anyway to clean the dust from in front if the camera?

Very tough job, you have to pull it apart. the glass is glued to the case/bezel around it

Then you can have people think you have one because of the scent. And when you get home you put on the forever alone face XD

In case you didn't know, I meant dust...
I've taken my Droid Incredible apart, to replace both speakers.
Why would the bezel be in the way of the back of the screen?
I have to take the bezel off to get to the front of the camera?
I think I'll learn to ignore the dust, maybe in a year I'll see, but this is too new to me...

Sorry to revive a very old thread but I have the same problem and haven't found anything clear about it. Did anyone else have dust on their front camera?
Thanks!

The only way to fix that issue is to disassemble the phone and replace the front camera. Then make sure you tighten it enough so that dust can't get in. Hit thanks if that helps.

I dropped my phone and my screen is now shattered.
Anyone know where I can have it replaced, or have any recommendation to how I can have it fixed
Thanks

Your best bet would be to try a cellphone/electronics repair shop, wouldn't recommend doing it yourself.

I know of a friend who was able to order a replacement iPhone 4 screen off ebay and replaced it herself. You might want to check that out.

Yeah, I'd only trust my friend to do this for me, cause random shady people who say that they can replace the screen within 3 hours never seem to come back D:

Yesterday I cracked my phone screen when I dropped it. Not massively bothered given it's barely visible, and I'm not that impressed with the s3 generally anyway, BUT - do you think the screen is now MORE fragile with the crack if I were to drop it again, or LESS as with a crack there is now less tension on the glass?
I don't know but I wouldn't recommend you find out.

Another cracked screen thread? Couldn't you have posted in one of the many other threads discussing cracked screens instead of creating a new one? Or are you just so special that your cracked screen warrants it's own thread? :silly:

Yep spot on.
I would say more fragile. Its like a plastic bag, once you start a rip its very easy to continue it without sizzors and it rips clean, just get a good case or try your best not to be clumsy

get a different phone if your not that impressed with it. good idea to insure a phone like this in the first place.

Yeah it's insured. Not worth paying the excess to get it fixed though. Maybe when I sell it.
It IS worth the excess. :banghead:

What's the point if paying monthly insurance charges if you don't use you insurance when you damage your phone ?
My S4 was dropped and the screen was cracked so I had it replaced. I was still have other issues with the phone. Has anyone here got a replacement phone and had there screen replaced? I just don't want to be billed $500 for so physical damage. The phone now only has a nick in the corner where is was dropped.
Thanks for any feedback!!

I know its easy to get a replacement I'm just worried about them saying I had physical damage. The screen is new but did have it repaired.

I had an S3 replaced through Sprint that had the screen replaced. I was having issues with the USB port but I felt the need to be honest and told them the screen had been replaced. They told me that 1) That should not have an affect on the USB port and 2) they seemed surprised that the screen had been replaced because they said it didn't look like it had been.

9.9 times out of 10 vzw either destroys phone or they ship back to Samsung...the later half being most used.
I assume you have no insurance?
