OMFG..My phone just dropped on carpet'd floor and there's a huge crack on it.. :(

[EpyonZeroX]

My phone is rooted, so should i unroot immediately and do something about it? Is there a way to replace the screen? I dont' know how it cracked on a carpet'd floor :[ HELP!

 

[R1Lover]

No need to unroot as it's not covered unless you have insurance.

 

[EpyonZeroX]

i do have insurance...should i take it into verizon and have them replace it? Is that possible?

 

[EpyonZeroX]

i'm sad :[ anyone know if you can have it replaced or not?

 

[LuN3yDaV3]

someone here on the forum successfully replaced the screen. See this thread

edit: ok I just read through that thread and noticed the op may have been bs'ing

yes you have to file a claim through assurion and pay the $50 or $80 or $90 deductable and they will have you phone to you the next day. you just send back your broken droid in the padded envelope they provide

does the crack qualify as broken? like i can feel the edge and i don't wanna cut my face honestly..so can i claim it and if i do, do i have to unroot my phone?

just put it in a bucket of water for 20 mins if water before you return it if your worried

I would unroot just to be on the safe side before you take it to verizon and try to negotiate some deal. You don't want them to notice and then screw you over.

edit: they beat me to it

unless you are with in your 30 day period I would not even bother with Verizon... even then YOU BROKE your phone why should Verizon take the hit for your carelessness with the precious.
go here Asurion - Your Technology Protection Company type in your info , pay the deductable, and get a new phone the next day. a cracked screen DOES qualify for a damaged DROID. DO NOT DROP IT IN WATER thats useless and you can't use the phone in the mean time until your replacement shows up

alright, thank you, i filed the insurance claim and paid 50.00 bucks for it :\
but yeah droiders..can i have the links on how to unroot the phone? basically go back to my "old settings" i have both nandroid backups (on pc and phone) so how do i go about getting it back to before all the BB goodness.

thank you, isn't there another one though? Simplier? Lets say i just want to go back to my nandroid backup (before i rooted/did anythign) and unroot from there.

 

[EpyonZeroX]

could you use the DMU updater to "easy" unroot/stock the phone back?

 

[EpyonZeroX]

that seems like the easiest way..is that possible?
