Dropped it...

I dropped my zmax down a couple stairs with the case on it that they gave away. The screens fine but, now the fingerprint isnt working :mad: this is very annoying, and im wondering if they even secured the connection to the fingerprint scanner down.

edit: does anyone have any info on how to disassemble it, or any guides yet?

if course i was sealed down properly, the case does not protect much, it's more feature and style. there isnt any guides to disassemble though.
 
The fingerprint shouldnt stop working from a minor drop onto carpeted stairs. I hit the phone really hard on the table and it started working again.... indicates a poor connection, might be just mine idk
 
Your phone fell and something stopped working? What a shock! Phones are fragile. Just be happy your screen wasn't ruined. I've dropped my Zmax like 5 times so far, and it's still fine. I use a cheap rubber case on it so I doubt it will ever break from being dropped.... My phones break when I'm angry lol.

Lol.... Yeah I have anger issues too. I'm glad I discovered something network related and not my ZMax being defective. I was only one day away from repeatedly stomping it until an intergalactic black hole enveloped my entire zip code :)
 
Yeah, I have a bad temper... My poor Nexus 5 knows too well... I threw it so hard at the wall that it cracked the motherboard on the inside. Poor thing

Small world bahaha.... My old Nexus 5 got "Gronk Spiked" twice on a concrete floor at work for a poorly timed VM alert. I still have the pieces, been trying to find a way to salvage my son's baby pics off the internal SD :(
