Help Gorilla Glass

[rahulwadhwani]

Somehow the gorilla glass of the phone broke.
What should I do?

 

[rahulwadhwani]

It slipped from my hand and cracked
but the phone is still working. I can launch applications and do what I used to do it,

If you don't have insurance then there may not be much you can do.

You can either call VZW or go into a corp store and plead your case and see what they might be able to do for you.

Worth a shot.

I broke the glass on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet (ouch), and had it repaired by iPhone Repair

I am from India and here we don't have any kind of cell phone insurance...
is there anyway I can buy the new gorilla glass and put it again

If I go and give the phone in service centre will they replace the screen?
I am ready to pay for it

I would go to a service center and see what they say.

I would not attempt to replace the glass yourself.

I had an OG Droid that had a cracked screen and decided since I didn't use the phone anymore that I would attempt to replace the screen.

What an absolute mess that turned out to be. LOL!

 

[rahulwadhwani]

any idea about the service charge?

Have never dealt with this company, they show a repair kit, search for a similar thing in your area.

Amen! I consider myself to be pretty handy with tools, etc. But I tried to repair my fiancee's HTC Dinc using a replacement digitizer I got on eBay, and it was a nightmare DIY. After 2-3 hours burned, I took it to a local repair center and it cost me more to undo the further damage. Even then it didn't work quite right.

That being said, we have a shop in Houston that does great repairs - this would have cost me only $50 if I had it done there to start out with.

The parts are dirt-cheap online; the trick is to find a shop with a reasonable labor cost.

EDIT: the Razr screens may not be readily available though since the phone is still a fairly new model.

Tomorrow I am going to give it in service centre. Let's see what happens. Godspeed
