Report that. Get your money back, return it, whatever. You don't have to accept a broken device . Report the damage to the company that did the shipping too.

Yup exactly. You have to report it and get a replacement

Sorry to bump an old thread, but is it possible to replace the digitizer only?
My kid dropped my Moto Maxx and touch / capacitive buttons stopped working. LCD is perfect and there isn't even a scratch. I saw a teardown video but couldn't see a separate flex cable for the digitizer. Can you send me a link to the glass you bought?
EDIT: Maybe it's one of those two?

I got a full assembly replacement in aliexpress for about 155 maybe is cheaper these days, I dont recommend to replace just the digitizer is a really hard task. If you can get the replacement with the frame buy that one, the glue in the lcd was very hard to remove, I assembly the part with a thin filament of glass silicone, let the screen with some clamps all night

Crack in casing

Don't know if anybody has this too, but i have cracks in the grey casing.
If i slide open the keyboard, the upper part of the casing (the part with the display) has some crack right above the buttons with start and contacts...
It started as very little cracks and they become gradually bigger. They started as small vertical cracks (just barely visible with he eye) but they grew bigger and they are now even horizontal cracks in it.
Horizontal meaning.... Parallel with keyboard in slide open position.
Am i the only one ? or is anybody experiencing the same problems ?
(are my pants just too tight)

I'll probably get the CDMA version (Sprint), since CDMA coverage is much better in the US, let alone here in NYC.

PDADB lists the CDMA version's release as July. Any searches for the Raphael have are releated to Sprint (US CDMA carrier) releasing the Diamon and the Raphael.

T-Mobile Wing is not the same phone as HTC Wings!
Take a look at my crack!
Here is a picture of my crack
Poor picture quality, I know..
A hairline crack about 4 mm long has shown up on mine. On the screen half of the housing close to the camera button. I can't believe that HTC could hve used low quality plastic. It's has only 4 months of use !
Mine also, same place as Alcaline, realy small right know...
crack on mine too
same location as Alcaline. not that bad though.
I called the HTC repair center in France. it will take 8 days for changing the case. Should be cover by the warranty.

They cover this by warranty? Crap!
I have opened my device, thereby broken the warranty...
Same problem here. I've got two hairline cracks. one left of the camera button and one left of the Home key (same as picture above)
I contacted HTC today. They told me I could send my phone to Eurotwice for repair. Eurotwice told me that the phone could not be repaired under warranty, because HTC did not confirmed the 'hairline crack' problem.
Called HTC again and told them that I was surprised to hear that the problem could not be fixed under warranty since so many users are facing the same problem.
Now a ticket is created for me and escalated to another department within HTC. They are going to investigate this case and determine if this is a design error. If so they will release an announcement to the repair center and my phone can be repaired under warranty.
For now I have to wait....
I keep you guys informed about the progress

craiglist for 325.00
cheap han, everything i got but the box and battery cover, hopefully soon i will find it.
Most likely somebody stole it from a display and thats why there is no back cover. Happens a lot.
Really? They attach the security to a £3 piece of plastic... lol
Ive been lookon for one to that dam platinum case put alot of fine scratches on mine. Ive only found one place that sells them but theyre out of stock right now

Why are there so many without a battery cover? I noticed that when I was looking for mine.
just a reminder.
the cover will not be cheap as it will need to have the NFC antenna on it. else you can't use the NFC.
i believe this is the set-back for all other case manufacturer just to jump in a make one.

How was dealing with the Geek Squad reps? Did they interrogate you and give you hard time? Were they the ones that suggested that they'll just send you a new or did you have to mention it? Also, did y'all get batteries from them too?

Samsung Genuine Flip Cover / Flip case - Cheapest shop?

They are available for 37.99€ at:
http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/search/?searchterm=note+2+flip
...but has any one found them somewhere cheaper?
http://www.handtec.co.uk/search.php?xSearch=note+2+flip&submit=search+for+products
Out of stock at the moment but a bit cheaper.
clove.co.uk has the white and grey ones only (both currently out of stock, expected "late november") for £24.99. However +£3 UK delivery brings it up to £28.59 (still cheaper than the above, in the UK at least)
I'm hoping that we can get these cheaper from US retailers once US carriers release the phone.
I couldn't wait so got the white one from mobile fun now all I need is my best skins ever body cover hope they get it quick time.
lambda-tek.com £22.61 delivered. Just ordered the Titanium grey. If you live nearby you can collect for £14.81!

Crikey... Their delivery charges are way off the chart! Good job the product prices are low!
The china knock offs have been popping up on ebay if you want a much cheaper alternative. The quality is not as good as the genuine but for USD7 or so, cant complain.
Here's one i found http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Hard-Me...941151?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20cc43ae9f
^ I'd be pretty dubious about that one. No mention of an NFC antenna... Also, title says metal but description says not.
Yeah gonna need some more pictures at least, I can't tell if it clips on over the back or replaces it.
Can't fault Lambda-tek, ordered yesterday afternoon & arrived this morning at 08:30 - even beat the postman.
Yes delivery charge is ridiculous but overall works out cheaper then anywhere else I could find.
I am waiting for MobileFun to get the orange or blue ones in stock.
I prefer back cover with screen protector.

Has anyone checked the flipcovers from ebay out yet? Guess its the chinese models. they don't replace the back cover as far as i know.
Looks like they use a magnetic clip in order to stay shut. Anyone know if that's gonna be a problem for the Note II?
These are the ones i mean:

Whitestone dome alternate replacement glass

Sorry to make another Whitestone dome thread but I remember reading on XDA months ago about people trying other glass screen protectors with the adhesive/UV light and jig from a Whitestone dome kit.
Essentially I broke my Whitestone dome and I don't really feel like paying them another 35USD just for the glass. Does anybody have any experience trying this?
Thanks.

Hi!
I'm glad you responded. I'm currently debating this exact issue with your customer service team.
They are saying my warranty is only through the distributer (MobileZapp) and it is impossible to register the product on whitestone's website. Meanwhile, other distributers (Mobilefun UK) can be registered on the website and receive a warranty replacement.
Would you like to see my conversation with your customer service representative?

For me it is the second time that after a small fall breaks in a corner, I'm looking for a valid alternative, but I do not know which one.
this little one works well but it's very delicate, it got me tired,
I can not ask for the replacement every time I fall.

Nexus 6 midfram

I have a question what is this silver thing called that is on the back that covers some of the device? I ordered a digitizer + midfram assembly and I didnt get the silver thing. I'm trying to contact the seller now. Do I got to have the silver guard to use the phone?

[strikeout] I think that the midframe hides the silver shield. And that your picture was taken without a midframe. [/strikeout]
The above is wrong, sorry. When the midframe is included, the shield should also be there.
In a few days, I'll perform the same operation on my phone, then I'll know more.

Yes you do have to have the silver guard. That is the RF shield, which eliminates interference during a call from the device components. If you're replacing the midframe and digitizer you should be able to reuse the shield from the existing midframe.
I thought I would need that. Thank you. First I ordered a digitizer midfram assembly and it had everything I needed but the touch didn't work. 2nd time i bought a lcd digitizer midfram + assembly and the guard didn't come with it. I have ordered several of these digitizers and have never had an issue up untill now. I would have used my old metal guard but I threw it away because I always have ordered the whole assembly. From now one I'll keep my old stuff. It's very aggravating that this now makes the 3rd time trying to get what I need. The picture that I posted on here is the one I ordered. Now it'll be my luck that it will take forever before the seller responds to my message.

This is what I received from the ebay seller. And needless to say I'm pissed.
Be very careful when buying from ebay especially if it involves a part/s for the Nexus 6. The seller lied to me and said that I ordered somthing in which I did not, so now I have almost a hundred bucks in a lcd digitizer. Does anyone know where I can buy the silver guard thing?
If I end up with a spare, I can send it to you. I'll know in a few days.
I'll pay u for it.
I appreciate that. My son's been waiting for almost a month because everytime I order I end up not getting all the parts. The seller offered to give me a partial refund of 10% and to take it to a repair shop. I told the seller that I have replaced several lcd's on the nexus 6 and that I wasn't going to pay another 50 bucks or more to fix somthing that you (seller) screwed up in the first place.
