I figured that was the case. I did a soft reset earlier today and it was still acting up. The only good thing is that its not acting up all the time. Being a beginner to taking phones apart and trying to fix them, I'll probably just have to suck it up and pay the deductable and hope I get another yellow one.
It is broke. Accept it.
I'll tell you how to feel better about the deductible: :wink:
Subtract the cost of a new screen and/or digitizer from the deductible. > $60
Then add the time required for you to stumble through a rebuild as a beginner. (We will say you found the tutorial and tools, so 3 hours). 3Hrs
Multiply the hours by the value of your time. US median avg $16.71 Hr. So, $50.13.
That comes to a minimum DIY expense of $110.13
subtract that figure from the deductible of $200.
Result is $89.87 to have it fixed for you and a warranty added.
Sooo,
for $200 you can get a rightly new 1520 with a fully acceptable factory warranty.
or
for $110 you get a working 1520 with no warranty and a questionable future.
....Humor and questionable logic set aside, sorry for your loss and frustration. I would be very upset with myself had I done the same thing. No case at the time of the drop?
