How deep/ large is the scratch? Last time I went there I think they said they don't fix scratches larger than an inch. The only thing they did was hand over the asurion insurance business card and told me to call them to just get a replacement phone since I had insurance for the thing

My scratch is circual and spans the entire screen its deep enough for me to feel it with my finger (not nail)

Yeah your probably going to have to get a replacement phone from the insurance company.

That's like saying how can I reverse time, it ain't going to happen. I've even messed up during ODIN still got nothing.

It is very difficult to brick this phone although travismoreno seems to be good at it. he bricked quite a few with bad cables during Odin. I have had Odin freeze many time especially trying to make an EL30 prerooted tar ( didn't happen). And no brick.

So you want to fully brick your Epic?
If so use odin as if your flashing a modem and check repartition. It should be bricked after that.

last time I visited them for this reason, I believe that they said that they don't repair cracks larger than an inch.

You could try a NON corporate sprint repair center. Most of the ones I've ever been to will do it and sometimes free. In my case they just write a note saying the something else was defective and replace the screen (or phone). Most times if they can get the money from sprint they'll do anything

What's the fastest way to brick your phone??

I'm trying to send my old galaxy back to Tmobile because I got a new one... it was rooted I don't feel like unrooting and installing a stock ROM.... So Id rather just brick it like a free throw from Shaquille Oneal in his prime...

Just flash Any pit file thats not for the gs2

You can actually brick the damn thing and send it back to them isn't that telling them your phones rooted and it voids the warranty?

No because as far as they know, it was a hardware failure.
Damn so from now on I'll just brick it before I send it back lol cool hell I didn't know that

If you're going to flash just to brick it, why not just flash a stock rom? ... Oh well. Lol, brick away, install a tablet rom.

tmobile dont care if its rooted or not anymore.
my brother sent back his gs2 rooted for replacement without any issues and I just recently sent mine back aswell about a month ago. I got the text letting me know they got the phone ok and everything is good. I think they kind of figured if they continue to be hard on the root community we will just send a brick back to them and declare it a hardware issue..

Just go start a claim and before it processes it'll show you what they'll send out and just cancel it at that point

Yea they're right, asurion doesn't care if its stock, rooted or covered in piss, they'll replace it care free as long as you pay the $100

they don't care if its rooted. This is not a manufacturers warranty, its a 3rd party private insurance. They insure hardware, not software

Was it new in the box... ie, came in a retail box with battery, USB cable and charger. Or was it a refurbished device and came with out a battery and cables.

Screen help

Well I just got this s3 and cracked the screen already. I have the insurance so if I go to Sprint will the fix it? Give me new one? How much$$? Thanks
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Sprint will probably fix it
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
I don't think they do repairs so they go through the insurance (asurion).
You pay a deductible ($150)
Then they send you a phone.
Since the s3 is new, I think they'll send you a new one, rather than a refurb.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Dam 150 and you have to wait that sucks. O well on my way to see what they say.

I work for sprint and some repair store will fix it but some would cause of the glass its high priced and hard to put on ... so they do t want to risk damaging the phone .. best of to get a replacement.. however it will be refurbished.which doesn't mean its bad. good luck

[Q] How much to fix a bricked sg3 with samsung?

My screen got damaged on my sg3 and i have the chance to buy a bricked one for 150 to change the screen but my question is , how much would it cost for samsung to fix the bricked one ?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
You can fix the bricked one for 60 on top of the 150 at mobile tech videos... Here is the link... http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-jtag-brick-repair/
If you send the broken one to samsung it will run you about 180 for a new screen. so decide which route you want. You don't have insurance?

no i dont have insurance as i use straighttalk.
