Yeah its still working perfect. Just a couple of noticeable scratches in the centre of the display. Really annoying because my screen protectors have been delivered today.

I feel for you. I dropped my 1st One X (fell out of my pocket) when I was kneeling down and somehow I had a mark on the screen. I couldn't stand it. Plus I had a yellow spot on the screen too. After having the mark on the screen I sold it and got a new one.
Have you tried going to a repair shop? I looked around where I live and a guy quoted me $139.00AUD to do my phone. But it doesn't matter no because I sold it.

I had some scratches on my screen which isn't visible except under sunlight. I put my phone in my pockets alone. My keys are in a seperaate pocket. And I as far as I know gorilla glass is suposed to be anti-scratch. And I remmember that I read somewhere that I can ask for a replacement if I had a scratch on the gorilla glass. So anyone haf similar issue and managed to get a replaceme?

I Recognized some little scratches on the Screen and Cameralense that can only be seen in the right angle and light. And some parts of the edges are chipped. Can this be a reason for a replacement?

Well, where did you get your device from?
Media Markt 2 days before release
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Oh :/
I asked because if you had bought it on Amazon, you would be able to replace the device in the first 30 days without a reason...
But I don't think MediaMark is going to replace your device, as scratches happen and aren't covered by warranty.
However, why don't you go to the mediamarkt and try?
I will try in 2 weeks when i am back home. If media Markt doesn't replace it HTC has to replace it?

Like I said, I don't think you'll get a replacement because of scratches, because it is no technical failure.
I dropped my phone yesterday accidentally and now it's cracked St the bottom of the screen..
It really looks ugly and I'm looking for a screen replacement for how much do you think it's a good price for the screen? Is it safe?
How much do you think it's the price of my phone now that the screen its cracked?

Like 200$ for the lcd + glass. Or like 15$ for just the glass, its hard to replace but manageable.

I work at a cell phone repair store. We charge like 275 for the repair and a good quality part will run like 225. I have fixed like 30 gs3s so far and I am going to warn you now..... Do not attempt to just replace the glass. I you will just be wasting your time. To the guy that said it is manageable, until you try it yourself, please don't give advice like that out. It very much is not manageable to do. But if you have any experience repairing phones, just order the screen plus lcd yourself and do it. It is very easy on the gs3

Depending where your at I would google search repair centers and call around for the best price. If that doesn't work perhaps Craigslist? I met a really cool tech guy off there and he works on mainly iphones but knows a lot about android devices as well.

Plenty of people, including myself have replaced just the glass with great success. If you arent a mechanical type person, then no, i would not attempt it, but its not impossible.

If you feel confident enough you can replace the screen yourself. Here is a very good guide on youtube:

Quite a few ppl have replaced just the glass here on xda..
If my glass was broken I'd try to fix it.. If I screw up I'd have to replace the entire thing anyway so might as well try to fix it for 15 first.
Or am I missing something?

Mine its broken something similar to yours, but I'm really disappointed with this s3 quality..
I dropped it seated on my car in soft ground and it hit with the bottom right corner and welcome cracked screen, it divided like in 7 parts, one like 80% of the creen and the other 6 about the same size

It isn't about the quality, the screen is curved in the edges so it becomes extremely weak there, one unlucky corner drop that avoids the plastic bezel and hits the screen and welcome cracks.
Now i dropped mine many times and found that the phone drops on it's back most of the time and survives, but i almost broke it when it dropped on the side, luckily it hit the bezel and there was no damage, not even a scratch/bend.
So yep.. luck.

+ 1 on that.
if you have a proper case it'll decrease the chance...but yea with an unprotected phone it comes down to luck really. takes that one spot to crack your screen.

Someone asked about fragility of G Pro

Im also a bit more concerened about phone durability. I take care of my things but I want a little more cushion for when accidents happen. Is the OG Pro just as fragile as the s4? Has anyone managed to accidentally crack theirs?

Looking on it in near sight I've already noticed one thing. The glass doesn't cover full size of the phone but instead has .2mm spare space to the edges of phone. Also the glass in not surrounded by banking board. Also the glass has beveled edge, about 70° sharp.
So I presume that the glass would not crack even if the phone would be dropped from 6 feet height. Unless of course it would be dropped flat fall on screen
Another indirect proof of that is here. Watch Note 2 has cracked glass when G Pro doesn't have severe damages
If you think this device is drop proof you are delusional. I haven't watched the linked video nor do I need to. The front is glass and could crack from a 6" fall. Many things factor in here including luck.

Well, someone eventually will test it, people drop their phones here and there.
And also I'll attach here link to this topic Optimus G = UNBREAKABLE
Well no phones drop proof obviously but ive had 2 friends that had lg phones and ive had one myself and I can tell u theyre probably the some of the best built on the market. My connect was dropped, thrown, stepped on, kicked and all manner of torment and worked like the day I bought it till the day I traded it in on this. Ive seen lg phones survive multiple (so many I lost count) drops that would have sent a samsung or htc device to the scrap heap...

Exactly. My wife has a One X. She has dropped, thrown it onto a hard floor with force, and let's our 3 old play with it like it's his. It has a ton of scratches, but hasn't broken. Some were saying when it released that it was super fragile. I guess since hers has been abused it must be the toughest phone ever made. Right? No, she's been extremely lucky.

I dropped my GPro out of my lap when I was getting out of my truck and it hit the asphalt pretty hard on a corner and barely nicked it. The phone pretty much looks flawless. Seems durable to me as long as u don't drop it face first. Lol

Do not go without a case, this phone is not durable at all! This is what happens from slding out of my pocket while in a chair and falling <18" to a patio.

I'm assuming by patio you mean stone/brick/concrete/pavers, right? If that's the case, most phones wouldn't be too fond of an 18" drop.
Yeah, but I've had other phones hit asphalt from 4-5 feet high on the corner and survive with only nick in the bezel. My post is just a warning that this phone is definitely not "drop proof". I've only had the OGP for four days and already have to shell out $ for an insurance claim. Sad thin is my case I ordered is supposed to show up today.
