Do you have AppleCare or the Verizon insurance? I have Sprint and they only offer Apple's ins. It's $100 and if you damage your phone in anyway, the replacement is $50. This can be used up to two times. The 2nd time I broke it they were cool and didn't charge me the $50 (the one at Brea Mall), so I technically have one more use out if my ins. If you don't have AppleCare, you pay $150 and they'll give you a refurbished iPhone with a warranty.

Your phone may be able to be fixed. We do a water treatment on them and most of the time it works. Just keep it off until you can get it done. Put it in rice if you can. It is the corrosion that screws them up.

I tried to dive down, to deep for me.

I was in Ocotillo Wells last NYE and left my phone outside in the rain. Got home 3 days later, put it in a bag of rice and over night it turned on. I couldn't believe it.

Your exactly right, all cell phone company's treat you like shit. Hopefully your not far out on upgrade.

I think that best buy has insurance that's much better than going direct with the phone company

Wife cracked her screen this weekend.
I see replacements online for $20.
Anyone know where to see an online video of how to or anything like that...
It's a touch screen but just the glass is cracked.
Wondering if it is worth screwing with or not.
She says let it go, but it has sharp edges to get cut on now.
Its a cheaper phone too, so wondering whether I should bother or not??
THANKS!!
