So, I dropped my phone and cracked the screen, and have sent it off for repair.
Am amazed at how anxious I feel without it, it almost hurts. A dull ache in the chest...
I use my phone for meeting planning, music, video, books, pretty much everything, even the phone sometimes... and without it.. I just feel so sad..
Had to break out the old SE960i. I turned it on it's side and the display stayed in portrait... and the screen is so small.... and there is nowhere to put my SD card... and I can't flash a new rom... I could go on....
Anyway, thanks for listening, just had to get that off my chest....
Sad is it not the modern generation . Nothing to live for .
Need constant outside stimulation .

I didn't have it quite that bad when I was stuck with a Moto Dext for a loaner for a month due to the i9000m SD card issue.
It was android (1.5) and the screen still auto-rotated, but it was so dull and small compared to the SGS. Browsing was horribly slow.
i'll die without a hi tech device (smart phone)
cutting off the internet, is like cutting off the air we breath in
my brain is out there
no seriously...
it's a bit like the ghost in the machine thing
except that it serves as alarm clock, i wouldnt care too much. i would be bothered if its gone too long just because i like to play with it, but it's not like if it was such a big deal for the rest of it
i almost got sectioned into the local 'nut house' when i was without my precious second girlfriend lol
i almost rang the doctor for anti depressants..... Horrible flashback.... still suffering insomnia because of the nightmares i had....

Ok, you probably won't believe me when I tell you this... Because I am not so sure I would believe it myself... but here goes.
I have a scooter whose digital dash is not displaying the correct speed.
My solution???
Velcro my EVO to the dash and run SpeedView and use that as my speedometer.
Everything has worked fine since I started doing this last summer. But recently the back of my EVO has become loser fitting.
So today; while traveling about 50 miles per hour; I hit a bump and my EVO sails off the dash (leaving the back still velcro'd on the bike) and hits the road. The battery flies off and the phone comes to rest *laying on it's face*.
Gasp.....
I get off the bike and run out in the road to pick up the phone and battery before someone runs over them. Then I put the battery back in the phone and the phone's back cover on.
Surprise!!! The phone works flawlessly and has no scratches on the screen or case damage. Which amazes me because what scratches I do have come from the phone being in my pocket.
And that's not all!!!
This is the *second* time this has happened in the past month.
Guess I need to buy a solid case to hold it in place.
But who would have thought the EVO was so durable????
Where's John Cameron Swayze when we need him?

My sentiments exactly...
I'm just wondering why anyone else hasn't suggested that you simply fix your speedometer which prolly's gonna cost less than a replacement EVO.
You're leading a charmed life, but as others have said, it won't last forever. You'll probably drop it on to carpet from 18 inches and shatter the screen.

I'm on my third EVO and all I've learned is that hard falls are often the least of your worries. Sure, I can accidentally throw my phone across a bar downtown while imitating some Guido and the screen will be perfect when I go retrieve it, but drop an EVO six inches onto your pillow... you're looking at a $100 dedcutible mon frer.

Right!, I recommend the OP to call back and tell them that he lost the phone
T-Mobile G2 1.42 GHZ
That'll buff out.
I dropped mine and the screen stopped working right sometimes. it would constantly think I still had my finger on the screen and would long press ****. and roughed that phone up so much and couldn't break it. I hit the screen, slammed it on counters (broke the battery door), skipped it across a retail store floor, and then kicked it. I even skipped it across a parking lot!
I was honestly surprised at the durability.
He can still say that. And i suppose its gonna be the same....
wow cheapxj. you could've easily fixed the hinge problem by reading the forums or even the sticky a little bit. there's a 2 posts that talk about how to replace the spring in the hinge. I swapped mine out for a 25lb spring rate one and it stays in place even while i'm typing it on my back complete with an otterbox case.
it wouldn't fix the terrible network it was connected to, the "soft" home keys irritated me and it was almost impossible for me to use the top row of keys with any kind of case on it because they're too close to the top.
not to mention it destroyed 3 SD cards in just a few months.
i went motorola/verizon and have NEVER been happier with my service. i don't mind paying more if I actually get what I pay for.
what are you guys doing that screws up the hinge or buttons?
I've had my G2 for 8months, use it everyday for calls, sms, emails, mp3 player, internet... Ive got not issues, and if I did, I would just get it fixed.
This phone has a good quality display, good touch screen, nice qwerty and plenty of customs ROMs to choose from. It's easily better than my old Xperia X10i and a bit better than my old Nexus one.
And breaking SD cards?
If your SD card becomes corrupt, put it into a computer and format it.
You are going to have problems with an device, only god knows what would happen if you had an iPhone, you'd probably shoot it off into the sun.

Sure there's plenty more games that do the same. I'm not a gamer myself, and my oldest has my old SGS for her games, but the kiddy-game market is growing. Apologies for my 11-post jibe, it was unnecessary.

Well, let's see... on three occasions that I fornicated with my wife, three offspring came out nine months later. I was there during all three of said occasions, and delivered the middle offspring (the gamer) myself.
So pretty sure, yes.
Bumping my own thread, I'm a bad man.
Your replies were very witty, and I laughed incessantly.
However, I'm right and you're all wrong. All these lavasoft games - Restaurant/Farm/Zoo Story really do drain battery quickly. A combo of wifi, bright colours and eager progeny is hardly conducive to prolonged battery life. They certainly drain it quicker than my boy's other games (e.g., Cut The Rope, Angry Birds).

I don't let them surf the net alone, under any circumstances. My middle kid is 7, and he's not getting a mobile before he's 10 (there's 6 year olds where I live tooled up with mobiles, which is ridiculous).
Any online games he plays are on my phone, always with me present, and no invites/social interaction without me vetting first. He has a DS and a Wii, and I don't allow online play with them.

And I tried to install plan b, I read lifehackers post on it awhile ago, but these people were expert thieves, they changed the service to another phone, and tried to make a purchase with it almost immediatly. Luckily, the charge was canceled and I ended service for the phone, then they sent me the new phone I'm currently using.
I would have loved it to work, but alas, sad. My only concern now is if there is a way to deauthorize that phone from my google account. Other than that, as soon as I get around to rooting this thing, I'll be fine.

I broke my screen digitizer a few weeks ago. Luckily I was able to buy one off ebay and replace it myself. The only thing that I did wrong was I didn't really reglue it down to the frame, so dust and dirt has been getting underneath the screen (which you can see behind bright backgrounds). BTW, if anyone breaks theirs, here's a great video on how to take apart the whole phone.

Coworkers husband impersonation of me. He walked around with a phone book to his ear.
GALAXY NOTE
My co-workers come over to my desk with 7in and 10in tablets up to their ear like they're talking on the phone. Then they're like "oh, hey man, whats up?" Every time it's a different tablet. (they're huge nerds. well-paid nerds)
When I bring out the phone to put it on a table or to check the time, my friends introduce it to other people as a tablet. It annoys me, so they keep doing it, and insist it's a tablet after I repeatedly tell them it's a phone.
Most people ask if it's a tablet first, because it's just big enough to be a tablet, but also small enough to be a big phone. I just say "nah, it's a phone". Cuz IT IS A PHONE. But also maybe a tablet. screw you. they just jealous.

my coworkers told me my television was ringing
Friend ask me if my ipad shrunk because I left it in the dryer.
Another person said I'm using a clown phone.
I just smile because I really love this phone. It fits very well in the side or inside front pocket of most of my jackets
coworkers: woah, it's HUGE!
i said, 'That's what she said."
Well, people got confused, but never got that crazy reactions.
The worst one was:
"Wow, a Samsung? I would respect you more if you got an HTC..."
Coming from a girl who at least likes Android, and from a guy who likes the iPhone.
Though the iPhone guy actually liked it after a bit.

Everyone who sees my Galaxy note always asks "Why do you own such a big phone?"
my answer was always "I'm not really used to holding anything less than 5.3 inches"
haha!
Just flown back from Edinburgh with BA used phone with app for boarding pass when checking in I got a bloody hell what's that then boarding the staff got all excited that's a big one then asked if it was a Samsung iPhone. I politely said that if my phone had feelings it would now be very upset but lucky for you it's just a phone..
