I thought I would share with you the sad results of my Vibrant after it got in a fight with a car door.
Luckily I still have my G1.

Why do people think screen protectors will protect against breakage? SPs protect against scratches - not shattering.
Yea no screen protector can help that Lol!

Maybe. However, I have heard too many people claim SP will broke against breakage...
Yeah most people think, "if it falls from a 5 story building, screen first it'll be okay since I have a screen protector".
Luckily, I have a case, and a screen protector. I know if that happened to me, I would still be screwed. I also have the T-Mobile insurance ;D.
Make sure u throw ur vibrant at the car door and make a dent so the vibrant can have the last word and get his revenge

The car door exploded at impact with the Vibrant.
I don't always complain, but when I do, I #BlameWes
What's the verdict? Does vibrant has Gorilla Glass or not?
Joking aside, sorry about your phone. I hope you have the Tmobile insurance.
Awesome destruction
You should hot glue it to plaque' and then stain it. Then you could sell it on Ebay as art.
ouch.

We need to believe that SP makes our phones super safe because that's the only way we can justify buying them
**facepalm**
Of course it was a joke...duh
I'm still wondering how it happened.
I mean for the phone to be on the door opening at the right time.
in most cars the phone will either fall outside on inside the car.
It must have performed an awesome balancing act to be broken right down the middle.
what i bet happened is that he raged and slammed it against the edge of a table or countertop.
Accidental damage warranty exchange?
I just hope the people who are overly complaining stay that way. One thing that blows my mind is when someone complains before they even see the product. Now don't get me wrong I know everyone want a evo 2, but nothing wrong with sprint trying something new out. And to those threatening to leave your contract because of this, lol like people haven't said this before and got raped with no lube by the next carrier you went to - give me a break.
[update] This phone is horrid, i tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, and i guess you can't do that with sprint (my first time signing up with them in sept ember), oh well wait for MWC.

that would be a first but they can't even get Qik to work right. They need to enhance the service before bringing some phone with a hinge into the mix. EVO's screen is big enough WTF am I gonna really do with 2 and 3D don't ever go there. I need a 3D phone like I need a hole in my head. I can put my foot on a hinge while Sprint wears some 3D glasses and kickem in the face. This is upsetting.

What you need is some basic punctuation and grammar lessons. QIK works just fine for me. every time i've fired it up, it works exactly as described. as for the rest of it, is there any point to getting bent outta shape by an announcement that hasn't happened?

No one, not even you knows the full truth of what's coming out. So don't go beating on rumors and talk cause that just puts you in the middle of crowd. Hell, even if it does turn out to be 3d dual screen and what ever else the rumors report, you've got no idea of the specs. That's our favorite report. So hold your pants on. We've got what, another hour to go? Or some crap like that.

You have a point. Even if it is 3D(which i'm NOT a fan of) what if it's some 2ghz beast-mode phone?? All we gotta do is wait for the community here to get there hands on it. i'm sure it'll be usable in no time!
im getting excited and maybe industry and maybe they will release it tomm

Well just an FYI.. the plan im switching to on Verizon is only $10 a month more than what im paying on Sprint. And I get LTE inside my house so its worth it to me.
Yes, I understand that there are several threads that discuss this, but everybody seems to find an answer and I don't. My notification bar does not slide down, but it does while in landscape mode (on the left side the whole way up and down). I ran a screen test and there was nothing wrong, and I didn't drop it. Anybody know what it could be?
Have you tried wiping and reflashing your ROM/ kernel?
I had this EXACT problem. only.. it happened right after i dropped it. i just called sprint and told them idk y it was doing it so they replaced my phone.
full wipe and reflash the rom.
It also helps us more if we know what rom and kernel you're running

I had the stock rom when I started.. I whiped and reflashed to MikiFroYo rom, idk what the kernel is. I can't get another one because I bought this on eBay and don't have insurance for it :/ I wanted to get an otterbox or something for it, but I have an extended battery on it.
Well you can get insurance with Sprint that's what I did and I just my EVO from eBay also....I'm not sure if you can get it anytime or if its open enrollment this month....I suggest you check it out...oh and my bar is messed up too.
I've haven't had access to my notification bar for probably 6+ months. Just click menu and notification and move on with life lol. I heard it could be as simple as cable on motherboard isn't fully inserted as in popped out on a drop. Or rough handling.

I've had this issue with themes on several ROM's. Remove the theme and run the ROM as normal and the bar returns. Install the themes again and it goes away.

Actually yes, that makes you cheap and ghetto. $100 is a fair price for a refurb considering your busted a** piece that you call an EVO has a cracked screen and it's still cheaper than any upgrade you're thinking about getting.

Lol, I've had my EVO since launch. Ghetto people like yourself disgust me. You didn't say you wanted to upgrade. I was just making my point. That point would be that your cheap and that getting a refurb would be more cost effective for ghetto people like you than to upgrade. Use your brain before you open your mouth or put your fingers on a keyboard.

funny how my non issue became your "issue". people like you who try way way to hard disgust me. from other users who have had same problem found out it could be loose cables or indeed a fall; in regards to op's post. ego fanatic you though decided to open your **** hole and spill it all out on me for what? use your brain before putting your fingers on the keyboard. im not posting of a notification bar issue but helping another member looking for answers. for me, ive dealt with it cause I DONT CARE!!!!! ghetto? cheap? nope. far from it. just dont give two ****s. but obviously, you making a scene, clogging up the boards with your spillage from your debunked head, dont give a damn about the community. your just a newbie, trying to gain some kinda status....which worked.....your officially a complete moron. congrats!
I have a scratch coming from the upper part of the screen going right and down. It's very small right now.
I was freaking out because my last phone was a pre which cracked and slowly went across the screen.
My question is I know the screen is glass so is there a coating on the screen that is just scratched or do I now have to worry about it slowly spreading across my screen?
I dunno man but if that was my phone I would be sick to my stomach. I know what some of you are thinking. Christ, its just a damn phone. True, but I am very careful with my phones and treat them like they're my baby. God I'm so embarassed admitting this!
The first and only time I let someone use my epic, they immediately dropped it on the concrete. It had a case on it and I don't think the phone was damaged but I cussed at them anyways (it was a customer too). I will NEVER again let someone touch my phones after that incident.
Hahaha. I lost 3 of my 6 pres to the usb crack.
I don't know the answer to your question, but I'm slightly worried about my phone too.. it does look like there might be a crack towards one side of my screen. I bet we're just traumatized by the pre where if you waited out a problem, it didn't get better. The good thing, I guess, is that I got used to dealing with asurion.

How does it work? Is there a 2.1 OC kernel? I haven't been keeping up. I was thinking of digging mine out to try out the new webos when I first read about it on precentral, but I forget it exists most of the time now. I never thought I'd buy into android, but htc phones are great.

Sent from my PC36100
My charging port has been loose & I've been putting off taking it in. I just might have to now. I didn't think that the 3D was worth the upgrade, but it's worth the replacement.
Worst case scenario is that I get another Evo, and that's all I need anyway.
Sent from my Evo + MIUI using Tapatalk!
Jeez, I'd hate it if my Evo broke, but if they're giving up 3D's so soon after they came out as an even trade... day-um!
Wow, sounds like a pretty kick ass deal. I was considering doing an insurance claim cause my power/unlock button kind of stopped working but it works now, kinda. Has a mind of its own, works sometimes and does work other times... I was wondering how they would be doing replacements since they stopped making the OG Evo. I also felt that the 3D was not worth the upgrade at all, but hell I would gladly take one to replace my old Evo. Only thing I would miss is the dev community and the stupid amount of choices we have as far as roms and mods lol. I think it is safe to say that no other android phone has a bigger dev community than the OG Evo.
My charging ports also been broken for a couple months I just haven't bothered to fix it. I have an external charger

That's exactly what I thought. I wasn't gonna use an upgrade on it but a trades totally worth it
I love my EVO too, but I wouldn't be that unhappy if I had to upgrade. I do enjoy being able to change ROMs whenever and to whatever I want basically, but I've tried AOSP, I've tried MIUI, and I keep coming back to Sense, so I'd probably just go to Eternity ROM on 3D and be done with it. I would still miss my EVO though.
