[OFFTOPIC] Phone Dependency

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....

Was in my pocket, but my MPB and Nikon D7000 body survivedish (they work enough to use for the time being).
I was riding along doing 50 on this semi-country road when some lady decided to cross at the 2-way stop ahead of me. She never looked my way (all I could see was the back of her hair) and pulled out when I was about 1 car-length infront of the intersection.
I made it out okay, surprisingly, but I'm thankful I was wearing a top of the line helmet and jacket. Minor skin wounds and one bone fractured in my right knee, but still, not bad for breaking her windshield with my head, then flying across the intersection and landing about 15 feet on the other side.

WoW! F the phone, good thing you made it out fine

Oh, I'm not worried about the phone. I'm very thankful to still be here and not hurt worse. If I hadn't of been knocked out and my legs weren't so bruised, I could have probably walked away. I'm just glad my macbook made it out, so at least I have something to use while I'm stuck in bed for a week and wait for the lady's insurance to come through.
But yeah, don't ride motorcycles, guys. I bought the Ninja 250 a month ago, hadn't had one close call, then this happened out of the blue...so no more riding for me, ever!

Glad you're ok. i worry about this every time i jump on my bike. damn old people in Florida suck at driving!

I guess her insurance owes you another 500 for the phone. Glad you made it out ok, that's the bad thing about motorcycles, its always the idiot driver in a car that gets the biker hurt.

Dude, I'm just really glad to hear your OK man!

Yeah, I figured it would be some old person that knocked me, but it was some girl in her twenties.

If you really like riding you'll be back. Same thing happen to me 3 weeks after buying my r6. Totaled bike and a fractured right patella. Jerk said he didn't see me. What pissed me off is if he would have kept going I would have had enough room to stop or manuver but he slam is brakes dead center and I had no escape. 3 months in a cast and then three months in physical therapy and here I am still loving it on a gixxer. Sorry about you accident dude hope your knee heals ups soon.

I'm glad you're okay man. Motorcycle wrecks suck. I have been in two of them myself. There are two kinds of riders...riders who have crashed...and riders who will crash. It happens, and can happen, no matter how good of a rider you are or how many precautions you take. You can never control the idiocy of other people on the road, unfortunately. Glad you're okay though.
My last bike accident got me a nice ride on a Med Flight Chopper, broke C7, T4, and T5 vertebrae, my left wrist, and some nasty road rash. I haven't yet felt good enough to get back on a bike yet. Can't wait though, if my neck/back ever fully heals up. There is nothing more fun than riding though, I love it!

Damn. Glad you're ok man.

Wow, glad you're alright and that you were smart enough to gear up like that. The only time I've ever seen a person die in front of me it was someone on a motorcycle, and they didn't have a helmet or nothing on.
I've been looking for another bike myself but down here in Florida I really don't trust the old people. You've got to watch them to make sure they look at you and even then it's not guaranteed they won't do something stupid.

Dude, that's one epic crash. God must have some plans for you to still be alive
It's great to hear you are okay. I hope that lady gets whats coming to her.

Glad to see that you faired much better than your phone. But now you have an excuse to go get the Evo 3D.

Glad you survived. When I was tumbling on the ground through mine, all I was thinking was never again on a motorcycle am I. And I was also thinking, "damn this isn't happening in slow motion like they said it was supposed to be."

The kickstand seems like a good idea for the user but it does propose a problem for the manufacture. You would assume most people would take care of their phones and be careful now-a-days, but most people aren't and any movable part is a part that can break no matter how the quality is it can still break. So they probably moved away because of people trying to get insurance claims or free repairs. Or you can go with the thought of they took it off to make more money. By that I mean if you don't have a kickstand how much more apt are you to buy a $30-$60+ desktop dock? All is this is just IMO, but food for thought.

True, but I don't think that I'd buy a dock anyway. You are right about the whole repairs thing and that the regular person nowadays doesn't really take care of their device.

I can almost guarantee someone will make a decent case with a kickstand built-in.
This will certainly be my next phone as it is the only one worthy to replace the original DINC.. My only hope is that they rename this one the Incredible HD or something with the DINC name for the U.S.

Not only Backglass unglues.

I've been using my Xperia Z with good care, used it to do alot of high-end gaming and the phone really gets hot, but one thing I love to do is listen to music, I don't use a Bluetooth connection or anything and it has apparently put straint on the phone panels.
I noticed this earlier today while plugging in my headphones, like normal.

Seriously buddy OMG...i had that top left panel unglue issue on my XZ...but this is seriously bad....

Go to Sony Service. I've read on another forum (cant' remember where) that a guy got his phone replaced for something like that.

When I read this I had to see how bad mine was since my backglass is unglued. Pulled off the headphone flap en lifted that other part up and tadaa, same issue. When I did it it made some noise like the glue fell apart.
I think you better don't try it, since it seemed to be good until I tried, lol. Gotta get my backglass repaired anyway so I'll tell them about this problem also. I hope they swap it for a new one haha.

I think you better don't try it, since it seemed to be good until I tried, lol. Gotta get my backglass repaired anyway so I'll tell them about this problem also. I hope they swap it for a new one haha.

I shouldn't probably, but I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem. I hate sending in for repair, means I'll be without a phone for a week.
I need my phone... D:

I know, I do too. Fortunately there is a shop here which is connected to my provider, which repairs them while you wait. I'm not sure if they will repair this also, so I call them first.
My backglass is unglued for like two months now. Last week I cycled in the rain and when I stopped and pressed my back glass there was water coming out of the phone lol. Nothing damaged though

holy sh*t!

I don't get how you guys have these problems with the Z?! The only thing i can think of is harsh chemicals such as chlorine,heavy soap etc. I have taken a shower,(steamy) washed my phone with soap (SoftSoap) and don't get these problems. Allot of people that have had this happened to them was due to harsh chemicals.....BTW had my phone since March 6 months later...still going strong!!!

I haven't used any chemical substances at all. I've used my phone like you should.
This is just weak glue, due to phone getting very warm, and while I listen to music the flap rests on the panel, which makes it open.
Why would anyone use chlorine on their phone

If it doesn't come up by itself don't try force it people. Sticking you fingernail under it will make it come off really easy. Doesn't happen just by headphone port. Happens by micro SD port to where the charging dock connectors are.

Since I'm going for a warranty repair anyway, I tried it and yes, you're right. I could open it too, if I gave it some force, but it still sticks fine , and doesn't constantly opening by itself - you really do have to force it
