My gorgeous screen now has a thousand cracks through it. Ouch. Anyone have experience with this? Is it possible to replace the screen?

I have ATT insurance, but still sucks for an otherwise perfect device to go to waste

Yeah, I found that the soft-touch finish on the poly carbonate housing completely wore off. The phone is like a wet bar of soap now! I dropped mine too a couple of months ago. Just slipped out of my hand. One large crack from the top right corner to about midway down the opposite side. Doesn't affect functionality though so I'm still rocking it.

It's possible to swap out the screen if you can find a shop that will do it for you. Not gonna be cheap. I've been quoted around $150-$200.

Dropped my one x plus phone and completely shattered the screen. I stopped by radio-shack cos i saw their sign advertising broken phone screen repairs , they use a 3rd party company called werx screen replacement, but they didn't have the one x plus as a supported phone they repaired so i had to suck it up and go to HTC who charged me a cool $200
