Dropping your Nexus

[big_time2]

Hi all,

I dropped my Nexus 4 from a height of about 1.5 feet (onto a hard surface) and this happened.

Does anyone know if this is easily fixable? Handset still works with no problems.

Jesus fcuking christ that sucks man.

I dropped mine but only the back cracked. I was rushing out of the gym and was going to put it in my pocket and missed, bam right on the floor.

I've dropped mine twice, both over carpet floor. Although the second time was OVER carpet, it didn't land on carpet. Just my luck I had my longboard sitting on my floor and my n4 landed right on the edge of my longboard. I was pretty sure the back was shattered and it took me 5 minutes to build up the courage to pick it up. Luckily it wasn't damaged at all, and now I use a case all the time.

Sounds like you have a connection to them

That's your perception, but it would be false. I'm just a customer. I guess I wrote that post like an advertisement. Sorry, I didn't mean it to come across that way.

I am planning to never drop my phone. I know that sounds unrealistic but I don't use it nearly as often as most. I'm really never more than 100 feet from my tablet.

Never dropped it so far, but.. This night I dreamed about it xD The front and back screen was shattered into pieces and I was devastated
Luckily I woke up after that ^^

Today I am having a very bad day.... Already sick and...

I've just found out that there is one thing an iPhone can do that a Nexus 4 can't, when the screen shattered on the nexus the digitiser no longer works, ergo my phone is now useless.

You may need to send it in. I dont believe thatll be something that you can easily fix. May need a screen replacement.

That sucks though.
