hi guys., i just dropped my phone from my waist to the floor... the screen bottom left hand side has cracked... just slightly cracked. the screen is black now and i can;t access it at all. receiving calls and sms have no problem. how much does warranty charge for my case? and how long will it need to be fully repaired? Will my phone look nice as before?
*
happy new year dude. although that 'happy' i guess can't apply to you here. sorry to hear that. you didn't use any casing? screen is not covered under warranty. you can read it, it stated there that it doesn't cover cosmetic damages. so it gonna cost you around 500 to 600+. It can reach 700 if you're unlucky. Better send to samsung center if you wanna retain your warranty. but gonna take longer time. fast is 3 days. long would be 7 days. can be longer than that as well, if you're unlucky, depend on stock parts availability.

i just sent mine last friday. also cracked screen, but the touchscreen can still function 100%. still waiting for it to finish. mine costs around 520. hopefully in this week can get it back.

Added on January 1, 2013, 2:20 amyes i don't use casing.

yep, fortunately only the outer glass crack. like this

i'd say thanks to my protective casing. yep cheapo that i got free from buying the phone. but still it protects pretty well, considering the fact that my phone fell from the bike, chest high, while travelling at 30km/h. dropped on my peha first, the straight to tarmac.

after this when you repaired your phone, better get a protective casing. i'm saving money for kraken ams right now. got one supplier here in lyn with awesome price.

i dropped just from my waist to the floor... and my screen has just cracked a little bit... very facking little bit. and the screen goes to completely black now... notifications, vibration, sounds, working well but the screen isn't, god bless

that's why casing is also important. it gonna help protect your phone from those accidents. mine for my own stupidity, riding motorcycle yet so busy with navigating around google maps.

how does a casing help a phone actually...
*
as in it gonna protect your phone from physical harm. not completely, but it helps. instead of direct hit to your phone, the casing will receive all the first contact damages. if you prefer the one that looks cool, there are a lot out there. even the leather casing with flip cover also help. for me i'd go for extreme casing, such example is this.

as maximum as i can get in terms of physical protection

If you dont need the "stand" just get Trident Aegis lor.. cheaper.. hehe.. same pattern also..just without the "stand"

Try this 2 links bro...

http://buytoughcase.com/#

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2238693

He is one of the biggest tough case supplier in Malaysia. Comes with 1 year warranty. If you want cheaper and dont mind waiting for 3-4weeks maybe you can search at ebay. 

Happy New Year! smile.gif
*
yeah that guy pm'ed me. i was searching for ballistic hardcore case tough. like this one.
user posted image

not in malaysia yet. but he offered me kraken ams, similar tough design. and in blue and green. straight fell in love wub.gif

i do mind waiting since i'm currently waiting for my phone to finish repair at lowyat sc. so long even though told me got stock parts. ceit. and i do think i need the stand since i watch bluray movie on my phone. my netbook sucks.

edit : one more thing. does lowyat sc open today? is there any possibility that my phone finish repair today? thinking of calling 1800889999 to check

what's the exact price? RM1720?


Added on January 1, 2013, 11:21 am

for me i think ballistic is too dam bulky.. Trident is just nice and stylish.. just get Trident la.. haha.. i also using Trident..  tongue.gif
*
i also want trident. but specifically kraken ams blue la. although my original concern was protection. cause ballistic hardcore like in the picture is 5 layer protection. highest so far that i've known. but then again if keep on dropping phone, might as well use 3310. haha where did you bought your trident case?

QUOTE(waveweaver @ Jan 1 2013, 11:43 AM)
If you dont mind AP set then you better buy the LTE version either at DirectD or SatuGadget.
There the price for Grey LTE is RM1799

If you dont want to wait for buying good casing then you can try Otterbox. Ready stock at their Otterbox kiosk Times Square.
*
i tried otterbox while surveying. not to my liking much since its kinda wide and not much of a style. felt like holding a note 2 instead. so far trident is the only one that i like. and the guy told me that he has kraken ams in stock. haih just need the money right now.

The last time i checked, Court prices only applicable for 60 mths flexi credit. cry.gif
Dunno if it is New Yea promotion though!!
*
as a person that once been a courts customer (flexi pay) i'd say no. because the total amount that you gonna pay monthly is a lot more than advertised. damn scam. bought my first laptop there. cheapo specs, priced at 2100. total amount paid after 2 year installment was almost 3000.

yea.. the interest is scary.. so the RM1.7k note 2 is freaking scam..  sweat.gif

i checked there once, for commuter is around 139. the defender is 169. the bangla kept trying to convince me if i use the defender can throw to wall can still survive. damn.

about the interest, i guess it do stated in the agreement, but being the consumer, we easily overlook this kind of thing. oh well.

most people propose deleting the cache for messaging app. never encountered this on my phone so i don't really know. usually just restart the phone if anything feels sucky.

Until now there are still many 2G users out there. For me no worry at all cause by that time there could be some convertor for 3G to 4G..... anyway 3G won't die to fast maybe another 10 to 15 or more... laugh.gif


Added on January 2, 2013, 1:40 pm

What you repairing for less than RM50? hmm.gif
*
that's why. what kind of s3 repair can cost less than 50? pretty impossibru i tell you. just called samsung call centre again, this time say can pulak. ahhhh buduhnyaaaa mereka iniiiii. just for people who curious, the cost for my lcd crack repair is below 600. so if you're lucky, might be the same. but i do think it depends on your s3 color.
