[Q] Broke screen of LG G2 for the second time - Tips Needed - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Broke display of my LG G2 for the second. time. Both times the phone fell from less than 1 m height on to concrete floor. The same thing happened with my colleagues phone also. I hate putting cases or screen guards on my phone as i will lose the original feel of the phone. I have already spent half the price of phone for getting it repaired. Is this happening with everyone ? What is the thinnest protection case available for G2 on market ?

answer
hi, there, I have been used the Pure Gear slim shell protective case for my LG G2, so it´s very thin and light. if you want to add a light good quality case to your handset PureGear it´s a good idea.

Tempered glass screen protector, feels just like the original glass and prevents micro scratches / weak points happening.

@shafee005 I just suggest to you to use a cheap tpu case, it maybe is less comfortable but think about it that that 1 euro investment or lower if you order from china that will spare you another broken screen. I also suggest to use a screenprotector even if you lose the original feel from the phone don't forget that this spares you another screen.
I don't want to be a partypooper but I think that this thread belongs in Q&A.

Great inexpensive Tilt/Kaiser case

Just FYI. I picked up a Cellet "NOBLET2" leather case for my Tilt at a local Fry's for $15.
EXCELLENT case, especially for the cost. Great belt clip. Magnetic closure. I'm really happy with it. If you're looking for an inexpensive case for your device, I recommend taking a look at this brand.
Happy Shopping!

Packaging looks like this:
If it is a magnetic case, can you check to see if the magnet is affect the phone in any way? I have seen mine going from portrait to landscape when I put a magnet next to the front of the phone. Who knows whatelse the magnet may trigger.
I haven't seen my case have any effect on the portrait/landscape mode of the phone. I always put the screen side towards my body, and almost always put the phone in the case while asleep.
I have a Cellet case like the one above (but with one central magnet) for my 8525 and have no issues with it.
Not only is this case inexpensive (got mine on e-bay), but it also looks and feel very good.
Highly recommended.
I had a problem with my MDa VARIO II which had a magneting closing. When I used the bluetooth headset people complained that they could hardly hear me and that there was a lot of static on the line. So If i were you avoid magnetic cases. I am extremely happy the my TyTn II came with the one with velcro closing
Ive only been able to find these online for like $25 plus shipping... anyone know where to get them on the cheap?

I have a zagg protection on my phone, so scratches is not a problem
I will google that

I've made one myselfx, it's very easy. Just measure the screen, cut a clear transparent plastic and apply with a few drops of water with dish soap, then use a credit card to remove the air bubbles. Very very easy, cheap and effective. I don't even notice there is a layer of protective film on my screen

hi all,
only got my optimus the other day, but it does come with a very snug fitting screen protector, if u never took one off when you bought it chances are its still there.
have a pick around the buttons and see if you can lift a corner of the shield.
hope this helps

HD2 CarbonFiber/Kevlar Back Cover

After looking at all the sexy phones being released, I was getting jealous and it felt like my HD2 was losing its luster (The HD2 is still a sexy phone, don't get me wrong). I actually did this mod a long time ago but I switched the cover because I purchased an extended battery (Chinese!) and recently I just really missed the sexyness. And the cover draws attention away from the phone's slight blemishes( My f*cking eX knocked my phone on the the ground. It scratched my phone, cracked the camera lens and dented the camera casing >:[ )
Don't know if something like this was posted already, but anyway, here's to the best $265 I have ever spent!

I didn't have better camera at the time, so i had to use my sh*tty iPhone 3g. The image had so much noise, that i had to Photoshop it! So if it looks weird i apologize.
EDIT: THAT'S RIGHT! Totally forgot... I bought this carbon fiber vinyl sheet from ebay (3M makes better quality sheets but is more expensive). And basically it's a sticker and I just pasted it on to my back and cut the proper dimensions. I used a heat gun to make it stick more and it makes it easier to play with (it gets softer). I'm actually planning on dong this to all my future phones!
OK ......Ya it looks nice but what was the point of making the post if your not going to tell people what you did to make it? Is it just a carbon fiber sticker, did you actually make a true carbon fiber back cover,etc....Would be nice to know for others that might want the same look.
Why is this in themes and apps?

[Q] LG G2 D802 [Issue] Screen loose at bottom right

Hello
- Advice requested
I have had my G2 D802 bought in Europe, Sweden, for a couple of months now and right from the start I have been taking care of it;
Back and front screen protector applied (thin plastic one, great acctually)...
Now, in the end of January 2014, I yesterday noticed a thin ray of light coming from "inside" the screen and shining out between the touch sensitive display and the edges (bezel?) of the device.

These images are all focused on the thin light escaping from the side of the display.
It is a opening as thin as a single piece of hair.
- What would you recommend?
Please leave a comment or just vote in the embedded poll at the top.
The images are grainy, yes, but all show the light comming out.
Return, replace

Well, I flashed stock and got a service ticket for a warranty repair.
It took 35 minutes for them to give my device a new screen.
All is good. I'm happy.

Same has happened with mine a few months after purchase! Mine is a Carrier device so i think they will replace it ok. I hope this isn't an ongoing things with G2's!
Same here. Same place
Same here, can I glue it with an easy method?
Without disassembling the whole phone.

[Q] What is this inside the screen?

Just noticed that on the left hand corner of the screen is a small shiny patch. It is not a scratch on the outside of the screen. It appears to be between the screen and the glass. Pictures don't do it justice. It is very noticeable outside, because it is very shiny. My question is, what is it and can I fix it? It is visible whether the LCD is on or not. Doesn't look like anything has cracked, or seeped in. Wasn't there earlier...

Seems that the gorilla glas and your screen got off a little bit. Since they are glued together it could be the case. You must disassemble your device to know more
Looks like glue between digi and LCD had a failure. Is it a device you bought used?. If so whoever changed digi messed up on glue job. If its device you got new from google I would RMA......that is definitely a manufactures defect.

I bought almost new, nearly 1 year ago. Wasn't like that last week. Don't think I can RMA it to anyone. Guess if it gets worse I can replace the screen...
Thanks for the responses...
