To my greatest sorrow, the LCD screen got cracked it was in its carry case on my belt, no outer sign of harm, nothing. I am just wondering would T-Mobile USA exchange it, under warranty? or should I try to get a screen from other source? or get a screen from an Orange SPV c550 and try to replace with it.

Hey guys I am desperate, please help me.

No way will they replace under warranty - maybe take out their insurance first though? ;-)

A c550 screen will work fine - it's the same part - and is the cheapest source of a screen, as a working c550 goes for about £60 - £70 in the UK and screens are £50 *if* you can get one. Then fit your broken screen to the c550 and sell it on eBay! Easy...

Hey Richard,

Thanks, I was thinking of doing the same. I needed someone to assure me that it is going to work. I hope it will work
