Mine broke yesterday after dropping it. I have the 1 year screen replacement cover for £10. I have unlocked the bootloader and installed twrp. Do you think I can just send it back as it is for them to replace it or should I lock the bootloader and remove twrp?

I cracked my screen when I went to a National Park on this side of the world. Luckily one of my friends was able to get a hand on the Swift and Storm screens and accessories. So not only do I have the Screen Fix but now I got both Red and Black Swift cases.

Thanks for the reply.

Just in case anyone else is reading this and has the same question. I restored my phone to a backup that I made the day I received the phone, replaced TWRP with Cyanogen recovery and then locked the boot loader.

The returns process was very quick, I sent it on Thursday and received the repaired phone on Wednesday. It has been restored to factory settings.

I got a little crack on my screen and the touch on that section is gone (plus its stuck in bootloop now and can't get it into recovery). And so far I am not finding any support or people to fix or even just get the parts.

My Storm screen is also broken, but I can't return it for a replacement. Does anyone have an idea where I can get a replacement LCD + Digitizer that I can fit myself?
Thanks
