I dropped it numerous times and today it broken completely in half. When I used to drop it, it got separated, but not totally disconnected. Now it is and i put it together, but it seem to not work. There a paper wire, but connecting the 2 halves, but it's completely separate now. What should I do? I need to make an appointment.

It also why out of battery today and I didn't recharge it, so it was basically in a coma and I think I killed it now with the last slash on the neck.

Should I keep putting it together and separating them repeated to see if it works if I make some kind of connect between the 2?

Its gone up to cellphone heaven. If you didn't have insurance coverage on it (some service providers offer Loss/damage insurance for another $5 or so a month surcharge on your cellphone bill), and you can't afford to get a new one from your service provider, you can try getting a used one on Ebay. If you look in Craigslist.org, you might find someone selling their old cellphone because their 2-year contract is up and they want to switch to another service provider. When you do a search, say you were on Verizon; enter "Verizon cellphone" on search to see what comes up. You can also call the service provider agents in your area and find someone who sells used and refurbished cellphones.

Buy a new cell phone.... I assume you have a contract with one of the major carriers, if so, they are almost always willing to give you a free phone (last year's model) just to keep the contract going.



These cell phones are not designed to be fixed.

I don't think it's worth saving, neither is it possible. The paper wire you're talking about might be unsavable once it's torn.

Go to your cell phone company and ask for help. If they dont, your only options is to buy a new one. Sorry.

you should celebrate



a release from the device welded to your ear

(that also deprives you of a lot of money)
