[Galaxy S II General] imlgl:
So yesterday I had my phone in my pocket all day. During that time I was doing work underneath a truck. Phone was 100% fine after I had finished. Sat down and checked my messages etc. Then I went out and once I got home and took my phone out it had a crack which spans the earpiece grill to around the middle left side of the screen.

I Found this very strange as it had no force exerted on it and is fully protected with a case-mate tough case. The crack is very very fine. I would say it is hairline. So it's obvious it hasn't been caused by any fall damage.

Just wondering if anyone has had any similar experience where they go to get their phone and notice a mysterious crack has appeared. I have also emailed Samsung which they replied saying they will asses it and see if the glass is defective. But I don't know how they would know if it was defective.
[Galaxy S II General] theobabis:
I'm also using tough case and once i removed it, after a long time, found that a lot of dust was accumulated between the glass and volume buttons. I don't know if that tiny gap existed or was created by the dust and i wonder if something similar could provoke it in your case.
[Galaxy S II General] imlgl:
I always clean under my case. Where the case goes over the screen edge. I usually wipe out the dust daily so it stays clean. There is no impact marks to suggest anything has hit it.
[Galaxy S II General] slitch:
almost the exact same thing happened to my friends SGS2!

He´s always very cautious with his phone but one day he took it out of his pocket en de screen was cracked from around the home button to the volume keys.

Very strange
[Galaxy S II General] Pedal_Bike_Pete:
Fyi, Samsung don't use gorilla glass on there phones, they use there own stuff. :-)
[Galaxy S II General] imlgl:
Well I sent Samsung an email about this and got a reply yesterday. This is what they said:

I’m sorry you are experiencing problems with your device due to the cracked screen. I can understand your frustration about this.

If you provide the details below your device can be assessed by our team of engineers at our main service centre to see if there is a manufacturer defect with the glass.

If there is no fault with the glass then the service centre will quote you a price to fix the phone.
[General Topics] itsbeertimenow:
So I sent google play an email stating that an app I already paid for (3g watchdog) is showing up as unpaid, gave them my order receipt and they asked for more information so I sent them this.

Allright, I flash New roms to my phone all the time. Normally I just re download all my apps as I switch between gingerbread and ice cream sandwich so I can't use titanium backup. So I flashed a new Rom (ics os) and the app appeared as bought, I clicked download and the market updated to play store during that and the download froze. So I force stopped it and brought up play store again. This time the app appeared as purchase 2.99 . I thought it was the os I was using so I formatted and flashed a gb Rom. Went to download again this time it sai purchase so I went about agreeing to purchase it again to see if it was just a glitch or something. It didn't work it went about charging me but my cc is maxed so I didn't get charged. I contacted the 3g watchdog dev and he said he could refund me just to let him know as he said he found a valid payment record. I can't get refunded because my cc is maxed and I wouldn't be able to purchase it again as payment would not be available which is why I need your help.

The following response came after a week of me sending emails requesting a response.

Thanks for following up and for providing those additional details about the issue you're experiencing on Google Play. In reviewing the information you've provided as well as our records, it appears that this issue is related to the fact that you're not using the authorized ROM that came with your device.

Using any ROM besides the factory default may cause the device to have limited functionality and may cause unexpected behavior with the Google Play Store app. Unfortunately, we won't be able to troubleshoot this issue further because the issue appears to be unique to the way your device is configured, and we can't recreate the issue with our devices here.

To resolve the issue, I recommend using the authorized Android operating system provided by your manufacturer that can be obtained from their website or your carrier.

Regards,

Matt The Google Play Support Team

Seems like google play is jerking me around an awful lot for 2.99. What shall I say to these jerkoffs?
[General Topics] MR4Y:
My main gripe with Google Play:

It should remove apps where the developers offer no support for it. Think about all the camera apps and stuff that that that have corks and errors that make them not work on said devices.
[General Topics] itsbeertimenow:
Conversing back and forth with them makes me feel like they want me to go f*** myself. I could see how they don't care if you buy a crap app with no support as its an outright money grab with Google's commission.
[General Topics] MissionImprobable:
I'm not sure where you're having problems simply using Titanium. I switch back and fourth between GB and ICS and use TiBu to batch restore my apps with data and haven't had any problems.
[General Topics] EmanSan:
You're right. Titanium Backup is a useful application. Must have application for rooted phone.
[General Topics] TJBunch1228:
Just sync up a valid, active debit or credit card to your google account and let the dev refund the money so you can repurchase it. You told google that you tweaked your software and now they have an excuse not to help you out.

Its strange though, because it should work as the powermat puts out 5V 1A which I believe is what the phone needs to charge up properly.

I recent bought a Arc S from someone on kijiji (according to him, this phone is locked to Canada rogers), and when I started the phone, it shows the Rogers logo as well.

the problem is, this phone does not work with rogers sim card, it displays

“This sim card cannot register with this network”, if I insert others like bell or telus, it will request a unlock code.

first, I went to rogers store, they found out this phone warrenty expires at June 28th of 2013, which is wierd, then they told me they could not fix it because I didnt buy it from rogers store.

So I bought one unlock code from "cellunlocker.net" and trying to use it on another network, however it failed again, told me code is wrong!

I have contacted with "cellunlocker.net" about this, they insist this is right code and can not do anything about it

what can I do now?

can anyone give me an advice before I throw it away or sell it as defect phone?

thanx

Everything was fine, flashed Gapps also.

The only thing is my wi-fi isn't working.

It can't even connect. It's like refreshing by 3 secs and doing that in a circle.

- Reflashed my radio (the newest version anyway).

- Flashed 19.25 radio with CWM 2.5.0.7 still nothing.

- Android 2.3.7

- CyanogenMod-7.1.0.1

- Radio 3.35.19.25
