Managed to drop my phone over the weekend and have the bloody thing get run over by a car.. Somehow it still turns on and the metal frame itself doesn't seem overly damaged so going to try and replace the screen on the thing and hop for the best. Sucks because of the 2FA and utility it provided but alas I'm a dumbass.
Kinda hard to see, but those little lines are the output and the phone does power cycle so I'm really hoping that I can spend $40 and get a screen replacement sent to me and do the transplant myself.
Was trying to post atleast once a day but after this incident been in depression mode.. But had to get up and do stuff today as even laying down is excruciating at this point.

40$ for a new screen? Chinesium?
I once tried to do a Samsung S9 front screen glass replacement. Ended up killing the display, lol.
Thought about buying a screen replacement for my old S10 from China, but gave up as it's impossible to verify the quality of the screens. Ended up just buying a newer S22.
Good luck with the replacement.
I'm assuming it's chinese.. But it's a province over so will ship in < a week compared to spending $18 to get one from china in... 3 months?
Never tried a screen replacement before so kind of excited.
The phone itself was like maybe $150 or something? Honestly think the main board is fine.. But the screen well... lmao
I always hope I can someday get my data off the phones I brick. I have a carton of bricks that used to be phones. Hoarding is either my superpower or my Achilles' heel.
