[POLL] How many of you have broken your N900 LCD display?
 
Hi, I severely cracked my N900 screen yesterday and was amazed how easily it broke and how the digitizer still works perfectly, so just out of curiosity, how many of you have actually broken your N900 LCD display?

By messing around lol, I think I fell on it or something but when I got it out of my pocket to take a photo I was horrified to see a crack in the corner and multi-coloured lines running down the screen, and after only 2 days of receiving it back from the insurance company after my last one got stolen a few months back :mad: oh well at least it looks easy enough to replace the screen :)

Just to clarify. You are not wanting people who have had digitizers or screens just quit for no known reason. You are looking for people who have known physical damage.

No, just any person who has broken their N900 screen/digitizer be it via self inflicted damage, manufacturing flaws etc. Hope this clarifies :)

Not exactly broken, but the coating is starting to scratch off my digitizer in places...

Not sure if this is what you want but have a look:-

and this forum might help:-

quote form this forum:-
B&Q, local hardware store, Asda, Homebase etc.. all only had the size 0 philips screwdrivers. I eventually looked in at the big Tesco's here and amazingly they had the same pack (from the same manufacturer) as Asda, but, with an added size 00 philips screwdriver that I was after. I think I'll just go straight to Tesco from now on.. they seem to have everything

or:-
"Halfords have a set of 6 flat and 6 phillips down to 0000 but they're £15 a set!"

or this:

from Maplins "Includes slotted: 2.0, 2.5, 3.0mm and PH000, PH00, PH0"

EDIT found these last week when I thought my screen had a problem! turned out it was me with the problem so didn't buy and therefore can't vouch...:D
