Hello,
Yesterday I dropped my phone (Samsung B3410) down the stairs and now, when I turn it on, a part of the top -touchscreen- remains white... But at the same time, when I touch the white area to select something, it works perfectly even though it doesn't display! I tried removing the SIM card and taking out the battery while it was on as my friends advised me, but nothing changes, it's still the same... Should I change the screen (knowing that it's still under warranty) or is there a way for the screen to return to normal?

    Hello, I'm not an expert, but in any case, it happened to a friend of mine on his Galaxy S2. I think it's the screen crystals that are dead, so the only solution is to change the screen. It worked for my friend.
    There you go.

    Enjoy the warranty then and go get yourself a brand new screen for free!!! ;) This isn't the kind of problem that can be repaired, it's hardware, so it's certainly a hardware component that has been affected!! Unless you're an electronics expert in phone repairs!!

    Yeah, so we might as well take it to the store right now without delay!! I advise against throwing it down the stairs hoping it will get fixed; that kind of thing only exists in fairy tales!!

    Moreover, given its condition, it would be absurd to damage it further!!

    Thank you for your responses =) From what you say, I feel like there aren't many solutions... Even though it bothers me, I will have to go change it >_<

    Hello,

    you can always try to make him fall down the stairs again, but I'm not sure it'll fix him
    for the warranty, you can always give it a shot, you’d have a better chance rather than making him fall again
    but I doubt they would agree to repair it for free since I’m not sure falls are covered under the warranty.
