Why is the Droid Ultras Glass Screen so then that it cracks so easly

I received the Droid Ultra on April 4 and had it for 6 days and really enjoyed the phone.One of the saleing point was because we have had the Droid 2 for over 4 years and its a tough phone. I bent over and the Ultra fell from my pocket no more than a foot or so and the screen cracked the Droid 2 has been dropped many times and never a problem the Ultra has a week screen, We were advised that we had 30 day to purchase the optional insurance so we thought the current warranty would cover any problems we may have but that we were told that's not the case. Now we are stuck in a 2 year contract and a phone with a bad screen. This would be a great phone if you would make the glass stronger.
What are my options for this phone the repair cost as much as the phone. I'm sure you will have a recall on the week screen.

Is what you see in Library the original, camera-embedded preview or is it just a messed up version of the LR-rendering?  You can test this by making a significant change to an image with the problem (Exposure -4 or Saturation +100) and see if the Library Preview also darkens (or the colors saturate) significantly or not.  You might also try explicitly telling LR to recompute the  Standard then the 1:1 preview to see if either of those show up in Library.
If the Library view never shows any LR adjustments and is always the camera-embedded JPG preview or a LR-preview from some days ago that never changes no matter what you do in Develop, now, then your Previews cache is likely corrupted and the entire should probably be deleted so LR can rebuild them.  The previews folder is called catalogname Previews.lrdata and is a subfolder of where your catalog file (.lrcat) is stored.  You can location your catalog by going to the General tab in the Catalog Preferences and clicking the Locate button.  You should exit LR before trying to delete the Previews subfolder and make sure you’re not deleting the catalog or backups folder, just the folder with Previews.lrdata in the name.
If the Library view just shows a different-looking version of the LR adjustments then perhaps something is wrong with the display-driver or the monitor’s color profile.

  • Why is the Boot Disc Selection screen always appearing?

    WIth a bootcamp partition on an iMac booting while holding down the Option key will cause the boot disk selection screen to appear, but suddenly I'm getting the boot disk selection screen even WITHOUT holding down the Option key. Why?

    Well it might take a little longer since POST (power-on self test) needs to check more memory.
    But try doing a smc and pram reset and see if that helps.

  • Why do my DROID ULTRA keeps freezing up and resetting when i use Navigation

    I just got a DROID ULTRA and it keeps freezing up when i open APPS and resetting when i try use navigation do anyone else have this problem.

        I'm here to help wake that device up bigdogg2! When did this first start? Any new apps or features added recently? Is it specific to certain apps? My first recommendation would be to clear the cache on the apps themselves. http://vz.to/1jwkj2c

  • After restoring my ipod touch multiple times it still goes to the connect to itunes screen, freezes then goes to a white screen

    Ok so i have restored my iPod touch multiple times the restore is "successful" my iPod touch 2g goes to the connect to iTunes screen then it just freezes. After about one minute it goes to a white screen until it dies. Any ideas?

    If it does it after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod then yo have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My iPod Touch shows the Apple logo splash screen and then turns off.

    When I turn my iPod Touch on, the Apple logo is shown and then it turns off. After a few seconds, it shows up again. It continues to do this non-stop. Is there anything I can do? Any help would be greatly Appriciated

    Let the battery fully drain. It may take awhile. After charging for at least an hour. If the iPod does not cycle on and off any more try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    Otherwise it appears you have a hardware problem and an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Does anyone have an issue with the screen fading in and out on the droid ultra?

    When I enter my pass code for voice mail it fades in and out and makes it difficult to enter the passcode.

        jdufresne72, let's bring light to this situation. Try adjusting the display light settings on your phone. Tap Settings>Display>Sleep>tap desired time for screen back light. Keep us posted and let us know if this resolves your issue.

  • Why is the droid iprint app not available for my HTC Hero marketplace?

    I can see the iprint app from the driod market place website, however when I search the marketplace from my phone it is not found. I cannot download it from the android website as my device is not found (I have already contacted the android tech support to resolve this issue)
    I connet to the internet through my droid phone via easy teather, which the printer cannot seem to use through a wireless network connection.
    Why the hell, did hp not enable internet acces through a **bleep** usb cable??!!!

    Hey cowham!
    The iPrint app is no longer on the marketplace but is very soon to be replaced with a much better app. You can find more information about this here. As far as being able to access the internet through a usb connection, as I understand it the printer uses the usb connection's full bandwidth already so it would not be able to print/scan if we gave it the ability to transmit the internet connection.
    Hope this helps!
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • Is there a choice of keyboard style/color on the Droid Ultra?

    Previous droid had several keyboards to choose from.

    Thanks for your reply.  I was considering looking for an app with keyboard choices, but I did that on a previous android phone and experienced just the issues you mention and ended up going back to what was available on the phone.  After some time and updates, additional keyboards were available without an app & I found the one I described above.  With this Ultra having so many new features and capabilities than my previous phones, I figured (hoped) there were more keyboards there someplace that I just couldn't find.  I guess 'llI stay with this one for a while & see if I can get used to it before going the app route.  In the meantime, maybe Google will come up with choices.  Or someone will recommend an app they have tried on the Ultra with no issues.

  • Why does the Reader automatically switch screens in a two(2) display setup?

    Reader keeps switching between my two display setup. I had this problem pop up about two months ago and finally installed version 11. The problem went away but about two weeks ago, Reader automatically switched back to displaying the pdfs on the second monitor. Anyone have any clues why this happens?

  • Why is the new IOS 7 screen making me feel like throwing up?

    The screen looks like it is floating on water somehow its making me want to puke. I go boating every weekend and I never get sick but this one managed to make me feel sick.
    Is there a way to change the screen??
    Thanks,
    Lynn

    You can select a different wallpaper and even turn off the dynamic motion.  If you google a bit, you can even find the wallpapers from iOS 6. 
    Use the iPhone.  All the answers are in your hand.

  • Why doe the blacks on my screen look so dark?

    I have an early 2009 Macbook Pro 17" glossy unibody. When I watch Lost on it, the darker parts of any given scen seem to just crap out, the screen in those areas looks like it's turned off. And it seems that even dim parts are just gone. The rest of the screen looks normal, and non-video looks normal.
    When I watch the same file on my ipad, those same dark areas show content, dark, but I can see detail.
    Its' as if the LCD screen on the macbook pro simply can't handle a certain level of black. Does anyone have insight into this? Is this common and normal or should I be taking a trip to the genius bar.
    Keep in mind, the screen does not feel damaged or anyting, it's just for movies and videos downloaded from itunes, the darker areas, just go completely black... it's really anoying. I try adjusting the tilt on the screen and the brightness. I even made new profiles in the monitors control panel, but no luck.
    Thanks!
    Ethan-

    When you made a new color profile, did you try a different gamma setting? Try 1.8 instead of 2.2. Or something in between. See if that helps.

  • Why are the images on my screen in InDesign so crisp/clear and when I export to PDF to print they are blurry?

    Top Picture is while the program, bottom is when exported as a PDF

    Hi Kathdepew,
    You are checking the PDF in Preview, please look it at Adobe Reader/Acrobat. Preview is not a recommended soft-proofing application.
    Also, check you PDF export settings, it seems the images are being down-sampled. To know better, export the PDF with "High quality presets" and then check.
