Should i buy a new screen?

Im not sure if i should buy a new screen because im not 100% sure its the screen thats why i would like to know your feedbacks.

My phone has fallen a good 5 times before and worked fine.. 2 days ago i took it out of my pocket and my screen started blinking rred even though you could still see the aps. So i figured if i took out the batter and turned it on again it would be fixed so thats exactly what i did except the screen is blank white. My phone works fine... i can recieve calls, my touch screen works, and i still hear txts coming in. I assume its the screen should i buy one and replace it?

Re: Should i buy a new screen?

You can do a hard resest but here is the down low. You probably will only have Talk and Text. Internet is usually setup with a cab file or some registery changes.

You should be able to find Cricket cabs to setup MMS and Internet around so I'm guessing people have Metro cabs as well????

Good luck either way. =D>
