My lcd screen cracked so in other words i need a new lcd screen. Was wondering does it matter which one i get and if so how can i find out without opening it. Keep in mind the screen is not visible

Got my EVO at launch date, cracked my screen. Ordered a LCD from ebay not knowing that there are different screen types, it had "...-02" on the back of it and the connectors were different..

IMO All evo screens look horrible next to the galaxy s series

I made the mistake of putting mine next to a test phone at work and Im soooo sad I wish i could take the galaxy s screen and put it on my evo

I got to play with the Epic at work that a Sprint rep had. Wasn't impressed. The screen was...I must say...awsome, but not a deal breaker for me. It lagged on apps just like the evo. It stuttered, skipped, and hiccupped in areas just like the evo. The Rep said it got just a little better batt life, but nothing incredible over his evo. I guess I was expecting more out of it but I wouldn't trade the evo for it.

what a lucky sprint rep. most of them have been told the cant have one on their plans until demand had settled down. (like when the evo came out)
