Amazing! But a 15ft drop on concrete, I think it would've caused more damage than that.

i remember about eight years back i had my hands full and missed a joist in an attic. my foot took the whole sheet a drywall down, and everything in my hands (including my phone) fell about 18 feet onto an unfinished concrete floor below. at first the phone worked fine, but by that night (as my knee, which just so happened to NOT miss the previously-mentioned joist, began to grow sore) the phone started fritzing. by the next morning, everything on screen was backwards. mirrors came in very handy after that. im trying to remember what phone it was, but all i remember was that it was a nextel. and those phones were built for toughness.
to know that your droid dropped 15 ft and survived is good news, not that i plan on stepping through another ceiling or anything.
Current Phone: Galaxy Nexus; running smooth and with no complaints, thanks to dev Peter Alfonso. Keep up the good work.
Previous Phone: Droid (OG); unceremoniously dumped into the nightstand (I feel as if I should place it onto a wooden barge, set it afloat and light her on fire...).
Phone Before That: Doesn't matter.
Nice! There's no way they could've noticed the bend unless they were looking for it.
What a bizarre symptom to have after a big drop, but what a happy ending, that is the best part. Glad you didn't have to shell out big bucks for a cell phone repair.
in Maryland and Washington DC, cell phone repair is taking off. It's amazing the number of smartphones with touch screens that get dropped and crack.
