Hey guys, I got some questions.. Someone told me that for 90$ HTC would replace my Slide & give me a new one. The questions are:
will they replace it anywhere in the world?
will they replace it even if I lost the original accesories?
will they replace it even if it's not in good conditions?
where do I gotta ask for the replacement phone?

HTC or even T-Mobile will replace free if its still under warranty. If not then maybe you have to pay to get it replaced/fixed. As far as condition... Is the screen messed up? Scratches don't matter. If its scratched up then they'll still replace it. But if its cracked then that's on you.

Thanks for answering.. The screen isn't cracked, OH but the screen is kinda separated from the keyboard (can still perfectly slide, everything works, but it has a gap between the top middle and the bottom middle), another problem's that I live in Paraguay (south americ, no T-mo or official HTC stores here, I bought this phone on a trip to the US).. How can I contact HTC and find out more about a replacement phone? And how do I know if it still has warranty?:/.. OH, and will they replace it even if I don't have the original accessories?

I think warranty is like 6 months. you have to call T-Mobile. They will give you a new phone. It doesn't matter if you have accessories or not because they will trade just the phone itself. No battery, battery cover or accessories. the just want the phone.

Ok, my phone was working fine, but just now the phone screen turned blaack, ive rebooted it, replaced the battery, slid it open, charged it, NOTHING WORKS!, i NEED it tomorow, is there ANY way to fix FAST!? HELP!
Your flex cable ribbon that connects mainboard and screen is broken/ripped.
Replacement cable cost $60 and you must order at least two of those. Then obiously replace it. Tho it's out of stock now.
Tough love, hate sliders now.

I broke my first G2 after 6 months of use. Its rooted and everything and while it looks almost new with no physical defects the problem is that the screen won't display any color - just all pitch black backlight. So I called t-mobile and they are sending me a brand new g2 while I send my broken one to HTC for repair. Anyone been in the same situation as me? It's not like they would reprimand my new phone if they see that I rooted the broken G2

Sent from my HTC Desire Z using XDA Premium App
i broke the screen on my Desire z a while back and had to send it to HTC while it was rooted cause i couldnt do a factory reset on it without the screen being on... they fixed it and sent it right back to me with no issues...
my understanding is that the very first thing they do is do a factory reset on the phone just in case the issue is software related...
so as long as u didnt go S-OFF i think you will be fine... make sure to let us know wt happens once u find out...
3 month bump: T-mobile didn't find out anything so I'm good, got a brand new rooted phone. S-off and everything; the screen just didn't work. I wonder what the person who fixed it was thinking....
so, i unrooted my wifes g2 for warranty replacing, then a week later my phone starts randomly rebooting also. So i called in to tmobile to get it replaced, they say they are out of stock on the g2, but that i can get a hd7, mt4, or a titanium g2 instead. Does anyone have any idea what the titanium g2 looks like?
What in the world they talking about, listen there's only one G2 color, so just tell them yes yu want the titanium, its the same one yu had before and the one I have lol, these reps don't know what they are talking about.

lmao, thats what i thought. I even asked if it is on the site, she said no its not. I asked her to describe it, she said its the exact same but darker. But i guess i will find out when i receive it.

Well see when I googled "htc evo speaker went out" just to see what other users have bought or what they have did to fix it that way I don't end up buying the wrong thing loll but I couldn't find any links to the speakers so I figured I would ask here to see if anyone knew the best place to buy them. Thanks though,I will report back

You should have googled "htc evo replacement speaker", not "went out", that doesnt make any sense, where did it go out to?

Try googlin something that way. For instance "I hate the droid x" (<<lol) and it will pull up results with threads of people stating that. I was trying to find threads where people's speakers "went out" (messed up) to see if anyone pointed them towards a good reliable place to get a replacement speaker and too see if anyone could confirm the realibility of that place selling the speaker. That is why I googled it that way

I just ordered one for a friend of mine's Evo last week on eBay. It cost me $4 including shipping from a US seller and it arrived at my house in a few days.
The Hero uses the same speaker.... This might make it easier to find. You could always go to your local Sprint store and have it replaced for free. (Since you have TEP right?)

If it is a warranty replacement then I personally have never had to pay anything including shipping (standard) if it is a claim for assurian then I believe the cost is 130.00.

Yes they certainly do. But if it's still has factory warranty, (which I highly doubt by now) then you can just go through HTC for replacement. I'm not sure but you can try.
Ohh u guys are all talking about replacement by htc?? I thought this was that ~$5 a month insurance plan that tmobile offers if u break ur phone or if it's stolen. Also engadget had an article saying that tmobile was once again selling the g2 so I'm sure they have a bunch of new inventory that they would give as replacements
If you go through tmobile it is a $5 replacement. What I can't figure out, a month ago I was having battery problems, and they gave me the option for a replacement g2, or a mytouch 4g slide.
I took the slide, and I love the phone itself, its way faster and sleeker than the g2, but not being able to s-off and lack of development has me coming back to the g2. Also I'm not a sense fan at all, and due to the lack of devs, they don't have a stable cm7 aosp..
Today, no kidding, my wifes phone took and dump and won't charge either. We called tmobile up, and they weren't offering another phone as a replacement. Just a g2. So she is getting her replacement g2 Tuesday, and I'm going to switch phones with her miss my g2 and can't wait to root the new one and load up some roms and be able to change radios again!!
If you decide to use the $5/mth insurance way, they also charge you an additional 130 on top of having to pay the 5 bux a mth which I think is a rip off.

Yup keyword though is with contract so that's not full price...
I never pay full price I think that's useless especially since I keep a phone for a while it'll be two yrs this fall and I might just get the one s or g4x if the rumor is true but only if the g3 doesn't come. By fall the one series will probably be less than 200 because there's always a sale during the winter holidays
