It is people like you who cause wireless companies to raise prices for customers. Like everyone else has already said: Where are your morals? Sure you pay for insurance so you feel entitled to use it, but your scamming only costs everyone else in the long run. Damn how I wish there were ways that things like this could be reported to Sprint. O well karma got the best of you in the end, because that "lost" phone is worthless in the end. Have a nice day and don't bother coming back to XDA posting about your cowardly actions because no one cares to hear about how you think you outsmarted Sprint.

well for starters theyre going to take that phone from you if its reported stolen and has insurance, and second once a phone has an esn assigned to thats it your best bet is to try another service provider, usually one of those prepay like cricket will flash phones not sure about the epic though.
Hmm why would you buy a stolen phone? Have sprint contact the owner and give it back to them for what you bought it for.

Hey guys I have found a Evo4g at work in pristine condition. Could I sell it or is it no good? I see that these Sprint phones don't take a sim card. So I wasnt sure if it would work unless it was purchased from store? Thanks guys!
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
I suggest you turn it in to your workplace's lost & found department. An EVO 4G is not a device that people will discard as trash. I'd like to believe someone is looking for it. If it's unlocked, peruse the contact list and make some calls to determine its owner.

You should turn that into someone, a supervisor...ect. SOMEONE is looking for that phone because...its a beautiful device. Mine got stolen [still don't know how] and I moved hell and high water for that thing. That person will really appreciate, and like dougjamal suggested, if unlocked, use the call log, make some calls to find out who's it is.

And let me tell you something about CDMA....
The phone is linked to the account through the ESN number... if he reports it lost/stolen, and you try to activate it, expect trouble.
Calm down... I found it over a week ago... I did turn it in to my supervisor and they called me up there and did paper work because no one claimed it. Alot of people in and out of plant traveling.... No contacts in it... What else to do?

Well...I guess hold onto it, and ask around for another week...
I would recommend leaving it with the supervisor/manager in the department you found it in, because it'd be most likely that person would turn to them to check. Also it keeps you out of liability if "something happened to the phone."
Yea your probably right. I would want my Glacier. Ima call sprint see if they knows who it is...

1. Pull the battery and find the ESN
2. CALL SPRINT tell them exactly what happened especially the policy for your company waiting a week for it's owner to return.
OPTION 2. CALL SPRINT and ask them if the ESN is clear. If it is your in the clear as well.

From the home screen, press menu > settings > about phone at the bottom > status, and it'll list the device phone number. Tell it to the sprint rep and they should be able to direct you to a person from there, also the MEID number if they ask for it.
I was wondering about this a few months ago when I moved over to Sprint. I signed up with the Shift and decided after it had shipped I didn't like the keyboard so I went to a store and swapped it. The guy accidentally put it in my bag still with my Evo box and I didn't see it until I got home. Being the nice person I am I returned it next business day on the "low", incase he might get in trouble, but I know for a split second I was wondering how much I could craigslist it for.
my galaxy s ii was stolen today at school and i was wondering if they will give me a new phone for free or will i have to pay full price again for a new one, I have insurance. Or can they like use the Satellite to track the phone down so they can give it back to me?
you will have to pay the deductible which is like $140 or something like that...
if you have the higher insurance it has remote tracking...i have never seen anyone go that route though and i would imagine the chances of recovering it are slim to none
If you call your number 69 times the phone will self combustion, causing severe 3rd degree Burns to the thief. Simply wait at the local ER and take the next burn victim to your local authorities.

the good thing about tracking through the tmobile insurance way is that they do it on their end right? its not reliant on an app that you downloaded...but i doubt that they will recover it though..its probably more if you left it somewhere, they could remind you of the area you were in or something
ive never used that method so im just guessing here

Well, I heard through XDA that some people have had luck getting their phones upgraded via their Airave line on their family account. The line must be upgrade-eligible (login to your account and see if there's a message on that line saying you're eligible for $150 off).
I don't know what the steps are, but I know there are some extra steps needed to get this done. Apparently it is a PITA, but it does work. I'd like to do this so I can can get a second GS3 for my mother as well (her EVO OG is just not holding up well).
I called the local Radio Shack and they said they didn't know about it. I just need someone to guide me to the right store to get it done.
So you want RadioShack employee to explain a Sprint service in depth? Good luck. Lol

Fraud? Exaggerating a bit don't you think? Do you think Sprint hasn't corrected this issue so they can test their customers ethics? It's been around for years now buddy. Many people have done so. I just learned that Best Buy can do it too.
Fraud is more accurately associated wih other things that is found in these forums; such as free Wifi tethering, PRL hacking, etc. Acivating your phone on an Airave line that is left open by Sprint is not fraud, it's a loophole.
Anyways, what happens after the phone is activated on that line? Can I just transfer the device to my number? I don't want to be stuck with the $19.99 additional line fee though.
Sent from my Samsung Epic 4G Touch.
Your best bet is to just walk into the radio shack and try it. See if they are willing to spend the time to try and get you that upgrade. I did it with mine but I honestly can't remember all the details. I know there are no charges. Make sure you write down all the numbers from your Airave and bring them with you. I think I remember them needing the numbers that are similar to the esn on a phone. Good luck!

If T-mobile did not tell me to send the phone back than I would NOT send it back.... It sounds to me like they already know he has the extra phone but don't care, so sell it to someone for parts or whatever they want to do with it..... If you want to keep it then you have no options with T-mobile but you can get it activated on Straight Talk or Simple Mobile cause they don't tend to care or even know if it's disabled by T-mobile... I am NOT promoting fraud but if you are being honest I am giving you an honest answer...

Be careful bro.. you may get a repackaging fee...
Yea to those who feel I'm being dishonest, please read the whole story and don't judge. I never asked for the second phone.

send first phone back, upon receipt of first phone, it will prove that you are legit. Sorry dude, but your story is really really hard to believe, you most likely will get a bill for that first one.

I actually think the person he sells the phone to will find out its blacklisted, regardless of what carrier its on. At that point the new owner will do one of two things; call the police, or show back up with friends and ensure they get their money back. You have one working note, and an extra one that should be sent back because thats the honest thing to do. Why do you think otherwise. Go troll some of the lesser sites, I dont believe xda is the proper place for you to try and learn how to reprogram an IMEI in order to circumvent t-mobile block on your phone, as its concidered stolen at this point.

If your story is true, I wouldn't send it back... t-mobiles mistake, not yours... if you want to throw it to a dev for dev use shoot me a pm (not for me, but a dev on gsIII that wants one to dev on)
