am I missing something? Special prices for upgrading? I still see $129.99 for upgrades. Only new lines are .01.

Sprint offering early upgrade to ex-GOLD premier 'till end of year.

http://www.sprintfeed.com/2011/12/sprint-offering-early-upgrades-through-end-of-2011/
It doesn't mention GOLD only in the ad, but from the comments, it appears it only applies to those that were gold (not Sero).
Me? I'm holding off until LTE devices come around.
Here is another source:

I used my upgrade in July, I'm confused what all this means to me? Lol
I am with sprint for only 4 months and i am already a gold member. Do i get this upgrade or not?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
I just found this out myself at the sprint store. I was really pissed at loosing my annual upgrade but will be getting 2 new epic touches tonight!
I had an upgrade available on 1/1/12. Then they took it off. I been meaning to call and ***** about it.
Curious what someone on the epic touch would "upgrade" to. The only phone competitive is the fruit phone.

Ill be upgrading my daughters optimus s to the MoPho tomorrow. They got em at Walmart for $78.
I'm very upset they cancelled the premier program I just turned premier gold a couple months ago.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
how do you determine if your gold or not?
It's not necessarily gold premier, I have seen customers who were silver. Also it works for multiple lines on the account.
As far as I know, it is only available if you physically walk into a corporate store. I have verified that nss is not able to do it if there is an error in store.

Doesn't work just tried in corporate store in FL. No way no how the guy said.

That sucks. I just got a new E4Gt from craiglist for 400 bucks 1 week ago because I did not have an upgrade available until next year. I should've waited. Damn...

Waited for what it doesn't work. And where do you live they are selling then for 300 on Craigslist.

Dumb question ....
The ad says "target high value consumer/IL"
What is IL?
Since nobody's confirming ability to do it, could it mean Illinois customers only?
Don't flame, I seriously don't know what it means, lol.
Sent from my SGSIIE4GTuvwxyz....should I touch my nose or walk a straight line now?
I turned into a gold premier customer back in August (10 years)... I upgraded to my ET about one week after release. My account still shows that I am eligible for an upgrade on 9/1/2012.
My understanding is that after this next upgrade, I will then be on the 20 month schedule.

Does asurion still support us?

Hi, has anyone recently tried to file a claim for asurion? Do they still carry the e4gt?

Go to there web site and start a claim... Just don't submit it.
I get the feeling that there are still more than enough ET4g's in the system.
Don't think there going to start handing out GS3's or Gnex's anytime soon....

They do. They are even giving out the ET4g to evo3d customers that file claims.
Indeed, but I'd expect to start seeing the S3 be substituted around the end of the year.
Actually, more likely the Galaxy Nexus.
I think its a luck of the draw type of thing. Ill try it myself tonight.

Would sprint buy the epic 4g?

I just realized I qualified for an upgrade since april. I was thinking it was in augest.
Anyway, I wanna buy a new phone. I really don't want to sell my epic because I love it and I just want a new phone to keep on the side and not to actually use. So my number would stay on the epic and I would get a newer phone for my music and games and stuff. I don't think anyone would do this but I am lol I need my keyboard.
So I was thinking gs3 or epic touch.
But just incase I have to pay an amount of money that I don't have and I would have to give up my epic to get a newer phone would sprint buy this phone from me for a reasonable price? Like let's say $100?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
I think Sprint will give your around $30-35 dollars.
You will get much more if you sell it online or some such.
You can use your upgrade to get a new Phone, probably around $200, and just not activate it, and then you can keep using your Epic.
Thanks said, if your Epic is in working order, and has a clean ESN, I would give you $100 for it.

Ya I was thinking I may sell it online. And I also have an extra battery for it. Its the same as its stock one.
I'm going to go to the sprint store sometime soon and see what phones they have there and what they offer.
if I have to sell my phone to get a new one I may sell it for about $100. Ill let you know if you want it. And yes its in perfect condition I don't remember dropping it not even once and everything works.

The upgrade discount is only valid if it's activated on a renewed contract. No activation means no discount.

After you activate a new/upgrade account, that phone must remain active on that line for 6 months. (might be 3) This is why I use GVoice. I have 4 lines and me and wifey trade up renewals with 2 of the lines.

Sprint doesn't allow buy backs of any of their devices which have dirty ESNS. Corporate retail employees who do this sort of thing can and will be subjected to disciplinary action of up to and including termination of employment. I know this personally from seeing about half a dozen of employees in our DM's market promoted to customer. You have to remember people that Sprint has a report on just about anything you do in RMS and are able to drill down to employee ID level.
They wanted to give me $60 for mine when I upgraded, but I decided to keep it and try selling it for a little more private.

That's exactly why I don't wanna have to sell this phone I just love it lol.
But seriously if I get an upgrade I have to use that phone for the first 6 months??? I can't believe that cuz they can't just tie me to one phone. What if I bought another phone I'm not allowed to use that?
I was really wanting to buy the g23. But I think the epic touch wouldn't be bad either. And its 100 dollars cheaper. But its a shame that both the epic and the epic touch cost 100 with a new contract lol.

Warranty replacement

So I have a call with a sprint supervisor tomorrow about a replacement for my epic 4g touch because of a lot of problems, but I don't know what to tell the person so that I can get a new replacement phone.
I've been having problems with gps, data, my screen is changing colors and the buttons on the bottom of the screen stop working for like twenty seconds after I turn on my phone from sleep.

That's why you don't use sprints buyback. Craigslist or ebay or swappa are the best route, if you don't sign up for best buys buyback. Best buy does sliding scale based on age of device and current retail. The evo4g was getting $325 when the s3 came out at best buys buyback and 275 when the note 2 dropped.

Don't forget that he can also make between $100 to $200 in profit if he resells it. Can also be used as a test system for ROM's before he flashes to his daily driver. He can use it to dev with or learn how to dev.

If he (or she) is asking if it's worth buying, then the motivation for WHY the person's buying it is, indeed, reasonable to ask. Otherwise how can I give an informed answer?
Seriously, if the person merely started a thread and said, "I'm going to buy a second Epic 4G Touch," and I responded with my questions, the surprisingly rude responses to my question would be justified as it would, indeed, be none of my business. But when a person actually ASKS our advice on whether or not the purchase is worth it without a shred of supporting data, it's COMPLETELY acceptable to ask them why they want to buy it before I give my answer. Their motive WILL change the answer.
Just thought it would be good to have a spare.... lol.
Was possibly thinking of flashing it to boost or something.
If you don't buy it, I will.
