Not a chance. I'm not one to go crazy over a phone, but this thing is superb.

Hope you find one OP, I personally won't give mine up though.

Yeah the people putting this phone down just are trolling i love it.As for the photon you can get $350 if you hype it good on ebay minus fee's about $300 then you can pick a sgs2 up off ebay for about $100 more.
But you will never find a sucker i mean a person to trade you a sgs2 for a photon.

Good Luck finding one Bro.. It's going to be tough. This phone lives up to all the Hype and then some, based of the euro model..
Suck it up like I did and throw that cash down.. Its well worth it...

Sounds like you regret your purchase. If someone regrets buying their epic touch, they can just go return it.

Just pick up a cheap, old Sprint phone off eBay, switch service to it, sell the photon, then pick up the S2. This is an easy one, c'mon *lol*

Go to Sprint site pic up their referb sanyo flip for 50.00.
Activate it sell Photon take Sanyo to store trade up within 15 days pay the difference.

Or be a bulldog about things...
Take your oldest Sprint phone that isn't worth selling and swap phones on your line and sell the Photon *OR* trade it in at Sprint,....E3D got $135, Photon should get at least as much. That leaves only $65 left to pay for an ET4G. Then after activation call Sprint and get your contract rescinded (due to the admin fee change). Sure, they want to refuse it...but they will do it. They have to. Sure, t hey will assure you that the contract allows them to go up to $1.99, but, the contract also assures you that any material change to the contract lets you out for free...I'm pretty sure that trumps their card. Sure, you aren't a lawyer but neither are they...and you should make sure they know that you have more time to spend on the issue than they have to defend it. You will get out for free, I did.
Then you get yourself into a new line, port your old number to GoogleVoice and in 3 days you have a $65 ET4G, a new number *and* your old number on your new phone and a new contract with an even more insane ETF.
I did it today, you can too.

Hey bro I seen your post in that thread, I "canceled" my contract because of the administrative charge .. but they still won't met me buy a new phone with the two year price. Seems like you were in the same situation can you please explain how you did it

What should i ask for my gs2? Only had it a month or so and it's in perfect condition?

Depending on your area it could be anywhere from $350-$450. I would check eBay and Craigslist and go from there.
Good luck.

They sell like hot cakes here in houston.
I'm thinking of just buying one to flip. White NIB go for $450-500 here.

Well the thing with selling used merch, is it obviously has to be significantly lower than retail for the buyer to have incentive to take it. The phone retails for $530, so I would say around $400 is probably a good price to aim for. Considering that you've only had it a month and it's in perfect condition, I bet you can get something decent for it (depending on demand in your area). But if you get too close to retail, the buyer would just as soon fork over the extra 40 or 50 bucks to get it brand new (or at least I would).

southern california for 370-430

I bought one a few days ago for $280 off CL.

I'll try $400 ....thanks

Sell it on eBay or Craigslist. This is not the right section to sell phones on xda and selling bad esn phones is not allowed here.
That being said you could still probably get a decent amount for it on eBay as these can be flashed to different CD a carriers. I bought a bad esn epic 4g touch and added it to my virgin mobile account.

Or how about you get the esn and call sprint to find out.. if is good then you can still sell it on xda to a dev and not to some idiot on ebay/craigslist who wont use it to its full potential

If it has been reported stolen, then only asurion would know whose it was. and their records are a mess. If it is just lost, then a Service center could easily figure out whose phone it is using the ESN and the phone number (found using ##786#).
If it has a bad ESN, then sell it. (they gave up looking for it) If it has a Good ESN then return it (someone is probably looking for it.)

I think you will enjoy it this Google thing may actually catch on one day... Also the persons name and phone number are right there within the about section of the phone. The phone may be lost or stolen but I am quite sure they still kept their number. Just text or call them... Problem solved...
Oh if you cant figure out where to look try using Google and bask in all its glory

Yeah i convinced him to call sprint. I know sure as hell would have. And yes karma does repay. I found iphone 3gs a long time ago. I called the guy and told him i had it and i would take it to him because i had time off. I took it to his office and the guy took his contacts and said "thank you so much for being honest, you can have the phone." It was a great day. I'd rather return it and get a fk you than keep it. Either way its up to him and ima kick his ass for making me post and then change his mind lol.

Intentionally break phone

Has anybody intentionally destroyed their phone to get a refurbished one with little time left on their warranty? I want to know if there is a way I can successfully get a replacement from Sprint. My screen is in pretty rough shape, and based on what I've read, they won't replace it soley on a broken screen. (no digitizer damage) I know it's a bit underhanded, but I'm sure as hell not spending $270 on a screen replacement! Thanks in advance!

WTF? If you're worried about the condition of your phone, don't treat it like crap. Next time around, maybe think about a screen protector and a case instead of trying to scam your way to a new phone?

Lol, a screen protector and a case were the first things I bought for my S3. My phone has fallen twice since then and I have been SO glad I invested in the soft shell rubber case. No damage to the phone or screen whatsoever

The screen replacement is only like 178.50 with next day shipping there and back from samsung. And how are you almost out of warranty when the phone hasnt even been available for a year and you have a 1 year mfg warranty.

Sprint won't help you at all since it sounds like you don't have TEP(they don't help anyway). And Samsung only covers manufacture defects and hardware defects. If the phone has physical damage then your warranty is voided with them

Samsung repairs busted screens under warrant its just not free, but it is about half the cost it would be out of warranty. Its not a bad deal since they replace the entire glass/digitzer/lcd assembly and then reinstate your warranty afterwards:thumbup: and its next day shipping there and back so you're only without your device for 3-5 days max. Typical turn around is 3 days, day you ship, day they receive, day they ship back. However if they are backed up sometimes they have it in their possession for a couple days while they do the repairs

$200 is still cheaper then new phone.. Unless you find a good one on Craigslist with Clean ESN.. Screen protectors are a must! lol.. First thing that went on my phone.. have some scratches in protector, screen under is beautiful.

I'm an old iPhone user and I know with the iPhone if you cracked your screen, you could buy a replacement kit and spend no more than $50 bucks or so. Is there no replacement screens for the Galaxy S3?

There are, but the glass is fused to the display, making it extremely difficult to replace just the glass.

Assuming you have insurance it'd be $150 for the deductible. If you don't then that's you fault. Get a protective case next time.
Stop trying to look for a illegal way out.

Broken screens

So starting my car monday morning I destroyed my screen. Why? My original note took a massive beating and never had a problem! Fell out a second story window, kicked across pavement, fell out of a semi to pavement and I accidentally jumped on top of it after. Not a problem. Best phone ever! Note2 barely falls to snow and is now in shambles. I need to find a cheap replacement screen as soon as possible. Any solutions?

I hope I don't mess mine up.. Because then I know I'd be sitting there replacing it myself.

Yeap totally naked. I am going to do the replacement myself but refuse to pay $200 for a screen. I just bought my phone out right 30days ago. Never thought warranty was needed since my note was so rock solid

My wife cracked her screen last week. I had warranty. $199 deductible, since it's a high end phone.
I tried replacing my screen on my Atrix 2, massive fail, so I didn't even attempt on the Note 2.

glad it wasn't my phone.

I attemped to change my screen as well and failed miserably had to get replacement

Its really not that hard. The glass is not the digitizer (touch screen) and all you need is a heat gun, box cutter with the expandable blade and patience. Just heat and pry up just slightly and use constant heat so it comes off right away and not to long in one spot just enough to keep it warm where its bareable to hold in hand. I just did mine for the first time it was easier than an iphone.
Those YouTube videos make it look hectic. I mean if your gonna do a insurance claim might as well try. Screen cost around $18. Also you can add those 3rd party insurance company on now with a receipt within 30 days or make one if you dont have one. Square trade worked for my s2.
Good luck!

I would cry no joke, but I do have a case on my phone and also I take really good care of it, just like if it was my kid.

To me my phone is a disposable piece of tech. Sadly though, the cracked screen is annoying and a replacement piece of glass is cheaper then a whole new phone. I just wish this screen was as durable as my original note *sigh* kinda wish I didnt sell it a couple weeks sooner

I use Square Trade for insurance.. $99 for 2 years of coverage and a $99 deductible.
The only bummer with Square Trade is they dont cover lost or stolen.

So I guessing that Square is just for damages, and broken screens? That's pretty cool. Lost or stolen $4.99mo from AT&T!! Going to pass this on to a few of my friends that don't like cases. Which is stupid in my book, not to cover your phone. It will drop eventually!
