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.

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...

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

The trick is, they'll send you the money. It'll say pending, and it MIGHT even clear.
As soon as you send the item and give them a tracking number, they'll do a "charge back" on the account and the money will disappear from your account. And PayPal's service is so ****ty. They'll always side with the buyer. (Probably BC that's the only way they can get a cut out of it.)
Surprised how many people DONT know about this scam. Don't get ripped man.

Could someone please post a picture of their NFC contacts on the phone....not the nubs an the battery cover. On mine the one on the bottom appears to be missing and looks different then the top one? Plus when I try to NFC file to SGSIII it doesnt work and I know nfc works on sIII. I need to get this resolved before my 14 days are up so I can get an exchange. Thanks in advance for any help yall can give!

That one is gonna be hard to convince them to replace ....good luck...if all else fails u can just order a new sim try assembly........ this might help u https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UT-2zrZ_aNo&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Excellent video there! Good stuff.
Well the phone call didn't go well they wanted me to let them charge my card $299 until they got my phone...didn't budge and manager so say got disconnected and was going to call right back. Called local corp store they said bring it in and they would replace it.
I brought it in and now my NFC works! Everything else seems fine as well so far!
Now 6 hrs later and manager still hadn't called back. I will call and make a formal complaint tomorrow. Heads are gonna roll!
I am less than my 14 day return so I could have just returmed it and then got a new one. Noy so sure whats so hard about sending a replacement for the defective one they sent me.

Yup it was. To be honest it looks like it was never soldered on if you look at it closely. I am pretty sure it was a manufacturing defect. I know 100% sure I didnt touch or break it. In fact I hardly ever took the back off except to add sd card. The only reason I checked the contacts was because NFC wasnt working.

Refer to your device, such as baby
I have been constantly having problems with sprint. I love the S2, but I never get reception, always losing signal. Slow to no data. (yes I called them to have the fix the problem but no help. Last week I was on hold for 6 hours, not exaggerating at all).
I called sprint again today, and they would not upgrade my phone. They said I bought it in Feb, and they would charge me $280 to break out of contract and $200 for the new note 2 phone. ($580, they are nutz...).
they wouldn't pass me onto retentions either. They hung up on me 4 times during my phone call. Stupid russion speaking dwarfs from yugoslavia or something...
So I canceled finally, and they didn't even do ANYTHING to try and keep me as a customer. I have been with them since 1999.
So... I will pay the break out fee of $280. But I feel it is a relief to get away from them. Sprint has gone down the toilet, and I am not going to be held hostage by them anymore.
So... Anyone have any suggestions on what to do now? Legal suggestions only please. I still have my S2, so if there was a way I can prepay activate it somewhere .....
OR what is the best bang for the buck wireless company now? I kind of wanted the new note 2 or I can wait for the nexus 4.
Thanks for letting me waste your time.....
I'd probably swallow any loss that you paid to Sprint and move onto T-Mobile if their coverage is nice in your area. $200 for a 2-year contract or buy outright from Google for $300-350, not bad. Just gotta wait since they're on back ordered.
Unfortunate that you experienced that type of customer service from Sprint. I've had nothing but great deals with them every time.
I was looking at Ting... I guess they have a beta program where you can bring your device from sprint. Pay as you go no contract. You get credited the following month for stuff you didn't use.
The epic touch 4g is one of the 5 devices currently supported by ting.
