Well, today I cracked the screen on my EVO 4G. I called the closest Sprint repair center and they say they don't replace them anymore and that I have to go through Asurion to replace the phone. I went ahead and made the claim through them so I'll get another phone probably Monday or Tuesday. I've read threads and posts from back in Feb/March/April saying they were replacing the EVO 4G's with EVO 3D's. Anyone know if this is still the case?
Not sure but Asurion should be able tell you. Did you have to pay a detectable?

Good to know. Thanks for the info.
When I replaced my wife's OG evo, they sent a 3d. When I replaced mine, I got an OG evo. So i guess it really is 50–50 lol
I read somewhere if you do the claim online that it'll tell you what they're going to send out before clicking submit but I have yet to try that way.

Well...I heard of some people actually messing up there EVOs and being given the EVO 3D in replacement....
But just last Tuesday I broke mine and I got my OG EVO in the mail last Thursday...I'm jus curious how and why didn't y'all jus ask for the EVO 4G?
Most just do an online claim through asurion so theres no one to talk to. And most see the e3d as an upgrade to og evo therefore not requesting an og but moving on to bigger and better places.

They definitely have refurb replacements in stock you're not getting a 3D lol. If they don't they will say the 4G is on back order and either make you wait or give you a loaner or something. You won't get a 3D that easy.

Actually your wrong they are giving them out that easy cuz for
1. They wanted to give me a 3D and all that happen was the infamous charge port.
2. My wife's Epic4G gave out they replaced it with the 3D.
3. Her mom went in and talked to a repair guy about her Epic4G over heating and they gave her a 3D as well.
So yeah they are replacing your smart phone for the 3D if you DONT ASK FOR IT!
Now you've got me wondering if I should trash my 4G just to get a 3D as a replacement.

Bad karma, if you break it on purpose you won't get a shiny new E3D, you will get a crappy refurb ...
I don't believe in karma, but I had to throw that up! LOL
Called in to check, after reading the thread. One of the EVO's on my plan is having issues. The CSR asked if I wanted the EVO4G or the 3D. So I guess it might also have to do with luck of the draw :/ .

It depends on what they have in stock. And its called insurance fraud if you mysteriously lose it to get the 3D
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
i know its fraud but i meant to say lost/broken in my original question. sorry for the misunderstanding.
i work in loss prevention and in one of the stops i was making my phone fell and cracked the screen, it was still usable so i just kept using it because i love my EVO. but lately the screens been acting up and its getting harder to type on it and answer phone calls and i read in that team nocturnal thread that asurion was offering evo 3d in replacement so i decided to just go ahead and file my claim for my broken phone (it was about time) and yea sure enough they are replacing the og evo with the 3d....so i got my answer. but thanks for the heads up evo4gnoob
I cracked my screen and the screen's gone black... It doesnt show any color any light nothing. I have no insurance and idk what to do lol. I went into the sprint store and they were no help they told me to buy an evo 4g lte or buy an iphone 4s. So i was hoping someone on the xda forums could help /: por favor lol. Is it possible to fix this or maybe resell?
Of course its possible to fix, but you gotta buy the parts. And of course you could resell it. If you won't fix it, somebody else will. If you do plan on selling it, I might be interested.

Go to a different repair center and ask for a one time courtesy replacement. Don't be pushy about it, if they say no, just leave.
If someone comes into my store with a cracked screen no TEP, nice to me, and generally upset, I'll replace it. Only once though, gotta learn your lesson.

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.

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.

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.
