Sad, but probably true. Can't help you on the front housing, but you can buy back covers on eBay for cheap...in just about any color you want. Lol

Well if they come out with one...I hope its within 30 days of my purchase, so I can take advantage of that return/exchange policy

I'm in California, its law to have a 30 day return policy. Unless they post (in writing) at each entrance and cash register, while clearly explaining such after each purchase. Last time I went to Sprint....I didn't see any signs.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
Sprint has signs at the front of all corporate retail locations that state the return policy. Also the contract clearly states the return period and it is given verbally by the sales personnel at the time of purchase. Sprint is well aware of California laws but remember that authorized retailers such as best buy have a 30 day return policy that is only for the device itself. The contract expiration is 14 days no matter where you buy the device from and regardless of what you decide to do with the device itself. (keep it, sell it, return it for refund, throw it in the river, etc) So technically you can return the device after the 14 day contract period for a full refund but you will still be held in contract without the new device active on your line of service. So do all of your evaluations within the first 14 days no matter where you decide to buy your new phone. Just making this clear to some who find this a bit confusing.
Eventually it will

Depends, I guess. Has anyone heard of plans for any hardware revisions? Maybe later on there will be different colors for different editions. To me, this "pubic blew" looks close enough to charcoalish-black that I'm satisfied. I'm putting an ugly otterbox on it anyway.

Did they offer you an alternative phone? That happened with my hd2 and they sent me a g2x they told me the rep told me at the time "whatever that's worth" that in these cases they offer an upgraded phone I seen some one saying they were offering the one s but I think thats a down grade lol

I did the same thing. They told me to call back cause I didn't want the phone they was going to send me. Some htc crap. I was like how bout the gs3. They said we can't do that. I said you mean to tell me your completely out of stock of the phone I'm in now that I have to wait for a replacement and your wanting me to downgrade... I don't think so. There idiots !!!!

I'd recommend getting help from T-Mobile via their live chat service.
http://support.t-mobile.com/community/chat
More efficient than calling.
Been on the phone with tmobile for the whole week. They wont help out. They basically sent me another Note 2 for free without me even asking them and now im stuck. I want to get rid of it, but its still blocked. Got TWO Note 2s for FREE in the same week. But neither work because of the block and bad storms knocking out towers in my area. FRUSTRATED!!!!
That just doesnt sound right to me. Tmobile isnt in the business of sending out free note2 with blocked imei number
...what are you really trying to do?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2
Didnt ask for the other note, they sent it to me because they tech support guy simply said, "its a paperweight" Now I have an extra note that blocked by tmobile
Are you asking us to help you scam someone else? The guy was right, its a paperweight.

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...
"When you ASSUME you make an ass out of u and me" so let's not assume he is being fraudulent when he just asked a question...

ive been with T mobile for six years they never just sent me a phone and i was allowed to keep the other considering how much this one cost.. They were real anole about me sending back my vibrant a few years back and my sg3 a few months ago... this phone cost about as much as those two combined.. 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. Tmobile told me to keep it, quote "its basically a paperweight" they said that not me. Been on the phone with them all week long. They just want me to keep it, trash it, whatever I wanted to do to it.

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.

Definitely better than many galaxy nexus I'm on eco mode as well I'm getting about three hours of on screen time per charge. With it being this fast,I'm not complaining.
For what its worth of you look at the battery stats it looks like android os is killing alot of battery which is an ice cream sandwich bug. Dont know if it actually does kill as much as it states but. it could indicate something isnt allowing the phone to sleep properly. Hoping an os update will squeeze some more juicr outta this thing also hopng itll kill the overheating issue but well see

Sup people, Im Brian D, just got this phone Wednesday. Came from a HTC Evo4G that was way overdue for upgrade. I absolutely love this phone so far. As stated, the only thing that's not excellent, is the camera, which is decent...but far from awesome.
As far as speed, the phone seems like it knows what I'm gonna do before I even do it...it's so fast it's just crazy. I rooted on the first day, tweeked it a lil bit and did a quadrant test just out of curiosity and got this 7736...mind BLOWN! That is unreal, especially when the max I ever got outta my Evo was around 1200.
Also, my battery life has been excellent so far. Don't know what some of you guys are having issues with. On Eco-mode, and with moderate use aka not TRYING to burn my battery, here is where I am now...with battery left to spare. Overall, I'm loving this phone. It was between the Samsung GS3 and this phone for my upgrade and went with this because of future potential. I'm sure the bootloader will be unlocked soon...too many smart people out there are already trying to make it happen. And once it is unlocked...imagine the possibilities with this monsterous piece of hardware!!

Hey guys,
I am on the Sprint Employee plan (the wireless advantage club) and I want to get this phone and have an upgrade but it won't let me purchase. They say my account isn't allowed to get it yet. But I see that you guys are actual employees and have it. Did you buy it unlocked or something? Thanks.
I'm Tony from Ohio. I've been a lurker here for a few years now. This is only my second Android smartphone and I absolutely love it. Can't wait to see the bootloader unlocked and a big thanks to everyone working towards it!

To be honest that means somebody on your plan has an outstanding balance or balance that needs to be paid, I had prob 10 people at one point and no one paid there bills on time , some people didn't understand how the program worked and way over spent it was just a nightmare, so now its me and the wife that's it. I got mine through my outside account and then swapped it on to my line NP as I wasn't able to upgrade but it says it is available through swac accounts. Did the person that your under order it for you or send you the swac link to shop or are you just trying to upgrade on sprint.com ?

Hm, well I do have an outstanding balance for my monthly bill due on the 27th that I was going to pay this weekend. I found out today that the Employee I'm under has to order it for me so he's going to check soon. I have an upgrade, so if I pay my bill will he be able to order it for me? Some people say employees can't get it yet.
My whole story: Ordered HTC Evo 4G LTE on Nov 2. Got it a week after (hit by Sandy :/). Sense is slow and buggy and I love the hardware, hating the software. But since I still was in 14 days and I really really wanted this phone, decided to cancel. Waiting for my return kit for this phone but I need a phone to hold me over when that comes since no one would let me order the Optimus G. So basically, I have the EVO now, and I'm waiting till the G is available. I'll be returning this EVO by Thanksgiving so I really wanted the G by then. If not, I may be phoneless for a couple days since I have no previous Sprint phone as this is my first time with them. Ah well.
I appreciate the insight.
Yea even tho its a lil cheaper advantage lines become a pain in the butt , its easier and almost as cheap to just send friends a link to the referral program

So, my power button has decided to act up and when I touch it, it brings up the extended menu, and no matter what I do from there it restarts the phone. So I took it to my local sprint store, and the guy told me to take the peice that actually pushes the button off and clean it myself. Offered no help, or how to do it or anything. Well needless to say I tried, and now it's completely stuck. Do you think I could get it fixed or a replacement for free because of that or no?

OUCH! Good luck with that one. At least call them constantly telling them service sucks or something. I did that for like 3 weeks straight. Finally just told them they aren't holding up to their end of the bargain. They removed all kinds of towers in my area to make room for the "upgrade" but don't plan on starting until 2015. Asked them to cancel and waive my etf. Gave me $30 off per month until contact is up. Forced roaming on vzw and things are OK that way. Basically waiting to either get kicked, or contract end, whichever is first.
