thanks man how did you swap it out did they ask you what happened to it or why you needed to swap it i figured it would void the warranty and they wouldnt let you swap it
Stock tar isn't yet available. Sucks.
You guys are way too paranoid when dealing with sprint stores. It's not their main goal to void your warranty. You act like you have a neon sign above your head flashing "I'M ROOTED!" lol

Howd your return experience go? Did you talk em into letting you keep the battery like I did? :victory:

It was pretty easy to return just had two go to a different sprint store to get the phone. I went to the store at the main campus in overland park. I like the white one it looks ok and no I wish I would have thought about asking for the battery I was just excited to be getting one that worked i didn't think about it. Would be nice to have an extra one. But when the lady was activating my new phone she asked if I had the charger, headset and box and everything and I don't have it she said don't worry about it so I got 2 chargers and 2 headsets now lol. Also yea that sucks the stock image is out now
Lol just saw that lame o well got extra stuff out of it and I really like the chargers they have longer cords than most of my other chargers.
Yeah, it would be nice to have extra charger. Ive been looking online and nothing. Sometimes I go spend the night at my moms or we go out of town and its nice to bring an extra one with without having to grab my own.

Ok I know some of you are probably wondering what type of question is this lol.. Last night I had a few drinks and dropped my phone, now I have a cracked screen at the bottom right of the phone. Called my friend (works at sprint) he said he can't swap it out just because of the screen but told me if I brick it he can swap it out, all I have to do is blame the new ota update when I come in so his manager gives the approval. So what's the fastest way to get a BLOD? Would removing the wire while running a sfhub OC do it?? I just can't live with a cracked screen ima go crazy!!!

He said he can give me a discount on a gs3 but I'm not sure I want to make the jump. I love the phone but to leave Wimax when I have full coverage for an LTE device that probably won't see LTE for a year or two sounds dumb.. Think I'll just stick with another gs2!

Someone is jealous they don't have a hook up at Sprint I see.. You'll get over it! And it's *your mistake* Not you're! You're = You are :thumbdown:
"Hook up" at sprint is not equal to the "right" thing to do... I don't think he was jealous as much as he was pointing out what you are attempting to do could be considered/is fraud... I'm not passing judgment on you but perhaps if you're accident prone you may want to consider adding insurance to the line, which is the route many of us around here take... additionally no one is forcing you to live with a broken screen, replacements can be found on eBay for reasonable prices and to change it it's just 9 Phillips head screws and 3 cables to unplug/ replug... not super hard to do... lastly I hope I didn't accidentally mispell anything in this reply as I wouldn't want to feel the wrath of the grammer nazi fraudster...

Yes, I'm jealous because you lack the intelligence to figure out something so trivial, I'm also jealous because "YOUS" to broke to pay to have a screen fixed. Also....I'm jealous that you have a friend that works for sprint, actually extremely jealous. I only have a brother and two close friends that work for sprint.
How does one go about getting only one friend that works for sprint and then begin to radiate this sprint branded swag that clearly creates uncontrollable amounts of jealousy because of said friend?

I think some one needs to calm down. I don't have any friends at sprint...any more. I use to work for them but not as a phone tech but cell tower maintenance. The guy is looking to get hooked up. Good for him. I don't agree with it but to each their own.

"YOUR" absolutely right. Myself and others don't mind the cost of insurance going up because of false claims.
That's the problem with this world instead of holding people accountable for their actions, their stupidity is excused with acts such as these (eg. Ins cost goes up). Same concept as welfare. How many of us are ecstatic that our stolen tax dollars go to funding that?

I'll just keep my fingers crossed that he has rooted and flashed a ROM, so when he does brick and thinks he's pulling a fast one they see the binary and tell him to go orally stimulate a goat.

Wow you guys still at it while I already have my new epic touch in hand lol. I have insurance for as long as I've been with Sprint, which is almost ten years now and I have only claimed twice before in the past.. I don't hear Sprint *****ing about all the money they have taken throughout the years for insurance I hardly ever use. Or how about these ****ty 3g speeds they give us? I don't hear Sprint saying they would give us a credit for all the money we put in their pocket for data which is barely usable.. Some of you are too funny!

No problem, also welcome to the community. Hope you are able to fix that usb.
One last thing though, now don't quote me on this, but I remember reading that using the usb cord from a g2x or I think any lg phone would get you into download mode. Not exactly sure how it worked, but I think you turned off the phone, connected the usb to the phone, then to the computer. And then power on the phone and it would take you to dl mode. Not 100% sure but you might want to look into that

To the OP, best of luck and let us know how it goes. There are DIY tutorials a well for usb port repairs.
And as for buying used phones, we must be careful. But otherwise, I say go for it. My SGS2 was purchased used via Craigslist and it's been running great with zero problems. I suggest everyone considering a used purchase visit the xda forum associated with the phone and see what kinds of problems/defects have been common with the phone so you will know what things to look for when you make the buy.

Well ladies and gents after tomorrow I may be moving to the Galaxy Nexus. I have been eyeballing them for a while now and today my brother got one. He brought it over and wanted it rooted and cool custom rom put on it and we had an evening of fun with it. I can upgrade to that phone for $.97 and that is hard for me to pass up. There is nothing wrong with my Inc 2, but I sure do like that bigger screen it is very snappy and I don't think I can go wrong for a dollar. I have also been looking at the S3 for awhile too, but I will give the gnex a go and see what I think.
The phone may be $0.97 up front but it's not a $0.97 phone. That's the subsidized price. The real cost of the phone is in the monthly fees over the course of a two year contract.
I'm sure he knows that..

Oh yeah, I know they still get their money, especially with the data charges! I have been purchasing my phones used so I could keep my unlimited data, but I now work from home and don't really need unlimited data because I stay connected to wifi 90% of the time, so why not upgrade and get my new phone. The only con I could find was the lack of a SD card, but I have a 16gb sd card in my phone now and that is plenty for me.
Well, I did go ahead and get the gnex and so far so good. I still have my Inc 2 and will still play around with it from time to time and if for some reason I find something that I dislike with the gnex I will have something to on hand to activate.

I think that's what ill be doing. That phone is still good and you don't have to deal with branding. Plus you get the benefit of LTE.
So far it is a great phone, running PA on it and it is running smoothly. I don't think I will regret getting it at all.

Only reason they knew is due to not using triangle away.
Has nothing to do with visiting the xda forums. It would be bad businesses if they did that and unacceptable.
Many people here are not rooted who visit these forums.

What about mobile odin? I used it and flashed the version I was with mobile odin and it returned me back to stock even when I was rooted and running JM11. It all said no no and official. And normal status.

Try a good protection plan, so in the future you can skip dealing with T-Mob.

Hi guys, after having a faulty Note 3 for about a month I have requested a new phone from Tmobile.
They have promised me a "Like New" device, not refurbished.
But I do not really trust them, I have a feeling like even my phone is not new.
I know that there must be a way to check if my phone is new or refurbished. I have 4.3 android installed.
All the standard codes do not work ... ##786# etc .... can anyone help? Maybe point me to some app?
P.S.
Nova launcher did not help either.
Thank you.
after a month, yes you're getting a refurbished device. new exchange is 14 days or less, everyone knows that. stop worrying if its refurbished, if it works better than your last one then all is fine... just focus on testing the replacement and make sure that it works for you. if it works fine then move on. its a refurbished replacement. its replacing your damaged device.
it'll be fine

My whole question is how to test the new device ....
Just regular check ... ? Or maybe there is some kind of an app.
And I do not think its fair that I should get a refurbished device if I received a bad one since day one.
No app can test a phone like fully. It is under warranty. Plus you won't have it long enough. Just enjoy it

Bastards sent me a refurb phone, basically i lost 400 bucks in value for nothing.
Also it has a minor scratch on the screen and the S-Pen doesnt get out without a fight. I have requested another one.
NEVER WILL I BUY PHONES ONLINE.
any phone you get from tmobile from exchangers are going to be refurbs. I got one but I'm not complaining. This refurb is better than my new one. No more Unstable wifi. And it can handle being uv so much better
Also all the S pens are hard to get out. It will get easier over time.
As for the scratch call and *****. They will replace it

I wonder if I got a refurb when I bought my note from mobile. I had an issue with the phone not wanting to boot after pulling the battery and replacing. I didn't notice this until months after. I recently left tmobile for straight talk so I couldn't take it back to them. So I decided to send into Samsung even though I tripped Knox. They fixed it (according to the service website) and its on its way back. I'll test out out to make sure, then sell it.

Ill keep that in mind.... Want to have phone that is not refurbished.. I bought this one for $700 refurbished is half price.
WTF they steal 50% of the value for nothing?
Another point: Refurbished phones are 90 days warranty while normal ones 1 year...
