Phone stolen today.
I've suspended the service and tried to use plan b with no success.
I have insurance with tmo.
Is there any way I can locate it+how much will it be to replace via insurance claim?
:crying:
If you have insurance it shouldn't cost more than $40 to get a replacement.

Insurance claims are more like $130. Lost my phone before.

Damn didn"t know that. Had two phones replaced before on my contract and only paid 40 each time for new one.

There is an app called (plan b) in the play store.. It's made by lookout it can be installed remotely and help to locate your phone

This app works bit ur service must still be on. I have used it before and works great
My favorite is Cerberus. Been using it since my D1 days....although its a little late now but I would recommend using it on your replacement.

Cops won't waste the resources for a phone that is not worth it.
Report it to T-Mobile and they will put the IMEI on a black list that it can never be used again...
I got a replacement via asurion
I'm not sure whether my stolen phone was imei blacklisted but they said it's now deactivated.
Actually pretty happy because my phone had tons of lines and a few scrapes+ scratched

That's precisely what I did and now..I'm getting a WHITE SII :victory::victory::victory:
They sent me a Blaze because apparently they didn't have any black s2 left...pretty dumb of them.
I think no apps can match 'find my iPhone' if in this situation ad i also have all version of iPhone.. once i try to locate n yes i found it back....
Samsung should have one of those..
Anyway, they shouldn't replaced to you the blaze i think... :banghead:

I just received my replacement t989 from TMobile, and realized my original phone's screen quality was horrible! I powered them on side by side, and my new phone looks clear as day with bold colors, and my original phone looks distorted and VERY yellow! I will post pictures after work. Has anyone else noticed this?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
Yes. Also got a replacement recently and I can attest the screens have gotten better on the newer-made phones.
Updated OP with a picture I took of them side by side. You can clearly tell which one is which.
Same here, my previous t989 screen was crappy and the moment I turned on my replacement phone I noticed a huge difference with the screen quality, felt like I am using a whole new phone.

I think the replacement just has a better screen. I don't see them degrading to that extent, especially in this short of time.
If you have insurance T-Mobile discounts the exchange to only $5 and you get free overnight shipping.

It was free, but they changed it to $5. It's worth it though since they added overnight shipping.

they don't care if its rooted. This is not a manufacturers warranty, its a 3rd party private insurance. They insure hardware, not software

I will look around on ebay and see what prices are there. If you want to quick sell just lower price $50 or so and you get your fare price.

That means the past owner didn't pay a bill or owes a balance so you can't activate it on Sprint until it is payed off

Because when they purchased the phone they got it at a huge discount that Sprint subsidized counting on this person being a customer for 2 years. Now they terminated early and did not pay the ETF so the only recourse besides filing with a collection agency is to deny them the revenue (they think) of selling the phone.

Gotcha gotcha. I wish there was some way around that. 130 for the phone is a steal. And its clean

My wife actually had a phone with a bad MSN. So I took it over and developed it. Always nice to work on device with no worries. I tested it as much as I could. It still works with wifi so, able to still almost everything but actually make a call. There are apps out there to actually make a call via wifi but then that actually would defeat the purpose of a "phone". Unless, your connected to wifi all day everyday.
