Lost Stylus Need Replacement Sites
 
Anyone know where I can purchase a replacement stylus? I've googled and ebayed and found either only stylus that say they are not Sprint compatible or they are for the Touch.

Do you have a sprint store by you? They give those things away like candy on halloween.

I was just going to say, "Beg and plead and if you have to... flirt your way to a replacement at a Sprint store."
I swear thats what worked for me in the end.. I tried and tried, but the timing was bad as the stores were just getting the phones in when I was needing a new stylus so they didn't have "spares".

I'll have to try that to see what happens, although I don't like the Sprint store we have here because of the horrible service. I like the Sprint Express store much better, except I don't think they have things like that at the store... can still check though.

Does anyone know if the stylus that the Touch Pro uses the same as the Touch or other phones? Why is it that the CDMA stylus and the GSM stylus not compatible with each other?

Seidio has one in the works that doubles as a pen and should be available soon if you don't mind the pricetag. http://www.seidioonline.com/product-p/sy3in1htch2.htm

There will also be a 3 pack... http://www.seidioonline.com/product-...y3in1htch2.htm

Have you tried to talk to Sprint about getting a replacement? A friend at work was able to get them to send him a new one.

I'm in the same boat as the OP, I checked out the local sprint store and they don't even carry that phone in stock.

TMZ mailed me one and I already received it and am currently using it, thanks again TMZ.
I know this one will eventually be lost so it's great that Seidio is selling them now

Just received 3 of them.... and they are going back. The one thing I liked about the OEM stylus was the magnet that held it inplace. The pen stylus from Seidio lacks this magnet and is held inplace by very light friction. I can see it falling out quite easy, over time, when the side wear down and the friction becomes less.

Anyone know where I can get a batch of REAL OEM ones that actually have the magnet?

Re: Lost Stylus Need Replacement Sites
 
So does anyone know where I can get the OEM stylus? Just called Sprint and they don't have a clue, as they "say" they don't have them for sale. WTH???

Someone has got to sell the real thing(the one with the magnet) somewhere...

I even tried a local store, who didn't have any either.

Why is they stylus so damn hard to find?

Re: Lost Stylus Need Replacement Sites
 
ya where can you get a OEM stylus - sprints stores here in Kalamazoo and battle creek look at you like you are on crack - checking ebay a lot of the sellers (all out of hong kong) say that the stylus wont work with CDMA versions of the pro.. why?

Chuck_IV 03-03-2009 11:43 AM

Re: Lost Stylus Need Replacement Sites
 
This has been EXTREMELY frustrating trying to locate the OEM versions with the magnet. It's really starting to aggravate me that I cannot find them. even Sprint themselves claim to not have any(at least the CS people I keep speaking to don't).

If you are gonna sell the phone, how they heck can you NOT have the stylus to sell for replacements?

Re: Lost Stylus Need Replacement Sites
 
Just an FYI I contacted HTC directly - awaiting response..

Chuck_IV 03-04-2009 08:55 AM

Re: Lost Stylus Need Replacement Sites
 
Well, I am 0 for 2 with Sprint. Called twice and 2 different people told me they didn't have the styluses(styli?) to sell and that I should try a local store to see if they had them. I tried one and nothing. Gonna head to a repair center further away, at some point tot try them and see if they have any extras.

Honesty tho, WTH, it just shouldn't be this difficult to get an OEM replacement stylus. Sprint is REALLY POing me on this and their total disregard for their demand/necessity.
