Got a Refubred TP and need help
 

well guys im on my 4th TP due to alot of manufacturer defects and this time it seems like im in another sinking boat.....

well the other day i went to the sprint store so they could replace the broken one i had (the screen class was coming out and the touchscreen seemed to never respond unless u pressed some what hard

well they gave me a new TP no problem but the PHone this time was a Refurbished one and now im having a serious problem with this one....when u Charge it or plug it in for active sync the thing gets Considerably hot...hotter then any of my other TP that were charging or even had a data connection....

now when i use evdo the thing getts super hot and the phone isnt even a week old.....i cant even charge it no more because im afraid of runing the phone even more or lighting something on fire.....

is this a known defect?

taking the back cover off helps a ton. i also use hard kb to release a lot of heat. i just got a new not refurb today and it has nowhere near the heat my old tp has. change your phone info. also please.

you might wanna update your profile lol! you still have a verizon 6700! but the sprint refurbs and new ones both do this. before you get bashed for your thread, i say keep it, use the heck out of it, when it overheats or breaks down, get another one. that's pretty much all you can do without going thru asurion.

Changing to the Telus radio seemed to help a lot with the heat on mine. I still have my original one with an October 08 manufacture date, I believe.

just tell them it gets so hot, it only half-charges. but you'll only get another refurb unless you really kick and scream.
