Ok, so i was doing my normal texting madness last night until about 12am. I began to notice what looked like black liquid forming on my phone around where the "w" is on the soft keyboard. I also noticed that when i needed to type w, the screen would intermittently not respond.

Thought nothing of it and went to bed.

Woke up this morning and my screen was TOTALLY dead, phone was working fine, screen just didn't react.

Wanted to rule out some weird custom ROM side effect, so i flashed back to the stock ROM. No change, now i couldn't even get past the calibration screen (ROFL)

Soooo, I went to Sprint on my lunch break, the lady took one look at the phone and ran into the back to see the tech on duty.

About five minutes go by (i was playing with the Hero, nice piece of equipment!).

She comes out with a new box in one hand, and my phone in the other. Just like that, she hands me a Touch Pro 2. LOL, i didn't even want to upgrade, I was happy with my Touch Pro...apparently Sprint is tired of working with them and will swap them out immediately if you take one in.

So, now I am heading over to the TP2 section so that I can get into a nice custom ROM ASAP!
