ok. well, I took my tp1 in yesterday since my vibrate likes to get stuck on, and occasionally makes funny noises when vibrating. also I noticed the dreaded chrome cracks even though my esn was way out of any posted ranges. all of the conditions have existed for over 6 months but they didn't bother me so I didn't care. besides i never really looked at the tp2 as much of an upgrade (esp since I have a spare tp1 and 3 batteries)
but after a half hour the tech came back out (same one that always seem to work on my phone [over the years]) and said he couldn't find a problem, but sprint was phasing them out...... he ordered me a tp2. I assume it will be in on monday.
the only reason I went in was to at least get a decent referb before I transfer ownership of my account to my brother. I went in with NO expectations, NO demands, just the vibrate and chrome listed as issues. out of the store in just over 30 min, and since I had a stock rom (9 months worth of tweaking) it wasn't even reset.
I know I been hate'n in this thread a bit, but ya'll want a trick; do the above (be a bright spot in your rep's otherwise cloudy and stormy day.)
