Evo on free and clear! Finally :)

Dang....that's a great plan.

Unfortunately, no, it doesn't tell me anything. Even my own account page doesn't say 3rd Party Employee. I think its only something that Sprint can see.

You could call in and act like you want to go over your bill and make sure its still on the 3rd Party Employee plan.

lol i KNOW! now you see why I'm so pissed about havin to give it up. It seems my choice is to either keep riding the wave and hang onto my plan, or move forward with technology (which I'll have to do eventually anyway i suppose, when sprint makes all their phones 4G)

sigh*...between a rock and a hard place.

On a different note, Ice, I saw on your profile your from Richmond...I just moved into the area a month ago. Whats there to do in the Richmond area?

[Iceman1199]

Just depends on what you like to do.

Downtown (the Shocko) is the main spot, but there is also the Fan Area that has lots of nice lil chill spots.

I will try to get the codes for this later on tonight, I will keep you all posted!

Kix,

Good luck...I'll be watchin for it.

Why don't we just send in the Demo Mod form? All we need is a dealer code right? how hard are those to acquire? Seems like thats the only/easiest way...is it do-able?

Kix, didn't you do it that way?

Does that tell you anything?

I see the issue. You have a demo account, not a 3rd party employee account. Those are highly coveted and also limited to authorized agent resellers. They are identical to what a Sprint employee gets. Because they're managed through the indirect channel rep, they probably have no way of affecting any changes on your account.

You could use any 3G phone, Android included. It's the 4G add on that doesn't exist yet till the moratorium expires. Those demo accounts are probably frozen out of the new phones as long as Sprint employees are. I don't mean to dash your hopes but unless you have the contact for the Sprint indirect rep in your area, you're SOL.

Man it's just nice to know exactly what the hell is going on with this thing...even if it's bad news.

My question is, does anyone know if sprint is going to allow employee demo accounts to add 4G and the Evo eventually? I can wait for it (as long as it's not some rediculous 1 year time frame or something) but I just wanna know that it's comming. Also, does that mean that filling out the demo mod form still will not work for me, even if I can somehow get a dealer code?

Thanks again for all this information, its so good to finally know what the real deal is.

I'd say try the demo mod form and then if it doesn't work they will just email you back with why it wont work. From what I have read they don't have any way to tell if it is an employee line or an actual demo line they are making changes to. I used to work at radio shack and I still know a couple of the managers there so I will try and get a dealer code today and post it tonight or tomorrow. I have also tried calling and have gotten nowhere. It sucks but i'm confident it will work eventually.

KIX, What did you put in the action requested part of the form? Can you maybe explain what you put in that part and also in the comments part?

Thanks in advance.
