1.80 is brand New Touch Pro, if it's over that weight means they are sending you an extra battery. I just replaced my old TP with the new one, I had the cover creaking sound, loose keyboard, and raised Home screen button, I Confirm to everyone that the new TP batch is totally solid and the screen brightness is the same as my old one, no yellowish color, alot of improvement since November, I'm so Glad I did the exchange.
I recommend to everyone who had their TP in November and december to exchange it.
So now I have to send my old TP back, but I need an extra battery. Do they ask for the battery and stylus, or just a plain phone?

Re: Upgrade To Touch Pro Free!!

I just called, they said that they have the Mogul in stock, which number are you guys using eh?

I cant stand this phone anymore, it has like 4 white spots on the bottom left hand corner, and its the 5th mogul that I have gotten from Sprint thanks to problems like this, and now the current one I have wont power on after it goes to standby, so I cant get calls or make calls until I soft reset it.

Re: Upgrade To Touch Pro Free!!

Here's what I did:

First of all, I have legitimate problems with my Mogul. It's my second one and it is so slow it takes me like 30 seconds to even dial a number. I guess the hardware isn't fast enough to handle Windows or something. Anyway, I saw this thread and did the following:

1. Tried to go through the sprint website for advanced replacement. The website offered me a UTStarcom 6800. That wasn't good enough for me. I cancelled the request.

2. Called *2 and hit 0,0 to talk to a human. Explained that my mogul was locking up and my business prevented me from going to the repair center (which it does). She forwards me to Asurion.

3. I told the dude at Asurion that I hated my mogul and I had read on the internet that a lot of people had similar problems but were happier with the HTC touch pro. I asked if he could replace my Mogul and he said yes. My Touch Pro goes out in the mail tomorrow.

4. He had to put $50 (deductable) on my sprint bill (which is acceptable for a phone that costs $700)... but I'm planning on calling Sprint when I get the bill and asking them to credit me the $50. Usually they will to keep you happy.

So... thanks guys for this thread- I'm very happy to be chucking my mogul back to Sprint... let's hope the TP is faster/better.

I'm in the same boat as you duck. Got mine in November and had the same problems. I did my exchange and got it today! now to compare them since i haven't had time. i think I will keep the battery I might call to double check.

me too the UPS just dropped it off at 5:50pm, I didn't even activate it yet, the only I need to compare is the sound quality if its any better.
please let me know when you find out if we can keep the battery.

i'll let you know even though i had bought some oem batteries off ebay lol

battery cover doesn't creak no more and home key is even with screen. Keyboard slides right up with a pop

Unfortunately I just finished comparing them and the new one seems to be less white(not really yellowish) on full backlight than the old one. but o well I don't really see a difference. If anything maybe they did some changes to the stock rom or something to make the full backlight less, so people save battery power.
