Lost my Evo in the lake!

I have TEP and a spare older sprint flip phone. Should I go to the local Sprint store or call for fastest turnaround? Are they in stock now? Will I need to activate my spare for a few days or will it come fast?
Thanks in advance

I would just call. They might be out of stock but they told me 5 to 7 days but got my replacement in 2... they can walk you through activating your other phone too.

Well, I filed online through asurian and paid the "c note" deductible. Unfortunately they say my Evo 4G is on backorder so who knows how long I will have to suffer alond with the old Sanyo scp3200 flip. It's been years since I haven't had a smart phone and I'm suffering withdrawals already. Hurry up and ship me my Evo 4G please!!!!!!

Well, I'll tell you this: I got the same backorder message and got it in 3 days. They also sent me one with a borked screen and, to replace that one, I got one new in box 2 days later. 2 evos, 5 days, 1 win.

Well, they sent me a refurb. Got it today. Display seems darker than my original and battery seems weak. Should I complain?

You can try complaining and you might get a different battery. The worse thing is they can do is tell you no. Don't think you will get a new phone though...

Actually, tell them what you just said and they'll send you another one. My display on the refurbished was yellow and they just gave me a NIB
