Well that sucks ! Ha this will be the weirdest reason to have to get a replacement phone!!! some idiot left a magnet in my damn phone when it was made

oh well at-least I see no one else is having this problem

Actually no one left a magnet if your phone because that isn't what is used in modern RFID security systems. Do others set the alarm off with your phone. Because I doubt it is the phone being that unless some sprint employee put a coil behind your battery the phone can't set it off.

Yes its the phone ! if I pass the phone over to a friend from one side to the other and it beeps then that makes it the phone!!! nothing is stuck to the battery cover and the phone is from asurion so who knows what its been through.

The color of your skin is a non-issue.. Now to the issue at hand.. Is it one particular store that this happens at or all stores that have the metal detectors?
