Return TP2 for EVO 4G!? SPRINT

[GhettoBSD]

Having both, I liked the evo except for the lack of keyboard. TP2 is cool, still liking tp1 keyboard more though. Larger screen makes it ok! :P

want to exchange it for the 4g. anyone done this?

So let me get this right, you have totally trashed your TP2 and you want to get an even trade for the hypest phone on the market? Fair is fair, as with anything, (health, dental, automobile), I suggest insurance, and to take better care of your equipment, instead of saying "it doesn't work" and leaving someone else to foot the bill with higher prices. I'm not trying to flame anyone, but in the real world people don't (or shouldn't) use something until it's broken, or has no value, then ask for an upgrade.

please explain. maybe we can help you here! "acting really funky" coud be anything. have you ever ran a clear temp or clean ram program? ever done a hard reset? do you have 500 emails and thousands of texts? in your first post, you said it had an oily film on the screen. did you mean under the screen? if so, that will garner you a new tp2 to start over with!

when half the hk stopped working, i would've went directly to sprint and let them know the problem. why are you waiting and not letting them know about the problem with the replacement phone you got?

all depends on usage as you mentioned. I would say the Evo battery life comparing apples to apples (usage that is) is slightly lower than the tp2. The people getting extremely poor results are either using the device constantly(not judging) or not turning off certain apps/processes. Having facebook running all day is useless if you dont need it for example. also, syncing the news widget is pointless when you can just do it when you need it. there's probably 10 other items but in short, battery is comparable but not as good. There's really nothing major that you can't fix on the tp2 through custom roms and tweaks here.

Totally agree with Darren. all ppc have poor battery life. Nice avatar. lol

hope im not to late to answer they wont exchange it but sprint does buy smartphones back they may not give the value you paid but they paid me $60 for my original touch pro by the way was in pretty bad shape and i put that money toward my tp2 so the only other option is if you have sprints insurance you can accidently lose or run it over pay 100 get a replacement post for sale on net wait a couple days to a couple months probably get close to $200 for phone depending on what accessories you have with it if you ask me its a lot less hassle to just sell it to sprint

well my tp is in mint condition (MINT!) with a $60 seidio holster and cover, and they want to pay me $60 as well. F T!
