Good they didn't see you.
If you call it in they may make note it has water damage.
Now you prob will have to pay the $100 insurance for a refurb

Is it still working?
My friends phone has been with a red dot for almost a year now.

they offered me an HTC Hero yesterday at the store and i declined it so they gave me another TP2

She is actually perfectly fine with the TP2..I have just lost all faith in HTC. I had 9 TP1s in 7 months. My other line had 6 in in 7 months. They hated me..I made them load all my apps and contacts everytime. Finally they gave us TP2s. They were a little better. Only had 2 or 3 within the year on each line.

Yup. Htc for u. NO SOUP FO U! I went thru 6 tp for dead kb and oily rainbow screens. They gave me a tp2 that was better since it didn't over heat to the surface of the sun. But still slooooooowwwww! I didn't realize how slow these htc devices until I got the Epic with eclair. Now its about 1000x faster and reliable. Trust me. Ditch htc.

get the hell out of this thread you hack! phones are made to go bad intentionally because the smartphone industry wants you to buy the latest and greatest so they can make more money cuz that's what they want. whether it be HTC,samsung,sony,toshiba, all the same.

The insurance program is not a "trade-up" program. I know that we have had the luxury of being babied by Asurion/Sprint alike, with going from the 6700 to 6800, 6800 to 6850 and from the 6850 to the 6875. Some of us out there have gone ahead and taken the plunge and gone over to Android with the EVO, will there be something else available for the EVO at some point? Maybe, no time soon though.

The premium you pay allows customers the luxury of receiving a device without having to pay retail for a new device. Even when it's deemed necessary that we pay the deductible. $7/mo=$84/yr, the deductible is $100, if you were allowed the TP2 at no cost from a TP even as late as a year ago you're only in for $184. Cash money phones, even the most "economical" start at $219.99 MSRP.

With all that being said, there may still be a possibility that Asurion/Sprint may be putting people into the HTC Pro7, why? Because, it's not a jump in technology. The specs are virtually the same, the operating system is new, but not staggering. Specifications are what are taken into account, so, no 4G phones. (Don't quote me on this paragraph, it's just a possibility. It may not happen, at some point you're going to have to sign a new contract. Whether it's with Sprint or one of it's competitors)

Thanks for letting me air this out! I work for a "preferred" retailer of Sprint's and get to hear day-in and day-out customers ask "this is my 3rd, 4th, 5th......phone, what phone do I get?" "Sir/Ma'am, you will receive the phone covered by the insurance program, which is whatever device is registered to your phone # at the time of the claim or something comparable" and comparable could be many things, not what you deem is proper for you to receive.

As a tech for sprint the c word is not allowed in my store. Compensation

I was having problems with my T-Mobile TP2 and I just did the claim to get a new phone sent. My brother that's obsessed with cell phones and the T-Mobile rep at the store said there's a very high chance they'd send an HD2. It'd be quite cool if they did, but I'll just have to wait and see tomorrow.

Well... Arent you one angry troll! Why so angry at the truth? Because it hurts! We all know that. But I will give you credit, you did say something correct. You said that companies release phones that go bad so you run out to but the next gen phone.thats correct for htc.its 100% correct! Why do I know this? Because I was a buyer that actually did that! I had a 6700 that was awesome for its time, then the 6800 came out sporting a dual core cpu. We were all happy because we thought dual core would perform better and more efficient. Turned our we did get a dual core but our did NOT perform better or efficient. It performed worse and slower and hotter! Turned out HTC didn't want to pay qualcomm royalties to activate the hardware acceleration on the ms72xx cpu. We complained seens tom tom and igo ran at about 3fps, making it incredibly hard on the eyes seens it was so jerky. We said, "next gen should make htc fix this problem". Well we got the Vouge, touch Pro, tilt, touch pro 2 and all those had even worse performance issues seens some of those ppcs had higher resolution screens. Whay did we do? We went out and bought them. Then HTC promised a real fast hardware accelerated phones under its new highly touted Snap Dragon cpu. Well, we went out and we got a fair phone.we were impeded to se higher frame rates, but only because we were given phones for 4 years with crippled gpus.so jumping from 3fps to 12fps on Snapdragon gave us thre illusions that we finally got hardware acceleration! We did, but too little too late.Galaxy S came out, and that actually surpasses the iphone. Not only the iphone, but the new gen iphone 4. And the iphone4 out performs the Evo by alot! So now imagine how the galaxy s compares to Evo. Yes sir, you just got pwn3d. Have a nice day with your snapsnail. Hope it makes you happy, but dont bother showing it to your iphone4 friends, youll regret it. Hehe. Btw... I rubbed my epic on all my iphone4 owners... Cuz I can! When I had the Evo, I was shamed to use it when anyone had their iphone out using it. I would only take it out and use out when I had people around me using their free flip phones our their lg phones. Cuz that made my Evo look like it was a super computer.

jaja are u serious? u were actually ashamed to use ur EVO around iPhone 4 users? WOW i used my TP2 in front of EVO and iPhone 4 peeps all the time. me a troll? u are the one who busted up in here and took this thread off topic, the question was what sprint asurion was giving out for replacements not how crappy HTC products are vs other manufacturers, if u think ur samsung is going to last to the next generation u are blind.
