Re: Sprint now replacing Touch Pro w/ Touch Pro 2!

For those of you who have gotten refurbished units, did they give you a SIM CARD with it?

I told him that neither of those phones met my needs, but I couldn't keep coming back to the store with issues either. I asked about the Touch Pro2 and although I got some pushback at first I did eventually get him to order it.

That was Friday. Today I practically tripped over the box from Sprint on my way out the door. I received a NIB TP2. The only thing that sucks is that I've had to activate it and tweak it between breaks at work. :)

Long story short, when she went to set up the replacement, there weren't any TouchPro's in stock, so she gave me my choice anyway! TP2 in 2-3 business days baby!

So, out of curiosity (especially for you WisdomWolfX), did they keep your original TP, or did you need to send it back when you got the replacement or what?

I have 15 days to ship back my Touch Pro (sans battery and back) or I'll be charged $50-$200. The envelope to ship it back came in the box when I got the new Touch Pro2.

Actually at the store the TP2 was NOT on the list for acceptable replacements. I would have been stuck with the Snap or another TP!

Yes, Monday morning 6AM Pacific time

Re: Sprint now replacing Touch Pro w/ Touch Pro 2!

This sucks.. I have gone through 4 refurb touch pro's.. All the other ones had the typical TP issues along with the keyboard dying. The most recent one has the same stupid issues but the keyboard works fine so I can't take it to a sprint store because they will think i am lying. I tried to use the sprint self service tool but it tells me that I have reached the maximum amount allowed. Can I call sprint customer service instead?

Re: Sprint now replacing Touch Pro w/ Touch Pro 2!

I got my TP2 yesterday from the Sprint repair center. It came brand new in the box. I have to admit, its wayyyyyyy better than the tp1. I didn't know the differences would be that dramatic, but it is, I also get a much better signal now, before I would get 0 bars and missed calls, now I get 1 or 2 and my calls go through. The tp1 was nothing but junk and should've been recalled.

Re: Sprint now replacing Touch Pro w/ Touch Pro 2!

I'm curious, what hardware revision does EPST say the phone is? As this phone was supposed to be out in June, it would explain it all if my hunch is correct.

Re: Sprint now replacing Touch Pro w/ Touch Pro 2!

man why is everyone getting lucky with NIB units, i went in on thursday and i received a refurb today. the battery isn't even an HTC battery, the charger is a blackberry charger and thats it.. anyone tried going back for a NIB or at least to switch out the battery?
