Well I just got off the phone with a tech from Verizon. Because I am still within my 30 days they are sending me a brand new phone as well. So we will see if anything has changed? The guy I spoke with new nothing of any remedies to this issue. He had no recalls say or bulletins on this! He said that its most likely a software thing rather then a hardware thing. He did also say there affiliate in europe is now running 6.5 rom stock. So our update to 6.5 should not be long and with doing the update to 6.5 could possibly fix this problem. Again he didn't know of anything only speculating. So guess we will see come wed. I cant wait to hear what others have to say when they get there's today!!

I just got my NEW replacement that supposedly has been "fixed".

Build date: 2-Nov-2009
Radio: 1.88.07WV
This and ROM haven't changed.
Hardware Version: 0004


Previous TP2 that was also a repl:
Build date: 2-Oct-2009
Hardware version: 0004

I guess I will have to run it and see if this problem has been cured. I just don't see what has changed.

I am using factory Verizon rom nothing cooked.

Rom Version :1.18.605.12
Rom Date: 08/15/09
Radio 1.88.07WV
Hardware: 0004

What is everyone else running??

[janko10]

My refurb just came in. I don't notice anything different but I didn't expect to.

8/29 build date, all version numbers are the same. Refurb says NO but it clearly is, has 283 calls on the timer and it looks like is has someone's teeth marks around the charge port. Has a nice big scratch across the screen too. I'm sending this POS back and keeping my original phone. I'd rather be stuck in 1x that have this POS.

Froader did your new phone come in a retail box with all the accessories or did the phone just come by itself in a brown box?

Brand new in box, just like the 1st one.

That makes me angry. It's unacceptable for vzw to send you some used pos, considerinf there is a known manufacturing defect with the phone. You paid good money for a phone that was supposed to work properly and you still dont have that phone. See what you can do to get them to replace it with a new one. Let them knolw that the problem isn't your fault and out of your control. You shouldnt be penalized with a used phone.
