TP Recalled!

I just got back from my local Sprint store where I was told that they couldn't get any TP's because there has been a recall from HTC for a "software issue" They said it was a active sync problem. Also that Best Buy was not perticipating in the recall. And I got mine from BB. Um dont BB have to inform there customers when there is a recall on a product they sold?

And just my luck that I flash a new rom and then there is a recall! Anyone have any luck in relocking yet? Or if I somehow get a phone rep to send me out a new one what will happen if I send the unlocked phone? Think I could play dumb and say I just seen online about fixes and I followed the directions not knowing it would void my waranty?

Re: TP Recalled!

This can't be true. Is there anything stating this on the sprint or htc website?

Stores have a habit of making excuses for low stock that you cant argue with.

Seriously? A software problem? Thats what rom updates are for.

Flash back to stock and relock it. Also, you stated it's a software issue. Sprint and or HTC will probably release an update for people that already have the phone. HTC probably just halted the current shipments so they could fix this in house. You are making this sound like the phone is going to blow up in our faces or something lol.

Also, there was a security patch evidently http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=47697
