Remove battery then place in microwave face down on a rag for 1 to 3 seconds.

i wouldn't try and cheat as sprint employees do read this site.how long have you been with sprint?maybe even try the *2 route and just explain that you want to upgrade.now if you're trying to get a free upgrade,good luck with that.

Try messing with your PST values.

any ideas?

Any physical damage done by yourself/lost/stolen requires you to call Asurion and pay a $50 replacement fee and 99% likely just get a regular Touch replacement.

Wonder if there is a simple way to mess up one or more of the buttons to make it seem defective so they'll have no choice but to replace it with the diamond. I don't want to take the chance and find out that I would have to call Asurion.

If anyone have a better idea, let me know. I too would like to upgrade to the diamond.

Not so hard now is it?

I agree with insoc 100%! Some folks here are just out to get over on the system and get a free ride. Just buy it...That would be the manly thing to do...

I completely agree. I have never asked for a free upgrade, or taken my phone in for arbitrary reasons, but when I do actually have a real problem, they have always gone above and beyond my expectations.

It's losers like you that ruin the entire world around us because of your selfish greed and attitude that everyone owes you something. You are probably between the ages of 13 and 21 and are acting like a 4 year old. Buck up, be a responsible adult, and pay for something for once in your life. If you want a brand new phone every time something cool comes out then buy it. Don't cheat people and lie about things to get it. If I found out who you were I'd have you fined and/or jailed for it. Get a life and a job and experience life other than what your mom has handed you on a silver platter your whole life.

Hostility in such a peaceful world is just as much a issue as you are making this out to be....
