EVO LTE on The Voice - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

My wife and I were watching The Voice tonight on our DVR and they were featuring and the contestants were using them in their social media room.
Kinda pissed me off.... but I'm not sure why. LOL I want my damn phone!

Haha...that's exactly what I was thinking! I said out loud to my wife, "I had to pre-order mine and I still don't have it...and they're getting one for free?! Pisses me off!"
But at least it shows they are ready to go...I just want my friggin phone!

Tmobile lost my phone?

To start, I am a prepaid customer using a vibrant bought at a off contract price. Ok, so my phone starts having numerous problems (very low volume earpiece, poor reception in a good area, etc.) and I get a replacement order. Catch is, I have to send the phone in first. Great, I send it in and they tell me to wait 10 business days. Tomorrow is the 10th day, and guess what, no status on the replacement shipment. I know tmobile has received my phone as by the UPS tracking site, yet no shipment info. I have filed a Handset Research Form already and the reps know nothing about whether or not the vibrant is on backorder. What should I do, call and complain to customer loyalty?
(I have talked to customer loyalty and they transfered me back to the prepaid reps, for something completely unrelated to accounts and refills. )
Call them, and explain your situation, and if some rep starts saying "we can't know for sure" or something, bring your game on, be angry.
Tmobile loves angry costumers.
I once asked for a replacement nicely, then they told me some bullcrap, so i got pissed, and told them i want my replacement NOW and if i don't get it, i'm going to come over to a tmobile store, steal one off their show-case and put the broken one on there and leave. She told me "sir your crazy" so i kept getting pissed, eventually after 20 minutes i got a replacement order done

Its a rule of thumb In retail the nice customer doesnt get jack crap. The loud mouth ahole gets all kinds of discounts and his butt kissed for a few reasons.
1 The person you are talking to doesnt really wanna hear your mouth.
2 Its bad press for them. Everyone always remembers the bad services.
3 If you ***** enough corporate will hear it and make you do it anyway because they do not want to deal with. Then you look like the total ass for not doing it in the first place.
These are all reasons why people in my store get free ****. ( no you cant come yell at me because I dont work for t-mobile)
If you don't get any info soon, try emailing [email protected] Explain what is going on in the email and a number they can reach you at. They respond pretty quick. I had a call back within 4 hours on a sunday. They work for the office of the president of tmoble and have the power to get things taken care of.
They are actually the ones that got me hooked on Android. Had issues with the BB that the wife and I had and I esculated the promblem to them. Ended up getting two Cliqs delived the day they were released and 2 months free on the bill.

Exactly.
Being nice doesnt work. Get tough. Btw my story was real. U need to call them out and curse em too maybe not too much but just the right amount
Start slow and be nice at first. be prepared to make multiple calls(thats if you have another phone handy) In the span of an hour.
Dont disrespect the person themselves! They will not help you if you do.

+1 Before I switched to Walmarts Family Mobile (uses TMobiles towers) I always gave TMobile 5 chances on the phone to get what ever problem I had fixed. Never got rude or anything. If by then the problem wasn't resoved, I would email the ExecutiveResponse team and it was handled almost always in the first call that they made to me.
Thanks guys, emailed executive response. Waiting for a response.
Any word back from them yet?

Nope, still waiting. I expect a delay of a day or two.
Who here thinks I can get through a request for a vibrant and free hd2 along with it to reimburse for my inconveniences?
LOL I don't think that will happen but you may get a new Vibrant out of it. Just remember when they call to be nice and calm.
Any response yet?
They never called me but I got an email for ME to call them. Wish me luck today!
Good luck bro, Hope to hear some good news soon.
just tweet them @TMOBILE
you'll have a response the same day.
also, just go into the chat, warranty/replacement, when it asks if you are flex, just hit no. Tell them you had a replacemnt order, and have not received it yet and are wondering the status.
They were able to look up my Wifes order, and tell me the tracking number, that it was delivered to the office the day after I placed the order...(They must know me) lol
The day I contacted them was the 6th day after I placed the order, (great front office huh?)
So yeah, just be nice. If anything, they will overnight you one.
Trust me, they arent on backorder.
Agree that they are not on back order. Two guys I work with just had thier MyTough Fenders bricked by the ota they just released for it and TMobile is relpacing with Virbrants.

Considering the EVO 3D from the original EVO

I am considering going and trading in my Evo for an Evo 3D with Sprints buy back program. I saw that it will be $49.99 after trade in. Is there anything I should know if I go do this? Should I ask them not to update then phone when I go? Just wondering because I know that the new Evos have updated 2.3.3 on them and there is no root yet.
Any advice would be appreciated.
What are you waiting for, get to it. The phone is a BEAST.
The phone comes with 2.3.3 and regardless you can only get temp root, the minor update won't change or block that. Devs are working on a permanent root & S-off solution that might be available in the next few weeks.
Just go & get it
Sent from my BEASTO 3D using XDA Premium App
I would recommended you to upgrade. If you want you can try selling your evolution yourself over Craigslist for example and get some more money. One thing I would strongly recommend is buying your new phone at the sprint store, I have seen many minor flaws on those, probably because they are new (dead pixels 3g speeds and other issues) if you buy at a sprint store it will probably be easier for you to exchange it within your 30 days then online retailers, or lets say radio shack. Just from my experience though.

I just did this yesterday and I am glad I did, this phone is awesome. Also, they said that they are not sure how long the buyback will be at that price so if you are thinking about it, go for it.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Definitely worth it. Even if you dont care for the 3d, the hardware upgrade is worth the 50 bucks.
I was one of those people upgrading for the hardware coming from a Hero and thought of the 3D capabilities as a "gimmick." But NOW, I enjoy simply browsing YouTube for any 3D videos. Awesome technology
When I noticed that my girls speedy was doing circles around my evo when we both had cm7 I knew then It was time. On stock this phone pwns the speedy and the supersonic.
I would also recommend the upgrade.... And don't listen to the trolls.... There always something about a device that u may not agree with.... None of of em are perfect..... But id say go for it.....

Love my 3vo. From my cold, dead hands.
I am in the same situation. The main thing holding me back is that I keep hearing that the call quality is no good. I think I can get used to the lack of kickstand, although that little feature of the 4G has really grown on me.
Can anyone give a real evaluation of the call quality? It is a phone, after all.

no doubt about it man..The call quality isn't the greatest but I think im getting used to it..It is still a phone and performs fine but for the amount of $ we spend on these phones I would have expected something better(call quality)..Still a fantastic phone for me though.
I would hold off until they get an updated line out. There are a bunch of issues it seems with version 0001 and 0002. Just my thoughts after doing a ton of research

id be inclined to say its the network but when i have an OG Evo and an Evo 3D together making the same calls the Evo 3D is a lot worse in call quality..It is the phone but I think its how the phone handles the network its connected to...Its not horrible but its also not what it should be.
i mean seriously,why when making a call does the ring volume fluctuate? Loud for 1 ring then a lot lower on the second ring,then back to loud for the 3rd ring...I think this can be fixed with a software update to the phone.

I've never done a trade in so I don't know that once you do its done or you can switch back. If you can't switch back I would find a friend that owns one. Ask to swap phone for one day. It's hard to tell if everyone's problems will become one of yours. For me I can't stay connected to 4g for very long. I have a tower 2 blocks away and my 4g is 1 bar. 3g is 200kb or less. Better for you to see if that's an issue (or any others) for you before crossing the line and not being able to get your old phone back.
It is a great phone. It seems every day I find something new I like and something i don't. Definately a love hate thing going on for me. Ultimately its going to be, can you live with its flaws whatever it happens to be for you. Is it a deal breaker. And your not going to know before you leave the store.

Hello,
I cannot think of a more cost effective upgrade in any arena than the worst case 50 Dollar difference for the 3D.
Even if you could care less about 3D, the aforementioned Dual Core Processors, far greater amounts of Internal Storage, DLNA Connectivity, etc really make it a no brainer.
If your 4G is in excellent condition and you have a decent number of Accessories, you could get far more than 150 by selling it on Craigslist. I got $300 Dollars for mine. I did include 2 Otterbox Defender Cases and an HTC HDMI Dock as well.
Even now, due to the guy I sold it to going to Sprint to Activate the 4G and walk out with 2 3D's instead, I have been helping to sell the 4G again and have someone ready to buy the 4G for 250 Dollars today.
Cheers,
JJ
OK... I'll be a data point. I got two on launch day. Both had crooked screens but the wife doesn't notice nor did she care when I pointed it out. So I left hers alone but my screen was the most crooked (actually to the point that the lower left corner was up under the blackout) so I exchanged it. We live in a fringe area where the phones typically bounce back and forth between a Sprint tower and roaming. My Evo 4G never once dropped a call in the year I owned it but my first 3vo (yes, that's the accepted name ) dropped a call a couple of times here at the house. I got maybe 1 drop in every 20-30 minutes here, so I categorized my new 3vo to be worse than the old Evo 4G at keeping a call. The new (exchanged on with straight screen) has had no dropped calls yet so it seems better.
And as for the actual call quality while you are in a call, I've never been quite sure what people are talking about because my Evo 4G was horrible for sound quality. The earpiece had the common earpiece rattle and the volume on the new 3vo is much louder. I actually think my calls are clearer with the 3vo than the old Evo 4G.
YMMV.

New Photon With Issue

I bought a Photon from a guy off CL today. It was new but one that was sent back as a warranty replacement phone. Still had the screen protector on it, the battery was in a sealed as was the back plate.
Here's my issue
When youre using the phone, about every 15 seconds, the displays shuts down. It doesnt actually shut down, it just displays nothing.. the display light at the bottom is still on and pressing the power button twice fixes it for about 15-20 seconds. Basically you have to put the screen to sleep and then wake it back up to the lock screen.
Is this a known issue or did I get a lemon? Ill probably never track this guy down again to make this right.
Have you tried chaning the display settings?
Settings >> Display >>> Screen time out increase to something else??? While you are there make sure it is not on 15second timeout????
Having the timeout at this setting would explain this weirdness?

It not the screen timeout. The screen isnt actually going off.. its just going black.. the backlight stays on and the buttons stay lit up and touching the screen actually makes things happen, you just cant see them happening. Actually turning the screen off and then back on with the power button is the only way to fix it.
Well, took it to Sprint and they wouldnt touch it. Told me it had to be on the account for 30 days. I doubt I have any luck getting the guy I bought it from to help me get it warrantied so I guess Im stuck with yet another Sprint POS.
Took the phone to a non corporate store and talked the tech into ordering me a replacement. We discussed that phone versus the Epic 4G Touch and he agreed with me that the Photon was a far superior device from an actual phone standpoint.
Nice you lucked out.

This is garbage if you have TEP there is no reason they shouldn't work on your phone...
Rule #1. Never tell sprint you bought a phone from Craigslist or any other place besides radio shack, target, bestbuy etc. I've purchased a **** ton of CL phones so i have experience lol. When you buy a CL phone you just call to activate it and if they ask just say you got it full price from best buy. They shouldn't really ask questions. Also, if your previous phone was insured it should transfer over without question. As far as getting a replacement, you need to create an elaborate story with details and make believe issues then they'll send you out a replacement lol. They like to "troubleshoot" first.

Yeah mine expires feb 17th this year. Not sure if I'm staying or switching. I've definitely never had an issue getting a replacement phone for one that I purchased from CL. I hope it works out for you!!
Hello,
With Sprint switching to LTE and the fact that there are Cities like Las Vegas where 3G Speeds have increased greatly has me leaning towards staying.
In truth, thanks to my EVO 3D fiasco, I have a 0 Dollar ETF so I could leave Sprint today without paying a dime. It is just after being with them for almost 13 years with a perfect Payment History really helps when it comes to getting credits, swaps, etc..
Also, I really think that the Photon is about as good as any Android Device out there. I do think the RAZR is rad and hope that Sprint gets something similar when the LTE Devices are released in June or so.
Cheers,
JJ
Sprints beefing up 3G and 4G. So for cities without LTE by mid 2012 3G updates should start rolling out. Of course their goal is to have LTE coverage everywhere by 2013. As much as sprint pisses me off they by far have the best plans for voice and data.
The coverage where I live is awful. Not to mention that Sprint has treated me like crap throughout this whole Epic 4G Touch ordeal. I seriously have almost become unemployed because of this phone and Ive gotten no sympathy from Sprint whatsoever.
I understand there are policies and stuff in place but when you have someone telling you "Look, this phone loses signal and you guys KNOW It loses signal and Ive already been written up twice at work because of this phone" youd think you'd get a little sympathy. All I got from Sprint was "Well, just reboot it when that happens" and told to go on my merry way.

Yep and I work in IT support so a lot of times, Im in server rooms all the time and those things are like standing in wind tunnels. Its hard enough to hear a phone ring in there when its working right. When it goes LoS, I have no way of knowing until I can get somewhere and pull the phone out of my pocket.
Its Samsung.. I got sucked back in and bought another one after I swore after the Nexus S I was done with them. But, I mistakenly thought "Well, theyve had this phone out overseas for 6 months, they have the bugs worked out of it." I guess I should have considered that overseas is GSM and that added a whole new wrinkle to the equation.

Epic 4g Touch or Photon 4G

I'm just posting this as a cautionary tale....
I changed to sprint back in November. I happily picked up the Epic 4G Touch from amazon for 1 penny. I thought i had attained pure android bliss.
i immediately began having problems with phone reception and dropped calls. This was not the LOS issue many have talked about, but just in general poor call quality and integrity. I upgraded modems, changed ROMS, and everything under the sun. I finally gave up after a month and a half and went to the Photon.
Short of it...... Not one dropped call in the last two weeks.
The Samsung screen and camera are amazing, but when it comes down to it, You will most likely be extremely disappointed if you plan to use the phone as a good ole fashioned talk box. Fight the urge, just my opinion.
Anyone want to pay top dollar for my gently used Epic 4g touch? Its finally going to ebay this week.
How much you talking? I don't want it (it's a Samsung!) but maybe my mother?
PM me!
EDIT: Never mind, she already b***hes about her reception!
Are we talking about the Galaxy S2 epic touch? If do how much are you asking for?
I got an upgrade in November and got the Epic 4G touch and was very disappointed. After a week of LOS, dropped calls & random re-boots I returned it to Sprint for a Motorola Photon. I LOVE the MOPHO!!!

yes, Galaxy S 2. I'm probably going to put a buy it now on Ebay for $375. I'd give a discount for straight up purchase, but i've never sold anything through a forum like this.
I just went through the same thing. The Epic 4G Touch is a nice device but it sucks as a phone. The Photon is not quite as nice a device as the Epic but it kicks its ass from the phone standpoint and like you, that was the most important thing to me.
My E4GT is sitting here on my desk looking all dejected. Its going to Craigslist probably tomorrow.
Put it on eBay or Craigslist. Stay away from the XDA marketplace you could get scammed lol.

Damn Best Buy, you got me again!

Walked into best buy yesterday to buy a new washer and dryer. After that was all said and done I walked over to the mobile section wanting to get a look at the new Galaxy Note. Well 30 minutes later I walked out with a new ATT contract and a Note.
I still am under contract with sprint for another month but the reception in my area was just slowly getting worse and worse. AT&T has great coverage here so I figured I would give them a try. The only thing I will miss with sprint is unlimited data. But I rarely ever used more then 2gigs anyways.
The note on the other hand is a pretty awesome device, for a heavy texter it's a dream. And the screen is freaking beautiful. Battery life is amazing as well. Been unplugged for 12 hours and still 30%.
But when compared to the Photon it does feel inferior. As many of you probably agree, the Photon is a amazingly built device, inside and out. The note does feel like a step down, so I'mnot sure if I will stay with the note but I will be sticking with AT&T.
Anybody interested in buying a Photon?!

Let's take lazy to the next level, I'd set up a tasker profile which would automagically send a text to my GF when the app alerts me the washer or dryer is done.
Washer/dryer tells phone it's done > phone uses tasker to send text to GF > clothes magically appear in closet.
Winning lol

The note does feel like a step down, so I'mnot sure if I will stay with the note but I will be sticking with AT&T.

All I have to say is check your bills closely and hope you never ever have to call customer service for anything.

If Customer Serivce transferrs you to 2nd level support and you get a 717-XXX-XXXX number, tell my ex-wife hello!
I have never had anyone like AT&T nickle-&-dime me to death like they do. Surprised how they held lock on iDouche toy so long. $79.00 for 1400 minutes. $19.99 for unlimited text. $29.99 for Data. $2.99 cause Im Afro-American. $1.99 cause I'm not white. $0.99 cause I'm not Mexican. $1.99 cause I'm not female. $2.99 cause I did not use condom. $19.99 cause I post on XDA! $2.99 cause I'm not gay! $2.99 cause I might be. $2.99 cause I'm lying! $2.99 to the Republican National Party although I'm a Dem!. $2.99 to the DNP to fight the RNP. $2.99 to North Korea so they dont have Nukes! $5.99 so Solomani Pirates. $1.99 to City Council.
Then they had the nerve to tax me on the call I made from the strip club? Come on, if I'm at the strip club, who the he** could I possibily be calling? My girl? I seriously doubt that! My boy? why would I let him in on my action? My mother? really? AT&T sucks!
Haha . I did buy Samsung washer and dryer but not that fancy.
Yes I've heard stories from both sides about how bad and how good they are. Just like any cell provider.
I really liked sprint but it seems like my reception was just getting worse around where I.work and live, with my job I am on call all day so if I can't get calls then I can't make money so that really made me want to switch. But I liked everything else about them.
Thanks for the heads up on the bill. I will watch it.
My wife is.probably gonna stay with sprint but not sure yet, if she does I might just for her my photon if she wants it, and wait for some thing else to come out for sprint before using her upgrade.
She still using a EVO.

Personally, I never had a problem with AT&T Service. Likely the best I ever had but in 3 years I had exactly ONE correct bill. I had to spend one hour each month argueing on the phone with them and they always would offer me a free iPhone!
Sprint, so far, has been good to me.

How much are you asking for the Photon? If still available?

Sorry about not replying to the sale posts, I meant that more as a joke right now..
Still under contract with sprint until the end of next month so I can't sale the phone quite yet. And if my wife wants to save her upgrade for.something else later she will take the photon.
It's only 3 months old, bought it off craigslist bnib. It's had a invisishield since the first day, and an otter box a few days after. I found the otterbox was giving it scuff marks on the top so I took it off and literally a day after while I was doing a oil change on my truck I went to pull it out if my pocket and dropped it. So.I has 2 tiny chips and 2 corners. Not bad though since the.phone is all dark..
You guys will have second dibs if the wife decides to upgrade. I'll let you know.
