any others on here except me?
what exactly do you mean by champions???
Hmm.. Well anyway i have a Rogers Magic with 288Mb Ram, i was gonna get the mytouch but considering it only had 192mb, i said its not worth it.
2000 tmob u.s. employees were selected to recieve the myTouch a few weeks ago. im curious to see how many know the phone they have is capable of half the stuff it really is.

lol! well i was actualy at tmobile yesterday purchasing a screen protector for my Magic! and they didnt know believe me when i said the mytouch had 192mb Ram instead of the 288 from Htc!
but as far as i know, the phone itself is great apart from the ram issue. it has more flash memory so that people dont complain about there not being enough space for apps..and blah blah blah..
Another T-Mo champ here. They should be here if they are worth the title. Sad though, I think most are not. They just wanted the Phone.
I have lived on here since my MDA... .... I am my stores Champion .
Pretty much the same here. I cant even count how many people I have recomended this site to.
Im one of the champions. We have a forum that we can only access from work computers. There have been references to this site. Thats how I found my way here. Ill be sure to soak up as much as I can.
Just downloaded the Sherpa app and it seems to work great.
Hey dru66, where did you get the sherpa download. can't seem to find it on my unit. Did it come with the las update, or did you actually have to install it?
Its on this site. Its just the apk file you need not the whole folder

So my MyTouch 3G Slide is bricked.
So I filed a claim with Asurion, and they are offering me either a T-Mobile G2 or a Garminfone.
Which one should I get and is it better than the MT3G Slide?
Give me some comparisons.
G2. Bigger screen, processor and overall a better phone.

G2 is a good choice, I'm not too sure about that Garminfone... Never really looked one up, but it's looking like that was the one to go with.
What was disappointing about the Slide? I've just rooted mine so I've still got enthusiasm about it.

It had so many errors, and after I rooted it, it got worse.
I even did the fix by ROM Manager to fix FC's.
Rooting sucked. Flash didn't work for websites, the FN and CAPS lights didn't work, and icons kept moving themselves.
Using the LED with the camera would always cause a FC. No avatar for the user.
Later it bricked by itself after 3 months of smoothness.
Just went to Asurions website to see if this was accurate and it is and it also says the phone is no longer even being made, at least in black. So then I went to T-Mo's website and they don't even have black listed to be bought as new, so it appears gentlemen this phone is dead and is not even being made anymore.
Did you call saurian or tmobile?
Went throiugh the process of a claim and didn't finish, and it offered me the G2 or Garminfone as it did with the OP, and it stated those were your choices due to the device you have no longer being made After that I went to T-Mo's retail site and saw you can not buy a black Slide new as of now.

Wow, I wasnt even aware that the slide reached EOL so soon, but then again they dont even show the commercials for it anymore.
Why is there a deductible though if the phone had a problem like it will not charge isn't that supposed to be free?

There policy may not allow a free phone, so they only take a portion off the price.
My brother-in-law called tmobile today because he had a problem with his slide and they said they were gonna send him out another black one? How is he going to receive a new slide if they don't make them anymore. Where does it say where they are not being made anymore? Does anyone have a link?
It said it as you make a claim through Asurion. Now if you go to T-mos site they sell refrubed black ones still but not new ones. Maybe Asurion can't get them anymore but T-Mo still can.

Is going through tmobile the only way of getting a phone without having to pay a deductible?
after a couple calls to t-mobile trying to get my phone replaced (camera cover fell off at some point and there is a crack in the camera lens) they refused and stated that i had to file a claim through asurion because the phone is "damaged". me not wanting to pay a $130 deductible for an a problem that was not my fault, didn't file a claim till after reading this so i went through the process and sure enough i get the G2 offered to me instead. i gladly paid the deductible and am expecting my phone tomorrow. Glad i didn't pull the trigger on that nexus s last week.

But then you would have two phones(G2+N-S) and you could sell the G2 and profit.
Screens pulling away from the housing (5th replacement). No worries there quick unroot and its good to go.
What's got me puzzled is that I was told that sprints still out of evos.. new and refurbished? I'm a bit pulled on this could have something to do with what's going on in Japan?
I understand the evo/android is popular but to still be out of stock is crazy

Don't the Sprint repair center carry replacements so even if they are out of stock you might still get one?
And yes, it blows me away the phone is still hard to get

Sprint or Asurion? Or both? Asurion told me 14 days when I needed a replacement but actually got it to me in about 10. When I did get the phone, it was brand new and not a refurb, which made me happy and the well worth the wait.

I'm actually going to pick up my replacement EVO today, it did take a few extra days do to back orders, but it's in now.
I had the same issue, screen pulling away, this will be my third.

does anyone know if they are replacing warranty issues from tmobile, or warranty claims with asurion for the G2 with the myTouch4g slide?
I hope so, I would love to get a free upgrade. My screen has been slowly messing up and I have been waiting for this to be verified before I call in for warranty replacement.
If anyone knows it to be true or false it would be great to know either way.

Wow.. i don't know where u are getting your info -- hopefully your not dreaming - !!!. I wanted to ask, would u think a fair trade / upgrade / exchange if a mytouch 4g (no slide) was given for a G2 ? And if not - how much cash should be added.
Aside from the fact of the keyboard of course...
Thanks
Definitely not, at least not as of today at 5 oclock. I just talked to a tmo rep about my phone having issues and they are sending me a G2 replacement tomorrow. I asked half joke/half serious if they could send me a mytouch and the guy laughed and basically told me they aren't in the same league. An 800 single core vs a 1.2 dual, a pretty standard basic camera vs an 8mp one with HDR built in. Yeah, it'd be nice but keep on dreaming.
Exactly there is going to be no way in hell that you would get that phone as a replacement especially since has not been released yet. Maybe in another 6 months but then g2 out of warranty by then.
Any idea what the partial upgrade price would be?
I talked to the local tmo store and after giving them the "I've been a customer since 2000, blablabla" spiel they said they might be able to work out a replacement deal once the MT4GS hits stores on the 27th. I told them I loved my G2 but that I was concerned about "all of the problems" it has been having (in quotes because mine has been solid since day 1) and that I wanted a more future-proof device (does that exist in the technology industry?).
just talk to them.. they're human beings. they have policies, and policies can be bent to make the customer happy, especially if you pay your bill on time and have a good track record with them on not losing devices, not many replacements, etc.
I talked to the loyalty department. They wouldn't give me one penny off, I've been a member for 6+ years, never missed a payment, had one warranty replacement on my G2. I mentioned "all the problems" ive been having with my G2 and soforth and they told me to eat ****.
This whole myTouch 4G slide as a G2 replacement thing has been taken out of context I believe. Don't get me wrong, I would love to get upgraded to the mt4gs but I seriously doubt that is ever gonna happen. Even though our beloved G2's have been labled 'end of life' there are still hordes of refurbished ones that asurion and tmo will use for warranty replacements rather than lose money replacing it with a next generation phone.
Edit: @Kaczman: the last line of your post made me LOL hard... thanks for that

I would personally call that a downgrade :/ It's essentially the same hardware without a physical keyboard.... The screens could (arguably) be considered better and you have a bit more ram but tell me one time you couldn't run something on your G2 because of lack of ram because in a year with mine it has never happened.

While I understand what you guys are doing, if you want a new phone go buy one. HTC put out a great product, don't call TMobile making up issues and making it seem like a pos just to get a free upgrade.
We all love to stick it to "the man", but grow up guys. Off contract phones are expensive, but if you are that impatient that's what they are there for.

So? I scored a BNIB white N7000 for $530 less then a month ago. Wanna have penis wagging party?
Relief!
Coming from a Galaxy S II that had screen issues, ( yellow tint, uneven brightness, you name it ) I had to deal with terrible costumer service and I was worried that the note would be the same story all over again.
After having lost trust with super amoled+ displays and Samsung, i read that the Note doesn't have super amoled+ screen, so between the Nexus and the Note, I chose the Note and haven't regretted my decision since. Great display, great battery, Spen, and ICS is on the way. I couldn't have asked for more from a device

does it count if samsung sent me a brand new one for free, and i'm not sure why they did it?
I got mine used, as new, with warranty for £300, and was very happy. The Note is the first phone I've owned that I've been really satisfied with. The SII was pretty good, but not quite good enough...
