Good bye hero. :( - Hero CDMA General

It's completely messed up. I took it apart to see if the digitizer was out of place and it wasn't. It just flat out won't work. I wish I could buy a hero off someone but I have no money and now I have to deal with the LG Rumor.

Do you want an Epic, looking for a local trade

I am in st. louis and would like to trade my Epic rooted with CM6 plus many extra accessories for an Evo, preferably the white one with the newer screen. but could be persuaded for a regular one LOL.
Thanks
Had enough of Samsung and their BS updates and broken gps huh? Ya, my epic is now collecting dust in my closet! Evo by far is the best between the two!
Swyped from my HTC EVO
Among others things yes

I would try and stay local man, if you can't drive to get it don't do it. No offense to anyone but I don't trust anyone on the internet and they shouldn't trust you.
As for activation, I was told that having CM on the phone can sometimes cause issues updating the PRL for the switch so you might have to odin it back to stock or flash a different ROM. I went to stock because I was worried about having it on a leaked build. However, with that said, the Evo I got was running a rom with a very custom boot animation (Fresh) and the rep mentioned how cool it looked and asked how he could get that.
yes.. I would stay local... for both party's saftey.
you can call it in to get it activated...
or you can do it online.. by creating an account with sprint.
from what I know.. I dont see why it would matter what ROM you might have on an EVO. the ESN is all that the carrier needs.

Are you willing to sell the epic?
sure, but I would have to buy an Evo locally and activate it before I could ship the Epic
I live 2hrs south, I could buy it or trade my daughters curve and throw in some money. PM if your interested.
Posting on Craigslist probably will give you some results also.
Ah, I wish you were in this Dallas area...I just paid for an Epic recently but I would've rather done a trade.
You might get more action in the marketplace forum as well

I have an add there as well, no traffic though
If u still have ur epic I'd drive 2/3 of the trip to trade u my Evo plus my extended seidio battery & the stock battery w/original box & cables. I'd be coming from OK but I was gonna be in Kansas in a couple weeks anyway.
I appreciate it, but I dont think I want a trade bad enough to drive a few hrs.
Thank you though

Need to Vent!

So... TODAY, I finally got my fascinate exactly how I want it.
Im running SC2.9.2V... Midnight Steel Theme... All my apps set....
everything running great. Best its ever been.
So, what happens...
The phone is sitting on the console of my car... Minding its own business... Some guy cuts me off and it falls between the small crack between my seat and the console. So, I park... get out of the car... and start to move the seat back and i hear CRACKKKKKKK......
So, I start moving the seat forward... Somehow, get my hand under the seat and pull out my phone... Screen is completely Cracked... ARGHHHHH
I have the Bestbuy insurance, so they will replace it, but now I have to start all over again.. Rooting... Installing... blah blah blah...
Ok... I feel slightly better now...
Gonna call Bestbuy now and start the replacement process
...good luck with that, most insurance policies through retailers don't cover cracked screens...
OK.. more VENTING
So, I call BB...
1... They tell me my plan was cancelled back in Dec... The Credit Card I had on file had expired and they couldnt bill it
2... They can not re-instate the policy because its over 3 months since cancellation
3... I had planned on telling them that I lost the phone, but it turns out that they dont cover loss or theft..
Man... This sucks
So, turns out, I am do for an upgrade on my account. I can get a new Fascinate from Verizon or maybe I just go for the ThunderBolt.....
Hmmmm.... Now it gets interesting
CPO fascinate was going for $39.99. If you don't want to spend all that money on a Thunderbolt.

Certified Pre-Owned. Phones that come with nothing but a Battery. Also no manufacturer warranty, as far as I know.
Check them out on Verizon's website. Mine came with battery, charger, 16gb sd card, and 1 year warranty. I have had zero issue's, and the phone looked brand new.

Not a bad option!
I actually called Verizon and added the $5/month insurance...
Their insurance offers a replacement for lost phones.. the deductible is $99 for smartphones.
I cant make a claim for 30 days.
so, 31 days from today... ooops... Hello.... Verizon... I lost my phone... How do I make a claim
Its gonna be a long 30 days looking at that stupid spiderweb crack all thru the glass.
Does it still work?? You can always make a backup in Clockwork/get your new phone/use your SD Card/Root and restore.

Phone works perfect. And that is totally the plan... I just need to get the new (or CPO) phone.
Its funny... I keep thinking about the guy that cut me off... The only reason I was on that road at that time, was because I happened to go to sunglasshut and bought my wife a new pair of sunglasses... She recently broke hers and was complaining that she wanted new ones. I was gonna surprise her tonight with the new pair.
See what I get for being UNSELFISH!
Had I just headed home after work, none of this would have happened. I better get some action from her tonight !
No good deed goes unpunished.
But seriously, sorry dude. I hope you get things worked out.

CPO phone is actually great. People might think it is bad because someone previously owned, but I bought one in January and its running smooth as my brother's Fascinate. I actually do recommend it.
Why did you move the seat back?... bad idea!

Sure... Looking back.. Of course it was a bad
But I thought the phone was between the seat and the console.. not laying on the glide track...
Now... The kicker... My wife HATES the sunglasses I picked... She was happily surprised that I thought of her, but I have to go back tomorrow and exchange them.
And... lastly... No Action.
Goodbye XDA.... Hello Youporn.
My car likes to eat my phone all the time, take a turn like Jeremy Clarkson and it goes OM NOM NOM. I think my case and zagg skin have saved it from a similar fate.
Squaretrade. Warranty service is far superior to any extended warranty. Accidental drops and handling. Water damage also covered. $99 for two years coverage with $50 deductible. They will replace your broken phone with a brand new one, or give you up to $499 for a new one.
Look them up.

Classic I know how that goes.
No doubt a cpo will work just as well but its a shame to renew a 2 year contract for a facinate now. Yea the facinate fing rocks after flashing new kernel, rom, radio, and voodooing the filetable to ext. But is this really a good time to lock into a two year contract for a preowned facinate?
E#verytime I have my phone exactly how i want it something new comes out like a new kernel or a new something and then i end up temp bricking my phone and starting all over... I guess your worse off having to get a new phone... but on the other hand you'll have a new phone!

So I have to take my evo to a repair center

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
from my phone duh
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.

Dude, ive been married almost 3 years now and I know the work-around for your issue. You order it and when it shows up at your door and she sees it you say: "baby, summer is almost here. I got this for you so you can relax by the pool and read a nice book, or listen to music, or even watch a movie if you'd like" The she gives you a big hug and a kiss and when she gets tired of the damn thing its all yours.
PS: replace pool with balcony/backyard if no pool is available.
