Anyone have a Samsung Epic 4G for sale - Epic 4G General

Mines was stolen from me and then i found out i didnt have any insuance.

That sucks. Check the xda marketplace, or ebay. Same thing happened to me a couple months ago but it randomly called me 5 days later and I got it back (it ended up in another city). Funny thing was I offered the guy 30 bucks as a reward and he wouldn't take it but I found out on the drive home the sd card was missing lol.

The battery is probably dead by now, but you should've installed Plan B from the market to locate it.

If he did pay the esn is cleared. I got an evo 4g that way. I bought with a bad esn more than a year ago when they were going for 300. I paid 200 just cause of the bad esn. A few months later I went to a friend at sprint and she checked it for me and it was cleared. Only way to get a bad esn is to report it stolen or not pay the bill. I'm sure the guy eventually paid the bill

Hey Kenny I'll trade you a cracked screen for that non cracked one you got there...

hellototem.com just offered me 30 bucks for my cracked screen epic. they dont even sell on ebay. i listed it at 5 dollars on a 3 day auction, and it didnt sell. gazzelle.com offered .85 cents.
needless to say i think ill take the 30 dollars offered by hellototem seeing as how i almost cant give this phone away.

Thanks Bmoreboy! It arrived today...nice glue job! I tried everything to get it into download mode but no dice. I got a little knife and sliced away at the glue. It ripped off part of the keyboard including the 1 key.....but miracle it still pressed in. Got it in download mode and odin'd FC09....passed but still stuck on Samsung. Repartitioned, EFS clear and it almost booted once except really really slow. After 20 minutes of the Galaxy S screen I figured I would try Odin again. Still stuck on Samsung. Tried everything from DI18 to EH17 to FC09. I guess it is the wierdest Brick I ever seen. Tried Heimdall too. They all pass and reboot.
If you need the screen Nube, it's yours. But the protective case is glued to it too.

I'm screwed if I break my Epic!!!!!!

best buy has none any more, here in Va Beach, I JUST found that out when my wife got home from taking my oldest to Best buy with his broken Epic, the forced an upgrade on him so now my wife has a Iphone ( ewwww) and my oldest son has her old HTC evo 3D, but the store manager said they told my wife that the Epic is no longer made and if I break mine I get a free upgrade, only problem in the only Samsung is the SII, other than that its a keyocreia, or a LG optimus, and another phone that I have never heard of So I guess when I do finally decide to upgrade I will have to leave the Epic for dead
Orrrrrrr...be careful and take care of it. I have my original still gotten 2 weeks after release.

Best buy also offers you the full retail value towards the purchase of another phone. So whatever it was at the time of purchase for you it may be $500 towards a new phone off contract.
Even without a case, it's still somewhat of a tank. I dropped mine at least 5 times and it's fine. And before me my dad had it while putting up billboards.

+1! I've dropped mine numerous times, once even into the snow (screwed up the charging port for a couple of days) and this phone just keeps going.
Kinda disappointed, I'd love to have a free upgrade... oh well.

I got my Zagg invisible shield professionally installed right after I got my epic, and put it in the commuter case right after. A couple weeks ago, I had the invisible shield replaced under the lifetime warranty after a knife in my pocket had gouged it. When I took the case and screen protector off, my epic looked brand new. The only part that is worn at all is the keyboard, and it is _very_ worn. =)

It may have its shortcomings and limitations compared to other phones currently available, but the photon q runs circles around the Epic.
I love my epic, and I love cm9, and I'm not jumping ship yet, but come on.
Sorry, it's just the facts of the matter. Newer faster technology, better screen, and I really prefer the photon q's keyboard. 'Nuff said.

eh. I was wrong. i rebooted and its fine again... ive only been able to kill the epic twice. once from mass amounts of vomit. once from the drunk girl.
I wish every time my car acted up I could just shut it off and restart it to make it work right.

Wait wut please clarify...I upgraded from my Hero on october 6 of 2010 at bestbuy, but I signed a 2 year contract (I believe it was $250 at the time lol) so if I were to stick with best buy and upgrade again, they will deduct the epics full retail value from back when I got it from an unlocked phone? I still hve the original receipt and upgrade papers/contract..

I am talking about Black Tie insurance. If you have it and your phone breaks and is no longer available, then they give you the retail credit towards a new phonesnfull retail value.

You can occasionally find good phones on cowboom.com. I got into the Samsung Epic because I found it on CraigsList and the ESN wasn't bad -- but it was locked to someone else's account (gr!). Had to port it to cricket, since it was basically stolen.
Talked to a few of the cricket flasher people -- and they said you can find GOOD phones on cowboom. So, I searched Cowboom and got another Epic. The trick to getting a good one (mine said it was covered in scratches -- it was pretty much brand new) is to look for one that has nearly everything included with it as far as accessories. Mine showed as a poor quality, but it was flawless.
Search fairly often and you should be able to find one. Like the others said, get a case and a screen protector. I use a Seidio Active and love it.

Insurance

I have scroll down questions and answers for a while and I didn't see this question yet ,sorry if has been post before but I was wondering what insurance most of you got ?
pros and cons ?
BTW I'm on T-Mobile ,(not sure if it makes a difference)
I know most new phones are fragile not just the N4 so Im really thinking of getting insurance for this phone..
Thanks a lot

I don't get any. I never drop my phone and I'm responsible so it doesn't get left at bars or restaurants.
If you're doing something where your phone has a chance of getting damaged like working out, running, playing basketball, etc., just leave it at home.

Trust me , I over protect my investment as well , just got rid of my gs3 that I paid full retail price since the release date and it didn't have not one scratch NO where on the phone ,never dropped and clean it at least once a week ,but accidents do happen and to be honest I didn't really enjoy my s3 that way I should of cause I was really worried to drop it or scratch it so I always had a screen protector and a case so of course it made my display look different as well as the phone .

Unfortunate Event
I bought insurance because the last phone I had had a defect in the screen and it one day shattered. Anyway, I bought the nexus 4 and love it. Had it in a case until the other day. Dropped it right out of my vehicle when I got up. Slid on the pavement a good ways. Well the top right of the screen shattered and left half my touchscreen unresponsive. The back of the phone looked like brand new. Then I guess it put too much pressure on the screen while in my pocket and cracked even more down the rest of the screen. Now the whole touchscreen doesn't work. Ordered a replacement through my insurance costing me $150. It is unfortunate, but I am only paying like half of what a new one costs. =(

I have insurance through tmo and I have a rugged case on my n4...personally I like the look and feel of it. Id like to also add that I am responsible with my phone but things happen, that's why its called an accident because its unintentional.
I'd rather pay the 7 bucks a month and sleep better after all that's what insurance is about, no?

They must have changed their policy because I got insurance on my phone and I bought it through Google. Also, I was never told that it was an extended warranty nor was it even brought up in our conversation.

Let me tell a tale regarding the insurance... I bought the insurance on my last phone, a Vibrant, and will never, ever buy it again.
About 6 months into having my Vibrant, I get a text one day saying something to the effect of: "please return the damaged hardware in order to avoid charges on your phone bill." I call T-mobile and tell them about the text, they say they don't know about the text (turns out they were correct - Asurion sends out the texts), and assure me that it was probably a mistake and that should be the end of it. Two months later, I open up my T-mobile bill and there are TWO charges for 275.00 a piece. This begins a nightmare of epic proportions. Some low life scum had somehow gotten my insurance info and had managed to file two claims on my insurance and had in essence purchased 2 Vibrants for 125 bucks a piece. After literally HOURS on the phone with both T-mobile and Asurion, I finally managed to get the charges wiped and things cleared up, but not before T-mobile threatened to send the outstanding charges to creditors. I thought the story was over - I even used the insurance to replace my Vibrant that had fallen on the pavement and shattered the screen.
Then, about 6 months later, it happened again. And not just once, but FOUR times. I begged and pleaded with Asurion to set some sort of alert on my account so that any new claims would be verified with me (btw it is incredibly easy to make a false claim against the insurance with basic account information. The kicker is that you can have the replacement phone shipped to ANY address simply by using the online claim form) after the first of the four false claims. They said there was nothing they could do. With each new claim, I had to spend hours on the phone. This was made doubly frustrating by the fact that I had indeed made the only legitimate claim against the insurance. Because T-mobile and Asurion are two completely separate companies, I got minimal cooperation to occur between the two. I will say that T-mobile was always patient and understanding throughout, but I think that had largely to do with the fact that I have been a Powertel/T-mobile customer since the mid-90s.
By the time I actually used the insurance, I was only saving 100 bucks off what a Vibrant would have cost me on Craigslist. I would have gladly paid 100 bucks to make all that trouble and frustration go away. Never again.

Guess What! Lucky Day people! ATT Lets loose!

I woke up at 1030 am this morning, and called my local ATT corp store. Asked if they had the note 3. They said they just unloaded them and are getting ready to put them in inventory. I asked if i could buy one today and Josh said "sure thing. just have to get them logged" went to att, waited 20 mins for him to log them in, now using my AMAZING NEW NOTE 3. Im in Indiana but feel free to try with yours

I preordered mine on the 13th of sept, and it doesnt arrive till the 7th. Went to att store, saw people activating their new note 3 with such happiness. Tried to get them to fulfill my order with store stock, didnt happen. ATT preorder fail. I guess the best thing comes to those who wait, right? right??!!! fml
I got mine today I believe it is $725 outright, $299 with 2 year contract or $35 a month on AT&T next and you can turn it in after 12 months for a new upgrade.

Replacement device

Has anyone received a replacement device after the 14 days, if so was it a new phone. My phone started acting up the night of the 14 days. I went to the store that morning and was told the phone would be mailed as a like new device due to the warranty and since the phone is only 2 weeks, a new device will be sent out. I know this is not true but wanted to check with you guys.
I have to say it is way to early to start getting refurbished phones. Maybe 2-3momths in.

It will be delivered today and will post my finding.
So it was a refurbished phone, so I called the store and asked my did they wast my time and theirs bow making if 3 days past the 14 day return policy. They apologized and said they will exchange for a new phone in the store.
No idea what you are saying with all of those autocorrect errors. Yikes. You might want to consider changing to a different keyboard...
But if they are going to replace in store, that is good.
