[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
So I had to do a claim because my charger port is shot and they don't have any 3Ds to send me. I went ahead and had the phone shipped because I neeeeeed my phone, but I'm pretty upset. Am I totally screwed with a pos Samsung or do I have any options ? Buying a new phone full price isn't possible right now but I am thinking about switching carriers
[HTC EVO 3D] thermbug:
After my 3rd evo I'm kinda done with HTC for a while. Plenty of development activity over there.
[HTC EVO 3D] Riff76:
The E4GT is probably going for more than the 3D right now on ebay and stuff. Call Sprint retentions, have them give you an upgrade, sell your sammy and buy the evolte at $200. Make it happen
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
I'll try that, I'm not too optimistic about it tho lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] thajacka:
i might try this as well....$100 for that phone is a good deal...my charge port is about gone too. and i wouldnt call the sgs2 a POS phone. it was one of the best android phones out. its better than the evo3d IMO. did you do this online or did you call in?
[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
I'd trade phones with you...
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
It's all good, I went to at&t and bought the only one-x Best Buy had..I guess it somehow didn't get stuck in customs? I'm not sure

I have 30 days to decided if I wanna keep it, I'm disappointed..but I will sell the Epic 4G touch if anyone is interested. PM me.
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
I pm you....
[HTC EVO 3D] lyon21:
My plan is to do this when the LTE comes out. It should work. I know some people get their 3Ds that way.

Sent from my ICS lovin 3D!!!

If I've helped you in any way... hit the "Thanks" button.
[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
Is this still valid?
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I'd be more than willing to trade. Marylander here.

EDIT: Ooops. Didn't read the comments.
[HTC EVO 3D] starplaya93:
OP, can you verify if you received a new or refurbished E4GT?

I am going to have to file a claim because I messed up my 3d pretty bad and i'm curious as to what I may be getting.
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
I'd like to add here if it's not too late; the Epic Touch 4G is a fantastic phone. I strongly recommend you play with it a bit before getting rid of it.
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
I am in the same boat as well. I've cracked my second Evo 3D within 2 months of each other. I haven't cracked any of my previous phones over the past 9 years, but I've had bad luck with my 3D lol. I am also about to drop Sprint for Verizon due to coverage at and near my house, basically non-existant. I moved from Hawaii to DC because of being Military and where I am at now sucks big time. I've been here for a while and have tried the airwave thing, but my area sucks in general. I have a Verizon blackberry for work and it always has reception where my Evo and Evo3D does not. Also, has anyone else had this happen to them?
[HTC EVO 3D] Cloaker:
Curious as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] royshero:
Wait a month try to sell the epic for 300. Then u might be able to find an evo on craigslist for 400.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Alright guys. Just for ****s and giggles I went on phoneclaim.com and filed a claim. Didn't follow through all the way but they said I would get an evo3dpur purple as my replacement and it was on back order and could take up to 3 days to get it. I never knew it came in purple and I wonder what OS it would come with.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
My EVO 3D has been out of commission for 2 days now. They said I won't be able to get one in my hand until at the earliest, Thursday of next week. They won't do ANYTHING for me.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Damn dude. That sucks.
[HTC EVO 3D] Astrikz:
Same here. Mine since monday. Wont get one until next week on Wednesday
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
I just filed a claim today and the phone they offered was the purple 3D. I don't care, I'm getting the 4G LTE as soon as it's available (hopefully by Tuesday) and I'm selling the replacement 3D to my landlord's kid. I ordered it today and it said backordered 1-3 days but it shipped today and it'll be here tomorrow by 3pm. I think the purple one was a Best Buy exclusive.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
Are you getting a NEW one or Re-manufactured? I was told I'm getting a new one.

UPDATE: Just checked the information that was given to me in my email a couple days ago, and it'll be here this afternoon. Apparently, Sprint doesn't update the page when it actually ships, so they like to get my blood-pressure going through the roof. I kind of feel like kicking Dan Hesse down a flight of stairs right now.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
That's cool to finally be getting ur phone! Do u plan on downgrading ur hboot? You'll probably be in the same boat I'm in with a locked 1.5 but I'm actually going to just wait for the ICS update. Unless by some miracle we get a real easy way to root LOL! My phone is a replacement for my og EVO so if I screw it up I'm not sure if I can get a second replacement. Although I heard somewhere u can get up to 2. Not sure how true that is though.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
3 a yr max
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
I will probably get it with 1.40 on it already. It's a brand new one, so it's probably been sitting in a box for a while unless it was recently manufactured. Either way, I'll definitely be downgrading the HBoot to 1.40 if it is on 1.50. My buddy just got his replacement, which was a refurb, and it was on 1.50. He was able to downgrade it successfully. It's a little tricky to do, but it can be done fairly easy.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Yeah u probably will get it on 1.40. My dumbass got mine about 3 mo ago and didn't know the difference and accepted the ota. As u and everyone else I'm pretty sure knows, Never accept an OTA!! I'll probably try to downgrade at some point though.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
Like I said, a buddy of mine did his yesterday, and it didn't seem too difficult at all. Unknownforce has made it as easy as possible in his thread. I probably won't have to do it, but if I do, I'm confident that the steps will be easy enough to follow.
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
I checked the other day and it's 2/year (the year starts with your first claim), and 2/contract year in NYS. I live in Buffalo, NY and get new phones yearly so every time I get a new phone I get another 2 claims I can make.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
They must have changed it as it was 3
[HTC EVO 3D] dberend:
According to the TEP brochure on sprints website it's three per 12 month period
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
UPDATE: Got home, Sprint shafted me. They've been telling me for days that it was a brand new phone in retail packaging, and I got a "Remanufactured" product. The phone's glass is raised above the bezel on the top portion of the screen and the battery door doesn't sit right around the top where the headphone jack is. After a couple hours on the phone with another 4 or 5 people from Sprint, the tell me they're sending me a new one. Called back to confirmed, turns out they're sending me another "Remanufactured" phone with a battery and a charger this time. Another 3 or 4 people later, turns out, they have no brand new ones. Stock is completely out, and they can't do anything about it. Told them, as long as the next phone I get is up to par, I'll be selling it and buying my EVO 4G LTE. Oh, and the phone I received today also froze twice on me and required a factory reset. Still freezes occasionally.

So, yeah... Next week, I'll be EVO 4G LTE bound for sure.

Oh, and it just turned off on me on its own. Great. **** this phone. **** it right in the ear. I want a new one, stat.
[HTC EVO 3D] babyschmoof:
Same here, however within 24 hours, I received a new black model (shipping page states purple model as well).
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
That's interesting because here it says 3

"A maximum of three (3) replacements or repairs of Covered Property will be allowed per Insured Subscriber in any one twelve (12) month period. The twelve month period is calculated based on the Date of Replacement for each covered Loss."

http://phoneclaim.com/doc_list/doc_view/1727-sprint-erp-042511?tmpl=component&format=raw

And I swear I saw somewhere on their site where it said 2 per year and 2 per contract year in NY. I can't find it now but I know I saw it. Seems like it is 3.
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
So If I file a claim right now I will get a Purple 3D?

is there a way to get another phone? In the past they will give you another phone don't know now
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
As you go through filing the claim, before it's finalized, it says what they have available. It also gives you a number to call if you have an issue with what they have. The purple is pretty dark, not too noticeable. The biggest difference is the speaker area is chrome. I prefer the black but, as I said, I'm selling it as soon as I get my 4G LTE.

Here's a decent pic of what it looks like

[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
Guess I filed mine in time. They replaced mine with a new in box epic touch 4g
[HTC EVO 3D] aseercte:
Did go to a sprint store or you did it by phone
[HTC EVO 3D] youdug:
best buy insurance ftw. sure im getting a refurbished 3vo but i could care less, if that ones fcked up im gonna break it and get another one. unlimited replacements with best buy. im getting my replacement on tuesday :cool:
[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
By phone
[HTC EVO 3D] DarkManX4lf:
How long do you have to wait to get your replacement from Best Buy?
[HTC EVO 3D] youdug:
i put in the claim on thursday. if there wasnt a holiday on monday i wouldve had it then. instead im getting it tuesday
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
Did you ask for a E4GT or did they say they only had that one available?
[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
Well I "lost" my phone. Sold it for a unspecified amount as a bad esn phone and called it in. They said they would be sending me a E4GT.
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
Ok, well did you ask for as the Samsung or did they just offer it to you? I am looking to replace my cracked screen one, or if someone here knows how to replace it and wants a S-OFF Evo3D PM me lol, because I am jumping ship to Verizon due to lack of service in my area.

Off topic: Can someone PM me a good place to sell my phone. I know a lot of people here are tech savy and can probably replace the screen for cheap and would like to have an S-OFF EVO3D. Just trying to see if it would be woth replacing and trying to sell it or just sell as is.
[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
Cl. I sold a broken evo 4g for 150 back n august. No they just offered it . I guess they didn't want me to be without a phone .
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
my charge port went bad on my 3d. I went to a sprint store and they ordered me a replacement. Anyway of knowing what i will get?
[HTC EVO 3D] mswlogo:
This is why the insurance is a joke. You pay monthly, you pay deductable and get a refurb phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
If he was dealing with Sprint he was trying to get a warranty replacement and avoid the insurance deductible, for insurance you deal directly with Asurion. I have the Insurance, I've used it 3 times in the last year (1 OG EVO and 2 EVO 3D's) and each time I got a brand new phone overnighted to me. Asurion insurance is quite good although, just like everyone else, I am unhappy about the price increase. I'm keeping it though because I've had great experiences with it.
[HTC EVO 3D] DarkManX4lf:
Ask the Sprint store that ordered you the replacement?
[HTC EVO 3D] Yohoho151rum:
My EVO 3D was dropped by someone else (still irks me) last week and the screen shattered so I was forced to use insurance. I filed the claim on Friday and recieved it on Saturday. I just realized last night that the screen, like someone else said, is raised out of the bezel like it hasn't been glued down properly! What gives?!

I had to post because I find it weird that I'm not the only one with that problem. Is there anything I can do about it?
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
never thought to when i was there, just assumed a refurb 3d, they are closed today. Guess i'll check tuesday.
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
How did you get a Saturday delivery?
[HTC EVO 3D] respectagain:
It'll be a 3d. I've just gone through 2 refurbs, and they told me if the next one is broken they will give me a different model.
[HTC EVO 3D] ncfastls1:
Not usually. I broke the screen on my OG evo and filed a claim through asurions website and got a brand new un opened evo 3d. Needless to say I was pretty happy.
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
Same here I usually get new ones :P

Luck of the draw I guess..
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
Its supposed to be in today. Are the refurbs that bad? Anything i should look for?
[HTC EVO 3D] long_tall_texan:
I just got a reman black Evo 3D a week ago from Sprint. So apparently, they have some. Took it in on a Saturday morning. Was told it was backordered and may take 5-7 days. Phone showed up on my porch on Monday afternoon. Don't know how that happened so fast, but it did.

Sent from my Meanie ICS Evo3D
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
Look at the glass for the screen, make sure it's sitting properly in the bezel. Also, when you turn it on, make sure that immediately after hitting the power button, you don't see a dim red light where the status LED is. Those are 2 big problems I have with my replacement. The dim red light issue is apparently indicative that you have a half-bricked unit. Mine barely stays on, and doesn't come out of sleep mode sometimes.
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
Thanks for the info. I just called to check and now it looks like it will be wednesday instead. Oh well, one more day.:(
[HTC EVO 3D] eXplicit815:
I'll have my second replacement in less than a week on my doorstep when I get home.
[HTC EVO 3D] htchd2king:
dang

well i had cracked my phone screen and file a clam with Asurion and they sent me a brand new one straight out the box the only think i didn't like about it was they had told me they were sending me a white one like i had but when i got the phone 2 days later it was black. After calling them back about the color,they had told me that they no longer had any of them when mine was ship and so they just sent the black one. but yea other then that they were pretty descent and about the hole many phone's you can calm in sprint's calendar year is 3
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
When Im in the asurion website, were do I choose the phone that I want? What step it is?
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
I think 3rd. It's after u select the one u want replaced, which is urs, then the.next step should say what they will offer.
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
Has anyone seen any phone that wasn't an Evo3D?
[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
Yes
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
What phone did they offer by chance?
[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
They replaced it with the epic touch 4g. Mind u I lost mine. That's probably why they replaced it so fast
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
I just tried mine and it only says that they will ship an Evo3D back to me...I would really want a ET4G. I tried going back to do it as a lost phone, but it directed me to call them. I guess I could call and ask for one and see if they will do it that way. I'll put that on my to-do list tomorrow.
[HTC EVO 3D] Smac7:
Ill trade with you. My phone is in perfect condition. I used a case and a screen protector the whole time. The phone is under warranty until like the 24 of june or something.
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
Who are you trying to trade with?
[HTC EVO 3D] roninep:
This is my second time going through Assurion in 8 months.

1st time was great. Got a 1.40 remanufactured that worked and looked great.

I put my second claim in today, online, and it will be here tomorrow by 3pm. I did not see where they told me what they were going to send me (didnt really pay attention), but Im hoping its the 3d. Im concerned now reading posts of people who got something else. Is there anyway to go online and see what was sent?

Assurion has been quick and painless both times...hope the phone quality is good with this one too.
[HTC EVO 3D] gonk24:
Charger port isn't covered by the 1 yr manufacturer warranty? I wouldn't think that would be an insurance claim being the 3D isn't a year old yet. I could be wrong
[HTC EVO 3D] tran1981:
Lucky.
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
Sprint covered mine for a bad port (3d) got a 3d refurb yesterday. Had to spend a lot of time on the phone, not many good answers on when or how i was going to get one. Not a great customer experience, but then thats common everywhere now. (no charge replacement, not a $100 ins claim)
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
I was told that if the charger port is still connected to the motherboard, than it's still covered, but if it became unattached, you SOL and have to file a claim on your insurance.
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
Charger port was just loose on mine so that could be true
[HTC EVO 3D] nojump:
The charger port on mine is loose also. I'm patiently awaiting a replacement from the Sprint repair center. I assume that it will be a refurb, they told me it would be 3-5 business days.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
R the ports really that bad? I wouldnt know because I never have to plug mine in. I have 3 batteries and an external charger. Only 14 bucks on amazon. Best thing I ever bought.
[HTC EVO 3D] rogerandgina:
Ill trade my brand new 2 hr old 3d for someones E4GT.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Hey man a little off topic but r u able to watch the green hornet? I have the latest OTA on my phone and I'm assuming u do too and it tells me the promotional period has expired. It's in ur apps list.

Thanks.
[HTC EVO 3D] Chauleyboii:
+1 mine says the same
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Oh well. I actually called Sprint about this and they said its free after u make another movie purchase which I'm willing to bet is bull.
[HTC EVO 3D] shazo85:
Looked up what I could get for my EVO 4G as my 3D is not insured. Looks like I would get a Galaxy S II.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Not bad.
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
I just looked up what I could get for my wife's Evo and it showed an Evo. I checked mine, and it showed a ET4G instead of an Evo3D
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Told me the same. I think I'm gonna do it. That device looks sweet specs wise.
[HTC EVO 3D] Smac7:
Anyone who has a E4gt.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Well guys I did it. I took the plunge. Getting a galaxy s 2 as a replacement. I just hope I don't regret it! I think the super amoled should look cool. Plus specs r about the same. I kinda like sense although looking for something different. Been using sense since the hero came out so I'm due for a change. See u on the e4gt thread lol!
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
U should try the e4gt thread. U never know someone could.be sick of their phone and want a change. Especially if u got a brand new one.
[HTC EVO 3D] aseercte:
So you guys are saying that if you go threw the asurion online you get epic 4g touch for instead of a 3d
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
It's hit or miss, I have tried it numerous times, but only saw the E4GT once for me. I am probably switching to Verizon next week, so I will probably not do it. But if I were to stay with Sprint, I would do it with mine and my wife's phone. A mini upgrade for the both of for $100 each.
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Yeah I did it and it worked. Just claim it as a loss and somewhere in the 3rd step it will tell u what u will get for a replacement. If it tells u a 3d just hit the save and exit tab and just keep trying. I just hope I didn't make a mistake lol but I'm sick of sense and the freakin volume being so suckass on this phone. Plus 4.5 in superamoled should be cool.
[HTC EVO 3D] Cloaker:
Mine says Galaxy SII.

Anyway, isn't this felony insurance fraud? lol
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Got the my 3d the same way from my og EVO lol. Shooshhh!
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
So lets get some steps straight...

You need to report the phone Lost in Ausurion...

And you need to pay the 100$..

Can the next person thats gonna do this post a screen shot on step 3 were is says ET4G?
[HTC EVO 3D] Cloaker:
I created a claim online, in the last 3 days, it went from offering me an epic touch. Next day was them saying there was no option, I would have to wait 3 days for a replacement 3D. Today, GS2. Make a claim and just keep checking back every day.
[HTC EVO 3D] doeboy711:
Well, technically both my wife and my phone have a cracked screen, so not in my case
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Insurance fraud...
[HTC EVO 3D] t4d73:
Yes and no. I mean 8 bucks a month for insurance ends up being $192 over 2 yrs and ur paying $100 on top of that! So where's the real fraud lol. I think u should be entitled to it really.
[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
+1
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Insurance is NOT an upgrade program. You are not "entitled" to use it just to get a new device. It's there in case of accident or hardware failure. Any other use of insurance is insurance fraud and is illegal.
[HTC EVO 3D] mad82109:
Ok officer
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Grow up. It is insurance fraud. Regardless of how much the final payment is, you can be convicted for it and it most certainly is a felony.
[HTC EVO 3D] wardfan220:
There's been enough talk of insurance fraud in this thread. Next person to discuss it in this forum will get an infraction

Thread closed.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Slayder19871:
Ok, so since i cannot post this issue to the Developer page yet, is anyone else having an issue tethering with cyanogenMod 9?

I have a Xoom 4G/LTE.

I just flashed with ROM update-cm-9-20120518-NIGHTLY-stingray-signed.zip, and went to test out my tethering.

Low and behold, when I attempt to tether (Wi-Fi/Bluetooth(unable to test USB due to running MacBook Pro)) it connects to the device, but will not share the internet connection. I looked on the developer forum and could not locate the issue.

Is there anything i overlooked or is this issue being worked on?

****EDIT****

I also noticed when connected to the network, when i would go to look at my connection status, it would not display the Wi-Fi connection

I've searched high and low and haven't found anything on rooting the new Toshiba Excite AT305. Apparently there's an issue finding ADB drivers that will work with it.

I've had mine for a couple days and other than not being able to root I love it.

Has anyone had any luck rooting this tablet? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!!
[General Questions and Answers] AspenMan:
Anyone? Please? ;-)

@AspenMan

im about to buy this same tablet today and i have the same doubt... i was googling and i've found this link - http://www.thriveforums.org/forum/toshiba-excite-10/ - an entire forum only about excite 10.... so... maybe... maybe they will have something soon.... i hope very very soon =)

Cheers =)

PS: mind to say a word here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26307077 ???

PS1: And this tablet comes with what in its box? charger + tablet + manual + what else???
[General Questions and Answers] AspenMan:
So far I really like the AT305. It does have a little light bleed but it's not that bad on mine, maybe I got lucky.

The only things I really miss about being rooted are AdFree and Titanium backup. Other than that I'm digging this tab.

The only things that came in the box are the USB cable (with Toshiba's proprietary connecter at one end, full size USB on the other) and the Wall USB charger, rated 5v/2000mHa. The user guide is just a quick start guide with the full guide in PDF format on the tablet

I do really like the fact you can charge this tablet off a standard USB port. I got an external battery for it to charge on the go and it's works perfectly (Amazon Link), and a micro USB host cable for it (Amazon Link). Be sure any external storage you're using is formatted to exFAT (or any other FAT formatting), NOT NTFS. It doesn't like NTFS. If you use an SD card formatted to NTSF it will be read only... Took me a while to figure this out...

Now let's hope the devs figure out root soon!!!!!
[General Questions and Answers] mndshok:
I happen to know that one developer has adb drivers now working for the at305. He has not posted them yet but I am hoping soon. Keep an eye on the at305 forum listed above. Hopefully we can get these tablets rooted soon.
