You can't buy one used? Thats why I use Craigslist... I can get a used 3d for like 125-150. Granted our prices are probably a lower on the used market as well. Plus our contracts are only 2 years....
[HTC EVO 3D] randomjon:
NOT REALLY BRO. water damage is covered under insurance, i'm trying to avoid making a claim to the insurance altogether. i don't want to pay them 100 bucks for a new phone, the only reason i pay for the insurance is for sprint to fix the phone when it breaks or if it is stolen. which has never been a problem before. i want to know under what circumstances will sprint replace a phone with water damage for free.

I know when i was with Verizon i got a free replacement with a water damaged phone because the damage to the phone was the physical charging port not connecting with the motherboard, and i proved that humidity could have caused the water damage indicators to show that the phone was water damaged. i had to argue for a while but it beats buying a new phone.

the point now is moot, seeing as how i'm going to fix the issue myself.

sucks about Canada though sorry to hear that.

i'm paying 96 dollars a year i should be entitled to a free replacement of the phone. or the company could set up insurance tiers, like car insurance. where you can eliminate your deductible but pay a little more per month for the insurance. i know i'm comparing apple to oranges but that's just my two cents.
[HTC EVO 3D] flashallthetime:
Craiglist or kijiji but again people will sell a used phone for $250, everything is more expensive up here, smaller population even though our dollar is at par.
[HTC EVO 3D] p3tr0s:
Yeah but you have free healthcare and cleaner air. Not to mention lower population density and your Mounties are waaaaay cooler than our police. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] IAmSixNine:
To answer your question, Sprint Will NOT replace a phone that is liquid damage.

Since you dont know how insurance works heres a brief breakdown.

You pay for your insurance and it allows the local sprint stores to

NOT CHARGE YOU to replace a device under manufacturers warranty.

Lost, Damaged, Stolen, Water are all covered by Asurion and you have to pay a deductible to have the device replaced.

I agree with several of these other people who have replied, your looking for a way to defraud Sprint and the Insurance company.

Take some responsibility, you got the phone wet, deal with it the right way and file a claim and pay the deductible.

Wish i worked for sprint so i could flag your account.
[HTC EVO 3D] scariola:
I do work for sprint, and saying because you pay 96 a year your "entitled" for a free phone?

Insurance has NEVER worked that way for smart phones. You pay your deductible as you were told when you pay for the insurance protection.

If you don't like it, don't pay an extra 100 a year.
[HTC EVO 3D] randomjon:
i'm aware of how the insurance works. again i wouldn't be defrauding the insurance because there would be no claim to insurance. i would be defrauding sprint. but again the point is moot i'm going with the cheaper option and repairing it myself.
[HTC EVO 3D] p3tr0s:
I'm pretty sure the only reason he was looking to "defraud" sprint was because they sent him a faulty refurb with a bad screen in the first place... It just sucks because he dropped in in water before he could take it back in. Phone still works but the screen is even more messed up now.
[HTC EVO 3D] Drachen808:
You don't know how your insurance works. The Sprint store is part of the insurance. The stuff that sprint takes care of are general warranty issues. Whose warranty is it? HTCs. Part of your 8 bucks goes to asurion to insure against loss, theft, damage, water... the other part goes to sprint to pay for the service they provide you by not making you send your warranty issue phone to HTC for repair. So by trying to claim that this is a warranty issue you are, in fact, defrauding your insurance.

Take some personal responsibility for your actions.
[HTC EVO 3D] randomjon:
I used to sell phones for sprint, i am aware of how the insurance works.

Refer to the post above yours he basically described my situation in a nut shell.

I had issues with the touch screen's sensitivity and buttons along the bottom not illuminating prior to the water damage.
[HTC EVO 3D] Jkell69:
Water Damage.. no problem.. major physical damage, big problem

I can almost guarantee Sprint would replace a water damaged phone given you replace the indicators. I live on the water and I have defrauded rogers on multiple occasions (dont care, i would gladly burn the place dont and not feel an once of remorse for those wallet gougers)... But unhidable physical damage will never fly in tier eyes.. yourr screwed.. use the insurance you pay for and take it easy on your poor phones
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Again, if the board is water damaged, there are many signs that a tech can tell it has been exposed.
[HTC EVO 3D] EvilNinjakat:
My two cents. Sprint is horrible to their customers, asurion is a joke. The phones they send are almost always broken very soon after you get them and being without a phone while they decide whether the poop phone they sent you is poop, is even worse. Yes what he's doing is wrong but more power to him. :cool:
[HTC EVO 3D] heathmcabee:
Man get the stick out of your bum, our rates are gonna go up anyways. As far as it happening and giving your snide remark as to our rates doesn't help. No need to accuse this guy of something when he hasn't even acted yet. If you live in a dictactorship area, then I forgive you, otherwise, you just acted like an ass.
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Forgive me for doing the right thing by telling someone not to do something ILLEGAL by lying and defrauding a company.
[HTC EVO 3D] elitetech:
I work for a 3rd party warranty company who offers insurance for cell phones. What I recommend you doing before you call the insurance company is to read through the terms and conditions very carefully, and find an issue that IS covered that you can say happened to your phone. Please remember that the company WILL verify usage of your phone to see if dates match your story. Chances are your carrier will not share conversations between you and them with the insurer. So you could most likely just say that you lost the phone. Don't be afraid to file a police report on the lost phone if required.

Oh and don't worry about defrauding the company. About 10% of the customer even file claims for their phones, and about 15% of those are approved claims. Believe me the insurer will still make their money, and your carrier could care less because they have carry none of the risk of insuring phones.
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Which again, is wrong and illegal. If he has damaged his phone with water, and then purposefully tries to file a claim by saying something else happened, that is fraud.

Again, this is insurance fraud and is illegal.

Again, insurance fraud, AND falsifying police reports is a felony in most states.

Wow, great analysis.... So you're saying if 10% of the population murders somebody, its ok for everyone else to do it because only 15% of the people get caught?
[HTC EVO 3D] bignibb:
My wife's EVO had stopped charging, and we took it in to get it checked out. The service tec took the phones back off and said that some little piece had broken off which is why the phone stopped charging and that we could file a claim and pay the $100 bucks. I said isn't that a manufacters defect he said no because the charging port is broken. I say but its on the inside of the phone and you had to take it apart to see the what had happened to it so its not like we broke it by putting the cable in wrong, something came loose or just broke off. He said that that kind of damage isn't covered under manufacturer warranty...........

I personally think I'm getting screwed but what can you do right? So I think if we can get them then why not? If you think insurance is for your benefit your a fool. If insurance companies lost more than they made they would either be out of business or raise your rates to make up the difference, they raise your rates in order to make a profit sometimes.

Its a point of fact that an insurance company would rather deny a claim than pay it out and that's even for legit claims. Does anyone wonder why you are limited to the number of claims you can file a year?, any more than that the lose money......lol and then they drop you.
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
The tech is correct in this situation. If the solder joints for the port are broken, it is considered user damage. There may not be any damage on the outside of the phone, but if the charging cord is put in the port wrong, or if it's tugged on, or stressed in any way, the solder points inside the phone will break. Just because the part is internal, doesn't mean it's a manufacturer defect.

You have the wrong thinking. The insurance company has nothing to do with your situation. If you want to be mad at anyone, be mad at Sprint, not Asurion.

Prove it. Most insurance companies would rather give you a claim to make you happy, than get you mad and cancel your insurance.

Because there HAS to be a limit. If there was NO limit, people could just treat their phones like crap, and if they break they get a new one.

Okay, more info on the theme/wallpaper issue. Whenever you download a wallpaper it's the right resolution, but it's zoomed in a lot and pixelated. When you try to set your wallpaper as one you download from the MIUI theme app it says failed to decode.

Good to know. Also messaging sms/mms isn't working it keeps crashing when I try and either send myself a text through the app as well as when receiving texts from anyone else it crashes and never shows the messages Going to try flashing the cm9 instead.
[HTC One V] jmz:
that def isn't something i know about. but im going to start over. i did the latest version from memory without flashing. That will teach me
[HTC One V] Mellexx:
Haha well I'll be keeping an eye out for when you restart it! Other than that messaging issue, and a tad bit of lag with the live wallpaper (haven't tested that on stock rom/cm9) it seems to be running pretty solid.
[HTC One V] Noctourniquet:
I'll keep an eye out for this too! Maybe it'll go official like the GSM One V MIUI. :) I'd love to go back, there were just too many little bugs when I tried to use it last.
[HTC One V] Mellexx:
Giving this build another test run. I think that sms issue was an error on my end. I'm also going to try and check with a third party sms app to see if it still happens.

Edit: stock sms still crashes upon receiving, or entering a number into send to form. It also causes settings to crash if you click on messaging inside the list of all apps. Other than that, once I disabled the live wallpaper it runs like a charm. Maybe you could frankenstein a quick fix for the messaging into a temporary build before you fully restart it if or when you get the time?

Using any third party sms does work, it just throws up the default messaging force close.
[HTC One V] jalexishg:
I'm not asking for ETA but are you still working on this ? Please don't take it the wrong way just wondering since is a really good build I've been running it since the latest version came out. I'll love to see this closer to perfect.

Thanks for the awesome work you do. :o

Nope, still crashing it was worth a try I guess. Stick to third party sms apps for the time being
[HTC One V] MrPandroid:
Its weird. I only have the messaging issue when trying to text myself...I've gotten texts though without a problem from others...

So an update on the SMS issue. I've noticed it only crashes when I type a phone number that's not in my contacts. Such as my number or a random one. Anyone in my contacts works fine though.

Great work as always jmz. The minor issue with SMS really to me isn't a big deal, and the rom runs great.

Is anyone working on a version of MIUI for the CDMA/primoc version of the HTC One V?

(Asking only because I heard JMZ has moved on to a new phone.)

Also, not able to apply themes for some reason. The app says the theme has been applied but nothing changes.

EDIT: I found a fix for the theming issue. I remembered when rukin5197 was porting MIUI to the LG Optimus V we encountered something similar to the issue I was experiencing so I went hunting through the old MIUI threads on Android Central...this is what he said:

Thanks for the fix! Posting it here so if any others follow they'll see it.
[HTC One V] bornagainpenguin:
Did anyone ever figure out a fix for this? I really need to be able to play music through my headphones--I am hard of hearing and have special ones that work with my hearing aids. Also holding the phone to my head would get old after a while...

I really want to stick with this rom if at all possible as it seems to be the best one out there for me right now. Really wish it were possible to get a stock Android ICS without Sense, but MIUI is pretty sweet!

CM9 is stock ics...
[HTC One V] topdawg661:
I think he means AOSP
[HTC One V] bornagainpenguin:
I know but it doesn't work for me. I mean I need something with fully functional camera (ie doesn't crash on me when I try to use it or produce wildly screwed up video) unfortunately CM9 does this even when I try to apply the fixes for 720p video. In fact last time I tried I ended up with triple video smeared all over the screen. It was strange to look at!

So far as I can tell MIUI works best for me with regard to the camera. Sure I have to set video down to 480p but at least it doesn't produce the triple video of the CM9 I tried.

There is an AOSP? All I saw for Primoc was CM9!

Found temporary fix, posting it for future users of this rom who encounter this issue. Taking a hint from the way the USB mounting bug was fixed I went looking for a widget that would allow me to manually toggle the headphones, found an old project updated from the Android 1.6 days(!) called toggleheadser2 which can be found in the app store here.

My best (functionally illiterate) guess would be thatthe code to detect the insertion of the headphones is borked. Since I do not know any better I speculate that perhaps the issues with detection of the USB mounting and this issue with detection of the headphones might be related? Since I am an idiot I freely expose my ignorance to the world by asking if this might be so to the rest of the forum....:silly:
