You're a theif and a liar. I wish you would've tried that at my store so I could have sent you packing with your damaged phone and missing card. I really hope karma pays you back double for your actions.

More on topic. We have no control over what versions they send us. You got a replacement, that is all we can do for you.
[EVO 4G General] lzlaxhacker:
I also agree. I feel like the only reason it took so long for the OP to get a replacement is because actual stock of the Evo is super-limited. It wasn't like whatever store he was doing it through was just screwing around and holding out stock of a replacement. What a douche.
[EVO 4G General] afflictionx:
Ha, how noble of you

[EVO 4G General] gqstatus0685:
First off I didn't mean chipped literally so stop trolling for post counts. My girlfriend didn't care about the light leak I just figured I'd get it replaced.

Secondly I was being dicked over. I had to call and check up on them despite them telling me they'd call me. They never called me to tell me to pick up my preorder not did they call my friend to tell him to pick up his. He had to call and they told him that it had came in earlier in the week. The store is run by idiots and YES my intentions were to keep the card. The manager, DM and DM's assistance are idiots. I don't like being lied to and jerked around.

My light issue stems more from the fact that my screen is up, ever so slightly, at the bottom. Pushing down on it results in nearly all of the leaking light to disappear. Can live with it myself, but the screen issue, and in turn the light issue, happened pretty quickly on my phone. Not too upset but I can see why some would be.

edit: meant to add, does the new screen lift up at all. Two people I know with similar issues seem to have it like me. Haven't seen much leakage on phones that aren't lifting, but maybe I'm wrong. Also think a few people are getting a LITTLE carried away. But I get where they're coming from.
[EVO 4G General] lzlaxhacker:
Hypocritical much? You don't like being lied to and jerked around...so your response is to lie to and jerk around the store? Nice.

How about you try being honest and maybe they would have treated you better. From your responses you sound like the typical "you owe me" customer that goes crazy over nothing and blames it all on the store. If you would have done that in my store and i noticed it after the fact i would have called up and had your account suspended until the property was returned.

Weird I just got two replacements from them also and they are both .3 versions and both still suffer light leakage. I had a hell of a time returning these I had to litterly bring EVERYTHING back including the packageing SLEEVE everyting I did not bring back now mind you after having the phone for over 50 days who the hell keeps anything that long?

Too true, too true. Also, OP, calling you a douche for ripping off a store because they didn't instantly cater to your every last need is not trolling. I don't care about post counts at all and I'm not trying to do anything other than call you out for what you are.
[EVO 4G General] nonpointtruth:
They were probably tired of dealing with you.. That's why they overlooked the slight damage and missing memory card.. No inconvenience to you can justify being dishonest.. You're lucky you didn't go to a respectable store..

Before you blame him, blame HTC for this kind of quality. Screen issues, cracked plastic, when you pay this much for a phone+ 10 a month to have it, it should be spotless. Keeping a memory card is not nice but maybe HTC should spend more time on quality over quantity.
[EVO 4G General] natefuhr:
On the box there is a sticker with the part # and a Rev #

My day one Evo was a Rev A. 002 with Nova screen (06/04)

My first replacement was Rev B. 003 with Epson and no OTA update (07/02)

My second Evo was Rev C. 003 with Nova and OTA 1.47 (07/16)
[EVO 4G General] lzlaxhacker:
While I do agree with you that HTC needs to improve their quality testing, that does not give the OP the right to steal something then brag about doing it on XDA forums.

Come on guys who cares he jacked a $20 SD card I forgot everyone here is an angel. If he punched some old lady and stole her purse then yeah he's a piece of crap but he didn't. HTC and radioshack probably won't even notice because of how little it was.

I feel blessed to be on a forum with angels...

Replacements

I thought I was a phone fanatic until I joined these forums and started reading what people really complain about... They want the battery to last an eternity while they sit and play on it for that long... they want it flawless, even after dropping it or mishandling it a 1000 times....they stand in line for 2 wks, only to sit on the phone with Sprint for 2 months complaining over and over and getting more and more replacements... when I read about the "light leakage", I pulled off my little protective sleeve and I noticed it...then I put the sleeve back on and kept using it. If the phone does not crumble in my hand, fail to turn on or make calls then WTF??? Then they were talking about cracks at the top that you would need a microscope to see.... I say that some people are never satisfied and they always looking for a way to "get over". People that stood in lines but didn't get a phone would probably slap you all for being so DRAMATIC. And yes, I know they are expensive and you want a good product for the money you pay but 1/2 of you got it for the upgrade price and the rest of you were crazy if you didn't because the value of a phone these days depreciate as soon as you take it out the box because something new and better is always coming. I suspect that people with "light leakage" and "invisible cracks" will be trying to send theirs in now in hopes of getting one that is loaded with the Froyo that is about to hit next week....

people....

[EVO 4G General] echoside:
I was just going to keep this one but I've had it for 3 weeks. Never dropped it. Always in a case. Babies the hell out of it. And in three weeks it is almost leaking all the way around the whole phone. I could deal with a little. But with how bad it is and how long I've had it. Who knows where it will be in 2 more months? How much dust is going to get under the glass? You can have case on it at all times and dust will get to it unless you have some sealed case you can never take off. To a point I agree with you and if I know for sure that it won't get worse then I would keep this one. But I'm not gonna risk having a completely screwed up phone and only having it for a couple months. It's not worth it.
[EVO 4G General] lzlaxhacker:
Yes, I am a member of a Glee forum. That doesn't in any way make me a homosexaul. Not even a little bit. In fact, I haven't even posted anything over there, just signed up for a song preview.

Hows the op ripping anyone off? Cause RS empoyees are lazy and did not open the box? Doesnt seem as if he ripped anyone off seems like he got a few EXTRAS for his time **** I should have gotten them too..

Its very well known that Sprint and most carriers just keep the PHONE throw away the battery the covers the chargers everyting they send it to be refurbished so who the hell needs to have this stuff returned? Think about that before flaming people for being HONEST he could have LIED
[EVO 4G General] sohr:
He was only "honest" towards the forum because he's hiding behind an avatar, under the promise of anonymity that posting on an Internet forum provides. He lied to everyone else.

His girlfriend dropped the phone, and he brags about how he put in back the box so that Radio Shack wouldn't notice the damage (it seems probable to me that was the main reason for returning the phone-- the damage he/his girlfriend did), and they wouldn't notice he swiped the SD card.

And who cares what Sprint/Radio Shack does with the phone after it's returned? If you are so sure of this, why didn't the OP just ask RS "hey, can I keep the SD card, since you're just gonna throw it away anyways"?

It's people like the OP who are keeping EVOs out of the hands of people who have been waiting weeks for theirs to come in, and keep the cost of phones and phone services high for everyone else.

But I suppose since you just wasted 5 minutes of my time making me spell this all out for you, that I am now entitled to steal $20 from you, huh?
[EVO 4G General] Bp3dots:
It is possible that the store will get charged the rull retail price of the handset if it is not in like new condition when recieved. So, it's not just a $20 memory card, it can easily be the whole $500 phone. And that is very noticeable.
[EVO 4G General] rjmjr69:
Make it $40 that was a lot of wasted time but thanks anyway. I understand and agree with you but I'm saying its not his FAULT RS didnt look in the box is it? Had they looked in what do you think they would have done?
[EVO 4G General] Bp3dots:
In my store, the OP would have been told to kick rocks with a damaged phone. The memory card, we'd have kept the one from the new phone. But there is no way a phone with any cosmetic damage would be exchanged under the 30 day policy.
[EVO 4G General] :
I picked up my second Evo at RS and guess what? I also kept the SD card. They didn't even look in the box. I don't see why all these internet soldiers start attacking like it's their job to enforce RS/Return policies.

When someone tells you they will call you back and never do after I give them a week extension that's frustrating. I had store reps, DM's and other people lie to me. At least the company will probably be out of business sometime next year or get bought out because that will be the last time I shop there. The damn store didn't even call me to tell me my Evo was ready. My friend ordered his with them and he also had to call them and go through BS and lies.

It's also frustrating when a manager tells you over the phone to stop by knowing that he will be leaving. Wasting gas, time & energy is what made me keep the SD cards. I could care less and if anybody here wants to ***** about it like they are losing money.

Message to the Mods:

You should BAN trolls for a week like you did me. I made a thread asking a question and people just come in and start problems. I don't start problems on this forum but it's really getting annoying reading threads with pricks saying "do a google search", etc. Obviously these people come in here because they love drama and increasing their post count.

Anyway anybody want a free 8GB SD card? PM me so these internet gangsters/soldiers won't flame you.

[EVO 4G General] christophermx4:
I'm sorry, I'd rather get stuff that I pay for like an honest man. You can keep your stolen SD card. Ripping off Radioshack doesn't hurt anyone in the long run, but you should at least have the decency to return everything - I don't know about you, but I refuse to rob a business cause they dicked me over. Two wrongs never make it right.

My usual response to horrible customer service is to never return to their place of business again. In the long run, that will prove far more detrimental than running off with a $20 SD card.

I do not want to hijack the thread, but what is the deal with the people on the third or fourth EVO? Is it just complaining about small imperfections from the manufacturing? Is it that they want an 03 (whatever that is_ instead of an 02?

I mean okay, I understand the second one - I've probably had at least two of every phone, except my Treo Pro. That thing just sucked. But the EVO is a pretty solid and supported phone (I think).
[EVO 4G General] barbiedollish:
Agreed. I haven't had any hardware problems with my EVO so I'm a very happy camper. As far as the rest of the thread goes, I agree it was wrong to return a physically damaged phone but the whole SD card argument is retarded. Nine times out of ten when you return your phone they make you take your SD card out, give you a refurb, and keep the new one. I've returned a couple of phones for refurbs and I had to hold on to my SD card EVERY TIME.

If it makes you guys feel better I'll go into Radioshack and tell the manager I kept the cards and upload the video to show you guys how much I care. Its not my fault they didn't do their job.

lol, dude everything was provoked because you're a thief. its not RS fault because they didnt check packaging, you stole something with intent, knowing you were keeping it. because of that is why it costs $100 to get a replacement through insurance. and your car is a POS, i can see by the way you act, you probably think you know how to drive because you got a fake ass race car. another reason auto insurance rates are what they are. u strike me as a pro line swerver and texter while driving, lol.

[EVO 4G General] mrmomoman:
No need for the video as it only reinforces your any guilt you might carry. It is not my place to judge but like you also have a light leak issue. Had it after a couple of weeks since its initial release. I have a seidio case and it covers up the problem just fine. I called the Radio Shack store and the manager who probably took to being treated kindly, apologized for my inconvenience and wrote down my phone number and name and promised me a new phone when the updated ones arrive. Mind you I said new. She told me that she didn't want for me to have the same experience twice so she will wait for a new one with updated revisions before she hands it over. She made this offer based on my not wanting anything more than what i paid for and I told her the light leak did not affect the ability to use my phone in any way. All I wanted her to do is to make note of it and call me when she got it in. I have not bugged her or think that she forgot. It does not hinder my ability to use the phone. It does upset me to where I want to keep something from them to "get back" at them. When it comes it comes. Your OP clearly acknowledges that you feel that the 002 is inferior and you will complain to no end in order to get an 003 even at the expense of others having to wait for theirs. Squeaky wheel does get the grease sometimes. You didn't say until someone asked again about another light leak with your replacement. I would understand that more than not liking the fact you received an 002 instead of 003. Life is too short to worry about things like this. If you truly don't have light leak or if its minor then put a case over it and move on. Just let sprint or radio shack notate it and move past this post.

and whomever stated that the OP will not ever get it is 100% correct

His main statements were to brag that he got away with it

who cares

talk about the phone or don't talk at all

I think someone should look him up and notify all the stores in his area what he did and then they can tell him to get lost when he picks up the other phone or they can take out the sd card since he has so many of them
