Exchanging for the 3vo - HTC EVO 3D

Sorry if I posted on the wrong thread.
I upgraded to the 3d first and decided to give the photon a try but somehow I am missing the 3vo. The sales rep told me that if I wanted to go back to the 3d she was going to charge me $35, is there a way to waive this fee?

If there are defectives with the photon then restocking fee should be waived.

Well I think that the call quallity is lower than on the 3vo, idk if that counts?

Do some research about known issues with the Photon and see if you are affected.

You could try calling retentions and see what they can do for you.

Ready to upgrade but...

I went to.the Sprint store to see what can I do to get the 3d for 200 and not for the full price so they told me that I need to renew my contract (which I did on December) and they'll give me $150 for my old EVO 4g so ill getting the 3d for just $50 dollars!! What u guys think?

Airave use!!

Can I still use my airave even thoo I cancelled the number for it
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
seriously? the airave has to be subdivision...just like everything else.
The answer is no since the air rave kit has to be on an active line of service on your sprint account just like a cell phone.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Why would you cancel the number?....
It's 4.99 a month for the service but you can get that fee waived if you call in to retentions and complain/threaten to cancel. Either way it's worth having if your coverage sucks because they work really well.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Yea its cuz I moved to a different apartment and I get full bars on everything even 4g, So I don't really need the airave no more, but wanted to know if I actually needed the other line to be able to use the airave LOL but now I know thanks ppl

Return phone and get photon?

So I purchased a Samsung Conquer for my son which is on special for free online. Is it possible to cancel the line and then go to Best Buy and get the Photon? I am still within my 15days. Is there a way to avoid the damn 36$ restock fee? Thanks.

Sprint employees normally can't buy new phones right away.
OP - you can have mine. I'm on the DWL, but I still haven't heard from my store. I already got one at Wal-mart last Tuesday.

I work for a company that has a Sprint account and I ordered my EVO LTE the day it was released.
I have SERO-P, and ordered mine the first day they were available after the pre-order. Not sure if that's relevant or not...
My wife used to work for sprint. Employess have to wait a few months so regular customers have first dibs. It is unknown exactly when the Evo LTE will launch for employee accounts. My wife and I are on SERO-P, which is not an employee account, thus i was able to get the phone on last Saturday's official launch...

I'll up this to $55
that's what happens with a 3rd place carrier with a cdma network. tmobile phones don't lose value this quickly even though they are in 4th place because they use GSM.
There's a company out there called Rad Tech that will buy your phone for a good deal. Better than 50 bucks. I had to buy a replacement phone real quick and they were selling the Evo 4g for 128. So I can imagine they will probably sell this phone for 189 or so.
I was more or less curious of what this 600 dollar phone was worth a year and a half later..needless to say i stand here in disgust thinking about the 550 dollar depreciation

I wonder if the OG is worth more . . . .
EDIT: Nope, both the OG and the 3D are worth less than $10 according to WalMart. Here's how much it says the Jewel is worth:

HAHAHAHAHAH!!! Now that you put it that way. This is beyond sad and just goes to show you that the market is, one, saturated with too many phones and two a blatant rip off to charge so much for tech.
I do find this very interesting. Looks like I'm going to continue buying my phone off Ebay or Swappa.
