Anyone here gonna get the E3D without the upgrade plan besides me? I used my upgrade in order to get my evo last year and i think imma just buy the E3D full price and sell my old evo. So that next year when the new awesome phone comes out i can upgrade for that!
Yes, yes I am - without hesitation.
So am I. I last used an upgrade for a palm pre in jan 2010. I went full price on my evo in June and I'm going full price again because my contact expires in november.
I think I am going to wait on this one. No doubt the EVO 3D will be an awesome phone, but I don't feel the need to go out and get one on launch day like I did with the EVO and the Palm Pre before that. I am still very happy with my original EVO even though the next generation of phones is starting to come out.

I'm pretty sure we can still upgrade after 1 year, the only difference being you get a $100 subsidy instead of $200.

x2, Evo is still running strong and it does everything I need it to. Plus I'm not about to pay 400-500 dollars for a new phone since I'm still under contract.
I used my upgrade last June when EVO came out, and I will become a silver premier effective 4/1, which is not eligible for a new line discount upgrade after 12-month service anymore (only premier gold can upgrade at a discounted price).
Just spoke with a Sprint rep, he said that I can change my plan to $89.99 before 6/1, which is my 12-month upgrade eligibility point, then I will become a gold premier automatically and get a discounted upgrade. Changing plan will not reset the 2-year agreement, so I can upgrade my EVO on 6/1 after changing the plan in May. Of course if EVO 3D comes out before 6/1, I'll be sad...
Edit: Correction - it looks like I need to stay with $89.99+ plan with at least 3 months, which means I need to change my plan now...
I thought u had to be on that for three months?

Yeah, I just saw that... that rep must have forgotten to mention that. darn it.
Well, the only way is to change the plan now, so that it becomes ~3 months by the time my 12-month point comes...
I'll just use my upgrade every year as I will have premier gold for being a 10yr sprint customer
My yearly upgrade (Premier Gold) is in Feb, and last year I used it (without thinking) on the Hero, then three months later the Evo comes out, and the Hero is old news.
I specifically bought my Evo used knowing that the new phones would be released this spring/summer.
So yeah, certainly going to use my upgrade this June.
Guys, here's a great hint: Use wirefly.com to buy it. You can get a full discount even when you're not eligible for an upgrade
The catch? They charge you a $200 ETF on top of Sprint's ETF. BUT, even with wirefly's own ETF, the phone would still cost less than full price.
Not worth it to have a second contract with wirefly.

Yeah, looks like I'm either going to have to buy it outright, or use the $75 discount for one-year upgrades.
I just labeled an envelope titled Evo 3d. Assuming it drops in roughly 12 weeks, and that it will be about 500 bucks. That's 41 bucks a week in the envelope, and by june, ill be buying an Evo 3d.

sweet!! ......
If we change now to $89.99 plan to get the Premier Gold to get the 12 mo. upgrade, is there something stopping us from dropping the plan back down to $69.99 after the upgrade? I def don't need a bigger plan, I probably use less than 50 min a month with the free mobile to mobile.
I'm going to have to wait until it's released to employees.... If Sprint follows the same guidelines that they did for the original EVO, probably not until November or so.
Hey everyone, I realize this thread is VERY common but I have a good question. I have a line that I upgraded in March and received $60 off my bill. I DID NOT use the phone upgrade though. Come April 1st will I lose this upgrade for the unsubsidized phone or can I wait for the EVO 3D and use it then?
Danke!
how ong have you been a customer? how much are you paying for your plan?
You'll still have your full upgrade after april 1st, after you use it then you are boned for two years, if your payment amount isn't great enough. Got that from a sprint rep. Hope this helps.
Edit: just talked to sprint and sad to say, after april first, you will revert to a two year upgrade. Sucks!

I talked to a sprint rep on the phone (someone in India) and basically told her that if they didn't give me the upgrade I would leave sprint for AT&T. I had AT&T before, no problem going back to them if they do a bait and switch on me. If you're polite and thoughtful, they probably will help you.
They transferred me to an American woman (probably because she was more experienced to handle people cancelling, most likely was retention), and she was able to make sure my upgrade would be transferred over. If it doesn't happen tomorrow, I'm switching carriers

I think that I'm going to call and try that. I have been with sprint for a while, not ten years but about 5, and I have waited on my upgrade since Nov for a better device to come out. I don't want to cancel and don't want to play the add a line/cancel a line game so I will try this. Thanks

looks like were all hearing mixed things....
i just got off the phone with sprint (india) and after 15 minutes and lots of hold, we came to the conclusion that while i am currently sprint premier, i will only qualify for premier silver after tomorrow.... normally that means every year i get $75 for an upgrade, and $150 every 22 months
but since i will be eligible for an upgrade (in june) under current premier qualifications, i will NOT lose that upgrade come evo 3d time.... but that AFTER i upgrade this time, i will change over to the new color system, and will only be eligible for $75 in june 2012, and $150 in april 2013.
i hope this helps people understand the situations
tl;dr : current premier upgrade = youll retain until after your next upgrade , then becomes silver or gold premier
Yes...there are many conflicting stories...i too am in the same situation. Basically my friend and sprint told me to upgrade and then return the upgrade and go back to my old phone. He told me that usually it will reset you back to eligible. I'm not sure if its going to work but if not I can always raise hell All who are eligible now and got word that you will "retain" eligibility please post your results after April 1. I will update once i return the phone.

I was told that I would lose my early upgrade on April 1st, so I would have to wait until my 2 yrs is up in November in order to get the discount.
i was told today by a sprint rep, That you shouldn't lose your upgrade. The change will start after u upgrade, then the two year or one year thing should start.
I received a letter from Sprint. I sent an email asking about the change and how long I've been with the company. I don't have the letter on my phone so I can't post it but paraphrasing it said that as of now (beginning of March when I got the letter) I would be eligible for a full upgrade June 1 (used an upgrade on my evo on launch day 6/4/2010). As of April 1 I would be reverted to premier silver status and would no longer be eligible for an upgrade. As of September 1 of this year I will reach 10 years with sprint and be switched to premier gold and receive yearly upgrades. When the pre-order date for the evo 3d is announced I'm going to try and get that changed. As of now though, according to the letter, I'm not eligible till 9/1.
It definitely seems that people are getting conflicting information. The letter I received is the same information that someone on the evo forum who works for sprint retentions gave.

The whole new Sprint Premiere thing is a little out in left field if you ask me. But it is much better than what Verizon is doing to everyone.
As for my upgrade I have been holding off on my upgrade since Oct 2010.
So I am sitting on a 150.00 credit to my Evo 3d.
My poor Evo 4g will feel so alone.
Which reminds me I need to goto sprint today and yell at them about my LG Optimus I put on my plan recently. (They didn't give me the line transfer credit, nor my 100.00 mail in rebate for the phone.)
Wonder why there would be different responses? Don't all of the sprint reps get the same info? Got a different response, myself, between the first day of ctia and when I posted...
Sent from my twopointthree heroc
I actually received a response back from my e-mail as well as a phone call from a an Account Services Specialist from Sprint and they offered to extend the upgrade until my contract ends. They definitely confirmed though that if you were Premier Silver before, you will lose the early upgrade until you qualify for Premier Gold.
I was eligible april 1st and thats when the premier program changed so I lost my upgrade and so I called sprint yesterday about my status and after 5 mins they agreed to change my status within 24 hours... they changed my upgrade status in less than 3 hours... but after i get the 3d i'm screwed for 22 months... but I'm getting the best buy buy back program so I will get like $300 or so back when i trade in to make up for not being able to upgrade yearly then I can just buy a new phone at regular price...
I just checked my account and I'm good to upgrade in Nov. I like what I see with the 3d but I think I'm going to hold out for the next big thing. Funny thing is my wifes line (secondary) got upgraded back in Oct thru wirefly but on the sprint site it still shows her eligible for an upgrade. We live in SD so when we got evos we had to change our numbers to a different state to activate them. I wonder if that eligibility is false. Lol I'm going to try to get her the 3d with it to see what happens.

My upgrade was in Feb and I still havent used it because I'm waiting for the Evo 3D. I was told that I would lose it after April 1st, but I asked to speak to a surpervisor because I was suppose to be Gold anyways because my plan was always over $89.99. So once they looked at my account they changed me to Gold and put my upgrade for april 1. I was happy. I also called the sales people to change the website to reflect my upgrade and they did. Anyone of yall can be Gold member by staying on a plan over $89.99 for 3 months. if you do it now then you can get the Evo 3D by June. If the plan u have now is $69.99 call them and they can change it to a plan over $89.99 so you can get the upgrade in time. The customer rep I spoke to looked at my account and I've had the simply everything plan for months. It was only in March that I went down to $69.99. So that put me to the silver premier. So what they did is back dated it to reflect that March was also Simply everything. They helped me big time cuz I didnt want to lose my upgrade. Call and do the same. I always tell them to note the account and I even talk to a supervisor because I tell them that the story changes everytime I speak to someone different. I hope this info helps all of yall who lost their upgrade but I fought to keep mine. To be a Gold member just stay on a plan over $89.99 for 3 months.
add me to the list.
in January it said "150$ OFF on May 1st, 2011."
now..."75$ OFF on May 1st, 2011, 150$ off on March 1st, 2012"

nope.... only if you had a note on your account about it, or if you had your upgrade before april 1st.
I need to start hearing some possible options since it looks like next month will be the release date.
I joined Sprint last year when the Evo released.
What would you guys do if you wanted the EVO 3D?
Thanks
Did you check your upgrade eligibility on https://manage.sprintpcs.com/specialoffers/RebateWelcome.do
Like you, I joined sprint last year on the launch day of the EVO4G at the $69.99 plan. This site says I am eligible for a full upgrade for the phone on my account. Interestingly enough it says at the bottom this program ends June 4th.

i have the same thing. I got the evo 4g at launch. up until april 1st the system said that I had a $150 credit avalible june 1st 2011. now it says I have a $75 credit june 1st and a full credit 4-1-12! All I did was call sprint telesales (they are the only ones that can do this) I very polity asked if I could have my upgrade back because I would like to get the evo 3D. they put me on hold, when they came back they said that I could get my upgrade back and that I needed to call on june first because that is when my account resets. She also said that she was making notes in my account to make this easy when I called back. i asked her to send me an email confirming this conversation. I got a email that had her specialist id# team name and date (dont think i need it but
I have had problem with sprint in the past)
So basically if you have a $75 credit right now you can call sprint telesales (888-253-1315) and ask for your $150 credit back. Mentioning the evo 3d may or may not help, but the rep did talk about the evo 3d for a second with me when I noted I wanted to get one.
Just got my upgrade back to $150..telesales didn't help me they routed my call to account services...all I did was act dumb about not knowing about the premier changes. I told him I had a full upgrade in March and all of a sudden my full upgrade was gone...so he went through all the details about the changes...and then reset my account thus giving me back my full upgrade oh yeah and made sure I got a email of the conversation

If I wanted it? I do. It will release next month. I will be absolutely flabbergasted if it doesn't come out on June 3rd (also my birthday). That would be a deviation from their tradition of releasing phones on fridays, big-deal phones on the first friday of june and also neglect to honor the Evo4G's anniversary(ish)...
The Evo really was a big deal for Sprint, just as the Evo3D is....does anyone remember Sprint's phone selection prior to the Evo4G? Quirky at best for dumbphones, random (crap) at best for smartphones....the hero or the moment or a BB....ick....and the hero--while a great phone--was a fluke.
So what am I doing? I will be trading in my Evo4G for $180 at Radioshack, I called Sprint and got my upgrade turned back into full (from $75) and I reserved a phone at Radioshack...so I will most likely be walking into Radioshack at 5am on June 3rd and likely walking out at 5:30am on with $25 in my left hand and the best smartphone to date in my right hand--as I was told (when I posed this exact question) by the RS sales rep who agreed, whose manager agreed and whose district manager agreed that they would all be shocked if it didn't come out on June 3rd....none of us know better, it just fits a pattern...and for the Evo a new tradition.
That's what I'd do.
if ur like me, i need an upgrade every yr
all u have to do is stick with a plan tht is $89.99 and up to become a gold member and receive a yrly upgrade. Next yr the Evo 3D will be a dinosaur and so I rather be a gold member than have to upgrade evey 2 yrs. I lost my upgrade in feb with the new changes but got it back cuz they made a mistake and put me as a silver member. I've been on the everything plan for months and tht qualifies me to be a gold member. i since changed my plan to the everything data 900 $89.99...if i go any less than tht then i'll be a silver member again! no waaaay!
before the evo phone came out, The touch pro 2 was a great phone but wasnt an android phone but the screen was big.

If you plan on upgrading every year then it should pay to go with the higher plan as it should run less then purchasing a new phone at full retail once a year.
Luckily I have been with Sprint over 10 years so I qualify for gold otherwise I would never be able to convince my wife to spend more money on our cell phone bill.
Being able to deal with Sprint for over 10 years, I totally feel like I deserve the yearly upgrade! I have been on the phone for countless number of hours over the years with some of the worst customer service on the planet and had some of the most stressful phone calls with them.
As a long time customer, I must say they customer service has improved more then words can describe from where it was back in the day......
I'm new to Sprint.. Got the original EVO on launch and was wondering, what if I canceled my account, pay the ETF, and open another account?
You guys are having a lot of luck resetting your credit to $150. I spoke to supervisors and a whole slew of reps without any luck.
I'm am going to do this:

Etf is only $120, I'll open a new acct, switch numbers, then cancel the old one and sell my evo 4g. In the end, it might turn out to be a free phone.

A simpler thing to do would just add a new line then cancel the old one. Why go through to trouble of opening a whole new account.
Wouldn't it be much easier/cheaper to sell our Evos on Ebay for around $250 then buy the Evo 3D from Sprint for $425 (Assuming the Evo 3D is $500 minus the $75 rebate)? This all varies depending on the price of the Evo 3D and how much you can sell your Evo in Ebay.

It says June 1st $75 and 4/1/12 $150.
I am a little confused though. I am one year into my 2 year commitment. If i were to use this "upgrade" from Sprint, Would I be adding 2 years making it a 3 year commitment.
Not sure I want to to commit that long. Any idea what the outright price of the phone will be? Noticed you could also trade in my Evo for $150 account credit.

The upgrade pricing is for signing a new 2yr contract which takes the place of your current contract so you would be on a new 2yr contract, not 3yr.
They have a bunch of different options when signing a new contract like if are premier silver and only a year into your contract you can sign a new 1yr and get $25 off a new phone, or a new 2 yr and get $75 off a new phone (which you will be eligible for on 6/1). After your contract expires (4/1/2012) and you are eligible for a full upgrade you can get $75 off with a new 1yr and $150 off with a new 2yr contract.
The problem is that new phones have discounts and rebates which you're only eligible for with a full upgrade. As with the EVO the phone was $550 I believe w/ $100 mail-in-rebate, $150 upgrade, and it's $200 purchase price that comes to $450. The other $100 was an instant rebate that sprint gives you and I'm almost positive that you only get that rebate with the full upgrade price. I'm even pretty sure you're not eligible for the mail-in-rebate so the difference between the 1yr and 2yr upgrades is really about $275 rather than just the difference between $75 and $150. Someone correct me if I am wrong but I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

You would get the EVO 3d for the discounted price on the new line.
Now what can I do I have had the Evo since October and my upgrade was supposed to be this year but got it anyways the whole first month I exchanged it, all different problems. 3 times and now I have a white Evo with the same dust problems and light leak and a few dings on the top right any suggestions?
Sprint is starting to piss me off, they're trying to screw me out of my yearly upgrade and talking to customer service is a complete waste of time. Now I'm trying to post a question to sprints message board and this is the second night in a row it has gone down for maintenance at the very moment I try to post my question.... and now it's back up five minutes later.
Google 'customer service hall of shame' and you'll see Sprint's been number one for three or four years now.
/end rant
just had to get that off my chest
Okay quick question about the HTC EVO 3D upgrade. So when I text the number (I can't remember the number lol) with the word "upgrade" It tells me I'm not eligible until 5/1/2012. However, at my local radioshack, the rep informed me that I'm eligible for an upgrade on my line, and I could get the EVO 3D for $199 (also trade in my old EVO) Now, I'm just a little bit confused..how am I elgible for an upgrade now? Also, if I did upgrade, that would extend my contract meaning I won't be able to upgrade until 2013, right? Oh, and I heard about people talking about manual overide, what is that? Thanks sorry just a little bit confused.
the number is 1311. it's probably nest to check online or contact sprint and ask when your upgrade is. if you can get upgrade now, be sure to ask for a loyalty credit. it's at most $70 applied to your line for extending contract for two years. that is if you're planning on upgrading anyways.

Okay and you know anything about manual override
You will be able to upgrade after one year....2012. If you renew your contract for two more years again. Another great perk with Sprint....
Okay I'm so sorry for my noobness, but am I getting this right. I want to upgrade next year (actually may of next year is my 22 months mark) So let's says I got an Evo 3D its 199 with the 2-year contract. Meaning that I won't be able to upgrade until 2013. But I could request a manual override so I can upgrade next year? Lol once again sorry for so many questions...I just like to upgrade yearly as suppose to two year.
afaik, the override was for people who previously had premiere gold til they changed the requirements. they were letting people get their year upgrade that they were supposed to as if they were on gold. if you upgrade now, you can either upgrade again next year or two years from now depending on your status with them, premiere gold is every year I think. idk about silver

Sprint has something called a tier override going right now til July 31st. My fiance wasn't eligible til Dec but we got her a Nexus S 4g yesterday for $99. I won't be up for upgrade til June 2012 but rep at store said he could do the tier override on mine and I could get an EVO 3D for $50 (after my EVO 4G trade-in). I told him I would think about it. I'll be going in today to pull the trigger on that LOL!
Okay..thanks I think I understand a little better. My only conodrum is that I want to get the Evo 3D, but I don't want to wait until 2013 to get another phone lol haha
Hey guys, got a question... Last June, my dad also got a 3D, under the family business account. (Which I'm not under. LOL) yesterday he called Sprint to ask what his upgrade date was, since he was told last year, that he can upgrade his phone once every year. Guess he had also checked a week ago and it said he was eligible as of June this year. Well, the rep told him yesterday there were changes to the policy, and business lines only get upgrades every 20 months which would mean April of 2013. They ended up telling him he's not due til June of 2013, which would be 22 months.
What the hell? On top of that, can't he still get one more upgrade since his original contract was only for a year and before the policy Change?
Thanks guys!

Well,guess that's the case, but turns out, It's a corporate account, and he still gets yearly upgrades. On top of that, my mom convinced the rep to move the date to today! Looks like me and my dad will be picking up new LTEvos!
