[Q] Asurion Replacement for HTC Amaze - HTC Amaze 4G

Hey, my HTC amaze has a cracked screen and I was wondering if I file a claim with Asurion are they still going to give me an amaze even though the phone has been discontinued, or will they give me a different one? And if they do give me a different one which will it be? Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.

They will give you an Amaze if they have some in stock otherwise they'd give you something in comparison like the SGS2 or like the One-S etc..

+1. What he said.
I got my Amaze4G as a replacement for my MyTouch4G that I landed on when I fell off a ladder... at the time, they had the Amaze and the Sammy SGSII was also in stock. (I wanted the AMAZE) That was in July 2012.

Asurion replacing my 3D with the E4GT

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

After my 3rd evo I'm kinda done with HTC for a while. Plenty of development activity over there.

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

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?
I'd trade phones with you...

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.
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.

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?

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.

Asurion replacement

I called Asurion for a replacement for an evo 3d. They said they don't have any in stock anymore and they wanted to give me the OG Evo. I told them no, so now they offered the Motorola photon. Should i take that? Has anyone received a better phone?

Only accept equal or better value. Anything less talk with a Supervisor. And if that doesn't work, call another time or another day until you get what you want.

Agreed. I work in this area, just keep asking for someone higher.
Why do people call assuron? If it is hardware defect take it to a coorporate store and get replacement. What was the reason u were asking for a replacement?
To answer your question I wouldn't take it. I would take a epic touch 4g maybe but no photon.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
I took the photon a while back. I was very disappointed.

Correct, IF it's a hardware defect. If the phone is lost, stolen, dropped in water, etc, you have to go through Asurion.

I got a E4GT from them almost 2 months ago, but I hear that they're even backordered too, a user over in those forums reported that he had filed a claim to replace his damaged E4GT & they tried to offer him a Evo 4G Design & he turned it down because its not as close a comparable device for his E4GT, but in all fairness the Photon is comparable to the 3D, but if you're able to somehow get a E4GT then get that.

They offered me the OG too and told me to get it, and wait a few days for the 3D to get in stock, then they'd ship the 3D. I would have taken the photon though.

Any updates as to what asurion is sending out these days? Cracked my screen and don't really want an sgs2...
Sent from my PG86100
I would absolutely take the Photon. It is better than the Epic Touch and any EVO until the LTE EVO. The Photon is one of the best phones to be released.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
As would I... However I don't think they'd be sending us that new stuff.... More than likely if not the 3d then the sgs 2 but hell I'd almost take the old photon over that pos. I have no desire to get an lte phone until they get it near me. Last I heard Columbus Ohio isn't even on the roadmap yet.
Sent from my PG86100
Just tried to see what they were offering.....for me they were offering another 3D as replacement.
Awesome. I think I'm one of the few that doesn't actually want the sgs2. Too big and battery life doesn't compare. I never really saw the speed difference to be that big either

Verizon Tech Support giving away Rezounds

a buddy of mine told me that if you currently own a tbolt and call Verizon Wireless complaining about certain issues, they replace it with a Rezound. Has anyone heard anything about this?
If you get your Thunderbolt replaced for valid insurance purposes, they will replace it with a rezound since most, but not all, Verizon stores are out of Thunderbolts.
Some times, though, you won't be offered a rezound. Rather, you may get offered a LG Revolution... which sucks.
There is a post about it here:

You have to push a little if they don't offer it. We got my wife's Charge replaced with a Rezound last night. Took some prodding, they wanted to offer a Stratosphere or Spectrum or Nexus. When we pushed, they offered the Rezound or Bionic as well.
Just had my Thunderbolt replaced for a broken screen through the insurance of Verizon and I still got a Tbolt for a replacement . Guess they found some more.....

Same here. When I talked to the Rep at Asurion about my phone (sucky data connection) I hinted about the rezoned replacement. He told me that they have plenty of TBs around. Which is fine, I like the TB when it's working, with a good ROM it doesn't really matter what the phone is to me.

I think he's talking about my phone being replaced under the phone insurance program (Asurion). This is my 3rd TB from them so I think it's paid off. It's the first phone I bought insurance on and I'm glad I did. Having to cough up several hundred dollars for a new phone would suck.
Edit: Looks like they are out of refurbs at Asurion. I got a brand spanking new TB yesterday. It works beautifully (for now) I'm going to let it sit stock for a few days to make sure but then Jester's ICS will be on there in no time.

The Rezound. Personal preference, but the big part for me is the SD card. Yes, the Nexus has a slightly larger screen, and is, well, a Nexus device, but overall I just really have liked HTC's devices.

I know this was already answered but I thought I would share my (almost) awesome experience. Went into Big Red last week with my dead bolt. Employee took me through the crap troubleshooting process and set up the replacement order. Come to find out the order was for a GS3. Would have been sad to leave the amazing bolt community but hey, it's a new phone. Anyways, I get the package and low and behold... It's a friggin LG Lucid Went back to Verizon and eventually got another bolt. Just goes to show you never know what these guys will do.

I gotta wait til Feb, but I'm buying the AT&T version off contract. THIS is the "One" I've been waiting for. Lol At least I'll still have my upgrade available to get the next HTC flagship, that will be announced at MWC 2013, when I get my upgrade in August.

[Q] Would you recommend this phone to a loved one?

Hey fellow XDAers! I'm a Galaxy Nexus guy myself. my sister is on AT&T and asked me to recommend a phone. i am trying to keep the price down to the $100 mark. i saw this phone for $100 on contract. i loved my OG EVO and spec'ing this phone against the SGS3 it looks like a win for HTC, plus, the HTC model is newer and Sense IMO is better than TW. i've been out of the loop with HTC progress for a while and just wondered if you were generally pleased with your phone and would recommend it to a family member. this phone will likely never be rooted so the prospect of future (Official OTA) support is pretty important, i know you'd be guessing on that factor...

I never reccomend anything to anyone because that somehow activates some unspoken agreement that you are now their official IT guy if they have any future questions.
Otherwise, I love what I've made my One X+ capable of, however, out of the box, the only thing I would warn a perspective buyer about is the somewhat dreadful battery life.
Tegra 3 is a hog is you don't underclock\ undervolt\ bring cores offline.
