Sprint early upgrades - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Any one heard of corporate stores doing early upgrades this year for premier members like they did last year in December

Usually they want a early upgrade fee...it is based on how many months are left on our contract... its resonable ....usually

Last year it was a special promotion. Early upgrades,no strings attached. Got two iPhones without any extra buy out charge. Both lines had 6 months left.

I just did an early (3-1-2013) for one of my lines. Had to pay $50 bucks, plus give them my Google Nexus Phone (which they gave me $28 for it) and I bought the S3, out the door $264. I was going to buy a new/used one on CL for $400, so that was a killer deal to me....btw I just did it yesterday adn I do have a biz account

The giving them your phone part is the real kick in the nuts. To Hell with that.
You pay the early upgrade fee to make up for the remainder of the subsidy and still have to give the phone up, they are smoking some good crack.

thats how i got this phone.. i had the evo 3d.. i had 1 year left on my 2 year contract.. it cost me 150$ for the early upgrade and 200$ plus tx for the phone... then i sold my evo 3d on craislist for 130$.. so it cost me 150$ to upgrade 1 year early.. i didnt have to give them my other phone at all.. i sold that **it!!:good: ima do another early upgrade if i can when the next evo comes out in the summer i need a new phone every year.. i get bored fast plus i need that newest toy

That was a special offer for a month or two . Now you have to give up your old phone. And like I said earlier, F that

EVO 3d how to get a upgrade in contract

Ok, so I have been on Sprint now for about 3 months now, I want a EVO 3d bad since sense 3.0 isn't very smooth on my EVO 4G. How would I go about with talking Sprint to let me upgrade for $200? Since I have not been with them for that long.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
well since u have been with them for more than 30 days you have nothing to leverage with. u have to wait or open a new line
I guess I will have to look around on amazon. Soon I will be rocking that wonder of a phone.

why on earth would you deserve another discount you just got one 3 months ago.
sell your phone on ebay and put it towards a new phone.

To even attempt to get an early upgrade, you need to be at least 6 months into your contract.

If your wife has been with sprint for 10 years then she might be able to get the EVO 3d for you haha.

EVO 3D trade in value?!

Wow, Sprint really nuked their trade-in program. I was considering buying an EVO 4G LTE at full price (I am not up for an upgrade yet) in exchange for trading in my EVO 3D. But they are only giving $90 for the 3D! Wow. I traded in my EVO for $200 when I got the 3D. Did they gut the program?
I also considered Radio Shack. I know that last year they were also taking $200 for the EVO. But they are only offering $13! Insane.
It's valued for $120 at radioshack

Should've bought your phone from bestbuy. They have the best buyback.
Up to 1 year you can get 40% back from price before carrier discounts (that's $280) and 30% back after one year.
So I'm planning on using my wife's upgrade on the Evo LTE which will be -$200 but then selling the phone back so I get +$280, ending up with $80 of money I can spend on whatever I want.
I basically got $80 for buying the Evo 3D...

When I traded in my OG Evo for the 3D on 7/23/2011, they were giving $150.00 since they were still selling them at the time and were going to sell for the immediate future. Since the Evo 3D is already EOL for Sprint, they really don't need them so they are priced low.
The 3Ds are still selling on Ebay for $150.00+.

$150 is probably what I got, not $200. I am just misremembering.
i can't post links yet, but check the best buy mobile phone page & look up their buy-back program. It looks like you could get around $100 from Best Buy even if you didn't buy it from them originally...

Its better to sell this phone solo than Sprint buyback.
$150 is a decent rate for a stock, great condition 3D,
+$$ with any extra hardware (SD/Cases/MHL).

Just sold my 3D for 150 and that was mint condition. Tried getting 185. People were offering like 100. Had it on craigslist and a few other places for weeks. Had one offer for 150 initially but turned down cause figured I would get more. Should have taken it and saved time. Oh well. 150 was best I could get.

best buy
2nd for buying it from Best Buy. Buyback program is quite handy for those who would upgrade often. I can get at least 150 for mine and I've had it since launch.
Feh, I don't get an upgrade until November. Might as well wait for ICS.
I think it's just this phone. It wasn't that big of a hit and the value on it isn't really good. There are Evo 4G's selling on CL around here for just as much as the 3D's are. When I sold mine I wasn't getting any offers more than like $140 or so because that's what everyone else around here was selling em for.

How much is the buy back program?..I think I heard somewhere it was ~$80?
Thinking about about getting it on the Evo LTE.

My contract was up April 2013, but like others I called sprint and paid $115(Which will be on next months bill) to move my upgrade date to May so I can get the phone...I didnt think it would work but it did!

This phone is going to be amazing man no worries at all.
im coming! pre ordered already!
I'll be jumping ship, however I will keep my Evo 3D since it was my first Android phone =p
Luckily, I'm in a line with the girlfriend but her mother's Verizon contract is ending and she asked her if she could join us in our family plan. Then my genius set in. I told her she could take my place on the contact and I'll be "transferring" just the phone number onto a new contract by myself to take advantage of the 199 price (plus I get a 20% discount because of the company I work for) so in the end I'll be paying a cheaper monthly bill and my gf will be able to help her mom and Sprint gets another contact up. Win-win-win.
EDIT: Does anyone know if the phones will be available in store on launch day? The reason I ask is because I'm unable to predorder (due to Sprint having to transfer my phone # out and I have to give them proof of my employment for the discount).

Haha then what's with the pre-ordering hype when you can pick one up at the store usually faster than you get it shipped (and can make sure it has no dead pixels, etc.)
It is a shame I wont be keeping my phone number but eh, no big deal when I get an awesome phone for such a good price.
Definitely making the jump I got my 3D from a friend moving overseas for practically nothing. So my upgrade is fully intact from my OG EVO. It will be a welcome edition to my Evo family of phones.
I ordered two (mine and my girls).
yup...girlfriend gets the 3d. I preordered the LTE

Have your friend buy out your Mom's line rather than cancel as that'll give you (your buddy) an upgrade on that line and he can get a new phone and keep paying you.

One yearly upgrade has been extended to all those affected by change, but only on main line. They have a 20 month cycle for upgrades now. My theory os ir has something to do with iPhone being more available to customers because this change went into effect shortly before launch un September.

Getting my EVO on Sat, Sept 1...Where should I purchase?

It's been a long grueling last year with my OG Evo and it's time to part ways. I've always been and HTC supporter and I will continue to support their product. I will be getting an EVO LTE but paying the full $199 just seems outlandish especially now that ATT and T-Mobile dropped the One X to $99.99. I have some other options rather than buying directly from Sprint but I wanted to know other people's experience. Radioshack and Wirefly will ship one to my house, FedEx next day (which means I wouldn't get it till Tuesday), for $149.99 even. I was wanting to know any drawbacks to purchasing from these two providers rather than going through Sprint. I do have full insurance through Asurion so accidental damage isn't my concern but more of what happens if there is a manufactures defect? Also, anybody heard any news of Sprint reducing the price so they can compete? I would hate to pay $199 and then have Sprint drop it to $99 in the next month or so.
I could also go to Best Buy and get it for $149.99. I think this is going to be my first option considering my patience with my OG is running really thin. I am also selling my great condition OG with a ton of stuff so if anyone want to shoot me an offer, I would definitely think about it before posting on eBay.
It's too bad you didn't get it last week bestbuy had it for $99 for a week. I just got mine this pay Friday paid $104 out the door

Ya I just checked and it is only for brand new lines. I need to upgrade so it would be $99 which isn't bad. I may just have to do that. I may walk in to best buy and see if they will honor last weeks price because I'm technically not eligible until Sept 1st and I've tried everything to get my date pushed up. Once again I am upgrading and not starting a new line or contract. The prices vary drastically.
Amazon wireless will have the best deal. No tax.

I think that the most important part for you is to get evo with 1.12 hboot. If you go to the big stores or sprint corporate store you may not find it. You need to go to small stores that sell sprint phones, that way you may get lucky.

Yah absolutely. The problem is small stores that sell Sprint have to abide by Sprint's pricing. I fell like if I order one online, it will come boxed and I can do whatever from there. I'm sure there will be a LazyPanda updated for 1.15 but who knows when. Having radio S-OFF isn't the biggest deal to me as long as I can get root. It sucks not being able to sideload firmware but what are you going to do about HTC and their bootloaders. I think I'm going to go through Amazon. It seems to be the only place to get the upgrade price of $99.99.

Ya I just checked and it is only for brand new lines. I need to upgrade so it would be $99 which isn't bad. I may just have to do that. I may walk in to best buy and see if they will honor last weeks price because I'm technically not eligible until Sept 1st and I've tried everything to get my date pushed up. Once again I am upgrading and not starting a new line or contract. The prices vary drastically.

So get a new line and shutdown the old one. You'll get it for $99 then.

I'm on a family plan. How does that actually work? Would I have to get a new number?

Yes to a new number. Sucks a little but saves some money.

If you have a Sam's Club membership, it's $98.
