Switching out the One - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Hey guys,
I was just wondering if anyone had actually swapped out the One before the 14-day trial period had ended for another phone on Sprint, and weather there was any kind of upcharge. Do you still pay the 2year contract price for another phone? Just wondering. Thanks in advance guys.

Swaps are straight up, if there is a price difference you pay it. I just did this because my LTE broke and I upgraded [not quite] to the LG OG. Then in like 8 days and the One came out and I simply went back to the origin of purchase and exchanged it, it was $50 more, so I covered that.

Very nice, thanks for the quick response :thumbup: I'm just not liking the One all that much. Personal preferences.

S4. What other phone is there
Sent from the 'One' powered by ViperROM

I swapped my first HTC One because of the back/home button issue. I tried the Galaxy S4 for a day and returned it. I liked the HTC One better so got another HTC One and now no 4G LTE. As long us your under the 14 days you can return or swap the phone.

Went to Sprint to swap out the One for same model due to the build issues and they won't let me without paying a 35 restocking fee

That's the price you pay for its greatness. Lol. And I can't wait to get the s4 now, I came from the s3 and just don't like the One. Idk why, just don't.

If its a legitimate issue, there shouldn't be a charge.. I took mine in the day i got it, because of the slightest gap on the top.
We opened another one, it was much worse. We opened a second one, and the top looked good, but the bottom was jacked up. So I'm just living with the slight gap, I'm the only person that would notice it anyways..
But we opened two others, and i ended up just taking back the one i had from the git go. They weren't going to ask for any money, and didnt when we unboxed two others.

The reason you like Samsung is because you had one before. I had a HTC before and I think people become loyal to a brand that they had good experience with before. I loved my EVO until it broke after three years. I had to go with HTC when I saw the One. If HTC didn't have the One I probably would go with Samsung S4.

Nexus S Backcover

Is it possible to get replacement backcovers for the Nexus S? A buddy of mine that works at Google swapped his Android backcover for my retail one. But I also want the normal one as well.

Me too. I've been searching around Google, but nothing yet. Today for my N1, I bought a battery cover for $21 on True Supplier, so I'm sure they'll eventually pop up.
I'd prefer the one with the little androids all over it I think.

HTC gave me a free one for saying my lens thing cracked. They were usually $30 oem. I think there's quite a bit more to the build of the ns back though. It's like half the phone! You could pretty much refurbish the device to new with one. hehe
Wow. I just got a flood of PMs asking to trade my back cover. -_-
Only if you guys throw in cash.
the phone is pratically brand new, it's just been a couple of weeks at best.
give it a couple of months, and the market will be full of selections to choose from, just like whent he Galaxy S started, there was barely any accessories for it.
Now every website you go to, it's flooded with all kind of parts & accessories for the SGS.
I'll pay the monies! I wants the precious!

Hopefully they won't announce Nexus 5 just after I bought Nexus 4.

Insurance coverage

What insurance is everyone going to get for their One?
I preordered at Best Buy and it seems like their protection plan is much better than Sprint's insurance.

Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app
Best Buy's protection plan is very nice, and right for the money. However, I'm in a different boat since I have a SERO-P account. I will need to stick with Sprint's TEP, which isn't a bad plan either. Just a little more expensive over time, and a little more of a headache getting what you need when your device is screwy. I've had TEP for at least 5 years now, and I've hardly ever used it, which is usually my argument with Sprint when I have to call them for a problem with the phone. But if something is wrong with it, I can usually take it into a Sprint store and walk out with a new one on it's way to my house next day. It's the phone support that's gotten worse over the years.
Best Buys insurance plan does not cover the phone being lost or stolen.

how dumb am i for trading my htc one :(

how stupid am i for trading my htc one for the nexus 4. there was nothing wrong with the htc but as of late i have enjoyed experimenting with different phones.

nothing i can do now i guess i just hope this phone stays relevant....DONT TRADE YOUR HTC
I am sorry to hear that, mate. There's nothing wrong trying different devices, but I'd never trade up my HTC One. It took me days of research and I realized that the One is the best device for me.

Man thats foolish, on the other hand if it would be the other way around you would have been so glad you traded your nexus 4 for a htc one. i know i would be.
I traded mine for a S4. That lasted 1 week and I traded back for a other One. I've had a lot of different phones to test and none have that feel like my HTC.
The S4 was nice but Touchwiz is not a well coded interface. Camera is over rated on the S4 and was my main reason for trading. It's not that much of an improvement over the Note 2 sensor.

Just got a new HTC One last night after selling my BB Z10 after a couple weeks (the BB really was nice but it has major issues with Contacts management & sync w/Gmail-Google Apps).
Anyway loving this One but I'm keeping my Note 2 because it's a fantastic phone as well; I have a cheap secondary tablet plan on a separate SIM so the Note 2 is now more like a mini-tablet.
While setting up the One today I ran thru all the test for defective sensors etc, and happily everything works. Once I scraped off the excess glue and other rough edges, the thing is now perfect
Not a recommend trade IMO.

The Nexus 4 is a great device, but I hope you got some cash on top of it for your One. To be completely honest, I really love the HTC One, but I missed the Nexus 4 so much that I just bought a white one with a white bumper and a wireless charging orb. You are only dumb to have done this if you didn't get any cash on top bro.
I will trade you a very good condition HTC Inspire 4g for your nexus 4 if you want!

Thank god theres actually makes sense. It's cost effective to do. Even though it's more like renting a phone which is ok to me. No extra monthly costs? Yes please. Thank you sprint.

is it really cost effective tho? like i'm looking at it and how much I pay, (like 75 a month with insurance after discounts and taxes) thats about 900 a year then u add on their 649 for a fone, it would be worth it if u pay that much for a fone but geting it from CL or EB and it actually being yours to keep might be a bit better, i can actually sale my fone for 250+

and my question after how long unitl you actually own the fone, is it another yeah of this plan, cuz if so, you'd be better off buying it

Compared to everyone else, yes is a good deal. But I see what you're saying here. You end up paying more for the phone...but at least there's more choices for the consumer which is always a good thing.

I prefer T-Mobile it's a bit more but you factor in there is no contract you can end anytime and there's no ETF you only pay the amount remaining for the cost of the phone. I still think Sprint will lock you into a 2 year with $350 prorated ETF on top of paying off for your device all the while that if you do upgrade you hand that device back to them in a year.
Also, this program may not be available to everyone.
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
T-mobile's jump plan is slightly better because you're allowed to upgrade every 6 months, which I'm sure plenty of you guys on XDA know a lot of phones get released every 6 months. Also with the $10 monthly Jump fee, it includes insurance.
T Mobile is also contract free and I haven't read anything about Sprint heading in that direction.

+1 for Woodstock/Winchester/Warrenton. I have LTE in those areas with Sprint. None of those areas have T-Mo LTE......yet any who.

If Sprint comes out with no contract plans with the "one up" program, then yes, it's a good deal. But if you're still stuck to a 2 year contract, what's the point?
It is one up, and a million down.
