Receiving my third HTC sensation..

Hey guys, the first I one I had was outstanding, loved it, dropped it face down, shattered the screen. Called insurance, paid the 130.00 or whatever, got a new one. The new one comes in an unmarked box, etc, 4gig SD card, the new one came w/ an 8.. Anyway Im sure its a refurb. The phone is horrible, non responsive, locks up, gets wicked hot, turns itself off, I cant unlock the screen half the time, the home button takes screen shots and I have to take the battery out to get it to reset.. Anyway called tmobile, they said they wouldn't do shit about it, I said I have my CC ready, I want to buy out my contract (only 200 bucks) she said "hold on" long story short, I have a brand new one on the way. I've been with them since they were suncom, back in the late 90s. I was super pissed off that they wouldn't do anything. The hard reset and calibrations didnt do crap. Just FYI if anyone has a similar prob.

tell you what man if they make a phone condom for the sensaation I would definately get it. I have a T-Mobile HD2 and I have dropped it so many times and it keeps on ticking.....phone condom for the win for sure... and my phone still looks BRAND NEW......

^LOL yeah the G2X w/ the HDMI is an awesome concept.. too bad it just sucked lol..


And I agree, there are very few cases for the sensation. I had an HD2 running android and loved it... I got a body glove hard case w/ a belt clip thing, I clip it to the inside of my pocket, seems to be doing better lol. Havent dropped this one yet.

That's what I always hated about having to make insurance/warranty claims for phones...That they wouldn't ever send me a new one no matter what.
