HTC Phones come with a manufacture warranty for one year. And since the diamond hasnt even been out for a year, it should still be covered. The manufacture warranties are general pretty restrictive and stuff, but take it to a sprint repair center and they should be able to give you a general idea if it falls under warranty. That is if they cant fix it there. Hope this helps:)

In Feb of this year i bought a sprint ppc6700. The navi button was broken, it was scratched up. I dealt with it for 2 months went, to sprint store... replacment. I have had it switched out a few times. I had to change my number and when the ## they provided didn't work, the sent me a NIB mogul w/2 batteries (1 HTC & 1 sprint) and chargers. Brand New!! told me monday or tuesday, arrived Saturday and was ordered friday around noon. I have had excellent luck with sprint and there replacment system. make sure ins. is added to your line... if anything wait a months and do it. I would still recommend checking out MFR warranty. good luck

I just got off of the phone with sprint and after sweet talking to the lady she sent a ticket out for me to get a FREE htc diamond replacement and a return kit for the broken one. she said the phone will come in 2 to 3 days and she told me when i get this one she would reccomend me to get insurence on this one cause she waved the fee for the new phone. now what would happen if i didnt send the old phone back in?:brows:HTC Phones come with a manufacture warranty for one year.

I gotta get some of this luck. I didnt get TEP and my hard buttons on my TP just stoped working the other day....34 days after I bought it. So the e-care people were all like, we cant do anything because its after 30 days. And I dont feel like sending it off to HTC and waiting for weeks to get it back. Sucks for me:(

yes you would have to send those back but you could keep the card and the sync wire.

Well over the phone they said they will send a return kit for only the phone and were talking about the diamond so no card and i read on another site that he kept everything(battery,cover etc)but the phone and dident get charged??

Keep calling back thats what i did but i still had 2 days until my 30 days were up and it wouldent let the guy order it so he said why dont you just go to a sprint store for a exchange i said i dont have transportation then he said well i will just give you a ring back in two days so i can order your device but if i were you id just keep calling saying that this is a new defected device and your a couple days under warrentty and you dont want to pay 50 dollars and they may waive the charges but another thing i did was say i was goin to cancel service unless they help me but one girl dident care so just keep calling and be strict but nice and you will get what you want

the envelopers that they send are big enough for everything to be placed in there.... i have gotten many of them throughout the years and never got one that was closed to being filled with all the stuff in it.
