Good night white spot

[jph8tr]

My 4th replacement Mogul just went back to Sprint in the mail and I'm settling in with the Touch Pro. I'll miss the hardware buttons , but I won't be missing the white spot or the easy to break usb port. I had fun with the mogul, but it is bar none the least reliable phone and or pda that I've ever owned. I thought I would be sticking with the mogul for at least 6 months to a year more, but the !@#$ keeps breaking and the refurbs Sprint gives out are total crap. Big thanks to all those who have and continue to contribute here. You turned a device that is severely flawed by its manufacturer almost to the point of uselessness into a really fun and useful tool. THANK YOU! Goodnight moguls everywhere.

i had just got a new, possibly refurb, 6800.... and its got the white spot in the SAME location as my old one. it was there when i first turned it on... lower left corner

I don't think there are anymore "new" moguls to be found. If it came a small white box, it's a refurb. When my second to last mogul died, I went to a Sprint repair center. They had 2 moguls to choose from, one had 3 white spots, the other had one really bright one. They wouldn't budge, if I wanted a phone right then, I had to choose from those two or wait till they got more. I chose the one with a single spot that also had a sloppy loose keyboard and as I found, about 1/3 less battery life than my previous moguls. I ended up going through insurance and getting a new Touch Pro.

Heh, small carriers that don't get the Diamond or TP are still sellin' the 6800's new. Ready to get rid of mine!

it came in the same glossy box as my first, with new dock, all connectors, owners manual, cd rom.... so my guess is it was new. with a brand new white spot

haha your tellin me, had the day off so i stopped in to bug them about the touch pro haha, they said maybe this summer but i dont know. i do know they took the ppc6800 out of the stores an dont show it online anymore.... hoping for the touch pro

[encephalon9986]

i got lucky and got a new one back in january (verizon) and it does not have the white spot like my last one

[lepapirriky]

i went to my sprint store and they told me to come back on monday for my phone, i went today and they gave me the mogul, i took a quick look at it and the spring to open the keyboard were horrible, it was getting stuck half way...so i told the guy i wasnt going to accept a cellphone that its worst than mine..he told me "but you havent try it yet"..and i told him..."i just did" so they will send another one until Wednesday. If its the same, then i will ask to talk to their manager...because is not only wasting my time but also gas.
and no, im not making up to get the pro, the talk button doesnt work(i just use the screen) and the SD reader sometimes undetected the memory, thats the 2 main problems i found myself with. besides the opportunity to get the pro :D

I got the white spot on my XV6800.... I guess I'll have to see if I have the time to flash it back to stock and return it to a Verizon store....

Also one of my buttons is starting to go....dam, got a brand new one about 4 months ago and already these problems....

[lepapirriky]

weird thing just happend...they gave 2 moguls!...for so reason the tech thought those 2 phones were mine and were needed some repairs....he told me by tomorrow i'll have those TWO phones replace....i went with 1 and im coming out with 2 :P

[lepapirriky]

well it happened :) i ended it up having 2 moguls :D

[TeleFragger]

i have the white spot but not super noticeable... i can live with it... dont have the insurance anymore.....

[catfishk]

let me guess, bottom right corner? i have flashed 5 Moguls/Titans/XV6800s and they all had that spot :confused:. some more so than others...

[lepapirriky]

mine is on the left, on both of them

[docnas]

Same here bottom left corner well its more towards the center but still cornerish.

hah thats kinda funny. i got mine 4 months ago and didnt have a white spot as i mentioned earlier in this thread and now we are in april and i got white spot in the lower left corner and my time keeps auto going ahead an hour even if i reset it and everything. gonna go to verizon and complain that this is my third replacement and demand a touch pro or omnia and hopefully i get one. I get an upgrade in august anyways so hopefully they upgrade me.

[lepapirriky]

if i was you, i wait until the new HTC cellphones comes. diamond 2 and pro2...those are more worth an upgrade.

yeah i did a hard reset again just to see what happens and it has been working great again so i am gonna wait for the touch pro 2 hoping its gonna be on verizon.

I give it a year before Verizon gets a new phone like touch pro 2
