I need to get my phone replaced due to a cracked screen, i was wondering what if anyone have replaced there phone if they get the real droid bionic or a refurbished one that does not have the same quality as the droid bionics you get from the store?

I suggest u call instead of doing it online, reason is everytime i called to have my phone replaced i would get a new one in the box and everything but the two times i tried online i got refurbished phones.

I called and got a refurb. And if OP has full insurance then cracked screen is covered.

Since they don't make new Bionics anymore I would be surprised if you had the option of new in box. My guess is the only one's they stock are refurbs, also that's much cheaper for them to replace than an original.

Still available for sale on their website. Until other sources start reporting this I'll give it the same reaction I would give someone who told me they saw a UFO.

The bionic was never on display at my store, even when it first came out.

Yup. Went into a Verizon store last week to buy a case, no Bionic in sight. Look, I'm not poking fun at the article but it just doesn't make any sense to me. Last night while I watched my Jets kick the crap out of Miami I saw 2 bionic commercials. They've invested way too much time and money to pull the plug.

they had 2 Bionic's on display ay my store & no more. I was just at a Radio Shack right now to and they did not have the Bionic on display either. I asked about it and they said they took it down and wont be carrying it anymore(but did not know why). They did mention the RAZR though & pre-orders starting on the 27th.
[EDIT]: I just went into Best Buy Mobile(yes I am in a mall) and they did still have the Bionic on display. They aren't aware of it being discontinued but also did not know anything about the RAZR nor did they know the RAZR exsists......
Hmm..here's a way of thinking...
They will be taking away the bionic from all sales locations after only a short period of sales.
They will start releasing all kinds of new and better phones...
Then out of nowhere....
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL BIONIC OWNERS!
The Bionic was being held back by a secret development group and has THIS THIS and THIS features that NO OTHER PHONE HAS AND NEVER WILL HAVE!
(see here to get these features installed onto your bionic)
This was being secretly planned from the time the bionic was even first created.
So another congrats to all of you who purchased the Bionic which was part of our secret test program that nobody knew about!
They better be giving us free early upgrades.
Or
Unlock bootloader since they won't be carrying it if this was the reason.
This would be the shortest Droid run ever. Well Droid Eris?

Nothing else. Can't keep up with the orders as they say.

that's bloody b.s. I haven't gotten a Bionic just yet(was about to until the RAZR news today)... but then now I hear that this RAZR is going to have a non-removable battery. so what the hell... take away the Bionic for the RAZR and then we can't upgrade the batteries?!. what kind of b.s. is Motorola pulling?...
They aren't pulling the plug, they can't keep up with the orders already placed. Read the update on the mydroidworld page.

Right there is a tip that the Droid Bionic has proven to be in such high demand that Verizon can't keep enough of a supply in their own stores.
Granted, you may get lucky and find a Best Buy, Walmart, or Radio Shack that has a few laying around. This news incident is ONLY for Verizon retail outlets.
Wow so can we get a refund on the faulty device

Did you even read the thread?
At what point did anyone even claim the device to be faulty? Read over the thread. Nothing is wrong with the bionic and there is no reason to believe it is being dropped already.
Ok so I soft bricked my phone then used "flash version droid 3 ota 5.6.890to phone-psouza4.zip to get it back to stock.....I used terminal emulator to see if I was still rooted....said permission denied I'm not rooted....my power key has been sticking would it be safe to warrantee the phone?
Get rid of all evidence of trying to root and the power key sticking should be enough. But I'm sure you can get it to root somehow. Maybe a different cable?

Not to hijack this thread, but I've been curious about this, I bought my D3 off craigslist. Is it still covered under warranty even if I'm not the original owner? I've also had a sticky power button at times and it seems to be getting worse.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
I would say, it should be. Motorola has a 1 year manufactures warranty. They should be able to see when it was initially put in service when they run the esn.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
I returned my og droid still rooted because of a broken headphone jack and no one cared. If it's not rooted then I think you should be fine. No one in the store is going to want to spend the time to go through the whole thing. I assume you are going to do this at your Verizon (also assuming Verizon) store. Every time I have had a problem they have just handed me a new phone.

thanks
Thanks for info guys
If you bought the phone on your Verizon account and you are able to keep it in your account then Verizon will handle the warranty. Otherwise you will have to go though Motorola.
Sent from my XT862 using XDA App
I just got mine replaced over warranty. I called it in, said it wouldn't turn on. When I got the new one, I bricked the rooted one by interrupting a fastboot flash and send it back. I haven't been charged for a new one, so it seems that method works.
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using xda premium
I wouldn't want to be charged later for the phone if I had brought it back at a vzw store so I would just restore to stock prior to exchange.takes 5 minutes.

Me? The phones were $50 normally but i told them they were $1 on Amazon and they honored it... then since i was a repeat customer to best buy wireless I got $50 per line I upgraded, then traded in my old phones. Best buy is top notch.
Just purchased an Atrix HD on ebay. Seems like a solid phone but i am definately going to do the Battery mod
So my old galaxy nexus was overheating and about to catch on fire so Asurion sent me a brand new Moto X still packaged up for a free warranty swap... woo! Now I was was wondering, is this phone good enough to use stock? and will switching from stock to a custom rom in the future will that lose some of the moto functionality? Overall, decent phone? I mean it was a free upgrade from a GN so it can't be too bad eh?
Damn when did u request for a new one? I have a old Galaxy nexus sitting around I wonder if I could do this too

I requested yesterday and got it today. The lady offered me this one right off the bat and said it was really good. She said she would of suggested the GS4 but her supervisor wouldn't let her only because I had already had a samsung and since it was overheating they didn't want to send the same manufacturer. Also the reason why I got a brand new phone instead of anything else.
Am I the only one anxious for the white G2? The only thing that can make this phone better is white with a nice ugly Verizon badge on it!

Haha, very true. Amazing how they can just sit there and deny! I'm on my 14th day with the black one and trying to decide whether I should return the phone or not.

I went in tonight to my local VZ store and they didn't get any white ones in. Which is fine since I preferred the black anyway, but i wanted to at least look at the white one in person. Oh well, G2 is very nice, I am quite impressed, coming from the Nexus of course, like most it seems lol
they deny because they want to make a sale right then and there.
When they supposed to get them in? Will they let you swap for color?
How would you go about it?

There are pictures of it in white and I read one rumor last week that it would be out yesterday, which obviously didn't come true. Of course they won't let you switch colors, only if it's in your 14 day return policy. I think I'll just activate my old S4 I return my G2 for now. I hate to give it up because I love the phone but I would really regret it if the white come out soon. I could deal with black if I knew white wasn't coming, but @evleaks is usually pretty accurate.
Sent from my VS980 4G using xda app-developers app
I'm waiting as well. My wife really wants the white one since she thinks the black has a little blueish tint to it. However I need a phone by Thursday so I may order a G2 in black today (since there are some great prices around) and then just wait till Thursday to activate it in case the G2 in white comes along and isn't $150-200. I gather the process of returning will be much easier if I have not activated the phone or even opened the box.

I am guessing that if you called Verizon and they said they are not carrying it, while that means absolutely nothing to me it probably means it is not sitting in the back of the store so I'm guessing it would not be released before next Tuesday.
