Just went to a Sprint corporate store about both of our phones having touch screen issues. The tech immediately asked for our info and ordered new ones for us to be shipped to our house. Painless process for us. Hopefully the new models have the problem fixed because I love this phone.

My new one is working really well compared to the other one. Updated to zv6 and did a reset on it to clear out any type of bugs and havent had any touch screen problems or anything with the new one.

And I contend it would be even better in 1080p. I'm just not a big proponent of higher resolution screens. I was happy with my 720p BB Z30. It looked better than most 1080p screens. And I was very ha

I have had my G4 for 12 days now and i really love it.  My battery averages 1 day 12 hours according to gsam.    I have to say i really love that wifi calling is on this phone and all you have to do

My G4 just bricked yesterday. it gets stuck in the Sprint screen or LG screen. Called sprint and they said it was cover for free. They refrained from calling it a Recall. I did have to mention it for them to look for it though. They said i could go to a store to get a new one for no cost. Wasted an hour at the store for them to tell me it was a known issue and they had to order one cause they have none in stock. Just ended up leaving and doing it over the phone.

I see absolutely no advantages of an iPhone over the G4 IMHO. You pay more for an iPhone and receive less features. But hey i guess many people believe ios is worth it.

What disappointed you about the G4?

First one didn't made to the third month... And froze half the screen .... But the biggest disappointment was the battery ...... I mean...... I confirmed that all the battery reviews are crap... Because im a mild to heavy user and it doesn't last a working day.... (thats 7.5 hours)...

 

What really impressed me was the camera .... This is on way another league.....

I agree about the battery. Thats pretty much the only negative but I have extra batteries so it's no issue and I never need to find an outlet or charger.

I think all this focus on battery life and all these reviews that purport to suggest what battery life people should expect are such a joke anyway. The battery life is so heavily dependent on the network signal strength that it is just impossible to know what level of battery life to expect when network strength varies block to block.

The screen was a hardware defect that has been corrected ... hence the recall. 

 

But that battery, yeah that battery just plain sucks...   :rolleyes:  :wall:

I keep hearing about a recall and I have yet to see anything about it beside he say she say.

It was distributed to employees, but no public announcement was made that I am aware of. If you got your device previous to this month, and are having issues, most corporate stores should replace it (as long as they are informed).

Did your box have a white circle sticker on it? That is apparently the way the retail employees know that the device is a new one, not a bad device.

Anything sold before October 4th would be on the faulty hardware. I got mine in July, and haven't seen any of the reported issues, but it's possible you might have gotten a bad one.

Is there anyway to address the situation before the phone is unusable? I doubt sprint would swap phones out just willy nilly, but I also find it uneasy to use a phone that may mess up at any time.

Yes, it is a recall. Find a corporate store that does repairs and call them to ask about swapping

I went to a corp store and they don't know anything about a recall, I can't find in statements from Sprint or LG about there being one, unless someone here has some proof, its just rumors...
