They FRIED my 5300 today! I have to wait untill another comes in, but probally won't get it unless it has the 1.035 current software. I have a loaner phone for now.
This is the 2nd or 3rd post I've read about Sprint stores frying a 5300 while trying to put software into the phone. Probally will see more if Sprint or Sanyo doesn't fix it quickly.
5300 owners if you go into a Sprint store to get software for your 5300, I would talk to the store tech about this frying problem. See if they have put any software into a 5300 yet, after what happend to me I wouldn't want to be the first. I think I was the first at the Sprint store in Ohio (sawmill rd) location. I was just getting the 1.034 software because they didn't have the 1.035 in yet. I talked to a Sprint tech over the weekend about the 2 software upgrades and told him I read on howardchui.com that a 5300 owner got his phone fried by upgrading the software and he said there is a small chance the phone could fry if you skip softwares. So I tryed to prevent this by just getting the one software at a time but they still fried it.

I know accidents happen but am I wrong for asking for compensation? What do you think fair compensation is?

I have to reenter all contacts, screensavers, ringers (email addreses which takes for ever)

Pictures losted, some saved on computer. not sure on this but when you download them to your phone they don't look as good on your phones as from a picture from your picture wallet.

All the time involved going to store, talking to custormer care/tech

sorry if to long
