    Default I need a new sprint phone... (NOT A WTB!)

    I've currently got a sprint LG PM225... I've cracked the front of it (only cosmetic. It didn't damage anything else)

    It's about to go. A few of the navigational buttons are either hard to press (from water damage) or don't work at all. It takes pictures, but...not good quality. I had a 225 before this one, and was able to send/receive pictures, but for some reason, this one doesn't. It may be a problem with sprint, and not neccessarily my phone, though. Nonetheless, it's about time for a new phone. Oh, also, the main LCD screen likes to kinda black-out, and fade in and out from what it should be, to black, and back and forth between the two.

    I need a phone that's durable. I went through six phones in 3 months, one time. I'm brutal with them. They get dropped, kicked, SOMETIMES lightly tossed. I work in a collision center...so, it gets pretty beat up.

    Any suggestions as far as a better but still pretty durable one?

    Please note ahead of time. I DO HATE sprint. But my contract doesn't end for another like...8 months or so. Which is about how long my oldest phone has lasted. When the contract is up, I'll be going with Verizon... Sprint blows. SO Many places don't have service...like when I'm laying in my bed... I've had a couple DIFFERENT phones on their service, so it's not like it's the phone's fault...

    Anyways, anyone had experience with a good sprint phone?

    You need to talk to Yousef. He is a Sprint Tech.

    Just wanted to ad that verizon has a water proof phone since your going that direction. But sprint wise, isnt sprint and nextel the same thing now since they merged? If so get a nextel work phone. Those things are durable as ****! I ran one over and it didnt do crap to it.

    LoL, thanks on that, but I think with sprint, you can use a nextel phone, and vice versa...

    ...unless I'm wrong on that...?
