So my girlfriend made the mistake of getting a Samsung Moment several months back. She hates the phone and had 1 problem with it before and took it to the sprint store. They said it was faulty and gave her a replacement Moment (that someone else had owned before, it had a crappy version of ghost armor installed and had minor wear even). Her phone has been HORRIBLY laggy lately so I planned to do a factory reset for her this evening. Before I could do that, she restarted it and it got stuck on the Samsung screen for 20 minutes (even after battery pulls). I finally got it to load up once but it said the system process FC'd and wouldn't connect to the 3g network. I was able to do a factory reset through options(but this is not a hard reset through a bootloader like on other phones I've used).
It booted up once but I decided to check to make sure things were ok before handing it back to her so I did one more power cycle. Now it gets stuck 3/4 of the way through the progress bar with the word Samsung on the screen. I've done battery pulls and everything but it never gets past this screen.
I didn't mean to get too detailed with what's wrong with it here but I'll get to my actual questions now:
When we go to the Sprint store tomorrow, what will her options be? Her phone is unusable. I doubt its something they can easily fix and the Moment is no longer carried by Sprint. Do they still hand out 'refubs' of these things or can she possibly be offered an early upgrade? I don't know how Sprint handles these situations so I was hoping someone could give us some info to know what to plan on or expect. She does have insurance on it too.
Thanks in advance
