stupid motorola lol

actually no thats not the reason they wanted me to buy because they knew it was the cover i was talking about because in the first response in which they wanted me to buy it they sent me a link to buy the battery cover for 10 dollars..

what i wrote was something like why should i have to buy something thats faulty on the phone when i bought it in no way should i have to pay to replace something that the manufacture messed up on

then they replied and told me they would send me it for free this one time and i got a follow up specifically stating that my "battery back cover" was shipped which makes it even funnier because i was told the right thing was shipped but was shipped the wrong thing


so im waiting on a response if they dont ask form e to return the battery of course im going to keep it why not,doesnt hurt to have a spare

I had a problem with my battery cover too. I actually lost it for a day and I was really angry. I did find it though in my buddy's car where I had been sitting.

Fixing the battery door was very easy. I just took the cover off and bent the hinges ever so slightly inward so that now the cover fits snugly.

I heard there's a video floating around on this forum too demonstrating how to fix it? I couldn't find it or I'd link it here.

I swear I saw (somewhere) that Moto was offering free backs to anyone who got one that did not fit properly, there was even a apology from them. That makes this even funnier and more curious! If they really are offering them for free why did they think you should pay $10 for it? I think they are only about $5 at Verizon anyway.
Stupid Motorola indeed.
