T-Mobile Sending Out HTC Wing Replacement Batteries

T-Mobile is replacing all HTC Wing batteries, swapping the default Dynapack battery for a newer Celxpert one. The note attached to the replacement says, "T-Mobile and HTC are providing a replacement for the T-Mobile Wing battery made by Dynapack at not charge to you due to rare occurrences of the battery overheating." Ask for yours before your phone asplode. [WMexperts via Boy Genius]

What I really need for them to do is just send me a new T-Mobile Wing! What a piece of **** this phone has been. It makes Vista look stable.

Can I get one for my 8925 Tilt? It's a Dynapack as well and has recently gone to south and wount hold a charge for more then about 12 hours.

Oh, and I can't say this enough, the service has gone to shit in San Diego since Cingular went away. Massive dropped calls and one sided conversations. Man it's bad.

If only they can send out new phones instead. The Wing is, by far, one of the shittiest little HTC turds ever. Even on a good day, it just doesn't have the resources to run its OS properly, and I firmly believe that any owners of this shit that say otherwise, is lying through their yellow hillbilly teeth!

You guys act like you've never heard of custom firmware. I'm running WM6.1 on a custom ROM and it's smmoooooth. That aside, 200Mhz, WTF?!?

Not surprised. My original AT&T Tilt (Dynapack) died of Red LED of Death. The replacement came with a different battery.

@Kaiser-Machead: I got one of 'em, and it works real good-like, seein as I know what I'm doing with it. And you're wrong about me lying thru my yellow hillbilly teeth. I'm tellin the truth, and I ain't got no teeth.

@BadBoyNDSU: if you are running it custom then use BatteryStatus and Overclock it to 247 or higher, mine works great at 247mhz

Yay! I get a new battery for my phone on them! Since the battery life on my phone was starting to go dim, this is even better news. Now, when are they going to roll out Windows 6.1 since MS has officially announced it.

What about that battery manufacturing plant that blew up or something?

@Kaiser-Machead: Hell, I can't argue with you - you have a star next to your name. That's not fair.

I called our local T-Mobile store and they knew nothing about this. Is it a mail only thing? I was thinking I could go over there and pick up a replacement battery. No such luck.
