So my fucking Nextel phone doesnt work. I can make calls but cant hear the phone on the other end ringing and cant hear anybody on the other end but they can hear me. I also cant hear anything when somebody calls me. I tried 2 other phones that I know are functional and have the same problem. Since it was the same with 3 phones Im assuming its a problem with the carrier. I know Nextel blows but this has never happened before. My phone worked fine earlier today and I received and made calls with it. Is there a known problem with Sprint/Nextel? ---

No problems here and I’ve been a Sprint subscriber for years. Re-upping my contract this summer again with the EVO 3D and EVO View 4G (although I may get the latter without a contract to replace my laptop in class and work - will just use WiFi at both locations). ---

well technically I dont have Sprint even though they own Nextel. I dont even have a contract, just month to month now. Im looking into switching because I cant figure out whats wrong. The hot girl at the sprint store couldnt figure it out either. ---
