Pre2 unlocked $65

adrand · 09:03 PM

I have a pre 2 "unlocked" with a broken power button. I was offered a $65 giftcard by one of those trade in programs but figured id offer it up here first. I used it for a month or two before the power button stopped engaging. It was used as a sprint frankenpre but has now been returned to its original form.
Anyone interested?

it is still under warranty, you should have it repaired/replaced.

Try posting in the Palm Pre Parts thread. Someone may pick up the phone there. I would buy it from you except that the power button is exactly what is worrying me on my Pre 2.

I had that problem with my Pre-, I just removed the power button, shoved in a thin slice of pencil eraser, and was back in business.

Not under warranty when he frankenpre'ed it.

I doubt the power button is broken, just needs tweaking. Maybe dirty.
