Smh at us Americans...

Have we no shame?

I'm on my 4th but this works perfect for now. Do I need to change it ?

Had mine replaced this week. Was well worth it. Screen has been much improved. Wasn't having big problems, but I would trade it out. The screen just feels right to type on. More "button" like. Great to see RIM is improving the device.

I have had mine since release week, and I still am on the first. I had more trouble with my Curve and Tour than I did with this one!

Got my S2 8 weeks ago and works perfect, not a single issue.

Peace

I had to get my first Storm2 replaced 10 days after I got it. My bottom right sensor was not working correctly. The end button seldom worked. My current storm2 works pretty well, even with a couple drops, however my GF's storm2 might have a stiff screen. It's kind of difficult to type on.

Yup mine and my boyfriends, more than half the time the green call button wouldn't work

I got my storm two the day it came out and I'm on my 7th phone all for the same problem! happy to hear verizon finally did something about it!! think its safe to have them replace it now??

I got mine early last month and I have noticed two screen problems.

1) It has a tendency to go trigger happy and adds duplicate letters.

2) The corner closest to the hang up button tends to get stuck.

I'm coming off of several replacements of the storm 1 and I anticipate having to return this one soon. Do you think I should return this now and just get the improved version as a preemptive measure?

wife and I have had ours since the first week....haven't had any problems at all with these 2 phones....hope this doesn't become an issue later on, we both love this phone after living with a Pearl for 2 years...

Well, unfortunately I am one of the unlucky ones. I had the Storm for a year, having it replaced 5 times, my gf had hers replaced only once. Got the S2, she took the Tour on our one year upgrade, and low and behold, it's been one of the worst typing experiences I've ever had. And yes, I still have the original S2 (since Dec 09) because I just haven't had the energy to go through the process of getting it replaced. Maybe, I'll call this weekend after having read this.. So many thanks to.....

Sincerely,
the beaten one...

I was about to buy a 9520 as a secondary phone last month, but immediately got a hard screen. They gave me another unit. But that one is even worse, the bottom left corner was impossible to press. In the end I cancelled the purchase bcoz they only have 2 units at hand.

The very first Storm2 that I got release week, had a massive rapid fire problem.
The screen would go nuts with the slightest pressure down on the call, menu, back, and end buttons.
2nd Storm2 had the same problem.
3rd Storm2 has the same issue but to much less of a degree... I figured I was stuck with it! I'm glad to hear that Verizon has new units, I'll be calling to ask for a replacement tomorrow.
That will be Storm2 # 4...
Add that to the 6 Storm1's I went through, and this is getting a bit rediculous!

Mine arrives tomorrow, I will post back on the differences.

Had mine since release date and had no issues.

If I lost my Storm (9530), will Verizon replace it with a Storm 2 (using my $50 insurance deductible)?

I've had my S2 since the first week of release and think its the best phone I've ever had. no screen issues. On occasion ill press the screen when its in standby and it doesn't click like it should and there is no reaction. But if i wait 1 second it will start working. Might just be a delay of some sort?

we know people are having issues, what we want to know is the ones that got the replacement to fix the screen this week, is there a difference. Is it fixed? I am running 451 now and my buttons work pretty good, but every once in a while the green button does lock up.

So please, the ones that got the new replacement, respond if it is fixed or not. We really dont need to hear about you are having problems, that is known, we need to know the unknown, does the new replacements out actually fix the problem.

I first reported issues with sticking keys back in December. It seemed to be getting progressively worse. I had called to report it back then, but they were clueless. Saw threads here, one focusing on a hardware fix of "loosening torx screws" that many said worked, and others saying that leaked OSs fixed the problem. Then, I read about the VZW replacement and it was a simple call to get a replacement shipped. I was out of the 30 day warranty, so mine came in a brown box, but meeting the date and date code criteria. I checked my phone for usage and it showed 0 usage for both phone and data.

Clicking is slick..beautiful and distinctly different. As for sticking keys, the jury is still out!

My first storm2 did exactly what you guys posted. I got a replacement three days later as VZW said I would get a new one. They sent a refurbished one. My screen sticks everyonce and awhile, but not enough for me to hate it...

I'm on my third S2 so far, but all exchanges were within the first 3 weeks of initial release. The first two were basically exchanged for this issue, but since I received this third device with a manufacturing date of 100209, I've been very satisfied. I switched to .451 when it was leaked and it definitely improved everything about the phone including the screen click functionality. I won't be exchanging my device anytime soon because it's unlocked and I'm satisfied with what I have.

I am in South Africa with MTN. I experienced problems with the screen and when I complained to the local agents they replaced my Storm 2 with a new one, so far no problems.

I will tell u this I got the first storm and i had 8 of them the screen was jacked in the bottom left hand side i told them the referbs are all bad they were giving me and they kept calling me a liar so i finally got them to put me with a tour then i had the track ball issue with 2 of them then my next 2 had software issues. so i have left blackberry for the droid and i paid full price because they would not put me in anything else for 2 years i miss my email but my phone still works better than my blackberries

Yup I have this! Didn't realize it was a big problem. Just kept pushing til it worked! Now I will call! Hated the Storm 1 now not happy with the 2.

and going right back. First thing I saw when I turned it over to put the battery in is what appears to be dirt or something black that was smeared on the inside, and where the barcodes are it appears something sticky was removed. I'm having some issues with my current one but I can live with them for a little bit longer while the replacement gets sent back.

I just had my 9550 replaced and I still have to same issue the the lower left corner of the screen. Its a pain trying to answer calls or bring up the dial pad using the "send" button. My old device had the same issue and so does the replacement.

I have this problem on my S2 but i noticed the software leak does fix or decreases the probability of it happening. i noticed tho if my hands are cold my screen locks up too pre and post leak install. is this a problem with the phone? if we are to return the phone for a "reissued" model is there information to look out that will tell us it is a fixed batch?

I was told I was the first one in my town cuz I called Verizon right when the rumor came out. I went to the store and the regional rep was there and he showed the store manager how to do it with my order...I was the guinee pig I guess. Got mine 3 days ago and I can tell the screen feels smoother and more responsive.

BLACKBERRY STORM...WORSE PHONE EVER!!!!

RIM - STICK TO YOUR CORE COMPETENCIES in physical qwerty's

My husband went through 7 S2 since Nov and finally got one that worked correctly!

got mine in earlier today but overall the screen does have a totally different feel to it, bottom buttons also feel nice. restoring it as i type.

I had a launch phone and i got my swapped out it was worth it. The new one is 100% more responsive. The bottom row buttons actually feel like buttons now. My old one if i tried to press the buttons over and over it would get stuck. Now i can press any of the bottom buttons and it doesn't get stuck its awesome.

I got my storm2 the second day it came out and it seems those who got first release aren't having the problem.

I did however recently cracked my storm2 from dropping it while getting out of my vehicle and spiderwebbed the screen surprisingly it still worked as if it was never dropped, I got an insurance replacement of course and updated my os to 5.0.0.451 which fixed any screen issues that i had so i never really had to take it back.

The problem is in the os when everyone finally gets the official update is should fix the problem.

so i received mine today but i called in for the charging port always disconnecting in the car. But my new device does not have the date or the sticker Screen is a little stiff. Not sure if I should call them or let it be? only 30 day warranty on the refurbs right?

I have not had one problem with my storm! I got it the day it came out. Little issues I had disappeared after loading the latest leaked os. I love my phone :)
