If you didn't sign for either and they were just left on your door, then you have a question to ask yourself
Are you a person concerned with "Ethics"? If so test both, see which one has less bugs and screen bleed, then send back your original and the lesser of the two replacements
If not, call T-Mobile and check your order history WITHOUT mentioning you got two G2X replacements, and ask for tracking numbers associated to any orders including warranty replacements.
If only one G2X order exists in the system, match the tracking number to its phone and use only THAT phone never turning on the other one
Get a replacement battery cover from LG, a charger and battery online, sell as new no box on Craigslist with a prepaid number, delete the ad and email, throw the prepaid sim away, profit.
Mail the extra one to me. :O

mail it to senator weiner
than he can tweet and it wont be tracked back to him.
I didn't sign for them. My dad did. They both have same numbers on them, tracking numbers etc. Only the serial is different on both phones.

i dont want to buy a used car from this guy
One thing I forgot to mention. They were supposed to just be sending me a battery. They sent two replacement phones instead.
So you signed?
Call asking if it was delivered ("I'm away on business, just checking if my phone was delivered yada yada"), if when they check they don't mention two were delivered you're golden, follow the sheisty instructions above!

It's called stealing, regardless of who made the mistake. Call and return the phone.. It's the right thing to do.
Ignore above poster ... note the Jesus freak avatar that tells you right there ignore any advice from him. I highly suggest you make your self a nice profit... its not stealing if they gave it to you.

I currently have a back cover that I want to try something with. I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Thats what I did. My volume rocker fell out. So I called to get a replacement. They said it was under warranty and sent me a free replacement.
I also asked them what I should do if it happens again. They told me I would have to pay $35 dollars for each additional replacement.

Interesting... Worth a shot
Did you ask for a replacement?
Or they just asked for your adress and then sent it to you?

actually ... at first i called them and asked for a replacement... but they told me we need a picture of the lose backplate and some further information from me. so they told me i have to go on their site and send them a message with my request.
in the message i gave them my adress and the information about the crackling noise and that it seems to me that the phone doesnt really fit into the backplate ... bla bla ... just making them understand... put my EMEI code into the message and that was it.
day later i got an email from them that they are into it and sending me a replacement
and the new one fits really great

You used to be able to get one for free, but some people complained about people committing fraud from this forum (someone posted instructions on how to get one for free) and then they started requiring you to send your old one back or giving them a credit card number.
for me it was free ... now i have two backplates
Good for you people... They told me to send it in for repares :I
It was an automated reply, it even included a part that mentioned to remove the back cover before sending. Idiots.

I have replacement back cover coming too.
I contacted HTC on Live chat and they could not have been nicer.
I explained the clicking noise I was getting from phone and told her i was worried that it was going to get worse and that i was worried about dust getting into it.
Also said (nicely) that for a high end device and the companys (current) flagship phone that it was dissapointing that this was happening.
She asked for my serial no - and a couple of minutes later, viola, new back cover on the way.
no credit card - no sending in for repairs- no photos?? (like they would help anyway)
Well done HTC -
I had my volume button fall off. Called HTC via the phone number for US customer service from their website. Told the lady what happened and she was more than happy to send me a new one, free of charge. No CC info or return required for me. Unfortunately it was on backorder and the delivery was delayed by 3 weeks, but here now and I have a backup if ever needed, just no volume button.
She did tell me that all accessories have one free replacement. So I'm assuming that's the backplate, battery and maybe the headphones and charger too.
Anyways, I couldn't be more pleased how way this while process was and how polite the htc lady was. Cheers to htc for a job well done on the customer service side of things!
And boo to all the people who abuse this service and possibly make then start charging your CC and such!
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G rocking Coredroid v2.1
i got 2 back covers from them and a battery for free.
i requested replacements for my sensation before but Tmobile sent me faulty ones :/ , it was like 2 replacements in a week, so i contacted them and told them im going to keep my old phone instead.
i took the replacement phones IMEI stuff, then i called HTC. lol
Mine had a crackling noise also and was very loose they sent me a new one with no issues at all, The new one came and the dang power button was sunken in! so im asking for another!!
Aah, awesome! I dropped by phone on it's back and it's all scratched. I fixed the crackling noise with some isolation tape but what the heck, going to try this tomorrow
I know I messed up by not getting the 5 dollar insurance. I sure am pissed of at myself now. To make matters worse I purchased my triumph on Ebay. lol. Does any cellphone repair store deal with these phones already, I might have to check sometime this week But is there any website where maybe I can purchase a gorilla glass screen replacement. I would gladly take on the repair challenge myself. Thanks everyone! Hopefully someone can help and I would greatly appreciate it!
(Edit) A nice VM chick allowed me to get it insured, surprisingly I still had time. If anyone wants to ill open it up for sure when I receive my new one.... for science!!!
Not to rub salt in the wound but I seen a bigger screen and figured I'd be the first one to break it so I got the insurance. I got mine from Best Buy. Might be a dumb question but will VM warranty it?
I believe BB only warrants the phone usually for 30 days, I'm not to sure. Regarding VM as soon as you sign up, you often receive a text that lets you add on insurance for 5 extra dollars. GET IT!! Because as of now my best hope is to just go to a random repair shop and see if they can even fix it.
Hey, do us a favor - take a photo of the broken screen and post it here!

http://imgur.com/a/fMIeG Here ya go! Basically the touchscreen still functioned but about 80% of the top screen was not working at all. Then the battery died and it did not want to take a charge anymore. Basically both issues are unrelated it just so happens that Motorola really rushed this thing, and you can tell what a terrible job they did looking at the whole sub-forum. I wish I would have avoided spending 300 bucks and would have grabbed the Optimus V instead, I never hear anything bad about it. And being a college student I cant afford a 100$ monthly plan.
(EDIT) Really looking at this, I don't even know if the glass broke or if the touchscreen did. I don't feel anything on the outside. You guys are the experts, I will gladly open it up for you guys if you want. I just need to buy those tiny screwdrivers.

I thought I read somewhere that VM warrants their phones for a year, no matter where you buy them. I could be wrong, and it could be for manufacturer's defects only. I'll look for the link when I get home.

I seriously doubt that would cover a cracked lcd screen. But I guess it doesn't hurt to try.

Yeah...there it is. The worst that can happen is they laugh at you...but what have you got to lose at this point? Maybe they can at least ship you a heavily discounted one...you never know.
Ouch that really sucks man
Well if all else fails you can always try and repair it your self.
It might cost a bit since some of the newer phones are coming with the lcd and the glass as one unit...
I might be wrong and only need to purchase the glass...
Good luck and hope you well
