  Talking to Sprint for hardware/device support is like asking the guy who mows your lawn if he knows how to fix your car. Besides, the best they can do is go "Here's the latest firmware for your device."

  The problem isn't the carrier - it's the manufacturers: HTC, Samsung, etc. Because they pump out so many Android devices on a regular basis devices that are sometimes only 6 months old stop receiving any sort of regular updates/support. Sprint can't really tell HTC "hey you need to support a device for one of our customers that is 2 years old".

  Really at the point Sprint is just going to try and get you to sign another 2-year contract and upgrade your device.
