[HTC EVO 3D] SayWhat10:
if u add a new line, does it come activated? or u activate when u receive it?
[HTC EVO 3D] No1ustad:
doesn't make sense to me. Sprint allows you to use one line's upgrade to purchase a phone that will be activated on another line. This would be pretty tricky if you didn't lose your eligibility until another line activates the phone.

what if i bought 5, kept them unactivated, closed my account and paid the ETF, and sold the phones for $450 each?
[HTC EVO 3D] mikebgb12:
You would make out, but the phones would still end up being activated by the purchasers. Just my guess

[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
The system will let me place an order for another Evo 3D at $199 right now on my same line.
[HTC EVO 3D] scramer:
Ahem *she* :D

There are some of us females that are just as addicted to flashing (roms), obsessive & compulsive about these phones as you guys.
[HTC EVO 3D] scramer:
My back-ordered status has changed, there is hope I will receive it (maybe Thursday?) Status now:

We were in the process of receiving inventory for the EVO 3D at our warehouse, so your order, or a portion of your order, may temporarily show in a backorder status. This will not change our delivery commitment to you and you can continue to expect your EVO 3D to arrive within 2 to 5 business days based on date of order. If you have any questions, please call 866-789-8292 between 8:00 a.m. EST to 11:00 p.m. EST Monday to Friday or 9:00 a.m. EST to 9:00 p.m. EST on Saturdays and Sundays.

Go Sprint! You Can Do It!
[HTC EVO 3D] DataDork:

--------------------------------------------------------------

I just checked and learned that early afternoon the warehouse was processing incoming inventory, which results in a brief period of time where customers got a "backorder" message. however, orders are processing and we are NOT in a 'backorder' status at this time. Thanks!
[HTC EVO 3D] kingakuma:
Sprint is apparently just allowing for Premier Customer to get first Dibs on the Device, They are still waiting for the stock to come in, most likely we will not receive a Shipping/Tracking number until the 24th. All the Stores get STOCK before the online stores do.

But you know how the carriers are we might just end up receiving the device anytime now anyways. But don't get your hopes up
[HTC EVO 3D] kkwus74:
you know oready one person has his evo3d shipped today oready right?
[HTC EVO 3D] pinky059:
Got my tracking number!! Woohoo!!
[HTC EVO 3D] No1ustad:
are they coming via email or through the status checker.. or both?
[HTC EVO 3D] pinky059:
Checked the status when I got home from work. Haven't got an email yet
[HTC EVO 3D] kkwus74:
me neither....hope it comes tonight though:)
[HTC EVO 3D] robnelle:
Order on it's way!

I just got my shipping email! It did ship overnight! Says estimated del. date and time as 6/22/11 pm delivery.:D

BTW the online UPS tracking thing is crap. It tells you almost nothing.
[HTC EVO 3D] mayfield103:
You have to sign in to get detailed info.

don't forget to bring a towel!
[HTC EVO 3D] kcodya:
Got my shipping e-mail! Delivery tomorrow!:D
[HTC EVO 3D] robnelle:
But that's just it. Why should I have to go through all that to find out tracking info? It wasn't always this way. Not until they went to that stupid MyUPS system. Once you sign up for it, if you don't log in for a long time, they deactivate your MYUPS registration and you have to create a new account. UPS basically found a way to take something that used to be simple for users and made it complicated by pushing them into an account with yet another username and password they need to remember and one that needs periodic maintenance to stop the registration from expiring, even if they seldom use the account. I don't like it. But that's just my opinion. Thanks for your suggestion though! I do appreciate it.:) OK back on topic for me now!
[HTC EVO 3D] CuzinBucksBx:
Got my tracking # around 6:45pm. No issue what so ever
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
It shipped for me. Chicago!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
People who got tracking numbers. On UPS website what did they use for your reference number? I'm trying to figure out what they may have used so people could use UPS's system to check packages coming to them by their zip code and reference number.
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:
If some devs get root by Friday I will <3 them forever! And buy them a beer too of course
[HTC EVO 3D] dfskevinohyeah:
AGREED omg when is the west coast going to get some love!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] DataDork:
I have a feeling west coast will have it by thursday / friday.
[HTC EVO 3D] WeatherTech:
Read my previous post. West Coast has longer to ship out than east coast (think time zones). They are obviously going to send the first trucks filled with east coast shipments because the shipping deadlines are sooner for east coast destinations.

While this may be true for some orders it's not as cut and dry as that and there isn't a lot of support for that position.
[HTC EVO 3D] DataDork:
well, im gonna hope it will come by friday lol
[HTC EVO 3D] Semantics:
Man, reading through this thread and seeing all of the desperation about possibly not getting the phone two days early, and the major crisis that would be, has given me great perspective on what a drug addict must feel.

Very interesting read, and study on how weird human beings really are. Lol.

Enjoy your phones! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Punchatron:
Got my tracking #. Delivery tomorrow by 3pm. Ordered 11am EST.
[HTC EVO 3D] vedavin:

[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
My online order finally shows my tracking number, and it's going to arrive tomorrow. That's 11:53am pacific time.
[HTC EVO 3D] ballerx43:
Whoever thinks the West Coast isnt getting the phones shipped is mistaken... They're still updating all order statuses. My order shipped out almost 1.5 hours before the status changed or I got an email. It will most likely be here tomorrow and you should all take deep breathes and relax... screw it, tomorrows the big day!!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] DataDork:
Well.. like i said above, my predication was thurs friday... and sprint beat it..

getting the phone in less than 24 hours =)
[HTC EVO 3D] Fadakar:
Me too, California here. Didn't think they could get it to me from Kentucky so fast. Super excited! :)
[HTC EVO 3D] mayfield103:
The tracking buddy app works great that what I use it even has a little map so you can see the progress

don't forget to bring a towel!
[HTC EVO 3D] prodigy2m:
Best phone ever.

I got mine and already got it activated online.

to NYC
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:
awesome! what are some stuff that might bug u now?
[HTC EVO 3D] awakener:
Just got mine as well
[HTC EVO 3D] bigant262:
Did you guys order today?
[HTC EVO 3D] kilik64:
anyone think these will be hard to get over the next 2-3 weeks? looking to swap my nexus s for this and have about 25 days left on my 30 to swap it.
[HTC EVO 3D] rockky:
Wrong recipient!
[HTC EVO 3D] rockky:
Yeah, but...U have a guy do it for U ...right?
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
If you bought your nexus s at sprint go there with all your boxes and accessories and try to return the nexus s on friday for an evo 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:
I taught my sis, and 3 (girl) cousins to flash roms on their phones, prop edit, and other **** hahaha, now they're teachin their friends
[HTC EVO 3D] No1ustad:
I'd be willing to help you teach them how to flash.:p
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:
ahaha I meant I already did, It wasn't an easy task though. My sis barely knew how to connect to wifi on her comp lol let alone download an app, and shes got a mac XD
[HTC EVO 3D] heathmcabee:
If I ordered yesterday, is it safe to say I will receive it on Friday or today? There was usually a 1 day turn around correct?
[HTC EVO 3D] mchlwvr614:
I would like to know this too. Still no tracking number for me on sprint.com/myupdate.
[HTC EVO 3D] prodigy2m:
You have to know what kind of 3D images to take, usually 3D comes out better when one object is upfront and others flat on the back.

Another is some residue on the screen after swiping with fingers (didn't have that problem with my EVO 4G)

Green Hornet is saying that license reached the limit (0) , which is weird.

-UPDATE: After todays system update, it started to play!

Otherwise, this phone rules! better battery, better screen, better performance... you name it! Plus a cool spiderman 3d game--actually is really fun.

Video in 3d is better than static images 3D. Don't ask why, I don't know.
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:
thanks! nothing major or important to me, so im getting it still:D
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
How about giving me a reup credit? Cust service said I'm not eligible because I'm have a Everything Plus plan.
[HTC EVO 3D] nfaust01:
guess i am just lucky then but my connection is the charter 25mbps. but yeah probably a load balance issue.

[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I'm reading over on the Sprint forums that this little shindig is kicking off at midnight central, not 8am central. Apparently they are posting the link then... fingers crossed. I'll repost over here when I find it.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Sorry buddy I dont have that kind of pull at sprint. I can give you a killer deal on a TPU case though! :D I upgraded my Everything plan 3 months ago

so I could get this upgrade. After I shelled out the extra $40 a month I now find out I didnt need to since sprint is grandfathering everyone in it seems.

A call to customer service should get you your yearly upgrade back (at least this one time).
[HTC EVO 3D] snarebum:
thanks for sending to amazon! I use prime constantly. love your cases and your prices.
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:

touche good sir
[HTC EVO 3D] THEGAMEPLAY94:
just bought one of the cases...great price
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I too love Amazon Prime.. It's really a great service and almost all of my purchases come from Amazon now because of it. I can say though from a seller standpoint its the total screw as far as fees. Not only do they charge me I think 20% of the sale price, they also charge $1.50 to fill each order and then an additional weight charge on top of that! Its absurd how much money I am giving them lately. It's worth it though, the amount of business I've been getting from Amazon is unreal. Shipped out almost 300 Amazon orders today. Thats a lot for 1 person! This is why I'm trying to use FBA more, even though the fees are so high it saves me having to hire an employee to fill the orders as well as warehouse space and all that. Thanks for the kind words!
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
That kinda sux for me... Thanks for the info!
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Geez I didnt expect this thread to be a marketing tool for myself :D Thanks for the order!
[HTC EVO 3D] nfaust01:
lol yeah i couldn't help myself. It is late and figured i could give a few good laughs. No harm intended to the original poster though, all in good fun.

[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
That link never gets old :D
[HTC EVO 3D] THEGAMEPLAY94:
i heard of the site outside of the thread but then realized you were the creator so i had to let u know lol
[HTC EVO 3D] readingkeeper:
Sorry if this is a little off topic, but since there is an instant rebate on the Evo3D, how long do we have to wait before we can switch the phone to a different line? (I'm using my dad's upgrade to get this phone)
[HTC EVO 3D] snarebum:
btw the link is up.
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:

[HTC EVO 3D] nfaust01:
Some in store reps will make you wait the 30 days but my local reps dont care and they make sure i know if i switch right away i loose the 30 return policy. I have switched 3 phones this way and so far no problems at all. but like i said you do need to find a rep to do as i was out of town once and was going to buy a phone and switch and that rep would not do it until after the 30 days. I then just waited till i got home and have my local store do it.
[HTC EVO 3D] SINNN:
Man, I feel bad for you guys anxious to get this piece of llama dung. I already had hands on and I was hoping to be blown away like the nice hd 60in 3d flat panels. But instead its more like the nintendoDS 3d. If you guys have played with it then you know what I'm talking about. Garbage. Well htc haz done it again. Bringing in new innovations to the industry of cell devices but yet again producing POS. Good luck to whon decide to buy it. And mark the calendar on the 30 th day so u can recover the money you got conned from.
[HTC EVO 3D] daveeckert:
Confirmed, just finished my order :D
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:

Congratulations! Your order is complete. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] rockky:
Gotta putup with these morons OP
[HTC EVO 3D] readingkeeper:
Thanks for the quick response! I'll thank you once I'm back my computer. I was just worried about losing the rebate.
[HTC EVO 3D] led2112:
Confirmed here as well! Printing out my order receipt right now.

Clearly it did need it's own thread as there are plenty of us in here. Here is the link!!!! http://www.sprint.com/ftbredbud29
[HTC EVO 3D] Mayonesa:
just placed my order, let see how long it takes for me to get it. the evo didnt take long so this shouldnt either.
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
aaaaaaaaaaaaaand ordered.

NOTE: It says it should take 2-5 business days to get the phone.

Also to those wondering, I billed it to my account.
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
So is there any guarantee that these will arrive before friday?
[HTC EVO 3D] snarebum:
ive never ordered a phone online but my shipping method is stuck on free? i guess thats the only method I can choose?
[HTC EVO 3D] THEGAMEPLAY94:
ordered placed! it says 2-5 days but they probably put that to be safe
[HTC EVO 3D] chaoticallysweet:
Just placed order and i noticed this:Shipping: You should receive your order in 2-5 business days. You will receive a shipping confirmation email once your order has been shipped. booooo hisssss
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
That is what I'd like to know. I sat on the final page for a few minutes thinking I'm hoping I'm not shooting myself in the foot right now... I'm #1 on the best buy pre-order list and now I have a $50 gift card that I have nothing to do with now. Hmm.. maybe I can use it for Galaxy Tab 10.1 accessories? Yes, that is what i'll do!
[HTC EVO 3D] munsterrr:
Yeah i saw the 2-5 day shipping. i know alot of people have had good luck but with a pre-order already placed(like im sure most of us have). its not worth the gamble IMO.

I hope everyone that did order gets them early though. Im excited to hear what the masses have to say and not nit pickers.
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
I retract my statement about lies, and I thank you. You sir, are awesome.
[HTC EVO 3D] unknown1205:
just placed my order. free shipping but no option for next day delivery? is it free next day delivery?
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
Just ordered! Thanks!

Total $224.25
[HTC EVO 3D] THEGAMEPLAY94:
next day is free on new phones
[HTC EVO 3D] iSaint:
Really ?

I simply asked him if he thinks its needed ..

wasn't trying to be a ****

i was wrong ill admit it.

But i didn't go all *****y on him...

like

"Dude wtf you are a retard for making another stupid A$$ thread"
[HTC EVO 3D] dsarch21:
I'm in there like swimwear, thanks for the advance notice on the link.

2-5 days, I would be willing to bet I get it end of day weds or first thing thurs.

i think sprint has a shipping hub in NJ.
[HTC EVO 3D] chaoticallysweet:
why the heck did i get taxes added and you did not......
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
Next day was not an option, only "Free Shipping", which it says is 2-5 days (as said on my receipt).
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Do they say who they are shipping it with? If it's fed ex I'll be better off waiting
[HTC EVO 3D] Mayonesa:
lol guys relax!!!

it shouldnt take long to ship.. normally a day or 2 max!!!!!

even if it takes longer, you are getting the phone... you dont have to wait in line or deal with anyone...

is a few more days really going to hurt anyone? lol
[HTC EVO 3D] THEGAMEPLAY94:
thats what is says under next day.... 2-5 days for next day 5-9 for ground
[HTC EVO 3D] Harfainx:
Because my billing zip code is in Alaska, which doesn't have sales tax. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] snarebum:
i had 19 bucks for tax..
[HTC EVO 3D] THEGAMEPLAY94:
the site said either fedex or ups
[HTC EVO 3D] rrsweet:
WOW! well for whatever reason I'm only getting the $75 discount online. oh sprint how reliable you are. ( looks like I have to deal with them now on Friday) anyways I came here to see if I was the only one with this issue and decided to cancel my order. No overnight option on shipping? WTF kind of premiere service is this? It's like telling a kid he can buy candy 2 days before the baseball game, but he can't start eating till the 1st pitch. WHO CARES?
[HTC EVO 3D] aaron130:
Just ordered mine! It ALWAYS says 2-5 day shipping just to cover thier ass but it's ALWAYS came next day for me and I've ordered ALOT of phones online from sprint
[HTC EVO 3D] THEGAMEPLAY94:
i hate u!!!!! lol jk
[HTC EVO 3D] notown775:
just ordered my EVO3D god im so excited!!!!!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] gmelchert:
I'm in de for a trip, perfect timing, no sales tax here either... 199.99 flat :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Riff76:
Seems like 3VO forums don't have an actual mod, its like the wild west out here and if you mention XDA rules, people think you're anal. Guess its alright for now, but there will probably be less tolerance in the dev section for not following the rules.

The phone is now for sale so maybe people will start to calm down around here
[HTC EVO 3D] daveeckert:
FWIW:

I got a Blackberry bold last year, didn't like it, got the EVO. Both times it said 2-5 days shipping, both times it came UPS overnight.

Also, one of the Sprint Premiere Community Managers over on the Sprint Premiere boards confirmed that the phones will ship overnight. I think the 2-5 days is to cover possible processing time.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vandelay007:
Yeah - pretty pumped that I got my order in - I have Wednesday and Thursday off from work - so even if its then, that's fine!

Can't wait till all the threads start about when HTC will unlock the bootloader....oh, wait........... haha
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:
Wild West you say? Well partnerrr bring down em a couple of em here good beers n well howdy yippy kay yay yeeehaawwwww partnerrr!

Got my order in.. according to Sprint Premier Overnight Shipping is included!!! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] #Winning#:
Got Mine! Its too bad though that people choose to post the link considering its supposed to be for Premier members. Not bagging your cause just think that it should be strictly for those who pay for it.

[HTC EVO 3D] THEGAMEPLAY94:
even htc had a few typos on their site...probably rushed it
[HTC EVO 3D] fowenati:
So many typos and mistakes with the 3D lately on specs and such. HTC's site says it has an 8MP rear camera lol
[HTC EVO 3D] ScrapSilicon:
I'd almost posted something exactly like what you've posted in a different thread ..and here you are :D and :( day for the sero crew apparently
[HTC EVO 3D] zx6rarcher:
Just a heads up... SERO can't upgrade online and when you call into Telesales they will not/can not do the transaction over the phone since it will convert you to another plan and you will lose your SERO. Best bet is to call *2 when they are open later today because they can actually go into the account, change the plan around and put you back on SERO.

Hope this helps.

I guess I will wait to see what the email says whenever it is sent out and call in to a local store and see if I can pick it up in store tomorrow, or call employee care in the morning. If I can't do either, I'll just do what I did with the Evo and pick it up at Walmart on a cold sale for full price and activate it at home.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
Got one ordered... it says 2-5 days? I thought it was overnight shipping/\.
[HTC EVO 3D] rockypr:
Free Shipping? So I think the phone will arrive in June 24, or 25... Damm
[HTC EVO 3D] aaron130:
People, THEY ALWAYS say 2-5 days! It is to cover their asses! I have ordered MANY phones from Sprint.com and it ALWAYS says 2-5 days and I ALWAYS get it in ONE DAY.
[HTC EVO 3D] lrosenman:
Ordered. If they release them on 6/21 (LIKELY), they'll be 1-2 day UPS.

They always say 2-5 days, but I always get them within a day or 2. Likely we'll have these puppies Wednesday or Thursday depending on where you are relative to UPS's hub in Lexington KY.
[HTC EVO 3D] trim81:
DAMMIT, my account was an original SERO. Been upgraded to Everything Data Family plan for over 2 years now (with 5 lines) ---aka, I havent been sero for 2+ years

I get this dreaded message:

We're sorry, but the number you entered has been identified as part of the Everything Plus Referral Program (formerly Sprint Exclusive Referral Offer/SERO). Please visit www.sprint.com/everythingplus to complete your Everything Plus phone upgrade, or you may call an Everything Plus sales representative by phone at 1-888-882-4030 to place your order.
[HTC EVO 3D] snarebum:
you mean Louisville, KY.

my hometown! :DDDD
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
I know, this is the only time I'd ever complain about there ONLY being a free option. Haha, I wanted to pay for overnight. It cant possibly arrive later then Friday can it? I just hope its not coming from 5 day CA UPS ground zone! Would be great if it shipped to me in WI from IL or something. Next day! I think Sprint uses FedEx so at the very slowest it would be 3 days.
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
well I just ordered mine. I was sitting at the last page, waiting to click the button, thinking about if I should just stick with my pre order at sprint, or do this. Before I knew it i (accidentally:p) hit the checkout button. I'm hoping it doesn't show up tomorrow, lol. I will be gone all day long and no one will be here to accept. Anyone have any clue what the procedure is if I'm not home to get it? I certainly don't want it to be left at my door (live in an apartment complex). I assume a phone isn't something they'd leave out, so it'll probably end up at a post office:mad:

I'm probably the only one hoping it isn't overnight! I'm hoping it gets here Thursday!:D
[HTC EVO 3D] robnelle:
Aaaand the Sprint site goes down. Good thing I ordered mine already. I am worried though because there was some weird glitch with the address and It's not showing up the way I put it in when I ordered. I wanted it shipped to my job and instead of having my name, my jobs name and my jobs address, it shows my name and my job address-twice. It doesn't take much to confuse UPS and FEDEX.:( Of course customer service for Telesales is now closed and I'm pretty sure by the time they open back up, the shipping label will already be generated.

Boo hiss!
