Selling your S2 for this should still be worth it regardless. If you care that much about music, you should invest in good head/earphones yourself, its rare anything ever comes bundled with good ones these days, especially with the costs of the handset being £500+ ;)
[HTC One X] mitsirfishi@hotmail.co.uk:
Im using them for the first time I had a browse on the net mainly good reviews on them I contacted them the other day as regards the HTC ONE X and when will they be getting stock which should be today/tommorow

[HTC One X] :
Same here! Should be here this morning! Clove are outstanding.
[HTC One X] qpop:
Well I called Three first thing today and there is no consignment number, so it looks like I'll be getting mine tomorrow (5th April) as suspected.
[HTC One X] delboy98:
I'm in Central London, so this afternoon I might trawl the length and breadth of Oxford Street to see if any stores have got any physical stock in.

Will keep people posted.
[HTC One X] MancUK:
For those looking to buy from a T-Mobile (UK) shop I confirmed with my local store that they expect the phone by tomorrow (5th April) & I received the below in answer to a query about having the S & the X in stock as more confirmation from T-Mobiles official Twitter account:-

T-Mobile UK Support @TMobileUKhelp

Yes, both handsets will be available of T-Mobile from Thursday, check your local store for confirmation they'll have stock available.

Manc.

On the back of the headphones.....

I am running one s Rom on sensation with xbeats. I have standard headphones provided with a Samsung galaxy s 2 and the sound is amazing seriously. It's so loud clear and bassy. U will get awesome sound regardless of what headphones u have.....unless its a pair from poundland of course lol
[HTC One X] Goku80:
I know mate. And due to having beats audio it should have good sound no matter what headphones I will be using. But you would expect flagship phone to come with the earphones though. Getting my one tomorrow by the way confirmed by three. Getting white version
[HTC One X] debully:
you do realise that Beats is just a s-curve software EQ preset? This has been proven is many tests. Also the DAC in the One-X is nothing like audiophile quality. Thats not enough to put me off BTW, I have a decent MP3 player and earphones already.

Just pointing out that beats is just a marketing gimik designed to polish a turd. If your ears think this is acceptable then all's well and dandy. I wouldnt base any purchasing decisions on it tho'
[HTC One X] WhiteHartMart:
My Handtec order will be delivered by Benji bewtween 14:06 and 15:06 - nice detail in my delivery email. :D

Sent using my Galaxy S2 with Resurrection Remix 1.0 :)
[HTC One X] isaw:
My One X (grey) from Expansys is now "out for delivery".

Interesting travel journey - from France, to Germany, to Heathrow.

Anyhow, if it shows up soon, I'll post a couple pics.
[HTC One X] tsleng:
I shall be calling them up later around noon to see if mine is still on for tomorrow from 3.

They said i will receive a text of the expected arrival time but i ain't banking on that so I will call to see if i can extract a tracking number.

I ordered the grey btw.

O/T I just checked 3's website and it is up for sale. I also noticed that the One S is only retailing for £370 on PAYG. That is a seriously good price I think considering that they are selling the SG2 for £420. HOX PAYG for £450
[HTC One X] JDR0iD:
Dialaphone delivery is 11th :'(( I have complained that I will go to carphone warehouse but I have £31 deal with them and cpw and p4u are now 36 a month
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
Cancelled my DAP order and went with affordablemobiles on Three @ £29 (£27.19 after 3 months half price redemption). DAP offered me the handset price refunded, but I refused.

Simply decided unlimited data was better for me to have over the next 2 years. I also think I have a chance of getting the phone tomorrow with them, DAP was a complete mess on deliveries.
[HTC One X] qpop:
They'll only provide you with a consignment number on the morning of delivery.
[HTC One X] tsleng:
Although we'll be fighting for bandwith on 3, I think you got the right deal there :P

With dropbox, streaming services becoming popular, you will have peace of mind with unlimited data.
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Same thing here, I shall stay with DAP unless T-Mobile give me the same deal once I request my PAC code - 6 days really isn't long for the saving imo (£28.50 for me rather than £36!)
[HTC One X] OysterCatcheRR:
Agreed. I am glad I have finally sorted out my Google Music account, although uploading my entire library has taken daaaays.... :S
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
I think so too :)

I'm on the ultimate 500 plan, which doesn't include tethering, but I'm wondering how lenient Three are on 'lite' use of tethering? Or is there sketchy ways to disguise it? :p

On my Desire I used the WiFi hotspot app a few times on GiffGaff, they didn't seem to mind.

Tethering is NOT a requirement however, I'm happy on the Ultimate 500 plan.

---------- Post added at 09:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 AM ----------

Any guides on how to use a Google music account in the UK?
[HTC One X] stezo2k:
I really want this phone, gotta wait til December for my upgrade though :(

Sent from my Desire HD running Virtuous Affinity Sense 3.5
[HTC One X] dwj:
Just had mine delivered from clove UK. Excellent service & comms from them if it helps anyone. And the phone looks awesome too...
[HTC One X] OysterCatcheRR:
Sure, you want to download and install OpenVPN from here, and also sign up to privatetunnel.com Here.

Sign in to private tunnel using your new account (it's completely free), and choose a server from the drag-down list on the next page. You are actually fine with the default (San Jose, CA), and press the big "CONNECT" button.

It will ask you to put in your username and password again, and then connect you to the server using OpenVPN.

Once you are connected, (check it has worked by going to http://whatismyipaddress.com/) go to music.google.com, which should now be asking you to log in - rather than telling you it isn't for your region.

Log in using your normal Google account.

It will ask you to agree to licensing agreement, and then download one small bit of software to your comp for uploading.

Now once you have uploaded ONE song, google music will be authenticated for your account and you wont need to use OpenVPN or PrivateTUnnel any more.

Upload one or two (not your whole collection as you only have 100mb on your free private tunnel account) and then right click on openvpn system tray and disconnect.

That should be it! Let me know if you have any questions - but be warned, uploading is LOOONG#

EDIT: Also, I used my Desire for tethering for three full days using a basic Three contract, about 6 months ago, and they didnt seem to have any problem with it
[HTC One X] west2cool:
what color did you get
[HTC One X] leegil:
Handtec.co.uk has the HTC One X for £485 sim free then GiffGaff for Unlimited data.
[HTC One X] chrisjcks:
GiffGaff

£25 a month, no contract, sim only.

1500 mins

Truly unlimited texts

Truly unlimited data

Beware - Other networks who state 'unlimited' offer:

3000 texts

'only' 1gb Internet
[HTC One X] PurpleRob:
They also do a bundle with the media link for an extra £50. Instead of the usual £80 for it.
[HTC One X] :
Is there one for PAYG? I've been saving :-)
[HTC One X] Evil-Dragon:
Just pre-ordered my One X through Dialaphone using Quidco with the £65 cashback.

Ordered the Panther £28.50 - 600 Anytime Xnet Mins + Unlimited Text Messages + 1GB Data deal with the free HTC MediaLink HD. Costs £59.99 for the phone (which is in turn paid for by the cashback really)

I'm already on contract with Orange however after 9 months I can buy myself out for £340ish so it's a lot cheaper than buying a sim-free off Amazon for £499.

Dialaphone are now stating 11th April for delivery.
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Any idea when the cashback is applied? Is it as soon as you are charged??
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
Within 2 months (for payout).

Or if you mean tracked on Quidco, mines was within hours.
[HTC One X] hello00:
where can i preorder the phone without a contract?
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Mine isn't displaying that I have made the order at all?
[HTC One X] Evil-Dragon:
Amazon?
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
When you ordered on dialaphone did you do so through a custom quidco themed dialaphone checkout?
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
I believe so - the link certainly had dialaphone the entire way. Will cancel the order and order again - thinking I am swapping for a white version anyway
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
To be safe whenever I use quidco I disable every adblocker (I whitelist quidco, but I still disable) or anything that can mess with cookies. I then clear the cache/cookies on my browser, and open up 1 tab with quidco. Navigate to the site I want on quidco, click the visit link, wait for the site to load in a new tab and then order.

Might be a little overkill, but it only takes a few minutes prep, then another 5 mins to order.
[HTC One X] freemantle:
I ordered on Wednesday but Quidco hasn't tracked. The checkout had the Quidco reference on the address bar. I'll chase it tomorrow, and cancel if necessary.

Do they still pay Quidco if you give a recommend a friend number when asked?
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
It shouldn't take that long but with an influx of orders it may. Definitely watch your adblock settings if you use any blocker, as a lot of lists block tracking cookies these days which Quidco uses.
[HTC One X] Ruudfood:
Got an email from Vodafone saying that it's available for pre-order. Prices are ridiculous. If they can't do me the phone for less than £50 for 18 months on my current £20 a month tarriff, I'm off.

Would rather pay someone else if I get nothing for loyalty. We'll see what they say when I call them up tomorrow.
[HTC One X] dcfowler:
Ruudford, I don't think you have a hope! On that deal total cost is 410, the phone costs more than that sim free!
[HTC One X] sebbo90:
Yeah that would be stupidly cheap, I don't think you stand a chance
[HTC One X] Horridge:
How do upgrades work via the 3rd party sites? Can they offer you a better price for your current tariff, or a shorter contract time? I'm currently on the Panther 30 tariff, with unlimited mobile internet, so would like to keep that, but would like to pay a bit less or it only be 12-18month
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
What do you expect? Absolutely ridiculous comment.
[HTC One X] qpop:
If you install a CM-variant ROM the stock wifi tethering isn't picked up by Three anyway, and I've been tethering using my Three PAYG sim card for the past month with no issues this way.
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
Google music is working great for me now :)

Probably going to take weeks to upload my collection on this slow internet I have :(
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Ultimately, my issue with 3 is there coverage seems awful around where I live (relatively rural) - whereas T-Mobile and Orange offer brilliant coverage for me. But I would love Ul Data.

ALso, thanks to the Google Music UK information, signing up now ;)
[HTC One X] dwj:
Grey version. Looks great & the polycarbonate is not like plastic like a Gnexus or whatever. Feels premium stuff.
[HTC One X] SufyaanP:
I just called Dial a phone up to find out about my media link because i never got a confirmation e-mail and to asked about delivery. she told me that the phone had been advertised incorrectly and I will be getting a GREY phone instead of a white!!!:confused:

I just agreed as I've still got a week before the phone arrives so i can cancel but has anyone else had the same problem?
[HTC One X] bobsie41:
Just got confirmation e-mail from buymobilephones.net confirming dispatch and delivery for tomorrow. (ordered 8.40pm on 2/4/12) :D
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
What a bizarre problem? What planet is she on, my order is still white and shall remain white with DAP.
[HTC One X] SufyaanP:
Same here, my orders still on white too, but she also offered me black and said if I didn't like colour then send it back and ask for another.:(
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
I am happy with that :)

Buymobiles.net has a sweet offer on T-Mobile..

1.5gb data, 100mins, ul texts - £26 a month

Only thing is the Orange swapables etc look pretty nice still, and for £2.50 a month more.. including mdealink hd..
[HTC One X] isaw:
Has anyone managed to get the HDMI dongle yet?

My mate on phones4u has been told his phone will ship for the 7th but without the dongle as it's not out yet.

I have it on order from Expansys but that's still not in stock.
[HTC One X] dainesefreak:
Just had a web chat with Phones4U and they are still saying the 7th. I have still not had the no Media Link email yet though.

Also had an interesting chat with Vodafone who can't match the Phones4U 12 month £36 per month deal, but offered me 18 months @ £36 per month with a 50% discount on the monthly for 6 months.
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Thanks for the help, I do have one question though.

Is it possible to then get the Google Music app on Android, as I can't get it due to country restrictions?
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
My music collection is 3698 items, google music manager says 3,652. Will it tell me at the end why it's missing items?

It's uploading an iTunes library, so all my files are MP3.
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
I can't answer your question, but that is going to take forever :P

I am only attempting to upload 645 for now, and I have done seven so far. In 15 minutes.
[HTC One X] lewyharvey:
On it's way!

Mines on it's way, good times ;- Mr Lewis Harvey

This email is to confirm that your order (#2011729) has been dispatched today and should be delivered on the 05/04/2012.

Use this link to track the delivery of your parcel with Parcelforce: http://www2.parcelforce.com/track-trace? trackNumber

This tracking link will become live for you to track after 6.30pm on the day of dispatch.
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
I know :eek: :D

If it takes weeks so be it. I'm quite liking the idea of accessing my music from the cloud as long as Google doesn't change to charge you.

Who did you order with?
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Yeah same thoughts here really. It may take ages but with this kind of storage I won't mind with the end result. I am wondering if my sixth form blocks it, if not I will use their wifi while there to avoid using my mobile internet..

Not to mention the 25GB dropbox we get :D
[HTC One X] paul211b:
come on Vodafone get these sent out...........
[HTC One X] Aeneas:
Are you sure? You might have some stray non-MP3 or non-audio items in the library. It might be a good idea to check the files yourself. If they're in folders and such, try something like Mp3Tag and scan the directory and then sort by file type, then highlight all audio files.

I don't think it'll tell you later.
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
Only thing that concerns me with that is if I fill it up, what are my options after 2 years? Forced to pay, or able to download everything first before losing space?

---------- Post added at 11:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:19 AM ----------

100%

My iTunes library has been carefully built, all mp3, all tagged, all album work, the lot. 95% are ripped in v0, some may be 192 or 320.

Ah well, I'll try find out what hasn't uploaded once it's done by checking artists/albums.
[HTC One X] Aeneas:
It'd have to become a big problem at your sixth form before they begin to care, so I don't think you need to worry.

You might want to check if your uploads are being throttled by the Google Music app.
[HTC One X] qpop:
Try installing the APK I extracted from the ILWT ROM for Desire Z, should work.

Check out my sig to bag yourself another 20+gb for free.
[HTC One X] BigladUK:
Mac or PC ? If Mac go to system prefences then Music Manager and on the first screen it tells you how many it hasn't uploaded and why
[HTC One X] mitsirfishi@hotmail.co.uk:
She has been dispatched w00t ! buymobilesphones.net ftw :D

This email is to confirm that your order has been dispatched today and should be delivered on the 05/04/2012.

Roll on tommorow
[HTC One X] Aeneas:
There have been a lot of questions about this, but I haven't read enough of the threads (in various places) to say whether there's a definitive answer.

Two years is a long time. I doubt that you need to worry about losing data. Either there will be a retrieval window (i.e. downloads but not uploads) like with paid Google storage (their window might even be indefinite, if I remember correctly), or they'll start sending you reminders and maybe give you a smaller window after the two years.

If we're lucky they'll say whatever, keep the storage. They seem like a customer friendly company. It's more likely that they'll offer a discounted rate.
[HTC One X] Audioboxer:
PC!

Is there no way for PC users to do something similar?
[HTC One X] isaw:
Mine arrived. Grey. Looks very nice. Quality is very very good - one of the better HTC phones if not the best finish.

Just charging it up. Will slap in the SIM shortly and see how we go. :D
[HTC One X] :
Mine has arrived! Damn this thing is big! Sure I'll get used to it though. It's killing me not using it until it's fully charged up (following the instructions closely as can't afford to damage the battery) but orange haven't delivered my micro Sim yet anyway.

Top marks to Clove.co.uk
[HTC One X] DaveDesire:
That's pretty good, well if they'd do student discount on top of that it is.

Who were you speaking to for them to offer you 6 months half price? Sales? Upgrades? Retentions?
[HTC One X] paul211b:
Online for this deal you need to pay £139.99 for the phone
[HTC One X] isaw:
Ah. I have an old style (normal) SIM. It dont fit.

Sigh.
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
"There is a problem parsing the package" :(
[HTC One X] Rittzy:
Come on phones4u! Get them sent out and stop arsing about :( i want mine so bad lol no indication of when it's being delivered or when it's getting posted out
[HTC One X] crimsonnight:
It's hard to keep track of this thread! Is the current best option when buying SIM-free still buying from Phones4U when they have them in stock? Cheers
[HTC One X] try2:
Nice to see people starting to receive theirs. Tomorrow can't come quick enough for me.:banghead:
[HTC One X] trickyhenry:
Just spoke to affordable mobiles ans they told me stock will not arrive until tomorrow.... delivery after Easter!! Noooo!! Order being cancelled!
[HTC One X] DaveDesire:
Handset is £199 on that tariff and no mention of 6 months half-price
[HTC One X] Goku80:
haha i know what you mean..i just posted my Galaxy S2 to the person who bought it...Had a little tear run down my eyes:(:o That phone was my baby and first android phone..

Anyways looking forward to my One X. Should be a great adventure..Quad core:eek: more powerful than my PC:D

Might go to bed from now so tomorrow can come fast enough :D
[HTC One X] dainesefreak:
Online, just went to the web site and initiated a web chat with a new sales advisor. He did ask if I was a Student or worked for various companies too.
[HTC One X] jamal6008:
I am still waiting for dialaphone. If you log onto their website the order status has been updated to Order Awaiting Dispatch.

Not sure what that's supposed to mean because the delivery date still is shown as the 11th.
[HTC One X] try2:
One more sleep! lol

I still have my trusty HTC Desire, which I'll never sell plus a Nexus S which Samsung has took 9 weeks to fix and still isn't fixed so has to be sent back. That's a story for another time tho :(
[HTC One X] manook:
Just spoke to them after reading this. Luckily they have stock and are sending out by date of pre-order. Mine has been marked for delivery tomorrow following credit check. If not ill just cancel it and pick one up in town as theres no cash back
[HTC One X] qpop:
Try this, extracted by Titanium Backup from my Dz.
[HTC One X] Goku80:
i did not want to sell my galaxy but i thought what is the point in having two phones. Plus i could do with the extra cash. I am looking forward to my One X but the thing that is a bit disappointing is not having it come with the beats earphones.

I know it is not a deal breaker but you would expect with the flagship phone to be shipped with the perfect earphones...I know beats are a gimmick and so but would be nice to see what the hype is all about..

Oh by the way my tariff that i got the phone with is £32 pounds a month for 24month contract. No extra upfront fees or anything like that. So for this kinda phone i think it is a good deal..Although i will negotiate with them more tomorrow.

Will keep you guys updated;)
[HTC One X] matw01:
Really hoping phones4u start shipping today, was told in a web chat that I should have it by the 7th.
[HTC One X] DaveDesire:
Nice one. So they offered 18-months at £36 with 10% student discount on top and 6 months half-price? £139 or £199 for the phone?

Their 12-month £41p/m plan less the student discount works out the cheapest so far with extra data and minutes.

12 months

£36p/m

600mins

Unlimited txt

1GB data

£139.99 phone

Grand total of £571

Now if they'd give out some kind of discount on that then it could work out well.

Just looking for leverage to use when talking to T-Mobile retentions :)
[HTC One X] jamal6008:
I ordered two contracts for one x, 12 months vodafone through dialaphone and my grand total comes to about £375. 300mins unlimited txts 500mb.

That total is after tons of discounts, don't think it can be any better ;)
[HTC One X] MattyOnXperiaX10:
I'm going to get my MUM this.

Unlimited Texts

300mins

1.5GB data

£28 Per month
[HTC One X] dainesefreak:
I didn't keep the transcript of the chat unfortunately but I basically told him that I was getting the phone for £149 on 12 months @ £36 per month from Phones4U and I didn't think he could beat it.

He told me he could do a better deal and offered 18 months @ £36 per month with 900 minutes with 6 months at 50% to effectively bring the cost of the handset down to beat Phones4U. I pushed pretty hard, that's when he asked if I worked for the NHS, etc, so he could offer more of a discount. I stuck with the Phones4U deal in the end as he couldn't do the deal on 12 months, only 18.

I also tried T-Mobile retentions when I said I wanted to cancel and get my PAC, they couldn't get anywhere near Phones4U.
[HTC One X] DomCowell:
Excellent, that appears to work thanks. HOWEVER, it says would I like replace it as it is a system application (it will replace the standard Music App) - surely this is wrong, as they are two separate applications?
[HTC One X] paul211b:
Looks like Vodafone will not be delivering handsets until Tuesday 10th due to the bank holidays :mad:
[HTC One X] BaZ87:
I just gave them a call and I was told that their system says that they won't receive the phone themselves until the 11th. I then directly asked if that means we won't receive the phone until the 12th at the earliest and the agent back-tracked and said we should still receive it on the 11th.....but it's possible it might not arrive until the 12th.

I don't understand how Dialaphone haven't got these in stock yet but P4U have :/
[HTC One X] Rittzy:
I hope phones4u has them in stock, im waiting for mine to be posted, where does it say they have them in stock? Cheers
[HTC One X] qpop:
Ah, well on my Dz ROM it is a system app, which is why it's saying that (and probably why the previous apk didn't work).

Give me a minute and I'll upload one that works....
