[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
Thanks. I'm pretty much set on buying it. Especially since I found out I can get it for only $200 at Bestbuy with a contract extension. Did anyone opt for the 200$ with contract extension? I believe it will work for people with pre-existing contracts.
[HTC One S] dragion:
I extended my contract and purchased my One S on release day @ T-Mobile Store.

First went to Bestbuy, since they were selling for $200 w/contract, but they were only selling the One S as a mail only order...not directly from the store.

Would have to be shipped to me and not received for another 2-3 business days and with no data transfer...I would need to bring it in to them to do it.

I went over to T-Mobile and got it for $250 w/ $50 mail-in-rebate.

Had all my data transferred from my HD2 to my One S, also grabbed me a bodyglove case to keep it safe (I ended returning it and got the HTC/T-Mobile screen protector instead and w/the 30% off coupon, I got $20 back.

I know have the Cruzerlite Clear Android Case...perfect case for the One S.

Best phone I've ever own! :cool:
[HTC One S] jacewt:
Oh, unless you mean you aren't quite at 2 years on contract. Then, nevermind :p but for anyone whose contract is up, this is a good price.

You can get it for less, 125, hold on. Let me get a link.

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/05/wirefly-memorial-day-sale-offers-extra-25-discount-on-htc-one-s/

Wish I'd waited, but I didn't do too bad for 185 at costco.
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
My contract is 1 out of 2 years old. If I extend it I will get it for only 200, correct? Do all bestbuys have this order only or was it only b/c the phone was new? THANKS!!!
[HTC One S] dlorde:
We seem to have it fairly good in the UK for contracts - I got a free upgrade to the HOS (on 2 year contract) from my old HTC Desire, two months before the old 2 year contract expired. I'm now paying less (~$44pm) than I was for the old phone, and get 1GB free wifi hotspot use + 500Mb network data, unlimited texts & 300 mins of calls. I could have got it a tiny bit cheaper through a 3rd party, but didn't want the complications if something went wrong.

What phone did you used to have in sprint? I moved from sprint as well and I'm liking the phone too ans the speeds are so good between 5-16mnps :D coma pare to sprint 0.20-.85mbps on my galaxy nexus (really good phone bad network )
[HTC One S] kolyan:
Despite poor quality screen, slower CPU, not great camera, and slower modem, I still prefect Galaxy Nexus over One S
[HTC One S] s10shane:
Poor quality screen? I think it looks Damn good. Camera is better then the galaxy nexus hands down. CPU is much quicker then the one in the galaxy nexus. I came from the galaxy nexus and the one s is way better expect I miss the bigger screen and the 720p display and that's it and my 4g on the one s is way quicker lol
[HTC One S] Totòòò:
Then you must have not checked out other high end phones;)
[HTC One S] s10shane:
I've owned every high end smartphone from T-Mobile and I've had the gsm galaxy nexus so I've checked out many different types of screens. I just think people are just nip picky
[HTC One S] Closed Source Project:
You guys need to chill about the screen quality. Pentile displays are not really that bad and, at least for me, there's not too much of a difference at all between the GN and HOS. And actually, this phone is faster than the GN as it does clock faster. No difference in modem other than the network it runs on, T-Mo can be the fastest at time (sans wimax which is very geographically limited).
[HTC One S] Xhaotic:
Just got it today. Ditched my SGS2...

Needless to say, I fracking love it.
[HTC One S] luddeblaesild:
Totally in love with this phone, got it yesterday coming from a desire s. Words can't describe the speed combined with the awesome design!
[HTC One S] Fazettit:
A clear yes. If my device will be lost, I would immediately by a new one.

Design, size, speed and technical specification is great.
[HTC One S] dragion:
As far as I know, my Bestbuy's don't carry it in store...you should ask them if they do around your area.

I was told that they don't "Officially" carry T-Mobile products, but can be ordered.

There are no T-Mobile displays at any of my local Bestbuy stores...they do have all the other carriers though.

They are an "Authorized" T-Mobile dealer.
[HTC One S] wilcoholic:
I didn't want a crappy cheap plastic phone (yes even a plastic unibody such as the 1X or lumia 900). I made a list of all the phones that were made out of glass, steel or aluminum and there are only a handful of those devices. The iphone 4s, htc 1S and the sony xperia P. Out of those phones the 1S is the best.

Of course you are going to have to make some compromises when you compare it with phones like the SGS3 or the 1X. For me the premium feel, slimness, krait CPU, cheaper price was enough to trump the display of the 1X which was the only spec I was interested in from the 1X.
[HTC One S] murray68w:
Love this device. Was coming from HTC sensation and I would say its the next generation of that. I enjoy aopk and being able to root and customize it. Atutu benchmark clocked it at 7230 so I was impressed compared to the 5100 I was getting with the HTC sensation. Rumor has it the sgiii will be out on the 20th of june so it might be worth waiting if that's what you like. Take care.

(Before saying I should post this in the Blackstone section, keep in mind that I want not only the Blackstone users, but everybody to know about this)

Hey everybody,

So, I have a HTC Touch HD T8282 and, well, there isn't simply development for this poor phone. You see, this phone is the father of the masterpiece HTC HD2, but unfortunally, nobody as this phone, so there isn't development on this phone. The only OS being developed, without counting the Windows Mobile ROMs, is Android. Maybe we should just try to evolute this OS, since wp7 can't run on this phone, but the problem is that, right now, Android

only

boots from the SDcard (HaRET).

I've made this post on the General forum, because it's the only way I can make people to know about this.

I really want to flash some good Android ROMs on this device, but I have no idea of how to do this, and there is nobody doing it anyways!

I just want people that have Blackstone to try to make some development for the device, or if they can't, just donate it! If you want to donate, talk to me. The best Android avaiable for it right now is the FRX07.1 build.

Please help this device!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aleks_:
I called T-Mobile customer service yesterday to get my unlock code for my T989 and it was sent earlier today. The unlock process was simple and I used my friends AT&T sim card to get the unlock screen to pop up as per the steps provided in the email. Everything worked fine and service was excellent. Then came along a few surprises after I put back in my T-Mobile sim card. Before unlocking my phone I could not get a good signal at my home and it was always on Edge or one bar of 4g (on a good day). Lo and behold.....the signal was now at 4 bars of 4g with my T-Mobile sim card as opposed to Edge before my unlock. To be sure that this wasn't just a fluke and I was roaming now that I unlocked, I turned off roaming and left only packet data for T-Mobile. I rebooted my phone. After the reboot my network for T-Mobile remained at a full 4g with 4 bars. I began to think perhaps unlocking the phone allowed me to pick up some stronger signals as an indication that T-Mobile's refarming of their wavebands could be taking place as I type this. I live in Austin and I'm just curious to hear the thoughts and opinions as to why unlocking my phone increased my signal. Refarming efforts by T-Mobile maybe? All in all, my unlocking experience has been positive and I thought I'd share my story so that maybe this will help others and provide the same results and experience.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JPOKeefe:
Was the unlock code free?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aleks_:
Yup. T-Mobile does not charge you if you are a current customer and you bought the phone from them. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aleks_:
I doubt that it was a placebo effect.....something changed and the unlock helped make it better.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Ramhardy:
+1, same phone,using the same sim, in the same area just because it's unlocked doesn't mean its going to magically get better signal. Not trying to sound mean, just saying.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aleks_:
Yeah. I mean, hopefully others will have the same good experience I did and see improvement in the same areas as I did. Just sharing my positive experience.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] JPOKeefe:
Did you buy the phone full price or through an upgrade?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aleks_:
Got an upgrade and paid the difference.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] starskyrob:
Not a placebo effect.

Here's what happens when you unlock a phone:

Back in the early 90's phones were not carrier locked. Very few bands were used. Mostly the 1900mhz band and where you lived pretty much determined your carrier.

No need for locking.

Now when you unlock your phone a microscopic unicorn emerges from the ARM7 processor and hacks the gibson until your phone can actually recieve signal on every mhz band known to man, and unicorns.

This has been proven by both Dr P. Wi Herman of The Matrix Institute and Shemp of the Tres Stoo Ges Foundation for Science And Awesomeness.

You guys need to do some reasearch before attacking this guy. He's obviously experiencing a real improvement.

Hello XDA!

I'm moving to Seoul this fall for exchange studies for a year which I'm super-psyched about!

I'm getting really sick of my ageing Nokia and want to upgrade to a Android smartphone. I've read that mobile phones in Korea is really expensive(?) though and I thought it might be better to pick up a cheap used GSM Galaxy Nexus(~320USD/250EUR) before I go.

As far as I have understood the GSM Galaxy Nexus should work fine in Korea with their WCDMA 2100MHz 3G? Wikipedia states that the GSM GNexus and the Korean GNexus share the same hardware so I assume that it does but it's best to ask just in case. :)

I'm wondering though if this is a good idea? How does the mobile phone plans in Korea work? I've read that it can be hard to get a phone work in Korea with telecom operators blocking IMEI numbers that isn't sold from them? But some say it will work fine and some say it wont, it's really confusing.

I would love if someone with experience could share some advice and I would be very grateful for any help!

[General Questions and Answers] belgarn:
Thanks for your answer Allanitomwesh. The Pantech Vega Racer 2 seems like a great phone but will probably cost an arm or a leg and it uses CDMA for 2G which will certainly effect the reception in the back-country here in Sweden.

I was interested in the Galaxy Nexus since it's a cheap world-phone, but I was mainly concerned that I've read that people have had issues getting their phones to work in Korea due to the telecom operators. Some say it will work fine and some say it won't, so I hoped someone with recent experience could enlighten me.

I've tried to find a decent site to look up electronics prices in Korea and how much mobile plans cost with little luck. Would also be very grateful for any tips regarding that.

I think i got a little problem but i dont know for sure. No matter what rom i install on my phone the smallband version always stayed at i9001xxxkpk. A friend of mine has the same phone and his smallband version changes when he installs a new rom.

Is this wrong or is the smallband version always the same for the provider you got etc?

Thanks is advance

to change the baseband flash a stock rom with odin.

after that flash feamod recovery and then you can use every custom rom.

[HTC Inspire 4G] Four-Fifty-X:
Do not do a factory reset with this ROM, unless you want to lose all the data on your SD card.

Nice...
[HTC Inspire 4G] cwhitney24:
I wouldn't really go blaming them right away. Did you select the factory reset option from the rom itself or from in recovery? Its never a good idea to select factory reset or upgrade from with in the rom if you are rooted. It will just mess everything up. Most sense roms you flash will have those options, just do not use them.

Always do your wiping and resets from with in recovery before flashing a new rom.

If you lost everything on your SD card and haven't done anything else to it yet, look online for some programs that will help you recovery your lost data. Sometimes they work sometimes they don't.

"I love my Springfield XD"
[HTC Inspire 4G] Agoattamer:
Most likely this happened because that ROM recognizes the sd card as an internal storage and not as an external sd card. So a factory reset would erase the internal storage. Something to remember on those phones that have 16/32GB of storage built in.
