The BB I went to had 6 in stock, 2 other people behind me in line. They said they got a shipment last night which they haven't opened. That was BB in Glendora. 3rd Party Sprint store in San Dimas has them, I stop by looking for cases cause BB's cases always suck. If you try a few stores in the Westside you should be okay.

I'm home and ready to root! Sorry to guy who was first and left the store empty handed, that blows man

Just picked mine up this morning shortly after best buy opened. They had 4 now 3 for regular customers.

For anyone interested this is the Puyallup Wa Store on meridian.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PaulHBK:
I'm going to play with mine on stock sense rom for a good while before I root. But I can definitely say I will root once LTE goes live in my area so I can tether. I'm in EVO HEAVEN!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Riff76:
Rooting is easy, just be sure to update your HTC drivers first AND restart your machine, if you are on windows

I was up at 3am no thanks to noisy people in the parking lot of this hotel. Couldn't get back to sleep. Anyway I was at our corp sprint store 30 minutes before opening, and by the time they opened, only two people were behind me. They seemed to have plenty of stock on hand. Now I have my new Evo LTE on charge! Just have to read up on the three dot fix and menu remap. Happy Camper here! Congrats to all who got one. And bummers to those who got ripped by bs.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] flex360:

I'm debating on just doing root or HTC dev.. might wait a month to do HTC dev or soff but this phone was worth moving my upgrade up that's for sure

yeah..waiting for s-off is pretty much useless as you can just about do everything you'd want to do besides flash kernels..

getting rid of 3dot is worth rooting now for

I do.t see where they got s-off they got supercid and unlock.... And a couple people by HTC deving to unlock their phone ended up being magically s-off
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NewZJ:
FYI denver peoples. the Sams club at Quebec/C-470 has 3 left :)

i'm already home and within 3 minutes had my Evo rooted with my Mac using the One Click Root in the dev section. EFFORTLESS!

now to get TB to see my previous backups from the sdcard EDIT: preferences "backup location" can be changed
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RedWingsFan:
Link to one click root you used? There are a few options.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BrianBaker:
didnt the one x get s off through something AT&T Added to the phone..i believe the exploit they used is specific to AT&T
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
They got unlock via HTC dev and to do that they had to hexedit something and it gave them supercid a couple people by doing that gave their phone soff as well. I just went over and looked they do not have soff currently. Also a guy in China got soff by modding the thing that makes a gold card.... As I guess the China model is similar to att version.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Riff76:
Interesting, just saw that they got s-off on Endgadget or one of those blogs.

I have full confidence we will get s-off, people are working on it and we don't even know it. Just like Alpharev last year with the 3D.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SecretAgentHam:
a little late to the party here but i managed to get my phone. thanks to everyone in this thread for keeping me informed. appreciate it guys. absolutely stunning phone but the size is going to need some getting used to. i'm sure it'll grow on me.

Sprint local store? I can only go to Corporate because of Sero..believe it or not those 3rd party sprint stores mess up Sero too...Thanks for the heads up though..I also took it upon myself to call all of my sprint shops in central FL today..None of them had any and most of them were shocked when i told them Best Buy was selling them to pre order customers today from the store.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TaintedByte:
Called a Corp store today and the girl said that no launch day has been announced but it will most likely be next week.

My local sprint store is telling me the launch date is June 10th.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BrianBaker:
If that were true i'd be fine with it..Just announce something...And I'm sure if there were any talks about June 10 ISN would have relayed that info..Dudes in Sprint stores don't know much about anything.

<<I am a victim of Apple patent #5,946,647>>
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PhreakAccident:
Yep, my local store said launch date would be Wednesday. Though the leaked information that in-store pre-orders should arrive today, if they didn't already arrive last night. If that's the case, I'm hoping to get mine tonight or at the latest by tomorrow.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] firmbiz94:
My buddy at target just assured me mmy phone will be there today and is scheduled to arrive around 4 he then sent me the tracking info showing it was out for delivery via fedex not ups ..guess target uses them
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jessesse:
I also preordered it at my local sprint store. The employees there are really clueless. They told me it was being held in customs still.. I just said "ok, its not."

Sprint does really specialize in making smart people feel dumb.

I went to my car and dialed *2 immediately and they put me on with a supervisor who said they didn't want to say another day and then be wrong again.

They also asked if it was my first time calling about it, so they must be getting there lines blown up at this point.

They never sent me an email, so I showed up on launch day (even though I knew it wasn't there) just to make a point. I said "well can I make sure I'm on the preorder list, because I was never emailed or informed about the delay?"

She said I was still on the list...

errr...

Keep in mind I have had sprint for about 13 years:banghead:

I hope the launch day is tomorrow, Not sure if they would just do pre-orders first though once they get stock in at Sprint stores. I'd love to find a store tomorrow selling non pre-orders, somewhere like Sams Club, Target, etc. but I'm not holding my breath.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rippley05:
I doubt it, have they ever done a launch on Saturday? I don't know, but hopefully it will be next week sometime at least.

Oh God if its next Friday, this will be the longest week ever.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] purock:
I just walked to the Sprint store across the street. Asked them to be placed on the waiting list and they said "sorry we don't have one. Come back next week. Probably at the end of the week."

I hate this launch so much. I didn't think it could get worse than the OG Evo launch.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rieksfier:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Riff76:
Thank Apple for the crappy launch. I knew it was gonna be mess but not this bad. The 3D launch wasn't as big so this is the perfect storm of people upgrading at the same time.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] purock:
Vent-time (Puts on MC Hammer baggy pants)

I blame everybody. Apple for their stupid vague patents. Customs for being dumb asses and holding the phone even though it wasn't in violation. HTC for not making sure their house was in order. Sprint for their lack of Communication and orderly processes. Amazon for not figuring out how to give me a date as to when I'll get my phone.

Then ofcourse, I blame myself for my lack of impatience and need for instant gratification. Both are character defects.

But then again, I'm just too legit to quit over this phone.

Waiting Lists

Hello Everyone,

The manager at the local store I do a lot of business with put me on the waiting list. Says he is getting 6 and 1 of those are mine. Will call me once they arrive. Anxiously awaiting his call :rolleyes:

Hope we all get our Evo's. Hang in there everyone :cool:

Monnie
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jessesse:
I called and they still refuse to tell me a certain day. I normally am not one to complain, but I asked them what the purpose of preordering was if everybody else is getting them already.

I also asked about the free case people that preordered online are receiving and he said he would call the store and ask... (Hold music)Came back on and said "no. Anything else I can help you with?"

Stupid..

I told him that I didn't know there was that big of a disadvantage preordering at the store..

I really put them on the spot, and asked them things that they could not answer. That's all we want is some answers...

They also said third party retailers (best buy, target) receive the phone straight from the warehouse and that stores have to wait for them to go to corperate? I think.. either way it had to make another stop somewhere before the sprint store..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BrianBaker:
So I spoke with my corporate store manager today again. They still did not receive their shipments. He said he expect to see them by wednesday next week and then went on to tell me about radio shack and best buy currently having them and that he doesn't understand why his store does not have some. Either way it's going to be a long weekend at least I know I don't have to wait for it anymore until next week

fpineda101, if you haven't already, I would pre-order at a Best Buy. I just did today and apparently there are people who still haven't picked theirs up. Best Buy only holds pre-ordered phones for 72hours. So there is still a possibility to get one Sun-Mon.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Westfire:
That really stinks. I have never preordered before but glad I did this time. I hope you get yours soon.

Just all the awesome design choices they put in this thing is all covered up now..And I dont knw if this is a good thing or a bad thing but the phone just doesn't seem like its any bigger than the Evo 3D...Its so light and thin i dont know how to explain it..It just seems to feel just right.....The phone is awesome and you will be pleased, disregard what I said earlier..I couldn't explain it the way i was thinking it

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Skizzy034:
That's why I think they shouldn't have released the pre-orders until a new launch date was set in stone. It's gonna piss a lot of late pre-order/upgrade without pre-order people off.

Um, Apple makes their own SoC correct?. I doubt there would ever be an iPhone with a qualcomm chip. I apologize if I'm wrong. Correct me if I am.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] salvasaur:
I don't think G&E's announcement has anything to do with a launch date for 2 reasons. 1) Why would they wait until Tuesday to announce that, if they already knew? 2) Sounds like they're getting a big, new website.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Riff76:
All true but again its only rumor at this point and the reason I see it is for LTE

I agree with the not releasing preorders until there was a new launch date. Sprint was probably in panic mode when decided to ship the preorders in customs.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Mike Fitz:
Have to wonder, since Best Buy is the only retailer that has actually released these to customers (afaik), if they just said "screw the official release date we're not waiting any longer" or if they were the only retailer to get any phones.

I don't know if there's a serious shortage in the number of phones HTC was able to get out or what's going on but with places like Amazon not even having any to send (or so they say) it seems really odd.
