[One (M7) General] razer1224:
Guys where should I order the developer edition?what's the difference beetween the retail one SPEC wise
[One (M7) General] Sultan of Speed:
Congrats Mahesh on your One. I should hopefully be getting my HTC One on Monday! Keeping fingers crossed. :D
[One (M7) General] sam9s:
Adding to everything you have said. That Airview is no big deal, A simple application called Wave Control Pro can do that for you, and it actually works on media players, (where it should) and the way it should. YOu can do a simple pause, play next and previous tracks by gestures. You can even launch the media player just by waving you hand and the best part is it actually works effectively. I am using it and it is very useful when I am listening to music from my HTC in my car. I just do a quick brisk wave in front of my phone and the track changes to next. If I have to pause just keep my hand for fraction of a second in front of the phone and the song pauses and then can resume in the same way.

S4 has nothing that is actually beneficial, almost all features are just a gimmick.

Orderd mine on 8th april from clove, still no update :rolleyes:

Anyone else ordered after 1st April ? , now m confused, should i just cancel my order and wait for the release in india? :eek:
[One (M7) General] numero_uno:
Can anyone confirm which of the device are going to be launched in India ?? The 32 GB Unlocked edition or the 64 GB Dev edition... I am planning to get the 32 G one from US who is returning in mid May so I checked for global warranty scheme on the One but all I got was a very vague reply stating this:

"In this regards, we would like to inform you that there will be limited support for out of country devices or the devices which are not manufactured for India. The devices manufactured for the country and the device purchased from the country should be the same to avail the warranty."

From what I understand this means that HTC has to provide warranty for the device which gets released in India. Does some one have more info on this ??
[One (M7) General] rkial:
[MENTION=2917529]sam9s[/MENTION].. thanks. I didnt know about that app.

this its pretty clear from that. they might repair it, but it wont be covered under the warranty. If it cant be repaired, I dont think they'll be giving you a replacement.

Just spoke to their CC. Said it might be next week but they dont have any confirmed date.

Sounds like it might be delayed again... but its better than the earlier "Dont know"
[One (M7) General] numero_uno:
Dats the whole issue.. I have been checking the forums for the past few days and it seems like there are some issues with the earlier batches(dead pixels, build issues).. so if I get a bad batch and they dont replace/repair it.. Il prolly be stuck with the bad device.. paying minor amounts for repairing wont be an issue but am not sure of how much does HTC charge for such repairs so a bit apprehensive :(
[One (M7) General] :
Htc one has global warranty .. it will cost 35$ everytime for some shipment abroad if there is any issue (you need replacement etc) , warranty will be here in India too , but you will need to pay 35$ everytime you send it to service center ... And it will take some time (shipping it to the origin or getting replacement phone /parts from the origin of your phone will take some time )
[One (M7) General] androidindian:
that is not global warranty, it is a warranty from where the device was purchased.. so bascially ship it back to the country you imported it from and get it done.

global warranty is like apple.. you get the device from anywhere and give it to the service centre here and they repair it over here itself :)
[One (M7) General] numero_uno:
Precisely.. Whts the use of warranty if I need to pay to get any kind of service within the warranty period.. I don't think I am wrong in expecting a proper warranty considering this is HTC's flagship device and is not cheap by any means..

I just checked with their CC regarding this and they mentioned that Global warranty/ limited warranty means any hardware faults would be covered/ replaced w/o charges as One devices for all over the world would be manufactured in Taiwan.. however, the s/w can't be guaranteed as most likely the Indian and the US version are going to be different. What's irritating was he was not prepared to state the same in a mail when I requested it.

Any other guys purchasing from the US have any more information about the warranty part ??

Also, the CC mentioned that One would hit Indian shores by month end or max by early May... :fingers-crossed:
[One (M7) General] Slim Shady:
jus' hoping that indian batch of htc one has the high quality nokia mic
[One (M7) General] buBleZ:
First it is not Nokia mike. It is STMs . Also HTC is going to use the current stock of STM mikes till its available. After this they are going to use a better quality mic from a different vendor. This is officially confirmed by HTC. So no need to worry.

any news or tips on the release dates guys?
[One (M7) General] Slim Shady:
S4 is launching in 1 or 2 days but still only the general thing we know last week of april or first week of may as replied by the htc guy in a mail to me
[One (M7) General] aaronlivera:
assuming that you own the htc one's dev edition device...!! (congrats for that...!!).

have you used the ordinary htc one ...??? the non dev edition...???

if you have then watch this video...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfu4dr-biRA

this video says that the ordinary htc one's vol rocker and the IR blaster is kind of embedded but in the dev edition it sticks out so that we can feel those buttons... and some other tiny differences...

and can u possibly make sure of what he says on this video,..?!!?
[One (M7) General] rkial:
I dont think its anything to do with the dev edition.. the normal one the guy from phandroid got mustve been an earlier batch.. they've worked on the flaws and the newer ones are better.
[One (M7) General] aaronlivera:
isn't the phone in the video dev editon??

and am wondering how do we find out the difference between the dev editon and the normal one??

---------- Post added at 06:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 PM ----------

isn't the phone in the video dev editon??

and am wondering how do we find out the difference between the dev editon and the normal one?? other than going in and finding out if the bootloader is unlocked
[One (M7) General] Sultan of Speed:
Found this video on YouTube.....Amazing screen from HTC One. With this video, I can be sure, I do not need any kind of screen protector for my phone. I can share my pocket with my phone & my keys without being overly worried. Amazing...isn't it? Hope it helps you guys!! :D:D::laugh:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKW0STwTQVs&feature=youtube_gdata_player
[One (M7) General] mahesh_9j:
Yes have heard about the same and seen a video on YT about the same (Unboxing for HTC ONE Dev Edition) and the guy clearly said in his 32 Gb AT&T version IR blaster and the Volume Rocker are emmbeded however in the Dev edition both are accessible and it feels good. :)
[One (M7) General] aaronlivera:
from where did you get your fone?? and d price!!
[One (M7) General] numero_uno:
Did you get the camera updates that have been rolling out ???
[One (M7) General] mahesh_9j:
Not yet !! Waiting for it...
[One (M7) General] buBleZ:
Sand and dust are the ones that scratch the phones badly. Not keys or coins. Pointless video
[One (M7) General] Neo_92:
Patience man..Clove will never get u down.I ordered it on april 7th and waiting too.14-21 days is the approximate shipping duration, keep that in mind and wait patiently for a week or two from today..:good:
[One (M7) General] rkial:
Those videos for Gorilla glass devices have been around for a couple of years. That performance is expected now.. anything less would be a huge disappointment

You'll still need a screen protector though.. unless you are very very careful.
[One (M7) General] sam9s:
HTC Rolling out their first update that improves Ones camera quality by a fair margins. check out this article. Other noticeable improvements as well.

[One (M7) General] razer1224:
I think we can't get our phones on may too :(
[One (M7) General] nickporwal:
This is outrageous. I think HTC doesnt even want to launch in India or HTC India people are idiots and morons and doesnt know anything.

If this is true, many people will go for S4 as it is readily available.
[One (M7) General] rkial:
3rd or 4th week... hahahahaha

bloody hell.. I might have to consider the S4..

Noooooo
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
Couple of idiots...am moving to sony....
[One (M7) General] bluheart:
I have ordered HTC ONE DEV EDITION via my friend in US. It will reach in another week or so
[One (M7) General] sgurpartap:
why the hell there is so confusion about the launch....dealers saying something else...some even dont knw....htc help center says something else...the mail reply is something else....they are loosing their customers...xperia z already in market..s4 launched today will be on sale within 2 days...dealers have started the promotion..on the other hand is htc which held the launch 1 month ago and still they dont know when will the device go on sale. morons!!!!
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
its really irritating for as well

waited for 3 months...
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
I'm still thinking for the developer edition, but warranty is bothering me. Any way if I can't get the one for an another and if I can get sense 5 on one x then I will stick with my one x

RELAX PPL HTC ONE WILL LAUNCH IN MAY 1st WEEK.
[One (M7) General] dishayu:
Good that i ordered from the US then. My current phone is on it's last legs and may die any day now.
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
It won't:thumbup:
[One (M7) General] sgurpartap:
nah....not in 1st week am sure now.....may be at the earliest will be may last week
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
This year am going for Sammy
[One (M7) General] Slim Shady:
After reading that mail i was so furious that i called htc talked to them here's the info i got:

Htc one will be available from 3-4 week of may

Only 32gig variant will be available no 64 gig version or dev edition

For service of international devices there a service center at kurla that handles it contact no : 02233149255

So now i have made up my mind and im going to order 64 gig dev edition from us 'cause 32gig isn't enough for me.

[MENTION=2756792]mahesh_9j[/MENTION]

can u tell me how much it costed it for u to get it to india ???

phone cost+delivery charges+customs

and is ppo box method working anyone ???
[One (M7) General] numero_uno:
Dats strange just yesterday I had called the toll free no and they told me they wern't sure about which version was going to be released (32/64GB) and would be releasing it by max 1st week of May

Anyhow, did they for international devices did they mention if we would be incurring service/replacement charges if anything goes wrong during the warranty period ?? Its irritating when they keep giving out different versions/stories each time one calls them.. makes it more frustrating
[One (M7) General] Slim Shady:
dude i called htc using the toll free no. and i hve confirmed it that 32gig version is the only one to be available by 3-4 week of may.As for charges they siad that they can't say anything not even a general estimate
[One (M7) General] akhil8377:
Sense TV/HTC TV remote control

Does any one here was able to configure TV application on UK phones for India TATA Sky. As India does not show up yet (hope it starts showing up soon after release of Phone in India), is there any way out to configure it? Also not sure if we (people who got their phones from UK) will get the update having India as an option (fingers crossed)
[One (M7) General] mahesh_9j:
one of xda user tried the remote to control tata sky and it works, u need to select operetor/DTH provider as SKY.
[One (M7) General] akhil8377:
I also thought so, however I am not seeing the option for SKY as DTH provider. After selecting country as UK, it asks for Post code, whatever Post code is given, still there is no option for SKY. In case any one has configured it, would be good to know what should be selected.
[One (M7) General] sam9s:
check my post a couple of pages back.
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
ill call the toll free today lets see what they answer...

ill comeback within 15 minutes

EDIT:- Exactly What They Said....In the Coming Weeks or Coming days...:(

Due to the Parts problem its still not released in some Asian countries
[One (M7) General] rkial:
They dont know anything. I called them yesteday.. they said 1st week of may. Called them today morn.. they said no idea.

They're just making it up as they go along.
[One (M7) General] Slim Shady:
does anyone has any amazon discount coupons ???
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
Yeah...I think they wont release it unless they have enough stocks!

HTC is a Bad liar...:(

i never expected this from them
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
May be they don't even bother about Indian users as there were very less when compared to Samsung's.
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
yeah..S4 is in preorder in Univercell...porrvika..and Flipkart for 41,500

and i wil be still waiting till the first week of may
[One (M7) General] androidindian:
it will be out soon! i dont trust the guys at their call centre, they dont even know what htc one is.. lol

ask the stores, they speak to the distributors, and they are saying its coming anytime.. so lets wait :D
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
one of store is fooling me around all the time
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
Bro, Why don't you stick with one x for an another month and its better to avoid first batch. Instead of going for an another brand, it's ok to wait for the one right. I'm not suggesting, but you develop on one x, so you can have a good time with that.

For me, I have enough cash right now, so I'm thinking of a new phone and handing my one x to my gf who is currently using my old DHD. But if the wait is too long then nothing changes, I simply stick with one x and wait for the next flagship. Thanks to one x for being a beautiful phone.
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
I have written my board exam..last month and results are coming anytime within may... So I am really worried :(

So this situation is making me crazy
[One (M7) General] mathen:
I too am eagerly waiting for HTC One:cowboy:.But my brain keeps on saying "galaxy s4",considering pathetic stage of HTC in India.They are said to have good after sales service in US,but here we are given third rate service.For example in my home town,HTC is being serviced by a firm which were previously dealing Sony Ericsson,they were blacklisted by Sony due to repeated complaints from customers.Another example is their Facebook page.They never responds to what ever you ask/say! seems like, least bothered:eek:.What I came to know from my usual vendor is that "HTC keeps on changing National distributors" So HTC has serious issues in Service and Sales department , at least in India.I badly wish to buy an HTC One,considering these horrible facts ,I am rethinking :confused:
[One (M7) General] nitinvaid:
+1 me too
[One (M7) General] hunkumar:
Are the first batch of htc one in markets affected with any kind of issues? If so,are they repairable or would just the mobile would be replaced with new one by them:confused:
[One (M7) General] Chillz88:
U just took it out of my mouth.. India is one of the biggest growing smartphone markets in asia.. and all these delays and really a bad htc india is putting me off too.. i think i switched my decision to the s4 already.. i dont want to pay for a company who doesnt promote their product much in this country and is being kept delayed and because of bad service..

After my previous bad htc devices experiences, i really thought of giving this one a go.. but i guess htc just doesnt know the markets and their bad marketting strategy and services and their poor qc issues are making them dead.. I guess htc has to blame themselves for their own fall in shares and market..
[One (M7) General] amankapoor4:
Checked with few stores today in bangalore and everyone said it is coming next month, and in the meantime S4 should be with them in 2-3 days.

Stupid Stupid HTC, i was waiting so bad for this phone, but won't buy this anymore. I won't buy S4 too, cos plastic pathetic handset are just not worth so much. Will stick to my Z.
[One (M7) General] shree.cse:
Don't worry, just relax and be cool. I can see you are a bright student. All the best.
[One (M7) General] sgurpartap:
talked to dealers in my city...acc to them confirmed date will ony be known 5-7 days before it goes on sale...nothing is sure at present could be next month or can be 10 days....i guess will wait til last week of may..if stil not released then will go for sammy.
[One (M7) General] sam9s:
I am using it for the part 20 days now, no issues what so ever that gap issue is also not there. Just enjoying the phone like anything, brilliant piece of hardware, both technically and aesthetically as well.
[One (M7) General] SecretPup:
I'm going to buy from ebay.com. Not ready to wait anymore for Indian release. But the cost of the phone + shipping + customs is going to be close to $1000 (or even more) if bought from ebay. Few ebay sellers have it in stock and I've picked on of them and will order tonight :fingers-crossed:
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
for what 80,000>?
[One (M7) General] buBleZ:
Why don't you order from HTC US or handtec/clove UK? You will be able to get easily without any hassles.
[One (M7) General] SecretPup:
I dont get it. 80,000?? I meant $s not GBP

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 PM ----------

I understand. But neither handtec nor clove nor any of the 3rd party retailers have any clue about when they will be able to ship out. These sellers in ebay have the item in stock and are ready to ship once the payment is made
[One (M7) General] jagdesh:
Some sellers on Ebay are selling it from 48K for cash on delivery in Delhi and then there some going upto 55K on ebay and this will include shipping in India ...

Check ebay there are a lot of people selling it other than those 80K guys ..

Anyways i might be able to get my hands on 1 piece maybe for sale and this one might be a dev edition ... will post once I have it in hand..

For now I bought my HTC One 32GB Silver from ebay itself .. saw the listing called the guy and he turned out to be from Gurgaon, paid him cash 52K and picked up a sealed unlocked version ...

Loving this phone ...
[One (M7) General] razer1224:
dont you think 52 is too much?
[One (M7) General] forumhookersdotcom:
Well I believe its worth to wait for HTC one as s4 is fail .

Don't ever get s4 with waste features you never use.

Htc one will be the winner of this year .

Read this http://pocketnow.com/2013/04/25/samsung-galaxy-s-4-or-htc-one

Don't ever consider Sammy fanboy comments . They are here to troll and promote s4.
[One (M7) General] mahesh_9j:
100% agree with you..Once you take ONE in your hand you'll feel like holding your baby..same happiness and pride...I love my ONE like anything...Best handset ever used in my life since 2003.

I too am waiting for my HTC One,but how-come htc one is having so much build quality issues like light bleed and all? when all reviews praise their build quality,strange:eek:
[One (M7) General] ccpzcp:
i have contacted with htc depo they are asying that already have phone with them but they didnt get confirmation to supply to retailer and has not got any date when to supply so they are waiting for mail from authorities this is ridicoulus as s4 are already available pity on htc they are lossing their big customers
[One (M7) General] slim007:
Those of you who got the phone through the US, did you have the same Billing Address and Shipping Address? How did you get it via hopshopgo etc then? Plz do help!

[One (M7) General] rkial:
HTC are doing a lot of right things with the One.. but the fact is they dont have the resources to produce enough units for a global launch.

They have prioritized the American and European markets over India... which to be honest, is the sensible thing to do. Apple and Google do the same with India as well.

sucks for us.. and if it keeps getting delayed, it might put me off the One.. but not really mad at HTC.
[One (M7) General] SecretPup:
there ya go:

i think they have 1 more in stock
[One (M7) General] androidindian:
How about warranty?
[One (M7) General] SecretPup:
I dont think that matters anyway. Even if you get it from the US or from the UK, you will have to pay for service here in India. The same is the case with this one too. The only advantage being that you skip the pre order wait and you get to skip the customs queue.
[One (M7) General] sam9s:
And I 100% agree with you. That baby thing is so true. That day my one just lightly slipped out of my hand over my bed itself and I was like almost in tears for that. ......lol. It IS the best best handset today and ofcourse best I have ever own.

[One (M7) General] buBleZ:
You can put your money in that site and forget it. They won't deliver the product nor refund. His purchase of 48.5k is the most sensible for fastest shipment.
[One (M7) General] NRGROCKZ:

Looks like Handtec import - minus the warranty? Any details on that?
