5 days sellers warranty for any manufacturing defects. other than that, even if he offers a UK warranty, it would be of no use here in India. you'll have to pay for servicing anyway. I confirmed this with HTC's customer cart earlier. If you dont have an Indian warranty, you will have to pay for the services. so, it doesnt matter if I import it from Handtec or clove or HTC US. so, I decided to go for the most feasible option. just over 48k and I had ebay converted it to EMI, so its not a big deal either
[One (M7) General] kmysore:
I too have ordered from the same seller on ebay. When I spoke to him, he said the devices are imported from the U.S. I also asked him about the manufacturing date and he said it is from the latest batch. He couldn't confirm the exact date as the device was in his warehouse. Hope it doesn't have any build quality issues. If there is any issue with the phone, we can return it within 5 days. Fingers crossed!!
[One (M7) General] SecretPup:
If you're in Bangalore, why dont you just go and collect it in person? That must be rather simple and you can get your hands on the device in front of the seller.
[One (M7) General] kmysore:
I thought about it. But that place is 30 kms away from where I live...I might still drop in tomorrow if they are open.

Not gonna work buddy. I dont think they're putting off the Asia Pacific launch for some random reason. IMO, they're making it very sure that the supply atleast equals demand in the US market before they push it here in this part of the world. They very well know the buyer sentiment around here and you bet they're very well aware about S4's launch. TBH, they never really expected such huge demand for One. gotta wait or gotta import or gotta buy it locally with a premium payment. its up to one's personal level of interest in the One.

[One (M7) General] Sedariya11:
i have checked it with Alpha market in mumbai and they said next week it will be available..i dont know but fingers crossed..Its not the problem with the HTC its the supplier's issue that has forced HTC to delay its premium product to not release on time.. One of the major supplier is Samsung and it does not want the fair & healthy competition for its S4..If we not buy HTC one then samsung wins and that is what it wants.. I am surprised that nobody have checked this video..Check this out:good:And wait for the better product (HTC ONE) and buy it..We have already waited so long so no harm to wait little more and get the product which makes you superior & elegant.:angel: Thanks Guys. http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...o-htc-steves-change-in-oems-xda-developer-tv/

HTC is really committing a blunder by delaying the launch in India ... the Plastic S4 is already on sale and the One is nowhere to be seen yet.. come on HTC.. you dont want to lose customers...... the One is by all means a superior phone when compared to the S4 but the S4 is in stores whereas the HTC One is nowhere to be seen. not everybody can order their phone through UK or USA you see ... so up on your toes HTC...
[One (M7) General] rkial:
The problem is my friend got the S4 and it actually made me consider getting one too..

It isnt great to look at.. but the phone does perform well.. and I really dont want to use my iphone 4 any more.. its ancient... 3.5" screen.. bah.

I'll wait till mid May.. then I'll flip a coin.. either order from the UK or get the Samsung.

[One (M7) General] loki4you:
Hi,

Im a noob in XDA.I just got my One silver (Initially i ordered black ,but no stock and wasn't able to go through the tortorous waiting period:crying:) ,2 days back from Clove.co.uk.

The phone is excellent with its design.build quality,and Speakers and of course the 1080P display. I like the form factor too.

The camera is a mixed bag though ,it takes good snaps no doubt , but not gr8 ones.Little disappointed ..may be cos of the hype around ultra pixel.

Zoe is good..Need to master the art of takin snaps with the right settings..Thumbs down for blinkfeed .

The phone is snappy as expected but it tends to get heated when you use it continously for some time say 15 mins .(browsing ,whats app,or calls,camera)

The new 1.29 Firmware has been rolled ou in parts of europe and has improved its camera according to the forums but im still on 1.28 ..

Will i recieve the OTA update in India, when the HTC rolls out the OTA update for UK sim free phones?

I have the ota file downloaded in to my PC but really clueless of how to flash it in to HTC one. Can some one guide me on this.

Im just fiddling with the phone:p ..and I'm happy to answer any of your questions.:good:

Thanks in advance!

Cheers!:cool:
[One (M7) General] vickysud:
even im using UK sim-free in india. Yes you will get the update when HTC rolls out the update for UK region.

Where should I order from?

Guy I am planning to order the HTC One Developer Edition from US, so I would like to know where should I order from?

I saw that i can order from HTC directly but there are couple of things confusing me like there is no option to buy new phone. The website say "Replacement Phone" then if we click ok and go further it asks you to accept an agreement from letstalk.com. What is all that about?

Just for convenience this is the link: h**p://shopamerica.htc.com/cell-phones/productdetail.htm?prId=41599

And one more thing is there a black color version available for developer edition?

Thank You.
[One (M7) General] bluheart:
Link is correct. But dev version is not shipped outside US but 32GB can be bought via that site.

[One (M7) General] SecretPup:
Okay guys..finally got my ONE today. ordered it from ebay last week. I'm speechless now :D

It feels great in hand. No manufacturing defects whatsoever. The display, touch, smoothness everything is just perfect. Only thing is that I've gotta be way more careful in handling it. I'm sooooo excited now :D

Oh and it shows an at&t logo on startup. But Aircel and idea sim are working fine. Made couple of phone calls and used data as well. It's working fine. THE BEST PHONE. EVER
[One (M7) General] uneek-n1:
Yes. My vendor seemed very sure as he got the call from his rep at HTC. Will be the surest on Thursday.
[One (M7) General] androidindian:

[One (M7) General] raghav2511:
I'm not sure why they've written Replacement phone. Letstalk.com is handling all pre-orders for HTC, I wouldn't be worried about that. Currently, Black color isn't available. I've ordered a 32GB Unlocked from the HTC Online store, and one of my friends is getting it to India for me.

FYI, keep a close eye on shipping and availability dates. It MAY take 2 -3 weeks for your phone to reach your friends' house, after you order it. So don't plan things too close. Keep some room (at least a week).

I'm having no issues in using the phone. I tested with idea, aircel and i'm now using it with my airtel sim. Both voice and data are working perfectly fine.

I let it charge for about 12 hours after I got it. now, its at 76% after about 3 hours of use. installed apps, played games, browsed. well, it does seems to be holding up pretty good for my usage. but i wouldnt expect much from one's battery. i'd be glad if i can get through a day without having to look for the charger.

Hi friends! I have a question. I'm here in Canada for a few days and I'll be returning to India on Saturday. My question is, if I buy the HTC One from here (say, Rogers, Bell or Telus) and have it unlocked before bringing it to India, will it be updated every time the HTC updates the Android version or do I need to wait till the original carrier updates it? I'm asking this because we all know that the carriers are infamous of updating the Android versions very very late. Thanks for anyone who replies to my post.

Unlocking will not change your CID. Updates depends upon CID (carrier ID)

So unfortunately you have to rely upon carrier updates.

htc should have an exchange offer for high end models

it's kinda weird that htc takes out 40k + phones every 6odd months.

I mean I got the one x and the battery was rubbish, but the phone itself was quite sick..then they announced the one x+ in October and the white 64 gb was available only in Jan 2013 at the htc Delhi store.. It cost around 40k. Now they've announced the one (m7) and with the new budget declared today phones are gonna be taxed more. So I assume it's gonna cost at least 43,000 inr. shouldn't they have an exchange program for the high end phones? I mean now I have a one lying around cause I don't want to sell it for 22k. (I bought it for 34,000)

and soon I plan to get the htc One. No one is going to part with more than 28k for my one x+.

how about a little respect for loyal customers htc? I understand all brands focus on is getting new buyers. But this is a little unfair to regular customers.
