really I have always thought htc have the best keyboard, far better than any other stock keyboard imo. If i had a samsung or sony I would have had swiftkey with my one no need, just like i would have had to have power amp if i had a samsung or sony with the one just need stock music player.
[One (M7) General] yvibes:
I tried 3 different p4u physical stores (not online) today and none of them actually had the phone in stock! Told them about some people getting their phones delivered to them today but the guy tried to tell me I'm wrong :/
[One (M7) General] riz157:
what network?
[One (M7) General] yvibes:
Sim free... But they didnt have any...none at all, no orange,ee,tmobile,voda etc etc
[One (M7) General] riz157:
would HTC One on 3 network do no contract?
[One (M7) General] jonstatt:
P4U apparently said to someone who called up that NO stock is available at stores. It is mail order until the second wave (29th of March).

Special delivery nearly always delivers on a Saturday in a residential area. They won't even attempt a business address. The Saturday guarantee, if you pay extra, means you get compensation if they fail to deliver it on the Saturday. Without that, they have a get out of jail card that means Monday is still acceptable. In reality, I would say 95% you get it on the Saturday though as long as its a residential address.
[One (M7) General] Shasarak:
Just for completeness.... My silver, SIM-free One arrived early this morning. Haven't had much chance to play with it yet, but early days. :)

I'd like to say an especial thank you to anyone who actually did shout (or post) "I believe!" earlier in the thread. I am quite certain that without this I would have been waiting another two weeks at least! :highfive:
[One (M7) General] smarty2322:
Anyone had a dispatched email with out a tracking number
[One (M7) General] yvibes:
Hmm I don't know... I'm happy to wait until next week! They have my number and will text me as soon as stock arrives, patiently waiting now
[One (M7) General] arknailed7754:
Yep I got one.no tracking. Just confirmation
[One (M7) General] jonstatt:
Just remember guys, the dispatch notes could come very late! I got a dispatch note at 4am!! and still the phone came before 9am. This is because the email system is so slow...it is hours and hours behind reality.
[One (M7) General] Palla71:
I ordered it about the same time as you did, but still no news of it... :(
[One (M7) General] TimsterRS4:
Yup, my phone arrived at about 10am yesterday (Friday) morning.

I never did get a tracking email or even confirmation of despatch (only an earlier "they were going to despatch")

It wasn't stuck in a spam folder either.

Lucky I was still here for the postman.

What a great bit of kit, so far chuffed to bits... but struggling to get Blinkfeed to "mix" the content !
[One (M7) General] dahmmy:
ordered friday morning

in the evening got the email

"Congratulations, your brand new mobile phone package will be despatched this evening by Royal Mail Special delivery, who will deliver the next working day to the following address"

so either saturday or monday
[One (M7) General] madindehead:
Friday morning, as in the 15th?!
[One (M7) General] dahmmy:
yup

Sim free
[One (M7) General] Christopher583:
Pre-ordered mine a couple of weeks ago and today full payment has been taken from my account. I was expecting this... so somethings being processed.
[One (M7) General] jutley:
Full payment you got charged on what plan? I managed to get it free on full monty with free flip case .
[One (M7) General] numbskull100:
Got it free on 26 full Monty with flip case and beats headphones! Damn good deal. Should be here today :)
[One (M7) General] smarty2322:
Mines just arrived :D ordered yesterday on orange
[One (M7) General] WhiteHartMart:
Excellent - hope for us all on Saturday deliveries then :)
[One (M7) General] coolfreebies:
Just checked my tracking and mine is out for delivery and should receive it soon... :)

Yipppppppppppppppppppy!!!! :)

Coolfreebies
[One (M7) General] gallifreyangirl:
Mine arrived yesterday complete with phone and case but told beats headsets would come within 28 days.
[One (M7) General] onlinejobwork:
Exactly same so it looked like they paid for Saturday delivery

---------- Post added at 07:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:49 AM ----------

---------- Post added at 07:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 AM ----------

I got upgrade deal £26/500/ul text & net for 24 month with pioneer speaker, urbeats & case with free phone, u guys thinking its a best deal? Any guys got better than this?

---------- Post added at 07:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:54 AM ----------

[One (M7) General] WhiteHartMart:

[One (M7) General] smarty2322:

[One (M7) General] coolfreebies:

Will let you know how I get on... :)

coolfreebies
[One (M7) General] WhiteHartMart:
......and it's fantastic - even after using a Nexus 4.

Screen is knock out :) and the speakers just different class - HTC did good so far.
[One (M7) General] mnbrennan:
Hey buddy, was everything in the same box, how did the case and headphones come?
[One (M7) General] smarty2322:
only had phone & case no beats earphones
[One (M7) General] constructorx:
Yes! This is what I was just thinking. The volume granularity is too coarse. Sound quality is beyond awesome for a phone though. People in the room jaws drop!

For those who are getting theirs soon... You will love it.

I installed Nova and Jellybean stock launchers instead of sense (sorry HTC). This would be absolutely perfect if had stock Android with Google updates. But hey... This is just nitpicking. Awesome awesome phone.
[One (M7) General] nevillejb75:
Just arrived. Just about to open. No pioneer speakers yet though. Been told can take up to 28 days to arrive.
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
From P4U....
[One (M7) General] mnbrennan:
Ok, but did it come in the same package or a different one?
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
1 package, with 2 boxes and the case, Beats buds in 1 box, phone in another box and the case on it's own, but all together in 1 postage bag.
[One (M7) General] hmillhouse:
Ordered yesterday morning, arrived just now! Sim free from p4u. Hats off for the service!

However need to test their returns policy.. Few issues. Dead pixels, aluminium bezel at bottom overhangs and is sharp?! And okay, I'm being picky, yellow tint on bottom of screen.

Ah well!
[One (M7) General] arknailed7754:
Damn unlucky. The postie had nothing for me today.he looked like a whippet today though must be on a promise or something

Spoke to soon.was on van
[One (M7) General] l.m.prowse:
Gahh, my mum shipped mine up to me yesterday (Next day special delivery Saturday Guaranteed) I've just called Royal Mail, and it hasn't even left the post office she posted it in -.- now I gotta wait til Monday -.-
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
Mine wasn't with my normal postie, it was the parcel delivery postie.

---------- Post added at 10:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 AM ----------

Make sure she gets a refund on the postage then.
[One (M7) General] mnbrennan:
Any case/headphones?

---------- Post added at 12:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------

Any case/headphones?
[One (M7) General] l.m.prowse:
Oh I will, not amused at all I'm in lectures 9-6 on Monday So I wont be able to get it until Tuesday -.-
[One (M7) General] riz157:
Just checked with P4u phones in stock delivery next working day.
[One (M7) General] west2cool:
Order yesterday from p4u just arrived
[One (M7) General] scotcruz:
even on simfree? I've checked and it doesn't give you the date..

they must have some stock.. and an agreement with HTC for the exclusive right to sell first..

can anyone check when was the phone manufactured? just wanted to check if the first batch is going to be any different?
[One (M7) General] Tetsumi06:
One arrived a couple of hours ago. Nearly dropped it when the boot up sound blasted out! Damn this thing ROCKS!
[One (M7) General] onlinejobwork:
My one arrived today 8:30, seems p4u paid for Saturday delivery received at home while I am at work post you more info after 9 pm hope its come with beats & cover as promised and pioneer speaker later, no complain for now least from p4u
[One (M7) General] RyanDawson:
My One has arrived! The only problem is that I'm at work. Until 6. And wont get to play with it until half 6.

Hey, at least its better than having to wait until Monday originally.

And P4U wouldnt of paid extra for Saturday delivery, you only have to pay for Saturday delivery if you want it guaranteed for Saturday.

Can't Wait!
[One (M7) General] Steven_belfast:
Mine turned up at 7am this morning,

Post man beating f**k out of the door,

Have to say love it so far, Shame the removed mass storage from the options.
[One (M7) General] RCJ89:
Mine arrived in one big brown box, with the phone on one side and case/headphones together in a plastic thing

congrats to all those who have got your phones or in process of receiving your phone enjoy!!! such a fantastic phone!!
[One (M7) General] abhs89:
Yay mine arrived aswell :) well happy. Just wondering if anyone knows how to remove facebook photos from the gallery.
[One (M7) General] riz157:
Yes they say that as a caution but generally they tend to deliver next day unless you're living n some remote place in the country.

Double checked again still delivering for the 15th. Will be notified via email if any delays on pre orders.
[One (M7) General] onlinejobwork:
Just check P4u black one say "Order today for delivery on 02/04" silver stays on 15/03
[One (M7) General] arknailed7754:
Just talked to someone at there head office. The date is a cautionary measure just in case. Apparently HTC has notified them of a potential delay. Its not confirmed. That apply to the black.silvers still coming definetley. If you don't receive an email you'll get your phone if you do. You can ask for silver instead.

Least its not confirmed but annoying none the less
[One (M7) General] daleski75:
Engadget are stating its delayed globally except for o2 in Germany??

http://www.engadget.com/2013/03/12/htc-confirms-one-shipment-delays-shifts-global-rollout-to-april/
[One (M7) General] arknailed7754:
Just saying what I was told lol
[One (M7) General] pnnorth:
Also a tweet from Paul O'Brien:

HTC have just confirmed to me that the HTC One has been delayed for the UK to late March. :( Shipping in Germany already however.
[One (M7) General] nevillejb75:
Just read on a news feed (android community) DELAYED UNTIL 29TH MARCH
[One (M7) General] Scrowlerfly:
Thats not late March...thats the END of March... FML
[One (M7) General] riz157:
Ow well life carriers on.
[One (M7) General] Narom88:
They tend to send them Special Delivery. Royal Mail are the dogs bollocks when it comes to delivering them.
[One (M7) General] riz157:
Ow well guys never mind its only damn phone.

I think xda community has been hysterical last few weeks, winding each other up, giving updates every second, it's been delivered on the 15th one minute the next no its delayed. Lol blooming mental guys

.

a poll for when when you will be receiving your phone, that's precious.lol

I've been visiting xda for few yrs now and I can honestly sAy i have never experienced anything like it. Flipping hysterical.

CHILL OUT DUDES. ENJOY LIFE MAN.

Switch off I am.

When it arrives you will have it.

Put your iPads down, switch off your tablets and just breath. Come on try it with me in and out.
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
Breathing doesn't work for me......It's Stella Artois that works for me.....altogether now...."DOWN IN ONE":highfive:
[One (M7) General] Narom88:
Guess i'll have to watch Messi destroy AC Milan or play BF3.

The latest i heard from P4U was the 15th though.
[One (M7) General] riz157:
Forgot about the match. Messi ain't destroying anyone tonight, Barcelona is out mate inmho.
[One (M7) General] yvibes:
LOOOOOL at your comment...
[One (M7) General] Narom88:
I really dont want to stray off topic..but stick ITV on!

HTC One is a good phone (that'll keep this post relevant)
[One (M7) General] Shasarak:
I have a strong feeling of clutching at straws, here, but I'd like to believe that. :) I shan't entirely abandon hope of my preorder arriving on Friday until P4U changes the estimated delivery date on the silver model to match the date on the black one.
[One (M7) General] :
Yep its delayed with everyone in the UK that includes Phones4U. Confirmed by HTC to Paul B who has close ties with HTC amongst others who they've told.
[One (M7) General] RCJ89:
I think we should just face it the One isn't going to arrive on friday. I have given up hope but isn't friday 29th good friday thugh aka holiday time. So will we even be receiving the phone before april???
[One (M7) General] riz157:
It ain't over till the fat lady sings.
[One (M7) General] h.han:
Ordered yesterday noon through p4u upgrade on Orange, originally from dialaphone but that was new contract, I prefer upgrade.

Was told it would arrive earliest next Tuesday but some people did the same yesterday but got the phone today!

Anyway, I gave my work address so have to see on Monday...

My screen protector actually already arrived today, bought from eBay yesterday noon....
[One (M7) General] NiCk.JaY:
Try going into Settings-Account and sync-Facebook and uncheck sync photos. Maybe this will work, works on Sense 4
[One (M7) General] AndyM:
Ordered mine yesterday on an Orange contract upgrade. No sign yet, but I guess it's going to be next week at the earliest.

I'm kinda hoping it'll be unlocked and unbranded even though it's an Orange upgrade. Can anyone else confirm? Previous phones from P4U have been unlocked so fingers crossed.
[One (M7) General] RCJ89:
All phones from phones 4u contract or pay as you go are unlocked and unbranded unless stated.

Certain situations maybe a colour that is exclusive to a network i.e the purple xperia z at carphone is locked to o2 as its an o2 exclusive colour. some other situations maybe be pay as you go handsets on three maybe locked
[One (M7) General] abhs89:
Not working so annoyed lol.

Acutally it worked but how do I remove the exclamation mark at the top now saying Authorisation Problem.
[One (M7) General] RCJ89:
To remove the facebook, picasa stuff fromt he gallery. I clicked on the settings that says show/hide albums and unclicked the ones i didn't want to show
[One (M7) General] abhs89:
How did you do this I cannot find the option.
[One (M7) General] RCJ89:
Go into gallery, click on my photos,

in the top right hand corner next to the camera icon you have the three dots,

click on that then it shows a show/hide albums bar

click on that then it brings you up a list of things you can or don't want to show and you just unlick the ones you dont want to show then click save.
[One (M7) General] Narom88:
That removes them from my photos but not the main gallery page (well atleast not on mine)
[One (M7) General] abhs89:
Yup same :(

EDIT: found a way. I force stopped facebook for HTC Sense

---------- Post added at 03:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------

Anyone else disappointed by the case? Loving the phone though
[One (M7) General] arknailed7754:
Yeah same. Arrived in brown box.beats case...case is a bit crap though.I'll sell it for a tenner if anyone wants it! Just not my thing!
[One (M7) General] Narom88:
But wouldn't that stop facebook info from appearing in blinkfeed?
[One (M7) General] djbenny1:
is this the flip folio case??

why are you disappointed with it?

pics please!

---------- Post added at 05:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:12 PM ----------

PS i would imagine that the main gallery page is a cache, try clearing it and when it reloads if youre no longer syncing fb photos they should be gone
[One (M7) General] arknailed7754:
I'm not dissapointed with it.I just don't have them lol they annoy me.love to but tapatalk is being annoying.just Google HTC one flip case you'll find it!. Has the red inside
[One (M7) General] abhs89:
Yes it does but I will scacrifice that. I don't really want other people's photos in my gallery.

The case seems a bit flimsy and nowhere near the same standard as the phone. I will try to post pics soon. :)

---------- Post added at 03:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------

Couple of quick snaps. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/o9psqpeqlfj0z03/mna8ZwVtVR

The phone is so loud even the lowest volume is loud.

Screen is fantastic.

I will take a couple of pics without the case after it is fully charged.
[One (M7) General] Narom88:
What do you think of the case? I think i need to keep it face down for a pick to get the case to stay shut.
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
I'm sending mine back....MAJOR flaw.....Candy Crush doesn't work!!!:p

The case for me is ok for now until I get a screen protector and snap case.
[One (M7) General] madindehead:
I would love to know how Phones4U got stock before everyone else then.

I know Vodafone's have been delayed, then again they are locked and branded. However, Clove (SIM free stockist) also had the delayed. So how did P4U get them in already?!
[One (M7) General] ste1164:
Paul O'Brien has a fix for that :P
[One (M7) General] abhs89:
It's probably because they dedicated several different stores for the HTC one, advertising it a lot for them.
[One (M7) General] madindehead:
Hmm possibly yeah.
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
Probably because HTC used P4U as a launchpad when the phone was announced.
[One (M7) General] TimsterRS4:
Yup, their Oxford Street store hosted the London Launch for the One.

So if I were phones4u, I'd have been pretty hacked-off if I didn't get the first shipment !
[One (M7) General] riz157:
P4u Dispatching Sim free and contract including ee delivery next day.
[One (M7) General] dahmmy:
Ordered 15th

Delivered 16th

+1 for p4u :)
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
Anyone ordered between yesterday and today?

I ordered yesterday 5pm and have not gotten any emails from them yet, other than the Receipt Confirmation.

Maybe because its the weekend?
[One (M7) General] west2cool:
ordered yesterday morning and got it this morning
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
Did you get an email before your phone was dispatched other than the Receipt Confirmation? When I talk to them on the chat, they tell me that my order is still being validated.

I am hoping they dispatch tomorrow so it will be with me on Monday
[One (M7) General] abhs89:
The earliest it would get to you would be Tuesday if they dispatched today or tomorrow.
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
I don't mind as long as i get it before the 29th :)
[One (M7) General] jutley:
I ordered about the same time yesterday 1600 and phoned them today said still processing order.
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
Ah so I am not the only one. Hopefully will process tomorrow what do you think? Or Monday more probable?
[One (M7) General] jutley:
Yea not sure if they count weekends as working day so not sure but hoping it comes Monday.
[One (M7) General] strikerdj2011:
i ordered one today around 11am just got order conformation thats it nothing else yet person a spoke to said with it being weekend should be sorted for monday hopefully and then sent out later that day
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
Monday or Tues is fine with me. Did you get any emails after the Confirmation Email? Something like your order is processed?

---------- Post added at 10:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

Only Confirmation receipt right? No processed email?
[One (M7) General] strikerdj2011:
yea
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
we just have to wait then!
[One (M7) General] ekabon:
Just came back home from work and found a note from post office to pick up my HTC ONE...and post office is closed tomorrow!!!!((( what a cruel life!(((
[One (M7) General] strikerdj2011:
yea the waiting game all will be worth it in the end tho
[One (M7) General] alpha beta gaga:
ordered a simfree silver a few mins ago. i'm guessing/hoping it will process monday for delivery tuesday. last time i ordered with p4u was on a thursday evening. it was dispatched on the friday and arrived on saturday by special delivery. didn't get any dispatch email, just the original order confirmation
[One (M7) General] coolfreebies:
I have finally opened my phone and started to use it, all i can say, at the moment it's awesome and can't wait to use it as my main phone...

I am having my number ported so i will be without a phone for a few days, but its well worth the wait... :)

For those who have their phone i hope you are enjoying it :) and those who are still waiting it will be worth the wait... :)

coolfreebies
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
Yeah hoping for Tuesday now, if they dispatch on Monday morning
[One (M7) General] moosa19:
I ordered Friday 4pm

only confirmation email, no other emails

I spoke to a P4U live chat rep who advised the phone will be posted on Monday for delivery on Tuesday
[One (M7) General] jutley:
I phoned my order through not online ain't got any emails.
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
I will call them again tomorrow, I already talked to online chat this morning and told me my order was still being processed
[One (M7) General] dahmmy:
check spam folder too

all i got was

1. reciept comfirmation email

2. email saying it will be dispatched.
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
and when did you order?

I checked my spam folder, nothing there.
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
Only other email i had from P4U about my order was dispatch email, which when i eventually found it was from "web.order"
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
no dispatch email for me yet.

When did you do the online order? what time?
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
19th February, before the announcement event had finished.:angel:
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
Ah ok I ordered last Friday. so I am assuming since its the weekend.

Hopefully will get a dispatch on Monday
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
Yes, i would say you MIGHT get a dispatch email on Monday, but if not i think you will almost certainly receive the phone on Tuesday.

Keep trying them with live chat, they have had loads and loads of us from the forum contacting them all week, it would have been interesting to see some stats about how many of us kept contacting them.:laugh:
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
Monday or Tuesday is not a problem as long as I get it :)
[One (M7) General] nevillejb75:
Yeah,HTC flipcase and urbeats headphones. Personaly I prefer the HTC pair that came with it
[One (M7) General] Tetsumi06:
The beats 'phones seem to go for £80 to £90 on eBay ;)
[One (M7) General] gallifreyangirl:
Has anyone who got the phone been told by phones 4 u they would have to wait seperatlly for the bests headphones to be sent.
[One (M7) General] Narom88:
I didn't get a dispatch email until pretty late into the night, then a follow up email with tracking info until 12 hours after receiving the phone.
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
No, mine came with the handset.

I feel left out, phone arrived Friday morning and i still haven't had my tracking number.:laugh:
[One (M7) General] rizzleboi:
yeah, from dialaphone
[One (M7) General] nevillejb75:
Came with handset. I prefer the HTC 1's that came with it though. I've never got on with in-ear beats
[One (M7) General] jmonfu:
just got off the chat

I can see that your order is in our warehouse, currently waiting to be despatched. As soon as it is despatched, you will receive an email confirmation. Your order will be with you within 3-5 working days from the despatch date
