Last question. Are they even locking tethering on the unlock version?
[One (M7) General] sirmims:
Will the unlocked version work with Verizon?
[One (M7) General] stevedebi:
I believe the unlocked version is basically the ATT specs.
[One (M7) General] expertzero1:
you already created a thread a few days ago, the answer is no

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2239651
[One (M7) General] sirmims:
So no? Because that would make it a GSM phone correct?
[One (M7) General] expertzero1:
Depends on the carrier. If they catch you then you will be forced to pay the tethering plan
[One (M7) General] adamiscool:
Haahaha no no I'm never going to pay full retail for a smartphone. I would rather buy a tablet or computer parts for that kind of money. Ordered from Sprint beginning of April.
[One (M7) General] oryan_dunn:
Oh, you're paying more than full retail, you just don't know it.
[One (M7) General] nullkill:
Trust me you are paying full retail it's just spread out over a contract. More than retail really. I pay $70 month for 2 unlimited lines or $35 each. I save the retail cost of a phone every year per line or dang close.
[One (M7) General] stevedebi:
Sorry, I should have said "No". Verizon has to get HTC to make a version to support their network.
[One (M7) General] adamiscool:
If it's spread out over the course of two years, whatever. I'll be able to get 20% discount on monthly rate because of corporate discount. Tell me though, how would I be paying more than full retail? Monthly plans with cell phone providers are going to be the same amount regardless of how one obtains a phone. So, you buy a dev phone for $600 dollars and then you'll still end up paying near $100/month for your data+voice plan. I ordered through Sprint, got the phone at $100 for signing up as a new customer, will (hopefully) get the $100 Visa gift card for trade-in promotion. Seems to me, I essentially got this phone for free.

[One (M7) General] stevedebi:
The cost of the phone is included in the costs of the service. Otherwise they could not afford to subsidize the phone. It appears cheaper to you, but they get their money either way.

Really, the new T-Mobile model works better. You pay for the phone over a two year period, and then the rate for service goes down. Or just pay up front and get the service cheaper on monthly basis.
[One (M7) General] adamiscool:
Like I said, that's fine. T-Mobile is definitely doing it the right way in that regard. So, let me rephrase myself. I essentially got the phone for $200 off, whatever the total cost would be otherwise. I simply can't justify paying full retail up front for a phone. I forgot to say I need to reserve those large purchases for important things like car parts to keep her running!
[One (M7) General] nullkill:
As you say you pay around $100 for one line. I pay $35. So $65 a month to me. 10 months later bam I've just paid for a phone in savings.

So I get where you are coming from but $35 a month for me with unlimited everything. Can't ask for more and don't mind paying up front for those savings. And really I only keep a phone 3 months max and then sell it for $100-$200 loss depending on the model.
[One (M7) General] oryan_dunn:
Right, that's what sucks about Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint. The service is the same price whether or not you get a phone subsidized. That's why T-Mo's plans (as well as many of the MVNOs) are good. The plan is separate from the phone, so if you bring your own phone, you get a discounted plan.
[One (M7) General] adamiscool:
What provider do you use? I live in TX, so I pretty much need a major carrier because I'll have terrible coverage otherwise. If I planned on living in the same place all my life, I would probably go with Cricket or MetroPCS or whatever.
[One (M7) General] nullkill:
I use AT&T on a MVNO. Buy my service 6 months a time. I don't get LTE but was on Sprint and the service I get is faster than Sprint ever was for me in my area. I was scared as heck when I left Sprint didn't think I would ever get new phones again now I go through them even more than when I was on Sprint.
[One (M7) General] adamiscool:
Right on. Maybe I'll eventually find a way that works for me, especially when I have a "career" and might be able to throw several hundred dollars towards a nice phone, without it taking a huge chunk out of my bank account.

Back on subject, however, my tracking states it's scheduled for early delivery Friday 19th (tomorrow). It also says the previous scheduled delivery was Monday 22nd by end of day. For anyone who happens to be more familiar with shipping companies than myself, I assume there is the chance won't come tomorrow? And I imagine it has to be in my hands definitely no later than Monday.

First time switching to android

This is the first android I own, I synced all my google contacts with the phone. All my contacts and information show great, but with my iphone i did not have to type in area code for the contact information to show up after the phone number dialed...why are none of the contacts showing up as to who i am calling if i dont dial the area code? i had no problems with my iphone?

My Order Disappeared!!!

Just checked the status of my order this morning. My shortcut now takes me to the Main Order Status page of Let's Talk. It use to take me straight to my order status. When I enter my order number, etc. It just blanks out the fields. No error message. No Order Number Not Found. WTF!!!! This is order was done on line with a Let's Talk agent on the phone so that she could approve (no call back needed). Also used the free case coupon.

Anyone else getting this??

Just received email from HTC stating delays on the 32gb unlocked and 64gb dev edtion til "before the end of April". I'm fairly confident that HTC expected to sell at least 1000 of these. Why not ship those, if not to get some momentum going??!!

[One (M7) General] droidiac13:
Did they have any 64's in stock? I am heading to AT&T at 10:00AM CST to get one there, but was told they haven't received any 64's in stock.
[One (M7) General] xplan9:
We have an important update about your order. Due to shipping issues with the 32G unlocked and 64G Developers Editions of the New HTC One®, there will be a slight delay in shipping your HTC One® to you. We expect to have your phone delivered to you, via overnight shipping, before the end of April. We’ll do everything we can to get it shipped to you as soon as possible.

Also, due to overwhelming demand, there will be a delay in shipping your free case. We expect to begin receiving the Double Dip cases in mid-May, and will ship them as soon as they’re available.

We understand the excitement and anticipation that comes with a new phone, and we are confident that the HTC One® will exceed that anticipation.

Thanks for the support,

HTC ShopAmerica
[One (M7) General] bhyde:
I am on hold right now to cancel since I went to an ATT store to buy a branded ONE this morning. There is a message saying these are delayed and expect to ship and get to you by end of April. Good luck waiting...

Oh and the case is not showing up until Mid-May it said so if your phone and case has not shipped its likely that it wont anytime soon.

I just got off the phone with HTC/LetsTalk. Told her about how I could see my order status last night, but today, cant find order with no error showing up. She verified my order was still in the system. She is also reporting the issue with their IT dept.
[One (M7) General] FlawlesStyle:
Pre-order? More like post-order at this point lol

Just curious, I ordered my 64GB Dev Ed. at 11am CST on 04/05/2013, and my order number is close to 15931300. If they are sequential, anyone else before me get the email about the delay today? I'm just wondering if there is a queue, am I at the front or back of the queue.
[One (M7) General] iraqgsm:

[One (M7) General] msingh11:
Another HTC failure

I'm seriously reconsidering the HTC One given all the fiascos in getting the device. For some silly reason, I had assumed that a pre-order of the device meant that I'd be one of the first to get one despite the original delay. But according to the email I received, and others have already posted, we are going to be among the last to get them. Heck, even T-Mobile is getting theirs before our "pre-orders" show up.

This shows a lack of understanding of a) marketing, b) supply chain management, and c) financial planning that will most likely cause HTC to go out of business. I'm not sure the phone, as beautiful as I hear it is, will make up for the fact that the manufacturer won't be around in another year!

At this point, I'm most likely to get an S4 before the One and HTC will have lost yet another customer!
[One (M7) General] supadupa111:
Not sure if this was mentioned yet but ATT retail stores would not sell without contract. A local authorized retailer store was more than happy to sell me a phone.

They also said 32gb are all they had cause regular users don't need 64gb (learning from Iphones).
[One (M7) General] rpmccormick:
Most users (including me) don't even need 4GB unless they are taking music or video with them instead of using "the cloud". I run Windows7Ultimate on a 32GB ssd... phone memory sizes are insane these days.
[One (M7) General] Nyxagamemnon:
Try saying that when you have 2 kids and tons of pics/video's I have over 40GB on my note 2 alone and counting up.

For tech/development and apps don't need much but for media storage yeah I do :)
[One (M7) General] oryan_dunn:
If they're pictures of people/things you care about, they should be backed up. Obviously, 32GB or even 64GB won't satisfy you if you want to have your whole world in your pocket without a data connection.

[One (M7) General] bluestar23:
I guess I know what is going on after talking with 2 different Letstalk CSV rep. They both claimed that Sprint is selling the exactly same HTC One as unlock 32G (same story as iPhone 5, Sprint and Verizon were selling unlocked iPhone 5) Per instruction from HTC or some other parties, Sprint pre-orders are prioritized. There was a delivery on 04/18/2013, and all of them are used to be fulfilled Sprint pre-orders. Also, after I received the email, saying that the stock will be available by end of April, the online order status is gone. My order is just disappeared and I had to call them to obtain relevant information. Who knows whether re-filled stock will be fulfilled Sprint orders first or now... No need to trust them anymore.

Without any further thought, I CANCEL it.

Why on earth would they send the DevEdition out way after AT&T and Sprint already got theirs? And even for the AT&T people they could have got one at a store sooner than the pre-order. LetsTalk is ultimate failure.

Hi, I have questions about shipping.

My friend on work travel in Chicago and I want to know if it is possible to delivery at the hotel?

If my friend will be at outside when the shipment came, can hotel staff receive to shipment instead of my friend.

İf possible, I'm gonna order but I'm not sure overnight shipping receives 2 business days ?

Thank you for your attention.
[One (M7) General] oryan_dunn:
I think I'd rather have it held at the nearest UPS store/facility for you to pick up in person. I guess depends how much you trust the hotel staff.

Any of you guys pick up a 64GB in stores at AT&T? Every store in my area is telling me the 64GB's are for order only and they won't be getting them in stock for awhile. It's a shame because I wanted to pick a Silver model up before the weekend but I'm not sure if a 32GB will suffice for me.
[One (M7) General] nullkill:
I have never had anything bigger than 16 for internal storage and I for one am happy I got the 64gig in four days I have filled 34 gigs. The photos and video take up a huge amount of space.

[One (M7) General] valleng:
this phone should've come out in March for HTC to have any chance. Imagine, phone was out now a lot would buy before the s4 was announced. Those that brought would spread word-of-mouth to boost HTCs sales. Now the GS4 is announced so people are gong to wait. Even if HTC released it now it would still get buys from people that rather get a 2013 flagship and not wait a month or more for the S4. Releasing in April is over kill though. Its like driving off a cliff for HTC. April is GS4 launch territory. They release a week into April in the US and people are going to say "well, too late now I'll rather wait 2 weeks for the proven samsung". This is a fact and its dam terrible.

When the One was announced HTC said it will be out in the USA in March and I was stoked. I wanted HTC to release it and have it succeed. Now, I dont even care anymore if its released in April. A company that cant keep there word on the time a phone launches is terrible to me. Imagine them saying "ok key lime pie in December" and than not one word on it until February. Yea, I dont want to be part of that and false statements without updates forces my bad stigma towards HTC. Yea they said they can't produce as many as they'd like, but guess what 1) I dont care, thats not my problem, you are HTC a professional company, dont say one thing and cant deliver the correct yield. 2) They said the production problems doesnt affect the US. I call BS. Not one word of update from ATT or any other US carrier or HTC themselves.
