Just called to apply the free case code to my order and ask for Saturday delivery. They straight out rejected the free case code, and even though I was willing to pay for the Saturday delivery, they guy I spoke to practically guaranteed me that I would get the phone tomorrow with the overnight shipping I already had. He told me that "thousands of phones" were being shipped today, and that mine was set to ship today as well.

Don't know if I should trust him or call again and try to get a different representative. :confused:
[One (M7) General] nullkill:
You are joking RIGHT?? Really? If you are not joking PLEASE GO AWAY AND NEVER RETURN TO THIS THREAD!!!
[One (M7) General] arzin:
I still see my order status as backorder. I spoke with letstalk twice and they said that they we will be getting the unlocked ones by tonight and that we cannot guarantee you if it will be there by Saturday.dammit I cannot wait till Saturday as well. My patience has given up.
[One (M7) General] daddioj:
LOL. this actually made me laugh
[One (M7) General] Napoleon_PhoneApart:
But at least with Apple, once you got the drop-dead delivery date, that was it.
[One (M7) General] CursiveQ:
sorry, but most of us in this thread don't even have our phones yet so we can't mess aroudn with the settings to help you. I just checked in my htc one x and the names show up when i dial a number without the area code. however, i am running AOKP so that doesnt' help you. maybe you can look in the Q&A section where people already have their phones!
[One (M7) General] ggabriele3:
worth noting maybe is their apparently huge time zone difference. I think they're open to 1am EST, which is like another six hours.
[One (M7) General] stevedebi:

I was just updated on the shipment status of the Developer Edition. I can't speak to the 32 Unlocked version. Once I post it on the site, I will let you guys know what I was just informed of.
[One (M7) General] ferincr:
I'm sorry but by contribution you mean I should be whining and bit***ng about this like the majority on the posts here then I'm sorry I tried to post something irrelevant like most of the posts in this thread, obviously that made the whole batch of phone to be even more delayed now because of me so you can shoot me now.

And after your tight a$$ post I rather be me than you.

Just called to see about saturday delivery. Rep was nice but couldnt do anything. Got transferred to supervisor and she was very rude. Ignored my questions and answered questions I didnt even ask. So if you get transferred to supervisor youre SOL
[One (M7) General] Nlue:
Just spoke with Lets Talk

So I just called their customer service and got an update to my order. The chick on the phone said that they got the Dev phones in today and they're filling orders starting with those that ordered on the 5th. She said since I ordered on the 7th, they probably wouldn't get to mine til tomorrow.
[One (M7) General] stevedebi:
Maybe he is referring to reports that letstalk is getting the Dev editions late today, and thus they are shipping out later?
[One (M7) General] Toaster Strudels:
Dev Editions are being shipped out tomorrow as they currently have none in their warehouse. Paid $29.99 for Saturday Overnight. :)
[One (M7) General] ferincr:
Ok, my bad I get it.

The only reason I'm chilled about this is because I have no option otherwise (as I stated earlier) I'd be as (or even more) mad than you guys I'm a gadget freak too.

I just found funny to be able to experience how it looks from the outside since I'm normally part of the frenzy.

I wish you guy the best as the sooner you get the phones the sonner you can do thorough checks and pave all the roads for the ones that we are coming behind
[One (M7) General] Vukadmos:
That goes along with what I was told when I called about 30 minutes ago. Still, I wouldn't count on it.

Quoting from his site:

Here's the link for the quote
[One (M7) General] Dartman-x:
I live in MN ... we have a full blown blizzard today ... nothin' to do but hit refresh on letsNOTtalk.com and this epic thread. Maybe I should go hang with the family, lol.
[One (M7) General] droidiac13:
Nope. And they didn't get the Dev phones in today. Here's the quote from the person that I have been getting all my information from when asking about Saturday delivery:

"Hi Brandon-

I apologize for the late response I was trying to get some information before I replied to you. Yes we do offer Saturday delivery in some areas, but unfortunately I was informed that we won’t receive the product tomorrow at this time we should receive it on Monday but that is subject to change. I have our purchasing manager giving me updates as he finds out information. I will provide you any information I can as I receive it."

This guy has been upfront and accurate on every bit of information he has told me so I take him to be telling me the truth. I hope he's wrong, but I have my doubts that he is.

[One (M7) General] daddioj:
I had a feeling. that's why I got my 2nd day shipping free and refunded. not gonna kill myself over sat delivery . if theres a chance they might not even get them tomorrow
[One (M7) General] stevedebi:
Well, I was just trying to fill in some dead time on the forum.

I don't know, if TMO actually starts accepting orders for the 24th delivery, I may go ahead and order one and cancel the Dev I have on order. I've been going back and forth in my mind because the TMO version will do HSPA+ at 42 download, and the dev won't.

EDIT: But the dev has that lovely 64gb storage... what to do, what to do...

so just to brighten up the moods... i was just holding the iphone 5 my niece purchased and i must say that the screen on the 5 is really really great.. Retina has always been like HD to me... but i knowwww how good this HTC One is gonna be because the optimus G;s screen from sprint was amazinnnng... that wasn't even 1080p but the LCD technology and the richness made that thing look so high def and glisten like Glass... im just so geeked to get this HTC One in my hands lol. it wont be fair to come to me for battery test because u can consider me a heavy heavy heavy user on day one and it might only last 30 minutes on the battery!! lol
[One (M7) General] peachlai:
I totally understand your struggle! I want to Tmobile plan but I also want the lovely 64gb storage! Plus, I guess dev. edition won't lose warranty because of unlocked bootloader. Sigh.... What to do.....(〒︿〒)

[One (M7) General] serialtoon:
We're working for you, even on Saturday.

When you need your shipment to arrive on Saturday, we’ve got you covered. FedEx Priority Overnight delivers on Saturday, on time, whether you are working overtime at the office, or at home enjoying your weekend. Your FedEx Priority Overnight and FedEx Standard Overnight shipments can be picked up on Saturday so they reach their destination on Monday to start the week off right.

This is directly from FedEx website. So if you have Overnight Delivery on your order, expect it Saturday. On another note, I just came back from AT&T. I played with the One and I was kinda "Meh" about it. Feels like the One X. But I'll still want it. I'm just not yearning for it like I was a few hours ago.
[One (M7) General] Toaster Strudels:
They're using UPS to ship, not FedEx.
[One (M7) General] stepinmyworld:
i was afraid it might feel like a one x.. lol u saying it's not buttery smooth????
[One (M7) General] arzin:
Ups ships in Saturday too if its overnight. I read it on their website
[One (M7) General] PapaRhino:
I was told that they use both when I added my Sat shipping.
[One (M7) General] ggabriele3:
I was told FedEx.
[One (M7) General] ECEXCURSION:
Exact same boat as me...

[One (M7) General] Napoleon_PhoneApart:
It's the same way when a new iPhone comes out. Everyone complains about their battery life for the first week or so, forgetting that they're power-using their new phone a lot more than they normally would. :)
[One (M7) General] EggoEspada:
They use both for delivers. So whether for the HTC ONE they are using FedEX or UPS or both, who knows.
[One (M7) General] stevedebi:
Oh yes, either one will be used on Tmobile networks. I think the dev will work on 1900 here at a reasonable speed, but the Tmobile version will b be much faster until lte is deployed.
[One (M7) General] ggabriele3:
I don't fault these companies so much for their batteries. it's no like new battery tech is available. it's still a trade off between size and battery life.

personally - and I know others are different - id rather a thinner phone, since the vast majority of my days are close enough to an outlet or predictable enough that I can just lay off the phone for a while.

[One (M7) General] agalvin13:
i played with one today too and it is buttery smooth and fast. I have a nexus 4 and ordered the unlocked 32gb model off the HTC website after trying it. I have gone too long with out LTE. I am just scared Google I/O is going to bring all sorts of amazing new features in KLP and this phone isnt going to get it for a long time.
[One (M7) General] serialtoon:
The phone is incredibly smooth. What I meant about it feeling like the one x is in that I feel about it the same way I did when I got the one x a year ago. I've been rocking a nexus 4 since release and I love it except for all the things it lacks such as LTE and a good camera. But the experience in sense feels like it did when I bought the one x. I also have a bad feeling that HTC will release another One in a few months and snub this one out like they did with the one x. Only time will tell.
[One (M7) General] americasteam:
Same here. Which ever is cheapest for them.
[One (M7) General] agalvin13:
Glad to see i am not the only Nexus 4 convert. I felt like a phone buying addict replacing my phone after 5 months and buying tons of accessories. if this phone isnt on 4.2.2 by Google I/O we are going to be in a world of hurt. I am fine waiting a few extra months to get to the latest version. But if we arent caught up yet then it is going to get ugly.
[One (M7) General] americasteam:
Guess I'm in for the count. Since my AT&T order didn't ship tonight, I've cancelled it and added Saturday shipping to my Dev order. Hopefully get it Saturday.

I don't have much confidence in Let's Talk. Especially if I have hardware or build problems out of the box. Customer service hold time is unacceptable. May take 15 days to setup a return. :(
[One (M7) General] robstunner:
I ordered an att Version as it says "ships on the 18th" and now after talking to the premier rep it can take up to two days to ship. FML.
[One (M7) General] SmiLey497:
My ex uses my old One X on T-Mobile's network and it's pretty fast on HSPA.
[One (M7) General] expertzero1:
I'm swapping. Have a nexus 7 for klp :)
[One (M7) General] bradr00lzd00d1:
I ordered on the 16th does that mean ill get it Monday like everyone else or Wednesday the 24th?
[One (M7) General] americasteam:
Exact same experience. If the Dev Editions don't ship this weekend I'll just find a 32gb locally. Honestly, 64gb is overkill for me. It's not even about the wait anymore. Getting tired of the circus.
[One (M7) General] Andrmgic:
Nobody knows.
[One (M7) General] PapaRhino:
I don't give a **** about the lack of communication as long as I get my **** on Saturday or by some stretch of Disney magic tomorrow.
[One (M7) General] robstunner:
I would go that far. I'm getting 64gb of something. Not worth saving $50
[One (M7) General] Napoleon_PhoneApart:
I'm starting to feel the same way, except that I'm getting nervous about not buying locally. I think I'd rather have a local seller in case of warranty work or returns. I'm used to having an Apple store nearby.
[One (M7) General] Apoxx:
I can wait until next week, but of course the sooner I get it the better.
[One (M7) General] NeutronBomb:
Somewhat off topic.. but when we DO get our dev editions.. are we going to want to hang out in the ATT forum or this one? Can we flash roms made for the international version or roms made for ATT? Or do we need roms made especially for the dev version? A bit unclear on that.

Also I called in and *****ed to like 3 different reps asking to speak with a manager.. they finally gave me Saturday delivery/overnight for free after 3 calls. My status is showing shipping today and arriving tomorrow still but no tracking number. Same as most people at this point I'd assume. Ordered in the first 5 minutes or so.
[One (M7) General] SmiLey497:
So far people are flashing international roms on their AT&T model and it works.
[One (M7) General] Fascination_St.:
67 minutes on hold & counting...

Anyone come even close to topping this record?
[One (M7) General] muayyadf1:
there is no point in waiting for the phone this weekend. Hope we get it early next week or I will get really pissed off.
[One (M7) General] pdubcramp:
I'm still backordered, I ordered on the 8th after canceling my original order of the 5th to add the free case and shipping.

Not going to bother with the Saturday shipping operation. Totally understand those of you who paid though.

I think we'll be able to flash roms from both forums since it's all the same chipset, etc. But I don't want anything at&t on my phone. :thumbup:
[One (M7) General] crawlgsx:
Order cancelled. Best of luck to those waiting, I hope you get your phones promptly.

Personally I can't justify giving my money to these companies any more with this level of incompetence and failure. My status STILL showed "estimated instock" of today and "backordered" (since 4/10, ordered 4/5 about 15 minutes after it went on sale) with no status change, no communication. I understand why you would wait, I understand the arguments that it is just a few more days, but this isn't the first time this has happened to me and I am just sick of it.
[One (M7) General] CursiveQ:
the first day i ordered i waited 95 minutes :p
[One (M7) General] crawlgsx:
Weird I just called to cancel and was only on hold about 10 minutes.
[One (M7) General] htowngator:
dang you guys make me seem like a monk with my patience level
[One (M7) General] EggoEspada:
I feel like canceling my order. Not because of the wait, but because the lack of proper communication and if I get a bad HTC ONE, I can tell exchanging it is going to be a huge hassle and more of a wait.
[One (M7) General] Toaster Strudels:
Guys, we will be able to flash all international ROMs and mods on our device, just to clear up any confusion.
[One (M7) General] NJGSII:
You ain't the only one brah. Not that I find this acceptable but I can wait a few more days.
[One (M7) General] funcrusher:
Trust <3

Hope you get your One soon.
[One (M7) General] daddioj:

[One (M7) General] expertzero1:
Its pretty easy. Its just a phone. I still have my money. well make it through the weekend together!
[One (M7) General] Napoleon_PhoneApart:
Exactly my reasons for cancelling - too worried about after-purchase problems.
[One (M7) General] americasteam:
He'll probably get his One delivered before he gets through to customer service. ;)
[One (M7) General] droidiac13:
You picking up an AT&T version tomorrow?
[One (M7) General] Napoleon_PhoneApart:
Gonna try to. I really don't need a 64g model, as I'm pretty spare with my apps and videos. I'd just feel more comfortable buying it locally where I have a physical store to return to if I have problems.

[One (M7) General] pookguy88:
lol at you guys who think it'll be shipped by the end of this week, think mid next week at the earliest
[One (M7) General] bradr00lzd00d1:
I paid for overnight shipping would it be worth it to try to get Saturday shipping?
[One (M7) General] Fascination_St.:
****. I topped off at 91 before hanging up at 10:02 this evening. I figured if they haven't haven't picked up for over 90 minutes that they're on the clock, they'll be goddamned if they pick up when they're off the clock.

Whoa.. someone cracked the code. I was waiting for someone not pick up on something I said, as a joke, then take one look at my avatar.. think it's me.. and call me a ******. Maybe because that happened on another forum whereas I used the cover of a Blood Orange EP as my avatar. Why do I like albums with trannies_crossdressers on the covers so much?

In any case, thanks man.
[One (M7) General] slaveonepunx:
Thanks for pissing in our corn flakes
[One (M7) General] ggabriele3:
I was told that there was no difference, even though I offered to pay for it.
[One (M7) General] bradr00lzd00d1:
Ohh ok I was told mine would be here Wednesday but I'm hoping for earlier I ordered the unlocked dev edition pretty excited
[One (M7) General] NJGSII:
That's a lie. I used to work in shipping and Next Day Air service is only for the next business day. So if it's shipped tomorrow, it'll arrive to you Monday. You have to pay extra for Saturday delivery. They only operate a few of the workers that day.
[One (M7) General] ggabriele3:
of course it's a lie. my guess is that they don't have any idea what's going to happen, and they're in "say anything" mode.
[One (M7) General] muayyadf1:
That means they won't ship until Monday!
[One (M7) General] PapaRhino:
I'll **** my pants if it ships tomorrow, either way I'm going to be smoking down and playing Magic The Gathering drafts or smoking down and playing with the HTC One. Saturday will be a good day.
[One (M7) General] zizo79:
Ditto
[One (M7) General] rafucho:
Ordered on 4/5. 32GB, no change from backordered to fulfillment, anyone know the call center's business hours??

Gesendet vom Internet...
[One (M7) General] rockd0gg:
I can perfectly understand people being tired of waiting and all but if you are that impatient, preodering is not for you, period. It's an exciting and emotional experience with happiness and anger being close.

I ordered on the first day and I want this phone. But cancel my order to throw my money on those att suckers and let them lock my property down? No way!

I rather have a perfect one without gaps and dead pixels than get it tomorrow. If necessary, I am willing to wait another week or two.

When preorders started, they were clearly stating that stock will arrive on 18th (HTC was even saying that release will be delayed to end of April!). We knew that carriers will be preferred to get devices and the first people got their handsets this week.

So why being upset? Basically we are just 3 days behind, if they ship devices tomorrow that's perfectly fine and on schedule.

Even if not, isn't a 1 week wait worth unlocked, unbranded, unbloated goodness? Definitely.

I stop mashing f5 and silently looking forward to Santa aka UPS guy and my private Christmas in April.

PS: I am upgrading from my almost 5 year old HD2 which served me well all the time, so I am in anything but a hurry. The One is a worthy successor of the legendary HD2 so worth the wait. And thanks HTC for giving us the dev edition!
[One (M7) General] zizo79:
Sure, you do have a point. However, you can root and unlock the AT&T phone. I believe that the way Letstalk is handling the situation is a bit disappointing. I am worried it will be hassle to do an exchange or replacement with them in case you get a phone that is defective.
[One (M7) General] droidiac13:
I don't need the 64 either, but I am having to pay $500 to get the 32 from AT&T with an early upgrade and that doesn't seem like a deal. I realize i'm not even a year into my contract, but it still seems expensive to me. Anyone know the off contract price at Best Buy?
[One (M7) General] Napoleon_PhoneApart:
I'd be worried if you had to do an exchange if they'd have developer editions in stock for replacement.
[One (M7) General] robstunner:
Att held up to their promises on shipping. Lets talk is all over the place.
[One (M7) General] gtg465x:
I refuse to pay AT&T $60 more ($600 + tax vs. $575 no tax) for their 32GB version and on top of that, I refuse to own another phone with AT&T bloat that needs its updates to be approved by AT&T. Could I flash an international ROM? Sure, but I don't want to have to do that. The principle of having to do that to enjoy my phone is alone enough to deter me from any AT&T phone. Sure, it sucks that we have to wait a couple extra days, but in the long run, that's nothing. Screw AT&T. They can suck my lentils. I will never buy another infested Android phone from them.
[One (M7) General] droidiac13:
The exchange thing could be a real pain in the ass. With AT&T you call them on the phone. Tell them the issue and you have a new phone in two days. I love that about them.
[One (M7) General] CursiveQ:
you seem to think that just because we're getting ones from HTC that they will have no gaps or dead pixels? there is no evidence to suggest that carrier branded phones have more gaps/dead pixels than the unlocked and dev editions.

people are more angry for the lack of communication and misinformation
[One (M7) General] americasteam:
Yep. The more I think about it the more it pisses me off. If this was a local company I was dealing with, I'd never go back in their store for a purchase.
[One (M7) General] NJGSII:
I'd much rather hear "I don't know" than a lie. The way their handling the issue is just atrocious. Not a great way to run a business. I help run a restaurant and if I did my job like that I would deserve to be fired and the place wouldn't be around for much longer.

I may write to HTC directly regarding the way things have been handled. When people are paying a premium for a product you're selling the customer service has to be on the same level. Especially a product that is so critical to the future of HTC themselves.
[One (M7) General] mrmomoman:
Thanks to those who cancelled out of impatience :) That just pushed up a few notches and for that a few will thank you.

But in all seriousness why did you pre-order just to cancel and go to AT&T? Should have just gotten an AT&T one from the start or wait when AT&T or Best Buy opens up and get yours then.

I have been on a few Kickstarter backings and if you can't wait a few days hate to see what some of you would do on these KickStarter pre-orders ;)

Peeble watch - umm delayed - finally got them. :)

NKMOS Phone Holder - umm DELAYYYYYYED - still waiting over 3 months. Almost forgot about it. Kinda senseless now that I have the HTC ONE Car Dock :)

A few more days and it will be all yours and you will be so busy with your head buried into the phone that you will forget that you waited a whole 15-16 days!!!
[One (M7) General] bradr00lzd00d1:
What does "ready for fulfillment" mean?
[One (M7) General] CursiveQ:
at this point it means the same thing as "Back Ordered"
