Does the off-contract price normally go up shortly after release??
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sisyphus306:
I have no idea. I'm counting on it staying the same so I can buy from Best Buy and get them to price match. I'd buy from Sprint, but I'll be on vacation next week and I don't want a $550 item sitting on my front porch. Best Buy will at least hold it for me...and I'll get Reward Zone points plus 18 months interest free financing.

activation upgrade fee

Is there any way to get out of paying the $36 upgrade fee from Sprint. I spoke to them on the phone and even escalated to a manager, but no luck. I usually have no problem getting that waived, but they don't seem to be budging on that this time. Would going into a sprint store be easier for that?

fyi I can only buy from Sprint
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] irocevo:
Check to see if your job or school has any deals with sprint. My work does. I pay no activation or upgrade fee plus 20% off monthly bill :)

Sams Club

I ordered my HTC ONE online at sams club and its $148.88 right now for new or upgrades.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] irocevo:
Check to see where you get your phone repaired when you don't buy it from sprint. That's the only downside.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tootseroel:
I have a sero premium plan
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] twoeleven99:
So check this out...some att stores started selling the one today and people who have preordered are walking out with the phone a week before the release date.

release

hi
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bvang89:
So anybody receive any shipping info yet. This will probably be the best thing all week for me.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] _digital:
Just called a local store to check, said they hadn't received their demo unit yet and weren't expecting anything until Friday.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eric00716:
I don't know if it matters but I was one of the first people to order that night because I refreshed until it showed up.I have been checking everyday for a tracking number but I haven't seen anything yet. I'm thinking they will ship on Wednesday two day shipping but that's just a guess.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] twoeleven99:
Hope so.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] cornelious2:
on my bill it says they charged me for overnight so if you paid the 12 dollar shipping fee i would assume its more like ship thursday get friday, but shipping wednesday would be awesome!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] erikivy:
My company has the exact same terms and operates under the name Employee Value Program. In fact, after hearing about EVP a few years ago, I'm the one who decided to set up our company with an account.

On a related note, I received this email earlier today:

This usually only happens when there is stock available to ship. Has anyone else with EVP gotten a similar email?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] twoeleven99:
my shipping says 3-5 business days :rolleyes:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
I have not but it got me thinking ;), Viper and eXplicit already got thiers on monday from the VIP program or whatever. I bet HTC shipped all the phones out the same day, ie. Friday the 12th. They got thiers directly and Sprint got ours. That means they should ship from Sprint today or tommorow. (maybe? fingerscrossed) :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chazybaz13:
One the Sprint myorder page it has been updated with a note:

"Thanks for ordering the HTC One Silver with White accent. Keep an eye out for a shipping email with your tracking information. Pre-orders placed through 4/16 are expected to deliver on or around Friday, 4/19. Any orders placed on 4/17 or later will deliver in 2 to 5 business days from order date. You may continue to track status of your order on www.sprint.com/myorder. "
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] marctronixx:
My GUESS only. No proof just speculation...

people who pre ordered prior to today (4/16) should get phones on thursday. phones will ship tomorrow (wednesday) and track #s will be posted later in the evening, so dont panic if you dont see a track# tomorrow. sprint updates their system on central time so depending on your time zone you may get track numbers sooner or later than others.

i am speculating this based on (sprint) last years pre orders and the 3vo 3D orders...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] felacio:
Quick question: I pre-ordered mine with a new line, getting it for $99. But I want to activate it on my main line and activate my older Evo3D on the new line.

Sprint going to get whiny about me doing this? I wouldn't think so, considering I'm going to be paying $40 more a month to them. Just wondering.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] erikivy:
I don't think they care. I have two lines and three phones (OG EVO, EVO 3D and EVO LTE) and move them around all the time. You can do it online yourself anytime you want and it only takes a couple of minutes.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] lse4:
I have a upgrade coming July 1st..but I really hate waiting lol would I be able to just open another line then freeze my current line then in July just shut my current line down?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Konfuzion:
You normally have to wait a month to move a phone bought under contract to a different line.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] erikivy:
This is a new twist. If I were in your shoes, I'd first make an anonymous call to Sprint and feel them out on the issue. I wouldn't get a new line on the hopes that you could pull off this maneuver without some sort of assurance that it would work.

This hasn't been my experience, but I suppose there are different types of accounts and plans. In my case, it's a business account so that might make a difference. :confused:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kornsaq:
Just call sprint customer service and see if they will let you upgrade early. My upgrade was a month away and they let me do it for a 50 dollar fee. A lot simpler than what your wanting to try doing.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] youkosnake:
Just activate it on the new line then call sprint and tell them you want to switch devices

Sent straight outta Compton
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] LymeWire:
as a sprint employee i can tell you this is simply not true, he will have no problem moving the phone over to a different line
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Konfuzion:
Intresting, I had a hell of a time with my 3D because I used my sons upgrade. I guess things must have changed since then.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gmfeny:
I always do this. I use my wife's upgrade and she uses mine and I never had a problem
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chazybaz13:
I switch lines too, I've done it since HTC diamond with no issues
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] youkosnake:
Same here but I use my upgrade as well as my wife's. Hahaha.

Sent straight outta Compton
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gmfeny:
Lol
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Nbonne:
My experience this time around was utterly ridiculous. The upgrades on my family plan are a mess, nobody's upgrade is actually theirs. I paid the $50 to move the upgrade date to last Sunday.

Normally we just activate the phone on whatever line the upgrade was on and do the shuffle but this time there was a twist. This line has hotspotting with a grandfathered price of $30 for 5gb. If the new phone is activated on that line, the price for hotspotting rises to $50. I called CS and asked if it was possible to have the phone activated on another line but the contract extension to remain. One lady said, no problem, just go to a corporate store and tell them what you want to do. Now, I probably shouldn't have gone to this store. In the past, everyone there has been rude, arrogant, and completely unwilling to help. Nothing was different this time around. I call CS back while in the store, this time I put the phone on speaker so the idiot can hear answer. It's the same, the store can do it. He still says it can't be done. At this point my blood is starting to boil. This guy hasn't moved the entire time, he's been using the register to hold him up and can hardly keep his eyes open. As far as I know, he hasn't heard a word I've said.

After leaving the store, I call CS again. They transfer me to account retention and I explain the situafion. I wish that they had a direct line for long time customers, they are Sprint's saving grace. After to time at all there's a note on my account and when I get the phone in whatever store I bring it to will comply.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chazybaz13:
Another note posted on sprint.com/myorder -

" Since we are processing so many pre-orders so quickly, your tracking number takes a little longer to get to you than normal. Do not worry. If you ordered before 4/16, your tracking email may come as late as Friday, 4/19 when your phone is already on its way to your door. Thanks for your patience."
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] rank78:
Mine says the same. Damn, all I want is a tracking number and it might not get here before my phone? lol
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chazybaz13:
I know, now I'm paranoid about leaving the house in case it arrives hahaha
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bvang89:
So they're saying that phones are still shipping even though none of us have received any shipping info. Hope its like that with letstalk. Been checking all the time.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] contradude:
I feel pretty sad that the at&t guys already have them or will by tomorrow afternoon but ours will come in "around Friday"
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Clamhost:
I agree, almost makes me think convincing my brother in law to get in a Sprint Family Plan contract was a bad idea. We could've gone to AT&T and had our phones already. My Co-Worker says his girlfriend signed the package for his AT&T HTC One, so Thursday I should get to see a HTC One in person! I am excited!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] marctronixx:
always be optimistic....
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eric00716:
Same for me it's about time.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chazybaz13:
What day did you place your order? Mine still hasn't shown as shipped
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eric00716:
As soon as it showed up about 1:00 am est 4/5
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Darkne0:
Got my shipping info, shipped next day. So it should be here tomorrow :laugh:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] briansprint:
Mine just changed to Shipped with a UPS tracking # (not in their system yet) ordered 05April at ~3pm through telesales. :o
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] AssassinsLament:
Yep, me too. I suspect they said "by Friday" just to cover all their bases, but they will try to get it to people by tomorrow (later pm).

Mine said:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] twoeleven99:
Ordered mine on the 8th. Would be nice to see it here tomorrow.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] felacio:
Just got my shipping confirmation. 2nd day air, I ordered the 9th.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jrdulog:
I've gotten the "on its way to your door" update without a tracking number -- :eek: -- but out of curiosity... For those who have tracking information, where are your phones being shipped from?

(Atlanta, GA)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eric00716:
Tracking number not yet active so no way to know. I'll update when i do.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Kornsaq:
Just got my UPS tracking number. Not active yet though. Ordered on 4/6
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Cordy:
For those of us with tracking numbers as mentioned they aren't active yet. But Sprint usually ships from the UPS hub in Kentucky. So since most of us will have overnight even though it shipped last night we will get it today. I remember it being that way for the EVO 4G LTE. And I'm the same as you in Atlanta.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] lse4:
Will they be available in stores tomorrow? Or are they just available online for now?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Cordy:
Online orders usually arrive the day before or day of depending on where you live. But stores are still on the 19th officially. Of course that means they're going to receive their stock by today to be on sale in the morning. So you're more than welcome to try early but you probably won't get any employee to sell you one.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ScrapMaker:
So really, what was the point of the pre-orders if we are getting them same-day, or even later than we could have from the store in person? It's a shame they didn't give the Premier customers any sort of exclusive purchase date.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gmfeny:
Lol beats me. My tracking now says 2nd day air and package is ready for UPS as of 12:28pm est

I'm probably going to pick it up at the store in the morning and just return the one I ordered online.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ScrapMaker:
If I just waited, and kept the money in my account, I could have bought it bright and early tomorrow morning. Bah.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] erikivy:
YES!!!!!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tanquen:
Thanks so much! I did not think I could get the One anytime soon but I was able to call UPS and get a change of address filed. I just acted all upset and what not.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] qualitymove13:
I will receive a free double flip case, free shipping, and a $100 visa gift card by pre-ordering from HTC (letstalk.com).
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Darkne0:
Damn! So much for next day shipping, sprint showed next day air... but UPS now shows it actually shipped 2nd day air :eek:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tanquen:
I've done the same but not as much info on HTC direct orders. Mine went from the 4 steps to order shipment to being backordered and available on 4/18/2013. Today it went back to the 4 steps to order shipment but is only on step 1-Carrier Approval. :( I guess that means they have the phones but have to tie it to the account before it can ship.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
Mine now says:

Scheduled For Early Delivery On:

Friday, 04/19/2013, By End of Day

Originally Scheduled For Delivery On:

Monday, 04/22/2013, By End of Day

Last Location:

Louisville, KY, United States, Thursday, 04/18/2013

Maybe that's because I am in NC and close by. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Darkne0:
Everyone saying it's originally showing Monday, then changing to Friday delivery! Heres hoping.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Ahanix:
Updated and set for "early" delivery tomorrow by the end of the day. Super excited, now I need to figure out where to get a screen protector by tomorrow. Anyone know if ATT or BestBuy has any of the Zagg stuff (I would rather go with Ghost Armor or Best Skins Ever, but BSE doesn't carry them yet and I don't dare wait for shipping)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] qualitymove13:
I only ordered on the 16th and it went from carrier approval to where it is now, "Ready for Fulfillment." What a mess.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] contradude:
Also in for Friday "early" delivery
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gmfeny:
Lol omg mine just changed from being delivered on Monday to

A UPS shipping label has beencreated. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated.

:confused:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chazybaz13:
Mine is also for Friday early delivery. Ordered the 15th
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] erikivy:
:good: Think of me when you use it. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tanquen:
Now my order info is gone from the LetsTalk site. ???
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ScrapMaker:
Screw LetsTalk.com

I made my pre-order with them, only to find out that they were charging over $125 more for the phone out-of-contract than Sprint was. It took me over 3 hours of waiting on hold, on 4 different phone calls to get that stupid pre-order canceled. PITA.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tanquen:
I called and they said it was normal as the phone was in the setup part of the process. Not too sure about that but I won’t get the phone until Monday and I ordered it the first morning you could. They also said it was waiting on some kind of security verification??? What is the point of ordering way in advance if they are not going to ship the phones so you get them on the day of release? Oh well, I just hope it works like it should.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ScrapMaker:
Figures. I already have mine in my hand. I'll say it again.. screw letstalk.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tanquen:
Well, HTC should not use them then.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ScrapSilicon:
it is not just straight talk it also applies to the other resellers of phones like Simplexity et. al. who are being pushed back on their shipments to allow Sprint stores/Best Buy,etc. first crack at customers at least that is my take on this
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Tanquen:
Got it this morning, they sent it with Saturday deliver even after they said they would not when I spoke to them yesterday.

Aww man. That's the mod by serajr i think.. What i mean on the op is to mod the system UI to make an app called Notification Toggle (by j4velin) stay on top on all the notifications. To make it STATIC. Because even with accessibilty on, the app goes down when there is a new notification, then goes back on top.

How to mod the app to built it inside the systemUI??

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Lt.Win:
I bought this phone a few days back and I felt a need to buy a case for this. There weren't any available in shops, so I bought one from eBay.

Link: http://www.ebay.in/itm/LG-Optimus-L...Cover-Case-Pouch-/321093031945#ht_5739wt_1139

There were just 5 available, and I bought the last one, so you won't be able to buy it from here at least. I've still kept the link if anyone wants to see it. I got the case in 2 days. I think you'll be able to find something similar at a nearby shop though. If the case is available again, I'll update this post with the new link.

Now, to the pros and cons.

Pros:

Flip cover - Protects phone screen

Hard plastic back cover - Protects back and corners of the phone

No cutouts - Sometimes they can be annoying.

Cons:

Not by LG - Its by some 3rd party company.

No engraved 'Optimus L9' as shown in the photo.

Overall, I really like the case and I feel its worth buying. It was a little expensive, but its not at all a bad choice, since I feel this phone is kinda delicate.

All photos can be found on my imgur gallery, here.

First one looks pretty good. The second one won't look so good on either colour of the phone. 3rd is alright, but I like the first one better.

I am using the one that came along with the mobile, strangely enough I got a black flip case for a white mobile.. I am not sure if it is the case with everyone or just a mistake on LG's or even HomeShop18's part.

I am not a great fan of Flip cases, but I drop my mobile a lot! so keeping it to safe guard the mobile and specially the screen as it is not GG. Used to have an amzer shellster on my Atrix 2, which I loved. Amzer doesnt have a shellster for L9.. :eek:

I updated my phone from 2.1 to 2.2 via kies mini, then I rooted the phone with SuperOneClick. Finally I flashed this kernel http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1080871 with SGS kernal flasher (something like that) from the play store. Now I'm stuck on the boot screen whenever I boot.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N00B_IN_N33D:
I see. Well, let's try something.

Have you ever used Odin before? If not, you can download it here:

ODIN

You're also going to need to download this kernel:

Overstock Kernel

Now, once those two files are downloaded, you're going to wanna' run the Odin executable I linked above. More than likely, there's going to be a check mark checked for Re-partition, F. Time Reset, and/or Auto Reboot. Although regardless of what's checked, you're going to want to uncheck everything. Once everything is unchecked, your going to want to click PDA and select the OverStock kernel you previously downloaded. Put your phone into download mode, an ID:COM should light up yellow, then hit Start. Once it has finished, giving you the message PASS!, you're going to want to pull your phone from the computer and remove the battery pack. Then, put the battery back in and finally, reboot your phone.

Sorry if my steps are confusing. I'm not by my computer, so I'm going off of memory. Please, don't hesitate to ask any questions. I'll be glad to help or explain anything. :D
