Just ordered mine thanks for the link.

I did that buddy upgrade thing. I used up my brother's upgrade. :)

Edit: just cancelled my order after reading several experiences others had with wirefly over at the EVO 4G LTE section.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jkt97401:
I just ordered mine!

I do, however, have a concern. When I got the email, it states this under the order summary:

Qty Description

1	HTC One Glacial Silver Mobile Number: Transfer Existing: (XXX) - XXX - XXXX

1	Keep My Existing Plan - Add-on Line

1	Keep My Existing Data Feature (View Details for Important Disclaimer)

1	Premium Data

What does it mean by the second line, "1	Keep My Existing Plan - Add-on Line"

That's not adding a line, right?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] xboxfanj:
Did you pick upgrade my account or add more lines? If you're not sure, you may want to call and confirm.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bjl95mustang:
I think its just the way they list the reciept. I did upgrade and selected the current plan i had. The $10 data fee is just letting you know your still paying $10 for data not an extra $10.

I used this when i got my epic 4g and we had no issues. We upgraded 5 lines at the time.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MSGaldenzi:
I called in to order one and they stated that they had the black one for 149.99 on discount. I love the look of the black and don't mind paying a premium. Just letting everyone else know that black is an option as well.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] xboxfanj:
I think it is on the site too, but on a separate page.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mang0:
Here is the link to the black HTC One on Wirefly F&F for $119.99

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MSGaldenzi:
BLAH! Hopefully I can call and have them shave of the $30. Thanks

*edit*

Called and they said that they could not see the 119 price. I mentioned the friends and family thing and the link, but nope... Is there a way to order through the link and change the city? Right now its showing oceanside CA, but I am not able to change that.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mang0:
Yeah, there should be an option to change the zip code right next to where the city/state is displayed on the main page. (It shows Oceanside, CA because that is where I live.) Look at the top, next to where the "Sprint" logo is-- to the right of that logo, you should see "change carrier" and then to the right of that, you should see the location and the option to change it.

I used my parents' zip code in Houston, and now this link should show a Houston zip. :p http://www.wirefly.com/eCommerce/SpecialOffer.aspx?cid=26987_b2047b70d85b4b7ba8219d00995cb11a
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jspsuperman:
Does anybody know if bestbuy will price match this? If they did that would be awesome cause i signed up for that 50 dollars off upgrade promotion. 70 bucks for this would be a steal
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mikemm:
i preordered mine oon the 12th and my status still says awaiting inventory has anyone received there phone yet?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] motoelliot:
Just received mine... Niiiiiice! :D
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mikemm:
when did you order yours?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Starbust:
We ordered our 1st phone on 4/6 and then we added a second phone on the 12th. Neither of ours have shipped so far. So sad. I was hoping to have them before the weekend.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] motoelliot:
I ordered the 6th, I'm in Pa so it didn't have far th go from Maryland...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mikemm:
im in ct so it doesnt have far to go for me either. i just wish they wouldnt send out emails like they did unless they knew for a fact they were shipping everyones and would be here by tomoorrow the latest.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] riggsandroid:
ready to ship!

now to make sure they put it in for overnight shipping.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MrTeddyChills:
I feel your pain... I wanted to have mine by tomorrow afternoon... Guess it's not happening...

In other news. I called Sprint and got my activation fee waved :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] psu2fan:
Woot. My first order on 4/14 is ready to ship! My second on the 15th is still unchanged.

Is this too bad or deal with it because everyone has this?

what are we looking at here?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tiato:
The hairline gap.

If it's me I'd just keep it. :good:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] D3luSi0n4L:
Ya mine has a gap, maybe even a little smaller than that but its so damn small I'm not concerned at all with it. Truly an awesome device - and surprisingly one that I'm not dying to root and flash - I truly enjoy stock.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mikemm:
how is it i ordered my phone on the 12th and people that preordered theres on the 14th are getting shipped?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ScrapSilicon:
did you get the email about all Simplexity Wirefly

"pre-orders" will be shipped to be delivered by April 26th ..?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mikemm:
Yeah I just got an update after calling and yelling at them that its being shipped now I'm waiting for tracking number
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] scottspa74:
Went thru this with WF for the Evo lte. Ended up cancelling the order. Swore I'd never deal with them again.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MrTeddyChills:
I ended up calling up wirefly today and the awesome customer service rep called the activation people on the other line and they shipped mine there and then. I got my tracking number within a few minutes..scheduled for delivery tomorrow by 3pm :)

---------- Post added at 05:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------

I would keep it.:highfive:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mikemm:
well i got my tracking number phone will be here by 3pm tomorrow i preordered it 4/12
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] psu2fan:
Did any orders not get shipped? My second order looks like it *almost* shipped. Site says ready to be shipped but no tracking or email :( Of course the second order is mine.

Wonder if I can get anything more out of WF since they did send out the email stating I'd receive the phones Friday.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] swaze:
Mine says ready to ship but no tracking. I ordered on the 18th.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] riggsandroid:
I have same info.

Will check in morning.

Are you located in DC area by chance?

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] blizzake:
Mine says the same thing i ordered on the 16th..... I'm so pissed because this means we wont get it until monday -_-
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] psu2fan:
No I'm up in western NY
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] riggsandroid:
Same here. I mean really its no big deal. The thing that pisses me off is they emailed saying theyd all be delivered by Friday.

Don't make that statement if you can't back it up. I wouldn't mind if they said we hope to get them all out but some may slip to Monday. But they didn't.

I know I won't be using wirefly for any preorders anymore.

I was thinking maybe they'd courier phones to people in the DC region as I'm like 25 miles from the warehouse.

Meh what's another few days...saving $100...

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ScrapSilicon:
I ordered the morning of the 17th wonder why they skipped some earlier orders

sidenote .. right before I got the shipped email they dinged my Sprint account and my contract now has been extended. Upgrade eligibility date is now 12-01-14
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mikemm:
so my phone will be here before 3 pm my time cant wait
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] swaze:
Ok now I went from waiting to ship to awaiting inventory. WTF!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] psu2fan:
Yeah my account contract has been renewed as well, no shipment though. I really don't mind waiting as I'll effectively be getting the phone for free after HTC rebate, but I hate that they sent out that email saying the phones would be here today. That's the first bad thing they've done through this whole process IMO.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tiato:
My wife texted that FedEx just delivered phones to our door. The next 5 hours will be hard to concentrate at work, maybe I should just bolt early since it's Friday after all. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Edhead123:
Just arrived!

Just took a picture of it with my to-be-retired OG EVO.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] riggsandroid:
mine is now shipped as of 4/26 but fedex doesn't have any record yet.

i assume i'll receive Monday?

I'll go chat with wirefly.

update:

Ayush : I see that the package has been shipped today at 12:17:00 PM. The estimated date of delivery is 04/29/2013.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] shook187:
You should really cover up the sticker of your phone serial number.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jkt97401:
Just got mine! I haven't even activated it yet haha, here I go!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] riggsandroid:
hmmm

Listed on my FedEx page

"Special handling section	Deliver Weekday, Residential Delivery"

Going to see why they can't just deliver on weekend? I know FedEx ships on Saturdays.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tahlsr:
Thanks a lot for the link. Just pulled the trigger for one. Anyone know how to get Sprint to waive the $36 upgrade fee?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Edhead123:
Good call! Forgot about that, I initially took the pic to send to friends. I've blurred it out.

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] staples101:
Has anyone who received their phones activated yet? Wirefly just told me to allow 24hrs to activate..
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ScrapSilicon:
test it out ..took mine about 30 minutes or so upon deactivating evo3d ..listening to tunein radio 1.FM Trance to run the battery down
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] swaze:
Still awaiting to be shipped. Grrrrr
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Edhead123:
No issues for me, it was as instant as I expected. I talked to an online chat person to activate. It took a few minutes for him to do his business, but as soon as he was done, I went outside for a walk and it all seemed to be working fine (~15 minutes or so).

I don't know if there's something different on your account on the sprint end though.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] DNA_007:
Ordered 4/23

Shipped 4/26

Not too shabby.

Can't wait for EVO4GLTE replacement.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] swaze:
Wow.......shipped today will be delivered tomorrow at noon. They gave me special residential delivery. Sweet.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] riggsandroid:
me too. im more excited then my wife is for her phone LOL
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sailio:
All I can say is... If you have issues with your phone, good luck getting it replaced through wirefly
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jaytv:
Guys this phone is a moonshot. Totally worth waiting for, I just keep being more and more impressed by the hour...

Just got home to a fedex package at my door.

Wirefly is closed till tomorrow though...

:/

I cant activate it
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] vayman:
Just unboxed mine too. Did your box have a red stop sign sticker that says

"Please do NOT turn

on your new phone

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MrTeddyChills:
Nope mine is still charging.

I called up sprint and they said there is no need to activate through wirefly..call them or do it online on your sprint account...:)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] D3luSi0n4L:
Yikes double check their terms of service - I believe if you don't activate it through Wirefly they can charge you for the full price of the phone. Double check but I remember something explicit about charges if you don't activate with them.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] swaze:
Wtf that don't make sense.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Matstarr:
Not true I have activate through Sprint in the past and was not charged a penny more
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] D3luSi0n4L:
Ok yeah, sorry didn't mean to freak anyone out. But I would be careful if they do end up changing the account details and Simplexity doesn't see their commission I wouldn't be shocked if they charged you something. Anyways glad you guys got your phones, I'm loving mine! Thanks for double checking that vayman.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] vayman:
No worries man. I could see them pulling something like that.

Loving everything about this phone! Hope everyone that hasn't gotten theirs yet gets it soon. As others have said, it's definitely worth the wait! :)

Now time to unlock and root, so I can get my flash fix. :D
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MrTeddyChills:
I really love this phone. Its perfect.

My tv is too old for the tv app... Time for a new tv I guess.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ScrapSilicon:
I thought so .. wirefly gets a kick from the activation .. thanks vayman
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] vayman:
Sorry man, just saw this.

No problem, I figured they'd have to get something out of the activation and that's why they said to have them activate it. :rolleyes:

Btw, I also posted this in the Newegg thread. Anybody else seeing this from devices they got from Wirefly?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] 64mosh:
No they discontinued the price match offer
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] DiZzyBonne:
I'm a little concerned. I have an available phone upgrade because I never used mine when I signed up with Sprint, and I also signed up as a business account. I just want to upgrade my phone but not extend my contract - I talked to Sprint and they said I could do this. Is this still the case if I purchase the phone through Wirefly? (I would call Sprint on the matter, but they're currently closed :(.)

Also, what's the difference between Wirefly's Device Protection Plan by MDPA and Sprint's Total Equipment Protection? If I buy the phone through Wirefly, but currently have Sprint's TES, can I continue using my TES instead? Which would you recommend between the two?

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MSGaldenzi:
Got it to work by "check if I have an available upgrade" part. That reset the zip, state. Thanks again! I ordered a black and called them and they gave me free 2 day shipping upgrade (No telling when the black will be out though... I just really can't stand silver).
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] xboxfanj:
Yeah I bought my phone at best buy, but sprint is letting me use tep. I think it may be canceled up front, so you may have to call and sign up again.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bjl95mustang:
Mine updated today. Approved awaiting inventory.

I took the chance on getting a black one. Worst case its not shipped a few days before the 30th deadline ill have them send me silver so i can get the $100 trade in promo too.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] kenshi1023:
it looks like no more stealth black pre order available... :(
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] dragzer223:
Thanks man, I was about to pay an arm and a leg at sprint.com lol. So how much did it come out to at final purchase?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aliveon2legs:
What does everybody think about the protection plan that Wirefly is offering? Worth it? Better than Sprint's?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aliveon2legs:
This is not letting my change my billing address from Chula Vista, CA. I hope this deal is not dead, for those outside of that town.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MSGaldenzi:
Read a few posts back... page 2 on default. Go to "Check upgrade availability" and put in your info... that should change it... it did for me.

---------- Post added at 06:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------

I am doing the SAME THING! Mine is approved as well and I am hoping that I don't pass the deadline. Not sure if it will work, but the phone I am sending in is already packaged up and ready to be returned, so hopefully I can just send it to them with my approval status ready. I don't think HTC is going to open the info to send in the return phones until the official release.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jkt97401:
I signed up for this promotion as well, do you HAVE to purchase the phone from HTC to qualify? I haven't received any further emails from them after I signed up (Except for the email about a free case)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aliveon2legs:
The fine print says that you do, but the president of HTC America said on twitter that you can pre-order from anywhere.

---------- Post added at 12:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:01 AM ----------

Thanks. I ended up just purchasing from Newegg. I figured the free overnight shipping made it the better deal.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Biofall:
There are probably a ton of these posts, but wirefly is a terrible company. They charge random charges to your account months after you get your phone. It's happened to me more than once and people I know as well. If you are the kind of person who doesn't have an extra $500 lying around to get tied up due to a "mistake" on wirefly's part, then steer clear.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mang0:
My experiences with Wirefly have actually been quite good. If you follow their contract terms, you shouldn't have any funny business about strange charges to your account. But if you change plans, change phones, or deactivate the line, etc. anytime within 6 months of signing with them, then "fees" can get pretty ridiculously. Just make sure you read and follow their terms of purchase, so you know what you're getting yourself into.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gunfromsako:
Be very careful with wire fly READ all the fine print. A lot of people got screwed over in the 4g LTE section. I steer clear...

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] abiezer:
What specifically has happened? I have bought several phones with them and never had problems.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mang0:
Here's the bulk of the "you might have to pay us extra" policy for Simplicity:

So, if you sign a 2-year contract and "terminate" in any of the above ways within 181 days of activating, then you have to pay them $400.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aliveon2legs:
181 days isn't that long. I can't imagine not being happy with a new phone for 6 months before wanting something else. I wonder what they would do if the card they tried to charge that $400 to expired after the initial order was placed, though. I guess they could send you to collections.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mang0:
A lot of people don't read the fine print when they make purchases, and they might change their plan (increase or decrease the amount of data) or decide they want to switch back to using their own phone for the time being (or give it to a family member) or whatever. As long as you know what you're in store for, then you won't buy from Wirefly (or Newegg) if you know you like to do any of the above. :p

Yeah, if it's an expired card (or one that's not active anymore), they probably send you to collections.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bjl95mustang:
I just got an e-mail update about my order.

They said the Black model wll be delayed and not ship when the silver ships.

I was given the option to keep my spot in line and go with a silver model if I want to so I can get it when they are released.

I knew the black was going to be delayed.

Good customer service.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MSGaldenzi:
I was just thinking the same thing. I am really debating going to the silver... the black could be a month out...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] D3luSi0n4L:
Yup got the same email - had them change it over to silver. I like both colors anyway. I did however ask them to notify me if they get any more information. If the black is only a week or so out from the Silver I will switch back.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MSGaldenzi:
Thats a good idea. Logic really tells me that black is going to be quite some time though. Reasons:

1. Production issues bc companies were not working well with HTC

2. Other colors are usually rolled out a month later (different brands, namely samsung, do this often)

3. The lack of any estimate from sprint/att/tmoble on when the black will arrive (You figure if it was soon, they would know)

I may want to see a silver in person because I really don't like the look of it in pictures.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] srb7215:
You might be right. The only thing I would comment on is first the black ones have been available in Europe but just went on backorder. They are expected back sometime next week. The point though is that they are already out there where when most phones get a second color they aren't being sold at release in other areas of the world. Or at least that has been my experience.

Secondly, companies don't tend to give time frames on something like this. They don't want you coming back at them when they don't meet the deadline. So it could be a week but they likely aren't going to give out that information until they are sure about it.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] MSGaldenzi:
Valid points. Only time will tell though. I rather have black, but am going to happily settle for the more popular color of silver.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] srb7215:
Mostly wanted to mention that for everyone on the fence about whether to take the silver or the black. Hate for you to take what you don't want and then regret it for 2 years.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bjl95mustang:
I'm not going to lose any sleep over not getting a black one.

After the trade in credit I'll be paying $20 for the silver one.

That's because they never charged your account, they only placed a hold on your account and usually a hold disappears after a few days, and when they ship it they'll charge it
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] 64mosh:
The wirefly rep told me today that their system shows the updated shipping date to be on the 19th, the rep received the update while I was on the phone with her.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aliveon2legs:
Bummer.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gobaers:
Hopefully, this is a case of "underpromise, overdeliver." Even if it ships on 4/19, and gets here within a couple business days, I think it's worth it considering it's $120.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mang0:
Wasn't that always the expected ship date? At the beginning, the site showed "Ships April 19th" and then it changed it "Ships when available" somewhere down the line. So if they actually can get it out by April 19th, that would be them fulfilling their promise.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gobaers:
Wirefly is upholding their end of the bargain if they ship on the 19th. Some were hoping that it would go out slightly sooner, as seems to be general practice with mobile phone preorders. To this end, I'm happy if they ship when they said they would. If it goes out slightly sooner, that's just gravy.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Paleryder:
Thanks for this, I ordered mine today and cant wait :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] born2rock4life:
