I'm still skeptical with no official wording besides tweets from their help account.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] oryan_dunn:
Yeah, I was searching for "pre-order", and didn't see the tweets mentioned above. But I'm with you, why the hell haven't they announced anything official? Stock must be real low or something.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] gruuvin:
Not only that, but I signed up for emailed updates a month ago, and still not a peep.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] id10terrordfw:
No, the unboxing I saw on youtube, actually.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] dirtyhamster73:
Cool, thanks...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] deol 4ever:
Hey guys I am thinking of exchanging my one from T-Mobile but I just want to know how the process work? Do they send the replacement along with a postage to send my old one back? And is it too much hassle and what I should say to them because I believe I've gotten a used device nd also it has the gap, my sister got hers and it's perfect. Thanks
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
What do you mean you got an used phone? Whas the seal open?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] dirtyhamster73:
You call them, tell them what's up, they may say you have to send your device in first before they'll send you the new one, argue as you see fit, they will give you the address to where you'll send the defective phone and credit your account $10, you have to ship ups.

They don't send a prepaid label with the new phone or email you one. The address will be Return Center 4500 Cambridge Rd. Suite 100 Door 3, Fort Worth, TX. They'll give you a "Attn xXxX" number to put above the address.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] RangerLG:
I read another thread on here saying that the international version has gotten an update that addresses the camera. I do notice some of my shots are overexposed. Also, when I used my bank app to deposit checks, the camera stretched the picture after it took. I hope T-Mobile pushes the update soon.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] doonroy:
But you don't have problem taking macro shots, right? Mine can't take macro shots (always gets blurry), and I am in the process of getting an replacement. I was hoping the software update might solve my problem, but no person on xda has the same problem as mine.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] scm_crash:
I get mine tomorrow. (YES!)

Just in time too, because my Sensation is eating through power suddenly and even reverting back to a previous backup that didn't have this trouble is of no help. (Possibly killed my battery)

1 more day... Just 1 more day...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] RangerLG:
Here are two shots I took without and with Macro on. Without is blurry, with looks better.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] id10terrordfw:
Finally on order, calling them worked without issue!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] doonroy:
Hey Thanks! My Macro mode is even more blurry. Definitely has an issue hmmmm.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Evolancer13:
Just called 611, he said they have it but its technically pre-ordering the phone, and that it will be available in store by the 18th. You gotta be kidding me...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] CJohnson1073:
You might try going to a local T-Mobile store and seeing if they can order one for you. I had nothing but trouble for a week between trying to order online and ordering and dealing with customer service. My order ended up being canceled because they took so long. I went in Sunday afternoon to my local T-Mobile store and had them order one and it shipped Monday night and I got it Tuesday morning. I also had a friend that went to the store as well and he had his the next day. I'm not sure what the difference is in the ordering process but it seems having someone from the store gets better results.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] EclipzeRemix:
I had to wait 8 days to finally get mine, it did arrive on time and I did get the car dock + it was worth the wait, I'm a happy camper!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] rpmccormick:
I got one from T-Mobile ordered Friday the 12th and it arrived with Dock on Monday the 15th.

I also ordered one from LetsTalk on the 5th and I got the free case today... still no word on them having a phone to ship me at all! Has anyone else ordered a TMO from LetsTalk? Do you have yours or are you still waiting like me?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Brotha Noompsey:
Same here minus the car dock
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] id10terrordfw:
And Ups My Choice notification of tomorrow delivery. Awesome.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] scm_crash:
Got mine today. Took 20 minutes for the SIM to switch. Compared to my HTC Sensation, this phone is a rocket ship, both in terms of apps loading and boot time.

Tomorrow I should be in an LTE area to see how it does. (I'm pretty sure West Los Angeles is lit up.)

There is quite a lot of bloatwear. But thankfully most of it can still be disabled in the apps settings.

Also, for those of you that want to know about branding, my phone is NOT branded on the exterior. Straight from T-mobile. Of course, it does have all the garbage T-mo apps and what-not, but I'm sure those will be removed soon enough. ;)

At this point, I would say this is the first time I don't feel I need to root the phone right away. I hate sense, but this is not bad, really. Not at all laggy. Just for sh!ts and giggles, I loaded CF bench and saw my numbers were quite good. :)

I only played with the camera for a moment, but it seemed to work just right. I took a pic of my dog in low light and it turned out nice.

Battery was fine. Although, I've only had the phone for a hot second.

I haven't blasted the volume yet. Not sure I'm going to. At half volume it was already too loud for my taste. Though that might come in handy when I decide to annoy people in a restaurant.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ginzon:
Ok.. reading the above all makes me more clear on whether to purchase this or not...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] scm_crash:
OK... So I noticed there's no "Stay awake" option to keep the screen on while charging. WTF?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] qnet:
That's my favorite also. I've tried it but have went back to the stock launcher. I haven't been following this thread for a few days, I hope everything goes well with your phone. That's why I was reluctant to send mine back. I can live with the small gap.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
the phone's box is supposed to be covered in plastic, plus the seal tapes right?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] EclipzeRemix:
Yes
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
thank you .... someone made a thread about getting his device without the box covered in plastic , and he noticed the phone was used ( but he return it for a new one )
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] doonroy:
Hi guys, I noticed that when I use video recording or Zoe, the mic would pick up some sort of buzz sound in a very quiet environment, which is annoying. This happened to both of my Ones, is that normal? Thanks!

---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 PM ----------

Yeah if the phone is new it should be sealed in plastic.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] benching91:
Finally got mine! :victory: Was just wondering if anyone got ear buds? I noticed when I activated my phone in store they didn't come with any. The unboxing videos showed that they came with a pair. (Or was this just for other carriers or the international/dev versions.)
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] :
The T-Mobile version does not come with headphones.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] scm_crash:
Well... A couple things I noticed about the phone...

1) The speakers aren't actually as loud as others have been stating. Maybe this is just with some of them. But I can tell you it's really NOT that loud. I turned it up to max while outside and listened to music on Spotify. What I noticed was that my friend's Note II was actually louder and the GSIII is also about just as loud. (Hope this is something that may be fixed with a software update.)

2) The back and home buttons are TINY! I'm getting used to them, but they are very small.

3) The USB connection sometimes shows you what's on the internal storage and sometimes does not. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but it seems that my home Win7 laptop sees the storage different from my work Win7 laptop. I was trying to pull pictures from my phone and I couldn't access the internal storage at work.

4) T-mo's Los Angeles connection is a lot faster than their connection in the suburbs. I was getting 12+Mbps in West LA. In the SFV area I get about 8Mbps. I'm hoping to hit an LTE area soon. Thought my area was covered. Still not bad.

5) Battery life with heavy usage was more than acceptable. I'm quite happy with the phone so far and I do not plan to root it (for once). I was thinking I was going to root and re-ROM the phone after a few days, but this is quite acceptable as is. Sense 5 is a home run.

6) Blink feed isn't getting used as much as I thought I would, but I've been pretty busy, so I'm sure one day (maybe while I'm on the crapper) I'll explore a bit more.

7) Charging does take a little longer than expected, but nothing terrible. BMWP says that I've been charging my phone at around 700-890 mAh. (Even on my 2A charger.) Must be the kernel. Regardless, it's still charging faster than it can use the power.

8) Sometimes the phone gets down to -1 mA with the screen off. In general BMWP shows that it's using between 7 and 70 mA while asleep. I'm sure there's wake locks, but nothing bad. This phone will EASILY go a full day for me. With heavy usage I'm sure it will go 16 hours.

9) The feeling and fit in my hand is great. The glass feels smooth and the phone looks fantastic. I do have the gap on the bottom, but wouldn't have ever noticed it if other hadn't noticed it with their and reported it. I was looking for it. It's such a small gap that I couldn't get a piece of paper in it easily.

10) (Most important to me) The phone is STUPIDLY fast. I seriously don't wait for anything with this phone. It's really no joke. Opening the web browser happens so fast that the sensitive screen sometimes activates the browser before my finger hits the icon. And the browser is up just as I touch the screen. FAST!

K. Too tired for the rest. There's my basic review.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] peachlai:
Mine is running on the latest firmware and it's not that loud either. I heard that hTC tuned down volume with the newer firmware since many people complained the speaker being too loud :p

Be Vegan, Make Peace ＼(^o^)／
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jlczl:
Probably, because I have the Note 2 and the One and the One is definitely louder.

There is a working WiFi calling port on ARHD. I flashed it and everything is working.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] dirtyhamster73:
I've read quite a few posts on here about the volume not being loud for some and I am baffled....mine is extremely loud, too loud, I don't even have my volume up all the way. Unless our idea of loud is all different.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] TrueYears:
Mine is almost as loud as my touchpad

Very pleased with the speakers
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] blackangst:
Sane here. I've got my ringtone and notifications at about 30% and its plenty loud.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Danzoman:
The volume is softer on custom roms because HTC lowered the volume in the new base. If your still on stock you will see if flash something else.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] eduardmc:
would like to share this for people that have their order in backordered. i ordered on the 5/1 with overnight shipping. i knew the phone was on back order but did my order online anyway. my estimated arrival day was the may 8th. i chat about my order making believe that i didn't know it was on backorder. i ask the rep if they had any in stock and he said that they do but they are fullfilling the backorders. i told them that if they could please processes my order because i need my phone for my business. Only took a couple of seconds and my order was processed, my phone arrived the day after.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] :
Because there are plenty of more deserving people who you know, actually waited, in order to get their phone and didn't cry like a 2 year old on the playground that got pushed into the tanbark.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] firespitta:
My sister bought the gs3 from T-Mobile at Wal-Mart on contract.. I want to add a line to get the HTC one, but would I have to go through Wal-Mart, best buy, T-Mobile.com, or any ?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] rookiegenius:
Go where you can get the best plan. Try Walmart first
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] serv380:
Amen to that. My screen isn't flush at the the top or bottom and I can actually feel the glass and press in on it. I called tmo and they wanted me to send my phone back...I pay for shipping...they send me a new one once they have the defective one in hand. Possible 2 week wait. I complained, threatened to leave after 8 years of being loyal never late on payments. Talked to a supervisor and my new one is on the way. They have always sent us new devices when something goes wrong and we send the defective device back. Complaining works.!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] dirtyhamster73:
Yeah I had to argue with them as well about me sending the phone in first. I've never had to send it in before getting the new one, and I can't figure out why they changed it, maybe because we, or I am anyway, on eip and don't own the phone yet? It was such a pain to call in for a replacement that this will be my last time buying online.....if any of the stores near me had the phone I would have bought there, but only one store has it and the two times I called after getting the replacement they were sold out.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
Do any of you guys know how long it takes to deliver the phone if i order it online this coming tuesday before 5pm ?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] blackangst:
Depends on a number of things including whether or not its in stock and the shipping option you choose.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
Ahh ok How long did yours take to be delivered? And what shipping did you used?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] blackangst:
Mine is a long and complicated story lol went something like this:

Sun: ordered online with overnight shipping.

Mon night: showed backordered.

Tues-Wed called CS and online chat, got no help there speeding things along.

Thurs: went to store near me who had one, called cust service to cancel order, bought in store.

Fri: Got a package on my doorstep...phone and car dock! (never got tracking # or confirmation email)

Sat: Decided to return the store bought one because I wanted the car dock.

So dont take my story as a guide lol
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
Daamn..... What a mess, thank you anyways , hopefully by tuesday there will be enought stock

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] towelboy:

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] jlczl:
Try a local store. You can compare the build quality and be sure you get a good one.

Made a terrible mistake. Ended up getting one through sprint because I had a chance at $89 and $50 a month... God awful data speeds, including 4g that keeps on dropping. I'm thinking of begging tmobile to take me back lol. On any note, other than sprint... Amazing phone. I am coming from a nexus 4.

I got my HTC One over a week ago. Upgraded thru their web site and got a 05/01 arrival date. Actually recieved it on 04/26 so I was happy with that however I did have to call T-Mo to activate my new phone and data plan.

Forgot to mention I also received a car/desk dock for free.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Paging Dr B:
Great phone, on a great carrier

I just wanted to chime in. I picked mine up in store last week and have been in love. Its way nicer than my GS3 in every way possible. For all of you people nitpicking, when you go looking for problems you're going to find them. Odds are that most of you wouldn't notice any of these extremely minor imperfections if some bored OCD dude on the internet didn't point them out to you.

"But I paid $600 and I want it perfect". Sorry to burst your bubble dudes, but nothing is ever perfect.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] RangerLG:
Still plugging away on mine. Don't see a need to root it yet. First phone I have been completely satisfied with in a long while. Just hope HTC stays in business and continues to support this phone in the future. They do have a bad reputation for dropping support and their quarterly report was not very strong.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] CJohnson1073:
I say go in person to a T-Mobile store and have them order you one. They will ship straight to your house and they can deal with customer service when something gets messed up. This is coming from my experience both ordering online and over the phone which were both unsuccessful.

---------- Post added at 03:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

Thats why I left Sprint. We have 4G rolling out in Raleigh and it's still terrible. I can live with the data problems but when phone calls don't come through or go to a complete stranger when dialing out, its time to say goodbye!!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
I just placed my order over the phone , with overnight shipping, but the phone is backorder , she told me that it was goin to be shipped tomorrow when they receive more phones... :) i dont mind waiting a little

That's why I just left Sprint and got a One from T-Mobile!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Jayr1987:
alright.. good luck bro.. i live in clearwater florida and i've been calling my local store like everyday.haha.. they're probably sickin tired of me calling everyday.. i also tried to order by phone but the guy said he doesn't know when it comes available, so i told him to give me a call whenever they get some in stock and said he will call me:D so i guess i ain't got no choice but to wait..lol
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
The representative tht placed my order was really helpful , she said that i shouldnt worry because backorder is not the same as out of stock , back ordered means that they waiting for trucks to arrive to the whorehouse ( warehouse ) lol ... And out of stock means that they are waiting for the manufacture to build more phones, thats what she said
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Monk4Life:
I ordered it on Saturday and was sent an email showing it was backordered and that I would get an email once it was shipped but I checked the status today and my phone shipped out today and I should get it tomorrow. I am not sure how that is considered a "backorder".
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] hypersonicx:
For some reason my TMobile store was sold out but low and behold my local Super Walmart had plenty....
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] :
damn I'm going to check mine tomorrow...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] sprocket87:
Can you buy them at Wal-Mart using the new EIP just like on T-Mobile's website? $99 down and $20/mo, without changing your current plan?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] RangerLG:
No. Wal-Mart and Best Buy use the standard 2 year contract plans.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] sprocket87:
OK good to know.

I actually ordered mine over the phone yesterday. None of my local stores have seen or heard any news about it yet, and the web is still showing OOS for upgraders. So I called customer care and asked if they were in stock -- she said yes, no problem, and we set up the order over the phone. After she took my payment info and got all my details and actually went to submit the order, it popped up a backorder notice... D'oh!

So yeah, my order is placed but backordered. I might try to hit up a local store and ask them to order it for me like someone else recommended... might get it faster that way.

I want to get it ASAP because I'm signed up for the HTC $100 rebate if I send them my old MyTouch 4G + UPC code from the One box, and I think it expires soon.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ad78:
i called some stores and i found the ONE! i made a reservation for pickup in a bit (after office hrs)

im located in CT

by the way, he told me the phone price will range from $99 to $280? what's up with that????
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] dirtyhamster73:
Maybe he was talking about the down payment if you go with eip.

The phone is $579.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] Paging Dr B:
The down payment price depends on your credit, or how long you've been with them. Customers over two years are getting $99 no matter their credit. All other customers get $99 or $279 depending on their credit score.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
i placed my order yesterday the phone still in backordered, hopefully they get more phones tomorrow , i cant wait to have it on my haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaands....
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] sprocket87:
So the strangest thing happened last night... I got a call from a T-Mobile customer care rep. She was just calling to see if I had any concerns about anything... she didn't specifically mention my backordered phone or anything, it was almost like she was fishing to see if I was upset about it or perhaps even wanting to cancel the order.

Anyway I explained I had recently ordered the HTC One and was informed it was backordered, and then I told her that I'm hoping to get it ASAP since my current phone is on its last legs and is not reliable. She sounded very concerned, and said she'd put me on a "very brief hold" while she looked into it. I got excited that she might magically move some stock around and get one shipped to me immediately...

Almost 10 minutes later she came back and said "Well, I see your order details, and that the system marked it as backordered. But sometimes the system doesn't update right with this phone for some reason so it's possible it's already moving... You might get updated as soon as tomorrow about it shipping. Keep an eye on your text messages and emails since you could get it at any time!"

Which is basically another way of saying: Your phone is backordered and it will ship when it ships.

So that we less than helpful. It was just bizarre she called me out of the blue that way. Unfortunately it didn't seem to speed my order along any.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
When did you ordered yours? I ordered mine this monday 4:45pm and the phone still backordered , i want this phone so baaad
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] sprocket87:
I ordered mine over the phone Monday morning. The rep said it was in stock, then when she submitted the order she said "OH wait it's backordered" :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] harpr33t:
There have been tons of customers who got the package while it was back ordered with no tracking
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] sprocket87:
Interesting... in that case maybe what she said about the system not updating accurately was true. Who knows. I'm just going to try to be patient and not get all worked up over it. The best things are always worth waiting for :)
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] angel.mariano:
We on the same boat, i ordered over the phone too, but she never said it was backordered, ( i found out by calling back )so i even selected overnight shipping, lets hope they get more phones today or tomorrow

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 AM ----------

Theres sonething wrong with the website, when i put my order number to check the status it says that it cant find the order im looking for , so i called tmobile and they told me to not worry , the order went thru and everything is fine ( they can see it in their system ) and is ready to ship once they get more stock .
