[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Jeepzor:
I picked up 2 BLACK One's at sprint yesterday. Very nice phones! Build quality is top notch and so far they arn't attracing finger prints anymore than my rezound. My only problem is that I left 4g Verizon for 3g sprint, which I figured would be a little slower but the fastest i'm getting is .33mbs with full signal, even verizon 3g with 1-2 bars was getting me above 1.5mbs no matter what. I'm unable to stream slacker or watch youtube videos with full signal, so It looks like the phones will most likely be going back and I'm rejoin Big red and be stuck with S4's.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sgt. slaughter:
Sprint is doing a nationwide network upgrade bud.... Check out s4gru.com for some details on it all... That DL speed will be a thing of the past....
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] greengoldmello:
Thing is, that rollout is about as slow as 3G is currently. :laugh:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sprinttouch666:
Wirefly said they are expecting to receive my Stealth Black HTC One on Monday (5/6) and will ship it to me within 24 hours of receiving it. So good news for anyone that preorderd the black from wirefly about a month ago.......The wait is almost over! :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sgt. slaughter:
For everything they are doing its actually pretty dang fast buildout wise... They are in a sense completely building a net network from scratch here and planning to have it done in around 2yr time roughly is jaw dropping...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] greengoldmello:
Oh I know, thats the only reason i renewed. Now if only Erricson would start upgrading the 3g (not 4g, thats almost done) towers and then all will be great
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Jeepzor:
Yea, unfortunately even with full bars 3g the rest of the day I was only able to pull about 56kbs...the guy at sprint thinks there might be something wrong with the phone, but I decided I'm going to port them back to Verizon. It was a nice little experiment but unfortunately for me, Sprint just isn't going to work out. I love love the phone and really wish Verizon carried it, but it looks like I'll be stuck with the S4.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] YoungCorruptionV2.0:
My 3g is pretty fast. Fastest it's ever been in fact
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Biofall:
The sprint one absorbs fingerprints into its freaking body...

I have had nothing but awful problems with wirefly on two occasions. They have "accidentally" charged my account months later for hundreds of dollars in fees that take a month minimum to refund on more than one occasion and will not remove my credit card information from their system. Taking them to court. Many, many others have had problems with the company as well. I'm sure some people are going to get their phone problem-free, but I assure you a large portion of people have issues with the company.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] americanslon:
Well then here is to hoping I don't have problems like that with them :) I have gotten my current phone from LetsTalk but they don't have the black one so I decided to try wirefly.

I think if I had such problems with any company I would just deal with it through the credit company - cancel the charge and cancel the card.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] 916Coolness:
Update received black one a few days ago not a thumbprint magnet like the European one but maybe I don't have oily hands , black is super nice and sexy that's for sure
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mrshades812:
I would consider black if best buy gets them in the next week!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] hellot1M:
If anyone is near the Washington area the black and white ones are available in all our locations. They are super hard to keep in stalk for a full week before next shipments. It's hard to get rid of our galaxy s4. We still have about half our original stock left. The HTC one is dominating in sells on the west coast. Entire pacific northwest has sold nearly twice as many over the s4 sense release.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] tyler.durden:
Dang, that's crazy but great news! I would've expected the opposite to be true since it seems like the S4 has a lot more marketing on it's side.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] drp1:
I ordered a black One from Sprint online sales. Received it a day later. Unlocked, rooted and installed Viper within the first 30 mins.

Awesome phone, loving it so far, seems well worth burning an upgrade.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] bluv4eva:
I picked up a black HTC One from Best Buy on Saturday (May 11th). I love it.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Darkryft:
Black HTC One phones are available here in Saint Louis, MO as well. I picked one up last week from Sprint after Verizon felt it convenient to make changes to my contract without notifying me. :(

This is the first phone I have owned since the original HTC EVO that attracted attention. Most people mistakenly came up to me and said "You got an iPhone 5?" No, look closer...this is everything the iPhone 5 is not. Compared to the GS IV, the One appears much more smartly designed in terms of grip ergonomics. The GS IV is still great, but it costs $100 more and feels like a brick. Also, you can't go wrong with HTC maintaining continued friendliness for those of us who like it unlocked and rooted.

I have just bought a Xda II. I wonder whether I can use it as a GPS and if yes how it would be possible, thanks.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Accessories] s.morris:
Hi,

I to have just got the XDA II and have also got the TomTom GPS software and bluetooth receiver to go with it

here http://www.globalpositioningsystems.co.uk/793 is one place where you might be able get it from but it seem to be in short supply at the moment

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
AT& T in the US has exclusive rights to the 64gb version for now I think.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inspiredwire:
It will eventually be available on some carriers.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] restinbeast:
I don't think att has it. I got a sim card from them and the guy said he was jealous that my dev edition had 64 gb. He said they only have 32 gb.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr.dj26:
lol HTC is awkward :good:

why would a developer want a 64GB memory?

I think the average user needs it more cuz their more concerned with movies,pic,music,etc

thank you
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
gunnyman is right. Only AT&T has the 64GB version officially. You can still find it on ebay i think.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Dan37tz:
Wanted to share this deal for you guys, I purchased a GS3 international from these guys before and everything was peachy.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Samsung...407?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item51ac15dad7

Get them while they last!
[Galaxy S 4 General] fortesquieu:
Holy Batman!
[Galaxy S 4 General] SlimJ87D:
No warranty no buy!
[Galaxy S 4 General] AndreiLux:
Ehhhh. No sorry that's a bit much. Still amounts to 615€ which is overpriced.

I think I'll have to wait to get this device at reasonable price... (Still tempting)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Dan37tz:
Ahh yes, unfortunately not that good of a deal if you live outside of the US since the shipping is only FREE if you live here.

Still $150 cheaper than Negri Electronics, the only other place that is shipping them now....
[Galaxy S 4 General] Kremata:
This is how they make money by boosting the shipping cost. I live in China I know how much they pay the phone and I know how much it cost to ship a phone. I shipped a guitar for 40$ in Montreal from Shanghai so 99$ for a phone makes no sense.
[Galaxy S 4 General] jrdnlc:
They are local to me. I wonder how much if i picked it up and pay cash.

Will I get LTE on AT&T with this one?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Isnt it best to wait for a Korean version? Dont they support both lte and octa core?

I ordered a Korean phone before and it worked fine in the uk
[Galaxy S 4 General] Sarcron:
If the Korean Version did have octacore and support LTE it would be worth waiting for, as long as it wasn't 3-4 months down the line anyway.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Thats what ive heard... Im going korea in june so maybe i can pick one up
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
ive bit the bullet and ordered the international one, will send my lte one back when it arrives..

[MENTION=4167023]AndreiLux[/MENTION] Hope you get the device soon and start making your legendary kernels :P
[Galaxy S 4 General] x.Orville.x:
I contact him to buy to Puerto Rico but not answer me
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Has anyone actually received yet?

I ordered but havnt had any confirmation and i notice he hasn't had any feedback on the s4 either
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
I was tempted to order one myself but wanted confirmation that it was the I9500 and not the Snapdragon 600 I9505. So I sent him a message early this morning. As yet - no reply !!!

This doesn't inspire confidence in buying from him even though he has a very good seller rating. Also, as you say I can only see 1 positive feedback from someone who has purchased an S4 - yet he has sold over 1000.

I was prepared to order this morning but not now. Especially after reading your message and not getting a reply to my earlier question, I'm not sure what to do.

I hope you get yours and at least you're covered by eBays Buyer Protection should anything go wrong !!! Keep us posted.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
He replied to a message I sent on saturday today. All I can think is that he has so many messages he can't get through them all

I'm hoping it comes tomorrow if he holds up to his one buisness day claim
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
Thanks for the update.

I contacted someone who had left positive feedback for purchasing an S4. I asked whether it was a genuine Octa I9500, you never know with alot of online retailers simply copy/pasting specs, and he confirmed that it was.

He also mentioned that the packaging was in spanish/portugese or something so looks like these might have been destined for South America maybe.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
I got this reply..

Dear Buyer,

Thank you for your order. We will email you the tracking details to your order once it is processed and shipped. We are working hard to get your order processed. Thank you for your understanding in this matter. Once your order is shipped you can follow the progress of your package online

PS- please note that SAT & SUN are not business day or shipping days

Thank you

Looks like there getting overwhelmed with orders, meh
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
Well, that sucks because you are paying $99 shipping for FedEx International Priority so even if they are really busy - they owe it to you to ship your order out in a timely fashion.

I have just placed my order - it's working out about the same as buying the Snapdragon 600 version here in the UK, as long you don't get it hit by Customs that is !!! Hopefully, I get by the weekend at the latest otherwise I won't be a happy bunny :mad:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Yeah i agree, still no notification of shipping!
[Galaxy S 4 General] AndreiLux:
For what it matters, I did in the end buy from this guy. It arrived today. It's a latin america destined 9500 with the Octa as advertised. The thing left the manufacturing line only about a week ago. No problems in terms of tracking or shipping (Intl is FedEx, inside of the FedEx box it was wrapped in a UPS wrapper). Btw: European users: it comes with a US-power adapter, so probably you should order a Note 2 charger to go with it (works flawlessly).

I ordered it Friday and it arrived yesterday (from across the globe!) but it missed the daily courier truck so I got it only today.

In the end it was worth it because my country apparently doesn't give a crap about adding VAT to inbound packets and didn't ask me to pay nothing in addition, so I actually paid no taxes at all on it, i.e. 537€. (Plus shipping)
[Galaxy S 4 General] KillaHurtz:
I ordered mine on Saturday and mine has already shipped. For those saying he hasn't responded, he has probably got a few thousand messages to go thru. I know personally I sent about 6 lol, I wanted to change color to black and know about HSPA+. Should have my unit by Thursday latest.
[Galaxy S 4 General] dave106:
Ordered Saturday morning. Had confirmation email etc and have a FedEx tracking number. Should be receiving Wednesday. I'm in the UK btw

Sent from my GT-P7510
[Galaxy S 4 General] ziggazee:
Could you tell me how much it costs you in total? In pounds and if they charge import taxes
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
Thanks for the pics !!!

I have a Galaxy S3 charger - that should work with the S4 right ?

Well, I ordered yesterday morning and got my shipping confirmation email later that day. So I'm well pleased :)

It cost me £597.34 including shipping. There may some duty to pay when it passes through customs - I'll let you know once I get it.

TBH I should have ordered sooner as he originally had it on for $699, it's now listed at $799 !!!

Still at that price, it's well worth it as it's still comparable to what most retailers are charging for the Snapdragon 600, in some cases its even less :D
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
I still have no shipping confirmation :( i ordered as soon as this thread opened on saturday :(

Glad you picked one up Andrei, hopefully that hardware issue mentioned in your other thread isn't too serious and we can get some great kernels out soon

---------- Post added at 10:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 AM ----------

My bad it went to my mom's email... Lmao
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Now my shipping is stuck on initiated :( anyone seen this before?
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
LOL :laugh:

That's almost as bad as me !! I got my email confirmation but somehow didn't see it in my inbox... talk about dumb !!!

Anyway, mine should be here tomorrow so good times ahead hopefully.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Mine said today but it hasn't even left America / been picked up..
[Galaxy S 4 General] dave106:
Mine only came to £533.09, got in there while it was $699 :) As I understand there will VAT to pay at customs but no other duty on this type of product. FedEx will also charge an additional fee for handling as they should automatically pay the customs fee for you and then will bill you later.

This morning it said eta 12noon today, but at 12noon it suddenly changed to N/A and I contacted FedEx, asking them for an update incase they knew something that they didn't add to the tracking info and here is what they had to say:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
I already sent a few messages this morning before I found my tracking info.. Dont wanna keep messaging but the fact we paid 99 for shipping it's becoming annoying
[Galaxy S 4 General] SmilerOnline:
I don't understand why on my eBay summary it says that the item has been dispatched but FedEx say different:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Mines the same..

I think it's pretty obvious that the seller is going to dispatch a lot of items in one go. He even says on the listing that if you order a second package it'll cost 49.

So i presume his charging us 99 and then paying 49 maybe?
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
OK. So this is what mine says - it hasn't changed since I first checked this morning. So what's going on ?

It should have shipped on the 30/04 but still stuck at Initiated. I've booked time off work to receive it so it sure better get here by Thursday or I will not be happy !!!

BTW checking my eBay account also shows that my S4 has been dispatched ??? I have also emailed him questioning their "ships within 1 business day" promis.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Pics not loaded.. But yeah it ties in with what I say I reckon his charging full price but making shipping cheaper for himself
[Galaxy S 4 General] dave106:
Same here. Changed to N/A as well. Seller obviously hasn't dispatched yet and will do en masse.

Sent from my GT-P7510
[Galaxy S 4 General] SmilerOnline:
Yeah, he will probably send all UK orders out at once.

If I hear anything I'll let you know!.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Omg this seller is annoying me so much, I'd sent a message this morning saying I'll have to cancel if it's not sent soon so his now saying my orders cancelled..
[Galaxy S 4 General] SmilerOnline:
Just to let you know, I got notified that he stated that it was dispatched at midnight (UK time) the other day, so I expect that if there is any news then it will be at about midnight UK time...

[MENTION=2172904]Guitarfreak26[/MENTION]:

Shame, hopefully he will fix this f*ck up that he has made soon... good luck mate!.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Yeah he fixed it alright...

Said it couldn't be changed because a cancellation was already processed! So I've had to re order and now the cost is 100 more.. + now waiting for a refund on the old order

Not a happy bunny.. This octa core better be good lol
[Galaxy S 4 General] SmilerOnline:
Sigh...

yeah the Octa better be worth it... this tracking is a pain, I'd preferred if FedEx wouldn't get my hopes up with bs eta's, and the seller is doing my head in... I wouldn't mind if he would put together some info to let us know when he is going to send out the UK batch...

I can't wait until I get it just so I don't have to deal with him anymore :mad:
[Galaxy S 4 General] Guitarfreak26:
Yeah i really don't like the seller, he could of easily un cancelled my order. He says I will get the refund at the end of play today

I wouldn't mind but I also ordered a note 8 tablet from amazon.de yesterday which is now being delivered tomorrow and I paid considerably less for shipping

Good customer service wouldn't go a miss
[Galaxy S 4 General] dave106:
Well its 1am BST and still showing nothing new at FedEx. Gonna be at least next Tuesday now. Doubt they deliver on Saturday if it was dispatched by the end of Thursday and Mondays a bank holiday for us, so no deliveries then either >:(

Edit: now dispatched, eta 3rd May

[Galaxy S 4 General] Jnn1:
Yup. SHV-E300K/L/S models have Octacore and LTE. Check up wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S4

Tempted to wait for this one too, though then, I still feel LTE more future-proofing than a real daily necessity. But, we'll see.
[Galaxy S 4 General] SmilerOnline:
*UPDATE*

New ETA!:

Travel History Update:

Sorry I only just updated now, I wanted an early night sleep so I didn't check FedEx at midnight...

[Galaxy S 4 General] SmilerOnline:
Just checked google maps, and the Airport is less than a 10 min drive from their HQ, and the devices arrived there about 6 hours ago...

FedEx do take their time when adding Tracking History updates...

*EDIT*

Spoke too soon :o
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
Oh mate, that sucks and I can totally understand why you cancelled ! This seller, even with his power seller rating, is really doing my head in.

Anyway, he replied to my message saying that my order would be shipped out yesterday.

Yes, know what you mean. I had been onto the FedEx site first thing yesterday morning to sign up for shipment notifications. so much for doing that. I hadn't received a single shipment update so after reading your post was wondering whether my order was still stuck at Initiated.

I went onto FedEx site a few minutes ago and sure enough, mine says pretty much the same as yours. It left INDIANAPOLIS at 3:06am.

So yes - he definitely has saved on postage by bundling a whole batch of orders destined to the UK together. Good for him but not what we paid for !!! Needless to say that I will never buy from this seller again and my feedback will say as much !!!
[Galaxy S 4 General] SmilerOnline:

[MENTION=2172904]Guitarfreak26[/MENTION]:

Did you check your mums email account for the email containing tracking info? :p
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
I wouldn't be surprised if waits for another "batch" of orders to be ready before deciding to ship the entire job lot to the UK. He states "ships within 1 business day" and charges a premium of $99 for that service. Yet - deliberately holds back on shipping individual orders to save shipping costs.

Totally unacceptable. :mad:
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
Mine now says the exact same - 04:49am In-Transit INDIANAPOLIS

So we will be getting ours on the same day except I won't be home to take delivery of mine, DAMN !!!

[Galaxy S 4 General] SmilerOnline:

Delivered! :D
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
Damn @SmilerOnline - you could have at least waited for me to post my update showing my package at local depot :p Yes, your first update above is where we now differ :)

Mine says LittleBorough because I live in Rochdale. Based on your timing, yours arrived at your local depot 2 hours before mine, so perhaps I should expect delivery around 10.30am :D

Either way, congrats on your purchase, hope you enjoy playing with your new toy and I imagine that as we all get ours this thread is going to get a little quieter.

You thoughts about a screen protector/case for this baby? Also, please do give us your thoughts/opinions once you have had a quick play. I will be sure to do the same and will be comparing against my S3.

Congrats!, Have fun!! :D :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 General] dave106:

Though I'm a bit concerned that on all the paperwork on the box, the sellers put down 699.99 in pounds not dollars! Which is about an extra £35 on VAT charges!! Will see what happens when the FedEx bill comes through.

Got my VAT bill today - £91.89 plus £10.50 FedEx charge. Overall then, I paid £627.80 for mine. They were on the eBay UK site as a daily deal for £499.99 just the other day. And that was the Octa-Core version. Oh well! Lesson learnt!
[Galaxy S 4 General] mzaslam:
OUCH !!!

Well, I haven't got mine yet but it's definitely going to cost me more than it did you.

I paid £599 for the handset - so if I get a VAT bill for the same then my phone will have ended up costing me just over £700:eek:

Just out of curiosity, how long did it take your VAT bill to come through after receiving your phone ?

Anyway, Lesson well and truly learned !!!!
