[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HushH:
Yeah, this is really disappointing. I was a little hesitant on the M8 based on my frustration with the camera on the M7. But with the recent photos and hype around the announcement, I was all set to go pick one up today. At this point though, I'll probably wait until the announcement of the OnePlus One on 4/23 to see exactly what that phone has to offer before I make a decision.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fernando sor:
yeah its up now on best buy but says coming soon. No T mobile though. Just Sprint, Verizon and AT&T
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galactic2:
The links for Best Buy are up... But it's only AT&T, Sprint and Verizon Wireless... I can't see any unlocked version for a T-Mobile customer.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EtherealRemnant:
Best Buy doesn't sell T-Mobile phones so the gold is forever going to be off limits to T-Mobile customers unless they buy an at&t and unlock it.

I'm getting more and more bent about this the more I think about it. I can't believe that T-Mobile chose to do Samsung's bidding considering how long HTC and T-Mobile have been partners... G1, the MyTouch series... I mean really T-Mo?

What's the OnePlus? I've not heard anything about that.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HushH:
The OnePlus One is a device being built by a bunch of former Oppo engineers. There haven't been any images leaked but the specs sound pretty good (5.5 inch 1080p display, Snapdragon 801 processor, 3100mah battery, 13mp camera, etc). It will be running Cyanogenmod stock and is supposed to come in under $500.

I'm due for an upgrade through Jump as well, but T-Mobile's delay on getting the One will certainly give me more time to consider other options. Probably not good for HTC.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirdroid:
Sure...but why not available as other carriers. The way they are pushing GS5 looks like they did this on purpose and screwing customers.

Uncarrier? Not really
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EtherealRemnant:
Looks good but hopefully it has LTE and T-Mobile bands. I just noticed that Oppo's new Find 7 finally has LTE so Oppo devices are now back on the table for consideration.

My big thing is warranty... If something breaks on a phone I buy from T-Mobile, I call them, they send me a replacement and I send them the broken device, they handle the warranty claim. If I physically break my device, Asurion takes care of it. I don't know I want to leave that comfortable system.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HushH:
I certainly understand that. The T-Mo warranty program is hard to beat - I've had to use it a couple of times myself. It's another reason I wouldn't consider another provider. Just wish T-Mo was getting the M8 today like the other major players here in the US.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smo69:
Update from T-Mobile is that it will release on April 11th. I'd prefer to have this phone subsidized, but this is how T-Mob is doing business these days, at $0 down.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROMVS:
Exactly.

That delay will allow us to see if there are any problems with the M8. I heard the pictures are better than the M7 and that after a week of testing, the M8 apparently doesn't overheat (which caused the tint problem in cameras) due the 801 cpu. Until I can try it at t-mobile, I'm gonna keep reading up on stories on it. Don't know about theOne Plus though, I should look into it.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EtherealRemnant:
I'd much rather have an official T-Mobile version that's optimized for their network though. Its amazing the Verizon is letting it run on US GSM carriers though, shocking!

Its quite likely that the T-Mobile version will be easier to hack than the Verizon version as well.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crooke356:
Your absolutely correct on that. If I'm not mistaking, is the TWRP recovery thread in development not for the T-Mobile version as well?

I will say this, I've already seen a few well known VZW devs here. That's usually a good sign for us VZW users. I was gonna go Dev edition but it's not VZW compatible.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EtherealRemnant:
I don't think its known at this point since nobody has the T-Mobile model but I highly doubt T-Mobile had HTC bar bootloader unlocking like Verizon appears to have done -- AGAIN.

We will have to see tomorrow what happens with the at&t model.

Its interesting that LTE works on T-Mobile but not on at&t with the Verizon model.

I have gotten over my being pissed off that T-Mobile didn't get it on launch day and decided to be happy its going to be available at all. The battery improvement alone sounds nothing short of a miracle. It would be nice to be able to run my phone at its intended clock speed and actually make it through a day.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scotty1223:
same here. ill wait for t mobiles version. i leave my refarmed area with my phone occasionally,and want to still be able to get 1700 band 4g... wich i doubt the vzw variant is able to do.

the available twrp recovery should work on t mo or any gsm variant.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piscesjoey:
Per some deal that they made with the FCC for spectrum, all Verizon phones must be fully unlocked for any GSM network. Trust me those greedy bastards wouldn't be this nice if they fully had it their way lol. Also unless you find a Verizon One on eBay or some other online site, Verizon won't let you just walk in the store & buy a new One outright without them activating it on their network first. American carriers screwing us over with no Vaseline at its finest.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crooke356:
You're right about that. You would have to order it on-line. In that case, you could do it without an active line. The reps at VZW didn't even want me to buy the M8 off contract. They didn't try to talk me into a new agreement but just tried to talk me out of it. When they asked what phone I currently had, I told them the X. After they inquired a bit more, it was revealed it was a Dev Edition. They asked why I didn't get a Dev Ed. for the M8, They asked if I wanted the Gold Finish and if so, I could go to Best Buy. They recommended I wait for the S5 so I could compare the 2 side by side. They told me they only had one color (upon check out, a different rep rang me up and mentioned the other color in the back). They kept me there for almost 2 hours. They would disappear while "checking into something". I understand they don't make money of that type of sale, but it was ridiculous. I HATE VZW Corporate stores. The only reason I went was so I could get it that day and it was cheapest at the store. I paid $599.99 ($641 after taxes). HTC's site has it for $749.99.... aaaand I have to go back. When you look at my device from an angle, you see three bright lights on the right edge. As if the screen is too far to the left and the backlight is shining from behind.

Here is a link of the light. Check yours in store, if you buy in store https://plus.google.com/101459856886344167523/posts/EyC4WdX6pje
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Traceamount:
Are those lights really that noticeable outside of a pitch black room? I only ask because since oh, the original HTC Evo had this happen, along with some other phones. My Evo had it slightly along the bottom row, but unless I was ina dark room, and tilting the phone at an absurd angle, I never noticed it. iirc they were replacing them at first, then at some point said it was normal, stopped taking them on insurance (For the visible lights) - I could be wrong.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crooke356:
In a bright room, no, I don't notice it unless I look for it. In a dim (doesn't have to be dark) room, it does slightly light up the right side of the screen. It's not too bad though. It is just difficult knowing it's there. And i paid $641 for a defective device. If they don't want to replace it, I'll just return it and buy another one.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eighty1:
This has normally been the case with the latest flagships. Only downside is that it drops to edge in some areas for me in Atlanta, GA because of a missing frequency band I'm sure. Only thing stopping me from going with T-Mo as my main carrier, SERVICE in rural areas. Great in the city as we know but still lacking much when I hop on the road and take a trip. It then becomes a reminder of, "you get what you pay for."
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Traceamount:
Right on, I was more just wondering the extent of it, its hard to tell from just a single photo. Also, when I said they stopped replacing them for said reason, it was like 3-4 years ago on the OG Evo. No telling if they will now for this one, but I don't blame you, especially after paying full retail. Let us know what they say about it! Thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crooke356:

Every since picking up a Tmobile version of any phone that supports all tmobile bands I have had no issues. I drive from Gwinnett to Atlanta everyday never had a problem getting LTE everywhere. I also took a trip to Orlando, FL and had service the whole way.

Only time here in ATL I don't get T-Mobile service is when I use a AT&T phone Or Verizon because they lack some of the bands.

They still made me wait while they went through the 30min activation process. They didn't want to swap sims. I asked if that was policy but the guy said it was just easier using the "embedded" sim. I didn't argue. I was just happy they weren't giving me ****.

Yeah T-Mobile is really pushing the GS5, every store I went to today had employees with Samsung GS5 t-shirts. They also had signs that said they would be open today and tomorrow early. Sucks that no one would really know about the HTC One unless they specifically look for it. This is also the reason that t-mobile was the only one that had the phone available until today. The Samsung kickback must've mentioned these restrictions.

Had an LG G2 (well, technically still do) that I dropped in the sink. Spent 5yrs working in the cellular industry (2003 - 2008) and have had cell phones since 1998. This is, amazingly, the first phone I damaged and it was just dump luck.

Worked fine for a while, but a single line (full left / right) of touchpoints (about 1/2 an inch) on the screen went out. So I had to decide to repair it, pick up an S5 or an M8.

Decided not to repair it should I experience any other odd issues in the future. Went in today to my TMO store to debate on the S5/M8, and decided to get the M8 (Anandtech info impressed me, and camera was decent enough that while I wasn't nearly as impressed w/ it as my G2 or the S5 it wasn't a deal breaker).

So far so good. Was in and out in 20mins with my M8.

Just need to go through the usual custom recovery / bootloader as I tend to be the type of user that likes near nothing and then build up from there as opposed to preinstall.

Otherwise I'm happy so far.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevedebi:
I changed my mind, and went in to pick one up at the store. Zero money down, I used their zero interest option. They had a DJ and lots of ads and hype for the S5 - but you had to ask for the M8.

*Follow the other steps as you you do in Odin.

U should backup the IMEI using Galaxy ToolBox.

Galaxy Toolbox isn't compatible with S5830. It works with newer versions of the Galaxy Ace.

It doesn't show any IMEI when I type *#06# into the dialer.

Quite likely that using the wrong .ops file earlier must have formatted the IMEI partition.

Any codes to enter Samsung's engineering mode show blank menu items.

If there is a way I could get access to the IMEI data of another samsung phone of the same model (GT-S5830) and enter in my original IMEI in hex format, it should solve this. However, I don't think that doing this is legal, and with all the media hype about IMEI numbers being used to track so called "terrorist activity", I doubt anyone would risk giving their IMEI data to any random stranger on the internet.(me)

Moreover, the dialer app is extremely slow and crashes often, even on a factory reset/install of a custom rom. I guess some part on the motherboard is failing. It seems like a lost cause, but the geek in me will be really happy to make it work like new again.
