[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monkeyfeng:
Just ordered it on HTC.com. First thing I did after I order was to call their customer support. I mentioned that it says its free express shipping online so the lady over the phone upgraded my shipping from standard to overnight for free! Remember, it is free express shipping if you ordered it on HTC.com.

Also, the Developer edition phone comes out on 3/28/14 so we will have to wait till next week to get it. :(
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CB620:
A lot of people orders are getting canceled. The play store is resulting in the same too.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt95:
You would make a big mistake buying an S5, just be patient and wait for the devices to be available again and you won't be disappointed :good::highfive:
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SolarTrans:
Yeah probably so :P

I ordered one from http://www.amazon.com/HTC-One-M8-Un...TF8&qid=1395792149&sr=8-5&keywords=htc+one+m8 on Amazon with prime overnight for $4, and although there's no in stock window it will probably be coming out about the same time as the one from HTC. Heck, Amazon ships super fast so it may come sooner XD

Wondering if there is anything that simulates the Rolex sweeping second hand... ?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] wroder84:
LOL nobody knows what you mean!!! That would be a very cool custom option in my opinion. Shouldn't be an issue but honestly not too many people know about the sweeping tick so it would have to be explained and then implemented. I will never get caught buying a fake Rolex now!

Ok just upgraded to kit kat and found something I do not like and see no way to go back to the old way.

When swyping and you make a mistake you used to be able to just erase the letters one by one till you get to the mistake now if you hit backspace it erases the whole word.

Anyone know of a way to fix this?

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] exSD:
Just a general discussion to get this going.

Got my HTC One M8 ordered. Coming from the Evo 4G LTE. I had an upgrade and was waiting for this phone to release.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Rydah:
Was about to until i noticed only Machine Gun Metal color was only available. I think i want gold.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] exSD:
I think it will be a few weeks until the colors get to sprint. Maybe around the April 11th time frame. The gun metal color is awesome IMO. The amber gold looks flat.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Ascertion:
I'm getting it - but I'm wanting the silver color (like the OG One.) and Sprint charging $250 on upgrade is kind of ridiculous. I'll be getting mine likely at BestBuy or Radioshack in the next two weeks or so.

EDIT: Verizon's $199 on upgrade AND they have a bogo deal at the moment. Sprint's slapping us in the face.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] E-Diddy:
The wife, little sister, and I all got our EVO 4G LTE around the same time and we're all due for an upgrade. The wife wants the gold one (or the rumored red one) but Best Buy's gold phone page seems to be down at the moment. There seemed to be some incentives last time around ($50 or $100 extra off through some promotions) but I don't see any of that now.

Really wanting the phone but I'd like to see what the big box retailers are gonna give with it.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] webdude12:
I ordered one from Sprint, because Im on a business plan, Best Buy and Amazon can not offer me a discount, so I was forced to pay the $250. Nice thing is the are doing free shipping and waiving the activation fee at least.

Im coming from an Evo LTE
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] exSD:
You sure they're waiving the activation fee? I did not have my upgrade waived.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ahecht:
Online it was $249.99 for an upgrade, but when I called in to Sprint Telesales (1-888-882-4030) there was an additional $50 mail-in rebate bringing it down to $199.99. They charge a shipping and activation fee bringing it back up to $247.99, but I was able to get a manager to price match the free shipping on the website to bring it back down to $235.99. All in all, between all the attempted upsells for TEP, screen protectors, cases, Samsung Galaxy Tabs, Sprint Buy Back, adding another line, etc, the manager intervention, and having to listen to the full terms and conditions the phone ordering process took 30 minutes (not including time on hold, which was minimal). I also let them talk me into an Otterbox (but I can return that to my local Sprint store if I don't like it).

If the website was waiving the activation fee it would've almost been a wash.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] webdude12:
Yeah, I got my activation fee waived. It might be because I am on a corporation business account.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mcwups1:
Ordered.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] JoeyWhite:
Best Buy has the Amber Gold version here.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Rydah:
$799.00??? WTF :confused::(
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Mine is ordered.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ahecht:
Glad to see you over here! Your contributions over on the EVO 4G LTE forums were invaluable.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] exSD:
ETA on custom ROM?????????????

How i s-off??

:laugh::laugh::laugh:

On a serious note - I wonder when they will ship the phone. Tomorrow would be great. We'd all get our hands on the phone on Thursday.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] exSD:
Still want the amber gold? lol
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] metalfan78:
I think I'll be ordering mine pretty soon. I've been on the gs3 for a while and I think it's time to give HTC another run
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Ascertion:
I was really hoping the light silver was available on Sprint...Looks like just Gunmetal and Gold Amber will be available.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Hidesquadron1:
UPS says thursday! I say it's not fast enough!

I ordered mine around 12:30 when the listing first appeared on Sprint's website. Only gunmetal 32gb was available.

A few minutes prior to this post I got the shipping confirmation. I should have it by end of business on Thursday.

I'm upgrading from my M7, which I got via a third party. If I were staying true to my upgrade cycle, I'd technically be upgrading from the Evo 4G LTE.

I'm counting on this community on getting me a root method before the end of the weekend. Comon ladies and gents... don't let me down! :D
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dandan2980:
I'm ordering mine right now gotta decide if I'm going to sell the N5 and moto x I have
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] gunfromsako:
Coming from Evo LTE and S3...gawd I hated that sammy.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Jason021680:
Just parted with my evo lte.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Th3Bill:
Came over from the m7 in June. Loved that phone, loving this one too :)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] certifiedkj:
I just got my M8 a week ago. I retired my EVO 4G LTE. Liking the M8 so far! :)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] takkun116:
I just ordered 2 of the hk m8s from sprint the other day for my girlfriend and i they will be here soon im quite excited

I currently have 2 phones the first it the unrootable zte unico lte and the second is a zte

Quartz both of which i love but it is time for the unico to go and start a contract goodbye straigt talk

I am kind of new to xda bc none of my previous phones have been on here so i apologies in advance for my ignorance of how the forum works

Oh and can anyone tell me the difference between the hk m8 and the regular m8

All i can tell is that it has a different sound driver thanks
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] stovo06:
That is all. But if you plan on root and s-off you can install the hk files to the regular one. There are plenty of sound mods you can do tho it's really up to you and what you like.

And IMO, Viper is the best ROM to use,however there are plenty to choose from at the moment.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] alienngp:
Came from Samsung galaxy S 4 and I'm glad I did cause that phone was a pain for me love my hk
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Phrostbite:
I came from a HTC one m7. I love these phones. Perfect size to fit my hand.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] schmeggy929:
Yeah ordered mine at 12:25 today. Still no shipping confirmation yet, but im hoping by Thursday as well. Coming from OG One but lost it last week and currently sporting my old Evo3D :laugh:
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] magicalan:
Ordered mine today in the afternoon, kept changing my mind on the color. Got it from the HTC website :D no confirmation yet. but hopefully this week Coming from the HTC One, upgrade is up...soo yess
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
Ordered today. Coming from HTC One. New phone every year.

There supposedly a $50.00 mail in rebate.

But wow, it was painful ordering. I knew I should have just hung up after a few minutes and tried again.

I have SERO Premium so it's risky to order on the Web Site.

It took like an hour.

Tried to pressure me into buying a Samsung Tab 3 for $49.00 (WIFI) but I'm pretty sure that would have created another line.

She wanted to send me kit for buy back. I said no. She said she'd send it any way.

Then I got home to check email and she added a $15.00 stylus to my order. Probably for the Tablet I said NO to.

They also are charging $36.00 activation fee which is B.S.

She also added Insurance and had her remove it. I think she was trying to wear me down thinking I'd get sloppy and say yes yes yes to get off the damn phone.

I didn't catch the stylus.

I feel like canceling the order it put such bad taste into the whole buying experience.

Name was Mark-Gregor but I swear it was a woman's voice. I think the names are sometimes made up. Sounded domestic though.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ahecht:
Wow, I feel lucky it only took me 30 minutes. Did you call the SERO Telesales number or the regular number?

I got all those upsells, but the woman I got was pretty good about giving up the second time I said no to each thing. The only problem I had was when she warned me that my area didn't have WiMax yet so I wouldn't get 4G speeds, but that it did have LTE which was almost as good (:confused:). The tablet deal was $50 down and $15/month for two years, which I declined.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] himeshkaul:
Anybody here who is looking for a promotion something similar to the HTC Trade UP program offered last year?

I am looking for something like that because frankly, HTC gave me the best deal last year. Purchased 3 HTC Ones replacing 2 Blackberry Curves and 1 Xperia Arc S each worth VISA Card of $100. (The curve had practically no value).

Thanks!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
I called the SERO Telesales I called a year ago. It seemed like a regular sales person but she sounded like she knew what the SERO was all about and I asked that up front.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] simonsickle:
Just ordered mine today, from sprint. Got overnight shipping so it should be here friday, since I missed the shipment time by 30 minutes!

Should be easy to work with, and I will grab a system dump and port TWRP for us sprint guys.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
At least we have a bunch of guys working on this already :).

I hear dtb may make porting TWRP a bit more complicated (whatever that means).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] simonsickle:
Yeah slightly. But the performance gain is amazing! I can handle it too. It was added back for the g2. I also know how to take care of the kernel when we get source... I think if it's not out by Monday we should start a campaign with support tickets to htc.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] KennyG123:
Ordered my gold one from Best Buy this morning. Also found a trick to get Geek Squad insurance for $5.99 a month or $99.99 for 2 years. Wait until checkout to add it. Unless they find and fix this glitch. Coming from the S3. Site says I will have it between April 1st and 4 th.

Nice to see you Kenny also coming from a s3. Waiting for sprint to ship mine :(
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] rhe12:
Ordered yesterday from spring.com. Coming from HTC EVO 4G... long story, but basically WiMax still available where I am so hadn't bothered to upgrade, but LTE is also available now so tried to upgrade to HTC EVO 4G LTE couple of weeks ago (wanted SVLTE capability) but didn't work out the way I wanted. So decided send it back and wait for the M8. Let's see how Spark works on this device...
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] KennyG123:
Yeah and an HTC noob so someone better have a great guide for rooting when mine shows up...lol. All this S off stuff sounds like dirty talk!

Will be nice to try and learn something new! Great to see all you here!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] fgcchevy:
Were u able to apply the $50 off from best buys yearly upgrade promo online?

Why the HTC m8 over the gs5? Have u had any hands on with this device, is the camera as bad as they say it is? Tia
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] scottspa74:
Wouldn't touch this HTC with a 10' pole. I hate to see em bankrupt, cuz they've been my fave OEM since 2008, but I went and played with one tonight, and they really FD up. The way they did the navbar,and made a black bar behind it, the usable screen size is exactly same as my evo LTE, held them next to each other .just a bigger device, same screen size, for practical matters. I wish it weren't so.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] KennyG123:
I had the $50 credit when upgrading already on my account and also $10 rewards so total for phone was $139. I was very disappointed in the GS5 announcement that it is just an incremental upgrade from the S4. If they had 3GB RAM as originally predicted I might have held out...but I think it is time to broaden my horizons and to experience this great audio everyone raves about. I always have my GS3 work horse to fall back on.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
Do remember that Beats Audio is no longer around in this installment of the One. However, I have heard as well that the audio is still superior. I will find out whenever I finally get mine.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] fgcchevy:
I'm also still using my gs3, and I can't justify myself to get either one of these new phones with my upgrade. I may just wait on what lg brings out or the note 4, which I've always wanted a note device.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] kidram:
So it seems a lot of people are getting this phone, I believe I made a good choice rather than the s5. Still s5 is pretty cool though
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] djjroc007:
Well.....This just made my decision a little easier...lol! The "people" coming to HTC!

Been contemplating this or the S5 for the last couple weeks. Been leaning towards this anyway. Had an OG Epic with your rom, and now the S3 for two years. Seems time for a change. (Although, I do feel kind of dirty though since I've been kind of a galaxy fanboy the last few years...lulz)

Only thing I'd like to see more reviews on is the camera. I see its only 4mp, but they call them "ultra pixels". I seen one say that its ok if you mainly take pics to upload to social media, but maybe not too good besides that. Anyone have any input on that? Of the videos that are out there, it doesn't seem like anyone is too impressed with it.

Probably won't change my decision to make the switch though, cause besides the camera, I was a little less than impressed with what I've seen of the S5 thus far.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Equinox1:
Have an upgrade available, and ordering today. Also coming from the 4G LTE.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] starcastic:
Goddamn you Sprint.

Wasted half my day yesterday attempting to order this phone and I swear I blame YOU people for making me want it more than I already did :D

REALLY wish Sprint would get their **** together though, since I'm a month or two from upgrade when ordering online they offer the Easy Pay option. You can only do this at a store, which I learn after wasting an hour or two on phone and CS chat. So I drive 45 minutes to the store at their direction, at which point I learn that the store doesn't know this phone exists, can't order it and cant set up an Easy Pay agreement on behalf of Telesales. Another 45 minutes on the phone, from the store this time, and repeating the same story to 3 separate people and their best answer is "sorry, whoever told you that was wrong."

I'm used to getting a different answer EVERY TIME I talk to someone at Sprint, but this was worse than usual, and considering Verizons current BOGO offer it's even more annoying.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Equinox1:
Think that's nuts?

I had an upgrade due on my plan, which i had switched to a Framily Plan because they told me my upgrade eligibility wouldn't be touched. So I did.

Stepped into a Best Buy yesterday because they are having a $200 dollar giftcard promo when you upgrade. They pull up my account, they can't touch Framily Plans at all, which effectively screwed my upgrade path.

Called Sprint CS yesterday, and she was actually AWESOME, rolled back my plan, restored my eligibility. Soon as that pushes thorough, going to get the phone for free at BB.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] erikivy:
Is that the same as their trade-in program or something different?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Equinox1:
Yeah, that's their trade in program promo.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] erikivy:
So what are you trading in that is worth $200? I have an EVO 3D and an EVO 4GLTE laying around. I want to keep my M7.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Ryno_666:
I can definitely relate to these problems you guys are having. Yesterday I spent an hour and a half on the phone trying to get my 3 HTC One m8's pushed through.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] DHDigital:
got it

mine arrived today (and the case from amazon 10 minutes later).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] starcastic:
Wish I could call and talk to THAT person then, everyone yesterday had a different answer including "oh, you just dont have 4G in your area". I'm supposed to HAVE an upgrade actually, (leftover from the Premier program) but I didnt even want to throw that into the mix, they were confused enough just trying to answer ONE question. I certainly didn't want to pay $650 outright for this phone though, considering I did that last April for the one I have now.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] CB620:
What case you get all the good ones I saw don't ship until April
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] HermanV0929:
I just ordered mine today from htc. A bit pricey at $799.99 + tax, totaling $863.99
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
The regular version? Why didn't you buy it full price from Sprint for $650?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] DHDigital:
The hyperion tpu case, black. When I called sprint, it was the same price for overnight shipping
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] HermanV0929:
I attempted to do that but I dont have acct access and it was taking to long for it to be sent and accepted by the acct holder. It's frustrating, I pay the bill, yet don't have access to the acct.

Edit: after all the rush to get it ordered to get it faster..it's back ordered, go figure :-/
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
Well, ok. I see your point. But that's a hefty price indeed. I would've gone to the store itself to get my account situated or something. That's a full $150 difference before taxes.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] wfrandy:
I just got mine from Sprint this morning. :D I am coming from the Evo 4G lte. Like it so far, just wish it had more usable screen size, but it will do.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] exSD:
What do you mean more usable screen size? Cause of the on-screen buttons?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dazednconfused:
Plan on picking mine up on April 10th, when it hits the stores. I gave my m7 to my son a few months ago and have been missing it. Coming from SGS3 now.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] metalfan78:
Going with HTC this time dazed? I think I am too.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] fr0st420:
Got mine in hand. Just unlocked the bootloader via htcdev. Waiting on a stock rooted rom and twrp :)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dazednconfused:
Yeah, getting tired of Samsung shoving KNOX on everything and having to work around it. I liked the One (m7) a lot so I'm sure i'll be pleased with the decision to come back. Nice to see you and kenny coming over as well.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] djjroc007:
Ahhh hell.... that seals the deal. For sure getting this now! Lol :beer::thumbup:
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] metalfan78:
Same to you
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] dazednconfused:
Lots of familiar faces showing up. How you doing? I doubt I will be releasing anything for it though. Think I'm done building roms and theming for awhile. I'll be hoping some of the Team 420 and BadSeed guys show up for this version as well.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] xPhantom:
My plan to counter this issue is to root once it becomes available and hide those on-screen navigation buttons!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] thesabri:
Where cann i find more information about this promo i ha ave not been able to find it anywhere
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] djjroc007:
Doing good, now that you and Kenny helped me make up my mind...lol. Even if you aren't building anything, at least I know there will be good support between you and the "people".

Glad you dropped those names as well. I'm not very familiar with any of the HTC devs, so that will give me something to look for as a starting point along with "The People's Sense" from Kenny (if he plans on building)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
That and the bezel. The EVO LTE actually has more usable screen than the M8.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] exSD:
DPI is lower on the m8 as well right?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] wfrandy:
Yea, what he said, with the buttons on the screen, it wasn't much of an upgrade screen wise. Pretty much everything else is great though. Much snappier performer, more memory (I was about taped with my Evo Lte, even with a 16 GB sd card), And the sound is a major upgrade. People I have talked to on the phone today have even said it sounds much better on their end. Now just need a recovery for it and it will be good to go for another two years for me (well, S-OFF would be nice too).
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] exSD:
I just got mine and I see exactly what you mean. Much nicer than the Evo LTE overall though. Very happy with it.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] firmbiz94:
mine just got delivered A lil while ago...very nice....coming from the m7 now im confused on how to get the htc music player to play music i just put on my brand new UHS-1 sandisk card....i can play it through a file explorer app ..but the music player does not see it...not sure what folder to put it in on a fresh SD card
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
This has happened to me before on the Evo LTE. Try wiping storage and rebooting the phone. That might help you.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] wfrandy:
That is odd, I just pulled my SD card out of my EVO LTE with my music on it, stuck it in the M8, booted it up and it worked right away. In fact, I am listening to it right now.
