Good Morning, This post if for all the non UK visitors to this forum. I have a new XDA 2 for sale. It has been locked by O2 as I received a new one via insurance but they have forgot to pick up the old one, (been 6 months now) so I know it's okay to sell. All other functions apart from the phone work, but I have been told that once it leaves the UK the phone part will reactivate itself and it will become as new. Please email me on
[email protected] with any genuine offers. Please be advised it will cost £30 to ship it anywhere in the world and this includes insurance upto £500, so add this onto the amount you wish to pay for the goods
Thanks for looking

Ok i just got a HTC Touch HD on contract with orange so i dont need my HTC Diamond anymore
I got it new from expansys 3 months ago and im going to put it on gumtree for sale, but before i do that i thought i would give people on this forum the opportunity to buy it.
Im selling it for £200 with box and everything.
So if you live in London and are willing to pick it from paddington let me know. I will put it one gumtree tonight for £220, so if you want it for £200, just reply in this thread. Thanx
Do you accept PayPal and willing to send it overseas to the United States? Also, what is the condition of the phone?
sorry mate, I would normally send it overseas but i rather avoid the hassle and sell it locally this time.
If someone from London purchases it, they will be able to inspect the phone and the contents and then give me the money.
That's cool, I figure I try anyways
Anyone know when they are coming to stores? Long story short I need to buy mine from a store and wanted to know. I don't want to wait any more!
Thanks!
the ones near me (California) were getting there TP2 shipped to them on Wed. (today)

Have the store order you one. You don't have to wait for them to get a shipment.
You have more patience than me. I had mine overnighted and got it at 8:30am the day after it came out. And THAT was too long to wait!
The manager at the Verizon store in my town said they weren't getting any and the only way to get it was special order or online order.
Wanna bet they start stocking them after Oct 3rd???? That's when the $100 rebate ends, and the price goes up to $299.
My contract ended and Oct 2nd I'm ordering one so I can be as close to the 6.5 Rom update as I can, and that will give me 30 dys to review new phones. Kind of bummed I won't get to consider Diamond 2 (pocketnow.com just posted won't come to any other US vendor other than AT&T - I'm sticking with Verizon) so it looks like it's TP2 or Omni 2 for me.
Diamond 2 is coming out on Verizon, it's known as the Whitestone. http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/verizons-htc-whitestone-leaks-out-along-with-the-htc-mega-and/

I don't mean to be argumentative, but those websites are wrong more than they are right, especially with release dates. Hopefully it is coming next month though as that would be within my 30 days and I could see which one I like better.
The release dates for all Verizon phones leaked out, up to 1st Q of 2010. No Whitestone/other devices from HTC listed.
My local Verizon (corporate) Store is large in comparison to most in the state, and they claim that they don't stock HTC devices, except the Ozone.. in fact, when I got my TP2 last Friday I went to the store looking for a universal pouch and three techs. were amazed to see the TP2 in person lol. I guess they haven't trained on the TP2 yet here.
Hopefully they stock it in the near future, I like getting my cases from that store because of the warranty.

Now that you mention it, you're right! I haven't seen a TP1 at the Verizon kiost or the store ever since its release. Havn't see ANY HTC devices for that matter...weird.

Lol, went to my local Verizon store earlier today and the same thing happened. I walked in and asked if they had any accessories for my phone as i showed it to him. He immediately yanked it out of my hand and then asked, "Can I see that for a minute" as he ran, literally, and showed it to every other Verizon employee in the store including his manager. There were like 6 or 7 other people in the store that all noticed and then they all started asking me and the Verizon employee's about the phone, I felt pretty special They told me at the store they weren't gonna get any in, only internet orders or special order.
Is anybody in Cali and able to confirm whether stores got any?
Headed that way for the weekend, so would like to grab one in person.
Seems we are all getting the same reaction from the Verizon employees when we walk into the store. Was also looking for a universal case to tide me over. It was as if time stood still - little work was done for anyone else in the store for the next 5-10 minutes.
Other news: Have to replace mine due to the screen being scratched out of the box. Corp rep said they were out of stock for a replacement! Will know more tomorrow.
I have called around in my area (Phoenix) and have found some stores have them, some don't. None have them on display and none have accessories.
Still not in our Verizon or Sprints. Looked up on T-Mobile website for a corporate owned location (not reseller) and went on down. They have working TP2s. The resellers have dummy versions for size and weight comparisons.
The T-Mobile version battery door did have a memory card door (though hard to open) and I thought I saw a reset button! Couldn't swear to it. I may look into it and see if one of their backs fit the Verizon and see if they can be bought reasonably.
I won't get my TP2 for another week though. Kind of nice watching the forum and letting others who have time get all the bugs out. I wonder if all the clean ups and hacks will start all over again for WinMo 6.5. I wish they'd start new forums for TP2 GSM/CDMA version 6.1, 6.5, and custom cooked ROMs! very dificult to follow all the versions in one thread when they go 24 pages.
Update: well best plans of mice and men... PocketNow posted "OUT OF STOCK" for TP2 at Verizon. Sure enough went on line and entered an upgrade order and would not let me submit order during rebate period as it was "out of stock." Couldn't even put in basket to be fullfilled when arrives. Called Verizon, switched me around to different sales regions and what did I find? IN STOCK in California! Mine is now on the way to FL. Oh well, I get a great phone aweek early than expected.
Oh they BETTER NOT BE out of stock this Saturday! O_O I don't care if they have to steal it from a third world country, I WANT ONE! :'(

I too have been going through the same ordeal. I added a line to my wifes plan. From being told by many verizon reps that the TP2 will not be avaliable untill early next year I settled on the TP1. That was on 9/10/09, well, lo and behold, the TP2 hit Net sales on the 11th. So i went back to the store on the 20th in the hopes of getting a TP2 of my own. No dice. They couldnt even order me one from any of the options that they had. So, we went ahead and returned the TP1 and reactivated my wifes old lg env in the meantime so i could go home and place the net order. Well, all went fine and dandy and I was even able to order the unit for $149.99 w/no mail in rebates. But, two hours later i received a wonderful cancellation email from verizon due to lack of inventory. Slightly irritating, but understandable. Now, going on 4 days later, everything has reset on the account except for my ability to order via the website. After spending hours on the phone with just about every dept in verizon and being told that the phone is going to cost me anywhere from $250+ and still have to pay the restocking fee from returning the TP1 still no luck. I finally did talk with a phone sales rep that was the most helpful of anyone i have spoken with to date. He promised that as soon as he gets any word about the availability of the TP2 he will personally call me and have the order set to go asap. The only issue he said i might have is for some reason the original order that was canceled is not fully showing up in his system, but there is a reference to it in the account. According to him, when it becomes available again he will call me and if it still doesn't show the canceled order that i will be able to send him the email and they will fully honor it. We will see...
Sorry for the long rant, just had to get it off my chest. Its been a fairly irritating past week of dealing with VZW trying to get them to get their stuff straight.
Hopefully i will have a new TP2 in the next handful of days.
I went into my store on the 19th and he said they don't expect to ever get them, only direct fulfillment. So I ordered it online when I got home and it arrived the 22nd.
After 9 months of FRU'ing Touch Pro's, the guy at the Verizon store informed me that they finally had TP2's online as a possible Multi-FRU upgrade.
After more than a week of daily calls to Verizon and finally getting mine (after paying the 2 year contract price as a discount instead of receiving the multi FRU), I can say the following with relative certainty.
1. They don't anticipate displays in-store before the start of 2010. 2 local store managers claimed they have already requested them, and that Corporate was stalling the launch (much the same as the TP.)
2. If you order over the phone and complain enough about your existing phone, you can get it for the new every 2 price, pretty much regardless of your current status. Keep in mind, it will reset your next upgrade date.
So it's getting close to Sunday, even some people were lucky enough to get them early. My question is, does anybody know of a place to order one of these that will ship to Canada? Other than waiting for them to show up on eBay?

Since bestbuy will carry it on sunday, you can PROBABLY buy it online and pay extra for the mailing.
So it's release day, my birthday, and I'm having no luck. I tried to get in on the Wal-Mart action this morning and failed cause I have a Canadian credit card which they wouldn't accept, which turned out ok since the canceled orders anyways. Next I tried Best Buy, they were willing to sell me on for $500 but I had to get it shipped to a US address first. I managed to find a cousin in the states who would accept it and then send it up to me, excellent. I called Best Buy up to order the phone and they told me they couldn't sell it off contract and that I would have to go to an AT&T store. I called back, got another agent and she informed me I could order the phone off contract. Just not now as they currently aren't shipping that phone and that I would have to go to a store and pick one up.
Does anybody know of any other online stores that are selling the Captivate today?
they wont be shipping the phone out until the 20th. depending on what delivery method you chose, you might not get the phone until next week monday. wtf

i have not had a phone sense friday bro.. i know what your going through...
i got the 4G in the mail and had to send them it back before they would place the G2x order....
try going to tmobile store and see if they have a loaner phone for you to use till you get the G2x... (im sure your contract started when you bought the phone so if there billing you and your not using it then ***** youll get something done if not a decent credit)
I bought two phones from Wirefly and was told that it would ship out on the 20th. It was no surprise for me and I planned accordingly by ordering 2 day shipping for $8. It will hopefully be here on Friday.
I am getting each phone for $150 vs $250 up front = saving $200 up front
I also got free activation fees and free shipping= $35x2= $75 up front
I think saving $275 and waiting 2 extra days is worth it to me. It will be in my hands soon enough.
That sucks if you were never told this though. I thought I even saw it on the website.....
yeah. the rep i spoke with friday told me they'd ship it monday
I ordered from tmo. Got the tracking number but it has yet to be updated since "billing info received". =( I should have got at least one update by now. Ordered the first day is was available too.

DO NOT GO BY WHAT T-MOBILE.com SAYS! (there website sucks at current info)
i ordered mine also first day (4/15) and i didnt get a txt till staurday saying it will be delivered 4/20... then 10 mins later a txt saying it will be delivered 4/19 WITH a tracking number... it still says on the ups site that it isnt shipped yet...
i called a rep and she said she cant see anything till the 20th because it doesnt show inventory till its actually released (4/20) but i assume it will be here by the 19th and she assured me it would also....
t-mobile does not know whats going on... (people are getting txts saying it on back order)
and they cant tell you if it will be on back order till the 20th...
so to sum it all up...
if you got a tracking number (friday/saturday its estimated to be at your house the 19th... if you got a tracking number today... expect it to arrive the 20th)
hope it helps but that is all the info i could pull outta her...

I NEVER use their site to order, or to do anything. I always call 611. I put my order in Friday night at 7, UPS picked it up Saturday at 6am, and it's now on the UPS truck on the way to my house. If you call T-mobile, they'll give you (or should) a tracking number. Don't be surprised if it shows up on your doorstep today.
I've had a tracking number since Friday morning. The phone just showed up in the UPS system at 10:00AM today. The arrival scan was in Louisville, KY, a UPS hub. It appears that to save a few bucks T-Mobile's bulk transporting orders to the UPS hub. So what Nate said is correct, the estimated delivery date in the UPS system is accurate even if it shows "billing info received" and Friday's orders should be delivered tomorrow for those that went for express. Based on comments on the T-Mo forum they really screwed up the ordering process for the G2X.

I ordered friday and they told me it was backordered on the phone. However I got a txt Saturday with tracking and estimated delivery on the 19th. Tracking number says they have not received package. If I am to get it tomorrow then they should have the package by now.
Wish I knew when I was really getting it. :-(
Since we are on the subject of 3rd party websites. Cellhub just shipped out my phone as of today. Estimated delivery date is on the 20th. Paid $515.00 off contract think it was a better deal than paying 499 + tax + shipping from TMo
Cancel your orders, this is cheaper alternative $49
Listen, just cancel that Wirefly transaction while you have time! After you check this out, YOU WILL!

Also to each his own, if this don't pertain to you or you ain't interested, just mosey on by like you driving Miss Daisy! This is for the people that actually like keeping money in their pocket instead of just giving it away!
Oh yeah, and if you order today, you will get on the 20th because Fed Ex is 2 day shipping this and free activation. I know I can't wait to break the tape on that infamous box Wednesday!

Exactly.....saving the money is well worth a couple to even a few days of wait. I saved $100 going through letstalk. (Probably should have checked Wirefly.)

So I checked their page and it turns out they send their employees to submit all these reviews about how great their service is as a way of advertising for the company. But if you browse other reviews outside of Cellhub's website, their company is actually rated pretty low by previous customers.
Anyways, I finally got my Bold 9780 from Costco yesterday, and I absolutely LOVE it.

I actually almost bought the phone through Cellhub, but after a closer look during checkout I realized that they only offer the phone for free if you purchase an $80+ plan, otherwise the phone changes to $149, which is more expensive than almost every other store is selling it for, including T-Mobile. I think this is somewhat of a false advertising from their store, and I really dislike false advertisers lol.
So if you plan on getting a basic plan I would go with another store, or even T-mobile itself. I think that would be more trustworthy than a faulty advertising internet store.
I thought the name was familiar... cellhub.com was spamvertized in our blogs just before Xmas. Members may want to consider suppliers who are not associated with spammers.

As I stated in my reply to these posts, to each his own. No matter where you buy the phone, you need to check the terms yourself. As far as people complaining about them, who doesn't complain about such and such company on here, for real the whole web if you wanna be technical.
I can honestly tell you I have had bad experiences with all three carriers. Their all crooks if you ask me, however if I want to use a cellphone or service, unfortunately I have to suck it up and go for what I know.
Research yourself and take the best deal. I don't care where you get the phone from online, I can guarantee there's some complaints about that company on the internet ( and I bet they have similar addendums on their contracts). I don't care if it's Amazon, Wirefly, TMI-Wireless, even Walmart.
Just google complaints for the company you ordered yours from, you'll see.
So, basically it comes down to doing your research and choosing the lesser of the evils.
Hope that helps.
Anyone know the numbers being dropped to stores? Plan on getting mine Wednesday at a retail location
A T-mobile store manager told me today, that each store would get between 10-20 units to sell.
