Is this site fake? I have not heard of anyone at all winning anything from here...not even a worthless wallpaper or ringtone download. Has anyone heard anything at all that makes this site legit? Is it a waste of time?
Yes, it's legit, sponsored by HTC.
HTC even sent one Fuze to Engadget Mobile, and one to WMExperts, to each giveaway on their own sites -- although the giveaways for those are already over. Take a look here:
http://www.wmexperts.com/articles/fuze_sweepstakes_extravaganza.html
It's not fake. It's real. You only win when they pick. This is how it works. You do the thing, and someone actually decides, "Ok, this next click will be the winner," but you never know who that is or when that will happen >.> It's gay. It seems impossible to win, but you could always ask the 1 person that did lol. It's 1 in "The whole population of the US" change you have.
So what you're saying is...there's nothing anyone can do to match the 3 spinning phones. They just make the 3 match whenever they feel like it. Even if it's just for a ringtone or a wallpaper. Sad

NICE! I have been playing ever since it started and haven't wont anything.
It's legit... I've actually won a phone
I was playing off/on for a month or two and one day I won the fuze, just got it about a week ago too. I won it on Jan 20th, and it only took about 4 weeks or less to get to my house.
haha keep trying i didnt actually think anyone could win this game but i did somehow. Did they ever send you a tracking number or anything?

I didn't get a tracking number, it just showed up one day.
How does that work? I never had to put my address in, how will they know where to send it?
They ask for your adress and zip code after you win
So I just won a stupid ringtone.

Hey folks,
I'm the kind of guy who likes cool stuff sitting on his desk, and needless to say I've become infatuated with Android since its release.
There's a line of Android collectibles created by dyzplastic, and they released their line of Android collectibles today. You can either order one for $7.25, or a whole case for $112. Which one you get is totally random, but they all look really cool. They're releasing them throughout today, at different times. The second set just got released about five minutes ago (11:10AM CST) and they'll surely be gone quickly, so get em quickly!!
I'm using Chrome browser, and I downloaded an extension called "autoreloader" to reload the page every minute, until they updated their stock. once I saw the picture of the droid, I knew they put new ones out there.
I picked up four of them.
http://www.deadzebra.com/dyzplastic/welcome.php
***EDIT*** Here's the link that takes you to the page to order. If there are pictures of a single droid next to a box on the left and a pic of the case of droids on the right, they're in stock. Otherwise keep checking back!

The run lasted about 10-15 minutes and was gone, so I'd say keep watching! BTW they're vinyl and stand about 7" tall with arms you can pose.
The site says they are 3" tall, not 7".

No worries. Thanks for the heads up on this. I've been eying the Dyzplastic site for awhile for these. Hopefully they restock and allow orders today. I really want a couple of these.

Yeah, just grab yourself an auto page refresher if you can for whatever browser you're using, and sit that catalog page in the background of your laptop or desktop. That's what I did anyway, and have been watching for a few hours now. They did say they were going to release them throughout the day to accommodate people with different schedules, so I'd imagine if you keep a close eye you shouldn't have a problem.
I do, however, believe they'll sell out of their entire stock today.
Damn! From their website:
"Sold Out! Thanks everyone, what a crazy rush! We had planned to offer some more this evening but unfortunately the shop over-sold and those units are no longer available. Keep an eye on the blog for an update for which stores will have a figures in a few weeks!"

Ohhhhhh, what is this Xora and how much will it cost me I wonder?
I can't quite figure it out but I think it is $16.99 a month
This is the breakdown of what Xora is, I wouldnt touch it with a 10 foot pole, hahaha.
http://news.softpedia.com/news/AT-T-Intros-Xora-GPS-Locator-Phone-Tracking-Solution-116128.shtml
Why anyone would want to buy that when HTC SENSE does it for free when you buy the phone is beyond me.
Source: http://www.slashgear.com/htc-sense-online-portal-open-for-desire-hddesire-z-users-07106331/
Quoted directly from HTC press release:
"Ever had a moment when you couldn’t locate your phone, or even left a mobile phone somewhere? HTCSense.com gives users peace of mind should this ever occur. You can easily locate a missing phone by triggering the handset to ring loudly, even if it is set to silent, or to flag its location on a map. If the phone’s been lost or stolen, users can remotely lock the phone, forward calls and texts to another phone, send a message to the phone to arrange its return or even remotely wipe all personal data from it."
This Xora scheme and not offering Unlimited Data is whats killing the company, when will they wake up and realize this?
Iphone isnt the end of the world but its the other 'In' device other than Android phones of course so why not bring back at least unlimited data to prevent people from jumping ship to another carrier?
Its funny, a few days ago I threatened to cancel and they said they couldn't give it to me because I never had it in the first place and to contact corporate.
Why iPhone users are granted exclusivity to that feature is phonecist as well, hahaha. Yeah I know I made up a word.
Anybody figure out how to order off premier and NOT get the Xora crap ?
its $99.99 new or upgrade plan without xora... if it wont let you do it online just go in to the store.
I just got mine for 69.99 at the att store locally. They will price match the website, dont let them say they wont. Also no zora either. 75$ and sum change out the door.
You can also call ATT Premier Services and speak with them directly.
Got my Inspire for 49.99 because I *****ed about " not beign able to order online " due to some glitch with there website.
Been a customer with ATT / Cingular for 8 years now. They may seem like they don't care but trust me, if the first person you talk to gives you ****, just request to speak with a manager and have them pull some strings.
49.99 with no activation fee.. great deal
What glitch were you getting exactly? I'm thinking of calling later and trying to get a deal.

New toy came in, time to say goodbye to the captivate. For my first android phone it served me well, the unbrickable part of it sure came in handy.
As for the sgs2, it just stupid fast, no overclocked/lagfixed cappy rom comes close to its speed. Lag just doesn't exist on this phone, job well done samsung.
Time to move on over to the sgs2 section, sure gonna miss cm7 and all the other rom dev's, without them i would of hurled this phone into the wall a long time ago

Personally I'm waiting for the AT&T version ("Attain" supposedly) to drop.
Got an upgrade coming in two months, and can't wait to burn it...
Galaxy S2 is definitely the best phone on the planet right now, hope you enjoy it!
$749?! That's a difficult justification...even for this device
NVIDIA is going to release a quad core tegra 3 phone in November. I am holding out for that

Looks like my move to the sgs2 was short lived, the size of it annoyed me, so im selling it.
Some days I just want to wait what kind of phone the Death Star will drop on us, but on the others I feel like it's worth the extra hundreds of dollars to avoid the headache of AT&T messing with the phone first.

Wow, I thought you were joking until I googled it. ****, at this rate we might as well be in a perpetual state of hold-out-ed-ness lest we buy an outdated quad-core phone right as the hex-core devices start shipping in.

Not sure where to post it - I'm quite dumb founded...I have no clue what happened here or why it this way. Anybody ever seen this? I'm obviously not going to call or say anything about it but I'm praying it continues for a few more months before they fix it
Update: I complained about a data outage in my area and they gave me a $5 credit. Then I was on Twitter with an ATT customer care rep for a bit but nothing came out of it and I didn't really have an issue. I don't get how this happened unless they were being super generous. In that case, I'm complaining every month!

No the $5 credit was on my account before the bill hit. I had a $-5 balance and then this was $34 so my current balance is $29. I don't get where the $50 National Credit came from. I want to know only to keep it coming
dont worry, att will catch it and reverse it
Reps can be very generous sometimes. I doubt this will happen each month though.
I was credited $100 one month and got a free micro cell. I had no service what so ever in my house. Just out of the blue mine and my wife's phones quit working. Would have to go outside to get service. All is back working normal.
Fyi: micro cell is junk. Call quality was non existent. I would have 5 bars but it sounded like I was talking to aliens.

I wonder if they're giving out credits to HOX owners like they did with people who bought the Lumia. Might be compensation for the "Customs issue". I'm curious, where did you buy the HOX? At a corporate store or a reseller?
Hi,
I made the "Jump" today to the Galaxy S7 Edge though T-Mobile. I got tired of waiting for Marshmallow. The V10 taught me that I don't necessarily need to maintain 2 spare batteries and an external charger (despite getting them for free from LG). I even don't even use the wireless charging circuit (though trying the QC wireless is on my agenda with this phone). Does any body know a market as easy as Swappa for accessories?

I'm curious as to how you made the "Jump" to the S7 Edge on T-Mobile when it doesn't even ship until March 10th. They are only taking pre orders at this time. Guess you are gonna sell your current phone and what, do without a phone until your order arrives sometime after the 10th? Just trying to put a little common sense reality into this thread.

Then he needs to post it elsewhere cause this isn't a market for selling his stuff. That's what Swapps, eBay, Amazon, and Craigslist are for.

Thank you for letting us know. It was very important for us to know this.
We will close this before it becomes a market that is not allowed on XDA
There is absolutely no selling/buying/trading on XDA.
OP good luck with your new phone.
