You can read the grossly exaggerated horror stories, endlessly repeated duplicate posts, and emotional circular ranting taking place on the One X forum. It's quite entertaining. There's one thread discussing graphics issues that's rambled on for 50+ pages without a shred of anything substantive to discuss. I come to the XL forum to get away from it.

It's not really backordered. It's just the system being wonky because it's a pre order. If you pre order through AT&T and you get the email stating you'll get it shipped on May 2nd, you're fine.
And as long as you order your phone before 4pm EST on the 2nd, you should get it. But to be safe, just do it on the 1st. haha
This phone is popular in the tech world, but it's no iPhone. They'll have stock.

It doesn't say it in your order confirmation? This is an excerpt of what I got.
"Your order is scheduled to be shipped on May/02/2012. Orders received after 3 p.m. CST will be processed the next business day. All orders are processed on a first-come, first-served basis. You will receive a confirmation email when your order is ready to ship."

Im gonna preorder through at&t

I pre-ordered (through AT&T) on Sunday, and the email I got says "expected to be delivered by May 4th, 2012" That's more than a week away....
I'm using my wife's upgrade, and when I went to see about the Radio Shack offer ($50 less), they said that the phone had to be on the number it was purchased on for 31 days or they'd charge the full price of the phone to my card.

[INFO] Vodafone UK Orders

I've just received an email to tell me the phone is out of stock and delivery will be 2-4 weeks!
I think that seems to be a stock mail that goes out after a pre-order,
i had the same, they did the same thing with the launch of the original nexus.
i called Vodafone to make sure that was the case and was assured that it was....still, you never know, the woman may have been lying to get me off the phone!
im gonna expect mine on the 19th but i wont be holding my breath just in case
I sent them an e-mail about not receiving my credit check response and they replied saying it was not in stock but the credit check was fine.
As long as i have it by Thursday i'll be happy.
I've had a reply back from VodafoneUK on Twitter..
We haven't been made aware of any stock delays. If there is any further info on this i'll be sure to let you know ^SM

Yeah when I ordered mine they told me it would basically go straight out as it arrived to them so they will be 'out of stock' for a while, or at least until preorders are filled.
Yes, I got the "2-4 weeks" e-mail too but assumed it's just a generic e-mail.
When I spoke to Vodafone yesterday before placing my order, I asked if they had sold out of all their initial pre-order allocation. They said no, and that I would definitely get my phone on the 19th May.
My desire was out of stock when I pre ordered. Had to wait 2wks. Hope u guys get yours so u can tell us what you think.
I just sent a tweet to Vodafone uk asking if the Sensation was still on schedule for the 19th. They replied saying, 'yes, you will receive a dispatch email soon ^ER'. Sounds promising.

No, i shall hopefully be burning to the store on Thursday
Am collecting from store too. Hopefully this week
Peeps who ordered online usually get screwed when it comes to delivery time as it's like a different sales division. Typically online team have so many phones to sell, but the telephone team also get so many phones to sell and the high street shops have so many. They WON'T dip into one another stock levels.
I got stung when pre-ordering the HD2 early on, only to find, people ringing customer services on the day of release were receiving their phone the very next day. Infuriated, I cancelled my online order, as I got a sorry we are out of stock email. And re-ordered by telephone. Was a bit of a ball-ache doing this on the phone, as you had to speak to different sales teams on the phone.
My advice is to keep ringing the telephone team and when they say they have stock, get it ordered.
I'm going after work on Thursday, hopefully make it before it closes at 17:30!
I managed to pre-order mine over the phone, only had the confirmation to say that my order had been processed! Hoping to get the dispatch email tomorrow! Last exam tomorrow, so I can play with my new toy on Thursday

Sensation Free until 3AM Thursday

Hey all,
T-Mo has a web-only deal right now from 9pm Wednesday until 3am Thursday where the Sensation is free when you add a line. Just an FYI.

thanks for the info! this could potentially save me a lot of money!
I JUST bought 4 phones from T-Mobile as I switched the whole family over yesterday. If they don't give me money back for buying 2 Sensations and 2 MyTouch 4Gs....Armageddon is coming early.
I cannot believe the employees didn't mention anything. What a waste of time and hundreds of dollars.
Are you freaking kidding me? When I just spent $200? Son of a *****.

I had no problem with them when I pre-ordered my Evo 4G, picked it up on launch day with no fuss. I'm not a fan of BB in general, but the instant rebate and the early pre-order date won me over the first time. Why not again? Plus, if they're still offering the $50 trade-in credit for my Evo 4G, that's a lot of reasons to walk through their doors.
Doent this concern the LTE version of the phone?
So it is the One-xl
Different forum for that.
So moving now
I'm going to move this thread as its not concerned with the HTC One XL. If the admins choose a combined solution, then we can move these back here at a later date. There are enough hardware and software differences that I believe this phone will have its own fora.

I like to order from bestbuy mobile because their insurance, although $2 more then Sprint, theres no copay if u ef up the phone. $100 copay through sprints insurion service. Also they have the buyback program which 22months from now, you sell it back and have enough for the next upgrade.Plus I get the upgrade through my number, they switch to my number right away. SPRINT makes u wait 30 days.
Exactly.

Bestbuy $100 rewardzone credit for cellphones including one x

So I purchased my One X on launch day at best buy (May 6th) and have premier silver so I have a 45 day return period.
I was emailed a rewardzone mobile deal today for a free $100 gc (rewardzone points) for any cell phone purchase and 24 mo agreement including the one x.
I will be going to bestbuy and getting the deal or its getting returned and repurchased. Looks like white is out of stock , but grey is still in stock if anyone is interested. Looks to be online only deal.

Just a heads up , I went to the bestbuy store and they wouldnt do a thing for me. They told me since its online only I would have to call in and see what they can do. I will try that and let you know what happens. Worst case I return it and reorder online. Im leading towards that anyways since I have a dead pixel.
I was directed to call rewardzone directly, through 1888bestbuy. They said I could get the $100, but I would need to return my phone and get it from reward zone directly.

Best buy was the only place you could find this phone in Winnipeg, Manitoba (Canada).. they seem to always have a few extra phones that are in high demand.. the thing is, it usually takes a little while for them to help you out... but at least I got my HOX on release day. the rogers store didn't even have any

What did you have to tell them to get hooked up?
All I told them was I received the deal in my email for the 100 dollar giftcard w/ any cell phone purchase (which i did less than 30 days ago) asked him what my options were , return it or if there was something he could do.
I just tried this, and they were snippy with me. They said that I'd have to return the phone. I mentioned that I "had a friend" who was just given the credit, and the rep said "I can neither confirm nor deny that." Sounded like a canned speech.

Does your receipt say it was preordered? The purchase by date was the 20th so I doubt it. Try uploading your receipt and see what happens. The worst that can happen is they say no.
Funny thing is, my promo box will be here tomorrow. Per the Note 7, it took 2 months to get the free gift. Thus time around, took 4 days, that's wild.
I'd say try it, I'd be willing to bet it'll work. Like the previous post mentioned, doesn't hurt to try. Just use the Reciept or the first page from your Lease Agreement, ehich is what I use for these things. I'd be willing to bet it'll work.

Yep, pretty awsome. I registered on the 19th, which is the same day I got the device. It was shipped via FedEx

Nah, unfortunately I didn't choose the extra $99 bundle, I wish I had tho.
My pre-order was thru Sprint and I'm not sure if we had the choice of the $99 bundle.
But you would think if you did pay the extra $99 for that separate bundle, they would ship to you earlier, than someone like myself that didn't pay for the other bundle.

Yeah I registered for the $99 bundle on the 19th and I am with Sprint. Was able to pay for it on the 20th. No label still. It's just weird their website says "order sent" cause to me that means it should be shipping. Samsung is annoying.
Weird fedex hasn't shown any movement, but then again it is fedex.
So I took you guys advices and did it. And to say that, it freaking work!!! I've been denied the first because of the wrong IMEI and WiFi Mac. So I gave it another try and got approved just this moment. So I'm currently waiting on the tracking number and when it'll ship by. All to thank to you guys!!
