That's all a load of crap. I've talked to our HTC Rep in person (Bryan Cantu) and he has personally stated that when it releases (cannot say when) it will be at Best Buy and Verizon corporate/preferred retailers on the same day. The delay will be for stores such as Target Wireless, Walmart, Sam's, etc. HTC is not the reason behind the hold-up either. My Rep has specifically stated that Verizon is holding it back due to agreements with "other partners", and as stated in a different thread he let me play with his Thunderbolt. It was working just fine, better than any other HTC in my opinion.
As far as an already rooted phone being released, that as well is not true. We have a full lineup from our March Products and Services conference as to which phones will be coming out for which carriers. It doesn't provide us with release dates, but none of them are rooted and I guarantee none of the carriers will release one that is rooted. It breaks their own terms and conditions as it gives full access to locked services such as hotspot without them paying.

i just found it funny never said i believed it nor did i go in asking about the phone lol
i only went there asking about the data plan , because when i went into the version store to ask ,, the guy was no help at all ,, he was talking about how he rooted his d1 and said he had froyo, i said yea , i have a eris running gingerbread,, when he said gb was old and froyo was the newest , i thought it be best to go ask someone else lol
and as far as that rooted phone,,,, i never said it was being released anytime soon,, he said that one of those companies are working on one
Never trust a Best Buy employee. Best Buy hires 90% retards who don't know their **** from their ass. They are dumb as hell. Don't trust anything they say they will lie to get sales or you to leave them alone. Don't shop there and take your money elsewhere(amazon.com). I hope they go out of business like circuit city and compusa.
This thread is full of fail.
And both Circuit City and CompUSA are still in business. FYI

No they are not. They both went out of business and there are no more B&M stores for either.
Circuit City name and CompUSA name are now owned by TigerDirect and basically you can buy all the same stuff from TigerDirect on either Circuitcity.com, compusa.com or tigerdirect.com
So yes they are "still in business" but its just tigerdirect expanding its business under the name of the 2 companies they bought after they had already went out of business.

300 for a phone built on last years tech...
hrmm
Gonna wait for the new dual cores maybe even the iPhone five. re-evaluate in July and get whats best of the lot. I suppose I will have to live with my Eris for a few more months. While it was a good phone, it is hard to read due to the small screen. I did however get new goggles @ 240 bucks so I could read the phone.
I got several emails from Vzw store noobs wondering when I would be releasing my payment. "before the end of Q2." Between us I had an ink issue which was resolved in a pen update the other day. Don't tell the kids working at the VZW store. I just want the check to be bold, bright, and exceptionally readable when I finally release it.

Hi all, to start of I must say I absolutely love T-Mobile. However, they just do not have the network that can keep me happy. T-Mobile just can't contend with Verizon's 3g coverage or LTE's speed. I know t-mobile has the best customer service ever but that only goes so far. Verizon also has some bad ass phones coming out. With that being said I am seriously considering switching over to big red. I would like to know everyone's thoughts and concerns on their network and customer service.
Thanks in advance everyone!

The MT4G wasn't mentioned until you brought it up in bold. The OP is talking only about carriers, not phones. If it was talking about the MT4G versus another phone, I'd understand, but it wasn't. To my mind, threads about one carrier versus another don't belong in a device-specific subforum, which is what this is. That being said, I don't see discussion going anywhere.

Even if the DOJ or FCC don't allow it, T-Mobile as we know it is probably done. Deutsche Telekom has been trying to sell it and get out of the US market for several years.
They'd been in talks for quite a while to sell to Sprint, but that didn't work out. After that soured, they agreed on the deal with AT&T. Should this not go through, most of the experts seem to think they'll sell things off piecemeal to various carriers.
It's a sucky deal for those of us who like our T-Mobile service, but the writing is on the wall.
Many of us like T-Mobile for their low rates. Unfortunately, that's part of what's been killing them. They're not making much money, and despite with their low rates are continually losing customers. Even with free or nearly free smart phones and cheap data plans, they're hemmorhaging customers. Raising prices to be inline with other carriers would most likely result in a loss of profits and customer turnover increases even more.

Just wondering how much everyone paid for their Sensation 4G in the end, and how they went about getting the deal that they got.
I am currently an EM+ customer and I called in and they basically told me that they couldn't do anything for me (I said that I was interested in signing a two-year contract). The girl just referred me to the website saying that it was 250 and 50 rebate. I mentioned the $150 walmart price and she says "Yeah I think CostCo has it for like $90 too". bummer.
Please see the thread that talks about Releasing for Tmobile. I know it's big, but a lot of it is discussing peoples deals that they got. There's really no reason to start a new thread for it. I know you know about the thread too because you've posted in it.
submitted to MOD for lock
Wouldn't it be better to have a thread specifically for this information? I don't understand how it's a bad idea. Kind of lame if this gets locked. This is general discussion.
Yeah, I just searched several different phrases and didn't find my answer either. Leave this thread alone.
because it's already covered extensively in that other thread. why make a new one to just rehash what's in another. I'd understand if it was an issue with the phone that should deserve it's on post, but you're just wanting to know what others paid for for their phones & how much *****ing/politely asking/manipulating the system they did.
Right, which will be useful information for me and hopefully many others. That other post does not state that it's about what people paid or anything. But, now you're making this thread useless with your unhelpful posts.

New contract? Renewal?
Paid just taxes on 249 (that is around $20), and got it on 2 year contract extension. Had to talk with 4 CS reps, before getting this.
Some person will get a better deal than others. I think its depend to whom you are negotiate to.
But the worry point is, some one will not satisfied with others and will complain to their carrier/supplier and in the end all will not get a good benefit due to many complain others get good deal than yours..something like starting a "war" for the good deal..lol..
That's why its better to keep to your self on a good deal. So that the war will not start..lol

Not sure how to respond. Because your absolutely correct. No one has any reason to trust me what so ever. And theres no way to change that. But my options are this or ebay. They have lost tons of value as it is because of the length of time I've had them. I'm sure I could get 500 on ebay, but by the time I pay their fee and paypal s fee for the money transfer and the shipping cost I might have 425 left. If you've sold on ebay then u know. And we all know what they cost so the thought of selling a brand new galaxy s for $212.50 seemed crazy. Wasn't sure what to do. I dont need the money but they'll be worth nothing if I continue to hold on to them. Its ok if u dont trust me.

Sure there is. I havnt sold in a couple years(another reason why I shy away, so much has changed) but i remember paying an extra .25 just to have a pic posted during search. Extra charges if you use alotta pictures. And the charge just to post, and the extra if you sell your item. Things of that sort. My accounts havnt been activated in a while. I went back to paypal the other day just to update that accout. New bank and such. Because i bought a few accesories for the captivate I use now. If the person thats interested perhaps lives in southern VA or northern NC maybe we could meet. I live on the line midway (Halifax County, VA) Or if there is someone you really trust on the forum I could send the item to the first. And when they get it they can let you know. Then I could recieve my payment. Of course it would have to be someone of high standing. I would hate to get ripped off myself. Just know I'm not here to scam anyone. I could take pics of the items if it helps. At least you'd know I actually have them. Beside a printout of this post so you know i didnt just copy a picture from the web. I'm trying here guys. I'm an honest person. I dont care if I sell them now. I guess now I'm just trying to build a little trust.

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.
