I've been searching for the lowest prices for the HTC DNA and stumbled upon this deal and figured I'd share it with you guys.
The HTC DNA for only $119.99... probably the best deal out there right now.
If you use coupon code TALK4TEN it MIGHT lower the price to $99.99, but it didn't work for me. Anyways, I figured it would maybe be worth a shot for you since it has worked for many other people... but it MAY have expired.
Enjoy guys.

That price is so low, it's like a trick you play on old people!
I just posted this.
Why would anyone buy another HTC phone after this? Maybe you'll get Android 5 in 2015.

My Thunderbolt is not horrible. I am a power user and while I have had problems with mine, the worst issues were with custom roms. Data drops were fixed with a new SIM card. I do have an extended battery that lasts all day. I was ready to throw this phone against a wall when I kept having issues with different roms. I had to remove root because the company I work for requires MobileIron to connect to our exchange server. Since I have been back to factory condition the phone actually works pretty well!

Agreed! I love my TB. I have flashed so many ROMS i can not even keep them all straight. I have been stuck with Liquid ICS for a few months and it has been FANTASTIC! I flashed the most recent dual radio last night and hope it clears up the data in/out issues i have had. I would love them to fix the video camara and netflix at some point but from what i read Liquid isn't working on the project anymore. Is that true?
I have an extended battery and with Liquid i get at the very least 16 hours of use including some standby time. Liquid's rom made a world of difference on battery life.
In any case i am fairly new to this forum. Played over at CM with their rom for a while and still have it on my Touchpad. Love that rom!
Anybody know of a good rom for Droid X by Motorola? I rooted and installed one on my wifes a few months back but know it isnt perfect. I cant recall what it is at the moment but if anyone has had a good experience with a Droid X rom please share.

They do not show the promotional prices yet
Judging by the reply in the blog, I am assuming it's going to be a big sale
I've been wanting to get the DNA, I guess I will wait until the 18th

As a DNA user who loves his phone, it's arty if you're going to wait till the 18th I'd wait till the m7 odds announced on the 19th just to see if and when it's coming to Verizon. That's just me, but unless you're hellbent on the DNA, ous wait to see if the DNA+ it's right around the corner.

I went back to the site (justmywireless.com) to see if there were any hints as to the sale price. They have it in sneak peek mode...I picked up the DNA for me and Galaxy 3's for my wife and son.....I paid $160 for all 3!!
They even have Galaxy 3 (white and brown) renewed units for free with upgrade....I was seriosuly thinking of going that route for my son, but in the end paid 44.99 for his new one.
The m7 is going to be priced too high I'm sure, that's why I didn't wait.

I remember hearing that the deals on wirefly and amazon were so good because their penalties were so high and because they technically count as a premium reseller, and thus you have to go to then with warranty issues and whatnot instead of going to Verizon. I wonder if this reseller is the same.

I had this phone for few hours now and it is unbelieveable fast and responsive.
The screen is better than in my previous Galaxy S 4G and actually feels better and more responsive. The colors are unbelieveable and more natural than SGS4G. Black colors will not make me return this phone at all.
Thr speakers are super clear as well. Actually got surprised by how clear the sound is.
Data speeds and reception have been great as well.

Did you call to cancel your service or did you speak to the sales department?
In my experience, the sales department would never make an offer like that so I'm guessing you were threatening to cancel unless you got a deal like this.
I actually talked to CS first and told them the problem that I was having with GPS on my vibrant and then she connected me to some other department(customer loyalty I believe). Then I nicely explained the stiuation with the phone having GPS problems even after the current replacement that I had. And he asked me, if I might consider an upgrade and I just told him that I could give it a try to see if the next phone is better. And then I told him that I cant upgrade all three phones right now but I might in future. So I asked for G2x and he expided for me and devided $250 into four month payment + $50 rebate. (btw, I have been with tmobile since 2004)
loving it so far only 1 problem
so im loving the phone so far. coming from droid 1. havent been able to test the 4g much yet only 2g at the house. I do miss some of the customizations in my rom Sourcery from the droid one will get to porting it to this when we get what we need from the great cm. coming over from verizon obviously. my only complaint is i was under the impression the tmobile girl would come welcome me and she hasnt shown up yet
I had a chance to briefly try one of these out at the store today and was really tempted to just buy it. I currently have a nexus one so it's a huge step up. The only thing holding me back is the HTC Sensation which is supposed to come out in june. Do you guys think it's worth waiting for over the g2x?

I'm thinking about it, is anyone else?
Has anyone of you played with one yet? I hear they have CM7 on it already....
After jumping to several new phones and then being pissed while waiting on a good ROM to come out, I have finally seen the light. I am no longer jumping to a new phone the second it comes out. When I see that there's a good amount of dev being done on a device, then I'll switch. That's right around the time something new comes out... So, I'll still be upgrading every year or so, but about 6 months after the new stuff gets released.
Thankful for the devs that make these phones great!

And when I do swap, it'll probably be for the Prime...
No, the Charge is a quality device and I will be happy with it until there is a phone launched with ICS on Verizon. The Bionic has no guarantee for timely software updates and comes with too much bloatware for my taste. Honestly, I only bought the Charge to have unlimited 4G data. I would have rather just waited for a device with ICS but Verizon forced my hand.

The Bionic has way too many disadvantages for me starting with the awful looking washed out/grainy pentile screen, the camera sucks etc etc etc
My boss had one for two days & I played with it constantly before he returned it. Neither of us where impressed with the thing at all.

No way. This phone does everything I need and more. The screen is awesome by the way.

I am spoiled rotten by Super AMOLED and + displays. There is no way I would be happy, content, or even mildly okay with a pentile fuzzy screen. If something comes out that is faster, has more memory, AND has an awesome screen then I may consider it. I don't have to have a screen as good at the Super AMOLED or Super AMOLED+, but they sure have set the bar really high for me.
The screen was the deal breaker for me, no point in having a super fast phone if it looks like s*!#

AMEN Brother
I've had just about all the smartphones out & only 2 or 3 have been an upgrade
I am on contract but don't mind selling the phone to recoup some of my loss..
Two reasons why I'm thinking of moving away from the DC.
1. Handset speaker volume to low during a call...yes I have it all the way up!
2. No matter what ROM I use, the phone gets laggy after a few days and needs rebooting to clear. Using Zeam as launcher right now too!
Battery life is ok, get about 2 - 2.5 hrs of "screen time" a day
I do love the screen though...except for the over saturated colors....wish there was an app to adjust saturation

Well, I have to totally agree with you on all of those. #2 is the one that really kills me, especially when you are trying to do something as simple as making a phonecall.
We need a good app like QuickGamma, that would fix the colors with the screen. Red is WAY overblown!
The bionic's screen is horrendous ..

Many Fascinate users were upgraded to the Charge for free during a short period of time. I, myself, was one of those users and I am eligible for an upgrade if I were to see something I really liked.
As was pointed out, many other people buy phones off contract. There is a huge used market. Many folks will buy a like-new used phone and turn around and sell it when something bigger/better comes out to recoup some value from it. There are lots of folks that upgrade their phone several times a year for a number of reasons.
I don't upgrade that often, but I've seen others that do.

There was word JB would be pushed to International Versions of the S3 but I guarantee Verizon will be the last US Carrier and probably the last of the S3 phones to push the JB OTA.....
Samsung, vzw, and google all have to sit around in a room and stare at a gs3 that is sitting on a table in the middle of them for 6 months. They will literally have a team of engineers and marketing people just sitting there staring at it. The vzw guy on the team will have a thumb up his ass for reasons unknown. Their budget will be nearly unlimited. Meanwhile a few guys in their spare time and no budget will have a port running almost perfectly 2 days later. That 2 days happened the other week so we have over 5 months to go for an official release.
My bet is that the build's done. It's probably 95% identical to whatever is on the Note 2, with S-pen stuff being the only difference.
Now it's on to the carriers, which as we know (T-Mobile leak) some already have it nearly complete.
I bet a month for everyone but Verizon.

The machine they use to cram the bloat up the phones ass takes a lot of power/time to get all of that crap up there.
Well I just came from the gnex boards and a new leak is out for vzw gnexs with new radios and possibly jb. So I'm gonna say we will get jellybean 2.5 months after all other s3's have it. But oh well....running paranoid android on my s3 right now and pretty darn stable. Also got 20 hrs or so with only 2 hours screen time but I was tethering for approximately 8 of those hours which IMHO is amazing.
Was going to have a couple screenshots of battery life but then playing that new space shuttle landing game which glitches out and caused a reboot.

That is certainly true but I also suspect that HTC wouldn't bother devoting any resources to developing s/w for a phone if a carrier has even a remote chance of shooting it down.

From what I understand it is but the build was a very incomplete rom.

My understanding, right or wrong, was that HTC/VZW released some T-Bolts with an ICS "soak test" to around maybe 100 people? I applied too late to get in on it. The phone came with an NDA that apparently was almost iron clad as there were NO leaks at all until after the test ended and the test phones were returned.
It's my belief that the TeamBAMF leak was from one of those phones, someone may have copied it to his/her/it's PC and leaked it AFTER the test had closed and AFTER he/she/it had learned how to remove the identifying bits so that he/she/it wouldn't be subject to enforcement of the NDA.
I may be wrong, the above is merely pieced together from what I've read here and elsewhere.
FWIW, I ran the leak and had the usual short battery life BUT..... Later I restored the backup I'd made and, after a couple of days, the battery life improved a huge amount, it became about the same as other ICS ROMS.
As always, YMMV.

They probably had the same issues as the devs did and can't figure it out but it's on the back burner and not forgotten. I hope

At this point, I would be pretty surprised if ICS was released at all. I found that ICS, combined with Sense 4, is too much for the phone to handle smoothly. And I'm sure it would be worse when the typical Verizon bloat is added. Some work could probably be done to make it smoother and more power efficient, but I don't think that struggling HTC has any motivation to expend development resources on a phone that's rapidly approaching its second birthday.
Most Thunderbolt owners are able to upgrade now, or at least will be in the next couple months. Most people probably will -- and might even get a DNA. At least that's what HTC hopes!
I blame HTC for turning their backs on their customers and I will never buy another HTC product. They probably won't be around much longer anyway.
They have promised ICS for the Bolt several times before. I got tired of waiting, upgraded to Droid Maxx HD. 3 days after buying it Verizon pushed out Jelly Bean. Wow it was nice to actually get an update that fast!!!!

If they wanted me to get a DNA they'd have given it a removable battery and an SD card slot, as it is it's totally useless to me.
Well, the screen on my One X died yesterday, and I was unable to revive it. After some wrangling with Customer Service, they're upgrading me early to a One. I'll probably drop in here from time to time, but I'm off to the One forums. Happy modding, and hope to see most of you over there eventually.

Tried to do that a few weeks ago when One XL #3 took a crap, but the One had just come out and it supposedly wasn't in the CSR's system. I ended up with XL #4, which, so far is working great (and is now rooted and S-off - hurray!).
Good luck with your One!
Thanks for the bootsplash ideas. Might come to the one sections to make some for it after I reign in sense 5.

This happened to me. Have you tried taking it apart and adjusting that cable that is bent at 90°? That worked for me, but the phone caught on for shortly after. enjoy the one. I'd get it if att wasn't conspiring with HTC to keep away the rooters, and I don't want to pay $650 since the nexus 4 is great for under 400

Att didn't trip about you sending back tampered phones ? (relocked bl)
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Nope. I did relock and RUU back to stock each time, but I didn't bother changing the CID back or anything. Heck, the most recent one was S-off.
I haven't had any ROM related issues, though. It was always hardware.

Id get the one also if I didn't have to pay $450 for a "partial upgrade" why pay that much to enter a BS contract when I can hopefully hold out till the nexus 5 rumors start. This will be the longest I've ever used a device as my primary phone lol

I have not read a single instance on here of AT&T denying warranty service, or even giving a poo at all, about unlocked bootloader or custom ROM being on a phone. But lots of reports of folks here successfully sending in "tampered" phones for warranty service on a hardware issue.

I'm thinking about it, but I'm not going to take it apart until I'm sure I'm sticking with the One and all is well.
FWIW, HTC is not blocking the One, whether or not AT&T ever plans to ask them to. Looks like the rumors were wrong.
The international One roms work great on the AT&T version. I don't think I'm ever going back to an AT&T base.
Also, the frustrating multitasking issues on the One X? Not a sign of them on the One. :victory:
Just dropped mine and the screen shattered the other day. Have ensquared so paying $75 to have another one sent to me.
Honestly a little bummed I couldn't get a Samsung gs3 (or onex+) shipped out instead, but ay least I'll still have a phone .

I honestly want it, but I don't think my contract is over with the one x until late this year, and I'd rather not pay the cancellation fee :\ or the $650 Google version with aosp or Dev version

Lots of people have gotten early upgrades by complaining loudly enough. I was at least six months early.

Agreed. I lost my phone about 6 months before my upgrade was due, and ATT was more than willing to send me a One X. I paid a whopping 99 cents for it

Did you guys have AT&Ts extra insurance, or is this the normal 1 year warranty? My battery has been really screwey recently, keeps getting drained really fast when the phone is sleeping. I'm wondering if I should just go make some noise.
