(Nexus 5)
In the email confirmation after I placed the order they say my credit card won't be charged until the order has shipped.
Its status is still "PENDING - Leave warehouse in 2-3 weeks" and my credit card has been charged. Why?
And the cancel button is still there, but I wonder if I cancel this will the money go back to my credit card or what?
This is so confusing because they say they don't charge the money until it ships but in reality they do.
This is actually my older brother's credit card but I use it with my google account so I don't want him because of me lose the money or have to do troublesome things to get his money back.
I basically don't want this phone anymore but not sure what to do.
Does anyone know what I should do?
Thanks
Call them, if they didn't prepare the order you can cancel if not deny the package and the money will go back to the card

Your card hasn't been charged. Google placed a temporary hold for the amount of the phone(to make sure that A) billing info was right, B) you have the correct amount available). In 2-3 days, it will disappear and the money will be back. Then shortly before the device ships, they will charge it.
If you're outside of the Cancellation period, your only option is to either A) Report your credit card lost/stolen and have the company issue you a new one(this will cause Google's charge to be declined due to the old CC number being invalid), or B) Sit it out and refuse the device when it's delivered.
I had to do the same thing with the original Nexus 7--ordered it from Google, but found it locally cheaper and couldn't cancel.
So confused. Why did you order the Phone using your brother's card in the first place.

So you used your brother's card and hoped he didn't notice then he saw the "charge" and got mad at you and now you want to cancel it?
What were you going to do if there was no "charge" and in 2-3 weeks the phone ships?

Lol you made me laugh,
He let me used his card and I'll give him cash later. But now I don't want the phone anymore because im not rich and want to save some money to get a laptop (a high end one). I also realized that it's not worth paying the bill every month for the phone service just for me to use some mobile data. Even if I use T-Mobile 30 dollar plan I still have to spend $360 a year.
More importantly I already have an iPod touch 5 to play with. I just want some mobile data to use and an android phone cause I like android better but I think I'll have to wait until our financial problems are gone.
BTW I don't know my brother's card number, security code or whatever

Then why buy a high end laptop if you have financial problems? I would suggest getting a refurb laptop from newegg or tiger direct. I got a 900 dollar laptop at the time for around 400. Great Asus laptop and it runs everything smooth. It's 2 years old and is perfect for college work and traktor that I use to dj live.

Here are some pics of the new T-Mobile device
http://www.tmonews.com/2011/05/t-mobile-branded-htc-sensation-4g-in-the-wild/
Thats a damn shame Tmobile has to put that ugly damn logo right on the front of the damn phone, put it on the back or something. But enough complaining, this phone is gonna be absolutely stellar and the new and improved htc sense is absolutely terrific, this phone is an instant win
great find!
the box is a little different than the vodafone version, but aside from the logo pretty much the same.
sigh... I knew it was a long shot but was secretly hoping that t-mo would somehow get a bicolor version back
I can't wait! June 8th is taking forever
Anybody know if mobilecityonline is trustworthy? They have the T-Mobile unlocked Sensation 4G for $600. 100 more than I think T-Mobile will have it for but it'd be unlocked...

why order it from a 3rd party online when you can order it directly from tmo on june 8? unlocking it won't be a problem I'm sure
The option for international shipping I think is a big reason.

Aside from the international shipping that Elchemist mentions (I have friends in the US who might be able to bring it to me) I don't know if unlocking is that easy.
Unlockers and repair shops here in Mex tend to be befuddled by foreign phones (one more reason I wish I were back in Canada) and T-Mobile, according to their page, only gives unlock codes to account holders in good standing (45 days postpaid, 60 pre-pay). This leaves the option of online unlocking services which sometimes take a while to appear for new handsets (I don't feel like having a phone for a month which I can't use for calls).
solsearch, an easier way would be to use one of the online unlocking sites and just input the code yourself. Now if only S-Off was available...

yeah I'm curious why tmo went with different packaging as well. it's the same as their version of the hd2
Does anyone know what types of goodies the sensation is coming with? (the contents in the box)
what was shown in the link was headphones, charger, USB to microUSB cable and battery.
EDIT:
on closer inspection, the open back shot shows a microSD card of unknown size. The vodafone versione comes with an 8GB card pre-installed in the phone.

Well, first I'm going to see if my uncle is still with T-Mobile as that'd be the easiest/surest way.
As for the packaging I don't really get why people care, vendors, reviewers, etc. sure as it affects appeal, but for those who already decided to buy it? Does it really matter? Worst case scenario you keep the box at the back of some closet or you toss it, it doesn't affect the device (branding on the device is another matter). Too bad branding is on the screen, if it weren't people who really cared could just buy a different back cover.
And it seems it won't come with a microSD card according to that screen shot (the one of the box). Remember that just because the pics show one in the phone it doesn't mean it'll be included, after all whoever is using it probably would want one in there... I'm slightly disappointed but I don't care too much as I'll be buying a 32GB one anyways. I could have used the 8GB one for less used content but 8GB cards are cheap anyways.
But I think I am definitely getting the T-Mobile US version as it kind of seems like kismet. My birthday's on the 9th and if I'm really lucky I can have this prezzie for myself on that day
I hope mobiTv, telenav and some other useless apps will not be preloaded. Also hope it will have tethering option right out of the box like G2x and G2. The greatest feature of tmous, wifi caling should be there but just worried about the battery when it comes to wifi calling. It seems to kill battery very quick on my Vibrant and it was also battery hog on G2x. Still very excited for june 8th though!
Edit: just saw mobiTV on the box, dang it!... T-mobile we dont want your bloatcrap on the phone!

That's good. I just assumed it wouldn't be as it isn't mentioned in the "What's Inside" part (I figured they'd mention it even if not the size).
Through HTC-USA I ordered a warranty replacement back shell for my T-Mo Sensation 4G on Monday. The power button on mine is caved in and the volume rocker is loose. Ofcourse i have to send mine back to them AND pay for the shipping. Well today being Thursday I called HTC to see why i haven't gotten a tracking number or any follow up. They informed me that they are having issues with customs due to a legal issue and the covers because of this are now back ordered and it could be weeks before i see it. I almost got upset but I realize it's not their fault.
Point being, if you plan on going directly to HTC for anything replacement wise (any replacement accessories for any HTC device) you will have a very long wait I was informed. Just passing information that may be useful to someone else.
Also, does anyone care to guess the legal issues the rep mentioned?

I ordered mine two weeks ago as a one-time accessory replacement that HTC does. To this day, I haven't received anything, although the rep told me that they are shipped via FedEx Ground and I should have it within 3-5 days.
i called this morning also and got the same ''we are having issues with customs due to a legal issue'' bs. its been a week and a half!

They took my credit card information too...I got no answer today....Going to try them in the morning. This is out of control. I don't abuse these services at all so why should we have to suffer? I don't think it's that.
Remember Apple filed that "Stop import" order with the ITC like a month ago because of the "alleged patent infringement"? I hope that's not it man. Can't even power my phone off without jamming my finger in the hole. PAUSE!
I called last Monday, still hadn't gotten it today, it's been over a week, called today, they're on back order, give it a few more day's is what the guy said.. Awesome.
Also, didn't pay, didn't send mine back. You can replace each "accessory" while under warranty one time.

Nah I called them today and spoke with a supervisor and found out that they were losing money on the back covers as they cost them $40 to make and ship to us so they had to start asking for ours back in return so they can refurb those covers and asking from my card information was simply a "precautionary measure" incase I don't send the back cover back. But in a nutshell it is still free. But I have to pay to send it back from a shipping method of my choice.
The covers are still in US Customs and wont be out until next week...At that time they will goto HTC who then has to sort them and then assign them to each person in the order the orders were placed and process the orders..So we are looking at another 1 to 2 weeks she informed me at the longest.
I finally received mine after two weeks of fedex saying they left it at my door. Before that had called htc and told them I had never received cover even though fedex website said it was delivered. Called htc saying I never received cover so now I'm expecting another one.

I guess so many people called in for the replacement covers, HTC decided to implement a new warranty replacement procedure. I ordered mine a few days earlier than you (July 21, to be exact), and was instructed by the rep not to send the old one back, but to properly dispose of it. I wasn't asked for a credit card number.

So after FedEx marked it as "DELIVERED", it took two more weeks for the package to actually materialize??? Unbelievable!
On a side note, do you remember when you placed the order? It's been 3 weeks today since I ordered mine - still nothing (although, as Freshly Snipes pointed out, the new covers won't be released from customs until next week)! With regards to the tracking, did HTC send you a notification e-mail with the tracking number?
I am now convinced they (Call Center in Indiana) have NO IDEA what they are talking about. Clearly these have BEEEN out of customs. My back cover came today. They acted like they weren't even here in the United States.
But oh well..I'm happy now. However my power button is STILL loose and clacks louder than before..But you can't win all the wars. I made a video showing the process for those who are confused.

Haha guess so?
So today this app called Locket was just released. Basically it pays you about 1 penny sometimes more for each ad. The ads are not really annoying like those push notifications. How it displays is when you wake up your phone and then it's there on the lock screen. From what i see it's pretty much like deals and big brand names. Check it out, if you're like me you unlock your phone A LOT throughout the day lol. Oh and the best part is you don't have to actually visit the ad since it's already paying you for displaying it on your phone.

It seems to be set to allow you to earn a penny a few times in a specific time period then a wait for a specific time period is set for it to stop displaying 1 penny when that time is up you are able to receive a few cents until you do so many times within a set time then it just loops

3 cents per hour. Pays out in PayPal at the moment, but in future updates, it might be Amazon/Google Play cards (My guess anyway).
They're thinking of other ways to display ads, so far they're saying that they don't want to go the notifications route.
I've made $0.56 so far. They said they give out bonuses sometimes too. I think I already got a $0.10 one.
Here is my ref.

Well hot digity dog.... I can quit my day job!!!
If this is legit I doubt it will last long nor will anyone make much money.I am sure there is a limit on the unlocks per day and not worth it.
Next here comes the guy who makes an app where your lockscreen blinks on and off constantly......See where all this is going???,,,,,,wont be going very far thats for sure. Save yourself some time and move on, most likely a scam anyways.
EDIT: Well I will eat my words, I guess its legit. You just need an app to unlock your phone screen three times per hour , 24 hours a day to make $262.80 over the course of a year,

They've already said that they can easy oust people for trying to sign up multiple times. And obviously, they also have your IP address among other stuff. I am a part of so many survey groups and stuff. They aren't going to catch you right away, but they're going to hit you the MOMENT you try and cash out.
They can do it the way AT&T does it... They can see whether or not you have a tethering app by just having one of their apps installed. Hence a lot of people get caught tethering sooner or later by just having the myAT&T app installed. These guys can tell whether you have Tasker or similar installed and if it's running.
Need locket-beta apk file
Hey guys,
I'm from India and I'd love to try this app. I've tried changing my Billing address in Google Wallet to be able to download this app but I still cannot. I'm now being charged in USD for purchases instead of INR but this app still shows as incompatible with any of my devices. Also, I've tried using Market Enabler but that hasn't worked either. Can someone upload the apk for me please?
Thanks,
Mahesh
Nevermind, I just found it on another thread. Just in case someone else needs it. It's here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43800419
Just installed it on my N7.
Seems to work so far, but haven't tried to withdraw any cash yet!
Didn't have to do any VPN or market enabling. As long as you know a genuine US zip code, I reckon it will let you sign up, and they are easy enough to find.

Where theres a will theres a way Get xPrivacy app and they cant tell anything about whats on ur phone its none of their business anyways. Root, install Xposed, Install xPrivacy, and tell it what apps u want to restrict & want to stop them from seeing.

Seriously?
"This app is incompatible with your device." I have a LG Optimus 4X on stock JB in UK. WTF?

And they can always still restrict you for not having access to it. :silly:
Up to $5.85 here. :good:

3 cents per hour. Pays out in PayPal at the moment, but in future updates, it might be Amazon/Google Play cards (My guess anyway).
They're thinking of other ways to display ads, so far they're saying that they don't want to go the notifications route.
I've made $0.56 so far. They said they give out bonuses sometimes too. I think I already got a $0.10 one.
Here is my ref.

Oh, and US only at the moment.

I've got it running on my Nexus 7, and I'm in the UK. Up to 12 cents so far :laugh:
Downloaded the apk from the link at the top of this page, and I just registered with a US zip code (90210).
So i just switched to t mobile from verizon and there i was tethering something like 60gb a month with no repercussions. So when i moved i got the unlimited everything and i know that doesnt count for tethering. so i decided to see what would happen when i tried.

This is from about 4 hours of testing.
Question is, where do i see tethering usage? or have i gotten passed it with running a custom rom? Or are they going to nab me after a month or so?
Thanks guys!!!
grab the tmobile my account app..

thanks man. got it and it shows that i have been using the tethering. Just what i wanted to know :good:
I think I've heard of other carriers looking into it if they notice an unusual amount of data. At which point they would charge you for the data you used or terminate your contact. However T-Mobile doesn't have contracts anymore, so. . . Not sure.
I think they mess with that though. I have about 1GB used every month for hotspot. Even though I have never used it. Not even once. Called a rep and they were just like "Uh yeah that's uhhhhhhh really weird".
I have 500mb of tethering but I used about 2.5GB just tethering last month (about 3.5gb total) and haven't gotten billed anything extra.

I've never heard of anyone on TMO getting billed for tethering after the fact (the onus is still on them to stop it at their own limit), but they sure throw the upsell page in a hurry. Also, I wouldn't be too shocked if they begin killing accounts that deliberately abuse their terms of service. (That is to say, tether-cheat at your own risk, no whiners when you get busted).

Sorry, thats what I meant. I've never seen that screen that people are talking about. Probably because it's a Nexus and all the previous phones I've had all had international roms on them.
They definitely won't terminate accounts without notifying people. As long as people don't use like 100GB a month, I don't think they really care too much.

We're VERY fortunate TMO is in a growth mode! It can't last forever, so enjoy it while you can.

Well the good thing is that if they start to get worse, I can just leave and not have to pay anything. Tmobile isn't the cheapest carrier around, so if they become like ATT or verizon, it's as simple as paying the final bill and canceling the service.
thanks guys. gonna keep an eye on it and try some things

When it comes to tethering over the limit, who outdoes TMO? They're the best value (not necessarily cheapest) for speed, customer service, and policies...it may sound cliche, but they ARE shaking things up. More power to'em, I say.

Absolutely. They've been really good so far, I was just saying if they turn into one of those "other" carriers, there's really no reason to stay. Hopefully they keep doing things that other carriers were too scared to do. :good:
Damn they hit me with hotspot upsell page after using 46gb in a week and a half that sucks! Anybody have a solution around besides just adding a user agent switcher?

well i think i got tethering figured out
there are two My Team mobile accounts in the play store
one is a dude holding a phone from Nov 12
the other is a pink key ring... updated yesterday...
i dunno, but i uninstalled the second one since it asks for all kinds of data regarding my phone, i dont want to give them data or facts regarding my device. even after i had the settings not collect it, it knew even the device was rooted.
im keeping the older one, it doesnt collect stuff.. even tho it doesnt show the 100mb tethering i have now

Whoa. Good job.
I've had my moto x pure for a few weeks recently my moto stopped turning on from a faulty charger, Motorola said they would replace the phone with a $250 Charge and a $25 premium fee (I have the $50 insurance plan) so anyways my device is customized Motorola said they would send me a promo code so I can get a new phone in 24-48 hours and they have not its been over 48 hours and nothing. Every time I call moto they want to start the order over and take an hour of my time. Motorola needs to change there ways and take care of there customers.

It might be a PIA to to do it, but there is no way I would keep the phone without an exchange.

Yeah I will go through it eventually. The weird part is it only shows up with certain colors/animations. For example if I put it on a black screen I do not see it, but if I'm watching a video or any type (youtube, nexflix) you will see a large cluster of dead pixel toward the top. Or it shows up during animations but not when it is sitting at specific colors. Very interesting... Oh well. I'll go through the process but I will probably do the method where they ship the phone and do a temp charge until they get the old one. I'll probably wait until after marshmallow so I can get app backups
I just returned my Moto X and the lady took an hour and a half to get me an RMA number and email me a FedEx slip.
It's really sad that Motorola has gone down hill. They wanted $250 to replace my Nexus 6 screen and I laughed and said I'll just buy a new phone and now I'm right back where I left off.

I think their CS is great. My phone broke during delivery, probably ups fault and they replaced it free

they have taken care of me really well when my first phone arrived broken with the screen cracked.
I bet you there is more to the OP's story than he/she is willing to admit
I have nothing but stellar experiences with moto

I'm in the same boat - I put my repair request in on 10/18 and so far every time I call I am told that a shipment will be arriving on Monday, and that the issue will be escalated to the warehouse. I was also told this morning that Motorola is no longer offering codes to order a new phone.

I hope you get the code - it'll give me some hope with my case. I called this morning but was only able to escalate to the 2nd level of support on the repair team (which is where I was told that the codes aren't being offered anymore); sounds like you were able to get farther than I did. I'm going to call again later this morning and try and get to a higher level and see if that makes any difference.
