Probably because you have been asked for proof and provided none. You also have been cross posting the same thing in multiple different forums on xda.

I just called three Sprint stores and they are def not taking pre orders yet. So how in the world did you pre order yours. And where did you find out about Sprint taking them because nowhere have I been able to find anything. Can you post a source or are you full of ****??? Not hating just asking
yeah I just got the same answer. No pre orders No how. in fact I was informed "if you really want to pre order today go to BB or RS they aren't taking pre orders."
I think this is Bill Sh!t as I talked to a sprint rep and he said sprint has not done preorders in about 8 years. Lets see a copy of your so called receipt that says nothing.
Looks like it has too be online. Too be honest it sounds stupid . But you can do it online by chatting with a rep

Well I went to my local Sprint store today and asked the employee there about pre-ordering the Evo 3d, he said they weren't taking pre-orders and he hasn't heard anything about when they will take pre-orders. Cool
Yeah until an official email goes out I think it's just a hit or miss between stores. I'm getting worried though. June 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 8th (some speculation dates I've heard) are all right around the corner and still no word!
I want to know why they wont give a dang price. I dont wanna pre order something when I dont know how much its gonna cost.

Id say a safe estimate is no more than $300 with full upgrade eligibility. Is that too much? Also, preordering does not lock you into the purchase so who cares?

Some stores might not be doing it yet but the store in Lafayette, Louisiana is. I just pre ordered 2. 1 for me 1 for wifey. Paid 100 bucks and got back a yellow sprint card.
The manager said I was the first guy to come in and ask about them. He seemed to know exactly what was going on and processed my payment really fast.

I think what is likely the case is what was mentioned in another thread - corporate stores seem to know the situation while the non corp stores do not. Might not be an airtight assumption but seems to have some clout to it.

you think it'd really be necessary for a pre order? Unless you are really into cell phones and tech, most people don't even know this phone exists. I can't see them being endangered of selling out or anything opening weekend. I could be wrong.
The evo4g was on backorder for weeks after it was released in my area, heck even my touch pro was oos for a week+ on release. Those purchases were done through a corporate sprint store so im sure they were available at other places but people who want to go through sprint will probably need a preorder if they want it soon.

Last year there were about 15 people waiting outside of radio shack at 545 who didn't pre order the evo. RS only had about 5 that weren't spoken for by pre orders. If you want to be safe and get one on day 1, I strongly recommend you pre order.

When i pre ordered the guy had to read me a list of things and we basically had a convo about it . He says for the evo there was like 30 people at 7 am. So if the store theoretically got 100 phones alltogether....and 90 ppl pre ordered and 5 came into get it and i didnt get out of work till 4 pm to come get mine id be **** out of luck and have to wait a couple more weeks. He says chances are slim but it could happen. I pretty much stated the same thing you said to him but he seems to think it will be popular to non-techy people too right off the bat.

Just as the question states, I was going to go to the Sprint store on my way to work this evening and buy a Evo 3D. However the Sprint account is in my wife's name. I have been able to go up to the same store and upgrade her line for her, get our phones repaired etc. But this will be my first time charging a phone to it.
But my question is, since the account is in my wife's name. Does she has to be present in order for me to bill the account?
The store is an hour drive away for us. But it's near where I work. That's why I wanted to do it then.

If you have the password and pin # to the account you should be all set at any Sprint store. A phone call would be my first choice,to the closest Sprint store.
That's what I was told. As long as you have the pin you should be good. Like Wiley said tho, a phone call wouldn't hurt

You shouldn't have a problem. Our phones are in my wife's name because she works for a company that gives us a 23% discount on our bill. Yet I was able to upgrade our phones, swap our numbers around, change phones, etc.
I never needed a bill or anything. Just my name and our account pin number/password.
I called them and asked and they said my wife has to be present. I think they will let me get it though. They know me on a first name basis. I think when I called them though, they had no clue who it was or whatever. But I'll just stop by and see. If they say I need her, then we'll just order online.

As soon as i walked in there they all greeted me. I had a felling though if i go up there and they see my face , theyll recognize me and sell it to me.

Check this out, live in a city called Oxnard in California. I've been calling stores looking for the phone. Today a best buy in another city, Thousand Oaks, said they had 2, which was perfect, since me and my dad both are making the upgrade. We drove an hour and a half away through memorial day traffic to go get them. (We both thought it was too good to be true.) Well we finally made it there safely, with both our moods great, especially since we've been waiting for this phone like crazy. We walk into the store (Best Buy Mobile) and are ready to make our purchases.
Guess what... The fukkface was confused with the O.G. model. They at minimum could have gave me a $10 BB Card, but no, they were instantly rude. This could have easily ruined my day. (which I think it did, but I'm in denial of being angry. LOL)
To answer your question, I do not know exactly, but I believe they are still periodically being checked by customs, but not held like crazy like they were before. My local Sprint store told me my pre order would be in by Wednesday.

My wife and I went into the ATT store in our neighborhood Saturday for her to pick between a SGS4 and a One, and see if we could get her an early upgrade. She's not due for an early upgrade until July and her Samsung Infuse is not performing well anymore and we wanted to take advantage of their trade-in offer. After waiting for about half an hour and haggling with a sales associate and the manager, the were not convinced and we left empty handed. A co-worker put me up to calling customer service and after explaining the situation and our in-store experience and a brief hold, the rep came back with some awesome news! She was approved to not only let my wife have the early upgrade, but a FREE upgrade to the black 64GB! And just to sweeten the deal, she threw in free overnight shipping!!! We're expecting it to arrive tomorrow. I think i'll keep the black one and let her have my silver 64GB.
All of those TMOUS and VZ subscribers who say ATT has terrible customer service have no idea. I have been with ATT since 2006 and have never needed to call customer service. This is not bad for a first experience!
West exactly did you tell the rep?

I simple told the Rep that I need my upgrade 2 months early because my current phone wasn't working for me anymore. she understood my problem and said retention department could help me. Five mins later she came back and said since I was nice and in good standing that she could approve my upgrade and wave my upgrade fee. I need a larger screen due to losing most of my eye sight in an accident she said the only draw back was I'd have to pay for whatever phone I wanted right then . So I told thanks and then spoke with her supervisor letting him know how great she was. Being very decent is the key even if you need to speak to a supervisor ask nicely and erasure the Rep that you understand that she help as much as they could. So I paid for my phone and they shipped it out ocernight. Be patient be pleasant they get ****tiy people calling all the time so it helps to be nice.

Co-worker got a similar deal. His problem was that the online system would cancel his order immediately after completing it. It happened twice. He called not to complain, but simply to order the phone and got it free with free overnight shipping. His account was eligible for an upgrade, though.
The store manager has the power to give u an early upgrade within 30 days of the eligible date. Its funny BC some managers will say well it has to be in the same calendar month or ah it's gotta be within 14 days. U got lucky!

Hello,
I've had the MOST DIFFICULT time locating this phone. No one has them except Corporate Sprint (and Verizon) stores, at least in my area. It seems that Best Buy decided this is a phone they will NOT stock in stores...ever. I have called and visited over 5 Best Buy or Best Buy Mobile stores. None of them have it, and none were able to order it. I ordered it from BestBuy.com on release day, with a promised delivery by Monday, November 18. Well, I got an e-mail basically saying it was out of stock, and they expect to receive and ship orders within 30 days. I called Best Buy Mobile and spoke with a representative, who transferred me to a manger to find out more. The manager then called HTC for availability information, but HTC said "You need to call Best Buy." So then I called HTC and spoke with a representative, who transferred me to a manger. They called Best Buy to find out more information, and Best Buy said "You need to call HTC." PATHETIC. Between the two companies, SOMEBODY has to know when these phones will be in stock. And if they knew they didn't have any to begin with, they should have listed "backordered" on the website, and not "Add to cart."
Then today I called Wirefly.com and placed an order with them, and after giving all my information and going through all the steps with the representative, it turns out they, too are out of stock!! I opted for expedited shipping, in hopes to get it before Thanksgiving. But Wirefly.com says they "expect" to have more info on availability within 72 hours, but I don't trust them at all.
What is going on!? Is it just me, or is this the worst HTC product lunch ever!? I've heard (rumor) that they are trying to pull a card from Apple's deck, and create a false sense of demand. I'm a fan, and I've upgraded to a new HTC phone every year for the past 7 years, but I'm no idiot. I know HTC has neither the popularity nor the market share of Apple or Samsung. Not even close. So why is this phone so hard to acquire? For now, I'm going to leave both my BestBuy.com and Wirefly.com orders pending until one of them ships and they confirm it by sending a tracking number, then I'll cancel the other.
Side Note: For those wondering "Why don't you just buy it from the Sprint store?" I want to buy it from Best Buy because they have it for $250, plus they will give me a $50 gift card for upgrading through them, so that results in $200. Also, I like the advantages of the My BestBuy program. Wirefly had them for $200, which I would have been okay with getting it there. Sprint is asking $250, and they seem unwilling to match any of the others' offers. I'm going to try a different Sprint store tomorrow, where I know one of the managers. Maybe he will be willing to match Wirefly.com's offer. I'm tempted to order from Amazon.com, but I fear I will get the same "backorder" nightmare.
Any help is appreciated...

If You like custom roms and mods no If You dont yes
Where? Sprint Store
When? The Saturday (1 or 2 days after it was released?)
How? I asked to be notified by email of when it was coming by way of the HTC One Max coming soon landing page for Sprint. They did, and the page asked if I wanted to check my upgrade eligibility, so I did, and qualified for the One Up promotion, but it involved setting up an appointment to go into a authorized store. This was on a Friday. I made the appointment for Saturday, and waited all of about 7 minutes and they started the ball rolling.
