From my Gingerbread Hero.
BB is now my first stop when I get off work.
Still trying to decide between this and NS4G....
It sounds stupid but software wise the nexus will be dominant but Evo's Hardware kills.....
So im not pre ordering till i find out everything is unlocked and isn't encrypted like the boot loader

E3D Is where its at
Finally realized that.
That's what XDA is for right? I think a few devs are moving from Evo to Evo 3D, so there will probably be quite a few stable roms after the release.
As far as a bootloader, maybe someone will crack it? I only hope HTC and Sprint aren't going down that road.
I'm wondering what they are going to want you to put down on it.
Just preodered mine 50 bucks

Is there any advantages of pre ordering or buying from Best Buy instead of Sprint? Thanks in advance.
Just did my preorder. Advantage from best buy is I don't have to send in the rebate. It's instantly taken off when you buy it

Probably being able to preorder from BB would be the biggest advantage.

I've got $10 gift card to use towards something there! How much is the phone when you pre-order? $200 with 2yr contract?
Sprint is also doing the instant rebate until June 4th, and i think the E3 is comming out on the same day? I guess my safe bet is just to go with Best Buy.

Does BB charge phone to your sprint account, or cash up front?
edit...sprint allows me to charge phones to my bill

Really??? I only thought that T-Mobile was the only one that did that (at least in Puerto Rico, T-Mobile lets you get any phone and split the total cost in 4 payments that get added to your next 4 billing statements). If Sprint does this, then this is a no-brainer.
Pre Ordered Last Night
Pre ordered my EVO 3D last night from the Best Buy on 23rd and 6th ave in NYC.
The store on 62nd and Broadway hadn't heard about it and were a bit ignorant (told me TMO Nexus S works on any carrier, including Sprint and Verizon. Argued it had GSM and CDMA radio in it...)
The pre order cost me $50, which they put onto a gift card and had me fill out a small paper with name and phone number which they entered into their system.
Also, they didn't check my current sprint account.
Hope that helps anybody curious about the process. Very quick and simple when the store is aware of the EVO 3D pre order!

Nope...not 1 user is going to pre-order.
If it were me honestly I would upgrade to an iPhone 4S and sell it for $500+ unopened and keep my Rezound.
I will if they let me pre order 7 months earlier than my scheduled upgrade date, haha

why would it sell for 700 when you can just buy it without contract for 599. But Im thinking about buying one, seems like all the rezound devs are leaving, and I get bored with nothing to flash lol.

You realize the full cost of the phone without subsidy is less than $700 right? You won't get more than $500-$550 for an unopened iPhone or GS3.
Who cares, this is not the GS3 forum...
Hi guys,
Sorry for oot (rather than i make a new thread),but i really need your input about rezound.
I'm planning to have one,but i have a little doubt on it.
I know that rezound has a high clock cpu but it is a bit outdated than S4 or omap 4460,will this perform well until years ahead?
I read somewhere in this forum that developers are leaving,is that true? (i'm a flashaholic)
Since cdma operator is cheaper than gsm,and i have not much option to choose a good cdma/global phone in here,so what do you guys thinking?
Really appreciate for your input.
Thanks

There are Sense 3.6 roms/ Sense 4.0 roms, a MIUI rom, and ROMs that attempt to de-sense as best they can and use Apex for an AOSP feel.
While it is true that we don't have many devs left, HTC should release the ICS kernel source and rumor has it that AOSP/AOKP/CM9 could get RIL working with the kernel source. I shouldn't get your hopes up too much for that happening though because the one person who said he would do that got mad and left. Whether he decides to release it is up to him.
I preordered it. I got my rezoned on my sisters line because she didn't order a phone for 2 years (serious). My line has been free since March. I'll keep which ever one I like more but if the GS3 battery is way better that will be enough.
I may. So much infighting, off topic, and red hot developer on developer action here, with few updates on the few remaining roms.
Then there's all the developers being pushed away by the negativity too.
I'm not saying it won't be any different on the other phones, but it should have a really big following.
I was hoping for CM9 months ago, to finally get all of my devices on one ROM, but that looks like it won't happen anytime soon.
I can afford it these days.
Love my Rezound though.

Yea not to mention our cdma phones' gsm international counterparts always sell for higher since there is a greater, international demand for them and they are not locked to the united states only for the most part. Anyone thinking they'll get more than $500 for this phone is dreaming. I don't care if its mint or unopened, I'd still rather get it from my initial order than second hand if I'm going to spend that money.

The S3 is massively inferior to the S4. How much it matters though, I dunno. The Rezound unfortunately is old news, and devving is petering out.
I ordered a GS3. Wanna use my upgrade before the 28th.
Already pre ordered. The rezound has been great but the S3 is so powerful... I can't wait to see what the developers can do!!

Forgot to add I'm buying it at subsidized price so I'll make around 500$ profit. Also I was gonna get the 32GB one so I rounded up. So if you wanna get technical $649.99--semantics my friend. Hopefully the phone gets sold out and brings up the price of the phone, too. Bet you anything that'll happen.
I may preorder as well haven't decided yet but probably just to use last upgrade before unlimited data ends and trade sgiii for something else down road

I might pre-order one, then sell it.
I'm pretty excited that HTC is offering the unlocked, bootloader unlocked developer version from their website. I think this is a great deal for their phone support.
Also, you can get a free flip case and free shipping from HTC for their early bird pre-order special.
I just ordered a silver 64GB one for $649. Can't wait to get my hands on my phone!

I seriously thought about it, but with my job I work outdoors and I need to have insurance on my phone. That, and if something goes wrong I can take it into the nearest AT&T store and get it replaced instead of having to send it back to HTC and wait for a return.
When will we see that to other producers?
I would love to, but I just bought a house and find it hard to justify spending $650 on a phone, even this phone.

If you mean fully compatible with Sprint or T-Mobile radio bands, it probably depends on how much interest is shown. You might want to write to HTC and ask them to show there's a market.

If you were an early-bird and signed up for updates on the HTC One, they sent you an e-mail with a code for free regular shipping and a free case (the Double Dip Hard Case or the Flip Case).

From the looks of it, you are from California. Maybe I missed it somewhere while I was ordering, but from the looks of it while I was completing my order it didn't say ANYWHERE that people in California had to pay taxes. I canceled my ATT order to get the unlocked version since I was under the impression that there were no taxes on the unlocked version (about $45), then once I had already completed my order I was charged taxes. I thought that was absurd since nowhere before my order was complete did they add taxes to my order. Did this happen to you as well?
So I want to sell my phone and was wondering if anyone has any experience with swappa ?
Also it's only a month old and carrier unlocked do you think 590 is too much ?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Sold my unlocked TMo on eBay for $609 last month. Was used.
Missed it and bought another one locally for $450. Paid $10 to unlock.
Toss it up, take lots of photos, be honest about it's condition. See what happens. If it doesn't move, lower the price every 2 days.

Absolutely to much as sick as it seems , these phones have always been 580 new outright and now the s4 is also 580 new .
Just like with cars trucks anything once u buy it use it walk away with it the value is cut drastically.
They go for 425-480 roughly used now regardless if it's a day old or a month .
Think of it like this the price your asking is same as what anyone can buy it new at the store .
I've bought two ones ans one s4 paid well under retail, people will just look right past your price .
Good luck.

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.
