$25 google play credit :D - T-Mobile HTC One (M7)

well another reason HTC is awesome.
http://us.htc.com/googleplay/
all you do is register your device and they give you $25 google play credit.
however they say it takes 2-4 weeks for them to get you the code to redeem.
i did it last night il get back to you guys when i get my code!
extra info, Yea there is a purchase date restriction apparently :C
"Offer valid only on new HTC One devices purchased and activated in the U.S. between 6/14/13 – 7/30/13"
thats straight from the "fine print" on the htc page for registering.

There's a big thread on this in the intrnl forums and it seems kind of hit or miss, some people who bought within the period never got their code and some people who bought a month before the period did get theirs. So give it a whirl, but don't hold your breath

Registered two phones 3 weeks ago.
Crickets.

I got my phone on June 15th and registered like a week later and got my code 48 hrs later.
If my mind serves right they had time of purchase restrictions.

Thanks to "megabiteg" for informing.
there IS a purchase and register by date restriction il put more detailed info in OP

I signed up a few days ago. Kinda sucks having to wait for them to confirm your handset the way they do... But whatever, I'll be happy as long as I get it.
I am still unsure about the money I'm supposed to get back for sending in an old handset. Do they come as a pre-paid visa from clover wireless?

Yes, it's a $100 prepaid VISA card. From what I've read, they are SUPER behind. You can check your status online using the tracking # they sent you. The rewards issued estimate date they give is over a month behind. People who sent their rebates in early May and were quoted to receive their rebate at early June just got their rebate this week.

Cool thanks I wasnt sure. I've been bombarded with credit card offers lately s_s

I got that email myself today, funny thing is, I cancelled my preorder last week since i was about to hit 30 days to return the giftcard and once the buyback program was off the table I was out of there
I just saw this on androidandme and came here to post it....
I sure hope this is correct. The font difference doesn't bother me...I've worked for companies that have different fonts in the same sentence. Some people don't care, especially on internal docs.
What I wish it didn't say was "release dates subject to change".
I'm still going to keep hoping this phone comes out next week. I've been tempted to dump VZ but honestly, I'm worried the other companies service is going to be sub par.....and the only other phone that interests me is from Samsung....which also makes me not interested. LOL

I ported my number to AT&T to get the Inspire 4G. AT&T is sub par, at least in my area. I have until 3/22 to port back to Verizon so I'm hoping too its 3/17.
So what made you return the Atrix?

Resolution bothered me a lot; everything was super small. Plus, the screen was long and skinny and I wanted something more proportional like the TB or Inspire.
I got an email Best Buy about my preorder today as well. This is the first email from Best Buy since I preordered one month ago, it must be a good sign.

We should find out in the next day or so.
17th looks to be a good possibility. However maybe not. Wait and see. I find it funny to watch all those getting aggravated with the speculation. Get a life, all in fun.

Looks like the 17th it is. Our VZW Business Rep confirmed I'll be able to order with him over the phone. He of course, did say, "unless something crazy happens and they dont let us sell it"
So excited!!!!!!!!!
17th it appears to be.
From my EVO with Cyanogen
Just saw a commercial for the thunderbolt. First ive seen. Signs seem to be pointing at a release fairly soon.
I would put money on the official announcement coming from VZ tomorrow if the 17th is indeed going to be the day. Not a lot of money....gotta buy accessories.

The phone is launching on the 17th, there is no doubt about it. Its official, and an annoucement should be made tomorrow morning.
P.S. Some stores are opening at 7 AM. I would call your local store to double check. If you're in the LA area, pm me and I'll give you the info to the stores that I know of that are opening early Thursday.
God I hope that the 17th actually sticks! I love my Evo but Sprint service sucks at my job and we have a Verizon cell of some kind there with antennas all throughout the building so I'm dying to be able to make the switch now that they'll have an awesome 100% hackable phone!

Looks like wirefly has pre-order up and says they will ship on the 17th and verizon changed its homepage flash to thunderbolt. Looking good for 17th.
Trust me, its launching on the 17th....
Barring something totally catastrophic happening, its going to launch, ready or not....

Exactly...there are also claims of backorders in this thread!
Amazon is showing backorders also. I got mine from Sprint.. but they have yet to call me to make an appointment to pick it up :/
Ya know, I went through Wirefly fully expecting this to happen, but since I got it for $130, while keeping my EVO (giving to the wife), I can wait a few days to save a few $$$.
^^I didn't order mine fast enough, so I paid $180 for the phone and $20 for next day shipping. I might cancel my goddamn order if they don't get their sH#! together.
Sent an email bombarding them with questions; will post response.
It just means they are waiting till the 24th to start shipping. Since the phone does not come out till then. They have no inventory of it to ship.
I just called sprint and they stated that there are plenty of 3VO's at telesales. It may cost you more but you will get it at least.

That's my understanding as well.
I ordered online with Radio Shack, and I have the same screen. I called them up, and they said they are not yet authorized to ship.
I'm in black, rep in red.
I didn't waste any time, i order mine yesterday morning (6/21) from Sprint for $199 and it arrived today.

$130. How?
I'm gonna guess 179.99 and 50 cashback if using BofA add it up. I did the same thing and I had my order since the 6th. I'm sitting here checking my email at least ten times a day waiting for this thing to be shipped already. This can drive a sane man nuts I tell ya!!

Amazon does show it back ordered on the Add To Cart screen, but when you're ready to pay for it the delivery date is June 28th. That's right on spot with their free 2-day shipping.
That's where I ordered mine from this morning.

Most likely bank of america add it up cash back ($50). $180-$50 = 130.
You get $50 in 6-8 weeks if you order it through the add it up website. Wasn't worth the hassle and you can't switch the phone to a different line on your account for the 1st six months or you get charged like $350.

Pre-Order may not ship after the 18th

Just got off the phone with sprint and there now telling me that they had an issue with HTC and the pre-order phones may ship tell the 18th. She said as of right now they did not have any in the warehouse.
Oh no!!!!!!!!!! (panic) why oh why now what will we all do... (speculate) im sure this sprint rep is sitting outside the warehouse counting units..... Troll

nope not troll. The rep i had was a supervisor. i work out of town as a paramedic and i'm gone two weeks at a time. i spent 45min on the phone with them because they were trying to see if they could just ship it to me at work. but when she called the warehouse to find out that when she told me about the issue with HTC.
they aren't gonna release nationally and not ship pre-orders first, i'm not worried... once again the initial shipping date was the 15th before they chamged the words up

well i'm trying to start a fight just posting what they told me.
Sprint didn't just receive all the evos 2 days before they're to ship, cmon, I'm not even saying this dummy on the phone didn't tell you that story. I have never gotten any real info from a sprint rep... They have about as much inside info as me. I know anyone on this forum knows more about these phones than them. They work off of scripts.... She probably just didn't want to help you, what a surprise, I'm sure no ine else has called this week to change an order...... Relax it will be there Wednesday worst case Thursday

i think you forgot to add the *NOT in there, all I'm saying is history shown that sprint reps or almost any other reps are clueless to what really going on, I was just in a sprint chat with a rep 2 days ago and he initially told me that there hasn't been a release date announced for the LTE yet... so I had to link him to the sprint press release, they know nothing most times, we most times know more than them. so i trust that we'll get it before the 18th

I agree^^^^^ Sprint reps know nothing. I always know more about their phones and specs than they do. Its pretty sad but true. So I dont trust what they got say 100% of the time.
I am sure the stores have them on the shelf now they just can't sell them to the 18th.
Locked....no need for this many pre-order threads guys. If you have info post in one of the others...

instore preorder process sucks

I really hate that verizon told me that they were shipping my phone to me via fed ex even though I went into the store to preorder. I now have to wait for fed ex to drop it off so I am on their time until it arrives. why have a store that just makes me order it the same way I can do it myself. I would much rather have the phone in my hands at 8am when they open on wednesday morning not 2pm when the fed ex driver gets done eating lunch.
other things that irritated me about the preorder experience.
1. they dont accept Cash
2. they tried to make me sign the ipad for my receipt... I made them print me one and give me a pen (just to be a prick more than anything)
3. $30 upgrade fee? wtf is that... once I get the phone I'm going to call and get that removed since its a bogus charge for a 13year VZW customer... you dont even need to call and activate anymore all I need to do is swap my sim from my nexus and put it in the DNA so I'll ask them what the $30 covers cause its not VZW store employees who are accepting my order and helping me "activate" or set up my phone which they shipped to my house.
did anyone else preorder instore? or did everyone else order online?
I'm not sure why you would pre-order today as you won't get it for 2 days, if you wanted to pick it up at 8AM in store why didn't you just wait until tomorrow and go in and get it? I never heard of anyone pre-ordering in store.
Also, Verizon has been charging the $30 upgrade fee for a while now, but only if you buy it subsidized.
I preordered last week on Wednesday... I always do it in store cause I always upgrade a different line than my data line... Call me old fashioned but every once in a while I like to interact with other people and not a computer.

sucks. That's why I didn't bother to pre-order. I'm just going to go when they open at 8 tomorrow.
I pre-ordered it last wednesday as well. Still no update. :/
My tracking just updated... I might get it today if it comes before work... No one knows about this phone other than people who follow android so I doubt you will have a problem walking in and getting it.

You don't have to go by FedEx time. Have them hold it at the station so you can go pick it up when they open.

I'm the same way, I always go to the store to order new phones and accessories.
My question though was why you drove to the store to pre-order it when you could have just driven there tomorrow morning instead and know that you can just pick it up then and there.

Possible easy way to get ISIS SIM without having to "convince" anyone

I have seen that a few people have said they managed to call VZW or go to a local VZW store and get an ISIS SIM sent to them even outside of the ISIS test area, but I have read that others were not able to convince them to send one... I was just browsing around in My Verizon on the website and found that I had the ability to request one myself, and it let the order go through even when I told it what phone number to link it to and where to ship it to, both of which are in southwest MO.
It may be possible that they will cancel the order, as I only placed it 5 minutes ago, but it could be worth a shot if you want one but are too lazy to haggle.
This is what I think I did, but I cannot exactly duplicate it so the path may be different - see below the instructions for why.
1. Log into My Verizon
2. Click on "Change Minutes, Text, & Data"
3. Select the device from the tab-style list on the top
4. Click the link that says something like "Get a SIM with an NFC Secure Element" (mine was the last link in the list in the content area of the page)
5. Just place the order and it should complete.
Now the reason I can't duplicate this or go back and check what things actually said is because I chose to do it for my line, and now whenever I try to go back and do the same thing for my wife it says that I must activate my recently ordered SIM before I can make changes, and the shipping I chose was 3 - 5 day shipping, so I will have to wait to get mine before I order one for my wife I guess.
Anyway, YMMV but I figured I would share this.
Yea.. I did same thing last week and got one.. I'm in Richmond, va. Doesn't do much for me since I'm rooted on cm10.1 and can't use Isis anyway, but I had to get a new sim regardless BC I jacked my other one up..
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Cool, glad to hear it worked for you already - I hadn't seen anyone post about it yet. I won't necessarily be able to use it either since I am rooted as well, I just thought I would share the info for those who wanted the SIM, maybe if more people get it someone will find a way to bypass the root check.
Also, I just got my shipment email, so I guess I don't have to worry about the order being cancelled anymore. I must say, that was quick for them to process and ship.

Same, I can't get Wallet to work so I figured I would play around with this in the mean time.
As for shipping, it got here today, so it was still a two day shipping time, but it came by USPS First Class from Fort Worth, TX. Haven't bothered activating it yet as I hardly ever go anywhere that supports NFC payments anyway, probably won't be anywhere like that for at least a month. I only go to Walmart and Sam's for groceries, neither of which have NFC readers, and only use drive through at McDonald's where they actually have a reader inside.

Probably because Verizon watches every move made on xda
I got a sim by walking into the store and asking for one. The girl there was quite helpful and we had a rather good discussion on upcoming possibilities. Not sure why so many are getting screwed. Guess Indiana has some nice folks working in those parts.
If I had to choose between Isis and Google Wallet, I'd go with Google. I like the setup better and it was easier to get working with my rooted phone.
I went into a local corporate store and picked up a se sim. At first they said they didn't know what it even was. Then a guy was like we have these white nfc sims. I was like I bet that is them. They looked it up and it was. They said they turned two other customers away that was asking for them earlier in the day.
