..but, am uncertain about the "validity" of this online shop.
Anyone have experience with this merchent?

there is no 16 giga version for the omnia7
Thats wrong. There is such a version - for example in Germany.
If this site got the 16GB Version is a different matter tough.
These shops have the 16GB Versions http://geizhals.at/eu/a582829.html
watch out for the German T-Mobile Branded Omnia 7. It's not released right now, we have to wait 2-3 weeks.
Not 2-3 weeks. I just got an email that the place where I bought it will send it to me on Friday.
Most sites on the Internet says 16th or 18th though.
Where did you buy it, the most shops i asked about the 16GB version said 2-3 weeks.
I bought it with a contract on an ebay store.
I guess thats not what you are looking for.
But on amazon.de there are for example a few shops with a delivery on 18th.
If you search on google you will see the other stores with 16th (I have doubts that they really get it delivered by then, but thats what they say)
Anyone found one outside of Germany? Also, are the German ones unlocked and usable abroad?
Starting to get tired of waiting for the Dell Venue Pro.
A t-mobile phone is a t-mobile phone as far as i know. You can buy it from the link i posted earlier this morning sim free from deutsche telekom *aka t-mobile*
***posted this earlier****
It's with deutsche telekom you can get the 16gb version.
Found the link.

ohne vertrag - without contract = 609.95€
"Someone Phone them this morning on 0800 33 55222 *german phone code 49* and see where they'll send it, i'm guessing anywhere if you pay for it"
T-Mobile US and UK are not compatible so I need to be sure there's no issue between Germany and UK as that would be a waste of my money .

I travel europe and get no issues apart from roaming charges , i am in live chat with them now, it's worth a laugh later, my bad german 5 min, then he asks "do i speak english...fu**ing classic*
What I meant was... If it's locked to T-Mobile DE, would it be ok with T-Mobile UK.
On a side note I wasn't expecting such a high price, maybe 100€ less...

Yeah maybe compared to the 8GB but the PAYG HD7 is only £380 and also 16GB, even if you pay to unlock it you won't go above £400 .
I might have to wait for the Dell Venue Pro afterall and upgrade the SD card.

But ya don't get the fastest, brightest unit atm lol, it's personal taste, i love HTC, i have shares in them lol the better they do, the richer i get
I've had a HTC from the MDA pro, TyTnII, Touch Pro 2, HD2, and now the Samsung, Why... put two next to each other When HTC front the cash and jump Samsung again with a new model back i go
I've got the German Omnia and it is definitely not locked to T-Mobile, because otherwise I wouldn't be able to use it with o2
The phone has no hardware branding but software branding with some uninstallable software and a customized search within IE (instead of Bing you get a Google based Telekom search). The biggest problem so far is that the MMS settings are locked to T-Mobile and are not customizable, so I can't sent or receive MMS (for me, it's no big deal, but for some it is...).
Furthermore, you can get the phone from other stores as well: Geizhals (local price search) has an overview of several shops that have the phone and are also cheaper than T-Mobile. The shop with the lowest price (handyattacke.de) also mentions that it might be possible to ship to other countries, but you have to ask them ("Lieferung in weitere Länder auf Anfrage."). Might be worth a try

LOL! Thats pretty funny... No offense, but let me guess, your german was coming from google translate or something like that? At least you´ve tried it!
Was today in a T-Mobile Shop in Germany and was asking the guy there about the Omnia 7. He confirmed me that all the T-Mobile branded Omnia 7 which are sold in Germany have 16GB memory and are not locked... That means you just have to find a Online Shop in Germany who send it to Europe to get a 16GB one. The only things you have to accept are the mms problem, startscreen from T-mobile for 2 seconds and the T-mobile Search. But Im sure with the time somebody here solve that problems...
Hi! Now in the end of june, im going to UK from Sweden . Because it would be VERY expensive to call and text in UK and out from UK with my Swedish carrier, i would like to buy a "prepaid card", dunno if its called that but its basicly a simcard that you put money on and then call for. So my question to all the UK guys, what is the easyest/cheapest english carrier that have prepaid cards (microsim)?
Im out, peace!
Buy at airport.. In Britain, it's called pay as you go.
Sent from my XT910
Yes is called pay as you go.
think tmobile is cheapest one
When I was studying there
10 years ago, yeah, t mobile is the cheapest.. Then came 3.. Not bad as well..
Sent from my XT910
If you have a postal address you can use here in the UK, giffgaff is without a doubt the cheapest network. Check my sig
Hi, PAYG is brilliantly cheap in the UK
I would suggest giffgaff. I am on them and they are mega-cheap - brilliant for androids!
Also, I can send you a sim straight to your home now, so it is ready to go for when you arrive. You just need a UK address If you order through me, you get £5 free credit

Atrix will work anywhere
You need to check if the one you're looking to buy is already able to use any carriers SIm... if it isn't then there are people on ebay who will be able to unlock it for you and it should only cost you a few pounds.
heys guys.
I'll be visiting USA when Nexus 4 will be launched.
Is it possible for an international buyer to purchase one?
Google play accepts international credit cards or USA only?
I could ship it to my hotel.
Or are there any other ways to buy it? will it be available on Retail stores?
Thank you!

According to support.google.com (can't post URL, sorry), "the country of your credit card must match the country to which you're shipping."

bad news for me
Anyone knows if there is a way to get a prepaid visa card or something like that?
I've heard about it once but no idea how it works or if it would be able to purchase on play store.
Any american know how that works?
Give me your cash. I'll use that to buy it for you.

You can try www.entropay.com
that's how I buy movies, books and musics from google play and I'm in Brazil...
I would expect that the Nexus 4 will be available in retail stores, not just the Play Store. That's how it is in Australia at least and I believe many Asian/European countries. Not entirely sure about the US but I'd guess it's the same.
I live in Mexico and I bought the nexus one after a few months it came out, I went to the page they used to have, before google play, and using a vpn bought it using a mexican visa credit card, but it was shipped to my aunt's house in USA and I went for it. If they don't release the N4 in Mexico before the christmas I gonna do the same
I cant post links yet, but on ebay if you type N9005 64GB there is only one guy selling this.
Does this seem legit? You have to buy 2 for $1400, anyone want to go halves with me?
Is this going to have that UK sim restricted sticker on it? Will I be able to use the LTE on this phone on the Rogers network in Canada?
Any experts out there that can help me out with all of these things Im clueless on? Im used to just buying an unlocked phone and having it work off the bat. Never bought something from another country like this before.

I exchanged several emails with that guy and he doesnt wont to do PayPal - bank to bank only transfer. Sounds like a scam to me, and if you zoom in on the pictures of the boxes he posts - the white sticker says "32GB". I've already explained to you in another thread UK phones wont work on Rogers' LTE, unless you flash Rogers' modem to it.
Last year I saw where some purchased a '64GB' phone and it was actually a 32gb phone with a 32gb SD card... That was scandalous..
