I think Sprint is doing so bad financially that they will probably release this phone to attract new customers or lock the ones that are already with them. It won't surprise me if they try to make people getting this phone to get on the "Simply Everything Plan" for $99.00 like they did with the instinct.
ya right, i wish.....
im staying out of contract with 2 lines so that i can bargain with them when the touch pro comes out
Raphael was supposed to come to Sprint before the Diamond. It may be that the Diamond is coming to AT&T I suppose, but it seems doubtful to be coming to Sprint so soon.

not entirely true, since the CDMA Diamond and CDMA Raphael has already gone through FCC. Its up to Sprint now, who probably wont be making any fast decisions just yet, as there still dealing with a lot of **** lately. As a sprint customer I'm starting to feel worried about there future. >_> i just hope that the Korean merger well be a success. And not some cooperate flip-flop.
P.S- i could careless about the Diamond, i want that Raphael phone now!

Amen!!! I'm waiting for the touch pro myself.. I don't care too much for a phone without the keyboard, and about the internal 4gb I can care less too. I'll buy a bigger sd card if I have too and move my contents around. But we need that phone.. my mogul is good but a touch pro would be better.
I love these threads
Less doubt
Well I guess there is less doubt that it will happen!!! Check this report on Engadget!!

What do you mean "not entirely true"? It is completely true: Raphael was supposed to come to Sprint before the Diamond. You're right, it is up to Sprint; but that has nothing to do with my post. Clearing the FCC doesn't mean the devices are both already ready for launch.

Reports I've seen show that Sprint's version isn't going to have a microSD slot.
Yes, now it does seem they've changed their original release order. The specs are fantastic on the Sprint models; I can't wait for these.
But "Herman", Sprint? HERMAN? Really?

Just as I was getting to like my Mogul after all thone phone swaps. Good thing I timed my activation for my latest swap to co-incide with the Sept 2nd date to make it easier this time. Hope the phone makes that date.
I guess its set for Sept

Sprint Employees should have demo units in stores in the next couple weeks...
(I was told by a close friend who manages that the demos are inbound but sadly enough, he had no info on the Touch Pro )

Probably. But the version that passed the FCC has no US 3G (AT&T or T-Mo) so odds are it will be European, though I don't know why it'd go thru the FCC if it's European. We all know Moto isn't stupid enough to release a version here without 3G
It has to pass through FCC so that it can operate in the US, for people traveling abroad and such, thus making it a "world phone".
I frankly like the way they're going with the commercial..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPYM-XTqcec
It was pretty head on advertising. Now the 'droid name is out there and more people will be asking about it. Should have been the direction T-Mo should have taken in advertising for the G1. I don't anyone is running out trying to get that new phone Whoopi Goldberg has.
I like the phone in theory... but since it's not an HTC, I don't think I could let myself get it. Is there a Motorola version of XDA?
here it is, perfect design and with keybaord

well i had my pixi for 3 weeks and every day i missed android on the vogue. so i exchanged my phone and bought a real hero. i have to say this is by far the BEST phone ive ever owned. fast, stable and super customizable. im just in here thanking all of you for introducing me to android. keep up the good work devs. i will tell you guys this, android runs 10X better on a real android phone, i recommend your next upgrade be a hero or other android based device.
take care guys and ill keep checking in here every so often!

don't know if it'll come to sprint this year or not, I suppose there is a hope if it goes to big red.
I'll probably pick up a hero with a bad esn in the summer after more android phones come out for sprint and it gets cheap, and swap the esn with an old phone I've got and run it on my sero plan. it'll be the trusty old vogue-droid until then.

Also, although I can't make calls with it, I've still got my Vogue. I think I'll try a NAND flash on it just to see how everyone's hard work has been paying off.

it's not their fault that you couldn't wait they sold you a device with 512 mb ROM. They didn't lie or something. it's like i buy an iphone 1g and say after 3 years: "if you don't upgrade this to 3gs, ill sue you."
anyways a lil bit more ram/rom isn't a big deal for me.

If this (RAM/ROM) is the only change (apart from band changes) that's all fine - however I have a sneaky feeling they will also have sorted out the pink camera issue (new lens perhaps) with these later revisions - in which case I will definitely demand an upgrade.
Sooo poor
UK Vodafone HD2 user. We've already been stiffed over the poor quality of the early ROM's with camera quality, stability issues and lets not mention the on going saga that is the stuck sms issue in the outbox which hasnt been rectifyed yet and now this!
We truely have been stiffed on this one which the release of double ROM and upgraded Ram in the US. They should allows us to sub our phones in like Apple and O2 did when they upgraded iPhones from Edge to 3G v.quickly for those on £40 or more contracts could swap their phones for free.
I'm just worried that the US device will be the minimum required for Windows Mobile with the push they are making, leaving Europe and Asia with no official upgrade. If they had to replaced all those outside the US that's a great hassle no company or indeed consumer will wish to endure.
This is bull****, what are HTC playing at? To me this is the equivalent of buying a gamesconsole and then a few months later they release one with more ram so it can play games which the first version cant i.e....windows mobile 7, I bet ours cant and theirs can.

I just wanted to let everyone know in the USA that Sprint is releasing the new HTC Evo which is basically an HTC HD2 with a few upgrades and runs Android instead of Windows Mobile. I personally have the Telstra HD2 running on AT&T and love it and I would have got the T-Mobile version except that the T-Mobile coverage is horrible where I live and in many other parts of the country it is extremely poor as well. The Telstra HD2 also doesnt support some 3G bands that AT&T uses, I was lucky enough to live in an area which it does.
I am only mentioning this because its another option for people here in the USA to get a device like the HD2 with a few upgrades and running Android if thats something you want. I am thinking about switching because I am a tech Junky. I swear I am never satisfied!!!
I think everyone is aware of this

Pretty much this. I have a sprint overdrive (3g/4g) from work and use it when im going off-site and being that I'm in SoCal (pretty big market), I'll be lucky if it even locks on to 4G. It's a good marketing tool, but to ask people to pay an extra $10/mo for 4G when the coverage is minuscule at best..is a bit outlandish. But hey, in a year or so, 4G has to compete with HSPA+ and LTE, so don't lose sleep over data speed if you're one of those people.

Its normal for manufatures to not release 1 version for all bands and stuff... 1 device will be for cdma and other for the rest, i wouldnt waste my time on a place called techno buffalo
This is my last hope of upgrade, if it has an IR Blaster... The S7s do not, and i'm kinda off by the LG G5.
I would love to return to HTC... Those was some of my first smartphones...HTC Titan, HTC Evo.
I really hope they don't shoot themselves... It seems like this would really hurt them if true.

This is what I'm hoping-- or at the very worst, the first round of M10s being GSM only, and then a subsequent CDMA release. Due to how cheap my Unlimited / All plan is, I really won't be leaving Sprint unless they go out of business :good:
I'm pretty positive that, even though Verizon is a pain in the butt to provide for, they are far too large of a player for HTC to ignore. Sprint isn't as much of a concern, but they still represent a significant number of possible sales.

No, what is bogus, is that these companies even release multiple versions in the first place. This whole fragmented hardware thing is a bit on the retarded end of the common sense spectrum. Lets hope that HTC has the common sense to just build one device that will just work on all networks. If Motorola can make the Pure X edition that works on all. Then surly HTC can as well. Again, fragmentation is crap. And is leads to far more tech wast. Also, it makes manufacturing far more expensive. I am goingbtobhave to say that if it is the case that Verizon and Sprint wanted to play the you need to pay us to allow your devices on our network games. Then HTC probably said screw them. I would not blame them either. I am on the Verizon network. And quite frankly, I would love to see them just fail hard and big. Not that they will. As they are protected by government. But, it would be cool to see it happen. They price gouge, take advantage of data rates and abuse manufacturers.

Lets hope that HTC has the common sense to just build one device that will just work on all networks. If Motorola can make the Pure X edition that works on all. Then surly HTC can as well. Again, fragmentation is crap. And is leads to far more tech wast.

This is what I'm hoping-- or at the very worst, the first round of M10s being GSM only, and then a subsequent CDMA release. Due to how cheap my Unlimited / All plan is, I really won't be leaving Sprint unless they go out of business :good:
I'm pretty positive that, even though Verizon is a pain in the butt to provide for, they are far too large of a player for HTC to ignore. Sprint isn't as much of a concern, but they still represent a significant number of possible sales.

Expect it on Verizon the moment it is available.
Verizon is carrying this device. I just spoke with my VZW Enterprise rep, and while he couldn't give a launch date (because HTC hasn't dropped that yet), the HTC 10 is showing in their upcoming devices matrix as the replacement for the M9. My rep has never led me astray about any devices that I've asked about. He said after HTC's announcement tomorrow you will see it available for preorder.

Im not sure what I am going to be disappointed about. As I expect this to happen. At least regarding HTC and some other well known manufacturers.
But, yes, it does happen. We have the Motorola X Pure. And it works on every carrier here in the US.

VZW is definitely gonna have the HTC 10.
We, known as S.Team, got a leaked VZW HTC 10 system dump

And it looks like HTC did indeed take that route. Nice.
