Hiya,
I saw a few posts here and there about people who are uncertain as to whether there's any removable storage included with the X1.
I purchased an O2 X1 last week, and it came with a 4GB micro-SD. The card was already inserted into the device.
I hope this clears things up for anyone thinking about makaing a purchase on O2.
Oms.
and which country are u talking about? or is o2 germany only?
It depends. I got my X1 ON O2 but I didn't get it FROM O2, which is presumably why mine did not come with the memory card.
My X1 is retail rather than O2 branded. Not to mention if I were relying on O2 I probably would have never gotten the X1, I don't think they were even available directly when I ordered mine.
Its hardly a big deal though, microSD are pretty cheap and I am glad I got 8GB. Having a spare 4GB would have been useful but its no deal breaker. I am glad I got a retail X1 as I have no immediate plans to mess around flashing custom ROM images to it.
iv done some benchmarking of the 2,4 and 16gb cards if your interested on the Turbo X1 thread, i did not have an 8gb to test, maybe you would like to fill in some gaps and post some results for us. If its as fast as the 4gb, I will get one, but if its got the same speed as the 16gb card, then I will stick with that.
Good point - My bad.
My device was purchased from an O2 store, in the UK. It was therefore a 'branded' silver X1.
I had the option to 'upgrade' my handset at various retailers, however I found the best deals to be at the official O2 stores/telesales depts.
I almost upgraded to a black X1 at the carphone warehouse: BUT although the £45 tariff appeared to be identical, it didn't include unlimited web bolt-on that I would have got if I purchased direct from O2.
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Oms.

Indeed. Got mine at a random electronics chain in Italy, unbranded. Came with a 2gb card. Although 16gig cards aren't all that pricey nowadays if you look in the right place.

Just phoned to upgrade my Buisness Orange SIm and was told that as I do not have 50+ mobiles registered with Orange, I cannot get a SPV M1000!
Anyone know where I can get one from?
Ashby
well here orange sell them all over often bundled with tomtom navigate
not sure if they ship to uk though
Does anyone know if this is true? Can you only purchase a SPVM 1000 if you are using 50 or more hand sets? Also, does anyone know how much Orange is charging for the handset when you sign up with service?
Thanks fo the help in sorting this out.

Try www.ebay.co.uk if there is one available it will be on there, just be sure if buying that you can collect the goods or ascertain the sellers credentials, there have been many instances of hijacked accounts on ebay recently, the feedback looks great, but you arent dealing with the owner of the account, the scammers tend to ask for money transfer via western union.
i doubt that it's true since many big eletronic stores here sell it bundled with tomtom gps
and they give the unit price on their site along with their other SPV
http://orange.dk/privat/telefoner/orange/
of cause i dont know if they ship to other countries
Orange M1000 - more details
I am new here - my first day of posting here ever.
Here is what i have been able to find out about this phone (M1000) from Orange
This is being marketed in 3 countries, - in Denmark to Business & Residential customers, and in UK and France to business customers only. Not just any business customers, many people have posted here and on modaco forums that you have to have 50 lines for your business. This is what i found when i called orange uk, they wouldn't even talk to me till i told them i have over 50 employees (as if). One person said he was told he needed 500 employees, but this seems to be an exception.
As stated by others, this is a lunatic decision for Orange to have taken.
I have searched the internet for buying these.
This was selling, apparently briefly, on Expansys (UK online electronics) but they have sold all they had and are not expecting any more at the moment, as far as i know ( i phoned them about it). I believe it was selling for over £500
There is one Danish site which is offering this on a Denmark Orange Tariff, but I am sure that you would need to give them a Danish address to be able to buy this from Orange Denmark, - i could be wrong. According to current exchange rates, the amount they were asking for was over £400, and that was on a Danish Orange Tariff of at least £30 a month. Not much use to a UK person, unfortunately.
I will be getting a few of these models (unwanted upgrades by some friends who are in a big enough company, but don't particularly like PDA 's as phones) over the next few days, i will beposting one on ebay today or tomorrow, which i will start the bidding at £400 ish.
If anyone wants to approach me outside Ebay, and you live in the London area, contact me please.
Good luck with this, and there is a good review of this, including pictures and videos taken with it, on this URL
http://www.msmobilenews.com/mobile/?cid=454
All the best, and what a gr8 site. I intend to unlock the phones before selling, have any of you used the fantastic tool for unlocking on the Orange spv m-1000 specifically?
Cheers
Ammateur
In France the device is sold on Orange shops about 450 Euro with a contract or 730 euro without
but SPV1000 is only 32MB Ram + 32 MB Rom where XDA2 (O2 or other) are 64 Mo RAM and 64 MO Rom so be carefull read the specs
RAM on M1000
Sorry, if you check out the review link i provided above, from Brody, the founder of his website, who tested one of these and provides much pictures and information, he says the UK version had 128 total, not 64
Its a perfect phone
I recently got hold of a SPV m1000 for DKK 3.600 excl. VAT andwith a contract. I love the design and smallness of the phone but if Orange really won't offer it to ordinary people in your countries then go with another brand. I heard rumours about m1000 lacking memory compared to the other brands, but mine is as good as the O2 (128 MB) and I don't belive they design it in other ways for other countries, especially considering the tininess of Denmark.
Cheers
Johan
also since they are all Himalaya devices then starting to change the inner hardware would inc the price even more then removing the mem would dec the price it just would not be a profitsome thing for orange to do
Individuals can now get the m1000 on contract in the UK, see here.
Hi!,
Can someone tell the best website to buy a Sd card ?
Should be 512 mb or greater, and have a good response in velocity
It's to be used in a Qtek S100/Magitian
Im' from Portugal, so shipment costs are relevant
Thanks in advance
Best Regards,
Miguel Cunha
You can have a look at this site:
http://www.tweakers.net/pricewatch/cat/48/top
It is a dutch pricewatch with many dutch shops, but also many internet shops.
I bought my high-speed 1GB SD card from Amazon.co.uk and it cost £63, which is equivalent to about €90. The brand is Bytestor and it works perfectly so far.
On Ebay...Guy in new york sells 1gig sd for about £38 and £9ish to ship.
Takes 3 - 5 days and fully guaranteed
bakerk ...
How much in USD or EUR ? I'm from Portugal, so.. maybe that person doesn't ship to portugal ... i have to look better in ebay...
Thanks
I'd recommend that you are very careful about buying on eBay...
I bought my first 1GB SD card from a person on eBay. The card he sent from the US was NOT the same as the card he was advertising on eBay. He claims it was the same but the speed rating was different. Customer service was non-existant and he didn't care that he sent me a different card brand. His card took 4 weeks to arrive.
This is why my second purchase was from Amazon. It was slightly more expensive but it was much quicker and I knew it was going to be correct.
Maybe I was unlucky with eBay but the very cheapest isn't always the best. :?
Good luck
Where to Get 1 GB SD Cards for Cheap...
check:
:idea: www.ecost.com :idea:
:idea: www.tigerdirect.com :idea:

They also had a few for $6x.xx and $7x.xx, so check it out.
Plus they all come with warranties and from a company you can trust...!
They also have a 2 GB SD Card for abou $175.00, for those that always want more!!!
Hope that helps ya all out... 8)

This is NOT the guy I had problems with. (My guy was called Sarafatl.)
However, the guy I used had a feedback rating of 99.7% from over 100,000 trades. I thought I'd be safe. Two weeks after I received my card he disappeared from eBay. User account closed.
Compared with trading with someone like Amazon, who have a reputation to protect, eBay may be slightly cheaper but not cheap enough to compensate for the worry of using someone completely unknown, IMHO.
I ordered from sarafatl because he was selling the specific brand of card that someone in these forums had recommended (Kingmax) but that wasn't the brand of card I received. He said he'd run out of stock. I have no idea whether the card he sent was as good as the (recommended) Kingmax.
Bought mine off ebay. Lexar 1 GB, paid $65 including shipping to Norway from the US.
Always had good experience shopping off ebay, as long as you stick to the power sellers you should be ok...

The reviews posted over the weekend indicate there is an 8 GB SD card included in the box.
Is that a vendor deal or is it supplied by HTC?
Reason I ask is I have ordered an SD card with the phone which I won't need if it comes with one already. I phoned Expansys sales and they don't think it comes with an SD card.
Any definitive advice would be most welcome ...otherwise I just have to wait and see!
Thanks
Mal
I also want to know this, please post where did you guys bought it and if it had the sdcard on package, inside or outside...
In dutch (UK version of Thouch HD), this information wasn't there yet yesterday when i looked at this website (http://www.pdashop.nl/product/59806/htc-touch-hd-uk.html)

8 GB memorycard
I spoke with the Expansys sales rep here in CHina and he seemed to think that the one which ships to Hong Kong (and therefore the one that makes into the mainland) would most likely have a 1gb card, however the website clearly states there will be an 8gb card. Not sure if this is standard for the region or if the local guy is just taking it before he ships them out. THis is common practice here in CHina to buy something new and find that the distributor opened it up and swapped out the memory cards, batteries, charger, etc. with much crummier OEM stuff and then re-shrinkwrapped it. I've e-mailed Expansys UK and expansys HK to ask and will let you know if I get any concrete confirmations.....
Scandisk 8GB microSDHC in box
Hi!
HTC ships the HD with a Scandisk 8GB microSDHC memory card in the box for the hungarian distributor. Since Hungary is in EU I assume it will be the same for other EU countries as well.
But to be completly sure ask the distributor in your country!
Brgds,
imee.h
France
In France too, it will ship with 8Go Micro SD card
I am about to order this http://www.expansys.com.gr/p.aspx?i=175641
Is the Greek version of expansys my question is, if there is already an 8GB microsd in the box, why this value pack contains 8gb "expansys" microsd (appart from the case and the car charger)?
Does that mean that I will receive the touch hd with 8gb sandisk in the box, PLUS the extra 8gb "expansys" card?
In México is also included the 8gb card
But it´s soo expensive here.... $1,200USD!!!
Sounds like expansys is trying to make money out of you guys.
HTC will include ScanDisk 8g SDHC in the package all over the world...same goes for battery,headset,etc...standard pack.
If you buy it trough an operator the pack might be different,but never less then original HTC package...unless of course you live in a third world country(like somalia,Ruanda,Ghana,etc...) where you go to customer services complain and they beat you with a baseball bat and steal your HTC HD

Hello,
Please where did you get this news.

mobiles.co.uk do not list it as included
Right here, http://www.expansys.com/ft.aspx?k=115444 , a guy from expansys confirms that the 8gb card is included!!!
Nevertheless, if someone receive his HD from expansys please confirm if the card is inside...
I`m Romanian and we have a real problem concerning what you really get in your box. My HD should arrive in a couple of days and I don`t think I`ll get the 8GB MicroSD as the dealer didn`t post this detail in the product`s specs... I`ll be back in a few days with an Later Edit to let you know if I did got the card or not... Fingers crossed.

Confirmed that the CHinese expansys distributor is stealing the 8gb cards out of the boxes and repackaging them. I would bet this is going on in a lot of countries, wheni called the main expansys customer srevice line they told me nothing they could do about it so apparently they don't care..... @ssh*les.....
@Raziel1 - Already read that but the problem is not with the original content the problem is with our dealers.. It wouldn`t be the first time I receive something else... Also.. They are not responsable because on their site they don`t post extre accesories like cards... It`s similar to what mlalahoi said. Repackiging is possible... The main thing is I just don`t trust them... I guess I`ll see when I receive my HD.
@htc_hd I ordered my HD from eMag.ro like a week or so ago... They say it`ll arrive on Nov 14th... clicky here

@drik--thanks man
Hi all,
I have recieved my phone from mobiles.co.uk finaly who initially advertised the I9000 as the 16gb version... This is incorrect and have since changed their website to 8gb..
I have been in contact with mobiles.co.uk who have tried to send me an 8gb memory to make up the difference. Like probably most of us here we already have 8gb memory cards so this is useless but may be useful to you.
I would advise that anybody who has purchased the Samsung Galaxy S from mobiles.co.uk as the 16gb version, to double check and you'll probably find its the 8 and if you want to return it.. do so before the return policy runs out and goto vodaphone for the 16.
I am curious how many people they have done this too!!!
Hi, I bought mine from Mobiles.co.uk, and yes it was advertised as 16g, but it was also advertised as having an LED Flash at one point. But being realistic I never expected to get a 16G version since Vodafone announced a UK exclusive on it. Mobiles corrected this as soon as they got them. I didnt bother asking for an 8 gig card, as you say, we mostly already have them.
You are fully entitled to send it back, and get one from Vodafone, but it will be locked, and likely Vodafone branded with the red dog turd. So I'm happy with my 8G version, and its hardly a limitation given we can add another 32G in the SDHC slot.
I guess its a question of weither you feel cheated or hard done by, or weither you shrug it off as an easy oversight in today's world where a new gadget arrives every week.
Thats exactly it.. but would rather be given the choice than realise when its too late and cant send it back.. Vodafone offer it for £35pm and dont give the half price offer neither which would pay for the SD card..
Just a note to people... thats all.
guys do you know if this phone work on tmobile US? can I buy it off and get it send over to the us????
thanks
..but, am uncertain about the "validity" of this online shop.
Anyone have experience with this merchent?
http://www.cellgsmphones.com/conten...omnia_7_16gb_unlocked_gsm_phone_preorder.html
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*

It's with deutsche telekom you can get the 16gb version.

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...
