Hi, has anyone already got a DHD from any T-mobile stores in UK? though it's already available from online, but my address is not accepted (uni address, and it's the only address i can use).
I live in Guildford and when i phoned the stores both in this town and in London they told me there won't be any stock untill November...OMG i can't wait that long!
ps the reason i chose tmobile is they offer unlimited internet in a low price cause i brows alot and don't need too many mins or texts.
Last Friday I was told T-Mobile stores in the UK would 'probably be getting stock within 7 days'. 'though they also said they'll be fulfilling online pre-orders first.. and I still haven't got mine
November is only next week though, so might not be all that long a wait!
can't understand why htc didn't just simply put another evo4 in eu market, DHD's got planty of problems revently, just saw the Engadget Review of DHD, got mostly nagative review.
Go for online shops

Many retail shops do the same, i dont used to go for retail shops because the single mobile price may include shoprent, employee sal, transport charge, EB etc better go for online shops better try this onlinemobileworld.blogspot.com i had good experience with this site
We have been told we should get stock either end of this week or beginning of next week depending on stores delivery schedule
T-mibile stores get delivery on either Wednesday or Friday, I was told today it might arrive on next friday ,if not, it could be anytime in Nov and they even compared 'emself to vodafone(which already got DhD in store before a week) by "V's got DHD early but some devices have prob"
get it from carphonewarehouse or phones4u, they give better deals anyway. £25 a month on t mobile, free phone.
i have owned a t_mobile DHD for about 10 days now, received from T-Mobile in london. Nice phone, battery sucks
Engadget is an Apple`s dog. Don`t trust them.
Yeah mine is from e2save which is part of carphonewarehouse next day delivery last week and is sim free model on 25 a month for 600mins unlimited tx unlimited internet which t mobile give 3gb allowance on this handset which is a lot. Seems a high demand for this handset. Been a iPhone owner for years and I carnt describe how happy I am with this phone,

Bell Canada and Virgin Mobile Canada will be releasing the Samsung Galaxy S2 4G (the 4G is Bell's naming, its still 21Mbps) July 14th. Many retailer already received the unit, but they will go on sale only on the 14.
This thread is to collect information, tips, and rooting/unlocks tips.
Similar thread over howardforum: http://www.howardforums.com/showthr...will-sell-it-unlocked?p=14466326#post14466326
Price is gonna be 599.95$ without a contract an around 150$ with a 3yr contract.
Sadly, it seem for reason I don't undersand that retailer, will not let the phone go out of the store un-activated (need a new contract or an existing customer transfering phone). The minimum "contract" seem to be a 30day 50$ plan from virgin, bell offer a similar but add initial fees, which virgin don't.
If anyone find a way around this, or store willing to sell without activating the phone, post it over here.....
So far Futureshop, Bestbuy and some the source all told me the same... But feel free to give it a try.
More to come shortly

From polling a few retailers (The Source, Future Shop, Bell Mobility Stores, Wireless Wave, etc.) I found it's pretty much hit and miss. Usually 1 store is willing to sell it to you off contract for every 4 asked, but, then that could change if they fly off the shelves.
Most of the store I found had either them on order (avg 6 units), or in stock (avg 3 units)... So be there early.
Was there any Bell store willing to sell off contract? (I haven't tried thoses.) Assuming they would be less flexible.

I found one Bell store willing to do it, but, there was a condition that it would be a final sale.
They can say whatever they want but any phone sold by Bell will have to be honored by their warranty program. You can talk to Bell corporate about this and they'll confirm it. They'll also tell you that if you want to buy the phone off-contract they can't refuse you. Store owners are just being dicks because they get no commission with no plan activation. Had the same sort of issues when the Nexus S was released in Canada and people wanted to buy off-contract since they were unlocked (despite Rogers/Telus/Bell claiming they were locked).

I dont think that would be legal... How would they enforce this..
Sell a 599$ phone, but say, no warranty for you.
Really, I am looking at a the source flyer, and it say 599$ with no contract. There is no place where it say you need a minimum 30 days plan required.
Other than: to get the reduce price with a X year contract you need a minimum 50$ plan.
I just don't know how to force them to sell me the phone, even if I think they are lying about the 30 day
I'm definitely going to look in to getting one off-contract, as I'm currently with Rogers...
Anyone know of any issues so far that would prevent the phone from working properly on Rogers?

I got the impression that he was referring to not being able to return the phone within the 14 day return period. I don't think he was talking about the warranty.
Sorry for the confusion.
Thanks!

My understanding is all that you'd have to do is root and unlock the phone, and it should work fine on the Rogers network.
News that the release date could be July 21st:
http://mobilesyrup.com/2011/07/12/b...p+(mobilesyrup.com)&utm_content=Google+Reader
When Bell announced they’ll be one of the carriers who will release the Samsung Galaxy S II 4G they never confirmed a launch date, only that it will be available “in the coming weeks”. Carriers usually state this just in case there are shipping issues or problems meeting software tests. Rumours surfaced over the past few weeks of a July 14th release, but we are now hearing the launch date is officially set for Thursday, July 21st.
Apparently us Canadians will be getting the latest software and Bell wants to ensure that enough supply is available. The internal doc we received says that Bell is “anticipating very strong demand for the device” and waiting for “adequate supply to arrive”. Samsung recently announced that worldwide sales of this Android has already topped 3 million in just 55 days. This will be available for $599.95 on a no-contract and it’s expected the 3-year price will be $169.95.
Every store I been to told me july 14. I don`t think they will push it to 21.
My Bell rep forbade my Best Buy from selling it before the 21st and I got confirmation of this via an internal memo. We have it, but can't sell it.
BS.... We will see..
Whether we want to believe it or not, it's the truth... I'm as frustrated about it as you are, as I sold my Nexus last week to pay off my Telus cancellation fees, and now I'm going to be phone-less another week and a half...
go to wireless wave or phone booth. they let you purchase the phone out right. the warranty is void if you unlock the phone no matter where you purchase the phone.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yea. that was my plan, walk around im sure somebody will sell it..
Just got back from Future Shop. Their live display model is out, and I managed to play with it a bit.
They confirmed as well that July 14 is the release date.
I got a question for you guys: Why don't you just buy one from a UK site instead of waiting for Bell/Virgin's release?
Warranty will be void anyways if you buy from Bell or Virgin without contract. You have to pay $599 + activation + possible minimum plan + tax + cancellation fee(?).
If you order from Clove or Handtec, you can get a UK warranty (meaning to ship back if anything unfortunate happen to the phone...better than no warranty!). It'll only cost less than $640 including shipping.
Anyone frankly explain it to me?
Hi,
It would appear that as of tomorrow (13th) we will be able to order the Nex4 from the Play store (hopefully with delivery for the 14th). There are also rumours that CPW will have stock from the 14th (although their website says delivery 13th).
Wondering if anyone has any more concrete info... I am mainly wondering if there is anywhere to pick up a Nex4 tomorrow (13th) for the Play store prices and sim-free as per hte Galaxy Nexus and Nex7.
Anyone???
/R
CPW stock is for contract-only at the moment. They're not selling it SIM-free. I asked at the Leeds branch yesterday.
Prices start at £31 per month on a 24 month contract, so that's £744 for a £279 phone. It's just madness!
I'll be buying the Nexus 4 from the Play store to go with my £15 per month contract-free 3 mobile tariff with all-you-can-eat data.

not really the phone is more around the £450 maybe more its just that google are really subsidizing the handset by quite a bit so if you think about it the phone is worth the rrp which will be around 450 mark maybe more lol
Best bet in UK is that play store imho
Sent from my Wildfire S using xda app-developers app
Yeah you won't find it at Play Store prices anywhere else because Google are subsidising the price, hence it being so low. There was a story about a Spanish website who are refusing to stock it because LG will only sell it for over £100 more than the Play Store.
Basically, your only options are Play Store or pay more (catchy )

Has that actually been confirmed? Spain may just be being treated completely differently - they might just be getting shafted thanks to the current financial situation there.

There was a theory in another thread that it would be 5pm UK time, based on the Nexus 7 having gone on sale at 9am PDT on its day of release.

If that was the case, they wouldn't be delivered on the 14th, which is what I thought was supposed to be happening?
I am looking at three likely possibilities, in ascending order of likelihood, for UK buyers:
- Midnight tonight - Pretty unlikely as that would actually be 4pm on the 12th in Pacific time (Google's own timezone). I can only see this if they launch in each territory separately.
- 8am tomorrow morning - More likely as that would be a midnight launch in Pacific time.
- 5pm tomorrow afternoon - That would be 9am Pacific time. This seems most likely given that it's normal office hours and the time they've launched other devices in the Play Store.
I've still entered my email for notification, plus set up http://www.changedetection.com/ to email me when the page changes! I have then set tasker to fire an alarm if I get emails from either of these! I'll still be up at midnight anyway though, and get up at 6 for work.
I went to CPW today and they said they are not allowed to sell them till the 14th, and are under strict instructions to "NOT SHOW THEM TO ANYONE" until then!
He also said they didn't know if they were going to be sold Sim free, but if they were he thought they would be £400 off contract. He also said that someone else had been in earlier on today asking about it!
I also went into T-Mobile (EE), to get a Micro-Sim (which they gladly took £10 off me for the privilege), I said I was buying a new phone, the girl asked where I was buying it, I said the Google Play Store and she looked at me like I was mental!!
She asked what it was called and I said it was the Nexus 4, and she said she had never heard of it! Glad to see that carriers are keeping their staff up to date with upcoming devices (I know T-Mobile is not getting it as such, but Google selling it for £279 is pretty major news in the Mobile world).
I then pulled out my GNex to change sim cards and she asked what that one was? I said it was the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, and she hadn't heard of that either - even though its a year old phone!!!

Haha! Did she actually know what a mobile phone was? Or was she an iPhone user
I was in a CPW today in London, the guy had heard of it and said it should be available from the 14th. He didn't even know that there was a UK Google Play store and that it could be ordered from there. He didn't know the price either and was basically just saying get it from the play store if you can.
5PM tomorrow leaves a very tiny chance of receiving the device on the 14th, even if there is the next day option at checkout. Although ebuyer lets you order next day up until 11pm so it is possible to do from a logistical point. Fingers crossed

"However, it seems Google has other plans for its new phone and tablet launch. Google Germany employee Stefan Keuchel took to Google+ today to inform followers that the new devices would not be available at the stroke of midnight, as some had speculated. Instead, he says he's learned that Germans will be able to start ordering devices tomorrow afternoon or early evening."
Still think it will be a global launch, but based on the Yanks. So most probably tomorrow evening seems logical. Next day delivery is still possible as long as they don't use crap couriers like Yodel!

There's a thread going with T-Mobile pre-orders in the Q&A forums. I pre-ordered on the 18th, first date it was available. Had an estimated delivery date of the 26th which came and went. My card was just charged yesterday, thinking they will start shipping today or tomorrow. My status is still as backordered.
This whole pre-order thingy is whack, should have just waited till Wednesday and gone in to get the N3 and Gear watch same time.

I pre-ordered on the 19th. My cash was held on Friday but I haven't received any shipping info. I've called in asking for the status and was told they won't ship anything until the 2nd. I'm thinking I should have just gone into the store since I ordered ground shipping and will have to wait that long now. Kinda sucks.
I feel yall...whats the damn benefit of preordering if you get it when the stores get it...hell you could save on the shipping cost...COME ON T-MOBILE

Now that you mentioned shipping that just made me more upset, $25 overnight shipping to get it maybe 1 or 2 days later than stores? WTF....
Also if there is a problem with the device, ordering in the store is MUCH easier because you can just walk in and swap it out. Online orders you have to ship it back to them, wait up to a week for them to look over it and hope they don't lose it (they lost my S4 for 3 weeks in their receiving warehouse) then mail you out another and you get charged $5 for a "swap" fee.
Top it off, you can't cancel the order once you pre-order it. This whole pre-order thingy stinks of BS. T-Mobile rep said to wait for it to ship (whenever that will be) then wait for the UPS man and refuse delivery, that's the ONLY way to cancel it. You'll lose your shipping charges too. Nice eh?
I forgive them though, they did get my LG G2 delivered to me 2 weeks before the store release date. =)
I had to order mine online to quality for my promotion (10% off service and $50 account credit). It also claims I'll have 2-4 days to wait for it (free shipping, no expedited option was available). I'm willing to be patient to save $218 over the course of two years, though

Well I have had mine since 1034am and so far I'm not liking it as much as the mega 6.3. It's basically the same size as the note 2 the no big difference there. There is auto correct while typing. It is rooted however the system is keeping certain root apps from working, such as wifi trevE mod which I still haven't figured out. Anyone that has a work around on the wifi trevE mod please by all means help me out with a link & screen shot of the settings. Thanks in advance.

Im currently using a nexus 5. My screen is broken pretty badlyand and my headphone jack is failing. I really like the specs of the force/turbo. I'm on ATT so I would need to go force. I'd also like to get the force so I can root. But I'm haveing a hard time finding the phone on the market though. Is there anyone in the US that is using the force? If so where did you end up buying it from? Are you enjoying it?
You can get one from Mexico. I've got mine from UK because I went to EU for holidays. I'm really enjoying it. The best Android phone I ever had and the first one I'm using at is. No bl unlock, no root. Strange feeling
Usually I'm unlcoking and flashing custom rom max few days, max one month after purchase.
Did you order from the Motorola EU online store or did you buy it in person somewhere? I looked at the Mexico Motorola store today but it looks like they will only ship to Mexico. Need Google translator to confirm though.

I won it on ebay auction. Few shops from UK selling it too. Jaocagomez can help you to get one from Mexico.
I'm still in Europe (Budapest) on business trip and flying back to San Jose on February 6. Maybe you can order here and I can bring to you. Not sure is it good idea
Thanks, but I'd rather purchase it so it ships directly to me. No middle man hasels.
I did confirm Motorolas Mexico site will only ship to Mexico.
Hunting around I feel like the phone has not been released yet. I know its going to be released in India in February but from the news articals I read the phone was released in november, yet most webistes say preorder or coming soon. Did I miss something? Even some ebay listings reflect this. Unless you want to spend 900$+.

A you wish. I wasn't sure should I offer you help or not, take responsibility, etc.
I saw one on swappa and another one on ebay, both USA sellers but prices was really bad. One from Ebay sold for $810!? Then I've checked sites from the link I posted and contacted them. If you're buying from USA then is without VAT but you're importing it in USA so you have to pay duty, tax and maybe stuck at border to get permission for importing uncertified device.
@BladeRunner could you share details how much you paid all together and did you have any problems at border. Would be really useful info for everyone.

Thanks for looking into this so much guys!
With my gears a turning the past couple of days I think im going to hold off though. Id really like to buy straight from motorola. That way if I have any issues I can just deal with them directly. That and I gain the ability to cusomize the phone if I order through them.
Im being optamistic I know but the phone was listed on Mexico's site on Monday and just noticed it was listed for Brazil today. So you never know.
This is definatly a good thread to keep alive incase others are interested like Makiger.
So I thought I would try and do an "over the phone" order to see if there was anything special they could do. Sadly this was unsuccessful. But the agent I spoke with did say something that may be intreeging to some. It honestly could mean nothign or it could mean real soon. Who knows?
Jessel: Oh, I do apologize for that. As of the moment, this Moto X Force is not yet available on our webiste. What I can suggest is to visit third party vendors and see if they already have Moto X Force available here in the US. We looking forward to this phone to be available soon.

I think that agent doesn't have a clue what he's talking He's just repeating generic phrase. Turbo 2 is exclusive for Verizon. Do you really think that Moto can offer basically the same device in US and brake exclusive contract with Verizon?
Don't get me wrong, I would like that Moto didn't even make Turbo 2, just Force globally.

you can buy from the UK, it just takes a while to get it.
A listing just popped up on India Amazon a little early for the rumored release date..

PSA:
If you do buy from Clove Technology - or any overseas store - and you're paying with PayPal, make sure to change their default currency conversion to use your credit card's exchange rate instead.
Just priced the phone (Jan 29, 2016) as £431.83 shipped to me in the USA. According to XE.com, that's $613.78 USD with a conversion rate of 1 USD = 0.703554 GBP.
PayPal was giving me a rate @ 1 USD = 0.678425045 GBP, which would make the cost $636.52 USD, or an increase of $22.74, which is a full tank of gas for me.
Good Experience With Handtec
I got mine from Handtec UK (Sorry, can't post a link)
It arrived today in Louisiana from FedEx and it only took about 2 days to get here. No problems with customs or VAT whatsoever. All in all, it cost me around $625 (Used PayPal at Checkout), including shipping. Other than the UK wall plug it came with, I'm very satisfied so far.
