All infos in there.
Love that they are getting these out early I know a number of US devs have said they will only pick up the dev version, not a carrier one.... so yay
I preordered the AT&T version but thinking about changing to this. Will the AT&T version get roms (like CM10) or will it be too difficult for devs? Also, does the AT&T version have any AT&T branding on it!?
Am I the only one who can't find the link to the phone? It keeps showing phones sold now by Sprint, etc

It will get ROMs and yes it has the branding on the back plus regular carrier bloatware.

It's also not 10am EST yet. May have something to do with whether or not it shows up in their system.
I'm going with this one because of the great price(64gb) and unlocked bootloader.
I cancelled my preorder with handtec, worth the extra 1 week wait.
I wish I could get this in Canada
Does anyone know about the international warranty status of the Dev Edition?
Anything different from regular warranty?
I'm really on the fence here. I love the idea of owning a limited edition dev phone from HTC, but I don't really need 64GB of storage and the price just seems unreasonable right now since there's the $100 trade in offer and free accessories form AT&T and T-Mobile when you pre-order through them.
I really need someone to clarify this for me. Does Dev phone will get HSPA+/4g and LTE or it will only get 2g and LTE in some area?

That's right. Depends on if the area you're in has been refarmed for 1900mHz
how does the preorder work? do they charge your card for the full amount or preauthorize a small amount and then charge the rest when it ships?
So where are they? They just added the sprint and Tmobile versions to the HTC US Sales site. No dev.

I'm attempting to buy the AT&T SGSIII with the full price since it's probably the cheapest you can get among all the options.
As I am going to use it on Rogers network in Canada, I would like to know if it's carrier-locked even i pay for the full price???
I know Android phones are pretty easy to get unlocked. I just don't want the hassle.
I plan on driving down to the Seattle this upcoming weekend and nail one!!! Cannot wait anymore!
Even if you get it without commitment, the device will still be locked. AT&T won't unlock it for about six months (I don't know the exact length). Why not just try cellunlocker.net? It unlocked my phone in thirty mins. It's just 25$ so give it a try

Wow..... 6 months.... So, if i get it unlocked through cellunlocker.net, and I flash back to the factory setting and have AT&T unlocked it for me 6 months later?? Will they still honor the warranty??
Sorry for my noob question. Coming from iPhone and not quite familiar with American carrier.
AT&T says they have a 6 month period when they have exclusivity on the phones, but they obviously don't have exclusive rights in the US. Also, they've been unlocking iPhones that were purchased outright, so you can use that to your advantage.

Once you do a sim unlock, it's unlocked forever. No need to get a code from AT&T when it's available.
AT&T is interested in selling phones for it's network, not selling to people looking to sell or take them somewhere else.

Not many people are aware of this but att actually provides unlock sim codes up to 5 a year. I believe you just have to be in good standing with them for like 3 months or something close to that. Just call them up, they'll either do it over the phone or direct you to a website to submitt a request. I called them up recently to get the sim unlock for my gs4. After a few minutes they gave me the code. Now as soon as I get my note 3, I can sell my s4 as an unlock.

I am currently on a non-contract ATT plan. I ordered the Note 1 and it worked fine on tmobile and then ATT. I pre-ordered the Note 3 from handtec.co.uk. I am hoping to have it by Friday. Ideal: it should be shipped tomorrow 1-2 day FedEx. Hope that helps.

Even putting aside the bad English, your question does not make any sense. "unlocked" refers to GSM network only feature, called carrier lock or network lock. There is no such thing as "LTE unlocked" or any type of unlock for CDMA network, such as VZW

They do not currently have them in stock yet, but will accept your order. Sold direct from Amazon. I ordered one because it's $50 cheaper than a carrier locked.

verizons carrier price is 599.99. Maybe youre talking about the other carriers?

Well HTC themselves won't have it available for shipment until April 3rd, so it will most likely be the 3rd when Amazon ships as well. I may just place my order there as HTC is a hassle

Well I got lucky and ordered the Dev edition on HTC's site before they pulled it down. I did however receive a cancellation email. I called back and they put it back in, (had an issue with my bank) and she even waived the overnight shipping for me. Said it will ship next week. The only thing is, order status says shipping today.
One question, Anyone know if the Dev Edition will work with AT&T LTE?

The Developer Edition is based directly off of the AT&T SKU of the phone. This means it's only fully supported by AT&T's network, and no others.
Edit: I ordered mine while it was still up also, but it got cancelled and I couldn't re order. A few users have talked to HTC, and they've said the Dev edition will ship on 4/3 so I'm pretty sure that's when it will happen. You got lucky though, they weren't that nice to me XD
Anyhow, I ordered one from Amazon at the above link with prime overnight shipping, so I truly hope it comes relatively soon. They won't charge me until it ships, though, so that's nice.
Thanks... I canceled my Google play edition and ordered the developer edition gunmetal color. Ordered with next day prime shipping, with Amazon's awesome customer and return policy I prefer to buy from them instead of HTC or Google.

I would order from Amazon with prime as well, however Amazon would charge me sales tax since I am in New York. Which is sorta a deal killer.
Sorry but can someone just quickly explain what is the difference between DE unlocked and regular unlocked? I am on T-Mobile and it seems T-mobile hasn't even released any info on it and HTC.com is only showing the other 3.

as far as i know DE is the okay way to be unlocked with out voiding any warranties. The regular unlock is us being sneaky and doing it.
The only confirm htc one m8 working with tmobile is currently the googleplay edition.
I am 99 % sure the DE is using the ATT bands.

Yes I read that somewhere too, that the DE is more or less a gimmick and not as fully unlocked the moniker suggests. If that's the case, then the unlocked edition is fine and I would save myself the the extra $50 over the GPE..

The only thing is if your on tmobile you will not get coverage everywhere with the DE, so that the big thing.
If that's not a problem then get the DE. I myself rather pay the 50 extra and know I have 4g/LTE wherever I go.

The unlocked version is the same as the DE. Just doesn't have a unlocked boot loader to flash freely as DE. It's still doesn't have the right Band to give you 4g/LTE everywhere.

OK so here's what I know:
The HTC One M8 Google Play Edition is fully unlocked, and fully supports T-Mobile and AT&T in the USA.
The HTC One M8 Developer's Edtion has the exact same bands as the AT&T model, so it is fully supported by them only. It, too, is fully unlocked, but it doesn't have the AWS band for T-Mobile. Both of these phones are usable overseas, however, and this is why there's an advantage over a carrier version.
There has been no official word on the specs/compatibility of an unlocked non-developer version yet, so I can't comment there.
Lastly, the reason the GPE, Dev, unlocked, and 32GB carrier versions are delayed is that the 32GB phone isn't technically out yet.
There's most of what I know about the situation as of now.

Thanks! So much info has been pouring in lately I've only read the reviews and such. Not many have explained the different variants. Not to mention all the comparison videos and reviews which are coming comparing Z2, Find 7, S5, etc. But honestly, $700 plus tax is no joke.. :/
Well essentially I am looking at buying the Nexus 6P from the US google store and have been unsuccessful so far since its out of stock (looking at the 64 GB Graphite).
So the question is will the US model work on the LTE bands in Australia?

How does one go about doing this? If you buy the phone form AT&T/Verizon/T-Mobile for the full prize are they unlocked or do you have to put in a request? I have no idea how it works. Which version should I get? I checked best buy and they only sell carrier-tied for $300+400 I want to pay the full $800 or whatever they cost.

They all will have carrier apps and some form of branding, and they all will be locked(Except Verizon). You should be able to purchase any of them outright. The unlock policies varies by carrier. Also I believe only AT&T and Verizon request locked and encrypted bootloaders.

I contacted them and they asked me to wait until the release date, I live in DR and I'm in the same situation. I already contacted a couple of local sellers that are doing pre orders and will deliver on the 15th. Look around your local market, it will be a bit expensive but if you really want it is an option.

All new s7 models are region locked so a europe version wont work with a usa sim , the lock is a temporary lock that switches off after 5 minutes with a phone call with the correct sim , carrier models lock to the first sim card you insert and do not unlock , which is why its always better to buy phones in independant shops , apart from no locks its also carrier bloat free

Clove UK and Unlocked Mobile are claiming all they need to do is exactly that, insert a European SIM card then make a 5 minute call and it should be ready to use in the US.
