HTC Desire 816 is expected to arrive in India by March end with a price tag below ₹ 20000

FYI someone who had gone to mwc and talked to the hTc guys there told me that the Indian and Latin American models will be dual sim and without NFC and LTE. Just saying.

Unless they pull a Motorola, it will probably be launched at Rs.25000 and then lowered in subsequent months

Considering that phones are usually more expensive in china than in India and the leaked price was an equivalent of 300$ this should not cost more than ₹18000

HTC desire 816 is selling officially for 1899 CNY in china = 19 k

i am gonna buy it if its 20k in india

Hi all,
Just Sharing my thoughts..........
It will be a shame if this phone ships with Sense 5.5, as this will be officially launched very closely with HTC One 2/ M8 which has sense 6.0 with on-screen buttons...
Anyways, Desire 816 is positioned as a mid-tier flagship and has a good prognosis.
At the price point of INR 20-25k for Desire 816, Nexus 5 will be a very tempting option. However, if the devs @ the XDA can pull of rooting this device and dev few Custom Roms, we dont have anything to worry.
Looking forward for the launch in India...

S400 means USB otg support. I hope this has it natively.

Need information!
The Desire 816 launched in China is without headphones. I just want to know about Indian product.
Do the package contains headphones or we have to purchase them separately? Also I can't find any online store selling it yet!

well...no online stores are selling it because it is not available to purchase yet. HTC India messaged me saying that it will be available in 2nd week of may (although a lot of other news/tech sites are claiming 1st week of may).

and what about the headset? As I heard even Moto G and X also don't come with company headphones!

there will be no headsets in indian model also..

You should like the bigger screen with amazing sense ui and camera and last but not the least the design is just like htc flagship one except it's not metal but high quality polycarbonate
It's always better than plastic samsung or cheap Micromax lava Karon etc
Also to mention htc has made pricing very attractive and at this price this should kill samsung as well

Best Place To Currently Find A Galaxy Nexus?

Looks like I need to find a GSM Nexus. The more videos I watch of Ubuntu the more I need it. Any particular place that currently has a GN for a reasonable price?
EBay is probably your best bet

You should probably spend some time to figure out which model you want, here are a list of models (from the Wikipedia page):
SCH-i515 "Toro": Verizon Wireless's variant featuring 4G LTE connectivity in the 700 MHz band (Band 13) as well as CDMA/EV-DO Rev. A connectivity in the PCS bands (800/1900 MHz). This device features 32 GB of on-board storage, measures 9.47 mm thick and features a 1850 mAh battery. This device's appearance is similar to that of the international version.
SCH-i516 "Toro": This model is same as Verizon's Galaxy Nexus: SCH-i515, however this version has 16GB.
GT-i9250 "Maguro": GSM/HSPA+ variant. Features support for both AT&T's and T-Mobile's HSPA+ bands in the United States. This particular variant was sold SIM-unlocked by Google in the Play Store.[58]
SPH-L700 "Toro Plus": Sprint's variant featuring 4G LTE connectivity in the 1900 MHz band (Band 25). It is virtually identical to the Verizon variant, save for the omission of SIM slot, and minor cosmetic differences.
GT-i9250T: Australian GSM/HSPA+ variant. Complies with Australian regulatory requirements and the baseband is tuned to prefer 3G 850 MHz. This particular variant is currently sold by Optus, Telstra and Vodafone.[59]
SHW-M420S/K: Korean GSM/HSPA+ variant. Complies with Korean regulatory requirements, like a camera shutter sound. This particular variant was sold by SKT and KT.

I ordered GT-i9250 since I think it will be compatible with T-Mobile, but one thing to note is that Canonical has not said which models the image will be compatible with (if there are compatibility issues, that is) or which model they are developing on. If they are just borrowing the kernel and drivers from Android, it may not matter.
There is also a desktop dock (has USB and HDMI), I ordered it but I ordered one that said Verizon (there were none that said T-Mobile). I don't think the dock is carrier limited, I guess I'll find out when I get it.
I'm just guessing here but I would think that they are working on the i9250 gsm version as that version works internationally and would be able to reach the most people.

This, you can usually get one for around $160 (I'm trying to get one for cheaper, not like I could use it with my carrier atm anyway). Just be sure to look out for things like "bad ESN" (means you cant use it with w/e carrier).
You might be able to get one from this forum... though it appears to be closed since december.. hm.
Edit: ah heres why: http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/the-xda-marketplace-is-closing-for-now/

Believe me I am! Full throttle revenge. Said my pictures were faked... took a video showing it and the IMEI and Serial. Now its up to Ebay and they will have my back.
Happy with eBay
I got one on eBay that was great. It cost about $250, but there were ones on there for well under $100, with some damage.
I just wish I could get a SiM card for it with something like 5GB of data that was good for a year. Still pretty cool to have a phone with no contractual obligations, though.

FYI, I got my Galaxy Nexus and Desktop Dock, and they both work together. So if you are shopping for a dock it's safe to ignore 'Verizon' or 'Sprint' in the title and just get the best deal.
Another strange thing, the model number for my Galaxy Nexus is actually: GT-I9250TSGGEN
I think it is the model I needed to get, I don't think the wikipedia page is entirely accurate about model numbers.

Somehow I think the price will either remain where it is or go up, pending compatibility with other phones and/or tablets. I know if something came out for my lowly Infuse, it would increase the value of the hardware based on what OS it could now run.
We shall see what transpires, but if you're looking to buy one now, the CDMA Verizon version might be your best bet, as they have all but stopped sending OTA updates for it. That is of course if you're on Verizon...

Samsung is selling this with a free low end phone indicating that it isn't selling so well.

I don't see the point of lte here yet. The number of towers are still small for lte coverage, the limited data plan is expensive, and it'll drain your battery faster. There just needs to be a better battery technology.
It'll take another 2 years before lte is a norm.

I recently bought the black 3G+WiFi 32GB version. Is this a general discussion article? It seems like you have issues with the device. As far as I know, I bought mine for Rs. 46,000 (Approximately US $700) at a store in Powai. I haven't had time to test the device and it's full potential yet. It's a treat and I'm enjoying it.
What is the firmware it came with ?? And my s note lags like crazy . ? Other minor lags here and there . ? My firmware when I bought it is Mj9

Hm.. decent set of freebees.. is there any Playstore credits / Samsung App store credits offering in INDIA? - in US they are offering $25 Playstore and $50 Samsung Appstore...
I own the LTE version, SM-P605 32GB, bwt, I couldn't enable those even though I purchased it from US -(one of my friend was travelling back from US, so I ordered it from ebay and delivered to his addresss.) for $700 (RS. 45,000 through Paypal conversion). The model I had purchased from ebay came from Taiwan, so the US site was not accepting serial number for galaxy perks
Can you available warranty in India with the lte version??

Hm.. decent set of freebees.. is there any Playstore credits / Samsung App store credits offering in INDIA? - in US they are offering $25 Playstore and $50 Samsung Appstore...
I own the LTE version, SM-P605 32GB, bwt, I couldn't enable those even though I purchased it from US -(one of my friend was travelling back from US, so I ordered it from ebay and delivered to his addresss.) for $700 (RS. 45,000 through Paypal conversion). The model I had purchased from ebay came from Taiwan, so the US site was not accepting serial number for galaxy perks

Unfortunately NO Google Play store credits / Samsung App store credits offering in INDIA, they just gave few games which are avaliable by paying at those stores. But other offer do substitute for them.
As per my information, LTE version of Note 10.1 2014 edition is launched in South East Asia, those countries which have currently operational LTE network, like Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, Thailand, Indonesia etc. So may be that's why US website don't accept Taiwan outlet serial number. Try registering on Samsung Taiwan www.samsung.com/tw/ then may be you can avail country specific offers.
Launching of device depends on Samsung, so we can't expect the reason of unavailability of LTE P605 version model in all countries, but soon LTE model is about to launch in US.

I don't think so, as India officially sells P601, so must be offering warranty on same. Because Indian Samsung service center has spare parts related to P601 model.

I got the p600 model from the US and have a cracked screen now. Samsung India refuses to help me out, even though the P600 and P601 models share the same internal structure, with the only difference being the 3G model.

Please elaborate your problem.
404 means you can't find some web page. Or that particular web page is missing.

Sorry bro, can't help here. Only Samsung India has authority to provide warranty & service to India specific model. If possible contact Samsung US & courier your broken device to get it repaired.

I have bought the 360 deg rotating cover from ebay. That case has horrible alignment as the magnets keep waking up the tablet with slightest of movement.
The Samsung store at Phoenix mills told me they would have stock of black one in 3 to 4 days. But he told me the same thing 2 weeks back.They had the white case in stock last week.
Couple of Samsung stores had/have couple of white cases in stock. Maybe I am the only one who has bought the black one
In case I don't get them by Sunday I may buy http://www.zenuscase.net/ They have some gorgeous cases but on the expensive side.
Thanks for info on that on ebay, I had plans to buy it, but now will wait for original samsung cover.

Waiting for 32 GB Pre-order on Amazon
Yep. Waiting for the 32 GB version. Amazon Help tweeted that 32 GB version is currently unavailable. So I guess that means it won't be available anytime soon.
Nexus 5X pre booking has started, Moto X Style looks like a better option already, what do you people think ?

I'm not considering it cuz it's too big. With Moto pushing speedy updates it does seem to be a sensible buy though.

I know I remember you from the GS2 thread which got banned and a lot of other people too the problem is that with the device fragmentation explosion people went to different threads as they opted for different devices.
I already had the knowledge about rooting and stuff and I did not want to switch away from stock nexus thus I ended up not frequenting the forum and lost track of time and people ..... it is always when i'm between devices i visit XDA to make up my mind.
On custom roms the deal is I happen to know that for Moto you need to register your device ID for unlocking the bootloader with the manufacturer thus violating the warranty. Don't know if the service centers here have an idea about as in the good olden days you could get away with anything due to ignorance of people. Cause I only use root for Titanium Backup, Tasker and Ad-away that's pretty much it..... oh also better battery stats. So i know i can do without those for a year or so. By the time my warranty would be over i would be sick of the stack and would be in a position to try all things custom ...... so yeah I could go with moto x style .................. plus the 5X is sooooooo grossly over priced.

I understand that but that is still a bit ripe, offering the least amount of ram/rom when they could give the best to and people would probably buy it. After doing the conversion it is only $610USD, for that $100 more I'd certainly double the rom space and add 2 gb to the RAM not to mention the 3d touch or "force feedback" on the 6gb model...

When I posted the deal it was 509$+9$ shipping. Now they changed it to 529$ with free shipping.
For me it's only 5% tax so 25.90$ tax
The problem I have with this is, is it appears to be the US version sold by newegg. So basically no warranty in Canada. ZTE Canada website doesn't have a mention of the Axon 7 anywhere.
