No choice but stay stock ? Horrible news.
As for the firmware upload, I've done a lot of stuff to my phones but never backed up a fimrware, how can I do that ?

What's the CDA # for the Canadian version ?

When does the Sony Store get stock?
It be nice to know what accessories come with the ones from there. Even though it will most likely be the same no dock or mdr headphones.
Only problem with getting it one with the dock and headphones on eBay is after the conversion charges and the risk of getting dinged at customs, it will cost you close at an extra $100, compared to just buying it in store and paying tax on it. I guess if you're really in need of some good noise canceling headphones and a dock, it might be worth it. Otherwise it looks like we'll just have to suck it up and deal with not getting good headphones or a dock.

Any Bell bloatware? Are they user uninstallable?

Warning: DO NOT put the phone in water. Use it only as a safety feature if the phone gets in water by accident at least if you're on Bell in Canada anyway. I submerged my phone in about and inch of water and then noticed the camera was full of moisture and thus useless. I contacted Sony and they told me to take it back to where I bought it from. I did and they wouldn't do anything. They said it shouldn't have been put in water. I argued with them and showed them the poster they had in the store that said you could use it in the water. They told me I had to contact Sony for anything like that. Well I contacted Sony again and after taking some time they told me they could not help me due to contractual obligations between Sony and Bell that they couldn't work on any phones sold through Bell. They told me to contact Bell. I contacted Bell and had to talk to a bunch of reps until I finally got escalated to a supervisor. They told me the warranty didn't cover this stuff. I again brought up their own advertising and one rep admitted it was faulty. I explained to them what the IP rating meant but they still repeated they couldn't replace or fix the phone. I ended up talking to a head supervisor who made me an offer of a $125 (one months service) credit on my account. I ended up agreeing because I had no other options. Ended up buying a Nexus 5 outright from another company and am using that now. I prefer it actually anyway. Going to try and sell my Z2 to someone who might not care about the camera and maybe the moisture will clear. So use this as a warning to be careful. I won't buy from T-Booth Mobile ever again and don't think I'll be getting another Sony again. I'd switch from Bell if not on a freshly signed 2 year contract.

I hear you! I had a problem with my old Z1 (Bell model) and I too was ping-ponged back and forth from Sony to Bell. Apparently ALL Bell registered Xperia IMEI's have to be serviced by Bell, Sony won't accept RMAs for those units.
At the end of my ordeal, I gave up working with Bell and just bought an unlocked model.

Yup I ended up buying a Nexus 5 off contract. Once the contract is up I'm switching from Bell.

Radioshack outright lied to make a sale

So i call them up last Friday asking if they had any EVOs and the guy says "No but if you pre-order now we guarantee you will have it next week" so I decide to go with the shack due to the extra $20 in accessories and the fact that he guaranteed it to be there.
so I called this past Wednesday to ask if they had them in yet and the people told me it would be here on Friday, So i wait until today then call them at noon and ask, they tell me "we are waiting on the truck" and ALL throughout the day that is the only excuse i get is the truck and to call back in an hour or a half an hour until I finally went in and the guy says " Oh they will be here Monday" so I ask "why was i guaranteed Friday and given the run around all day?" he responds "I will take your name down for the manager and you will definitely have one Monday".
I feel like they lied through there damn teeth to have me buy the $50 card and lock me in or at least make a $50 profit because really what do they sell that is worth spending the cash on?......... then I will have to get another $50 to cover the gift card if I were to buy from another store.

Especially at The Shack. They are bordering on bankruptcy or a buyout, right? They need every dollar they can get.

Think that's bad? try getting a replacement from them if your Evo is getting more mess up (screen is raising higher and major light leakage now). I called every radioshack up to 50 miles from where I'm from and all of them saying there's none in stock and are only doing pre-order or so their saying. Who knows if their saying out of stock only to lure the new customer with their preorder crap. Very fustration I'm telling you.
I know warranty is up to 1 year for manuafacture defect and also have the 7 dollars insurance through Sprint but I just want to go in and out with a new device without waiting since this is a manufacture defect.

I know the feeling, mine has major light leakage now, and I called Sprint because I had ordered mine on release day, and put me on hold only for some rep to tell me they are not taking orders over the phone even more, even for defective products, I had to go to a corporate store and get put on a waiting list. I was like WTF? Went to the corporate store and they would only tell me they would add me to a waiting list, and didn't know when the phones would be in, they are estimating 1 week. Store Manager didn't even apologize, that made me even madder, thinking about telling them to shove it and wait on the next new android phone to come out, especially since I bought mine off contract, bought my wife's with her upgrade and no problems with hers.
Have you ever worked in retail? Honestly, most of these people will tell you what they know, and a lot of these things are out of their control.
Contrary to popular belief, most people that help you at retail stores and restaurants are not out to ruin your life and steal your money, wife, job, etc. Their normal people just like you, and most of them do really try to help you out.
So cut 'em some slack!
I walked into a Radio Shack today in downtown Miami and bought 2. They were the last two left in all of Miami! I feel so lucky
I don't think they "lied through their teeth" exactly. Odds are Fridays are their normal delivery days for product. Shipments can get delayed. End of story.

Hardly. Nothing about Radio Shack now represents the old Radio Shack. I thought they were supposed to cater to hobbyists instead of immitating Best Buy!
Here is another one....On June 16th I found a new "in stock" Evo sold by Amazon. I went through the checkout and selected "overnight" shipping. I filled out the payment info and just as I clicked down on the confirm purchase button I saw the small print at the bottom saying that the order should arrive on June 30th!! 2 friggin weeks?!?!? Luckily I hadn't released my mouse button and got out of it.
lol, thats retail for you. reguarless they have to say they guarantee it, because thats radioshack's policy, who wants to take a loss from their job. their not worried, so at the end of the day its not their problem. just like anywhere else in retail.. you WILL get the phone but at the end of the say the wait is your loss lol
radio shack sucks

At&t shut down streaks

AT&T have shut down all the USA BETA Streaks i have just been reading,
It looks like it was not Dell but at&t because a dell spokesperson said the people who got a beta knew it would be shutting down but it should reactivate once at&t starts to sell them once they are released and it was at&t who shut them down not us.
I feel sorry for those that got a Beta of ebay i bet they did not know it would be shuting down and at&t has not said if they will reactivate them only dell has so will they reactivate, looks like they will have to use rebel Sim for now
Everything for mine appears fine (as of this comment)
wow that sucks
Mine just stopped working about an hour ago!
Are any of your phones that are being shut down, rooted? Are you all running version 3562?

I have sent you a PM.
i've been using my again since tuesday
I've been using my Austin Congress Avenue Mile beta unit for almost 48 hours as of this posting.
I got the warning text message initially when I powered on, but seeing how some people have had luck getting a Captivate as a concession after being locked out, I figured I had nothing to lose.
I've been using data, voice, and text with no issues at all.

Haha true, I do find good deals on craigslist though. All other beta steaks on craigslist go for $500 - $800 even though they are blocked from att.
Well after reading some post yesterday i talked my wife into putting her sim back into the streak and this morning she was locked out again, and they told her to call Dell, so that is what she is doing now.
she was not even on it for more than 12 hrs before getting kicked
I got nuked this morning. Guess I have a WiFi tablet at least.

So was your wife able to get AT&T to turn it back on/unblock it after she called them??? Just curious, I have a chance to buy a beta unit for cheap, but If it won't work with the data, I'm gonna pass...
Off topic, but I'm from Canada so a beta unit would work here on Rogers right?
If so anyone have a beta they want to sell me?
Thanks.

Same here
So I talked to my buddy who is on the dell project and he said they are still working with AT&T to get the beta units unblocked. At least the free captivate was a decent concession from ATT even if the block was a crap move to make.
I've just been using my Dell on wifi at the house in the meantime.

Haha yeah, read a lot about their shipping times. I ordered a really geeky t-shirt once from them (the LEDs-lighting-up-in-response-to-sound shirt) and they sent it well after I'd forgotten about it (must have been more than a month).
Yup.. so buying from them, price is good if you don't mind waiting a while.

They are notorious for selling grey market electronics. If you buy, better pray you won't need warranty service because you won't get any from Samsung.

They said yes, but I would like to see if other people could call in if they have time and see what they hear. I don't know if I was wording it correctly or not, but the lady kept saying "yes all our phones have 1 year warranty". Got about 12 more hours to decide haha

I ordered a Nexus S a month or two ago and its working fine with no problems. The Nexus S came brand new like described with everything still wrapped. The one problem I had was their shipping was extremely slow. I had to email them, but they replied next day with tracking. If I had the money, I would get it.

Don't take their word for it. Call Samsung and ask.
Does anyone know what their return policy is? The link on the site just redirects to the main page. I want to know if something else comes up during the month that I wait for shipping if I can cancel or send it back when it arrives.

I will say.. no returns at all unless the product was defective. I had to deal with return for a Jawbone Icon I bought a while ago, not sure was it this site, but it was one of those deal site that ships from NY... It was defective, took a few days to RMA, otherwise, there should be no return for any product purchased from those sites from my experience.

Hurry to AT&T

OK, so I'm not sure how long this deal will stick around for, so if you want to take advantage, hurry on to AT&T.
I recently got my HTC One from AT&T, still during pre-order. I had signed up for the HTC deal where you could send in your old phone and get at least $100 back. Well my proof of purchase did not include the IMEI number, so I headed on over to AT&T and asked them to reprint the purchase order with the IMEI (which they did), then the rep told me that AT&T also has a trade-in program and that I could do it through them. I said "what the heck, give it a try and tell me how much I will get for one of my old phones (Samsung Galaxy Captivate)". He said $24 + $76 bonus on this new special program we are running, for an even $100 for my old Captivate. Sweeeeeeet! Went back the next day with my old captivate and wifes old captivate, rep told me $9, so I explained there's a new program and that the rep the previous day said it would come out to $100. Sure enough I got $100 for each of the phones for an even $200. The catch is you can only spend it at AT&T, so I applied it to my bill, it will stay there until the $200 runs out.
HTC One on pre-order with a 2 year contract $200
Trade-in two old phones -$200
HTC One for free in the bag. I love it.
Just posting this so someone else with an older phone can take advantage.
Ya... All companies offer a trade in like that.. Nothing special
Thanks for the info.
I went to AT&T last time to order one, but since my 2 year contract has not ended yet, I decided to pay full price. The manager told me no, he can't sell it to me full price because this is a hot phone and only available to people who sign a 2year deal. So I left and bought the dev edition on HTC website.

Actually the thing that makes this special is the 100 dollar minimum. They will buy a blackberry curve for 100 bucks. That's a hell of a deal. That's why they tried to offer him 9$ the first time. I think this is a thing directly from HTC not really just at&t.
yes most companies do offer that... but $100 for a captivate?!.... Yes it is something special.
Also, I don't believe this is an HTC thing. I was able to get $100 for my wife's old captivate and she didn't even get an upgrade.

He's right dudes. I work at RadioShack as the assistant manager. You definitely can't even think about getting $100 for a captivate at the shack. I really would take advantage of this deal...pretty dang good to me. And I've been in the business for quite some time.

You should be able to get $100 for either of those.

LG G watch offer from 3 (UK)

Anybody know how to claim the offer from 3 when you have bought the G3? I didn't get any info when my phone was delivered today.

I believe the 8th is when the global services for the watch are opened so owning one before then won't get you very far anyway.

I may be wrong, but I believe the offer was only open to anyone who pre-ordered the g3.

i went into three this morning and the guy there was adamant that I had to have pre ordered the watch at the same time I pre ordered the G3...
He wasn't going to budge, so i walked.

he assures me he has....don't believe him though.
This was the Cannon Street store, and I have also had the same reply from the Holborn store. Canterbury say they will do it, but I can't get there for another week or so.
I phoned 3 myself and they were useless, because I upgraded in store, they tell me they are unable to provide any clarification.

This "promotion" is a joke. I mean, at NO point when i was upgrading did they say that I had to pre-order both at the same time.
Did you have to pay any fee for the remainder of your contract?
This is from the Three website:
"Only £99 When Bought with LG G3*
*Once you’ve purchased the LG G3, visit one of our stores within 21 days to get the LG G Watch for only £99, which is usually £169 when purchased on its own. You must provide proof of purchase via your dispatch note/receipt with mobile number and ID.
The LG G Watch is available in store from the 8th July, but you can secure yours on pre order from 26th June in store."
It seems pretty clear to me, but apparently I am reading this wrong.

My contract is only 7 days old! They just said return the phone then.
So I then rang again to the online team and they confirmed and apologized that the other staff haven't got a clue what they are talking about. She told me to go in-store from the with with my receipt to claim my watch

well good luck with that. I tried this also, but he was adamant, even with a receipt and proof of what their website he wasnt doing it.
Ive had this problem went in this morning and refused to accept that this offer exists at all which was rather annoying tbh so i told them to ram it ill buy one online.
They also said that this offer was onky for pre orders and that everyone should of known about it at no point has 3 in my town ever advertised this offer or mentioned it when i got my phone ended up having a huge argument with the store manager telling him is useless and a joke then i showed him my tweets from here that i posted between my self and Brendan and he still refused to acknowledge the offer so i gave up.

I just spoke with "Sharon" at three on the phone. She confirmed that the watch should have been pre-ordered at the time i got the phone.
But, she has applied the £70 difference to my account so i can buy the phone at the full price and be no worse off.
My advice, speak with three, tell them whats happened and they should sort it out.
Good luck, took me a 30 minute phone call to get the resolution i deserved!

This is pretty stupid seen as they were not even offering the watch at the time most people pre-ordered!
