I got it last Dec. Everything works fine and is perfect shape. It's been unplugged and in the box for about a week. I got it to stream movies, but the quality of Netflix kept us using our bluray player instead. We basically used it for emulation, but that lost its novelty because we've had an old computer hooked to the TV for years to play games on. Wife and son pretty much stopped using it for anything around March, and I just do casual gaming and YouTubing when they go to bed. Just got Sonic 4 during the sale last week, and it's pretty fun on the MOJO.
Not only do I have the adapters/cables/etc., I've also got the little plastic nubbins that go on the ends of the HDMI cable. Heh, heh, heh.
It's been factory reset, so it's stock + root. Using the second firmware update, not the one that came out recently (it's in the box) Never bothered with opening the case, or anything, and the CTRLR was only used by my son under supervision (it's clean, not sticky or boogery like his DS).

Yep. I've got it on Craigslist and a few other pages for $150, but XDA gets a better deal.

wife is onboard, just need to sell my vita. ill go ahead and toss it up on CL

Sweet. It's yours when you're ready....Wait....As in a PS Vita? I'd totally trade. I actually have that in my CL post that I'd trade for one...Portable emulation with actual buttons would be superb.
Either way, though, I'll keep hold of it for you.

i have one person who may be interested in buying it so if that falls through ill hit ya up. i have the slim bundle but i used the borderlands 2 code already, its a month old (bought it on the 28th) and still has teh box and everything.

so you guys have multiple accounts, can either one of you answer at least some of the questions i posted in this thread? ive been trying to port cwm/twrp but neither recoveries boot, you guys dont appear to be using dtb files which makes me confused on why only stock recovery will boot. i cant even get a log and since the device has no adb access i cant even test anything out.

You know you still have like 1 1/2 weeks to contact HTC for warranty since the phone is still under a year. I think it was released Oct. 20th.

Technically got it last night, but it was in the hotel and I was at the launch party been setting it up on the train home. Feels so much more responsive than my x10!
Launch party was a blast, didn't get in till 3am, met a few people, liked the decorations!

i think your pictures are too small mate.
i recieved mine today also about 1pm. does anyone know how i can add games to the games list that pops up when you open the slider? i've installed gun bros and asphalt but they dont come up in that games list i have to access them via normal menu.
Damn i wish i had mine in already. I wasnt able to pre-order as i have to pay 100euro when i extend with my current provider. I hate being broke.
Got mine at lunch time
just got mine a few hours ago.... my first android phone, i've always been a windows man. So this is quite alot to take in.... my first impression is that android is ****... but everyone has told me that it will grow on me.
I'm a windows man to, tried linux, tried mac, stayed on windows for pc. Always preferred WM6.5 over iOS and blackberry OS (also over palm for pda).
But I am giving android a shot with this one, really need the games and I don't think I'd like windows phone 7. The reason I preferred WM6.5 was it opennes and at the time all the avaible apps you could downlaod everywhere and easely install.
I hope a rooted android will give me the same. But I'm sure the emu's will make up for it plenty if it doesn't
And to stay on topic, I'm getting mine monday!
could one of you guys do me a huge favor and post your build.prop file from /system?? I am developing for this phone and would really appreciate someone doing this for me thanks.
Three promised me it would come on Tuesday, in spite of the delay. Will be my first android phone, so not sure what to expect. I'll be praying to the postman gods it comes though!
No pics, but got mine today from CPW on T-Mobile, and should enjoy it when I prise it out of my kids' hands!!
Mine is sitting in my local ups depot but they sent it express saver so no delivery till Monday. I ordered it as an offline/ wifi only device as I'm very happy with my phone and service. But this is the only decent android powered gaming handheld.
We will not speak of odroid

I am a Windows Phone 7 fan girl...NOT windows mobile.
I love my hd7 and i love xbox live integration
However i will be getting this phone when it comes to the US on Verizon.
Android by itself is rather...dull to me and just feels half baked(great hardware but the software just seems one step behind)
and I have owned plenty of android phones.
Currently own a mytouch 4g and HD7(my main phone) and I am hoping the xperia play will make me fall in love with android all over again
I do recommend that if you guys dont enjoy your plays to either trade or return and try a windows phone 7 device.
GREAT DEVICE and I am so jealous of those of you who already had it.
LOL i can't wait to move to Europe lol
whats so great about wp7?

Very Low Profile Bluetooth Keyboards...?

I'm not thoroughly convinced that I need a keyboard with my device, but if I was going to buy one, it would have to be either very small or very thin. Why tote around a keyboard that's just as large as the tablet?
Any ideas?
Of course, there's always this: http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/keyboards-mice/8193/
(if it was ever in stock again).
I am currently using the Acer wrapping with an Incase faux-fir slip case, so I'd hope that it would be low-profile enough to fit in there.
I am curious as well. what are the best keyboard/case combis that we can get
If you give me 24 hours I think I may have a pretty small keyboard that may work for us. I just need to test it first to make sure the BT connects properly. Feel free to contact me 'if' I forget to hop on and post findings

I also wonder if one of these will work right. May order one just to try - would be great for travelling, just roll it up and shove it in your suitcase.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...m_re=flexible_keyboard-_-23-166-084-_-Product
Also, a prerelease product info page on an interesting BT fold-up keyboard:
https://jornostore.com/
that jorno is nice but not for that much!!!! you can get a flexi keyboard bluetooth on amazon for around 30
I was considering getting the Motorola atrix keyboard.... i have the atrix so that with bluetooth on the tablet would work fine specially considering the android function buttons..
I have the Moto keyboard (Link) and for the most part it's a very nice unit. The only real issue with it is the massive bump in the back where they put the batteries and whatever else they have packed into it, that and not all the short cut keys work, but I am not sure that is the keyboard.
It's worth the purchase, and is very nice on the plane, but I find myself not carrying it locally just due to size. The Jorno looks like a great compromise for when I am more local but want to slam out a page or two...

Sure, it's not going to be the world's greatest keyboard, but I'm really just looking for decent yet portable. If I really need something more, I've got a Logitech K340 that works great. It's not bluetooth, but Logitech's USB receivers are so small anymore that it really doesn't detract at all.

Sorry, I have been swamped with work. I can confirm that this keyboard DOES work with the iconia but not with standard BT pairing.

Stand is great, but unfortunately the keyboard doesnt work natively, it uses spp, which you have to purchase a 15 dollar app to use it with the tablet, and the app is a piece of junk, returned the keyboard, now i gotta find a new one

You know I am almost thinking of preordering this thing. I have wanted a tablet for sometime and I have been looking at the Transformer as my first choice. This however looks like a great device for the price for what I would be using it for. Basically an e-reader, as I already read all my books on Kindle Software on my EVO, watching movies on the go either from HBO Go, Netflix or even Amazon's services and maybe some light web browsing and email.
So the question is, buy it now and have in in November and wait for the wonderful folks here to root the thing so I can run what I want on it OR wait until someone else gets them and puts out a review on it?
hmmmm..what to do what to do...
Do they charge your card if you pre-order? Or does it only charge when it ships out? I'd hate to have $200 something out from my credit card balance for over a month. It wont be out until November (mid).
I could have sworn I've seen Amazon preorders say "You won't be charged until this item ships" but that seems to be lacking for the Fire.
Can anyone that has preordered confirm if they've been charged?
Pre-ordered while in class . Can't wait for this thing to get into my hands. Praying that there won't be a locked bootloader. If not this thing has a shot of running a homebrew Ice Cream Sandwich!
Edit: I'll let you know if I get charged in an hour or two.
I pre-ordered this morning and have not been charged yet, so I'm assuming they will not charge until it ships.
I preordered as soon as it was up.figure worst case i give it as a gift. But im really intrested to see how a 7 inch tablet works out.
Current use ipad2 but been wanting something smaller.
I am getting one for the wife - just her speed I think...
I'll stick with my ASUS EP121 and ExoPC slates for me.
Amazon charges you when the item ships. So if you pre order, you have a couple months to decide what you really want to do.
I just went ahead and preordered one. I just read on AndroidTablet.com that Amazon acknowledged that this device will be easily rooted and that they won't stand in the way of it happening.
I figure I will get it, play around with it while the great folks here figure out the process and then I will decide if I want to keep it or not. For $200 I am not out much and I can give it away as a Christmas gift or return it if I don't like the thing.
DONE! How can you pass it up at that price? And with XDA throwing knives at it..... This is the entry point for E-readers and Tablets....
I ordered a couple for my family. We have the older kindles and it looks like a worthy upgrade.
I ordered one and the new $79 kindle as well. Cannot wait.
I preordered a few days ago. I still have not been charged for it yet.
And I have preordered things from amazon before. They don't charge until the day it ships.
As per usual the U.K has to play the waiting game and will probably be 40% more expensive when it eventually gets here...... Grrrr

WTF ATT!!

So I got my phone today and low and behold I have some serious (at least to me) blemishes and scratches on the back. Some pics below. I know they may not seem too bad but come on, this is a brand new phone, and unexceptable if you ask me. So I actually go to my nearby ATT store to see if they have stock already so they can swap it out and they don't have any yet. You could see it in the eyes of the workers that they hadn't seen one yet. Borderline oogling over it.
Anyways, they say call ATT and they'll send me another. I call and low and behold they CAN send me a replacement (not overnight mind you, I'd have to pay for that), but as I had to remind them, there is a backorder for it so they couldn't tell me when I'd get it. All this time I wouldn't be able to activate the phone. I say screw it, I'll keep it but you gotta give me something here. All they can do open a customer credit report and see if it goes through. Suffice it to say.....I'm pissed.

Yeah this is a total case of WTF. Must have happened in the flashing process when they added all their carrier crap.
Wow. Was it shipped in bag full of rocks?
Thats how mine is from GPlay! Not as bad as yours but the same type of marks.... Seems like it was slid around and there was a bunch of dust/debris in the box on the phone.. I called them up right after I saw and they were gonna set me up with a new replacement but there is a problem with there system with that apparently...:roll eyes: So I have to wait for them to fix that then get in contact with me to set up the replacement... Im using this one in a case in the mean time but it definitely shouldn't fly to get one that looks this way!
Looks like someone was skate boarding on it before shipping. Lol I would return it. There is no fu#king way I pay over $700 for a screwed up phone.
Probably happened while they were tattooing that sweetass globe on the bottom. Well worth the sacrifice, IMO.

Hahaha this comment had me rollin as well. Sorry about your phone OP. Hopefully they give you some type of credit or something.
That valiant phone fought tooth and nail and tried to resist being tramp stamped. In the end the handset torturers won

How is that AT&T's fault? Lol.
"A Lenovo company..."
I would try blast them Motorola and ATT on social media. No way you fork over that much cash money for A defectove unit. I also suggest you QC the camera carefully. It may have got the lense.
Motorola QC issue.
I was at my tmobile store when they unboxed their demo unit and it had the same nonsense. We considered that maybe they just purposely sent the ****ty ones to stores for demo purposes. Hope this is not a widespread issue
That's what you get for purchasing a phone from the devil.

They would have touched it last when flashing their splash screenand doing the logo on the back. But a previous commenter said his gplay device was the same. I would look at how the phone fits in the retail packaging. Does it have room to move around at all, is what i would be looking at.

I think it has some room to move because there doesn't seem to be anything keeping it in place or anything protective it has to sit on. Its just sitting on indent of the phone with the documentation. I think it happened during shipping possibly especially if it was man handled it could bounce around and scuff up but idk? i don't see how sliding on cardboard could cause marks like that.
Im also still waiting on Gplay to reply and fix there system to get me a new replacement...
Did you have any issues getting AT&T to initiate the return? This is ridiculous, mine has this too.

AT&T wouldn't have done it themselves, just semantically speaking.
They would have made a deal with the OEM (Motorola) to make the modifications on their behalf before packaging.
Not defending AT&T or anything, of course.
