Help from the American - One (M8) Accessories

Hello,
I'm living in Israel, I don't know why but this case just caught me http://www.verizonwireless.com/acce...r-the-all-new-htc-one-m8-black-blue-geometic/ . Since im not a US citizen, i can't purchase it (beleive me, i've tried like 6 times).
Im willing to pay 40$ by paypal for someone to buy the case online for me and send it ouy to an address I have in the US (the case itself cost 34.95)
Can someone please help me? Incipio have tons of ugly case worldwide, but the only case who actually looks nice is verizon exclusive.

That is a good looking case. Very bold and yet still refined at the same time. I'd love to help you but I no longer have Paypal after one to many screw ups on their end. Otherwise I'd help you out right now. Sorry.
Good luck though. I'm sure there is someone here that'll help. Tons of really people on the forums.

I don't get it!
If you do have an address in the US wouldn't it be easy just ordering it yourself and have Verizon send it to that address?
to purchase it and send it within the U.S.
you don't have to prove you're american or not.

Why not use bundlebox? Look here
I am from Germany and it works flawless.
Edit: Oops, just saw that it is a matter of payment - sorry. If it only would be a question of shipping, my link would help.

Can you tell which credit card have you used? or you have an regular american one?

I will help you. PM me.

I've decided to give up right now, i've bought the htc double dip, if i don't like it i'll try again. thanks

Sprint HTC One for $149 (Upgrade or New)

Hey Guys,
through a corporate partnership that my company has, I have access to pre Order the Sprint HTC One for $149. This price is good for New and existing customers.
MOD EDIT: Link removed
I am pretty excited about this phone and have been waiting to pre order to upgrade my Evo 3D. Just thought I would share with my friends on XDA.
Thank you.
np, always glad to share.
thank you.
is this for new customer only? or will it work with existing customer upgrade / contract extension?
Worked for me as an upgrade/contract extension.
New contracts or Contract extensions. I think the only difference is it's free shipping for new people, and $9.99 S/H for contract extensions.
It's $99 dollars through sprint but of course they don't have black for sale yet. I would think if the official sprint doesn't have black in time for the 19th that this site won't either.

$99 sale is only for new lines ported over the Sprint, though. Doesn't work for upgrades.

As much as I wish it was for everyone. Friggin' Sprint. Every vendor is offering some sort of incentive EXCEPT Sprint!
Wish I had seen this before I went in to preorder at Best Buy. I wonder if they'll price match.

Does the IBO number discount off contract phones?
Sorry, I realise you're offering a deal, but selling is not allowed on XDA.

[Q] Where to buy the Dev Edition?

Hello, I live in Argentina and I'm travelling in 2 weeks to the US, I wanted to buy the Dev Edition HTC One, so I got into the US HTC Online Store and bought it ( $654.94 ). Today I received an email telling me the order was cancelled. Asked why and they told me because my IP address was from outside the US and I needed a US credit card. I fought for a long time with the support and they told me I couldn't buy it.
Now I'm wondering where else I can buy the Dev Edition HTC One 64Gb and don't end up paying almost $900 for it.

You can only purchase the dev edition through the online shop with a US credit card and address. Without them, HTC would not accept your order.

I have the US address, but my credit card is international, I don't really understand why they don't let international credit cards buy phones.
Also, do you know of another way of obtaining the Dev Edition that it's not eBay (since I can't confirm my PayPal account and have the 500 dollars limit). Thanks for your data!
You could probably use some package forwarding company, such as comgateway, myus, and choose the 'buy for me' service.
The total cost including shipments should be under or nearly US$800.

Why would I need a package forwarding company? I have the address, but I need to find the way to buy it using my international credit card, any ideas? Thanks for response!
I understand your concern. However, HTC online shop accepts ONLY a US credit card. They would cancel your order if you were using an international one.
If you really want to get the dev edition, that's the only way apart from eBay. Even the retail stores, they only sell the 32GB version.

I want the Developer Edition just because of the 64Gb of storage. I've contacted Shopamerica.htc.com and I'll wait for them to answer if there's ANY chance of doing it with an international or I guess I'll just have to ask an aunt I have in the US to buy me the phone with her credit card and I'll find a way to transfer her the money. Really appreciate your responses! Thanks a lot man!
You're welcome. I hope this information will be useful to you.
if you have an address in the USA do you happen to have someone you know in there? maybe borrow credit card of somone who lives in USA and you pay them directly

Since they've subtracted the $654.94 and then refunded it to me, my aunt will try to buy it using my international credit card and check if the credit card was the initial problem or just the IP address.
Also, do someone know an online way to give her the money or to deposit that it's effective?

Thought about that but in my country we have another currency. If I buy something in dollars from eBay, I pay it in Pesos Argentinos and (I don't know if it's PayPal or the credit card bank) changes to US dollars.. I wonder if there's a way I can do that but without her having a PayPal account.

[Q] US Celluar Nexus 6 locked?

noticed US Celluar finally started selling all versions of Nexus 6 in both colors, anyone know if these are locked to US Celluar or can we work around this, especially since they offer prepaid where you can just buy phone outright(for a little bit more $ though)
I am thinking of giving it a try...
Don't know when I may get my 64gb from T-mobile... already have a 32gb.... I guess if it doesn't I can just return within 15-days... thinking of doing it....:good:

Don't know how to confirm...
in the comments of the article below.... this is the only shred of evidence that it may not be... however they checked with a US Cellular CSR... so no telling if they were just reading a stock answer or what... someone physically doing the SIM swap would have to confirm as I am not confident... The other factor to is that it may work going to say t-mobile or att and not sprint or verizon or even vice versa... really need one in hand to test...

So just to re-clarify the Nexus 6 purchased outright from US Cellular is unlocked, free of any carrier branding (on the actual phone and in regards to software)? It is the same as a Google Play ordered phone, correct?
Confirmed 2 Sources

Yes this is the second source that has confirmed this... (found confirmation on Nexus 6 reddit sight as well by a user) however there are things to consider:
1. You have to live in a US Cellular area to buy over the phone or online outright. Billing address & shipping address must be in US Cellular Coverage Area
2. If you address is not in a coverage area, then you must go to the closest US Cellular Store to buy if they are carrying it in that store... for me its 2 hours away so I doubt I will do it at this point... still considering it over the weekend. This also means that they must let you buy it outright as I heard you can hit a roadblock if they just don't want to sell it to you.
Good Luck Anyone Trying... I am going to try to confirm the stock at the nearest store to me... Doubt they have the magic white elephant (64GB in White):silly:
Called my Closest Us Cellular Store.... Tell me you haven't heard this before... None in-store, insufficient quantities at launch, stores won't have them for awhile.....:crying:
I've got mine and I'm on US Cellular. Got it on the 10th. I was the first person to ask because they didn't even know if yet had it yet. Just be persistent about asking if they have it. They had to go look in the back to see if they had it. I'm not sure about it being carrier locked because I don't have a reason for switching...
Nexus 6
Can anyone with a US Cellular Nexus 6 confirm that the phone is SIM unlocked? If so, is this true even if the phone was purchased with a 2 yr contract subsidy? Thanks for your help!

no lte on at&t

Hi. Just wondering if anyone knows of a fix. Traded my v20 for this op3t and I'm more than happy so far, but all I'm getting is hspa+ for data. Called att and they said they needed to make a case to get LTE enabled.
Anything I can do to enable it myself?

Hey I have LTE on my op3t, that's weird maybe some network settings
Its an att issue with unlocked non att phones. If you tell them its an official att phone from your past LTE will work fine. As long as you have the correct US version and not the international or Chinese version.
My LTE on H2O(att) is amazingly fast. But they have no idea what phone im using because they never ask

Hopefully you got it new from OnePlus and not from amazon or ebay or swappa. The LTE issue is probably just a nice benefit att offers its customers to keep you buying phones with att logos on them. Just tell them you went back to your old att phone and LTE will probably start working perfectly again.

My gut was right. The guy was a scam and swappa was extremely unhelpful. Took them forever to shut the guy down no matter how much evidence they had he was a scammer! Anyone know anyone who wants to do a story about how shady swappa is? I have so many screenshots and messages and saved web pages before they erased my messages. First and last time using swappa for sure

That's terrible. Sorry to hear it. My issue is resolved. Swappa was super fast to refund my $15 fee, and PayPal was quick to refund me. Ordered my 128 gb op3t from oneplus website last night. Should be here Thursday. Thought about holding out for the oneplus 5, but I didn't want to wait.
I also noticed that they just made separate listings for the different op3t models. Hopefully nobody else has to go through what I did.

You can get a device in Mexico, and it would be a 950F Exynos with 128 GB, if you get it from official sources, color options are black and orchid gray
if you travel a lot then maybe a dual sim could be handy, if you got it in Europe you would have the 24 months warranty, got my dual sim on amazon uk but I know that Denmark only sell Dual-Sim models
