Developer Edition - Available April 19th

[Jesus Martin1]

Also called and got the same yay :d!

called in again today and this time they refunded my overnight shipping fee, gave me free overnight shipping and gave me the free flip cover type case. Happy happy!

If anyone is still interested in using the coupon for the free case and overnight shipping..
i was able to use the Live chat function on letstalk.com and have them added to my order in 2 min.. didnt have to wait on the phone..

Also was told that the One is scheduled to be release for shipping on the 18th..

How do you get the code? I entered my email address in a few different HTC get notified web pages over the last couple of months but have never received anything. I have a developers edition on order and would love to get my $18 overnight fee credited (don't care much about the double-dip case though, would rather have that folding one).

[edit] I take that back; I got the email from HTC telling me I could pre-order my HTC One at htc.com but it doesn't have anything about a promo code for free shipping or a case.

Thanks

You can get the folding case for free if you want. You get to choose. I got the folding one for my wife... ill be going naked thank you very much.

so..the "backordered" doesn't mean anything right? and we still get the phone by 18 or 19?

Backordered just means it's not available for them to ship to you right now. The lady I spoke with today confirmed that. Said they got a lot of calls from people freaking out when they saw backordered.. It will change once they are able to ship out..and the plan is for them to ship by the 18th. If you have overnight you should get it on the 19th for sure.

Mine just changed from availability of 4/10/13 to 4/24/13. I really hope it isn't back ordered past the 19th. I will contact customer service today and see what they say. Anyone else have their back order availability date changed?

 

[deng66]

Yep. Mine changed to 4/20/13. Based on the thread over at xda, most everyone is seeing this which leads me to believe it's either nothing to worry about or a massive fustercluck :-!

Mine did too. But I ordered the 32gb one. It now shows shipping on the 24th. I ordered it on friday. I want the phone but I'm not gonna play the backordered game. I'll call them in a few and see whats up.

Same here... my developer edition changed availability to 4/24/13!!! What is going on???

My 64gb model changed to 4/24 estimated availability !! AT&T stores should have them in stock on the 19th for $650. I wanted it unlocked for OS updates, but if it's delayed I'll just get one Friday at a local store! Let'sTalk better get this straight!

Lol do that and you'll regret the 5 days of not waiting for 2 years of you life. Just wait for what u want. It's obvious a lot of people wanted the dev edition, hell its sold out already.

Edit. Mine says 4/20

Does anyone know if HTC will ship to Canada?

Also, just double checking, these unlocked models will work on the Canadian carriers? I am not too familiar with the frequency incompatibilities. (ie. Rogers more specifically)

Excited to get my hands on one! Pun slightly intended

Mine now says 4/20 as well. I'm inclined to believe they wouldn't add ship/delivery dates back to the order status page if they weren't accurate.

That said, it looks like my bank is seeing the charge for the phone post. Most retailers don't hit you for payment until the device ships so who knows.

Anyone call yet to see what the 4/20 date is all about? I thought they were shipping on 4/18

 

[maverick96]

I also was charged already.

 

[paparis13]

So i just talked to HTC rep to clarify the 4/24 availability, and they said they have no idea why this is other than high demand. They then just referred me to letstalk, and have been waiting on hold for 15mins so far. How can HTC not be aware when you order it from their website!! Yes, i understand that they use letstalk, but its still initially through their site!.
If I don't receive phone before 4/26 (date for HTC trade up), will i not be eligible for the $100?

Mine changed to 4/20 as well. Still expecting it to ship by the 18th though. I think they just pushed it back to 4/20 so they didn't have to keep updating it every day between now and then.

That's wishful thinking. Also, they had already put everyone's orders into "backordered" status so they hadn't been updating anything daily.

It's not exactly sold out -- just out of stock. The notation says it will be restocked on the 24th. I realize HTC says the Developer edition will be released in "limited quantities" but I'm guessing they'll up that limit if they sell well enough--and it seems to be selling quite briskly.
