The woman I spoke to from T-Mobile on the phone came out with a funny line.
In a ditzy voice: "I just dunno why this phone is being so popular!
Me: "Well, it's got a fantastic spec for the price.."
Her: "Nahhh, I reckon it's just because its called Desire... it'll make people want it!"

OMFG LOL
I should say I also managed to get them to drop the price to about 86 quid or so on the 20 quid a month contract... Im rather chuffed really
The guy i spoke to today did say that they where nearly out of stock already and said I was lucky to call when i did.
As for reviews... not sure ill be any good there. This is my first Android phone. But I can always say how much i love it when i start playing with it...

Mine's on its way too. Tomorrow this forum will be quiet, because everyone will be playing with their new phones

Mines on its way hopefully i will get mine tomorrow.

Please Upload your unboxing Pics

Bit late for that i unboxed it while in bed this morning
its beautiful. Sreens a finger print magnet but oh well
Oh I am having one issue, I put in the Tmobile sim. And several times now i get an alert saying Message could not be downloaded. Generic network error, or something like that.
Anyone else getting that?

Nope, mine's working just fine with T-Mobile UK SIM.

Where to buy?

Hey, I was just wondering where to buy this phone on contract.
I see many people have it and I really want it on contract.
Its on www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk but is that website trusted?
Thanks, Chris
As far as I'm aware, they've been around for quite some time, so I certainly don't think there's any issue of them being some didgy company if that's what you're worried about.
I do know that they've got limited stock at the moment, although they seem to be getting new deliveries fairly quickly. They're not too easy to get hold of on the phone, and can take a while to respond by email (my guess is they're slammed with demand for the TP2 as they seem to be the only place at the moment to get one on contract).
I had some issues on Friday ordering from them so ended up cancelling, but they emailed this morning to apologise about the mixups, and I had a very helpful guy who's trying to get me one out pdq so fingers crossed.
If you want it on contract, and you want it now, then as far as I'm aware, they are your only option. Others on here have already had TP2 delivered from MPD so they will get you one, there might just be a couple of days delay.
Sweet, thanks.
I think I might just have to purchase one soon then. See, I really need a new phone. I did have an LG viewty which absolutely sucked and wasn't working so I threw it at a concrete floor and the screen went blank and doesn't show anything so now I'm stuck with a SE W810i and it's torture ;o
So yeh, Thanks, Chris

Thanks
Just to clarify... bought my TP2 on mobilephonesdirect.co.uk a week ago... it's sweet as a nut!

Phones4u selling HTC titan

Hi guys just wanted to share my experience with HTC titan. I went into the phones4u store in Basingstoke today and caught a glimpse of a demo unit being shown to a customer. When I asked to look at it I was sat down and asked plenty of questions about my contract. When being asked my name in a store I get a little uneasy... When asked for my phone number when I just want go have a look at a phone I fond it a little annoying. I did say to the girl I just wanted to look at it. She brought her manager over and he indicated the reason they ask the questions is incase i run off with the phone! Lol. I said i should not need to give my number just to look at the device and told him not to bother. I might have been the lucky new owner of a titan! Not today though!
I would plead with anyone in the UK not to bother with phones4u if you can help it. I felt very unwelcome and wish i had never gone in. I would also ask that

I could not read what I was writing. Using omnia 7 on xda app. It would not scroll down.
Continued: if anyone from HTC reads this please don't give phones4u exclusives if they treat their customers in this manner. After all in not going to buy a phone if i can't have a look at it!!
The glimpse from 6ft I did see it looked very nice !

I've totally agree with you. I have only been into a phone4u shop once and I don't think I ever will again. I found them quite rude and unprofessional. My first impression of the staff was chavs! They looked and dressed like the kids you see hanging around the spar shop at night.
I wouldn't trust them personally. Instead I've been using my local o2 shop for many years, mainly because its always a good experience!
Funny you mention it. I called a local store sometime this afternoon about it. They confirmed its availability, but were quick to ask my name. It was a rather strange feeling. Of course, I didn't. Apparently, they only have it on contract ATM and wanted an unlocked version anyways, so I could escape without them asking for my mother's maiden name.
thats what you folks get for doing all of that rioting over there lol
I went to Birmingham Phones4u today with intentions of picking up a TITAN.
The people who greeted me were VERY nice, the first phones they showed me, without me asking questions were the RADAR and TITAN.
I sat down and was told I would pay £33 a month for the TITAN and £9.99 for insurance.
I was fine with that, then 20mins later, they offered me the same deal for £31 p/m and £7.99 for insurance and a free accessory pack
I had a successful day

Unusual for them to be selling locked phones, usually they are sim free they just bundle the contract with the handset
They are unlocked from phones4u. I'm debating buying on eBay from ecell they are only£415 that and a giftgaff sim works out the same as 24 month contract. I just want to hold one and see if its too big. Anyway.. Post was phones4u related and i certainly won't be going back.

If you have ever held a HD7 then the titan would feel very similiar. I went to Phones4U yesterday and requested to see the Titan.. He sat me down and went to pick it up. Fresh out of the box, never turned on. I held it in my hand whilst Brian told me about HTC and his contracts and selling me stuff.
Excellent phone, much better than the HD7. Brighter, and much better build quality. I want one now!
He also took my name and phone number down, and asked me things like with who I am now and stuff..
I might pick one up. But not sure if I should go with phones4u.
So all in all I don't think they are very bad at phones4u. I went to the leading newest store in manchester and Brian was quite frendly.
If they will start phoning me now than I will tell them where to stick it!
One issue though is that they still try to sell me their androids phones. WTF?? I went in there for the titan. And yet he tried to shove me a sensation down my throat. Discusting!
The titan screen is almost half an inch bigger than the HD7. Similar is subjective. It's a bigger phone. If I want something that big, I'll wait and see if the Galaxy Note comes here, otherwise I'll see what comes to T-Mobile though I may be moving for work so a carrier change may be in order.
I can't do CDMA, though. No Simultaneous V&D rules Verizon and Sprint out for me.

I've been watching ecells listing too. 4 sold, 19 more available. The only reason I haven't bought this yet, Samsung and Nokia. If there weren't any rumors about an Omnia S and Nokia announced their line-up already! I hadn't heard about giffgaff but now! Unlimited internet for £10? Checking it out now!
Why Wont Anyone Upload Pictures Or Videos!!!
Gawd I'm so giddy.
Attached is a panorama mode picture I was sent from twitter.
That photo is very very nice. Thanks for posting. I was thinking about the Samsung and Nokia options too. Thing is I guess much like the first gen phones the specs of all the devices is going to be very similar. I have a couple preferences like large battery and super amoled plus but really I think the titan will stack up well against anything due for release in the next few months..
For those with the titan can you let me know if the speaker matches the omnia7's? Historically HTC speakers are very tinny. The hd7's was very very quiet too.
Thanks

OK, I take it back. Went to the store today and the folk were REALLY nice. Had a tour with the device. The screen is awesome sharp, no pixelation obvious. The black levels aren't as great as amoled screens, but not so bad really. Ordered one already!

And they are kept scamming every couple minutes, making me unfollow in an hour
I ended up canceling from them due to their dodgy behaviour... voiding/canceling coupons, requesting more money... saying that everyone has paid up but me, but then in their blog it says people need to pay up... whatever.
I ordered from Expansys and I already got a shipping number and Fedex says its on the truck.

Share your Verizon Store "Waiting in Line" stories.

This is the first time I've ever stood in line for anything. Had it not been for the state of my Droid, I would have ordered online. But it was kind of exciting in a geeky sort of way.
There were about 15 people at the store at 8:30 waiting to get their hands on a Nexus. Everyone was in their cars until about 8:50, then one guy opened his car door and the race was on. I was third in line.
Most people stood there in silence waiting for the door to open, while a few of us chatted about the phone and kvetched about VZW's handling of the launch. As they were about to unlock the door, a guy pulled up and as he was walking to the back of the line, I asked him "So, are you here for the iPhone 4S, too??" Laughter ensued, and then they let the first five of us in to claim our unicorns.
This phone is every bit worth they hype, by the way.
The exact same thing happened to me (the timing) but because it's sort of cold in South Dakota in December they let us wait inside as soon as we started a line.

Dang. Oh, well. I used my last "New every two" update for this, so I actually walked out with the phone and a pack of screen protectors for a little over $250 with tax.
There weren't a lot of people at my Verizon store. But I was there at about 8:30 and some old grandpa got there right after me. He proceded to walk to the door and stand there till 9. Me and my girlfriend were making fun of him because he was the only one standing there. Everyone else was in their cars waiting.
When 8:50 rolled around we all walked to the door and the old guy said, "So you are here for the Nexus too?" I was super surprised because it's not often that you see an old person that is up on the latest tech. I felt so bad for stereotyping him....
We had at least 30 people in the store by the time I was checked out. They ended up telling people they ran out by the time I was walking out the door. I'm shocked.
some funny stories, wish I had my own. I will be going by later today to look at the phone. Not that im not completely sold. I just like to touch it and play with it before I pay for it. Also i usually wait a week to 10 days after release to buy a phone. I don't know if that means I am just old school. Also im kinda disappointed in the pricing structures as I am out of contract and want this phone and avail for upgrade, and it seems new lines are getting the best pricing. I was kinda thinking being with VZW for 10 yrs and putting up with all their **** should give me some sort of better discount. Oh well, I forgot the last time I paid for a phone (lg dare, droid inc, and DX all free) I will work my magic after xmas provided vzw doesnt do anything stupid between now and then
There was fifteen or so people waiting for the nexus I made the comment I feel like an isheep everyone laughed except the guy who told me he had iPhone oh well

Walked in. said I was getting a new phone. They asked which one and I said "The Nexus". Their response was, we never got our shipment in. I almost jumped over the desk and beat someone half to death. They were just joking and it took me all of 10 minutes to get everything going and out the door.
I was talking with them about the wonderful release, and they were pretty upset since the official notice for release didn't come out til 5 yesterday. They said they had to call in a few people that had the day off.
Got mine, many didn't.
So, I was in line at 9:45. The manager of this store had one set aside for me, but I didn't want to chance waiting until later. There were about 40 people there for the gnex. By 10:30 I was out the the door and they were turning people away, calling other stores to see if they had any in stock. The manager said they got around 40. The phone is sweet. Haven't rooted yet, at work, but this was worth the wait.
I was fourth in line at 830. There were 20 people behind me. When we went inside at 9 they were not prepared at all. Only 3 employees there. They didn't even find the phone until 910!! The guy told me that they didn't even know it was launching today until he pulled up and saw the line! I joked with the people in line though telling them we were a there for the whit razr. The Verizon rep then said, "there is a white razor?"... it was sad

Wow... It's times like these I realize how "techless" this place is... (Indiana)
City of ~200,000 people and I was at Radio Shack at 9:15am to find out they open at 10:00am (wtf?) so I went to a Verizon store next door. They had been open and one older lady was in there getting a feature phone. I asked if they had any Nexuses and he said "Yea, they are $249". I told him I was going to wait and see how much they were at the Shack so I left. Stopped in at a different Shack at 10 and no one was there but the manager. He said they would have some in today. I left for another Verizon store (non corporate) and there was one girl in there with a Droid. Nexuses were coming in later that day.
Finally stopped in at another Verizon store that had been open for over an hour and I was the only one there. I asked about the Nexus and he said "Yea we got some - you are the first one to ask about them".
I was there for an hour and ONE other guy came in and bought one.
5 stores, 3 hours - 2 Nexuses sold...
Went to the store in Centennial, CO around 9:10AM and was helped immediately. There were only 4 people in the store, two of whom were buying a Nexus, 3 including me. I got mine activated and walked out.
This is one plus to living in Gods waiting room. Here in SWFL (3/4 of a million people) and I was in one of the main corporate stores 15 minutes after opening. A guy was at the counter getting his Nexus, I got the second one and no one else came in while I was there. I'm perfectly happy for all the old folks down here to not get 4g phones, keeps it nice and open for the rest of us.

S3 Tmobile brand new robbed on craigslist

Hello, pls see my story below: - Anything I can do by tracking the IMEI ? etc ?
MY STORY -------
I was robbed on craigslist, NYC MIDTOWN?
To sum it up:
I was robbed by a con artist on craigslist pretending to buy my phone.
I sold many things on craigslist in the past, high end and small end. Whatever..
I posted an ad to sell my Samsung galaxt s3 tmobile phone for $540, and the buyer called with 1 number and ask if Its available and that his wife saw the ad and hes buying it for her. Then he asks me if I’m a business and I said no. Then he said he will call me back and I said ok.
He called again in a few minutes and said hes interested and asked my location and he will be coming so I said ok , I gave him location, on park avenue and 58th street at TD BANK. When he got there he was driving was in his car so I got him to show him the phone.
He asked nicely if I can just go with him to tmobile store around the area to make sure the phone is not stolen so I said okay sure. Its 2-3 blocks away. We was driving and he was telling me this whole store how he and his daughter went to check out a phone and after he bought it the phone turns out to be stolen and it took him a week to return it back to the seller and such and he thanked me for going with him to the store.
Finally, we parked RIGHT in front of the tmobile store by a fire hydrant. He asked if I can watch his car while he goes in to make sure its legit and to activate his simcard for the phone so I said ok pls make it quick. He went in for a few minutes and I was wondering what if this car is stolen ? or he ran away ? anyways so I took a peak and saw him on the line and speaking to the representative so I thought okay its cool. He came out and said something is not working and if I could go and talk to her, so I can ok.
I was in the passenger seat , now the keys are in the car. He ask if I can turn off the car so I turn it off and I took the keys with me when he said he needs to get something real quick and go in first, I went in for less than a minute. LESS THAN A MINUTE OR 1 MINUTE!!! Then I turned around and POOF!
HE IS GONE…. HE IS GONE!! I got scammed and wow, I was shocked and laughing.. I tried running up the block but his car is nowhere to be found!
I called the cops and gave a report, waiting for a call back from the detectives hopefully.
I have received a call back from 1 of his numbers he called me with , and it was lady claiming she don’t know what happen. I have a feeling she is linked to him, I don’t know.
What should I do now ? What can I do ? I want to catch this sucker!
His appearance:
Age 19-25
Skin: Dark / Tone
Nationality: Hispanic Hair: Curly hair Attire:
He was dressed in a white button up with dress dark khankis or dress pants and shoes
. ( his attire indeed let my guard down )
Tattoo: He had a tattoo on his right hand
Name he goes by: Andy , Jason , Alex , Alec -
His accent is a bit weird.
Numbers he is using: 917-549-9112 347-340-6348
these other numbers were called from a phone store with demo phones or something: 718-733-7119 646-296-3081

Another victim's story, happened before I got robbed-
Has anyone gone through this? I got robbed on craigslist?
Postby hawly » Tue Aug 28, 2012 3:20 pm
Ok here's how this went. I was selling a samsung galaxy s III (for about $500) on craigslist. I live in queens, NYC, so I arranged for the exchange in midtown manhattan. I drove there with my bro and parked my car in a parking lot. The guy who i was selling to, arrived in a family van with his 2 year old daughter. He wanted me to drive down the street to the "Fossil" store where his "wife" worked at as she was "the one he was buying the phone for". Seeing his daughter, his demeanor, as well as the fact that we were in a heavily populated area, I thought nothing of it. He seemed like a reasonable person.
We get to the fossil store, he asks me if I can go to the driver's seat as he goes into the store to speak to his "wife" in case cops request for the car to be moved. At this point, his 2 yr old daughter and I are in the car alone. He asks me if I can give him the phone so that his wife can test it out. I say fine as I have his car and his kid is in the car. He comes back later and says he's having a problem testing out the phone. He asks me If I can check it out. I say no problem, I step out of the car, turn off the car and hold the keys with me (the keys also included 4 other keys). All of a sudden, he disappears literally into thin air. I take a few steps to look around. This is 7th ave manhattan, so there's alot of people walking up and down. I then turn around, and boom...car is gone. All happened within 1 minute. Literally, 1 Minute. I literally started laughing in amazement.
I am not one to get scammed..very rarely have i been in a fraud situation. I've seen everything...but This.
How could a guy use an innocent little kid to scam people? Is this a new Craigslist scam? I am being reimbursed for the phone by my credit card company as they cover theft. What do you take of this?
is this for real?

Yes.
I know it might look confusing and have typos and such but I am so heated and still cant believe I was conned like that. Its just shocking!
I went to the precinct on my lunch break to give the cops more details and that other post I found a day earlier of my incident indicating the same pattern of crime.
Its the same guy!!
new member first posts sounds weird but still it was a entertaining read whether real or fake
why would you let him out of 2 feet if he has your phone, you let this happen to yourself learn a lesson from it
this is a reason why I never sell phones on Craiglist, I always sell them on Ebay is more secured and no way for you to get scammed, I have seen a couple of friends that actually sold their phones and got fake $100.00 dollar bills, with Ebay you get backed up by paypal.
Sounds like some next level ninja sh!t, I hope by some strain of luck you get your S3 back.

if a customer on ebay, insists to their credit card that they did not purchase the item. I think they can get away with it just as easy like how this happened to me, however this guy took a lot of time to develop his scheme..

If you still have the box that you got the phone in you can ask T-Mobile to block the IMEI. That way it's useless to him.

You morons need to stop being so cheap and use ebay and just pay the damn auction fees. That is why they guarantee their buyer and seller protection.
Now you don't have a phone, I would never trust Craigslist for selling or buying anything.
Also why would you get into a car with a stranger? Why not just say go park and I will meet you at the store?

Ask T-Mobile or Samsung if they can track

CRAIGS LIST IS WHERE THE PROCESSED GO TO MINGLE. It has perverts, murderers, cons, and thiefs, and much more crime that you have never even heard of. STAY AWAY from that worthless site.
You got some real balls to get in a strangers car anyway, you are lucky you are here even posting this stupid message.
Good luck, cost you $500+ to find out.

What? It's common sense. If I'm selling on CL the person doesn't even get to touch the phone unless they're in the middle of me and a friend on the street or sitting down inside somewhere.

That's why you meet up and it's either buy it on the spot or go buy else where. No taking it to show his "wife" bull****
Craigslist - Not even once.
lol... wow... I've sold tons of phones on cl. Never this happened to me. But then again I live in Virginia, where its legal to open carry a gun. And anytime I have a item for sale and someone wants to buy it, when we meet up they always notice that I'm not one to scam or rob.
