Where can i buy Rhodium without Contract in UK. I buy HTC touch HD without contract at Carphone before but just wonder if i can buy Rhodium there too ^^. My house is quite far from it so i dont have time to go there to ask -_-
Not sure where the best buy is at the moment
Check places like Devicewire, Expansys, Clove, and Handtec I suspect they will be cheaper than Carphone Warehouse. There was a thread here about prices, but not sure if it's still active.
Good Luck!

Hit google with the UK only radio button. There's 1000+1 places to buy from. I got mine from launch at Amazon.co.uk
The good things from carphone is u can go there to check if there is something like dead pixel on the fone before make decisions.
Last time when i bought my HD there it took me only 450 GBP for the fone while i checked at clove it was around 500 GBP -_-.
#3: I know how to search man -_-
Try eBay.
oh man ebay is not different from the other online site. If u buy it and u get smt like dead pixel on the screen u have to send it back -_-
I got mine from http://www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk/ £434 on voda pay2go. For some reason it was cheaper than simfree. Phone is not branded or locked as using with my 3 sim.
That's a pretty good deal from mpd ... only problem I'd have with buying from them is that I've heard nightmare stories about people having probs with the phone, and mpd won't have anything to do with them...
For Sale Touch Pro 2 - Vodafone Branded
I currently got a touch pro 2 on vodafone as an upgrade but the wife had already bought me one offline.
So it is up for grabs for £375 plus £5.00 to cover royal mail registered post.
cash to be paid ia bank transfer or paypal. If paypal used then buyer to pay paypal charges.
How about handtech which advertise on xda forum. I found it quite cheap only 438 with simfree
the problem with a lot of uk sites these days is their quality control. i always buy sim free and hate it when the "new" phone arrives in an opened box, factory screen protector half off etc.. they do a **** job of putting it all back in the box after "checking contents".
i used to buy from Play but their prices aren't competitve any more and no confirmed despatch date.
try King of Gadgets. all their stuff is factory sealed and there's a really good bloke over the phone who wont muck you about.
good luck.

Thank u very much ^^ . And about handtec ? Do u have any info about them ?
no experience sorry. but I'm always weary of low prices. I think with them you still have to pay a fair amount for next day delivery. over the last few years I've learnt the hard way there's no such thing as a bargain
i've just chatted with them online and they told me that i don't have to pay any fee for nextday delivery but the problem for the dead pixel is. HTC only accepts to replace fone with more than 3 deadpixels -_- .
Handtec sell brand new and sealed phones but they are gray imports meaning no automatic network settings and detection and probably some warranty issues. This was the experience I had when I bought a Kaiser from them and when I returned it and asked for a UK spec, they simply sent the same phone back to me in a UK spec box (lol). I returned it and did a charge back when they started trying to act funny. Devicewire sell UK spec phones at the most competitive prices in my opinion.
Seriously boss. You can buy from anyone of these sellers and if you're not happy, dead pixel or otherwise then you can send it back with no obligation citing distance selling act. The common vendors like expansys, amazon etc are all good for it. Pick someone whom you trust and pull the trigger!
thank you very much. Maybe i will try with clove.co.uk kkkk

Why is it not under warranty may I ask?
bcos i am in Qatar, and i was so frustrated so i opend the back panel and take out mother board and cleaned it with alchohel.My phone is still working but it is still rebooting on due to over heat.If you know the place where i can get the new board pls let me know..
I am in similar situation as yours. Random reboots and no warranty. I asked the local HTC service, and they told me they currently don't have any in stock, but are expecting them. When I asked about the approximate price, he said it will probably be 70-80% of the price of a new device. So, this sucks for both of us
I am thinking to use this device as little as possible, for as longest as possible, and then buy a new one from another manufacturer. I lost trust at HTC, this is my second HTC device - second one with huge problem.
maybe sell it on ebay, or try trading for something else here on the Marketplace?
worth trying.. at the moment I am trying to sell my Desire.. but no luck £230, anyone? perfect condition! (will ship anywhere!)
hope this helps!
mine is the same case here.. bought it in the UK now I'm in India. Searched on the net only to find it will cost $500, and at that price I can get a brand new Desire S.. So trying to sell it on ebay.. anybody interested?
Maybe try finding a Desire on eBay with a broken screen that you could take the mobo from?
Guessing that would work out cheaper than buying a new motherboard.
Hi!
First of all, I hope I'm in the right forum...
If this is not the right forum for this thread, please move it.
I want to buy a white One X (int.) in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Someone know where I can buy it there? I want a store that will let me open the device, and check there are no build issues, and a low price. (If I'm right, I should get a 16% tax refund because I'm a tourist from outside EU)
Thanks for helpers!
The phonehouse should have unbranded phones and proper DOA services, but they are expensive...
i got lost in there site... didn't find the one x on the search.
someone knows more stores?
if you are staying in Amsterdam for a few days, order it online. there aren't many shops with the hox in stock except maybe as mentioned the phonehouse but they are expensive. I ordered mine from midi media, cheapest in the Netherlands (only e513 including delivery) but the phone is Vodafone branded .
check this site: http://tweakers.net/pricewatch/
i would be there for only 3 days.
but it will be in 2 month, you don't think it will be in stock?
EDIT: does midimedia has a store in Amsterdam? if so, what is it? (i cant read their site, and google translate dont want to translate it )

I went looking for one this week and the shops I wanted to buy from (ie. were not much more expensive than the best internet deals) did not have any in stock. Maybe you can place an order and check out the phone. I can recommend mycom, I bought many product from them, tried them out, decided I did not like those products and got my money back without hassles (even after opening all the packaging)

i cant order from the internet to israel, because when it will get here ill have to pay at least 16% tax.
and midimedia is much cheaper...
have it delivered to your address in amsterdam
also the new government in holland (already dubbed the butt **** coalition (sorry mods, that's what the new coalition is dubbed)) decided to raise VAT from a whopping 19% to an unbelievable 21% , so you will likely have to pay even more. Why not get the device back home?
(edit: vat probably won't matter a lot because you might get a refund, okay than preorder it from mycom to get it from the store of your choosing)
bought my white One-X at Belcompany in Eindhoven, no problems with the phone, build date 28 march 2012
in the stores, they're always more expansive than online
First of all our vat is currently 19% rather than 16% as mentioned. I got mine from marktplaats.nl (like Craigslist), brand new in an unopened box from a guy that got it with his corporate renewal for €400, not kidding. You'll have to go pick it up at someone's private house though and be prepared for some haggling.
Make sure you call ahead and ask if the seller has the receipt that states the imei. If it doesn't, leave it as it's likely stolen. You might still be able to get the vat back at the port of exit if the receipt is recent enough (most people that get a renewal put the phone on marktplaats the same day they get it). Make sure the receipt doesn't state the buyer's name, which it mostly doesn't.
Good luck. I get all my phones this way, no problems so far. We're a pretty decent and friendly people ;-)

if there is any problem with the device, who gives me the warranty? HTC? i mean if i have yellow spot or something like that, i need to send the device to HTC?
Hi all i think ive bought a duff note 2 my phone has 5gb internal memory,null imei,factory test mode is showing twice on start up,power button when pushed turns off the phone without any options,no imei sticker so all i can find is the serial number using root explorer... i opened up the phone and its missing the flexi cable antenna and has no where for the antenna flex cable to fit on to.. any ideas does anyone know how much a new motherboard would cost and where in the uk i can get one.. also if take this to a samsung repair centre how would i stand
anyone??
Where did you buy it from - give us a link.
And why don't you just return it?
Seriously I think you bought a fake Note (2). There are TONS of MADE IN CHINA copycat phones sold here in HK (most likely online and eBay listings). The exterior looks 95% exact as original Samsungs but when you turn it on, you can tell immediately with the low resolution of the display and the awful looking UI. They should be banning them for being sold....just like those fake LV/Gucci stuff. What a shame.
its deff a genuine note 2 the resolution on the screen is spot on and i can even flash firmwares,roms,root etc i was wondering if i have a prototype note 2 that was used for testing also i got the phone from ebay uk
why don't you just return it?
The person i got it from who was selling it on ebay doesn`t want to know.. this is a pic of the mainboard
pic 2
anymore info about my phone
Call Samsung and offer them their prototype back in exchange for a final release one.
Beamed from Jupiter on my Galaxy Note II
Theres someone else on ebay with the same phone as mine with 5gb internal memory and they are calling it a test model but when i phoned samsung they said they didn`t make test phones for the n7100 confused.com
You need to raise a claim with PayPal/eBay.... But first thing the seller will say is that you have opened the phone and any warranty with them is void
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk (how ironic is that eh)
Did the seller say there was a problem with it?
If not it's not as described and you should raise it with eBay.
How much did you pay for the device?
it was for sale on ebay uk but like a idiot to save on postage i met up half way and swapped my new s3 for it so nothing ebay can do about it. did send the person who had it a message via ebay but he`s not interested..

Sorry for you. I think you have learned an expensive lesson.
once bitten twice shy as they say.. if i could get hold of a logicboard for my n7100 i`d have a perfectly working phone but can`t find one anywhere :crying:
