I believe so ass adding a new line is technically a 2-year agreement.
I actually took this as my upgrade. I'm very excited.

Yeah, I ordered this phone two days ago around 8, woke up the next morning and it was already shipped out.

idk how att works but with tmobile it is always best to purchase an upgrade to the newest phone available. then sell that phone at full price which always is near $500. with that money buy a used HD7S and keep some cash in ur pocket. just a tip, i used to have a little cellphone business on craigslist before the economy went in the pooper.

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.
please use swappa.com with your XDA login if you wish to sell phones.

[Q] Moto X off contract?

I live in USA but do not have social security number because I am a student, (I am not a U.S. citizen) so I can not sign any contracts with carriers. I really want to buy Moto X and use it with AT&T, do you know if they are planning to sell it for full price?

i literally just got back from the ATT store, they wouldn't sell it to me without an ATT account

The regular price is showing $579.99 on AT&T's web site. That is way too much for the phone considering the Nexus 4 is $350 and can be used on T-mobile without any contracts. If you really want this phone then I would say walk into a AT&T store and see what they can do. Even though you don't have a SSN there may be special exemptions for students.

That's really hard to consider Moto X over SGS4 Google Play edition considering the same price, and people say the camera is really bad
Will have to take a look at Moto X in store today

Look at the review samples or even the "photos" thread here in the X general forum.

You can sign the contracts without SSN, all you need to do is pay a $500 security deposit, they will return it to you within a year if you pay your monthly fee on time.

I went into my local AT&T this morning trying to buy one off contract. They couldn't get the transaction to process though so the manager called support and was told that Motorola/Google are not allowing the Moto X to be sold off contract at launch.

Yeah, they told me that they won't sell it off contract for the first month

i bought mine sort of off-contract. but, instead a month-to-month "contract". pretty sure it would be pointless to buy this phone outright from AT&T. it's entirely locked down to AT&T. until someone proves otherwise, i'm unsure this "GSM" phone will work off their network.
i could be way off...

I'm on the $60 AT&T GoPhone plan. I was able to walk in buy one no commitment with no questions asked.

unbelieveably it is vailable in Future shop, Canad off the contract. I got mine on the release day. Even the future shop sales rep was shocked that usually system would not allow him to sell outright at least for a month...

Not sure if you can get it without a contract, but I paid full price (I and under contract for another year and not yet eligible for an upgrade). I paid full retail, which in the store rang up as $540. Not sure why, since the web site shows $579.00, but I won't complain about saving $40.
BTW - the store I went to said they wont stock 32GB versions in store, they will need to be ordered online. I bought a black 16GB Moto X.

So if I walked into an AT&T store and buy their Moto X full price, will they let me unlock it to use it on T Mobile?

Any Canadians Get a Moto Maker Moto X?

After hearing about the 140 dollar off black Friday sale, I am really considering the phone. The only issue is Moto does not ship to Canada, and I am not sure if they accept Canadian credit cards. Anyone in Canada ever manage to get a Pure Edition Moto X?

bump

i got it when the preorder started.... but i have american credit cards.. had it shipped to my bro's place and he brought it over next time he came to town.. shame they don't have the moto maker in canada

I'm hoping to get in on the Moto Maker deal on Monday (I have relatives in the US, so I'm not so worried about shipping). The question I have is, are there any concerns about hooking it up to the Bell network? From what I'm seeing, I should get the "Pure Edition" and the bands look like they'd match up, but I'm hoping someone can verify that yes this will work before I drop $450 on a new phone

nice, but do you have an american credit card?

I might have to have my relatives help me out on that front, but as long as I can get the deal when the site is actually up, that shouldn't be a problem.
And thanks Steve-x for answering the bands question
Definitely a better plan than the Nexus 5 I was originally going to go for!

I bought a used Telus XT-1097 the other day, if not for that I was wanting the Pure edition as well as it is clearly the best model to buy. End of the day buying one locally that was like new for a fair price was just way easier then trying to get a US prepaid Visa. I didn't need to but I sim unlocked it for fun, it was less then 3 bucks for the code.
Will likely bootloader unlock and root after I've given it a really good test/workout.

You might want to wait until you get teh update before rooting and unlock boot loader.... seems I read in a few threads you have to flash back to a stock image to get the update....... unless of course your planning on flashing the XT1095 image.. but I'd research that first too...

Yeah, I have been waiting so far. It doesn't look too bad though. With 4.4.4 the unroot option in SuperSU should handle things just fine, then flash stock recovery back. The only two things I really want are ad blocking and to enable the green light to indicate when the phone is charging. Might also do a custom boot animation, again easy to undo.

Nexus 6 Verizon?

So I spoke to a Motorola rep who says the nexus 6 is coming to Verizon I guess the 65 million dollar question is... Will it be bootloader locked anyone have any insight into this?

to be a nexus, it has to have the option to unlock the bootloader. so, to answer your question, which is supposed to go into q&a, not general.. no, wont be bootloader locked. but, in the same idea, it can be sim locked. which no one knows, except verizon.
edit.. got moved to q&a

Does it really matter? Verizon doesn't have any information in regards to a Nexus 6 release, if you want the phone, you would just purchase it from Motorola/Play Store/etc already and not count on Verizon to offer the phone. It'll work on Verizon network anyways.

Can someone enlighten me how purchasing Nexus 6 from Google is a viable option for Verizon? I understand you just need the chip, but plan-wise, there are no cheaper plans which remove the price of the phone in the plan, right? In other words, you can get the phone working, but aren't you still paying their high monthly rates?

Yeah but that goes for any phone you would buy from Verizon. You can save money if you know what you're doing. I got the droid turbo subsidized on launch day, sold it on craigslist and bought a note 4 for cheaper on craigslist the same day. Then I did it again to get the nexus. Technically I spent less than $100 to use those three phones since the end of October (when the turbo launched).

OK, I just wanted to make sure I'm not missing something like how T-Mobile's charges less for their plans if you pay monthly for the full price of the phone. I even looked into their prepaid plans, and they're almost more expensive than the subsidized ones... Do you receive any discount on their Edge plan if you supply your own phone? Sorry if this is a little off-topic.

Oh no, that's because T-Mobile doesn't technically subsidize the devices, although obviously you pay less overall.
I'm not sure about a BYOD policy with the Edge plan, but I do know it's a very costly plan for what it is. As I mentioned, a little wheeling and dealing can get you a new device whenever you want for a whole lot cheaper.

If you supply your own phone for Verizon the monthly charge for that line is $15 not $40 (the price on contract). This only applies if you are not currently in a 2 year contract. You have to call them and they will switch it to $15 for the line which is the same price as if you had edge. The price for data remains the same.

Yet another useless thread :good:. First it's Verizon reps, now Motorola reps, what's next? Reported, hope it gets closed.
