My guess is it will come in ICS. At least I don't see why it shouldn't. I don't see the point of the NS 4G exclusive lasting much longer. At some point they are going to lose out on competition if they don't start getting this on NFC enabled phones.
I really hope it comes supported on all nexus s phones when ICS comes out for us so I don't have to flash a zip each time and can instead just get the updates from market

Anyone know if this is available for employees or when it will be? I am on a SWAC account? Thanks

I got mine for free through HTC's Champions program. 250 deposit that they refund part of when you send your qualifying device back to htc. I'm lucky enough to have a Note II that is offering a full deposit refund :good: The downside of this program is I have to wait 2 weeks for them to ship it out to my store Not sure if the program applies to sprint corporate though I'm a 3rd party store.

It would appear this is the case, on the site they specifically sate "does not apply to corporate" and only list Preferred/Platinum dealers on the approved dealer list.
So, can employees buy it? Not some HTC program. I mean is it available for employees of Sprint to purchase from our company on our computer at work.
I am only asking because I live on the far side of town from the employee store. I would hate to make the trip for no reason.

No not yet. They put it up through there site to get people to trade in there galaxy s3 straight up (htc rep said it was aimed at the s3)
It might be a little while inventory is strained and still no black available. But on a positive note they have been quicker with employee availability minus the iPhone

I saw signage for HTC Champions at the Radioshack where I work... There are Radioshack everywhere. See if you can do it there.

Its only through there site you pay them 250 for the phone they send it, you send yours in and they cut you a check for it
Update on availability I'm the advocate at my store and my phone had to be returned to inventory cause of constraints so.... Expect even longer of a wait

Can employees buy it now? I know it had only been a week but the S4 came out so I didn't know if that changed things.

My understanding is (got this confirmed by corporate when trying to get iPhone 5) that even if you buy the handset full price even if directly from manufacturer, you cannot activate it on an employee account or you risk getting on corrective action up to termination. This was huge deal when the EVO 4G came out. A manager in my district almost got fired for this...
Wait until sprint sprint sends communication to employees that you can buy it for swac accounts. Just my .02 cents

I had no problem activating mine on a sero plan through sprint's online chat. Idk how sprint corporate works but I dont see why it would be an issue.
I don't think that is true. I have bought numerous devices and activated them before they were available to employees.
BTW, any word on if this is available yet?

Hello! I have a question for the z1....
I'm looking to get a z1 but I am trying to get the right model to support the AT&T LTE network. I believe it's bands 17 and 4 that are mostly used which leaves me only the c6906 for only option (correct me if I'm wrong please).
The problem is I don't see anything for this model on the Sony store anywhere. How or where do I get one?
The current one listed on the Sony store is the c9602 I think. Would that still work?
Thanks again!
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
You should be fine. I have a C6906 and I'm using it on Straight Talk here in NY and getting 4G LTE
Sent from my C6906 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the heads up. So where did you get yours? I can't find it on the Sony store..... And does that mean the c6902 would pretty much be useless then?
Thanks
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Yea I don't think the c6902 will with getting you 4G LTE. I was going to get the C6903 but thought I would be better off with the C6906 since it has all the bands baked in. Can't go wrong with that.
I was lucky to get mines on eBay from a seller in Miami. Brand new untouched! three seconds left on the auction. The others don't see it coming, bet they were all pissed! Lol

looks like all the 6906 models are either on back order or out of stock at the moment though.

I got mine from Omegacell
I got mine from Omega cell, They're selling the network unlocked Rogers version (C6906).
I got lucky, I bought it during their Black Friday sale + Discount code. (Double Bang!! )
My total including shipping was $690 (1 year warranty from Omegacell)
Reliable place to buy.

Yeah people are trying to sell phones at higher cost cuz its installed on them. Even tho I can still download it from google play and it auto restores with my apps when I flash new roms
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk
I think it's mostly an iPhone thing, as getting an app onto one that isn't from the app store requires sorcery. As said anyone can get it on an Android device since the apk is floating around without any sort of hack or warranty violation so I see no reason it would drive up the cost there.

Yup, but the average Joe is pretty stupid when it comes to smartphones. In face, a vzw rep actually told me that rooting was a way to install apps out side of the play store. And she was paid to know this stuff lol

I wouldn't doubt it one bit. Walked into a verizon to check out a case one day. Lady was trying to help customer with something built into phone and I butted in to say what to do. sometimes regular normal people have to bring to them haha. I was still looked at all messed up, just mad I was right ?

The game was pulled from the Apple Store, and unless you're jailbroken, you couldn't get it anymore - so many people were trying to sell their iPhones with the app still installed, for retarded amounts of money. I was seeing them on eBay and craigslist for up to $2000 because of it...

Pretty sure the sprint rep meant Nov.15 for sprint
Maybe they will take pre orders on the 12th. Maybe that's where thatcrumor came from. It just doesnt make sense that google play store pre orders aren't here until around the 21st.

It is also possible that the rep knows when they are getting shipment. Not all of the T-Mobile stores are getting stock on the 12th. Some may get it in the evening. Some may get it day(s) later. Even with some of the recent launches, like the Note 4 some stores didn't have stock in the morning they got their shipment that evening.

coming from someone who works in merchandising... I would be amazed if corporate even knew what corporate was doing. Lol

That was my first thought. He just sounded confident it was LAUNCHING the 18th. It's not the biggest T-Mobile store. But its a newer one. I'm still shooting for Wednesday. My phone case will be here tomorrow. Google may be telling them when they go on sale. So they may have no idea. But chances are. They will try to sell me a Samsung when I walk in.

There is a user around here that posted a spreadsheet stating which stores will be getting it in or not, here . How true the data will be come Wednesday, don't know. But it seems legit enough.
I read a few articles this weekend that said T-mobile and other carriers will have extremely limited supply. So it will be like the play store and sell out in minutes I bet. So unless your in front of your computer hitting refresh the whole day I doubt you will get one. Its just like the Nexus 4 and 5 launch. It was several months after release that anyone could actually get one in a normal way.
Another local store said they might be getting them in this Wednesday. He will know tomorrow. That store was not on the list linked above. So we will see.
