Hello guys,
I want to buy the X01HT, but it seems to be out of stock anywhere I ask in Tokyo. I called 5-6 shops and they say it is out. Can anyone help and say where can I find it? If you have any info please share.
Thanks a lot.

you can go to your nearest softbank shop, and ask them to call you when they get x01ht in.
try if you have not gotten one yet.

Well actually they already offered to call me when they get it in one shop, but when I asked when are they expecting to have it they said 2-3 weeks. I just don't want to wait that long. So I am going to check some of the Biccameras or Yodobashis and if they don't have it, then I will be forced to wait.
Thanks anyway for the advices.

i had a world of trouble getting mine as well--calling the softbank shops proved fruitless. i was able to get two of them (one pre dec 02 and one post) and the only place that had 'em in stock was the big yodobashi in akiba so i suggest you try there. also, i'm not sure if you're planning to sign a contract as well but if you just want the phone, you can get them for under 40k on the japan yahoo auction site these days.

i don't recommend getting it from yahoo auction as i doubt that sb will warrant the ones without the tariff contracts. if you don't really care, then that'll certainly be an option.
Thank you guys for all replies.
I got one from Yodobashi in Shinjuku.
It is with the following software:
M 05
S 04
B 06
R 1.14.00.10
G 32.50.7018.00H
D 1.33
Can this one be unlocked using the procedure described earlier in the forum?
Tanks again.

kalintri,
i believe you can't as that should be the new rom that can't be unlocked at the moment. read this thread. there is still a hope that you could at least change its interface to english with the software Asukal is working on for changing mui from japanese to english.

yes indeed! on the ground... brandddddd new. I mean not a scratch or scuff on it... so lucky.
But I am wondering a few things... first off what to do with it? I already have a Cingular 8525 (Hermes) and I do have Tmobile and live in America.
What is better about the Wing compared to the 8525? I heard there was a processor boost and more internal memory is this correct?
Also, how and where to get it unlocked? I travel to Europe periodically.

They also record the IMEI with each call. Just an FYI. So, if it's reported stolen, it can (in theory) be barred from T-Mo's network.

No help from my side ...
What should I do? You're kidding right? Return the damn thing!!! Didn't your mutha teach youse better than that? I'm sure you can find the owner info on the device. You want a Wing... Buy a Wing!
Besides, you have T-Mobile?
Stick your sim card in it. 5 -4 -3 -2 -1....
Hello Mr. Finder-of-lost-Wings-yet-won't-return-them? The persons Wing you are using was murdered and being you have the persons phone, we is be gonna arrest youse butt!!!

Man WTF?! The Hermes is way better compared to the Wing. The Wing has half the CPU (200 vs. 400). I can't believe no one has mentioned this yet since it was one of the questions the man asked. Why would you even WANT to keep it?
so what have you decdied to do?
Dude, check "owner info" and return it.
If anyone decided to keep my Wing when they could easily return it to me, I'd pour A-1 sauce down his pants and let my pit bull loose...
FYI...
I have researched the "IMEI tracking" issue at length with both Tmobile and ATT (formerly Crapular) and both sides have told me repeatedly (CR, managers and acct. reps) that they DO NOT blacklist IMEIs.
Also, they DO NOT have agreements with other providers around the world (or each other) to share each operator's blacklisted IMEIs.
I know UK providers share their lists, and Voda providers throughout the world share the Voda list.
When I asked about police involvement, I was told that there needs to be a court order for the IMEI tracking info to be released.
Now, that being said... I agree with all others. You should return it. There is plenty of info in a phone to figure out who it may belong to. Call records, SMS, emails, maybe a doc or two, owner info. Besides, if the person lost the phone they will report it lost, Tmobile will deactivate the SIM and at the subscriber's request activate a new one. If you just were to call that number (which would be found in the phone itself) then you will reach the owner.
Personally I have never lost a phone. Bricked one once but never lost. Quite frankly I would be pissed and angry. Very pissed and angry! And if someone was to return it, I would take them out for a very nice steak dinner. Being the phone nut that I am, money is really no object when it comes to something i've dedicated my spare time to for many years.
Can the Telus HTC Hero be unlocked, without having any telus sim or being activated on telus in any way at all? I'm on Bell but want an android device. Was thinking of buying it, unlocking it, and throwing in a Bell sim.
unlock?
I am looking for the same answer, it should be able to get unlocked question is has anyone don it yet.
Unlocked and android 2
Better yet lets see it unlocked and android 2 installed!
There is a guy on eBay selling unlock code for the Telus Hero (try searching "telus hero"). If you are willing to shell out 25 bucks, you may want to try that. He said that he would refund you if his code didn't work.
Telus does not lock the phone, that's what the CSR told me. Pretty much u can put in any sim card to make it work.

That's really good news for us AT&T guys!!! I just need to buy one now, from what I hear Telus will not ship to the USA.
So far, actually buying one is the biggest issue. There's been discussion both here at XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580418
and on some other forums, such as:
http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=1585687
About buying it. Apparently both Best Buy and Walmart in Canada have them, but only sell them in the store and won't ship them. (Best Buy's is on their website, but Walmart's doesn't seem to be).
I'm an AT&T subscriber that's been keeping an eye out for a way to buy a Telus HTC Hero. If I lived close to Canada, I'd drive up and get one, but I live in Georgia, so it's a bit far. I hope somebody finds a place online or something.
I'd be careful about believing the Telus CSR info that the phone is unlocked. Somebody posted on Boy Genius Report that they bought one and the phone IS locked.
See user "k386" comment here:

I just bought a Telus Hero from Best Buy today, and I can tell you that the phones are LOCKED. Bought a code off a website and unlocked it, it is now usable on Rogers, but I'm with bell, so I will have to get a Bell Sim tomorrow.

I just got my brand new Hero from Telus at square one.
I then put my Rogers sim card in.
I unlocked it successfully through mobileincanada.com it took 10 minutes to receive the unlock code.
Everything is working great so far. Except for wifi ... having issues connecting to any hot spots? it may be just weak signal or something ... will do some more investigating.
btw. My old phone was the HTC HERMES (I loved it for many years) but it's time to move on

So, just checking: You live in Canada, right? You didn't drive there from USA, right?
I'm just looking at this from afar. So that mall has a main Telus store and a satellite store. For the smaller store, I see that the store mgr or seller provides a non-telus email address. So, for those who want this phone, i don't guess you'd think he'd sell & ship them, right?
Because what were the requirements to buy the phone? I'm just curious since so many people in US are trying to find a source where to buy these phones from.
How much did mobileincanada charge to unlock? And would they be a possible source for buying telus phones, and re-selling & shipping, at a markup, to USA?

This is how I feel about my T-mobile Wing... My unlocked Europe/GSM version of the Hero arrives tomorrow. I wanted the brown color Then I should just have to call up t-mobile's data group and get the settings to use it, with my swapped out sim card, right? (I know, i know, i won't get 3G. That's okay with me. there are many tradeoffs)
You don't need to meet any requirements to buy the phone outright. Other than having the cash to do so
I've bought 3 this week for USA members to ship to them. Was no biggie.

Yes that's who I'm doing it for
I am waiting mine to arrive (my friend in Canada bought and shipped it to me).
Just now I went to HTC Canada's website and looked at the spec again:
Dual mode UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA (900/2100MHz for
EU/Asia, 850/1900 for US and 850/2100 for Telstra)
It's funny how they list 850/1900 for US on HTC Canada's website, as if the phone was designed to work in the US. They could have put it much better by saying "850/1900 for Telus"... Only AT&T uses 850/1900 here in the US, and NO I don't think AT&T is carrying any Android device in the near future.
It's like "Hey, friends across the borders. I am sorry for making the Hero exclusively on CDMA networks in your country, but you know what, here is something that you may like."
I have just purchased the HTC surround for ATT and am looking to get it unlocked for T-mobile. Any reliable site suggestions.
ha i just had the same problem last week
unfortunitally no there arent any i know of
although i looked through craigslist and searched "htc unlock" and found some person who does it
it cost 40$ but damn it was worth it
if not look for a stand in your local malls called "cell phone zone" they do it too
hope this helps
See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836213

I also tried htcimeiunlock, but they didn't have a code for my phone. The good thing about htcimeiunlock though is that they tell you if they have a code for your phone before you buy it. So check there first.

I have another question: Will unlocked HTC HD7 from AT&T work on T-Mobile usa well? I mean would the Internet be fast as on t-mobile smartphones? I'm confused a bit with the specifications on both:
HD7
UMTS 2100MHz AWS1700/2100MHz + GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900MHz
Surround

I'm guessing you accidentally mixed up the phones and their networks. HD7 is on TMO so no unlocking would be necessary.
If you unlock an HD7 you can use voice and 2G on AT&T's network, but no 3G.

Interesting and possible they got some of the Ones released in Germany (Their physical address on the site says "Warsaw, Poland"). I'd have to check on them before I bought anything since I've never heard of them.
Just found this on a quick Google search for them: http://www.scamadviser.com/is-idigitalshop.com-safe.html
Not sure if they're good or bad, but they are very new apparently.

It could be.
But I still don't believe they have them in stock. (especially the RED one!!!)
Really don't think its true since they claim to have a "Red HTC One" in stock.. someone call contact them and find out
i made a contact yesterday, thay told me so.. i was wondering if someone has already bought something from them

Analysis Details:-
This webiste is very new , and as such doesn't have an online reputation yet. As with all new businesses , we suggest that you take care and if necessary get in contact with the owners before placing an order of value.
This site is using an anonymous service - which prevents us from identifying the site owner. This can sometimes be just so that the owner does not receive spam, but be aware that many scam sites use this as a method to hide their identify. If this is an ecommerce site - we would suggest you confirm the business address with the website owners.

I'm from Warsaw and they use false postal code... I've asked them a question, now waiting for answer, but I'd be very careful.

Apparently they have a mobile number in the contact us page which is always off lol
Actually it's not a mobile, but it still sounds too suspicious for me.

They pretend to have in stock the Red one and to sell all versions a a ridicolous price!!! :silly:
