Okay, I had a real big problem thing with my dad, but in the end I convinced him to allow me to get it..

October 17th, 2007 at 1:10 am [ Quote ]
brown
October 17th, 2007 at 4:47 am [ Quote ]
I ordered tha brown 1 at 12:01 on the dot! Had an existing 2 yr data contract with tmobile, and the total was about $330 after tax! But I was on tha phone with the tmobile representative and she told me, that they onli waive the fee on ground service, express is 15 dollars, I went with ground service soo I would get it around tha 24th…..
and for all u guys excited about havin it in ur hands by thursday, turns out that express delivery takes 4 to 5 days and u would prolly get it around tha 22nd….I don’t think the stores would have it in their possession soo u would still have 2 wait anyway
I don’t mind waiting a week for the phone, ill jus **** my eyes really tight and hope not 2 see any1 with it! Hope u guys got insurance!

is anyone else having tracking problems?
i ordered my lx last night and it keeps giving me an error when i go to track it.
October 17th, 2007 at 8:40 am [ Quote ]
You have to wait awhile to track it, jsut keep trying later
The CC Rep told me express shipping means I should get it either thursday or friday. Its longer if you live somewhere far. Thers a map at ups whihc shows how long shipping takes.
October 17th, 2007 at 8:57 am [ Quote ]
where exactly is it being shipped from?
I’m in cleveland, ohio and ordered mine early this morning.

I CALLED AT LEAST 10 TMOBILE STORES TODAY AND THEY SAID IT WILL BE IN STORES ON THE 24TH WTF IS THAT SHT? MAKES NO ***** SENSE AND I CALLED TMOBILE AND YES U CAN BUY ONE THREW CUSTOMER CARE RIGHT NOW CAUSE MANY PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY BUT THAT SHT GONNA BE A FEW DAYS TILL U GET IT IN THE MAIL AND THEY SAID IF U DO ORDER IT U WONT PROLLY GET IT TILL THE 24TH SO I SAID *** IT ILL WAIT I GUESS MAN TMOBILE IS ON SUM BULLSHT FO REAL!!!
October 17th, 2007 at 11:39 am [ Quote ]
THEY STATED IT CLEARLY AT TMOBILE.COM PRESS RELEASE SAID THE 17TH FOR EXCISTING CUSTOMERS AND I CALL 10 STORES NOPE THE 24TH WTF THATS SUM BULLSHT FO REAL!!! BUT I GOT MY RESERVE CARD SO I SHOULD BE ALL GOOD AND IM GETTIN ME A MIDNIGHT BLUE ONE…BUT IM MAD AS HELL I GOT TO WAIT 7 MORE DAYS
October 17th, 2007 at 11:47 am [ Quote ]
kur5e, you have to call up or go online to get it before the 24th, unless you live in one of the five cities that has one store that has them in stock for current customers
October 17th, 2007 at 11:56 am [ Quote ]
Does anyone know what the turn out at the NY store is like? illsellyoursoul, it sounds like you went, how was it? Not that I’m in any rush to get this thing, but I’m just curious.
October 17th, 2007 at 12:03 pm [ Quote ]
I ran… after I found out I could get it without the pre register card… but there was like 5 people in the store + 20 people working for TMobile… atleast in the morning it wasn’t a big turnout… but I’m thinking after school is over and the hoodlums come out it will get crazy
October 17th, 2007 at 12:08 pm [ Quote ]
kur5e, yes its available to current customers today, but, just like the press release says, it is available through customer service or online or in 5 Flagship Stores. Not just ANY store will have them. Only 5 stores in the country will have them today for current customers. Its not that difficult guys. Its pretty much the same procedure as the SK3, don’t you remember?
I personally think that the LX is an insult to long time SK users which is why I’m in no rush to get it (although I probably will lol) but if you want it asap and you don’t live in one of the 5 stores that are selling them today, then I suggest you order it online or over the phone. You’ll prob get it in 3 days.
October 17th, 2007 at 12:36 pm [ Quote ]
Wow 5 people? That is pitiful. They had the same deal for the SK3 (except it was 2 stores instead of 5) and it was a BIG deal. Z100 was there and everything. I was at the NY location at 7am. I was like the 100th person on line. I had my SK3 by like noon and by then the line was around the block!
Just to further help out ku5e (and whoever else needs the info) these are the 5 stores that are selling the LX right now:
Atlanta@Buckhead store number 5725
Chicago@State & Monroe store number 8428
Los Angles@Santa Monica store number 7393
Miami@Kendall Corners store number 6844
New York City@Times Square store number 8882

hey, where is the flagship store? and how much did you pay im in the NY area!
October 17th, 2007 at 12:50 pm [ Quote ]
I just got mine @ the Los Angeles Santa Monica store… online they didn’t wanna give me a discount but @ the store I got it for cheaper…
October 17th, 2007 at 12:56 pm [ Quote ]
is it me or does tmobile customer reps kinda suck?
i only seem to get a competent/nice one on the 3rd try
but my story is that bc i ordered it at like 1205AM, they somehow still consider that the 16th adn said yeah we’re going to charge you $15 for shipping. the free shipping only applies btw the 17th-23rd and i was like WHAT?! then i told them how i only did it online to get teh free shipping and it was an option when i bought it and then yeah i got it waived or well they’re going to waive it on teh 29th if it shows up when they ship it hopefulyl later today or even tomorrow whcih sucksssss
it says bc i ordered it on the 16th i should be getting it on the 19th so HOPEFULLY!! sucks that ups doesn’t ship on the weekends. but im crossing my fingers for the 19th !!!
is anyone getting insurance? is it really really worth it?
October 17th, 2007 at 1:04 pm [ Quote ]
It’s on 7th Ave btwn 48th and 49th… could be 47th and 48th… i dont recall

A question: What does the myspace 24/7 do? Will it just be easier to get on there or what? Anyone know? Thx.

Its like a live connection to myspace. all your messages, friend requests and comments all come to your phone right as they happen.
October 17th, 2007 at 3:39 pm [ Quote ]
Yeah, it’s made especially for phones. But really, I won’t use it. I’ll just go on myspace via web browser.

October 17th, 2007 at 5:08 pm [ Quote ]
But what sucks about that is, is that you have to pay for it.
From sidekick.com:
————–
Promotional Offer – valid when you download MySpace before 12/31/2007, 11:59 pm PST.You will not be charged for the initial download of MySpace. For each monthly recurring fee due between the initial download and 12/31/2007, 11:59 pm PST, you will be charged and refunded the $1.99 monthly fee. The charge and refund may post to separate monthly bills. After 12/31/2007, 11:59 pm PST, user will be charged a $1.99 monthly fee unless you discard the application. You may discard the application within 30 days of downloading it without incurring the monthly fee.
————–
And screw paying $1.99 for stupid myspace. Thats a waste of money in my eyes. You can always just view it through the web browser anyways.

Yup you do.

soo just to clear things up a bit……..okay, i have a 2 year contract and i got that reservation card on sept 26…..does that mean i can get my sidekick now? or do i still have to wait till the 24th?…..i’m confused sorry.
October 17th, 2007 at 8:42 pm [ Quote ]
i think you have to get it on the 24th (in the store) since you got the reservation card. but since you’re already a t-mobile customer you can upgrade it online right now
October 17th, 2007 at 8:43 pm [ Quote ]
so when’s the sidekick 4 coming out…is it really worth the upgrade..
October 17th, 2007 at 8:46 pm [ Quote ]

October 18th, 2007 at 7:07 am [ Quote ]
Dude.. Chill out. Before you point someone out learn the facts. T-mobile does not manufactor the phone.. Sharp does.. And Danger’s MYspace Application does drain the battery life somewhat.. But with every networked application that uses both bandwidth, constantly is downloading content from the servers, and is being used non stopped, comes worse battery life.
The Myspace app wasnt made to be used every second you know.
October 18th, 2007 at 7:15 am [ Quote ]
oh yeah my lx is arriving today i cant wait!!! fyi the tracking is working now if you were having issues
October 18th, 2007 at 7:21 am [ Quote ]

October 18th, 2007 at 9:06 am [ Quote ]
I GOT MINE!!
I ordered it yesterday at 7am and I got mine this morning at 11am.
The UPS dude woke me up lol.
They are shipping them from Georgia, and I live in Ohio, so that gives you an idea of how fast these are going out. So everyone should be getting them today and tomorrow for sure.
It’s SOO lightweight and cheap feeling, almost like its fake. But you guys are going to love it. The camera and screen are bombbb.
October 18th, 2007 at 9:23 am [ Quote ]
To track them are you just using your 10 digit phone number in the reference page on ups.com??
October 18th, 2007 at 9:26 am [ Quote ]
ALL 4 CORNERS OF THE PHONE LIGHT UP!!
when you turn it on and when it rings…oh man you guys are going to LOVE your new phone.

hmm ordered mine on 17 around 2 or so in the evning and tracking shows that im getting it today, i live in california too… my guess is tmobile is doing over night shipping for sidekick orders.
also for those having problems tracking make sure you use this format for ur number ***-***-xxxx

October 18th, 2007 at 3:28 pm [ Quote ]
I called tmobile twice already to have them check on the tracking number and both times they have said that it isn’t showing up for them either. They did say that they do see the order on there so both were ordered for sure and that it was probably shipped yesterday and it is possible that’s why it isn’t showing up in their system yet. They just told me to try checking online later today and see what it says.

well i live in queens..i picked ground shipping cuz tmobile kept saying express was 15 dollars. i had to call tmobile for the tracking number but u an track it by goin 2 ups.com, tracking, and then tracking with a reference and ur tracking reference # is ur 10 digit phoe number with tha dashes….i checked on mine and its already in maspeth, which is borderline queens, they sed the expected date is oc 22nd, bt i really hope i come home 2morrow and see it waiting 4 me=]
October 18th, 2007 at 9:53 pm [ Quote ]
by tha way, can sum1 with the LX already tell me how tha camera is, i kno 3 ppl who have it already and NO1 used tha camera yet, lol
October 18th, 2007 at 10:36 pm [ Quote ]
i got mine last night from the kendall store
what i hate about it:
the camera freaking sucks. there is no nighttime/daytime setting. the only settings are autoflash and flash off. and when the flash is on (EVEN IN A PITCH BLACK ROOM) it washes out the whole picture to a white blob.
where is the alarm? still havent found it.
and it froze for about 25 minutes today. and i hadnt even had it for 24 hours.
the myspace app has a really bad delay and takes a long time to load for the most part.
the keyboard sucks, i wish it was more like the sk3 keyboard.
its a gorgeous phone though. i love the screen. its so clear and bright. super lightweight. the dimensions are so close to the sk3 but it feels so much slimmer!
and the microSD is SO MICRO. its smaller than my fingernail.
October 18th, 2007 at 10:37 pm [ Quote ]
oh. and i paid $320 or something.
October 18th, 2007 at 10:50 pm [ Quote ]
OMG, so I come home and see a UPS notice on my front door.
WTF?!?!??!?! so let’s see, I didn’t expect my sklx to come so early!, but atleast I know I’ll get it for sure tomorrow :]
October 18th, 2007 at 11:53 pm [ Quote ]
I actually luv the camera in a pitch black room I get great pictures I think its a lot better than the sk3 and I don’t get that white blob. I also like the keyboard to bigger letters makes it easier for me, and it hasn’t frozen. I have no problems so far. I’m typing from it now!

October 19th, 2007 at 12:49 am [ Quote ]
i ordered mine around 1am on the 17th… so like tuesday night. was all super excited and kind of annoyed that i couldn’t track it. i called tmobile yesterday and they said it probably isn’t showing kuz it hasn’t been shipped. then i tried tracking again today while i was on my way home from school and they told me monday at the latest. then the guy told me i was checking the tracking site wrong. i didn’t know the phone number is the reference number and not the tracking number and then he told me that he checked it for me and that it was delivered already. so i got it when i got home =]
i love it. i got the brown one. so light. so pretty. anyone else get brown?
oh yea. don’t forget to switch over to the lx data package plan so u guys could send mms. i did that today too.

Upgraded from SK3 on tmobile website afternoon of the 17th and the LX was on my doorstep the afternoon of the 18th. I’ve had a Sidekick since the B&W, other than skipping over the SK2 for an unfortunate, short-lived mistake with a Treo 600. I still love it, and the LX just makes it nicer! I opted for the brown, which looks much better in person than in web photos, a dark mahogany.
I don’t use the Sidekick for MP3s, except if there’s a song I’m trying to learn. I love my digital SLR, so I’m not so concerned about camera phones (although the LX does seem slightly improved, or maybe it’s just the wonderful screen, since I rarely copy shots off the phone). What I do and like most are IM, SMS, and email (well and talking), and the Sidekick does that for me better than anything else.

Has anyone downloaded “Message Sentinel”? I’m having problems with it. Whenever I’m sent SMS messages it doesn’t light up indicating I have a message at all. It does work for Emails and IM’s. Any ideas on how to fix it?

It doesn’t seem to work for me. When I go and try to send picture texts I get the message that it cannot be sent. Anyone else have this problem?? And I read somewhere where someone said that tmobile will have a new plan that you will have to switch to in order to send picture texts. Something that you need it to support MMS? Anyone heard of this?? I called tmobile and they were useless. She couldn’t find any information on it at all!
October 24th, 2007 at 9:14 am [ Quote ]
So I guess I answered my own question by searching online. I found this:
“In addition to changing the price point from $20 to $19.99 (yeah, we’re serious), the company is also set to include unlimited MMS. Sure, it sounds like a feature that should have been added years ago, but keep in mind that the upcoming Sidekick Slide and Sidekick LX are the first handsets in the Sidekick family to be MMS-capable. Any new customers that buy an LX or Slide out of the gate will be automatically placed on the new Sidekick plan, but existing Sidekick users that upgrade devices will have to manually migrate to the new add-on. “

I got the Midnight Blue. I have a question… I read the manual and I saw the step on how to record your own ringtone, however, I still have no idea how to. It says…
You may have the option to record a new ringtone. Recorded ringtones are saved to the Imported category.
Record a New Ringtone
1. From any ringtone selector, select Record New Ringtone.
2. The Stand By dialog box appears. To begin your recording select the Start Recording button or press the LEFT SHOULDER button.
3. While recording, you can CANCEL , Pause/Resume , or Stop Recording . When finished, select Stop Recording.
4. The Recorded dialog box appears. From this dialog box you can review your recording by selecting one of the transport controls: play from beginning, play/pause, reverse fast, fast forward. You can also CANCEL the recording altogether or Re-record .
5. Once you select Done , you are prompted to name your new ringtone. Type a name in the text field, then select Save .
6. You can now select this new ringtone from any of the ringtone selectors in any of the applications. Look for your new ringtone in the Imported category.
Note: If you already have 10 ringtones in your Imported category, then you will be prompted to discard one of your existing imported ringtones.
First of all… what’s the ringtone selector? Can anyone help me figure it out. Thank you.
