Nope, I order it 27 Evening, and until today my status says preparation in progress, and before 10 minutes JUST ARRIVED with Royal Mail!!!

Ordered 32g version on Tuesday afternoon and received it Friday afternoon.
Got the 'shipped' email a few hours before the postman delivered it.
I chose free (Royal Mail) shipping so can't complain with a 3-day service.

I ordered mine Saturday evening and it arrived today. Granted, I paid the 10euro surcharge for faster delivery.

was out of stock when i ordered but it got dispatched at 3am on friday and delivered at 10am on monday - free royal mail delivery.

You are so lucky.
I have to wait till it arrives in germany.
Bought on wednesday, 26.06, and was shipped on friday. But now since one day its not moving
anymore. I really hope that it arrives tomorrow.
I also paid for express shipping.

Yes, I received it yesterday, on monday.
It is really a great mobil phone and feels unbelievable valuable.
I am really sure that I made the right choice for me.
However, I have a problem with the screen, a group of six dead pixels, and I leave the country in a few days
for one month and don't have much time to make a replacement.
I contacted the support and they are willing to exchange the phone under warranty when I'm back,
not mainly because of the number of dead pixels, but also because they are located so near to each other.
So..the support is also very nice.
I'm sure that I want to stay with the Find 5.

I'm considering moving to the Oppo from the HTC One mainly because of the sheer number and variety of QC issues arising with the One. However, I'm now concerned to hear of dead pixels with the Oppo so is QC an issue here as well?!

No dead pixels on mine and, having read a few articles on the oppo find 5 both on these forums and other web pages, I've not heard anybody else mention anything about dead pixels/QC issues. Maybe just a one off and very unfortunate for the above member.

Only seen the odd report but it's reassuring to know you can get it replaced under warranty. Bit of a hassle of course but every product has some detective units.

Galaxy S II in India - shipped!!

Hi guys,
The availability and pricing in India for S II was announced and put up simultaneously for pre-order in collaboration with Samsung India on letsbuy.com on the 25th of May with ETA as 9th June.
While I was late to the party by around 10hrs, I placed the order straightway without a moment's delay. The offer was a great bargain as well, compared to the prices around the world. This is what I got:
Samsung Galaxy S II (with NFC chip confirmed!!)
MHL Adapter
Car Charger
Official Flip Case
Molife Fit to use case (??)
Screen Protector
And all of the above for just $725 or Rs32,830 in Indian currency!!!
But what has me jumping up and down right now with joy is that I just received an email from the letsbuy.com guys stating that my order has been shipped, tracking info et all...!! Should be on the doorstep by Monday morning... the wait is just killing me now.
So how many guys on the same boat as me?
I got the same Email too. What's going on?
Congratulations!! That is a good deal if your price conversion is correct & in U.S. currency
According to Letsbuy.com, they stated its a mistake and it will start shipping on 2Nd week of June.

Nopes, not a mistake. It's just that they now have more orders than the units they are going to receive.
The guys who were the first to pre-order had the Desktop Dock as a free gift along with the MHL adapter, Car Charger and Screen Protector. The response was obviously overwhelming and the pre-order page was put down and came up again after a few hrs. That is when I came to know about the pre-order and booked one for myself. The Dock had been removed though and replaced with a Molife Case.
The ETA was 9th June and now obviously the orders have been exhausted again and the ETA has been changed to a tentative 2nd week of June and the car charger has been replaced with a bluetooth headset.
So basically, not a mistake on their part. Gotta wait till Monday and see what comes in the parcel !!
I too have got an SMS and Email along with Tracking nos.
I hope they actually send the phone. Can't wait for Monday to come
Anyone was able to track their Docket No on Bluedart website?
Its probably too early to track. Maybe till tomorrow afternoon/evening it might get updated.
Anyways I wish they give the Dock instead of Molife case. I already bought this sexy looking official red case!
I think Monday is a sure shot date,my dealer has already confirmed regarding Monday availability,i will get it Monday itself

Don't get your hopes up much

Looks like you haven't been following all the latest action. There apparently is not much that can be done, the flaw is in the hardware and the design.

According to other threads on this forums, this is supposedly a fake and not a genuine item. The 'S' in the original has a different font... chances are they do come out of the same factory though and are of identical quality.
And yeah... it's just a voucher on the way with at least another two weeks wait. Major bummer!!

Any definitive knowledge on GameStop?

I've kept my eye on search on both XDA (i've searched my ass off) and Google - I can't find ANY intel on when GS is said to get their shipments.
The few people that got theirs from GS don't provide much info.
Is gamestop supposed to get a shipment soon, or am I DEFINITELY waiting til September 30th? (I *really* want to withdraw the $100 I put on it, and just buy it somewhere that has it, but I am getting a lot from trade-ins)
I ordered mine on the 22nd, and whenever I call in they have *no* idea what's going on with them.
Anyone know? O-o
I believe I saw they will be getting a shipment August 7th. I think I saw it on one of the major tech blog sites but I can't remember for sure.
I got mine at Gamestop on a walk-in that Saturday after they went on the website as shipping in 1 day then they went backordered. When I went in guy said he didn't even think his store would get one because nobody preordered it and they weren't expecting anything til August at the soonest. Now I heard September as well when I stopped in the other day thats pretty crazy
I preordered mine on the 17th of July on Gamestop and received my Nexus yesterday, and I was told that it would arrive on August 7th.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Cool! Glad to hear some people are getting theirs. My local gamestop just has no clue o-o
Maybe it will come tomorrow, maybe it will come in august!
I'm waiting for so many things, maybe it will all come at once and be like Christmas.
My nexus 7, a bag of holding from thinkgeek, an OTG cable, and my reddit arbitrary day gift xD
I pre ordered as part of the August 7 shipment and received mine two days ago.

The quality is great. No defects so far. The only downside I have noticed is that it won't charge off anything except the charger that came with it.

sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that is an actual defect. Search around, and you'll see what i mean. If you can live with it, do so by all means..But i could see it getting annoying in the long run

Eternal Team 7th of May sale

Who ordered a 4G/64G/2.3ghz model from Eternal Team during the sale on AliExpress?
I ordered one. Still waiting on it to ship.
If anyone wants to have a conversation about the order process from Eternal Team team I'm happy to have a chat about it here.
I am waiting too. I think i will be minimum 1 month before i get it (and U)
Same here. They just promised me today that it will ship in the next 7 days. Just have to wait and see.

It's been almost 7 days. I am exposed to Forex rates losses (good 10 dollars loss) in case Ali Express closes the order and reimburses.
I was one of the first few to purchase the 4gb/64gb model when the sale went live. (If the counter on the site was correct.) I received a tracking number from them last night for Singapore Post. Assuming it isn't a bogus number, it looks like they are shipping them out.
Nothing yet, 20 hours to cancel and a string of polite emails to the eeller requedting updates. It loos like they did not have the number of units they promised and want to get away with a with it.
i got mine shipped a day before time expiration. wish you luck!
Mine had just been shipped as well. I went with the DHL option so it should get here within the next 4-5 days.

They waited for the last day to ship it, and didn't respond to my questions. I ordered it with ups expedited (3-7 days) and the tracking number they gave me doesn't work. So i believe it's a fake number and they don't have shipped it out yet. It was supposed to be my first android phone
But anyways anybody who gets it please post it here so we know it's real because everything screams scam on this order, so we know it's real

They say they have already shipped mine too. The fact that your TN does not work is because tracking systems need about 3/4 days to update. This is not the worry.
Could you people say if your TN is of origin Malaysia???
Mine is like RCxxxxxxxxxMY. This *could* be OK if they are shipping from manufacturer and not from China as usual, but one never knows.

I thought UPS updates it's tracking system right away. My tracking number doesn't have an prefix or sufix like yours it's all numbers and a few letters here and there. But I really hope it's shipped at least because there are rumors that ASUS can't supply the orders for some countries like France because it hasn't produced that much units.
Edit: I just received an update that the Order is Processed: Ready for UPS. So that's good news
i don't think they are scammers i think they are legit... from my experience at least...
Received shipping notification last night.
I ordered mine one hour after they started selling them at the special discounted rate. Because I paid for the ZF2 quickly, I qualified to receive a free gift. They said they will also be sending me a Silicon Case and Screen Protector.
They sent me a Singapore Post (singpost.com) tracking number. I just tried checking that tracking number and it currently isn't available and can take up to 24 hours to be available for tracking.

Where to get it "from stock"

I ordered mine from efox-shop.com
Shipment by DHL Express was fast, but it takes around 5 working days (after the order/payment) until it is picked up by DHL and shipped from their Hong Kong warehouse.
So expect 5 - 10 working days before it reaches you. In Germany, DHL also does tax and VAT and collects the amount cash at delivery... Don´t know how that works in other Countries.
AOSP apk are easy to get in the Google Play Store (which is already installed and easy working).
Hope I could help.
best regards
Dietmar
According to Elephone Facebook site, US version will probably not be released until July. Originally, back in November, I was told January, then before April 20th and now it's July?
Have you got your phone already then? I've ordered mine via Elephonestore and am deciding whether I should cancel the order or not as they aren't clear when mine will be shipped.

No, I have not ordered yet. Been waiting for the US version, which they keep delaying and can not give me a definite date when it will be released. Makes you wonder about the quality of their work, when this is the way they do business.

I created an account with eFox and placed my order for a P9000 on 26 March and now (7 April) the tracking shows >>2016-04-07 04:44 The item is on transport to the country of destination<<
Before this it show >>2016-04-06 08:29 The item is at the PostNL sorting center<< So I’m hoping to get it soon.
With regard to your:- “e-fox the site keeps logging me out” try another explorer, I also have similar issues with Mozilla Firefox and other issues with Chrome; I think they all have to frequent updates and Chinese sites don’t keep up.

Haven't got it yet only arrived in UK today, so probably get it Tuesday, and yes hope no duty to pay. I’ve often wondered what would happen if I refused to pay the postman, he’d take it away but would I be able to get a refund from the sellers via PayPal?

Dunno let me know how it goes though. At most you'd probably get stung £20-£30 which isn't bad as it still puts the phone under £200 which seems about right. I'm deciding now whether I want to cancel with elephonestore and reorder this via another shop or go with a Xiaomi Mi4s or Redmi Note 3 Pro. Both around the same price but then I'd be losing NFC and Band 20 (not a big deal for me as I might switch from GiffGaff to EE if I do). Did order a £5 glass screen protector for the P9000 that hasn't arrived yet so might just write off that and just go with a different phone. Annoying thing is Xiaomi probably locks boot loader or isn't close to vanilla android. Lots of good phones out there for around the £200 mark!
I think a lot of people still awaiting shipment these days. Next weeks community will start with lots of discussions. Lets keep connected with first experiences of tax & device itself. @DaBountyHunter: I also thought about switching to Xiaomi or Redmi (Note) device, but will give the P9000 a chance first (i also like the NFC, QI-Charge, USB-C features and also i hope for a working gyro in the P9000). I have tested the Elephone Trunk for couple of days (handed over to a friend) and was pretty ok with the quality (also with 3 OTA updates within first weeks for the Trunk it seems that Elephone is working on ROM quality for their new devices).
Br Arangato
Personally I definitely wanted Android v6 Marshmallow, and neither of those two alternatives have I believe, but the P9000 has.
Yeah that's definitely one of the things that drew me towards the P9000. It's got everything there the only negative is the P10 is a bit underpowered but then all I do is surf the web... whatsapp and play Clash of Clans and it'll be fine for that. Just wish it was easier to get hold of !
I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 2s, it's a well made phone and before the most recent ota which redeemed my Neuxs 5x it was my daily driver but it's frustratingly poor Android experience. You can replace the launcher so it looks like something other than the bastard child of IOS but miui 7 is very very aggressive in killing background apps, which makes listening to music difficult so I'm hoping the P9000 with stock is a better experience. I'll let you know.

It came this morning with No customs & excise duty charged :victory:
I first ordered it on 26th March and received it today 9th April: that’s 14 days (10 working days) I’m happy with that.
So in answer to the question “Where to get it from stock" e-Fox for sure.
It looks good came well packed, I haven’t had a chance to try it out yet only put it on charge so far.

Was it via DHL? Thanks for reporting back. Wish I didn't waste time with Elephonestore and saw these people first. Please update if you do get Tax because sometimes they are crooks and send you a letter a week or two after you've received the goods. You can normally dispute the admin charge on that but you still have to pay the customs and vat unfortunately.
The shipping agent (from HK) was Netherlands (PostNL International Mail) then it was passed on to Royal-Mail to deliver, I didn’t have to sign anything, (but I was still in bed when the postman came) the package had a declared value of $75 US on it.
Cheers mate looks all good then! Hope you enjoy the phone !! Happy days !! also does yours come with the silicone case in the box as others have?
Also which shipping method did you choose as there's three there...
Registered airmail... german express... and dhl
I order my P9000 also at eFox. But since 02.04 the status is "Shipment ready to be shipped". Nothing happens

EE UK

Ordered mine just now from EE, bye bye Huawei.
Went with the 128GB as I barely use 50GB on my Huawei.
Unlimited 5G with the Galaxy Active 2 watch also on LTE.
£79+£14 pm.
No upfront cost, all in black.
Watch comes tomorrow, phone on the 13th apparently..
I didn't even want 12GB as it'll just use more battery for no reason, 8GB is the sweet spot, but I'm excited about getting the device. Hopefully the exynos can bring a smile to my face, it's been a while since I had a Sammy.
12GB won’t use more battery... all about future proofing.

Tbh 12GB over 8GB will use more exactly the same as 16GB will use more than 12. It's the nature of hardware.
Tbh 5000MAh sounds like if should be enough I think.
I think both will be superb.

I'm thinking they'll send it on the 16th and I'll have it on the 17th.
Who did you order from?
I've been in touch with their Twitter rep who (claims he) checked stock intake plans and identified there is an established queue. I am on it and will get mine 24th-26th as per my order page. People ordering today will get it on 31st March.
Essentially, your estimated delivery date is accurate. If it says 10th March, you got in early enough to be in the first batch, if not, you are in a later batch.

Thanks for that, is a shame as I would have obviously preferred to have it in the first batch. Maybe I would have got in the first batch if they didn't have issues processing the payment which meant I had to call up after the weekend to sort it out

Tbh missing the first batch may have been a blessing in disguise, often the first ones released have the most bugs, whether it be hardware or software.
Silver linings
Yeah, plus it gives them time to patch these camera issues we're reading about. At last we can make a decision about returning based on the "fixed" firmware rather than risking running out the return period waiting for an update.

Yea absolutely, tbh I've took a chance on so many devices, most of them HTC but some oddballs like the Sony Z1, great phone, awful modding community, same with the note 4, Evo 3D, great camera; unable to patch over to Cyanogenmod, bought that bugger and it was listed as SIM free for £556 which was then the highest priced smartphone of the time, 3 months later it was listed as £155 (this was the beginning of the end for HTC, they never recovered, such a shame, HTC did so much right for Android as a platform)
Even the S3 I bought was a risk, but it paid off, stellar device.
I think if Samsung are going to focus on the Exynos device ( which If what I've heard is true. They won't!
Reason I say this is because this is apparently the last exynos, not even the South Koreans are using it, for the first time)
I hope that Samsung allow updates to the exynos device drivers similar to the SD via the play store.
For me so long as the exynos can run the windwaker on dolphin then I'll be happy as it'll be on pay with the 855 from the SD range.
As for the battery, I have a unique set of apps and a great habit and track record of making a device last a long time and show the best SOT times I've ever seen.
Oneplus 5 - 14 hours 47 minutes over 2 days on 1 charge
P20 pro - 17 hours 30 minutes over 2.5 days on 1 charge
So I think if I set the device up right, I believe I'm going to break 20 hours, also before you think I am reading books or something, the app list is shown on the OnePlus forum.

It's not delayed. The problem is there are no stock to fulfill the demand for the Ultra. No one has been pre ordering the 20 plus or 20 really.
Have to say if they don't fulfill their promise to me about the 13th I'll be cancelling both this and the watch.

I'm not with virgin lad.. no idea, EE advised it would be the 13th. If it's not then I'm cancelling. Going to try the oppo V2 pro
Just got off the phone to EE as I got the active 2 watch with cellular WITH the phone and seeing as I have the watch and not the phone I was worried that id end up with a watch I couldn't use with my current phone, p20 pro.
The chap from EE clarified that I will definitely get the phone on launch, march 13th as I ordered on the 3rd..
So I'm quietly happy now, just hope they don't mess me about.
My advice if you're unsure, tell them that if there's a level of uncertainty that it won't be there on the day that's you've been promised then you'll cancel it if it doesn't show up.
With EE, they told me that my order status will update on the day before to say it's been allocated.
so noone got the phone yet so far, just as i said they are lying. I was told tomorrow but yet no email from Virgin
