Can get another 10% with discover

I'm waiting mine also. I think, i will have it wednesday...

Missed the delivery guy on Saturday, should arrive tomorrow. My first Sony device so kinda excited to see what it's like ?

I'm really loving it so far. It's refreshing to have a powerful "mini" device. The software isn't all that bad either. Now if we could just somehow get root without unlocking the bootloader.

So Who Brough The Nexus One ?

Hi i orderd the Nexus One today (im in the UK) it looks awsome. Just a quick question to who else has brought the phone ? and where you all are :-D. Im upgrading from my G1 and iPhones
I did
i bought one... love my G1 but until cm4.2.12.2 it was killing me, So after a little over a year I'm movin up. I hope to root it and get the same enjoyment out of it as I am with the G1 on CM builds!
I got one! I'm from UK! Bit of a bummer that we might have to pay VAT etc. Any ideas on how long it will take to arrive?

err the shipping suppose to be overnight, so we'll see about this, I ordered mine around 11:00 or so. I haven't received any confirmation on shipping as well though.
well if i dont get the tracking tomororw i'll get it hte same time i get the phone haha i got it when it had the free overnight shipping.
Bought one and engraved my name and email address on it (USA)
i'd be so pissed if it didnt come tomorrow, in their press conf they even said if you ordered it today it'd be on your door step tomorrow, so we'll see.
I had the money ready to purchase then when I went to order it Google said I couldn't get the phone at $178.00. I call tmobile and the verified that I was indeed available for an upgrade and am not currently under a contract. I sent google an email. Hopefully we can get this worked out asap because I really want this beast. I love my G1 but this will be twice as freaking awesome.
Hello guys, how much does it cost in Europe, or you ordered it in US $ from google.com/phone? Maybe you won't pay vat, they should have a storehouse somewhere in Europe. It says they don't ship to my country.
its avilable now bigd i checked a min ago just to see something else.

North Americ Arc LT15a for sale online!

I think they just made it available today. I've already ordered mine. Pretty similar to the price it's sold for in Canada.

I just got a call from them they are shipping it tomorrow and I'll have it on Friday.
Ditto to what drew said
I also placed an order this morning, will let you all know when it arrives.
I have not seen it yet but there is a + to this? who knows what it would be?
ordered one too...im a picture quality sucker and this phone has it.....
Just talked to Martin at GSMnation. Mine wont ship until Friday. They have had 50-60 orders for this phone in two days. Apparently they've been shipping them out this week, Hopefully BagOfSnakes got his in a lot earlier than my order so he gets his by Friday.
Mine still hasn't shipped either, I got feeling they put this up for sale without knowing exactly when the product was arriving. I've been keeping a close eye on the internets and comparing online retailers. I posted the day they put the Arc up for sale. Unless they had tons of preorders we should be the first few. But I don't even think they had a North American Arc up for preorder at all. They already charged my CC too. That better mean they actually have the phone in their possession to be sent.
I contacted their live chat today and asked about the Silver color. They said that they plan on selling the silver color soon and he advised me to check back next week.
Just wanted to share this info in case people are interested in the silver like I am.

I spoke to the SE folks last month and they mentioned that they did not have a release date for the US. They mentioned that it was going on sale in Canada towards the end of April and that an unlocked version would be available in Canada towards the mid-end May timeframe.
Hopefully, the information I got was incorrect and you guys get your phone soon!

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 worry.
Guys, I also received the same mail...
The tracking page on the Blue Dart site confirms the delivery date as monday ))
The ATM tomorrow it is, then
*yes, I can't stop grinning... I know... I know... )) *
Guys according to XDA Member @arjun90 what we are going to get are just Rs.1000 off vouchers that we can apply later while purchasing the phone.
Don't get your hopes up much
Absolutly right,just got a vocher of Rs 1000,will have to wait for another 10 to 15 days.very painful period.....................

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.
It's been confirmed that there won't be Voodoo for the GS2

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!!

LG V20 Sprint pre-orders?

Just pre-ordered mine. Let's hope the bootloader is unlockable like T-Mobile's or it's bye bye sprint for me!
Just ordered mine as well Sir!!
This will replace my Note 4.
I just hope it really turns out to be the phone every youtube reviewer says it is
Agree. Would like to know before shelling out $850 with tax and 15% restock fee if I want to return it. Been spending a lot of time on t-mobile site looking at plans over the past week just in case.
Saw your work on the N7. Good to see you're here too.
My hunch is that it's locked down. Hope I'm 100% wrong.

Preordered this morning. Got a big old rebate for being with Sprint too long. After all it's said and done... Final cost to me should be$340 no contract over 24 months
I went in to the store to preorder and left with a brand new v20 in hand. Pretty nice surprise.

Just returned from corp store and they had it in stock and sold one to me.
ETA: you probably don't have to pretend... I'm just spoiled from years of Odin on my N2
Same here, pre ordered today.
Went from the Note 7, then bought a Nexus 6p.
Figured I'd take a shot at LG for the very first time. Hearing the BL is locked is sort of a bummer. Hopefully things will get worked out sooner rather than later.
I went to my local store to pre-order. They had the phones in stock, but wouldn't sell one to me even though I'm still rocking the note 7. They did hold one for me for monday though. Also they're allowing me to trade in an iPhone 4s for the $200 credit.

Just curious, why Monday? Isn't the release date the 28th? Either way, that's awesome man.
I called the store today as ell, but they had none in stock, and told me to call back next Friday lol. Figures.
I'm hoping for a Monday delivery day. Gotta return my 5p tomorrow and activate my incredibly, super old HTC EVO 3D.......Ya baby!
Not sure why Monday but the boss said they were selling them starting Monday. I'm also not sure what difference 2 days makes. I would have been super happy to walk out with a v20 today. The salesmen already had one, but he got yelled at for selling himself one.

I saw v20 stock at my store when I preordered on Friday... But they wouldn't let me leave with one. Stupid Sprint corporate.
I even called and chatted with sprint and they wouldn't do anything for me. They keep sending me texts to trade in my note 7, but wouldn't let when I tried.

Verizon has LG V20 in stores today!

I'm going to go pick mine up now. Had the manager hold the silver one for me as there was only one left. I don't know why they're there early, but I thought I'd call just in case, and indeed they have them 5 days early!
I called 4 of my stores today, all of them said they have no idea when they will be getting them in.... did you indeed pick it up from the store?
Why not just order it from the Verizon website.
I ordered mine Thursday night. Received it Friday. Just activated it a few hours ago and been playing with it a little. Love the phone so far.
Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk
I called my local store to see if they had stock and was told yes. I proceeded to unroot and relock my bootloader on my Nexus 6 to have it ready for swap (payment plan upgrade). Got my two kids in the car and headed to the store. Got there and they have no idea what I'm talking about but after some prompting decided to check their inventory. They say they have 6 in Titan but then the store manager can't find them, and basically tell me to go order it online as it won't be in store till the 25th and they couldn't sell me one anyways if they did have stock. I really just wanted to see and feel the phone, everything else I'm sold on. But the attitude I got when we are talking about hundreds of dollars worth of hardware and service, really astounds me. Anyway the moral of the story is YMMV as far as getting a v20 in store before the 25th. Smh I wanted silver anyways.....
it's a verizon store, what did you expect? everytime i goto corporate stores, they're all ignorant a**holes. i hate corporate verizon. i used to run an authorized retailer, and people would constantly tell us nightmare stories of corporate stores, and all i would do is agree, because i felt the same way. they're idiots, and the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing.

That sucks. I got lucky I guess. I'm thrilled too - this is by far the best phone I've ever used (including the Note 7 which I had for a month).
Its funny, now that I had to go back to stock, I decided to flash a Nuget ROM and now I'm not sure if I want to upgrade, my n6 still really holds its on with new software.
My Verizon zone (authorized retailer) said not until Friday. After reading this, I think I'm gonna call every day lol.

Same thing with me, but I got the s7 edge after my Note 7. Man, s7 edge software felt so half-baked compared to the Note 7. Also, the Note 7 curved back makes a huge difference when you hold the phone. I am returning my s7 edge and getting my v20 on wednesday and using my 256gb samsung card.
Quick question for those of you that got yours through verizon. Does it come with a factory screen protector? I'll be getting mine tomorrow and I have a case for it, but I couldn't seem to find a screen protector that was worth a damn. I really don't want to go naked until I find one if I can help it.

Yes it comes with a screen protector that can be used. Just has a small pull tab on it.
Yeah, its a cheap plastic screen protector. I'll keep it on till it bubbles up or starts to peal off.
