In my experience, I too am based in the UK, I went for standard delivery and it took around 7 days. If you chose express, I expect yours will be around 5 days.
Usually you'll get the email with your tracking number and the day after your item will be delivered.
Good luck. It's an amazing phone!

Have not had payment taken yet, is that sounding correct?

On the UK forums on OP forums. A lot of people had problems with express taking way to long compared to standard. Express can take sometimes up to two weeks as dhl will not deliver without OP telling them they need to. Just ask EddyOS. Standard does seem the way to go. But hopefully you get it quicker then most everyone else who did express. But myself I did standard ordered it Thursday 28-08 received Sat 30-08!!

I actually sold my first one as I had issues with Sky Go not working (not on their white list and it detects the rooted nature of CM11S) and the low in-call volume but I've ordered another one this morning so hopefully gonna have better luck with it on 4.4.4 (as I sold it on 4.4.2). I've got my Nexus 5 for backup for now...

Hmm OK. I do feel like I've started to get problems using 33r. Recent apps don't seem to be closing or opening properly. Which I always had happened to me using cm11. Call volume is abit on and off sometimes yeah. Sky go problem is a pain but I've rooted anyways. I have problems sometimes with audio playback sometimes the music just cuts out it still counts down the seconds of the audio file but no output have to pause and press play again which pees me off. All in all it is an abit of an annoying phone. Plus the never settle motto annoys me. But just going to stay with the phone now though. Need to sell my HTC one max though to make money back.

my brother got his within the week3

I did not recieve any kind of emails. They just delivered the package without any notification. Christmas came early this year!! .
It's actually a funny story. I am staying at my parent'h house right now, babysitting their dogs. My gf told me that a package came for me at our apartment when I was not really expecting one. I was really caught off guard.
I've read reports of people getting emailed that they've been chosen as a tester, but not emailed any shipping information. The laptop just appears on the doorstep.
EDIT: NM, delayed response on my part.

I think I signed up about 2 months ago. It says you can sign up until Dec. 21st. They are supposedly giving 60,000 of them away, and have only shipped 13,000. Good luck!
i signed up for mine last mon or tues and received it that thursday (2-3 days later) with NO notification - it just arrived on my porch
I'm so disappointed...there were two coming to my zip code yesterday and today but neither one was for me. I have a relatively small town of non-tech savvy people too so I was hoping I would get one but it looks like both have already been delivered
btw, for anyone who wants to check if there are any coming towards your zip code (it won't tell you what address for privacy reasons) then you can check out this tracker somebody made for it:

Ya, I checked on that site. There were 2 units coming to my zip code and one was mine
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
2 were delivered to my town so far.. I pray there's still hope for me since there's still a rumored 45k left.
this is a neat netbook. i love the 8-10 hour battery life but honestly, i can get more done efficiently on my Captivate running Assonance 5.0 w/ JL3 modem and it's much faster.
going to put the cr-48 in developer mode over the holidays and install a dual boot of ubuntu to make it a really efficient and useful machine.
I signed up several weeks ago, but no love yet. 2 have been delivered to my zip code but not to me. I did get some GTV love, I got my Revue yesterday so at least I have something to keep me busy between sacrificing chickens to the gods in hope of a CR-48.
***will trade my cr-48 for Revue***
When I get my CR-48 I'll let you know if it's a good trade
I've only had my Revue for a night and I am loving it so far. Once I can get this thing rooted to get around the network blocks it will kick some serious a$$.

[Q] I can't take it anymore...Should I?

Alright...I have been waiting and waiting for a good android tablet...and right now...the Xoom is the best thing out... I know we have a few more options coming down the road...but it is just bugging the hell out of me that I don't have one yet. I just want to know from those that have a Xoom...was it worth it? Do you plan on selling it, returning it, or trading it in for another HC Tablet like the new Galaxy Tabs(sexy),G Slate...HTC whatever....or any others coming down the pipeline? Are the bugs too much to deal with....is the SD card slot not working...that irritating ...does no USB hosting make you want to throw it out the window...Do you get way too many FC's....are you really sick and tired of being shown Mobile Versions of web sites???? I guess my real question is....Are you happy?
Oh...I plan on surfing the web, watching some movies on an upcoming flight, playing some games, checking emails...ummm...facebook...twitter....normal stuff....if that helps at all
It's been one week now and l'm happy with it so far.

The jury's still out. If I get to day 85 of my 90 day Costco return policy and nothing has changed, it's going back. If Motorola/Google can iron out all the bugs, and I see a steady stream of high quality tablet apps, then I'm keeping it.

It's totally impossible to watch a YouTube video while browsing. If you click on YouTube it takes me like 5+ random clicks on anything to hopefully open the YouTube app... and then I pray that it doesn't force close... and if it does open I have to pray it doesn't freeze midway.
I'm with MikeyMike01, but also include the cold ghosting. I posted a question if anyone else noticed it, but only received a single reply saying they didn't notice it. I find it hard to imagine only my unit has the issue though.
I've also had issues with it taking sometimes 20-30 seconds for the screen to turn on after hitting the unlock button on the back.
I initially really liked it, but am now considering getting an ipad2.
I'm contemplating whether the 15% restocking fee is worth it (I got mine at Amazon)

Get it from costco (wifi version) they have a 90 days return policy, anything better comes out during the 3 months am taking it back.

This man speaks the truth.
I am glad that costco gave me a 3 year warranty... however I'm sure I'll upgrade within the first year lol.
Anyways, I love this tablet, I'm very happy I got it, and like he said costco gives you 3 MONTHS to decide if you like it or not! That's ridiculous! They accept returns no questions asked . I've returned the xoom twice and I didn't get asked a single thing. (unlucky with dead pixels)
edit: and costco gives you a free gel case!
At first I was going to buy the galaxy tab 10.1 (original version), but when I did see wifi only Xoom in stock at B&H I couldn't resist and ordered it. I just couldn't wait any longer.
After 3 days with it, I can say I'm happy with it.
Yesterday I started having hangs on the stock browser, I could scroll and zoom, but I couldn't click on any links. Only restart helped. So I removed the apps I installed yesterday and it seems the problem went away. So it seems the browser problems are somehow related to some apps that cause problems.
I haven't had any other problems.
bought it at Costco as well. Actually I'm replying this message on it.
I don't have any major issue with it and I love it! Don't care much about the motor gel case though.
damn thanks guys. Real honest answers....I couldn't wait...well I could but I got really aggravated at the end of the day from general life BS...so I ran out and picked one up to make up for it....Plus youngotta see for yourself. Any ways right? I had a boat load of Best buy reward zone certificates so I picked one up there...I figure I will play with it for a week and return it if I dont like it... but I feel like if I have any issues it will be more with honeycomb than the Xoom...and hopefully Google and Motorola will address them in the future. So far I'm liking it....I'm on it now.....here's hoping for a good experience or decent experience
my biggest complain so far is the screen. It just so washed out compare to my ipad. Heck, my Gtablet screen actually looks better (at the right angle of course). I love honeycomb though. It's a bit confusing at first, but now I don't think I can enjoy using a tablet with a different OS.
I got mine at costco also, so I'm not too worried about new tablets coming out. right now I'm very interested with the transformer. especially with its IPS screen. I just hope that it's built well like the xoom.

Newly produced G2x Today

Well, I've been cringing thinking about getting the G2x due to the large post with all the flaws etc. But after getting over it and going to the T-Mobile store in my area i just received a phone with a manufacture date of 4/29/11 and so far;
No LCD bleeding
No random reboots (as of yet)
No auto shut downs
No wifi issues
No reception issues
Battery life is great (first booted the phone, charged to 100%, then immediately did a factory reset)
So basically if you're interested in getting this phone, don't listen to all the hype (which almost got me to not get it)
Just make sure you're asking for the latest manufactured date.
(either the date has something to do with it, or i'm just 1 lucky son of a...)

Gilbert AZ?
i didnt have a problem with mine until a week i had it, i wish you best of luck and keep updating because i didnt notice those "bugs" till later.
Well this certainly sounds promising to me, as I'm on the waiting list for a replacement and the issues I've had occurred right off the bat. The backlight bleeding is getting worse though :/
Actually i live in gilbert, i picked the phone up in mesa

Which store? I have to referee out at the Field of Dreams tomorrow and I would not mind swinging by to see if they have any more of these pristine phones
It is at the fiesta mall area around alma school
Not to doubt you, but there's no physical way the phone could leave the production line in Korea, get to a shipping depot, make the trans-pacific trip, get to a T-Mobile distribution center in the U.S., and to a T-Mobile outlet in Arizona in four days.

So far it's outstanding but I am mostly on wifi, even when riding subway to work or home.
Seeing your post I actually decided to try to stretch it a bit: fully charged it last night *before* going to bed (very late, like 3AM, still read few articles on the phone) then left it on the nightstand in silent mode (wifi on, screen off, no charger.) Took off in the morning, streamed music during the subway via LTE (~30 mins), now it's 10:20AM and still 82% (not bad since ~1AM) - I'm curious to see how we end up by, say, 8PM. It's on wifi w/ wifi calls enabled here, at work, this should help.

do you have a friend or family with AT&T sim card you can borrow for couple of minutes? It would be really nice to see if you can check if VoLTE works on AT&T I can tell you how to tell if it is working or not if you need help to identify, also another question does the dialer has smart search (are you able to search for phone numbers of places near you within the dialer without having them as a contact) ? or is it the same dialer found on U11?

Question S22 Ultra Samsung lock help

Hi, I purchased a Samsung S22U on Facebook a month ago and the phone got locked by Samsung this morning, saying it was "lost in transit or a trade-in device was never received". Samsung doesn't seem to care and won't even look at all the pictures and messenger conversation I have.
I haven't flashed ROMs or rooted a phone in a decade, but I used to be very familiar with it. Will flashing a custom ROM bypass Samsung's lock on the device, or do you know another method to get around this? This has become a very expensive paperweight. Running multiple IMEI checkers, it doesn't seem to be blacklisted.

So exactly how long you bought it until now? As I know, Samsung allows only 15 days from the day when the previous owner received his phone for trade-in program. After 15 days, they will lock it immediately. Here you said a month ago.

ok, so it's weird because it exactly 1 month from the day you bought it. How much you paid for it?

Yeah, not sure if that's because I waited forever to activate or what. I paid $800, but he had it listed for $900.
You need to contact the person you bought it from. Samsung can't do anything to help you since you didn't buy it from them.

The seller doesn't care, it's meant to be a scam. He's just ignoring my messages. I think I found a way to fix it, but it's going to cost me a little. Seems to be reliable though

Good luck with that. It sounds like you're about to fall for another scam.

Nah, it's a legit business. Hundreds of reviews, thousands of followers, dozens of videos dating eight years back. Can't believe I found it, but it's legit. Talked to the guy on the phone. The real question is: Will the fix last during updates.

So... Phone works great for the most part. Two things can't be done: System updates and using smart switch for data transfer. Otherwise, it is fully functional

If you're still interested, let me know. As said above, you can't do system updates and the smart switch won't work, but otherwise it's fully functional. They are working on the update part, but it's not possible yet

Hi. Can you tell me the person or the business info from were you able to get it working again, as i am in the same situation. Thank you.
Yeah, sorry. I stopped logging into this forum. I also just bought a new phone since I couldn't risk a random nighttime update causing me to lose stuff. Here is the guy... Tell him I sent you. It won't get you any discount or anything, but maybe he will remember me too eventually haha https://www.facebook.com/MNMobileGuy
