OnePlus One order status has changed from Pending Shipment to Processing - I'm sure that's a backwards step...

 

Same here. Hopefully a couple more days.

Once it changes to shipped you will get a tracking number and you can then track it via DHL website.

When I ordered mine I paid the extra for fast delivery. Ordered at the weekend and it was here by the following Friday.

Got a Nokia Lumia 1020 at the last upgrade and since the recent "denim" update - I am quite impressed with its performance. However, I am considering when my contract runs out, cancelling my contract and spending a minimum of a year without a mobile device. After witnessing travelling around London on the overground/underground earlier this week, every carriage I could only describe as a soulless morgue with everyone's eyes fixated on their devices in silence. I am starting to think I do not wish to be part of that anymore.

I reckon they knew all along that they weren't going to be ready. The way in which they made the statement they would give out free phones if they didn't have it out on time was pretty much the giveaway for me. Butter the customers up before we tell them some bad news.

 

Agreed!

Shipped :) so hopefully Monday.

 

Royal Mail tried to deliver mine today, but I wasn't in. Got to collect from sorting office on Monday :(

 

My mate received his today and he's coming round tonight so I'll still get to have a look.

Sony Z3 arrived on Saturday morning, is getting exchanged tomorrow as the screen is faulty; all discouloured on the right hand side near the power button :(

 

Probably my fault for ordering a refurbished phone as the contract was £8 per month cheaper, so almost £200 over 2 years, a significant saving. I was assured by the person I spoke to at O2 that these were tested prior to dispatch and were 'as new' because they were handsets sent out to customers that were returned before they were actually used. Checking the website it also said they were tested. Obviously not as the packaging was perfect so the item was clearly not damaged in transit and if they had turned the thing on they would have seen the problem Grrrrrr.

 

Fingers crossed tomorrow brings a better phone. I have a feeling something is going to go wrong as the guy in customer services said they were out of stock when he processed the 'swap' on saturday afternoon. I am hoping I get an 'upgrade' to a non refurbished one if this is the case, but knowing O2 I will probably just get my order cancelled!

What shame. So disappointing when things like that happen.

 

The OPO is awesome. Way better even than I'd hoped.

 

How are you getting on @sonofsanta?

@ConnorByrne that should get you out of mowing the lawn for a few months :)

I'll tell you when it turns up :( should be today/tomorrow. TBH I'm not in too much of a rush, because I sort of want OxygenOS to hurry up and be released so I can check some reviews and see what I'd be losing in going from the mature CM to the new OOS. I know the camera app will be stock in OOS, but there are apps available in the Play Store for that, but I have a suspicion other things may be missing as well and it won't be as fully featured as CM12S for a while yet.
