[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zen123:
Ordered late Wednesday night, checked City Link site this morning saying it had arrived at the depot. Drove 30mins round trip to pick it up as I couldn't wait till Monday. No problems with the order here.

Have to say the SGN is HUGE but at the same time its AWESOME. My SGS2 is feeling a bit threatened right now.

Amazon.de price dropped to 517 euros now :) So tempting....

URGENT! AMAZON.DE WAREHOUSE DEALS AGAIN!

Any german members here willing to buy it for me and ship it to Cyprus?? Please? I think it cost 10-15euros to send it. Thank you in advance!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trancemaster:
Mine finally arrived. It's big, but beautiful! Its a shame I have to work all day so can't play with it. :(

Thanks for the help and advice everybody.

Ordered mine Nov 8th and has been showing on Amazon.de and City Link receiving depot since then. Just spoke with City Link who have said that they have not recieved the package from Amazon yet and as Amazon are so large they have there own scanners at their warehouses which will register it in the City Link system but the package has not physically been sent!

I know from previous posts that similar has happened to others who have ordered. How did you resolve it?

I have just sent an email to amazon.de to see what they claim.

Thanks

I've seen several posts like this, not just on this forum but on another forum too. Time was the great healer, but I think it was up to four days of nothing, following the initial scan, before the tracking data continued to show signs of activity for the people concerned.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waisal:
Thanks for the reassurance mine has been a week now with little sign of activity so getting a little concerned,

It was your thread on HUKD that spurred me to purchase good spot just hope things pull through now.

Any other way to contact Amazon.de other than email or can you call Amazon UK also to chase this up?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
Just ordered mine from Amazon.de. Let's see if it arrives quickly.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnakeManJayd:
Cool.

There were a few people saying that it is cheaper now.

What was your cost breakdown for the purchase if you don't mind sharing?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Super Chimp:
Mine arrived today dead on its estimated delivery date.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
Total it came to was £469.68

Euro was 517 and i think they automatically add the additional tax for uk. So all in all a good price inc delivery.

---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 PM ----------

Just dropped to 514 now
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilskanker:
I am still waiting for my Note.

Ordered on 9 November at around 1am. Been through the usual mess of City Link and Amazon's delivery estimates. At the moment neither company can even locate the item. It was last tracked in Grimbergen (Belgium) on 10 November. 4 days without an update and I am starting to lose hope somewhat - I think I might be asking for a replacement to be sent out soon, although I can't do that until 17 November!

I know not everyone is suffering from the same problems, but it really does seem that Amazon and City Link's partnership is inherently flawed in some way!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andyiacovou:
I had the whole 'last tracked in Grimbergen (Belgium)' farce and it eventually arrived. Ordered 03/11 delivered 08/11 so don't lose hope just yet
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilskanker:
Thanks for the response. I'm trying to keep the faith! Any idea when yours tracked in Belgium? I wasn't too concerned when it did that originally (as I had seen that others had too), but now there hasn't been an update for over 4 days, I am starting to worry...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andyiacovou:
Tracked there on the 5th Nov
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theloginwithnoname:
yep, likewise - just started playing with it now. cant tell you how good it is to type two thumbed on a software keyboard - will post my findings shortly.

(dupe post removed, thanks XDA app!)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnakeManJayd:
Cool, thanks.

Hopefully by the time I'm in London and have an address it will be a little cheaper and they'll still have stock.:)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Super Chimp:
Really good device much better than the GS2 as it doesn't give me anything like the ergonomic problems that did in the same time. Only thing I am less keen on it is that I find the screen on it rather dull.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
Well got my despatch email from Amazon.de

As usual by reading from previous posts city link say they will deliver today but I think we all know this won't happen :) Shall I just stick to the date amazon gave me for delivery which was 17th?

Amazon website says

Datum Zeit Ort Nähere Informationen

14. November 2011 23:04 MILTON KEYNES BUCKINGHAMSHIRE GB Sendung hat das Verteilzentrum verlassen.

while city link says

14/11/11 23:04 These goods have been scanned at the collection Depot and are now on route to the delivery Depot.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilskanker:
Well, according to City Link, my order is still on the way to the delivery depot. Amazon say that my order was last seen in Grimbergen. I say that my order was in my hands late last night after being delivered yesterday afternoon. Seome serious issues with the Amazon/CL tracking it seems. Oh well, love the phone, just need to get a UK charger now.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koniakki:
NOT happy with Amazon.de. Not happy at all. I place an order yesterday for the Note worth of 506.52euros and I cancelled it after 1hour and a half.

Today I found a great deal for a 2 week old Note to buy and I tried to pay and my funds were empty. I called my bank and they said my money are FROZEN.

I talk to 2 different Live Chat support staff and they both said the same bull***t. That since the order was cancelled no charge was made on my credit card.

But yesterday I got the text message from my bank that my account was charged with 506.52euros. They also send me a cancellation message which is the below:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hallo, xxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxx,

wir schreiben Ihnen bezüglich Ihrer Stornierungsanfrage für die Bestellung #028-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx.

Wir konnten den/die folgende/n Artikel Ihrer Bestellung stornieren:

Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 Smartphone (13.5 cm (5.3 Zoll) HD Super AMOLED-Touchscreen, 8 MP Kamera, Android 2.3 OS) blue

Zur Erinnerung: Es werden Ihnen nur die Artikel berechnet, die bereits versandt wurden. Stornierte Artikel einer Bestellung werden Ihnen nicht berechnet. Vielen Dank für Ihren Besuch bei Amazon.de,

Freundliche Grüße

Kundenservice Amazon.de

amazon.de

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

But both Live Chat staff said that NO charge was made since I cancelled the order before the phone was shipped.

Now I will loose the deal and all because of Amazon.de

NOT HAPPY AMAZON! NOT HAPPY AT ALL. Actually f**k that. I'm pissed off.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnakeManJayd:
I had something similar with a different company, and in a different country. So it might just be how banks work.

I bought plane tickets and the transaction half went through and failed because of my banks lame credit fraud facility.

Anyway the money was out of my account but the ticket people said that they hadn't taken the money.

It turns out that with these sorts of payment the money goes to a sort of waiting area at your bank for the funds to transfer so if they aren't they are returned to you after a few days.

Even still I went into my bank and requested that the transaction be reversed immediately and they helped me with that.

Maybe try contact your bank again, with regards to this.

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Jayd
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koniakki:
Thank you Jayd for the response. I did and my banker requested that I provide them with the printed cancellation email Amazon sent me , so they can reverse the transaction.

I had gone a similar case with paypal about 1 month ago, when a seller had problems with his PayPal account but he refunded me the money immediately. But the money were again frozen.

After all the missed deals, hassle, emails, phone calls to the bank and Paypal, I finally got my money(389euros) after 11 days since the refund.

Sometimes, those extra money to buy something hassle free, seem the best option than to save a few pounds/dollas/euro for something.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eppic:
Has anyone here gone through the process of returning a GNote to Amazon.de?

I just got mine Monday afternoon, and although it works perfectly, the screen is stunning, and the S Pen is a cool feature, I am considering going for the GNexus instead (primary issue is lack of NFC, which will be rolled out bigtime in Singapore next year, and I spend most of my time there -- secondarily, GNote music quality doesn't meet my expectations, but most probably wouldn't be as fussy as I am).

I have tried to decipher the Amazon.de website but haven't managed to figure out if they accept returns for products that aren't faulty (would be no problem in the US)...anyone have a concrete answer to that question?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
ARRRRRRRRRRRGH ! I can't wait :) My city link or status on amazon.de hasn't changed since monday night when it was despatched. Still says en route to depot on city link website
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinokirk:
Use Chrome to view the Amazon.de website as it has built in website translation
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waisal:
Ordered mine on the 8th from Amazon.de, neither the Amazon or City Link tracking status has shifted since then, having spoken to City Link they have never recieved the parcel also contacted Amazon who said wait until Nov 17th to avoid double delivery!

Not happy almost 10 days with no progress
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
Was it coming from Milton keynes
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waisal:
Yep thats correct but doesn't look like it was ever at Milton Keynes. City Link state that Amazon have their own scanners at their warehouse which will register it in the system but from then on it is a mystery.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
Im starting to worry now. Is there any one else that didn't receive theirs from amazon?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigelvis:
Don't worry I ordered my note in the morning of Monday 7th and received it on next monday 14th, so it could be the same story.

cheers
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j00pY:
Just chiming in to say that I ordered mine on Friday afternoon (11th) and still haven't received it.

City Link says it should be delivered on 12th despite still saying its in the city link network and not out for delivery yet. I phoned city link this morning and they apparently havent even got the parcel from Amazon.de yet. This sounds all very typical to me, but I think it is just a case of waiting a bit longer for it :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
So strange that some people get it within 2 days of being sent out and other still waiting 5 days +. If its from milton keynes then it shouldn't take long. I can understand if it was coming direct from Germany.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Facchiu:
My note arrived in 4 days in Italy from amazon.de.

Amazon is awsome. The Galaxy Note is awsome.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] indie:
Losing faith in my note being delivered tomorrow as per amazons delivery date. Still no change on either status :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eppic:
Thanks, I was already using Chrome's translation, but the literal translation from German can sometimes result in some nonsensical or at least unclear results (anyone read some of those reviews on the .de site?)...If I am reading the policy correctly, however, it appears that a non-faulty Note may be returned to Amazon.de if postage is paid by the sender, although just reselling it in the UK might be a simpler option.

In any case, I am still on the fence about what to do. Add NFC, ICS and a decent music player to the Note and it would be pretty much ideal (GNexus has at least 2 of those 3)...
[HTC Sensation] bakron1:
I was going back to S=ON and followed the procedure on this forum to the tee. I have done this a few times before and never had any issues.

I powered down the phone after performing the "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" command and now the dam thing will not power back up.

I have tried power + up and down keys and every combination I know of and it will not power back On.

I have tried three fully charged batteries, AC adapter and nothing? Any hep would be appreciated.
[HTC Sensation] dansharpy:
Hi all,

Ive been looking for hours and all ive managed to do is confuse myself more!

Basically im looking for a ROM/Kernel mix that gives me the features i want, these are as follows:

+Beats

+Amaze cam

+Possibility to OC

+Tweaks (most notably the tweak to remap personalise button)

Im not sure if its possible to OC with the amaze cam yet (due to the requirement for ZSL for burst mode) so if its not forget the OC, id rather have the amaze cam.

If anyone knows of a rom/kernel combo that can give me all these features id be massively grateful if you'd let me know (with links and/or versions if poss!)

On a side note, does anyone know of a way to enable Beats when using a different music player from the native one? Im currently using Playerpro. If its not possible then ill just go back to using native player!

Thanks in advance! :)
[HTC Sensation] Gunkk:
Tweaks/Remap personalize - Energy ROM

OC - Bricked kernel (use cam fix).

Beats - Baad's Beats

Amaze cam - nobody has working ZSL drivers yet. Bricked w/ cam fix supports all features but burst ZSL.
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] devsnd:
Hi there.

I have developed a little App, that takes a shortcut to the "Recalibrate Touch Screen" linux binary.

If your device is rooted, the App will recalibrate the touch screen immediately.

If not, it will take you to the last configuration menu, where you just have to push the button.

(Unfortunately I may not post any links.)

It should work for all GEN8 devices.

fomori.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/ArchosTouchscreenCalibration.apk

I have a blog, where you can read how I developed this app.

It's still no premium touchscreen, but it's improved :D

Why not using ?

Parameter/Repair & Formating : Touch screen calibration ?
[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Themes and Apps] berre:
I didn't really have issues with the touchscreen except that at the sides responsiveness could be better so I've tried this...

now my touchscreen is VERY unresponsive! It's really really jerky.

Uninstalled the app, did a normal calibration, reboot etc don't help :mad:

I guess I should have followed my own rule: if it's not broken, don't try to fix it

*edit: I found on another forum a tip to do a calibration via the recovery menu and this SEEMS to help (fingers crossed)

[HTC Sensation XL] dhollaen:
Hi,

I just got my Sensation XL - it really rocks...

As long as you are not heavy in multitasking it is even faster than the standard Sensation - it's at least my impression.

The Solo-headset is impressive although materials seem a bit cheap. But the sound is marvelous - and the Beats-Audiosettings are doing a fine job.

But the best thing: Here in Germany Vodafone sells the device with the generic ROM. It's a 405-build completely without any branding!!! Even the homepage is not set to Vodafone. :-)

I heard that the Solo-headsets are a limited edition, though - here's a good chance to get the Sensation XL with Solos AND generic ROM.

Some additions:

It comes without microSD slot. The internal storage card is 8,93 GB - could be bigger....

It runs on Android 2.3.5 with Sense 3.5.

Cheers,

D

hi, are you able to provide me with a copy of the generic rom? i just got my XL and its filled with vodafone AU extras.

[Defy General] buizon:
Hi There! I would just like to ask if it is possible for me to copy and paste the backup I've done with cwm recovery to my PC and then delete the file from my SD Card? Since it takes up a big chunk of MB on my SD Card (which is 8gb only) I was wondering if it is fine. I'll just restore it to my sd card if I needed it.

Thanks in advance!
[Defy General] juli9797:
Yes you can copy the Backup to your Pc and delete it on your SDcard.
[Defy General] buizon:
Thank you sir!
[Defy General] buizon:
Last noob question sir, can I delete the whole clockworkmod folder or just the sub folder with back up or date for a name/

Thanks!
[Defy General] ryan8r:
It works either way just remember to put them back in their place as they were.

[HTC Wildfire S] madnlooney:
is this class ok for the WFS? looking at this one here
[HTC Wildfire S] madnlooney:
i guess no one uses a class 10 micro sd?
[HTC Wildfire S] vctrdnl:
I use a 16GB Class 10 microSD card (A-Data). No issues whatsoever; I play music and videos without lag; app2sd feature works great. What else would you like to know? Don't consider it too much, just buy the thing! :)
[HTC Wildfire S] bugsome:
I think class 10 cards are for cameras.As long as a phone is concerned anything above class 4 will do
[HTC Wildfire S] madnlooney:
Just wanted to know exactly that, if it worked in the phone with music, videos, lag and ok with app2sd.

Didnt want to buy it and it end up not working and needing a class 6 instead.

Thanks for the reply :)

gonna go grab this now
[HTC Wildfire S] CitizenLee:
I bought this to replace an 8GB class 10:

http://www.mymemory.co.uk/Micro-SDH...Micro-SD-(SDHC)-Card----Class-10-+-SD-Adapter

Works perfectly, albeit on my DHD. My gf now has my old 8GB class 10 in her WFS and that works perfectly too.

So yeah, class 10 FTW ;)

Hi all,

Is there a way to raise the sound volume from Navigon 4.0?

My mediasound and volume settings are all maxed.
[General Questions and Answers] bklaas92:
Also used Navigon before, and indeed the sound volume is a bit low. I have installed CoPilot which is better in my opinion. (CoPilot Live 8 Europe). You could also install another voice which sounds louder. Good luck
[HD2 General] Sonic_Sonar:
Running android on a few of the HD2s we have at the company, I cant remember which ROM etc i put on it (was a while ago) and i dont have the handset in front of me to check (it's in Singapore)...

We have had a few different problems with them in the past which have usually beenfixed by flashing a fresh ROM (which we like to do every so often just to keep things fresh).

Anyway, the latest problem is this: once a day or a few times a week the screen will go really bright on its own and locks, without the phone being touched or having an app running, the brightness and backlight settings are all normal, the power (lock) button is not touched, and the only way to get the screen back to normal is to remove the battery. None of the buttons work while the screen is like this.

So when its just sitting on a table on its own it will go bright and lock (see photo). Any suggestions? I have not tried flashing it again which will be the next step. I dont think its the ROM as it was working fine for 6 months before this started.
[HD2 General] johnerz:
I had a very similar issue a few months ago and for me a clean rom install resolved it, I have no idea what caused it though :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_main_app:
I want to create an app where users add an expiration date and then the app will give them a reminder before the expiration date. I want to have the ability to remind people up to 30 days in advance and have expiration dates that could go up to 6 months in the future. Is using the AlarmManager the best mechanism for doing this? One thing I am concerned about is that in the AlarmManager specifications it says that reminders are lost if the device is powered off or rebooted, which could present a problem. Thoughts?

Thanks
