I was told no by Currys, but it's Currys so you never know.
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
I was told its a google thing so when you register your nexus for the first time no matter where you got it from your get the free content.
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
Hopefully that's true, makes Currys £189 deal even better.
[Nexus 7 General] Fall Guy:
That's what I was thinking.

I believe it's on 1st activation of a N7 to whichever account it's on.
[Nexus 7 General] adamski123:
What's the 189 quid deal?
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
They were £189 with free delivery, so £20 less than google, I think it's finished now.
[Nexus 7 General] Supermaster34:
I read somewhere today that Dixons (sister company to Currys and PC World) confirmed that the Nexus 7 will be delivered on the 19th of July as expected so only 10 days to go!! :D
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
No news is good news
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
Can you actually click through to view your order details. I haven't been able to all day. I keep getting a message to say that there is a technical error.
[Nexus 7 General] Salty Wagyu:
I'm getting a technical error as well. I'm sure it's nothing to worry about though.
[Nexus 7 General] Kas206:
I can see the my order. But get error on the ghost order
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
I've been getting the error all day, not sure if it's a good or a bad thing, they don't want us to know they've already gone for delivery or they've screwed up and deleted everybody's order :confused:
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
Thanks. Glad it's not just me then. Let's hope they fix it soon :D
[Nexus 7 General] jpxdude:
I guess there are still problems with this. Has anyone managed to speak to Currys? :cyclops:
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
I emailed them first thing this morning however I haven't received a response yet.
[Nexus 7 General] Makaijin:
Dixons still exists? I thought they renamed all their stores to Currys Digital.
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
Most certainly does exist still online. Only the bricks and mortar stores were renamed. The actual group that Currys belongs to is DSG where the D was taken from Dixons. Dixons very much lives on as a brand.
[Nexus 7 General] Kas206:
Argos has started taking per orders.

Their shipping date is 7th August. I hope Currys dont push the date back to the 7th too. :-(
[Nexus 7 General] smiah789:
Im also still getting the technical error message, and this is the first thing ive ever pre-ordered in my life , dont mess this up Currys!
[Nexus 7 General] mezzamorphis:
I've just had a call from PC World (DSG) to confirm delivery address and the lady on the phone said Nexus 7 devices are being despatched tomorrow and that my order would be out on Monday.
[Nexus 7 General] Fall Guy:
I've never had a phone call to confirm address from any DSG company before. Why would they need to do that when you enter it in your account setup? Sounds a bit BS!
[Nexus 7 General] mezzamorphis:
The call was due to the delivery address being different from the registered card address (delivery to work). Maybe she had the shipping date wrong, just relaying what I was told.
[Nexus 7 General] Fall Guy:
My delivery address is different to my billing address as well and never had a call. Forgive me if I don't believe this but I'm not getting worked up until I get an email from them and they'll **** the delivery up anyway. An obvious business address and they hand it to the evening delivery courier.
[Nexus 7 General] jpxdude:
I phoned up Currys and they said that they have a system problem which is why the technical error message is showing on the website. They say it'll be back up in about 1.5 hours, but they couldn't tell me anything more about my order when I asked.
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
I phoned Currys cause I cancelled my order via email but rang them to say I want to keep it he said they have had a delivery and sold out on first batch and next delivery is due in on 16th 17th July so can't be too long if you were the first to order the deal you may get your order any day now.
[Nexus 7 General] jpxdude:
I am inclined to believe that something will be announced shortly because I've just read that HMV Oxford Circus will have them in store to buy on Monday.
[Nexus 7 General] Stu C:
I just phoned then due to the technical errors online, and have been told that there are internal system errors, hence the website error. I was told that my order is still in the system. She also told me that no stock had yet come in, and that they were still expecting stock on 19 July. Weird how this is different to what jutley was told! However, Currys also told me that they had 56 orders in the system (this is only orders from Currys not DSG), which strikes me as being a very low number... I wonder if the first x hundred have gone out, and I've just missed the first batch! I ordered on 29 June, so I'll be gutted if I've missed the first batch. :(
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
Well I emailed them yesterday given I couldn't access the website and when I just go home from a bike ride I found a voicemail message on my phone. It was Currys saying that they still expected delivery on 19 July. So that agrees with you were told. I ordered mine on 1st July.
[Nexus 7 General] Stu C:
Sucks that Currys were first in UK to offer pre-order, and it now looks like they will be last to get stock.

It appears that ebuyer are shipping today! :mad:
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
I might switch to Ebuyer if they have any stock left. Will phone Currys first to ensure they definitely aren't going out until next week.
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
The guy at Currys told me they are getting a delivery of 6000 units on 16th and first batch sold out so the 56 that you refer to that are showing as Currys orders could be the ones that missed out on the first batch as this was a super hot deal more that 56 ordered for sure they would of bought it more like in the thousands.
[Nexus 7 General] Stu C:
Still doesn't make sense to me! Most buyers (I would guess) saw the deal that was posted on hotukdeals on the Friday 29 June when Currys first advertised - this deal was popular because it included 5% code and increased Quidco, both of which expired on the Sunday. I ordered on the Friday night... I assume more people ordered over the weekend... so how am I in the last 56 in the queue?
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
I think Currys sales team are telling us a load of porkies as there are so many different stories.
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
I think Currys just don't have a clue what's happening.
[Nexus 7 General] Kas206:
Agree. No one ever really knows anything about electronics when you walk in the store. So I'm guessing its the same over the phone.
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
Well that was a very enlightening call to Currys :rolleyes: Basically they haven't a clue. First I was told that it hadn't been released yet. I advised her that an increasing number of other retailers are now showing shipping info. The line then changed to that they are working through pre-allocated orders and if there is anything going out I'll get an email this evening.

Basically she hadn't a notion. Clearly she doesn't have the info so can't blame her but I do wish CSR would occasionally just be honest and say that they don't have the information instead of BS.
[Nexus 7 General] niks10:
Shipping from Google UK

It seems Google UK is now shipping UK Pre-orders
[Nexus 7 General] Supermaster34:
Hopefully this will mean Currys will also start shipping but I don't want to get my hopes up as it is Currys after all. I'm expecting it to arrive on the 18th or 19th and I would like to have it on the 20th at the very latest but who knows...
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
yes ebuyer seems to be shipping as well looks like curry's have let us down again
[Nexus 7 General] Kas206:
I doubt were going to get a shipment email today :-( I'm hoping its tomorrow like someone else mentioned earlier
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
The thing currently getting my goat is these reviews popping up on Currys for this product. I got one taken down earlier today and another has now popped up so I've fired off another email.

I reckon I'll not see mine until the end of next week. I think the 19 July, which incidentally is when Ebuyer gets another load in, is looking likely. Some that ordered a bit earlier than me may get theirs. However what is clear if that is the case is that they woefully underestimated demand. That would put me off ever preordering with Currys again.
[Nexus 7 General] Big_Den:
Everyone probably already knows this, but we also get the free £15 play credit and extra goodies. So thats nice to know.

Im at the stage where I just want the fooking tablet now. Hearing the ebuyer orders getting through to the delivery stage does give me some hope, but then again 'hope' and 'Currys' dont belong in the same sentence.

Has anyone got an answer/reason for all of the ghost orders?
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
Still no news from Currys & no working website, typical Currys :(
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
I just rang them this morning now she say due in on the 19th they aint got a clue try yourself ring them and i bet you get a different answer.
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
Given that other retailers clearly have stock and Currys don't seem to it seems that Currys placed no initial order and are only getting the second wave of stock.
[Nexus 7 General] gavinfabl:
Really? Where did this come from ?
[Nexus 7 General] Crask93:
XDA Forums noob here.

Just wanted to say I have been following this thread as I too have bought from Curry's.

I'm finding the customer service terrible, i've sent emails with no response like some of you guys, and I would like to phone but I am expecting no reliable information.

I can't believe their 'View order' page is still broken, didn't they say it would be fixed by 1pm yesterday...ha!

We can only hope for progress soon.
[Nexus 7 General] Kas206:
Currys have pissed me off. People who ordered from ebuyer yesterday have already received it this morning. I ordered on the 29th of last month, and theres no sign of shipping.

Curry's can't even manage to run a website properly with ordered not showing up in my account page. Absolute shambles. Never buying from currys again.
[Nexus 7 General] Crask93:
Absolutely agree. I think ill give them a ring for a laugh. Ill report back soon.
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
Good luck, I'd be surprised if they even knew what day it is, let alone what happening with an order.
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
Currys if your reading this get your act together and get the orders out asap if you want to keep your customers.
[Nexus 7 General] Crask93:
Well that's irritating if he's right. He said they expect them in on the 19th, same as what Jutley got from them earlier.

I wish I had switched to eBuyer yesterday. Oh well. All this to save a lousy £10.
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
If they get the on the 19th we'll be lucky to get them on by the 23rd :(
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
there is still hope cause i was told buy a bloke at currys sales they have 6000 coming on 16th.
[Nexus 7 General] CMUK:
Just got off the phone to currys, the guy said they will be getting them in on the 19th and sending them out for delivery on the 20th I told him about other online retailers sending them out now, he just went on about the 19th is when they get their stock :(
[Nexus 7 General] gavinfabl:
Ultimately at some point next week you'll all have one from Currys. Saved £10 plus shipping if bought in store.
[Nexus 7 General] ktz84:
Wishful thinking. Get them in Thursday, process them all and get them out that day and then the courier gets them to us all the following day. I'd say a fair few will not get them until the following week.
[Nexus 7 General] jutley:
HMV are shipping monday 16th is official launch day so lets see what happens
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
Hello everyone, let me first say that I searched the forums and couldn't find any evidence of this being stated so I felt it was appropriate to post a new thread but if any mods feel otherwise please remove as I'm still new and learning. I managed to get a hold of Loco Roco MC the other week and I've been having an absolute blast with it; I had never before played a Loco Roco game since I never owned a PSP. The game really kicked my ass around and finally I looked up a video playthrough of the level that was giving me trouble, level 8. It turns out that this is not level 8 but rather something like 12. Weird. Well I managed to beat it and then there's no more ****ing levels! Am I missing something? Is there a trick to get them to appear or is this only half of the game? I also noticed some of the graphics were toned down and the performance wasn't as hot as it should have been given that it was an exclusive.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] romeo_charly:
I downloaded that game today morning for try it and know what are you talking about, when the download was ok i opened the game and "ok, that's ok... Very funny music and customs" but pressed start and "WHAT T......F...K!!! IT'S ALL ON JAPANESSE!!! I can't understand anything and just for it i'm stock in level 1. Is there another version on english??? Ah??!!
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Mumups:
Only Japanese, it was never released out of Japan
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
Yes, it is Japanese but most games have similar menu setups and dynamics, figuring out what does what was as simple as clicking X (or L+R :)). I'd highly recommend you guys give it a try if all that's scaring you off is the Japanese language format. Still really sad I only get to play eight levels because I was getting really in to the game and could have sworn it wasn't marketed that way :(
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Mumups:
There are more levels when you press triangle. I think you have to unlock them.

See this map square is a level, and so is that paint one?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
For some reason the paint one just takes me to a little video of those bouncy red guys talking and then shows me a picture with an X in it so I guess I have to do more before I can play the (from what I've read) minigame. The other level is a little bonus level/tutorial but beyond that there are supposed to be 8 more levels in the main game. Unless I just need to unlock them, I wish we had someone who speaks Japanese or played the PSP version here :(
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] romeo_charly:
You were right guys!! 1 1/2 day took me to learn how to play this game and yes, it's very very funny!!

100% recomended :-D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] aros2k:
Is it on Google Play? Or have you guys got it 'elsewhere'
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ParanormalBat:
Actually this can be bought on the Japanese PS Store on the device. Through a special offer (or something; can't remember) you can get it for free.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] aros2k:
How can you access the Japanese Playstation store?

why are you suggesting using a toolkit to a user that doesn't know what's happening manually, let alone what a toolkit does.

It will be that much harder to track down any issues that may arise.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Screwhead24:
LOL, I think that's the whole point of the ToolKit.. So the user doesn't have to go through the manual stuff. Kind of hard to mess up on the V7 toolkit. The Dev made it pretty much dummy proof. As long as the drivers(Android 1.0) are installed on your computer you're pretty much good 2 go

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1469909

I beg to differ. Take a look at some of the linked posts in the link I posted above, and you may feel differently.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Screwhead24:
Yeah I'm aware of that thread but 90% of that entire thread are just back and forth post of their experience with other toolkits with other phones and how people should learn how to do it manually and yada yada LOL.. I read that entire thread before I used V7 toolkit to root mines and have to say I don't see what the big fuss is about when someone wants to do it the easy way. It's very simple and very hard to mess up.. All you do is press 1,2,3 ect.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
It's not about other toolkits, and it's certainly not about other phones -- it's a GNex thread... :confused:

It's fine to use a toolkit when you understand how it's doing things, but if you don't, AND something screws up, you'll be right back here with a new thread saying something like: "I used a toolkit to do abc and now it won't xyz", and asking for help. (Did you click on any of the example links in that thread?) Thing is, it is much more difficult to troubleshoot when a toolkit is used, compared to typing in the commands yourself.

Yeah efrant you said it, I don't have your way with words man.

At the end of last year, knowing that I will get a Nexus One and encourage by a relative, I decided to mod my G1.

It was a painful experience, for the XDA devs and Forum members;):eek:, because I was totaly new and inexperienced.

I would like to pay tribute mostly to Frankdrey for his constant and kind help.

I was embarrassed and ashamed:o by my misunderstanding and mistakes. He never gave up on me.:D

I am for ever grateful to him.:) Should I say I hate him for giving me the virus of toying my phones.;)

He was not alone in his help. Demkator brought his much needed contribution too.

I am very thankful to him. And, of course, I took advantage of the outstanding job done by Ezterry.:cool:

Without them I would not have succeeded in rooting my G1.

Without them I would have not learn how to unlock, root, select the right radio, a Rom, a Kernel. Without the knowledge I acquired from them I would not have tried to mod my Nexus One after getting my GSM GalaxyNexus.

Maybe I would have had two bricks.:eek:

If at the time I had found a Toolkit chances are that, during my strugle to understand and implement the different steps to use Adb and Fastboot and to install a Rom, I would have embrace it.:mad:

That is why I fully agree with you, Efrant: we learn and the more we learn the more we increase our capabilities.

As far as my Galaxy Nexus is concerned I am waiting for the OTA to use and play with it.

Then I will unlock it (thanks, Efrant for the tutorial) and put a Rom and apps.

Needless to say I hope that we will be able to install a "unified search" as it is now with ICS 4.04.;)

[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Thanks, that sounds interesting, but I am not sure there is a need for it on the Infinity. Dolphin HD performs exceptionally well (thanks for the info, ray3andrei: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1752809&page=2).

Hi

Correct me if i'm wrong:

1. install the drivers if they are not installed allready

2. tick usb debugging

3. tick unknown sources

4. unzip DebugfsRoot_v1.8

5. connect tab to pc

6. run RootDebugfs.bat

7. select option 1 -Root

8. since haven't go further this step, i don't know what's next till rebooting

that's it? device rooted?

i have a little experience in rooting cause i have rooted my galaxy s a few times, but that phone is almost unbrickable

i just want to be sure i'm doing it right

thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
Yep, that's basically it :)

Then it reboots a few times while pushing some files through adb, you get the Superuser program installed etc. After a few minutes you should have a rooted Infinity.

However, it will be much more fun after installing BusyBox from the Market/Play. It gives you a bunch of commandline tools to play with.

Just remember to charge your device and not to connect any other Android device while rooting.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Alkzn:
I don't understand why you are using the 1.8 version when the 1.9 is there. I used 1.9 to root without any problems.
[Asus Transformer TF700] d14b0ll0s:
There are links to both in the thread I was referring too. Actually I don't see any harm in using 1.8, as 1.9 is just updated Superuser app, which will update itself from Google Play anyway ;) (they had some problems uploading the file to xda btw)
