Its the web order reference number when you order online it should be in an e-mail when you ordered then put it here https://www.ukmail.com/applications/ConsignmentStatus/Default.aspx

Im going to phone tomorrow to double check that mine is on its way so I can cancel my other pre-orders
[One (M7) General] Maeldor:
Ah, thanks. Are you certain that's it? I assumed it was a T-Mobile number only. They've given me absolutely no indication that it can be tracked; I wouldn't even have known it was sent by UK Mail if you hadn't of said. Anyway, it didn't work for me either, it says there are no records found.

I might ring them tomorrow too.
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
When will I get it?

If your order is received by 5pm, we'll do our best to deliver within two working days. Depending on stock levels, some things may take a little longer, but we'll let you know by email if this happens.

What's more, you can track your order online and our delivery company will keep in touch by text to let you know when it's on its way.

Your delivery will need to be signed for, so if you're not in, your parcel will be returned to your local sorting office depot. You'll get a card through your door explaining how you can arrange a redelivery or collect from the depot.

When i placed my order that was in the e-mail but I get no records found aswell will phone tomorrow let you know how I get on.
[One (M7) General] Maeldor:
Definitely didn't get that in any of the emails they've sent me.

The latest email I've had from them was 22/03/2013, and I haven't had a single email since. It began with "Your order's winging its way to you right this minute so get ready to say hello to your new HTC One", which was a load of bollocks, even the support advisor I spoke to said as much. The only bit about delivery says, "You'll get free delivery as standard on all online orders and we'll try our best to deliver within two working days providing your order is received before 17:00." I have absolutely no idea right now whether it's been sent or not, or when I'll receive it if it has.

And I can't find anywhere on their site about checking the status of an order. As far as I know from My T-Mobile, I haven't even made an order! Where's the orders section!?
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
I cant login to My T-Mobile that I created the other day I`m a new customer keeps giving me an error when I try to login :(
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Just off the phone to t-mobile the guy I spoke today was much better although I still couldn`t get a tracking number from him he said UKMail would text when the phone will be arriving which should be tuesday! I`m still bit worried that I wont get it on tuesday because UKMail still dont have my phone if it`s the same on monday i`ll phone again :)
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
I wonder if anyone's HTC One will arrive in the morning, I pre-ordered a few weeks ago and haven't heard anything since...

- Adam
[One (M7) General] Iamnorthener:
I got mine with EE last week so I suspect TMobile will be rolling out. I have to say on 4G it's amazing.
[One (M7) General] FUNKIT247:
Hi Adam

Uk mail don't deliver on Bank Holidays.

If you have a text message from UK Mail you can track & see where it is.

It should be in your local delivery office awaiting delivery.
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
Yeah unfortunatly i havn't heard anything form UKMail either :( it would seriously suck if they are fulfilling new orders before pre-orders...

- Adam
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Just off the phone to t-mobile they said the phone should be sent out today if I dont here anything by 3pm I`ve to give them another call

Why could they not send out already like CPW I canceled mine last week with them and they had nothing on the system and I got a txt today saying I could track my phone and it will be here today!
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
I guess i had better give them a call aswell then if thats what it takes to get the phone sent out...

- Adam
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
Also just got off the phone to T-Mobile they said my phone had been picked for me and i should receive it this week...

- Adam
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
I just got a txt saying they haven`t forgot about me and will be in touch soon about my delivery I will phone again in a few hrs seems the only way to get the phone is to keep pestering them! :)
[One (M7) General] dobknobby:
Try Carphone Warehouse. I ordered mine on friday (Siver) and recieved it today. . . when i spoke to them on the phone, aparantly they have LOADS of stock in. . .
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
I canceled mine with CPW but still they have sent me one out! Only reason i`m going direct with tmob is the insurance
[One (M7) General] dobknobby:
Thats fair enough, see i dont bother with Insurance, i got it with my Bank (Natwest) . . . and its brill!
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
What insurance deal did you get Jammie? the reason why I'm sticking with T-mob direct is because I've got a great deal on the One, I'm also looking to get some insurance but not sure who to go with...

- Adam
[One (M7) General] Tejstar:
Still no word on my HTC One pre-order either. Will probably call them tomorrow if I don't get any dispatch email before then.
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Its called clone phone fully loaded its £10 extra a month covers loss,theft and damage and you can upload contacts and pics to the cloud and they will send out a new phone with your contacts and pics on within 24hr! I tend to lose stuff when I`m out in town so this is a must!

I looked at 3rd party insurance but heard stories that they can take a while to pay out so your left with no phone

I`m not getting a good deal this is my 1st contract phone :)

If you have mobile cover with your bank they are good but I don`t!

edit : Phoned again the woman said its delayed! she didn`t have a clue I said I ordered because it was in stock last week and should have it this week

Will give them to Thursday if not i`ll just use the one that CPW have sent although that still hasn`t arrived :S
[One (M7) General] Medved77:
I've been patiently waiting but after reading this thread decided to give them a call to ensure I hadn't been forgotten. (Tip - 150 then 3,2,1 to speak to a human)

Operator put me on hold whilst speaking to dispatch and came back with my consignment number for UK Mail, status is collected, delivery expected tomorrow between 9am-1pm. Placed Order on 18th of March through retentions.

At the risk of gloating they gave me an amazing deal to stay with T-Mobile:

Flext 35 (18 Months) £180 calling credit to cover almost anything - including intl calls with Unlimited Internet

Paid £36p/m previously, with discounts reduced this to £23 per month. £69.99 for handset, contract is 18 months again. Works out at £484 for the contract duration!

I just hope that T-Mobile get 4G (or their old contracts are migrated to EE).
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
And heres me thinking i got a good deal!, thanks for the calling tip took me ages to speak to a human which wasn't helped by the fact my phone was playing up aswell. Might have to ring them again now :)

- Adam
[One (M7) General] dobknobby:
You realise that if your with T-Mobile you can migrate to EE at any point of time? ? ? https://shop.ee.co.uk/upgrade-to-ee/
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
3rd phone call today can`t get any tracking information from them and my order still in open status

She said could be 14 days :(

I`m fed up now
[One (M7) General] Medved77:
@dobknobby

Tried that but they can't keep me on the FlexT contract, T-Mobile have stopped doing this for new customers too.

I make heavy use of calling credit to call international numbers so wasn't prepared to change contracts, was pleasantly surprised when they allowed me to stay on the same contract with a 37% discount.
[One (M7) General] dobknobby:
Ah thats fair enough, Yeah i remember those tarrifs, excellent ones if i remember!
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
OK just got off the phone from T-mobile, it was my second attempt today. The guy said my phone was scheduled to be sent out on the 29th, so he looked into it and my order details appeared to be gone from their system (which I'm guessing happens after despatch?). He then put me on hold and after some funky music he said there were some delays with the system due to the bank holiday weekend and that my order is scheduled for delivery tomorrow between 9:30 and 1:30.

After the call i got a text from T-Mobile with the expected delivery times and consignment number :)

I ordered the upgrade around 22nd March

- Adam
[One (M7) General] Nokiacrazi:
I am trying to upgrade from my current T-Mobile contract.

The plan that I am looking at is the £26/m 'full monty' which has 500 minutes, unlimited texts/data. On the website the handset price for this plan is £240. I spoke to upgrades (150), and they said that I can get this plan but with the handset for £220.

However, earlier on Saturday I spoke to someone I know who works for T-Mobile. I went in store and they offered me this plan but with the handset for £190. They recommended that I actually speak to upgrades in case I could get a better deal and if so let them know.

Any advice for getting a better deal?
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
I rang up on a Friday afternoon also after the £26 full monty plan and the handset was £220, i basically said i can find the same deal elsewhere but with a free phone (which also happened to be with T-mobile but i didn't let on about that). The lady came back with a reduction of my monthly bill down to £21.50 which now includes 2000minutes/unlimited texts and data and offered me the phone for £69.99.

I couldn't believe my ears so i confirmed everything and we called it a deal...

- Adam

*EDIT*: the other deal wasn't with a free phone it was actually £140 and i remember saying to the lady the phone was cheaper but i didn't say by how much.
[One (M7) General] compact_bijou:
Cancel, walk away. I'm sending my phone back until they offer me a better deal.

If they don't offer me a better deal I'll go to one of theie many competitors who will.

A couple of hours of my time in exchange for a few hundred quids better discount has to be worth it.
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Your lucky I tried 3 times today and still nothing I`m going to phone tomorrow and not hanging up till they give me a consignment number!
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
I wouldn't be surprised if yours didn't just turn up tomorrow, had i not phoned i wouldn't have known that it was scheduled for tomorrow. The first person i got through to didn't have a consignment number for me even though it was processed on the 29th...

- Adam
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Lets hope I get a wee surprise tomorrow then but I`m thinking it will be processed tomorrow for delivery on thursday
[One (M7) General] dobknobby:
Tell them you want a PAC code and would like to leave T-Mobile as someone has offered it to you for £50 on same deal . . . they should then jump at you . . . works for me all the time. Use someone like 3 or something, they have good deals and are known for Radical Amounts of discount to get new customers.
[One (M7) General] Maeldor:
Never received my phone today like the advisor said last week I would, so I rang to see what's going on. I must say their options aren't very obvious and I had to keep ringing several numbers (I tried 150 to begin with, but it said it couldn't connect on this network! :eek:). Finally got through to someone, and after a few holds, transfers, more holds, I was speaking to someone in the delivery department and he immediately gave me my consignment number and found out it was being picked from the warehouse and should be with me tomorrow. He seemed a bit surprised it had taken this long as it was meant to have been sent to me on the 29th (like the previous advisor had said last week, hence why it should have been here today).

I just checked the tracking myself and it's scheduled for 07:00-11:00 tomorrow :D Perfect!
[One (M7) General] combat goofwing:
I'm on flex 35 its a awesome tariff
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
Thats pretty much how it went down for me today on the phonelines. Hopefully it will arrive tomorrow, think ill phone up tomorrow to add the clone phone option aswell, seems decent enough for a tenner and would probably be alot easier to sort a new phone out with them if anything goes wrong rather than insuring with ProtectYourBubble...

- Adam
[One (M7) General] Tejstar:
Look what popped through the post this morning! Didn't even receive an email saying it was on its way!
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
Great news! I guessed this might be the case for a lot of people today after what the guys on the phone at T-Mobile were saying yesterday...

Mine has also just arrived :)

- Adam
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Still nothing here!

edit : Just got a txt phone will be arriving tomorrow between 11:30 and 15:30 good thing i`m off! :) cant wait!
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Anyone know if I will be able to get my £20 deposit back that I gave to a EE store few weeks ago??
[One (M7) General] dobknobby:
Probably only if oyu chase it mate. . . Be fierce! Remember, Customers are ALWAYS right.. .. .. Or just throw em the trading standards book. . .
[One (M7) General] Adam182:
Great news Jammie you still have it all to look forward to :) Im blown away by this phone, its a fair step up from my Desire S mind...

- Adam
[One (M7) General] compact_bijou:
1 hour review in 2 minutes:

Out of the box: No gaps, no overhang, visually perfect. Feels a million $ in the hand and looks schweet.

Fast as f00k both on the 3G network and Wi-Fi. Smoother graphics than any other device I've used. Everything is instant.

Great screen, hi-res photographs look stunning as wallpapers.

Sounds: tinny and overblown, people on public transport will hate this phone.

I don't use public transport so meh but it's gonna cause fights.

Sounds are great on headphones. ALL of the ring tones and alarms are a bit mimsy.

Blinkfeed is a bit rubbish but it seems to have vanished anyway.

Camera is no more than ok for a phone, video ditto. Nice to have in my pocket but if I want better quality I'll use my other kit.

Seems to be a lot more data collection going on with built in apps and there's a t-mobile services app which needs to go.

9/10 but you knew that anyway.
[One (M7) General] Maeldor:
Received it at 11:30! :D So only 30 minutes later than estimated, but it was a long 30 minutes, lol.

Really gorgeous phone. I was really amazed at how it looks and feels. There's no imperfections at all.

Screen is amazing. The preloaded photos look fantastic.

Bit underwhelmed by Blinkfeed. I was expecting to have it on my home screen, but I soon set it to a separate one. Talking about home screens, I have no idea how to reorder them just yet...

And has anyone noticed how loud the sounds are!? I have the volume set to its lowest setting without being muted and it's still pretty loud!

I'm quite liking stock at the moment, but I'm looking forward to what gets (or already has been) done with custom ROMs when I eventually dare bring myself to unlock and root it.
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Got my phone about 1hr ago

Its amazing only thing bothering me is there is a slight gap at the top between the plastic and metal

Don`t think ill return it it`s not that bad

going to take me a while to get this thing setup up! my first proper smartphone haha :)
[One (M7) General] Medved77:
Also got this slight gap (now you pointed it out!) Negligible though.

Really liked that there is no T-Mobile/EE branding on this at all :) Usually install custom roms to remove this stuff but in 2 minds now if it's worth it currently in these early days.

Can anyone confirm if the phone is shipped unlocked? I'm short of Micro Sims here to test with.
[One (M7) General] Peopleschamp78:
Hello mate do you mind me asking how you kept your flext tariff? As I'm on that one now and I can request my PAC in 9 days but they're not offering me anything like you got? They wanna get me off it by the looks of it
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Got a phone call from the EE store today saying they had stock in and I asked the guy about my £20 deposit and he said would get it back no problem! :)

Anyone know if the full monty plan is capped to 3.8Mbps? Can`t seem to get anymore than that on speedtests
[One (M7) General] Medved77:
They tried to move me on to a different contract, I just stressed that the inclusion of international calls was a necessity and the only reason I stay with them.

It may of helped that I was renewing 2 contracts at the same time, 1 of which I did move to a different provider a week before we agreed the contract for the HTC One so they already knew that I was prepared to go.

Also, do some research prior to speaking to them to find the best alternative contract on offer. Check on the reseller sites e.g. buymobilephones.net and let them know they either need to keep you on the same contract or match the offer you've found. Save them the time of searching through their offers, just say this is what I've found and will accept if I can't keep the benefits of my current contract. They won't be able to match a reseller offer.

They repeatedly told me I was a 'high value' customer, not entirely sure why though as I never paid anything over the contract fee except for using internet abroad so this may have played a part.

Most of all, be polite, friendly and try to find some common ground with the operator, as an example we established that my wife was from the same country as the operators au pair!

Are you offered an upgrade on the same contract on the T-Mobile portal? I was given the option of upgrading on the current contract with no new phone for a 20% discount or same contract price but with a pretty poor choice of new phone. If you have these options available then worst case you should be able to pick up a HTC One X, sell that and contribute a bit towards the One.

Good luck!
[One (M7) General] compact_bijou:
To be fair, about 60% of the UK population can't get that to their home so, on a phone, out and about, 3.8mb/s aint too bad is it? :)
[One (M7) General] jah:
Back in December I was getting 20mbps and now it is capped at 4mbps and worst still T-mobile claim they don't cap. It's just a way to get customers to switch to EE.
[One (M7) General] Peopleschamp78:
Been with them 10 years and spent thousands on handsets and contracts! But at the min I have 50% friends and family discount and they're basically trying to get me away from the flext 35 lol! They said I can stay on my current one but pay £340 for the handset errr don't think so! Or I can go on a full monty
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:
Anyone found any stuck pixels? I have noticed 2 when I had a black background and brightness up max! :(

What would I say if I wanted to exchange it for a new one? I have also dropped the phone when I was out and the metal on the speaker at the top is coming off and there`s a mark on the bottom

I`m still within the 14 days and I have insurance
[One (M7) General] Bebida:
Claim for damage on your insurance they won't exchange if damaged under warrenty
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] heetesh22:
Im using the galaxy s2 with jelly bean installed. I want to use pin unlock but is there something more like the iphone, in android unlocking is a bit slower and has to press 'OK'

after pin. And also using camera directly takes more time as the screen is shown rotating and then we have to insert PIN for that. So if I have to use camera very quick inserting PIN takes time..unlik iphone which offers PIN but for shorcut as we slide the screen up we see the camera already hiding beneath. Any help please?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] alkspo:
1. buy and iphone

lol but android 4.2 has a swipe to side for camera without unlocking
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] QuAn64m:
AW: Iphone style lock screen

Try to set a shortcut on lockscreen to the camera app. ( havent checked if its working)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] heetesh22:
No if I wanted an iphone I wouldnt post it. I just want that 1 feature because it seems quicker and less troublesome
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] mtxx1:
cyanogenmod and aokp rom has this feature,

samsung custom roms may have this too.

i'm using chemeleon rom now and got this feature.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] 1Chef:
I think that he means that on an iPhone you can have pin lock screen set up and your phone secure but if you want to take a picture you can just show the camera with out unlocking the phone. This has been done by HTC and I don't think it is possible currently
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] heetesh22:
Yeah thats what I mean. I want to use quick camera without unlocking with phone still secured. Unlike ios here its slow to execute it like that
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] heetesh22:
Suppose I use a ROM like AOKP to get that feature. How do I restore my back files I do using kies which is saved on PC. Because the new rOM does not connect to lies. Help please

And also if Samsung uses kies, what does a Google phone use to back up?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] 1Chef:
Use titanium backup to back up apps and texts. Everything else should be fine with flashing copy music, photos etc to a computer if you want extra security
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rphlfjrd:
If you are rooted, I suggest you flash SuperNexus ROM following the instructions here
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] heetesh22:
Ive tried the aokp build 5 jelly bean 4.2.2. Though there are some changes in it, the main thing was only the lockscreen as features like photosphere was not available. So is it possible to use the official ROM and still get the lockscreen of 4.2.2 as an app?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] roniez:
Just install lockerpro from market.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] heetesh22:
Ive gone back to official rom as aokp is not very stable and also lack features and details.

Also lockerpro cannot open camera directly without unlocking like 4.2.2
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] eggsterino:
don't know why but this app didn't do the work for me
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] pakhei123:
IT IS COOL THX
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Productigeeky:
Hi.

Creator of LockerPro here. In the last update we added the secure camera from Android 4.2.2 so you can access the camera without having to unlock.

Thanks for your interest for our apps.

Can any one that has there phone please post there speed "browsing" using the speedtest.net app,

Can you post both wifi and Cellular.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riyal:
got this one on another site. It's 4g speed.

Would be great if we would have speedtest from ac WIFI
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steven_belfast:
Holy s**t

Did not think it would be that good, dam shame I can't get 4g

But at least WiFi should be great for me.

The picture is from Mobile Syrup, a canadian mobile site.

It is absolutely true, I'm from Quebec City and I similar (35-40mbps) speed depending my location in the city.

The phone has potential to go up to 100mbps on cellular data network, wonder if theres a single carrier somewhere offering that kind of speed
