Ordered on the 5th... contacted them because I was wondering why my tracking number didn't work...

"Thank you for contacting us,

We sincerely apologize for the delay in the shipment of the item. Your order was a preorder for the upcoming shipment we had that was delivered to our facility yesterday. Your order was fulfilled and shipped yesterday afternoon.

Best Regards,

Holly"

People who ordered later than I did got theirs already while mine just shipped. They'll get a negative review from me, for sure.

That's the worst part. It's a great product, and a terrible merchant. Torn on how to give a review.

Hey Guys,

Is this product out of stock already? I so want one, but on amazon it says its not in stock :(
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ttabbal:
I think the 6 cycles thing is supposed to be for Android, but a developer that works for google said that it doesn't need it on any modern versions of Android. this was a couple years back. I think he was talking about 2.3 at the time.... In my own low level wanderings through the code, I read through the charge control stuff in the kernel and some other areas. I never found anything that would contradict those statements.

Personally, I have never done anything like that. I run it and try not to leave it dead for any length of time. I get good life out of them both runtime and overall life. The only time mine got low for the N2 was for a few discharge tests done outside the phone.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Khizar:
On every phone I have used I have noticed that if I use the same rom/kernel for a while, after 3 to 4 cycles the battery does get a little better.

Status of mine is "package is left the carrier facility" since December 6th with no further updates.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] jaycb420:
Tracking was just updated. Package is now in transit. Ordered on the 10th at 8 am. For expedited shipping I think this is quite ridiculous. 6 days just sitting. What did I pay the extra 30$ for exactly.

Looks a bad review from my self as well.

You should email a complaint to both amazon and the seller. When was your package supposed to be delivered? I'd assume this week at the latest no?
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] AlShAn:
Ordered mine November 28th, just after it was ready to buy.

same thing here. I ordered mine on December 5th, and have a delivery estimate of December 13th to 18th. My tracking number still doesn't even register on the DHL site. It is getting ridiculous.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] erasable:
I emailed amazon and they won't do anything until 3 days after the latest shipping estimate, so I have 3 days to go. And the seller offered to cancel the order, but that would only restart the process for me and let them off the hook. I wish I knew who sold this other than bastex wireless.

Got my zerolemon about 2 days ago. It is truly a brick. The battery alone is what makes this phone heavy now.

Though not having to worry about charging my phone. I'm still losing battery life pretty quickly. I have about 4 hrs of on screen time, running a custom rom, bluetooth on, gps, tethering, overclocked and on 4G lte the entire time watching streaming video im at 67%.Phone is also super hot :p

You could probably pay the extra and still not even have it in four days. I live one state over from this guy and nothing yet. Hell dhl seems to be worse about updating their system than the post office. According to online tracking my battery made from "bastard witless" to dhl truck and hasn't moved from dhl trick in 3 days! This vendor is a joke as is his choice of delivery methods.

Well after ordering it 10 days ago, seeing its 4 hours from me and still not an update from bastrop to conroe, I'll be hard pressed when I order my next battery. It's bad when you constantly check your mail box, your tracking and still nothing works.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] d12unk13astard:
Damn always sucks hearing these horror stories of people getting shafted on their deliveries. I'll admit mine didn't take as long as most of yours are taking to get in my hands but Zero lemon definitely needs to solve this shipping method problem there having with bastex wireless. This battery and case are amazing I give it a 13/10 on protection and battery life compared to stock, if only they could fix their shipping method in the USA to like UPS or FedEx would significantly improve their image even more.

I ordered it last night. Estimated shipping dated for Dec 24-26 and Delivery estimated dated for Dec 30- Jan 3. I can wait to receive, its not like a organ that needs to be transplanted. I feel for people paying and not getting their shipping worth.

Their shipping method is really is bad DHL Global Mail then passed over to USPS. I ordered back on 12/8 and got an email saying delivery will be between Dec 16-19. Nothing was delivered during those days. I went to check on tracking and it said the package was delivered today 12/20. I checked with the mail lady and the front desk here at the office and she said nothing was delivered to me. Was hoping to have this to play with during my time off but I guess that's not going to happen.

Mine is apparently ready to hand off to USPS as of 5AM today... No idea why it hasn't been given to them yet... Then USPS has to sort it and send it over to the local post office... Usually a couple days, but with Christmas shipping going on and New Years so close... I'll be lucky to get it before 2014. Owell...

I've seen a few companies doing this DHL->USPS thing... Yet I get stuff faster that's shipped directly USPS. Is it cheaper for them or something? Priority mail would have been around $6 unless the prices have changed recently. I could have gladly paid that. Of course, I'd have it now if they sent it when they said they would. pffttt. Whatever. Irritating, but first world problems I suppose. Maybe I'll get lucky and find it in my mailbox when I get home. Wouldn't be the first time I got the item before tracking showed it being local.

Yup. That's what mine says too... Did you try your tracking number on USPS? I've had that work with other shipments before. I don't remember if I ever tried it with this silly DHL->USPS thing though. Mine doesn't show anything there, but yours has been in that state longer than mine has.

Well, to me DELIVERED means it's delivered, don't know where you're from, but Canada is a country, not a home address, lol. I had a lot of stuff sent to me from the States by USPS and normally they pass the package over to Canada post and it all shows in the tracking system.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ttabbal:
Oh, I agree completely. Just pointing out it's not the first retarded thing to happen to people who just want to buy a stupid battery and case. The whole thing should serve as an example of how not to do business on the Internet. Particularly when your customer base is highly connected and informed.

I ordered on the 6th and still have not received it. It was shipped on Monday and since Tuesday, the tracking has said that it's been processed in Grand Prairie, TX. Hasn't moved since then. This is my very first time having to deal with DHL and so far I'm very disappointed. The product is great. But the retailer is not. I ordered on the 6th and wasn't shipped until the 16th. I kinda don't even want the battery anymore :mad:

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] :
Guys, following the instructions, are we supposed to charge the battery 12 hours before use when received or do we first need to drain it to 2%.

That part of the instruction is a bit unclear to me

Also: Are there carkitholders that work with the zerolemon + rugged case and the standard note 3?

I FOUND THIS ONE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6BsGrU9y_U

Did someone tried this out for the Note 3 before? What do you guys think, could this work with the zerolemon battery on it? Could it harm the battery since it's magnetic or nanosuction something?

Don't worry about it. Just use it. I would avoid deep discharge as a general rule, it's not good for lithium cells. Particularly being left there for long periods. But once in a while isn't going to hurt it.

Finally back in stock. I ordered 3 of them, choosing free, $9.99, $19.99 shipping options different for each one to test my theory that paying for expedited shipping is such a scam. I did this once before and low and behold all 3 showed up on the same day. We'll see what happens this time.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] jaycb420:
I'll be interested by the outcome. I complained to Bastex today for not meeting the delivery window. They have not gotten back to me.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] JVogler:
Yeah, I've been obsessed with the fact that I don't think it makes a difference. Every time I pay for the most expensive shipping something always happens (different excuses each time) where I end up getting my package in the same window as free shipping. I'm sure not all companies operate this way, but it seems some I've tested ship everything the same way no matter if you pay an extra $20 or not and just hope you don't complain.

Having never ordered anything from Bastex, I can't speak on the matter. But based on this thread it doesn't appear they are making every effort to be upfront and honest about when items get actually physically shipped out vs. they've just processed the order internally. Everyone eventually does get their item though, and I'm sure Christmas is a nightmare time for shipping.

Instruction might as well have written in a Chinese. Had such hard time understanding.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] KachowPow:
I had to tear out that cheap foam or whatever it was to get to close. I should have done that the first time, I would have still had my latch in order. Instead now I have scotch tape holding it in place. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] repsol_23:
I feel your guys pain. I did the same thing. I broke that cheap latch that supposed to hold the door closed. Thought about why that huge chunk of foam would be there and it dawned on me. The door with foam is in case you want to use your stock battery with the massive case. Pop it in and put door on and see what ya think! I think the outer soft case just goes over the zero lemon battery with no door. At least that's how I have it. Dropped it from about 2 feet onto it's back on the floor and battery stayed in place.

Just my .02

Tap'n & Talk'n on my Note 3
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] ttabbal:
Not that the directions are very good, but I thought they said to leave that door out if you have the extended battery. That's what I did and it doesn't feel like it's going anywhere. And you could use the door with a standard battery and keep the case on. I'm not sure why I would want to, maybe if I were charging the extended battery externally... It will be nice while I do a discharge test as well.

Got mine today. It's late, but at least I didn't pay extra for fast shipping. I would be complaining about it if I had. I guess they could refund the shipping cost, but for 60 cents, I think I'll let it go.

Not having used a case like this before, I found it irritating to open up so I could install it. I got further by just ignoring the directions and going by feel. Once installed, it feels solid and provides good grip. I messed with the holster, but didn't like it. I installed a FlyGrip instead. I might mod the holster and use it on a gameklip. It will need a minor cutout to clear the FlyGrip.
