Yep. Jammy sod :) carphone warehouse need to hurry the flip up!

---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:41 PM ----------

Actually carphone warehouse twitter is awash with statements about Saturday delivery!!!
[Xperia Z2 General] arian009:
Dialaphone shipped mine! very happy...
[Xperia Z2 General] dwoodwar:
EE have just texted to say phone should be with me tomorrow. Happy days
[Xperia Z2 General] HlmRan:
I just received said text, also.

Will be with me between 11:00 & 15:00 tomorrow :)
[Xperia Z2 General] numskull:
no text or email saying its been dispatched yet, but my phones4u order has finally changed from "awaiting stock" to "preparing for dispatch"....... as i work nights for a courier company (not dpd unfortunately lol) im now a little more hopefull that ill get it tomorrow
[Xperia Z2 General] shotgunfool:
No emails no text from Phones4U,

Guess im waiting until next week then -.-
[Xperia Z2 General] numskull:
whats the status of your order???? does it still say awaiting stock?
[Xperia Z2 General] shotgunfool:
Yeah, is yours?
[Xperia Z2 General] numskull:
yeah, i want to hear someone say theres hasnt changed lol. I work for a courier company as i said, apparently my order changed to preparing at around 5pm. Im hoping that means they were waiting to be collected by courier this evening, to be sorted tonight and delivered tomorrow.....

edit: sorry i misread (not long woke up) no mine now says preparing for dispatch, if your doesnt say that then im sorry foor you but also pleased as it means mine may already be on its way
[Xperia Z2 General] arian009:
Guys everyone, if you want the Z2 the best deal is probably the one me and few others here got!

It's £29.99 per month, 1GB internet 1000min and Unlimited text.

http://www.dialaphone.co.uk/sony/xperia/z2/black/contract

I ordered it yesterday and got a text today that DPD has it now and will be delivered tomorrow.

Also I got £63 pounds cashback from here http://www.topcashback.co.uk/dial-a-phone/

It's not much, I know but still, every little helps. It's free to sign up just make sure you clear cookies and cache in your browser so it properly registers when you buy the contract. when you are logged in go the link above and go to dialaphone website through the given link. :)

PS I don't mind if you put my email as referral :p;) a.jahanfar0@gmail.com
[Xperia Z2 General] Bezzo19:
I got that deal as well, but I phoned them 2 days ago for it and they threw in the wireless speaker and 50 pound play store voucher for me. Thought I'd be able to sell the speaker for more than the 60 top cash back are offering... You know what they say, if you don't ask you don't get :)
[Xperia Z2 General] arian009:
Serious? What did you say when you called up? I need to learn this trick.
[Xperia Z2 General] mstrflsh:
It has shipped!

Just recieved an email from Phones4U "Thank you for ordering from Phones 4u. We are delighted to tell you that your order has been despatched today by DPD next day."

Hopefully that means by Friday and not Tuesday, if it's earlier I'll follow up with some camera samples and audio recordings.
[Xperia Z2 General] dibdab214:
I just got the same email, however second email from dpd says Tuesday for delivery. Oh well
[Xperia Z2 General] augie7107:
Nice to hear people getting orders shipped. This forum is about to start popping.
[Xperia Z2 General] Bezzo19:
[MENTION=3031117]arian009[/MENTION] I told then I could get the top cash back deal and asked if there was anything they could do :)

Dpd tracker says my phone is out already this morning... It's nearly play time!
[Xperia Z2 General] dibdab214:
Just managed to upgrade my dpd delivery for £5 so it will come today :)
[Xperia Z2 General] Sunnychad:
I got an email at 1am from Vodafone saying Tuesday 22 April 2014, track on DPD and it says Thursday 17 April 2014 then I receive an sms from DPD saying Tuesday 22 April 2014 but the online tracker is the same and the goods are at my depot. All annoyingly close but evidently inconsistent...so I call the DPD helpline and it states Thursday 17 April....

Enjoy your phones as soon as you get them...
[Xperia Z2 General] ddasher:
Stuck with Clove preordering March 12th and no idea when its coming stated delivery is currently early to mid May :(
[Xperia Z2 General] Kamran9558:
Come on you luck SOBs post some pics already :)
[Xperia Z2 General] TheOnlyIntruder:
Doubt you'll get it Friday, it's a bank holiday maybe Saturday though if not Tuesday.

I pre-ordered mine from mobiles.co.uk, anyone else pre-ordered from there have any idea of a due date? I got told "you should expect to receive it by the end of the month", very ambiguous.
[Xperia Z2 General] insom:
Same here even paid.they dont know anything about it and i am so regret couse bought from them.Everything getting delay in that company.its very disturbing situation.
[Xperia Z2 General] lozfromcorby:
Mines at home waiting for me :)
[Xperia Z2 General] gjokic:
we want picture of opening the box please :) :) :)
[Xperia Z2 General] daven:
I've pre-ordered with mobiles.co.uk as well, after some pressing all I got out of them was 'within 10 working days' which evidently is no more than they told you. Although they're owned by CPW so I'd have thought they'd be able to ship at the same time as each other - like with dialaphone and phones4u. God knows.... On the plus side they did confirm that they are expecting the noise cancelling headphones to be included in the box (I was concerned as nothing was mentioned when ordering)

[Xperia Z2 General] wedeservedit:
See my post from the other thread for their excuse
[Xperia Z2 General] shotgunfool:
My Phone has been delivered to my house!

I will upload photos when i get home! Roll on 5pm!
[Xperia Z2 General] paddylaz:
Yes do!

In other news, for those who pre-ordered like me through Carphone Warehouse, looks like SOMETHING is happening. Just received this via email after complete radio silence from them since the day I pre-ordered:

"Thank you for ordering from the Carphone Warehouse.

We will contact you by email once your order has been processed.

Orders processed successfully will be delivered to your selected Carphone Warehouse store within 3 working days* of receiving your dispatch email.

*Orders to Northern Ireland can take up to 4 working days.

The following link provides more information......"

Looks like delivery is imminent (either that or they're sending these out to appease people who are ringing in :)
[Xperia Z2 General] stargate1000:
YES! Finally had confirmation from carphone warehouse! Ding dong.
[Xperia Z2 General] stargate1000:
Sim free in case anyone has ordered the same.
[Xperia Z2 General] Techniks:
Just got the same message for a pay monthly z2.
[Xperia Z2 General] riso123:
You're all lucky buggers. Still nothing on my order from Vodafone :(.
[Xperia Z2 General] ddasher:
Its not Clove's fault its entirely Sonys's who are only supplying the the larger networks and suppliers at present. Clove's original delivery date W/B 7/4 would have been based on what they were told by Sony UK. Clove are a small family run independent from whom I have been buying tech for the last ten years (they started in the 90s selling accessories for* Psion PDAs). They have always provided a good service which is why I am sticking with this order.

On the bright side:

1 Hopefully one will avoid any of the problem early production units.

2 Its still a good deal.

3 Theres nothing wrong with my current SGS3 so I can survive another couple of weeks.

4 I will appreciate it that bit more when it does arrive

5 I am enjoying reading all the Z2, M8 and S5 reviews as they come out and can still switch to one of the other two flagships if I change my mind.

Errata: Who am I kidding? Its the Z2 I want and I want it now but I'll wait as long as it takes. :)**
[Xperia Z2 General] mhunt407:
Mine has been dispatched by CPW apparently for delivery due saturday. I'll remain skeptical until DPD send me the tracking no!
[Xperia Z2 General] rezakazem:
I got my Xperia Z2 this morning from EE - UK. I have to say it is a great phone, although I haven't still messed about with it but It is awesome. :good:
[Xperia Z2 General] 8339923:
tired to place the order (black sim free) from CPW twice, got the same email said unable to continue my order and has been cancelled..

so sad :(

it shows in stock but cant place the order.

Come on people dont be so mean. You have the whole bloody weekend to play with your devices post some pics :)
[Xperia Z2 General] spikeuk76:
I've just pre ordered with 3 UK. When you get your Z2's can you please confirm that the UK gets the noise cancelling earphones and if the magnetic charging dock is included or not?

Mine is not due until the 1st May, although I get a Sony portable wireless speaker included.
[Xperia Z2 General] eve7:
I have been thinking about buying this phone through Clove. How is the item usually packaged? Has it got their branding or logo on the outer packaging?
[Xperia Z2 General] shotgunfool:
I pre ordered with phones4u and got noise cancelling headphones
[Xperia Z2 General] TheOnlyIntruder:
With mobiles.co.uk my order is still saying "order shipped - pending" :'( I was very late in pre-ordering so I know I wont get it till around the end of the month anyway.
[Xperia Z2 General] evolutionisbad:
I've ordered the same. Should get the speakers and headphones but not the dock.
[Xperia Z2 General] Sh4dovv:
Still no proof that anyone received theirs :confused:
[Xperia Z2 General] shotgunfool:
I've received mine.

See photo.
[Xperia Z2 General] lozfromcorby:
I got an email yesterday saying my speakers are on there way. Wasn't even part of my deal but that's great.

So far phone is great. Biggest phone I've owned so far. Put on the google launcher etc. tho as I guess I still to used to nexus/vanilla.
[Xperia Z2 General] ddasher:
Hi all goods are sent in original packaging so the Z2 will come in the branded box as supplied by Sony.

This isn't the US with the horrific network branding they suffer ;)
[Xperia Z2 General] TheOnlyIntruder:
Ok, didn't expect this today on Good Friday, my pre-order with mobiles.co.uk well just received an email saying "We are pleased to confirm that your order has been successfully processed and will be dispatched shortly from our logistics centre."

I wonder if I'll receive it tomorrow or Tuesday?
[Xperia Z2 General] mushtafa:
Just spoke to Vodafone again, he said I should receive it tomorrow or Tuesday at the latest. I just hope it's going to be worth the wait!
[Xperia Z2 General] wedeservedit:
Yep just got the email as well. Looks like the mobiles.co.uk team are working extra hard ...
[Xperia Z2 General] daven:
How early did you guys order? My order status still hasn't changed
[Xperia Z2 General] TheOnlyIntruder:
This might disappoint you (this is why I'm so surprised), I only placed my order a couple of days ago
[Xperia Z2 General] eve7:
Thanks,

I thought Clove would have had their branding and logo all over the front of the parcel. But I wanted to buy this as a surprise without the person knowing what it is untill they opened it.

Now need to decide on colour.... Help

---------- Post added at 12:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 PM ----------

What colour has everyone ordered?
[Xperia Z2 General] corallus:
Anyone on O2 got any updates? Exclusive purple but looking like 2 weeks behind everyone else (except three)
[Xperia Z2 General] HlmRan:
Here are a few roughly shot pics

In the box there was a couple of screen protectors and the noise cancelling headphones. (EE Network) alongside the usual literature, usb cable and charger.

I purchased the Dock and the case myself
[Xperia Z2 General] wedeservedit:
Ordered on 31st March mate. So been waiting for a little while. I'm sure yours will come through today. Guess all that pestering on livechat had some effect.
[Xperia Z2 General] daven:
God knows what order they're processing in then, I ordered about a week ago - I'll hold out hope, fingers crossed for next week.

Nice pictures btw *drool* lol - how's the official case? The design is really nice I'm just not to sure about it keeping itself closed
[Xperia Z2 General] eve7:
When I finally get it I don't think I will get a case. Just a pull tab case
[Xperia Z2 General] daven:
I wish I was brave enough to keep my devices naked, but I find the Z series so slippery - I have a Z Ultra currently and I can't count the amount of times I've been using it in bed only for it to slip out of my hand and whack me in the face.....

I ordered a black one btw, I think I'd have a continuity crisis if the front glass was a different colour to the back but I think that's just my mild ocd kicking in
[Xperia Z2 General] eve7:
I was set on the purple until I found out it is exclusive to o2 ?
[Xperia Z2 General] mstrflsh:
As promised

My Z2 was dropped off yesterday so I took a few pics on the way to work this morning (yep, working even over the Easter hols).

Here are some sample images I quickly snapped: http://imgur.com/a/T3Hqw
[Xperia Z2 General] mhunt407:
Gotta love Bristol on a nice sunny day! Great pics, can't wait to get mine tomorrow.
[Xperia Z2 General] eve7:
Lovely pictures!
[Xperia Z2 General] ddasher:
Sorry thought you were referring to the box itself. Think my SGS3 came from Clove but can't remember the outer packaging. It's simple though all you would need to do is phone them up and explain that you want discrete packaging. They are very helpful.
[Xperia Z2 General] Techniks:
Has anyone got text/email from DPD with tracking info like the text from CPW said we would?

Still hoping for tomorrow's delivery...
[Xperia Z2 General] numskull:
I've had text and email from dpd and i have also rang and spoke to my local depot, i will have it tomorrow. I went through phones4u tho not carphone warehouse...... did your txt from cpw say it had been dispatched or just that you will receive an email/txt from dpd when its dispatched?
[Xperia Z2 General] Techniks:
Same text as the one in the quoted post. - attached pic so i just hope ill still get someting today. When did you get the text/email from dpd? Today? I guess its not worth the hassle ill just wait and see whats what and if it arrivies.
[Xperia Z2 General] numskull:
i got my txts yesterday, i wouldnt hold out for a txt from dpd tho, they supposed to text my time slot when they deliver stuff from amazon, i normally get delivery by 10am then a text around dinnertime saying it'll be with me between 12-5pm
[Xperia Z2 General] chinedu40:
DPD texted me, and mine is now at home waiting for me to come back to after work.

Will post pics later. Funny how CPW twitter account was better informed than the people on the phone!
[Xperia Z2 General] Shaady:
So some of you guys are getting the orders from CPW?

Nothing for me yet...according to DPD its Tuesday now because it got sent too late yesterday!
[Xperia Z2 General] TheOnlyIntruder:
I got a text message yesterday evening at 19:21 to be precise that my "Mobiles order will be delivered on 22 Apr by DPD"
[Xperia Z2 General] chinedu40:
Yeah, I think it depends on when they processed your order. Some got it today. Others will get there's on Tuesday or Wednesday if you ordered a smartband with it according to CPWTweets
[Xperia Z2 General] mushtafa:
Got a message from my brother-inlaw at Vodafone, my z2 has arrived in store for pickup :)

[Xperia Z2 General] Dmands:
Not happy with CPW, despite texts and emails yesterday, alleging Sat delivery, its not happening . . now been told Tue. If anywhere else had stock I would cancel out of principle.
[Xperia Z2 General] TheOnlyIntruder:
It is bank holiday weekend though, gotta remember the stress that DPD will be under today not from CPW but rather from everywhere and anywhere sending parcels as I believe if it were a normal weekend, people would have their devices yesterday, today and Monday rather than today and Tuesday. With all the delays and such that have happened, I'd say CPW and their related divisions have done a pretty good job at getting the orders out when you put this bank holiday weekend into consideration.

While I don't blame you for the complaint of not getting the correct information you would expect, again putting this bank holiday into consideration I would say you're being rather brash and impatient, just be happy you're still getting a top-spec phone before other carriers and other countries for that matter!
[Xperia Z2 General] Dmands:
Its all about customer expectation management - they should not have advertised on their website delivery week commencing 14th April, they then compounded this error by sending emails, texts and on twitter, all stating Sat delivery - just look at their twitter account, a lot of very unhappy folks. Its incompetence as the bank hol should have been taken its account (Easter was scheduled a while ago!)
[Xperia Z2 General] Techniks:
Just collected mine from the store dpd delivered it to them.
[Xperia Z2 General] Dmands:
Yes, CPW stated they had managed to deliver some, happy for you, but was hardly what I wanted to hear.
[Xperia Z2 General] Jejoma:
I cancelled my order with CPW when their support line told me they weren't delivering pre-orders until the beginning of May. Pleased for you chaps who are now getting yours now regardless. Clearly CPW have not the faintest idea what they are doing. How such an incompetent company can survive beats me.

For me it was last week or not worth having since I am now out of the country until the end of the month. Now happy to wait for Amazon and save £50!

[Xperia Z2 General] ddasher:
I walked into my local CPW this morning and was told that if I order today I can have delivery to the store on Tuesday.

In a dilemma now because I have an order with Clove with stated early to mid May delivery, not sure if I should cancel or trust CPW.
[Xperia Z2 General] chinedu40:
Trust them.
[Xperia Z2 General] riso123:
Spoke to Vodafone today online who told me I would get it either today or Tuesday. I'm not home today so would be Tuesday, however, my online order still hasn't changed and I've had no text :(.
[Xperia Z2 General] mhunt407:
Completely agree with your comment regarding setting the expectation. Mine also didn't show even thought CPW and DPD stated it would be delivered today - I had 3 emails from DPD confirming it! Madness. It's off-putting for my first Android pre-order. Never had this issue when preordering iPhones in the past. Apple always delivered on time.
[Xperia Z2 General] plonkersaurus:
I have my phone with no text and online order is still stuck at number 2. It was delivered to a store, theres a whole thread of people on the vodafone forum annoyed at the bad communication
[Xperia Z2 General] rehanraza:
picked up mine just an hour back from vodafone uk store.comes with screen protctor, noice cancellation, power adopter, usb cable and USB OTG cable. mine was the bravia tv promo pre-order.
[Xperia Z2 General] jayc1980:
Yup, I'm one of them!!! Stupid vodafone, but on the plus side, hello EE, hello 10GB data and hello 4G already.

But vodafones attempt at getting these phones out have been dismal!! Told I would not get it today despite waiting in. Then I pop out for half an hour to shop and there it is when a get home, "sorry you was not at home" failed delivery note!!!! Well phone from EE will be here Tuesday (so will vodafones) I lose out on the tv but gain an extra 7GB at EE

Sent from my LG G2 802.

Sony Z2 pre ordered.........
[Xperia Z2 General] plonkersaurus:
I was with T-mobile for 10 years until I left for vodafone last year. Vodafone customer services are crap, I used to really like T-Mobiles but Vodafone work out cheaper for me since they include Spotify which I would pay for anyway and they let you pay £3 abroad and use data like you are home, and when you travel a lot to strange places its priceless compared to how much it cost me on EE. :(.

Phone is nice, being able to draw on the screen with a pencil or pen is pretty cool!
[Xperia Z2 General] riso123:
Will that's promising news for me then. Maybe I will get it on Tuesday after all in that case.

Spoke to Vodafone again today and was told it's with DPD and ready to be delivered.
[Xperia Z2 General] ddasher:
OK folks Black is available on CPW website for delivery to home or store on Tuesday
[Xperia Z2 General] sdfgsteve:
Got a source for this? It will make me unhappy if it's true :(

Also, any news on Amazon preorders?
[Xperia Z2 General] eve7:
I could be wrong, but it's unavailable on Clove, and all the other main phone retailers. And even Very (Also known as littlewoods)

Apparently it's exclusive to o2 for a few months. It was the same with the Z1.

Can anyone comment on the fluidity and smoothness of the os in comparison to say a nexus 5?
[Xperia Z2 General] chinedu40:
I'd say its on par with the nexus 5 if not indeed slightly better in terms of fluidity and smoothness.

Absolutely no lag at all when running multiple applications. Switching the phone on and off is fast, moving between home screens and apps and multitasking is extremely fast. Better to ask this question a few months down the line when we see the durability of the flash storage they use.
[Xperia Z2 General] riso123:
I can compare to the s3 and so far is much smoother even when or after running graphically intense applications.
[Xperia Z2 General] phil_me40:
Ordered mine on Saturday from Carphone Warehouse website.

Being delivered tomorrow ! :laugh:

Going to have to phone Clove up on Wednesday to cancel my order with them!
[Xperia Z2 General] Yaky Peanut:
Are you guys not worried that these ones that are coming out now might have the issues with overheating and developing gaps in the frame?

And I'm surprised people are choosing to order from networks on contract. I figure it's cheaper to pay £550 and get a £15 SIM-only contract than going with a £40+ 24-month network contract. Especially when for £15 a month you get unlimited data with 3, but few other networks even offer that for £40 a month!

Hello,

I'm not new to flashing roms but I've never had this problem before nor can I find any info to help me on XDA or via google.

I can't access any google apps or services, when I try to I'm asked to sign in to google account, so I do but I get a message saying "can't connect to google servers please try again later". I have been receiving this message for three days now.

I can sign in to google fine via laptop & if I sign in via chrome on phone but gmail, play store, maps etc I get the same message. In my phone book/contacts I get lists of all my numbers but no names or pictures beside them, presume this info is on google servers.

I have tried flashing a new rom, new kernel, titanium restore of apps from date before issue, cleared delvik cache & many other tricks but no resolve!

Really strange, anybody experienced the same?
