Mine was in the delay also. However, I still received the phone by the expected delivery date of the 15th of this month (actually got it on the 14th). Seems like this is a normal occurrence.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cerobles1:
Nope, just checked mine and still showing as delayed. You know it almost looks like this happens a lot. You would think they would try harder to prevent it. Moto better not F this up or this might be the one and only two Moto phones I ever buy. I've been a Samsung die-hard since the first Galaxy but with the introduction of the S6 it all went downhill for me. LG sucks, HTC is too expensive and Moto had a clear 8-lane highway with no traffic with a 200-MPH sports car to make me their customer... but this dumd a$$3$ forgot to tell the driver he needed to know how to drive a manual transmission and therefore my package is now delayed. Yes that was an analogy, so simple any other company could've done it. Obviously Moto is not up to par with the big boys. Just want my damn phone already. I even took the 28th and 29th off so I would have enough time to play with the phones. #FMLMoto #MotoFailure #BigFail

mine had an expected delivery 10:30 am today in NY as of last night. today it's "pending"

with the last update from friday that its in transit in memphis friday morning.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpinoy:
Mines in the same state since I found out it was on Clearance Delay on Friday(9/25). Called FedEx up, and was suppose to get a call back so I could provide the info they needed(correct value of shipment). Didn't get a call back.

Called them again on Saturday, and I got a call first thing this morning from FedEx, and the lady stated that there is nothing they can do and are waiting on the shipper to provide the necessary paperwork to get it out of 'delay' status. She stated, my item might have no issues at all, but it's part of a shipment of other items(on a pallet), and it can't leave until it gets the proper paperwork... wtf.... she even stated she don't know how long it will be in that state..
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vnphantom:
Motorola support provided some answer into this problem. It seems Motorola ships our phones in patches. And when they reach Memphis port, the patches will be randomly pulled by US customs to check for proper documentation and such. This is usually cleared within 2 business days. That's why Motorola usually adds 2 business days to the estimated delivery time to account for these random customs check.

Here's mine that was stuck in customs random check for 2 days.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aridon:
Mine is still in Customs delay from Thursday night.

Whatever, Nexus announcement is tomorrow. Probably all the best I didn't get my Pure two weeks ago when it was promised.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iazybandit:
Take what they tell you with a grain of salt. All MXPE's that I've seen and even on AndroidCentral (http://forums.androidcentral.com/mo...y-moto-x-style-order-shipping-discussion.html), every package has gone through this "clearance delay"

My first package has gone through it and my 2nd package is also the same.

In AndroidCentral, people have gotten different response multiple times. Ranges from there is no delay, it's just FedEx to the proper documents have been submitted to consumers shouldn't be seeing any of those messages.

Contacting FedEx is a mute point as well because they'll bounce it back to Motorola say that they're waiting for documents, etc.
[Xperia SP General] vvaklnprm:
I have been wanting to post this for a long time..

Terrific hardware and benchmarks alone don't make a terrific phone - one of the key takeaways for me from my exp with XSP.

Good optimised software by the OEM matters a lot to the user experience. I am 100% sure that with support from Sony for at least until the release of Kitkat could have made a huge difference now.

I rooted and flashed a new ROM on my phone approx. 6 months after I bought it. I was frustrated of the Stock ROM with so much lag and bugs after prolonged use.

But after using custom ROMs for almost one and half years, I miss the Sony UI. Every custom ROM (except for few) have the same old bland interface. I got sick of it to be honest, even though custom ROMs have better performance.

Next is the camera performance - another let down for me. Same goes to the phone speaker.

Well, what are your thoughts on the XSP before you go and buy another phone?
[Xperia SP General] TechnoSparks:
This Xperia SP has carved a wondeful meaning into my life.
[Xperia SP General] Araib93:
All I can say is that no matter how hard I try there will be no phone that can replace my XSP.

The notification bar is the best aspect of XSP which cannot be found on new devices (S6 edge tried to replicate but I guess failed miserably). I love to color it according to the apps I use and while there are many phones with RGB Notification LED, none shines brighter than XSP :)

The roms have been hiccups. There were some that I liked but got updated to a point they broke (freezes and lags - staring at you Lollipop)

In terms of games I found many that work flawless on it and some that required more RAM and hence stutter a little but with so much old hardware that is to be expected.

The disappointment for me has been camera... I don't think it is possible for any other phone to tint pictures so yellow. But since I usually don't take pictures all that much it never bothered me much.

Lastly XSP taught me to buy a Z-Series if you plan to stick with Sony (which I do even after they abandoned us - yes yes I still haven't forgotten the betrayal of no 4.4 update, don't say you all have)
[Xperia SP General] vvaklnprm:
Yeah true, those darned Sony guys, this phone has equal hardware to the first Z ,but still they didn't consider us because we paid less
[Xperia SP General] TONYTONYAU:
SP was a good phone

it is a 2013 mid range phone which it beat 2012 flagship phone

just because sony mobile suck
[Xperia SP General] OCDaniel:
The hardware is not bad, screen could be a bit better but otherwise it's OK. The (official) software on the other hand is the biggest piece of **** I have ever seen/used in my life. Although the fact that it looks like crap could be opinion-based, the fact that it runs absolutely horrible and has memory leaks and lags throughout is seen by all of us. Keep in mind as a tech guy I could solve this by flashing a ROM and kernel (even so this stuff is still hella confusing and requires a lot of patience), but remember that the idea of a phone being made is so eveyone could use it without having to do that. I can't even begin to imagine what the average user thinks of this phone. Basically it's phones like this that give Android a bad name and make people want to stick to iPhones. I was really surprised to see everyone having such a positive opinion about the Xperia SP on its forums; you guys seem to love it unconditionally.
[Xperia SP General] headache59:
A good phone. Think I got it free (or was it SGD30?) as an upgrade

My use is now limited to phone calls, whatsapp, sms, and the occasional surfing. Heck, even an old Sony Ericsson is good enough for my purpose ;)

Anyway, time to say goodbye to Sony...and welcome a Xiaomi Mi 4i (tomorrow) :D
[Xperia SP General] |>/\nte:
I have my sp for a bit over a year and a half now. The phone is absolutely not godlike, but over that past 1,5 year I've loved it. It covers my needs and I think it will keep doing so for a long time, thus I have no reason to go and buy another daily driver. But, I'll agree for sure with you on the "I miss the stock ui" part. I'm running a custom rom and a custom kernel for around 4 months (was sick of stock 4.3's random freezes, and I had customized the rom in some ways [kernel, unbloat and such stuff]). While the performance is heaps better, I miss the ui I experienced when I first powered on the phone, so that's why I'm going back to stock 4.1.2 (with another kernel and some mods of course - after all, this is xda god damn it) just to revive some of that......."nostalgia". Other than that, I wouldn't say it's a terrible phone at all. If not anything, it's one of the greatest devices I've used, and I'm happy I own and use one as a daily driver. I'll keep using it this way until it won't be able to cover my needs.
[Xperia SP General] vvaklnprm:
Exactly I don't plan on changing this since it covers my requirements, although I was tempted more than once to do it :P

My Xperia SP which is my first awesome fast smartphone

It took me into a new dimension of android rooting and flashing roms, kernels , bootloader

It has embraced me many type of error while flashing or crashing.

Unfortunately, My Xperia SP squeeze out its last battery percentage and went away....:(

So, My xperia sp's Battery is now dead and is sealed,

A New Monster arrived for me : Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Its my current device and a new replacement for my Xperia SP

The Good news is that sooner or later i will be Replacing the solder battery of the Xperia SP with a new one and bring it back to life!

I would really want to thank everyone in this thread for supporting this phone up till Cm13 (Marshmallow)

I would really want to thank everyone who had helped me along the way!
[Xperia SP General] niruzz:
Good phone but very laggy and stuttering.

I dont blame the outdate ROM but I blame the bloatwares that cant be removed.

I only use my phone for 5 apps no games, and it lags

I used to like Sony but I believe it was taken over by western stocks.

---------- Post added at 12:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:15 PM ----------

I used to switch back to .254 a few times for it is faster than the newer ones. But after a while, it also gaining stuttering.

I recommend you use the pure stock version 3. which remove wares

[Xperia SP General] wax911:
I've had the Xperia SP for almost a year now, and I'll admit it has been one of the worst devices I've ever owned followed by my old Atrix 4G which lacked support. The touch problems, lags of the xperia. I will miss the led notifications and yes some bloat ware which was actually useful on the stock roms. Stamina, Small Apps, Camera App, Bravia Engine lol. The hardware is great and the phone feels solid but Sony just had to abandon it after jelly bean which really ticked me off. What i have learnt now is before purchasing a new phone go on the threads read about it's problems. Before I got this phone I didn't know about it's issues until I had it, but obviously it was too late. Well this is my last year with this device and surely if it wasn't for all the devs working so hard to bring the latest firmware Android 5.0 - 6.0 it would've been frustrating oh yah and the multitasking does suck though
[Xperia SP General] mrjraider:
Well the Xperia SP is a great device, awesome features and so but software is rubbish. And on top of that... the Xperia SP community is rubbish too! Mean users and developers. The lack of respect towards each other. I am happy with my S6 ;) And I do know I wont be getting a Sony phone anytime soon ;)

[G3 Original Android Development] Ragnar:
Just wanted to clarify what the differences are between android and original development. Here are some KEY points by our very own pulser_g2.

The following are most likely “Original Development”:

*Official releases of highly original and upstream custom ROMs (built from the ground up with significant original development within them

*Official releases/development of such original ROMs, perhaps posted by the maintainer or their nominated person.

*A significant “first” in development for a device. Significant is subjective, but it is likely something which took considerable time/effort, and is generally accepted by developers to be significant and non-trivial.

*Kernels which are built with beneficial changes that are not simply pulled from other kernels already available. Some element of original work is expected.

*ROMs where the developer has made a custom kernel for it.

*Tools and utilities with a clear purpose, and which are well-made, and useful to users. They should have an element of originality, either in purpose or through significant improvement in the means of operation.

*Significant port of a ROM from one device to another, giving enhanced features or functionality to users of the target device. The port should be beneficial (a port from two virtually identical devices isn’t original development, it’s winzipping, and nobody really benefits from this, as it’s not development)

The following are most likely not “Original Development”, and should be posted in the “Android Development” subforum:

*Your own “unofficial” stock build of your favorite original, source-built (or otherwise) ROM, particularly where an official or maintainer-endorsed thread exists already.

*Minor derivatives of other ROMs with little or no changes, or ROMs consisting of “placebo” features as a main constituent or claim.

*Renames or rebadges of others’ work – these don’t belong on XDA at all! Refer to rule 12 for more information.

*Reposts of existing ROMs with small changes (i.e. kitchen work, such as adding a couple of apps). If you could realistically distribute your changes as an “addon pack” above and beyond a ROM, you should do so. In addition, your “ROM” would not be original development as it would be substantially identical to the original ROM.

*A thread created with unrealistic goals that are clearly unachievable by those starting the thread. This is not intended to discourage high aspirations, rather to prevent threads porting Windows Phone 8 to the HTC Wallaby. This is pretty much common sense.

*A ROM where a main or significant claim/feature is graphical changes to the user interface (ie. Themed ROM)

You can find all the info for it here. Threads will be moved if they do not meet the "Original" development requirements. Thank you guys and have fun!

NOTE: IF YOU ARE UNSURE WHETHER OR NOT YOUR WORK QUALIFIES FOR OD THEN POST IN ANDROID DEVELOPMENT AND CONTACT A MODERATOR TO REVIEW IT. THANKS!

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CTXz:
Hey there. As a dev myself I will explain you the difference between official CM builds (build = the ROM) and unofficial builds. Official builds are made by the pros. The guys that are in the CyanogenMod group. They know how things work and patch them due their high knowledge. They will try to update the ROM regularly and fix it as well as they can. Then there are the unofficial builds from people like me. It depends what your skills are and with what board you are working (Exynos is a pain in the ass). Not to forget what version of android your device is currently running. Unofficial builds can be buggy and could take some time to get fixed. However devs will listen to the feedback of the community too.

As of the moment, there are no know root procedures for 5.1.1 that have been posted in the Xperia Z1 General section other than pre-rooted FTFs downloaded using XperiFirm through Flashtool. Although - if my memory serves me right - I think I read somewhere here that if you have an unlocked bootloader, you shouldn't really have to worry about rooting as apparently it is easy to get root access.

Use the rootkitXperia_20140719.zip to root your phone

Then flash the C690X_14.4.A.0.157_KernelOnly.ftf back to your phone

If on 5.0.2:

Root with Kingroot

(Optional) Then replace Kingroot with SuperSU

Then install [MENTION=4904057][NUT][/MENTION] 's Dual XZ1 Recovery

If on 5.1.1:

Downgrade to 4.4.4 or 5.0.2 by using [MENTION=2807379]Androxyde[/MENTION] 's Flashtool

Root phone using the steps outlines above

Download a 5.1.1 FTF and create your own pre-rooted 5.1.1 Firmware, OR

Download pre-rooted Firmwares shared by our fellow community members

----

Personally though, If I have a new phone and it's on 5.1.1, I'll just downgrade to 5.0.2 because I can root it without a PC. Just use Kingroot, (optional) replace KR with SuperSU using Terminal emulator, and Baaaammm!!! phones rooted. Then I'll install DualXZ1Recovery, grab one of the pre-rooted 5.1.1, then flash away baby!!!

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] motorazrv3:
You have to use a Windows prog called PRF Creator. With it you can created your pre rooted zip file.

The pre rooted zip file will give you root privileges to your phone. With root you can basically do whatever you want.

To flash the zip you need a working custom recovery on your phone.
