cant frekking believe it!

delivery to be made in Surrey address.

the package was in East Midlands.

then suddenly they thought 'oh noes Aberdeen is just around the corner from Surrey! bring it there, hasty!'

so it went to Aberdeen.

they then realized their geographical inability and its now on its way to ..

east midlands again.

:confused:
[Nexus One General] stewart1988:
Woleb up by the door bell!

It's here! :)
[Nexus One General] steeplejack:
Hurrah

Mine's at home, but I'm at work. DHL Driver obviously managed to avoid all the car crashes on the snowy roads this morning!! And got to the house when my wife was actually in for a half hour, that was lucky.

Delivered home but I'm at work, all meetings cancelled due to snow, what to do, what to do?:p
[Nexus One General] m00moo:
Seems like we're on the same journey! although mine now shows it departed Cincinati. Hope it doesnt do a journey around the world before it comes here though.......if it lands in the UK tonight then it should be delivered tomorrow.
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
When did you order? I ordered lunch time 7th :-/
[Nexus One General] neilosb:
Question, I read earlier a couple of people mention the plastic bag on top had had the delivery note removed, mine was still intact with note showing contents still there.

Does this mean some people (i.e. myself) might be lucky and not get charged VAT? or do we think they are all on one pallet and opening a couple is enough to assume all contain the same thing?

pleased people are getting there's now, I got mine on Monday, never been so impressed with a phone, even my iphone friends have to grudginly say its alright, I see their pain.
[Nexus One General] rmd77:
:) i think

Mine changed to this status not soo long ago

Departed Facility in Cincinnati Hub - USA07:14

I think that means its on a plane and I should get it 2moz !!
[Nexus One General] rmd77:
Oooo and not that I need to do this now but I did have some look with google I asked them when my order appeared to be stuck why my card still has not been charged and it still hasn't and it appears to be being delivered :s But I complained about the automated response and got this back :

Hello,

Thank you for your email. We apologize for the previous response.

Please respond to this email with the specific question you've about your

order.

Regards,

The Google Team

Looks like if you complain enough you will get through to a human :)
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
Even when you get a human they just reply with slightly modified 'copy and paste' responses. They seem to love apologising instead of answering your actual question :-/
[Nexus One General] m00moo:
i ordered mine late Friday evening around 9pm GMT. shame about that. seems like they collected enough orders over the weekend to start the shipment for the batch.
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
Yep, annoying as they seemed to be processing US orders as they received them :-/

Last time I ordered from US was some guitar parts (fender locking machine heads) and that took about a week. I just wish google actually answered your questions even after admitting they messed up my order. Can't wait to get the feedback survey :->
[Nexus One General] Abs.:
Got mine on Saturday. Got my invoice from DHL today from VAT + Handling... £61.
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
Cool, no duty charge then :-)
[Nexus One General] neilosb:
not bad at all, was your plastic bag complete with shippin details inside or had they been removed?
[Nexus One General] stewart1988:
I had the shipping details in the plastic sleeve on the box...

Having a problem getting MMS to work on o2! :confused: Cant send or receive tried loads of settings and resetting phone...

Anyone on o2 Simplicity got MMS working?
[Nexus One General] neilosb:
mine seems to be working, but I am on vodafone so guess that doesn't help.

I havn't set anyting up myself or recieved anything from them that would be doing any setting up.
[Nexus One General] :
Just had mine delivered and i am impressed. Now...to root or not to root.
[Nexus One General] thebigshazbowski:
Mine arrived 40 mins ago - all the ppl at work are trying toget their grubby hands on it..

the screen is all smudged now :-(

-----

first impressions - overall - Very Nice.

Build: Good design, appealing curves, not too heavy, good size.

Not liking the smudgey screen and the grooves on the back and front

Performance: 1st boot was slow, subsequent boots are about 20 seconds so not too bad - but still annoying.

Everything else flies as you'd expect (I already have a win-mo snapdragon phone so the performance was on par with expectation). so far evrything is working. Found Vodafone network right away, 3G pumping away. Internet/browsing very fast - loaded pocket-lint.com in about 15 seconds but I could start zooming and scrolling after 5.

So overall - yeah baby yeah! It's definitely worth having. will play with it some more after work and no doubt will enjoy every minute of it..

I'm geeking out over the animated wallpaper! - oh the things that keep us amused eh :-)
[Nexus One General] saquib:
Mine came this morning, same dilemma. Definitely would not root for a couple of weeks, if case any manufacturing defects become apperent. Remember, warranty is voided even for non-root related things. Personally, might hold off until a method for re-locking the bootloader is found.
[Nexus One General] stewart1988:
Got MMS working I think! Just received one using these settings!

Only problem the pics are really small! Anyway I can make it think my N1 is an iPhone and receive higher quality pics? Im sure I could do it on my old G1 but cant remember if it was an app or a Rom :confused:
[Nexus One General] :
Yeah me too, I would love to add tethering, but will wait and put up with it.
[Nexus One General] human_error:
dhl won't deliver because of the "bad weather" - i've been out (in a fiat punto, which is rubbish in snow) and all the roads are fully clear (well from my house to the motorway i've not seen a single b road not clear) so i'm not impressed at all.

Gonna have to go to their depot now :mad:
[Nexus One General] mikkybukky82:
Have been following this thread since 7th.i guess everyone who has received his /hers is happy.mine should be arriving 2morrow.i just called Dhl to confirm my address,no work tomorrow.everything is in check.

i have to spend one more night with my Hd2.
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
Last update on mine is still

1/13/2010 3:06 am	Transit through DHL facility	Cincinnati Hub, OH

So I guess mine is still sitting in US (it's 11:46 EST now and it's been sitting there since 3:06?)
[Nexus One General] m00moo:
wow thats weird? this is my tracking as of now

Mine was in Transit through DHL in Cincinnati AFTER yours, and still mine has departed? have you tried tracking via both USA and UK sites? im pretty sure it must be on the same flight here. Mine should land and be delivered by tomorrow morning :)

Goodluck!
[Nexus One General] daleski75:
I believe that was me. I think google have employed a group of monkeys to randomly hit buttons determining who's get's their's done first.

Hopefully you will get your's soon, mine is suck on credit card declined - retrying for 26 hours and counting.
[Nexus One General] contractor:
must say I am well impressed with both the phone and speed of delivery. No more polished turds (winmo) for me!

Forgot to say. I got the missus an HD2 in December. I KNOW she will be dead jealous :)
[Nexus One General] daleski75:
I have a HD2 so will see which one I prefer.... if or when I get it!
[Nexus One General] Abbsta:
30 hours since my payment went through (after 6 tries) and still nothing. Checkout still shows "CC declined - Retry in progress".

Very frustrating.
[Nexus One General] stewart1988:
Mine just says

Your order has been sent to Google Phone Webstore.

6 Jan

Google Phone Webstore received your order.

6 Jan

You placed an order with Google Phone Webstore on 6 Jan. Google Checkout sent a copy of this receipt to ****@gmail.com

Does that mean they accepted my payment? :confused:
[Nexus One General] Iggy82:
Phone your credit card company if you haven't already. Credit Card companies sometimes decline payments until they have spoken to the card holder due to fraud. Sometimes, it takes them 3 or 4 days to bother phoning you to tell you that they suspect it could be fraud, all they do is check some security questions to verify you are who you say you are, then they verify that you did actually place the order yourself; not some fraudster.

After they've verified it with you, they'll allow the transaction. Just give your card company a call and ask them if they're holding any payments back on your account.
[Nexus One General] Abbsta:
I'm guessing yes as that's exactly what it says on mine that "Google Phone Webstore received your order".

There are posts in Google's help forum that suggest to ignore the messages in the history as it doesn't update for some reason.
[Nexus One General] Abbsta:
Done that already and it's been 30 hrs since Google took the money.
[Nexus One General] Baldyman1966:
I may not have understood this, but you talk about vat on the whole thing, then say Mobile phones are zero rated. If they are zero rated, why would we need to pay Vat on them?
[Nexus One General] efeltee:
You don't have to pay duty (import tax) on a Nexus but you do have to pay the VAT
[Nexus One General] rob61280:
You pay VAT on the phone but not import duty, you pay both VAT and import duty on the charger.

VAT = 17.5%

Import Duty = 6% (I think)

Hope that helps

R
[Nexus One General] mwitha:
just a thought, but can't we claim back any US tax paid?
[Nexus One General] efeltee:
You haven't paid any US tax so no :)
[Nexus One General] tvrf21:
mine is now in the East Midlands! Wooh! Been looking at it all day since it was in the depart facility in Cincinati!

I'm not a phone nerd...honest I am not!!
[Nexus One General] Abbsta:
Can any of the UK users confirm this?

http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/surprise-surprise-htcs-euro-spec-nexus-one-does-multitouch/

Multitouch for European users?
[Nexus One General] TDiDaddy:
Mine's at East Midlands too!

Looks like we are on the same shipment:

1/7/2010 9:12 pm	Transit through DHL facility	East Midlands, United Kingdom

Fingers crossed/weather permitting, I'll get it delivered to work in Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffordshire tomorrow...Then the tricky job of explaining this new phone to my wife:eek:...ByeBye world...It was good while it lasted...
[Nexus One General] arifhanid:
Yeah it definitely has multitouch !

Got mine this afternoon and out of the box there are no applications that support multitouch, but you can download a browser called Dolphin from the Android Market where you can pinch and zoom!!
[Nexus One General] mwitha:

Im frm UK and thinking of ordering 1, I have got one question, Wat if some thing goes wrong on the phone, will it mean i'll have to send it back to US for warrantty or wat?
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
I think they hate me *cry*

Do they all land at the same airport as I'm in Newcastle upon Tyne?

(dhl-usa.com, dhl.com, and dhl.co.uk all list the same tracking, slightly different wording)
[Nexus One General] andrewrees:
When did you all order yours? I ordered mine yesterday morning, and although Google were happy to take the money from my credit card instantly they still haven't shipped it..
[Nexus One General] m00moo:
They all appear to land in the midlands area as I've noticed in all the trackings listed on this thread. Seems as though from there they will go up and down the country. Mine for sure has been flown off, but im unsure to where as I've also seen phones being shipped from US to HK back to US and then UK. Hopefully they got it right as then I will have it with me by tomorrow. The tracking should update for myself at about 9/10pm GMT saying its arrived in the UK. Will report back with details tonight as im off to watch the highly rated Avatar IMAX 3D. lol
[Nexus One General] nyzrox:
I ordered on 6th Jan, Payment was made on the 7th as Debit card declined twice.

Left google yesterday.

Now on a plane somewhere!
[Nexus One General] tallen3:
You've got a way to go yet mine was taken 8 days ago and still no shipped phone. I've also got 3 emails unanswered at the moment. Plenty have people have had a smooth ride though, they've given themselves a 3 day limit so don't worry until thats passed at least.
[Nexus One General] dave_a:
According to flightstats, it looks like it is over North America along with mine and due to land about half an hour early about 11.30pm :)

I really do need to get a more interesting job!
[Nexus One General] nyzrox:

[Nexus One General] rmd77:
Mine is one the same flight as yours our log info are exactly the same apart from it worries me that you profile is in Hong Kong and im in the uk :P
[Nexus One General] andrewrees:
Even three days seems a bit ridiculous when they take payment immediately. I hear they're shipping phones out USA addresses pretty quickly though..
[Nexus One General] ash99:

[Nexus One General] rmd77:
Thank god :P was getting worried . Where abouts do you live ? I live near worcester and I am hoping the snow wont effect delivery tomorrow :D:D
[Nexus One General] nyzrox:
Mine should be on that flight then :)
[Nexus One General] m00moo:
Im in London. So delivery SHOULD and i HOPE will be fine since it lands in the midlands which is only 2 odd hours away. Im off now to watch Avatar at the movies! by the time i get back the flight should almost have touch down! nice to have the flight tracking. At least it shows its on the way to the UK and not anywhere else :D
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
I just hope that the dhl tracking is broken for mine and it's not stuck in Cincinnati :-/
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
Is that in response to me?
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
I did actually say that my shipping info hadn't changed so my package may still be in US :-(
[Nexus One General] mikkybukky82:
My phone is also in your batch.by the way the the thread was going yesterday,i thought everyone on the thread was getting theirs today .

[Nexus One General] rmd77:
I would be really disappointed if mine didn't come tomorrow considering it lands at like midnight tonight :(
[Nexus One General] nyzrox:
Im sure the shipping is next business day anyways so should get it tomorrow people!
[Nexus One General] WhiteHartMart:
You should indeed - plane arrives about 11.30 I believe - mine arrived in the country last night and was on the DHL van fir delivery to Cornwall today - just a shame the wife wasn't in to accept it!

For those that currently have phones above the Atlantic you really should expect a delivery tomorrow!
[Nexus One General] rmd77:
Well we will see I will update here when mine arrives hopefully :P
[Nexus One General] the_bolo:
Exciting stuff, my little handset now looks to be in UK airspace....

I hope they've got my address right, sadly doesnt show a full address on the tracking page
[Nexus One General] kam187:
Mine is in the air too. From other people's tracking i see it should land and clear within the next 3 hours. Plenty of time for it to make its journey down south to me :)
[Nexus One General] rmd77:
:D:D:D:D Its coming in to land now. I am really hoping for a early delivery I dont have to leave for work till 10 . Someone is home all day but would still be nice to take it with me to have a play with it :P
[Nexus One General] rmd77:
ha yeah it does I just really hope it all goes smoothly though :p
[Nexus One General] mikkybukky82:

Mines here too!
[Nexus One General] m00moo:
recieved mine about a hour ago! very nice although my first android and still getting used to it. Noticed the pink spot on the camera :( wasnt there when i first tested and gradually appeared? something to do with the heat generated from the phone i think as my phone has heated up since charging.

I used the cable supplied and plugged it into my old HTC Diamond charger and it works a charm :)
[Nexus One General] rmd77:
Mine hasnt arrived yet :(:( I will be using my old Diamond charger as well :P
[Nexus One General] m00moo:
not sure what to do with the camera issue.

Also another thing im very not used to (or maybe because i dont know how) is how do i close running apps? not sure if its the same for all androids lol
[Nexus One General] andrewrees:
Mine is in Cincinatti still.. how did you guys find out what time the flights were to the UK?
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
Just go back to the home screen and apps will be garbage collected by the OS as needed. If you really need to kill an app then you can use the task manager.
[Nexus One General] BigDamHero:
Don't worry they will. Mine was the same (post code completely scrambled). The Leeds depot said not to worry - as they know Google are fuc*ing up the post codes and they can see where to go from the street address.
[Nexus One General] m00moo:
cool thanks! just also done a search and noticed the same thing! im a android noob as you can so very tell.

@Andrew - sorry i have no idea how they check but from cincinnati it should really be at most delivered by tomorrow :)
[Nexus One General] the_bolo:
Yey its arrived.... miraculously it seems
[Nexus One General] n0ahg:
Mine didn't update on the dhl website until it was cleared for customs :-/

You need to change the user-agent in the MMS app you use. Don't think it's available in the stock one, but use the MMS app from Cyanogen (or enomther), and you'll be able to.

edit: apparently handcent lets you do it too.
[Nexus One General] nyzrox:
Ive been trying to find my Touch HD charger but cant. So just doing it off the laptop.
[Nexus One General] BigDamHero:
Does anyone know the initial charge time?

I'm at work (and didn't think to bring my USB charger from home - didn't order one). I'm tempted to charge it off my computer so I can play tonight. Will it complete the initial charge off USB in 4 hours do you think?
[Nexus One General] trickyhenry:
Don't think i have ever done an initial charge for about 10 years and 30 phones down the line... never had a issue
[Nexus One General] rmd77:
Mine still hasnt arrived :( starting to get worried now :p
[Nexus One General] m00moo:
hope it arrives for u soon mate! need you to report on the pink camera problem for me lol although i have read on the internet and the HD2 has the same problem and can be fixed by a hotfix that HTC should be dishing out pretty soon.

Was kind of worried having a red camera :(
[Nexus One General] nyzrox:
Its fast thats all i can say!
[Nexus One General] wire103:
Anyone in DK got theirs yet?

Yes. Me.

Wow, it's everything I dreamed of. Finally an Android phone with all the iPhone hardware goodness.
[Nexus One General] mikkybukky82:
