I'm sorry to go on about this but I'm anxious to help save any one else the hassle that I'm going through!
Please think twice before buying tomtom's pathetic navigator gps.
My BT GPS mouse has now failed, I have a few days off and so far after 4 days I have not managed to get any reply phone or e-mail. you will get similar 'customer support' :lol:
WHILE I'M TYPING THIS I'M IN A QUEUE TRYING TO TALK TO A TOMTOM SUPPORT PERSON (AS I HAVE BEEN FOR HALF AN HOUR ALREADY!) :evil:
There are no instructions, not even basic, their discs are not labelled except for nos 1-8 (yes! 8 cd's & you try finding the part of the map you want & you need a navigator to find your way around the discs) :shock:
They sell you it with your local country's map, then they sell you you country maps again on maps of western europe, why not sell it as a kit with western europe in the first place :idea:
If, like me, you cross Europe via many different countries you'll be more knackered from the moronic tomtom setup than you'll be from the journey! :?
My GPS mouse has packed up, I've e-mailed but no response, there are no contact no's for UK offices, warranty agents or addresses, you have to phone Holland & wait in a queue for about an hour. their web based support page mirrors their product, inadequate! :twisted:
Now there is a newer V3 which you can buy if you're daft enough, but owners of V2 are being made to wait for the privilege of paying for an upgrade! Ye Gods!!!
I have typed this with 1 finger & I'm still on hold :? :evil: :twisted:
@ this rate I'm going to end up going to their Dutch offices personally as it seems impossible :twisted:
Hey, .
You need to buy the maps for Holland :lol: :lol:
by looking at the date of the post, I guess Chop got it sorted out (or has dropped out completely)
Hey guys,
I'm now using a Universal (loving it!) but had an XDA2s (missing its speed, efficiency, size etc etc).
Trouble is, just sold the XDA2s on EBay for a measily £165 and annoyed that I've misplaced the Stylus just at the point of packaging the thing up ready to ship!
I don't suppose anyone have a spare stylus that they'd like to post to me if I were to send them a paypal payment? I work in the middle of nowhere an hour from my home town, so have no time to get to the O2 shop, would appreciate the favour!
I can't justify spending £10.00 in any shop anyway to buy 3 styluses that I have no use for, particularly having made such a loss on my poor XDA2s!
Here's me begging, hehe!! Appreciate your help!
Cheers, ASh
I have a spare one how much are u willing to pay?
Hey Andy,
Well they seem to go for about £9 for a set of three on EBay, I'm just looking for a quick transaction and no having to wait around for auctions to end.
How much do you want? Appreciate your help!
Cheers, Ash
call it £4 inc p&p.
Email me at andrewchaplin at hotmail dot com
if u want it.
Deal, Check your email ;o)

Arigato gozaimasu!
I'll be in an industrial district/town called LongGang, about one-hour drive from LoHu (the train station on the Hong Kong-Shenzhen border). Will the market be anywhere near there?

from Luo hu, 10 to 15 minitues by Taxi, called "Fu Tian Distric."
Many Building and thaousands of shopes selling parts,
Oh... Fu Tian. I've heard of that place before.
Have you managed to install the new housing? Was it difficult? I heard it is not an easy job.
Seems like someone's going to make lots of money... NOT! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Original-O2-E...itemZ9733399786QQcategoryZ15039QQcmdZViewItem
That price is way too steep... I won't be surprised if he hasn't managed to sell any yet.
tyo change housing, not so easy but can do,,,,,
take time and carfully.
Someboday selling....
becouse my prices are domestic wholesaler prices.. so you can feel
reasonable or cheap/
but once they are in shops in HK,, it will be W-or Triple prices.
I ts no way....
so we must share the information to get cheap one,,,
even me in china ...
i bought some battries for my friends,, at the beggning price was RMB220/pc,
other day i found 150RMB, one more other day,,
found 125RMB/pc
china is the place like this....
work around,,or wallets will be lighter and lighter!
i am still working around to find better!
It's the same in Hong Kong: I once found a shop selling extended batteries for the Dell Axim X50v for $280, but after a 10-minute journey I found another shop selling the same batteries for HK$240. Things tend to be cheaper on weekdays in the market place as well.
Do they sell complete body-sets (with keyboard panel and so on), including instructions ?
I have a T-Mobile one, but would kill for an unbranded cover (especially a black one )
now we can found,,
1;Boday and keyboard pannel
2; 3 x parts of Hindge,,,(but some times no in market
4:LCD housing
but,,, the parts are not equal conditions.
*some Housing missing small swithes,,slider siwitches,
also difficult to find Action Buttons curently
*screw nuts which should be inlaid boday are missing,,
some of them have it,
go and vist several shops, then you can compliete
*small ruber parts such like on the bottom, are not available yet,,
but some of parts can be used from your current device.
Manual is on Dvelopers.com FTP,
Sorry for being geeky but have you seen any HTC-branded housings? It'd be pretty cool to have one.
I do not remember that I got how many "friendly" clew from eBay,net,newspaper and TV, that do not ship any item to Italy. And last week, my dell latitud cpx series laptop battery was shut down,I need a replacement battery for my dell laptop battery urgently.In fact,finally I got it from http://www.my-batteries.net and paid it already.Now I got an email that they do not ship to Italy,and give me a full refund and say Sorry to me ? Where I can purchase my dell 1691p laptop battery is ? I ask this question to many sellers on the net,Got one answer,most of the package was lost in Itlay due to the very bad Italian Post Office:
Why ??? Itlay is on the moon!!!!!
I an Italian citizen for fifteen years,here Italy gave birth to Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Caravaggio, Raffaello Sanzio, Enrico Fermi.now seems to be it is simply the worst place to live on the Earth, with the worst Post Office all over the world.
What's your opinion about Italian Post Office?
"Italy" as a sort of "risky Country",?
i live in italy two.
Yes, the italian postal office sucks, if you want to receive packages from out of italy specially china and HK.
they charge non existant custom fees for anything that arrives out of UE. i did pay 5.16 euro custom fee for an HTC usb to 3.5 adapter that costed 5 euro!

It is becoming a hard place to live in (Italy) indeed, let's say that everything I ordered from Ebay (no matter where it comes from) since last september and wasn't insured/tracked, just got "lost", I can only tell you that I've sued them.
One of my ideas is that Italians (we're talking about politicians here) where very tired of losing their "good reputation" on some other country's hands, so as the craddle of bureucratism and as the first corruption spreader, they've decided to do some serious changes about it, what We all are seeing is just one of the many ways these people are using.
Anybody who lives in Italy (wheter is italian or not), knows that this country MUST do something quickly (about a lot of things, not just the post), and I'll not say anything else.
****... so its the post office.. thoguht i was unlucky
i sent my ameo to italy for 260 quid.. sold it on ebay
and guess wht, never arrived
left me out of pocket
that solves it
*LAST UPDATE*
Got it today. It's big... But I love it. Hope you all get yours without any issues or concerns!

Yup
I ordered on the first day and got Black. I must say it was a bit of an impulse buy but after reading all the reviews and watching the videos I think I will be really happy!
When are they supposed to arrive?
They are supposed to ship them at the of April, so you will get them in May...
By the way, you can get the student discount applied even if you have already ordered..
Simply send them a support ticket with your order ID and voucher ID - you will get €39 back to your PayPal then.
-> final price €360.
They actually refund 40 €
That is an excellent bit of advice, thanks!
Bad news on the delivery times actually as I think I had it in my mind that it would be arriving next week . I'd better remove the ad I put up for the old phone...

How's the screen under sunlight?
Are the speakers loud enough?
Can you please upload the stock camera app?
No idea as I don't actually have it yet These questions and more can be answered once they actually ship it.

Here in US it is on preorder as well. $500 looks like a good deal considering competitors SGS5 $700 and HTC 1 M8 $700 as well. I use phone mostly for playing HD music so audio chip is essential for me. Unfortunately it isn't revealed, so I only keep hope that Oppo being a company putting certain efforts on creation different consumer electronics can do audio reproduction right. I do not know how Kamerton player will look on this so high resolution screen. It can switch to tablet mode and I would like to avoid it.
Anybody else consider SGS5 and HTC 1 and what was your take?

according to some reviews on youtube, the MaxxAudio is quite something to expect.

I've just placed my order yesterday as well.
nice to see another UK user here! XD
Just got the student discount applied! Sweet, thank you Oppostyle
I ordered mine last week. The black US version. Looking forward to it. I hope they start shipping soon!! :good:
I considered both of these but ultimately went with the Oppo because the price was right for an off -contract phone and I'll want to pick up a new one next year after seeing the Qualcomm 2015 roadmap, so not prepared to get tied into an 18-24 month contract!
Also I wanted to give Oppo a chance, they seem to be taking some risks in terms of phone design and I've had the last two Galaxy S versions so something different is on the cards. I may well be the only person in Ireland that buys one, but if there are any other Irish buyers out there you don't have to feel lonely anymore!

I'm in too! With student discount and free gifts I couldnt resist
S5 and M8 are huge disappointments for me... Oppo Find 7a seems to be a perfect phone for me... Just the Color OSwith Android 4.3 and the huge display are things I am not that happy about... But we will see
Picked up mine last month in an Oppo shop in Shenzhen while I was traveling around in China. Very happy with it so far, although I wasn't able to install Google services until yesterday.
Eagerly waiting for some custom roms now!
@vegetaleb: The screen is pretty good under sunlight I'd say. I found the screen to be brighter and clearer than my HTC One M7.
Are the speakers loud enough?
YES! When you turn on MaxxAudio, you'll want to go into the settings right away and turn down the volume. I haven't compared the quality of the speaker to my HTC One yet (it has stereo speakers in the front feat. Beats), but with MaxxAudio turned on you can crank up the bass, treble, volume, etc. This way the sound is pretty awesome for a phone! It's And when using your ear/headphones the sound is just perfect.

Can you say something about the battery life in standby? Would be interesting to know for me who much the device drains per hour when in standby.
Yessss !! I bought the midnight Oppo Find 7a for France !
