Does anyone know of a Carphone Warehouse store that currently has stocks of stiff hinged phone?
I've just tried 3 stores in Northampton and Milton Keynes (10 phones all silver) and all their hinges have been loose and drop when the phone is held vertical and you type on the keyboard.
Ideally South of Northampton! lol

Are they display models?
If so then they are subjected to day to day abuse from potential buyers
I got mine from C/W, my hinge was very sturdy when new, just be mindfull that it will become slightly looser in due time. I've accepted that it's a design flaw but I'm okay with that, it doesn't bother me.
NORTHAMPTON!! LOVE IT
lol
i don't have much input but i got a bit excited when i saw npton
if your buying handset only then just buy it off Amazon, its cheaper than carphonewarehouse even with next day delivery!
If not then you're just gonna have to keep testing the handsets they offer!
Big up Northampton on XDA lol
I have to use CW as it's the only way I can upgrade my TP2... That or port my number out and then back in.
They were all BRAND NEW from boxes from the store out the back, checked 4 phones in Weston Favel, 2 phones in MK centre and 4 in MK outskirts.
One of the phones in Weston Favel was better than the rest but still not great.
This is what I expect the hinge to do http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DTZ6ecBItE&feature=related. Whatever the orientation then once over-centre the screen should snap to either open or closed and stay there. IMHO there is no excuse for it not doing this and this is what I'm looking for.
Will carry on the search but only have 9 days left on the deal.
The model at carphone seems sturdy I checked
I live like near to you guys

So big news today is that the official OEM metal bands are now available, but where and how? I read posts saying things like ATT has them, but I think they just mean if you order online and wait a week for delivery? I want to see this thing in person before I hand over my money. Does anyone know when BB or any other store will actually carry these?

I ordered mine from AT&T. I definitely recommend buying the metal band, though if you decide on buying the leather band, it's equally as good. Just walk into a store and order it!
i will try to buy this on here.
I ordered from moto, estimated delivery is the 18th.
Ok so you have to order it online then

Yea AT&T and I think Verizon are supposed to have them too eventually probably not till after next week though. In my area even leather band motos are still sold out everywhere so online might be your best bet depending on the availability in your area.

Really? They show as "coming soon" on their website. I wouldn't think the stores would have them yet. I'm gonna go check out my local best buy today. Thanks.
So they are definitely coming soon to best buy, I went today to look at the regular leather band version on the display kiosk, and they already had the labels up for the silver steel one for $299. He said they havent actually come in yet, and probably will Friday. The guy who told me that was wearing a leather one, and I'm pretty sure last time they said Thursday is when they get deliveries, so I'll have to call in every day to make sure.
Well, I ordered a 360 with the silver metal OEM band from Motorola this week and just got confirmation that it shipped. LOL I check like every 15 minutes.
Motorola show November 18th for delivery but Fedex shows the 17th.
So I imagine those that just ordered the band will also be shipping very soon if not already.
I got an email from Moto the second they had it available on their site (Nov 6th or something), and bought one. Received it 2 days ago. The metal band is soooo much nicer than the leather IMO. I had to take a to a jeweler to size it, and apparently the links are the hardest to remove that he had ever come across.
What was the difficulty with the metal band? Were the screws too tight?

Seems like you probably waited too late. Much like the original shipments those who ordered early got them within a week or two. But if you waited a few days to order suddenly you got bumped to a month. This is why I'm just waiting for them at BB now since I know if I get a 14 day wait with Motorola they'll be on the shelves by tomorrow at BB
OK, my new Moto 360 with the metal OEM band was just delivered.
It is now charging. First impressions of the band is it's OK. I have a lot of conventional TV brand watches like Renatos and Invictas and this band feels much lighter and of lesser quality. But then again most of my watches are big and have a 26MM band. SO the bigger bad size may make them feel of a higher quality.
Most watches are shipped with all of the links already installed and you then take them off to re-size them. When I put it on it and secures the clasp it was too tight. At first I was afraid they sent me the 18MM band but those are not even available yet. I did a quick search through the box and did not see any extra links. A better search and I found them in a small cardboard envelope. I was worried that was the size. I think it is another 4 links and I will work on getting re-sized tonight. I bought a watch kit with all the tools and I usually re-size my own watches. We will see how difficult this one is to do.
I ordered this watch on November 8th.

i ordered a moto 360 black with metal band and extra cradle on nov 7th and my order still has not shipped. has 18th ship by date as well..
can you advise what watch tool set you purchased?
Got mine via FedEx today. I ordered it last week when it was announced! Play time?
Also received mine today. I hate fedex though, they left it on my porch in the rain. Didn't even ring the door bell or knock. Luckily my porch is covered. Its really nice, I haven't used a watch in years but so far it feels pretty natural. I was afraid it was going to big on my wrist but it fits just right. I kind of want the leather band now though.
Did you cats get shipping emails? What date did your ship by status state?
I ordered a moto power pack micro after the moto order. The pack shipped from China and I received that a few days ago! Haha
What color did you cats order? Did it come from China? Futan Fre as the shipper?
Hey Ordered like a 20.00 kit from Amazon.
But I just spent the last 15-20 min to get the pins out and no luck. So I will be trying to find a jeweler this week. I think the pins are to small for my PIN tool. I do not want to mess it up so hopefully they will have the right tools for the job. Another thing is my other bands have arrows to tell you the way the pin goes in this bad has no marks.
I Played with it a bit and is pretty awesome. I use a Vera Home Automation controller with an app called Imperihome and it works via voice right from the watch how cool is that.

In November I had a problem where my Moto 360 battery dropped like a rock. About 50% per hour. After a couple of days I called Motorola. Very nice folks. I have a silver Moto 360 with a grey band. They said they'd send a replacement immediately and gave me a FedEx label to return my old one. The next day my original 360 was back to normal. I decided that I'd still do the switch just in case it was a hardware issue.
The replacement 360 never came. I didn't think much of it since my original one was working fine. About a month later I got a call from Motorola saying that my replacement watch was on back order. They asked if I wanted another model. No thanks, I said, I'll just keep waiting. January, same thing. Phone call, my silver one was on backorder, would I like another one. No thanks.
Then, in February the battery burn happened again. But, went away after a reset. They called again in February but this time to tell me that my silver with grey was still back ordered. This time I asked what models they had available for replacement. The only silver one was with a metal band. More expensive? I asked. No, just a one for one replacement. Ok, I said. I'm not a fan of metal bands but I have other leather ones I can use.
It came in two days. In original store packaging with a charger. As if I just bought this at Best Buy. Included was a generic brown box to return my old one. I called and asked if they wanted the old charger, too. Nope. So, I just sent my original 360 with the watch band in the brown box. Now I have a silver metal band and a second charger.
Thanks, Motorola, for great service.
The same thing happened to me. My stainless steek moto 360 with gray band had crack on the back. I was given a runaround a few times. I had to keep calling to ask for updates. After 2 weeks I got a moto 360 replacement with matel band n got to keep the charger .
Hi there,
I am a Oneplus 3 owner from California, USA. a few months ago I dropped my phone and cracked my screen.
Using videos on YouTube I repaired the screen and was using my Oneplus 3 for the past 2 months just fine.
Yesterday I dropped my phone and the screen is fine, but I got purple spots all over the screen to the point where it is no longer usable.
Oneplus has offered to fix my phone for about $100. I find that very fair, but since I've already paid $150 to do that myself the first time I am not looking at sinking $250 into this phone. I'd rather get a new Oneplus 3T.
Is anyone interested in my Oneplus 3? I would sell it for $150 if anyone is interested. or I can sell individual parts like the bottom charging port, or the cameras, battery, etc. I would be willing to piece my 3 out if people need parts.
Sorry for the long post - I felt it was necessary to explain and be transparent for those wanting parts/the phone. I will add pictures once I get a new phone.
This is the most ****ed up delivery in my life. Order, paid, got confirmation. Delivery from one zip in Brooklyn ny to another zip in Brooklyn ny.
Ship it, stuck in nj since last month.
Emailed, left messages, kept me on hold for 20 min, than hang up. After 25 calles, just hang up. Never ever call me back. Tomorrow will stop my payment, fraud.
I placed an order for a punkcase on the 4th,i hope you get yours soon, I am in the UK and my tracking says it's stuck in MT Newark for the last couple of days. Looking at some reviews online apparently they are slow on shipping. I went for the carbon effect case for mine, as I used to have a pitaka carbon effect case on the 2 XL, funny enough the 2XL pitaka case does fit on the 3XL but the cutouts don't align perfectly but everything is still useable.
My order is still in the mail, no updates since 10.30
