77 now - shame, but I just cant like the white version...

Have emailed cyberport asking if we are still on schedule for stock arriving tomorrow and if they know how many...

I still have my Cyberport order for the moment, as I would prefer a Yellow one. :p
 
To be fair a lot of the stuff Google add into Android works well, the problem is that each innovation is totally separate from all the others. This gives an end result of an OS that just doesn't hang together in a coherent and consistent manner.
One of the major things that has impressed me about WP7 and WP8 is how coherent the OS is and how every aspect looks like it belongs together. It is also impressive how so many app developers have bought into the OS design style and help to maintain that platform consistency.

Swiss army knife, you can keep adding more and more facilities into the same space and end up with them all being rather cumbersome to use.

The "open source" community has never been that great for creating usable software. Look at all the fuss about Gnome and KDE, even Linus the creator of the Linux kernel is critical of them.
 
Ok I have my 920 from Clove UK,

The box states:

Nokia 920.1 (Don't know if the .1 is anything?)
CV GB 4G (GB = Great Britain I assume?)

The plug is british and the instructions are too.

Will check its Unlocked now.
 
It quite messy, has all black bits on it (I think they'll wipe off). The sim unlock key is not in the sim unlock key holder and is instead sealed along with the phone. When i tried to put the sim in the phone came on (i dont think i touched any buttons) and the battery is half used. I have no idea if all this indicates it was opened before sending :/
 
Err help, my phone seems to be dead.

It was ok about 30 mins ago with plently of charge I just picked it up and it seems lifeless.

Once I plug the charger in when it is properly dead how long should it take to power back up?

Is there anything I can try?
 
Inserted a Giffgaff sim from my iPhone and... it works :) (after getting sim not inserted... restart and im good to go).

Fantastic any chance of screen telling us the firmware and such in about phone.

Thanks very much, now I know what to flash to for stock GB. And then all I need to do is get this thing unlocked which should be provided by Orange soon!!!
 
Ok my phone is alive again, for reference I had to

Hold Volume Down + Power + Camera buttons until the phone vibrated, then let go of the Power button then let go of the other two when the Nokia logo displayed and it booted up fine. The phone is as was before it had its funny 5 mins.
