So is there a problem with the rom on these? Are they all going to have this issue? What a botched abortion of a launch all round. It's tempting to stick with apple watching all this going on. Unbelievable.

LOL so you can't even use the £250 voucher because there's no market?

He can't use the voucher because he doesn't have it yet .

Expecting to read of other day one owners with these problems but nothing yet - all those with preview handsets haven't commented either.

Feel gutted for yours being like this, but really hope its just a one off??

On the upside, at least GN users can get a phone signal when using their left hand when using the device as its primary function, a phone.

In all fairness, if this is a mess up by Samsung, an OTA will fix it.

I really do feel sorry for you. How frustrating!

Just think how the dude queueing at 12:00AM feels, not only did he queue for 8 hours when at 7:15 there were 7 people waiting, but now he has a phone that might need to be returned .

Through Orange?

This is probably a preview handset video - but it does show the 1st time start up screens - including adding the Google acct (from 3 mins on) - was this option completely missing from the release rom???

Yep that is nothing like my boot screen. I just have a flashing blue android logo. I'm going to take some screenshots of what I can see shortly.

Charging as we speak.

We have some celebrities... Now take a print out to a bar and you can get lucky

@uvarvu if your problem is simply none of your previous apps showing up in the market then it's not a fault it's just a bug that I have noticed. You will just have to redownload them.

If your problem is more serious however then I apologise. I tried to find the relevant post but this tread is sprawling!

He has no Market app .

 

[Cosimo]

The sceen is just fantastic, feels light and fits perfectly in the hand. Now I need to calm down and have more coffee.

 

[WhiteHartMart]

... but do you have Google Apps on yours??

 

[Chiz]

Now I need to calm down and have more coffee.

Haha, I think that may have the opposite effect

 

[uvarvu]

What I can see:

Isn't that what you get when making roms from source or from the SDK. :/ sounds like you have a very bad rom, what does it say in the settings about phone?

Edit: Pictures above.

Which phones4u store is it, want to go and get one. Also, did they say how much stock there is?
