Yeah the Diztronic and Tudia were the two I was looking at.
Although I might get insurance instead and risk it case-less. Plus I want theft insurance, since that has happened to me before (iPhone 5).
Anyone had experience with insurance2go (or any other insurer for that matter)?

Mine just changed to Shipped today, but DHL only do working day delivery so looks like I'll be looking at Monday for definite. Tracking says its currently at Heathrow.
Got to admit, been very dissapointed with how long its taken to get shipped, 4-5 days isn't really acceptable when I've paid for Express shipping and they are still taking invite only orders. God knows how they're going to manage when they go public release if they still cant keep up at the moment.
I hear ya on that. I like mine but after a few weeks it's starting to look tired.

Whatever you do just don't get official cover or case, they are all junk. I got a white one which does not fit and all four corners start to crack in less than a day. Few days later one corner was completely chip away.
I have Ditztronic and it fits really well. The red look good but stain quickly unfortunately. I usually hate the TPU type case but this one feel really nice.

I know someone who would really like an invite. Anyone got an extra? Preferably one that doesn't expire imminently as I won't be able to give it to him till tomorrow.
I have one invite left, but it expires in 12 hours.

hmm I'll let you know, he isn't responding to texts. If you give it away to someone else that's fine too.
PMed you the invite, just in case.
Lol at this company's customer support. I opened a ticket asking for a return because I wasn't satisfied with the cellular reception. In my ticket I said I do not want a replacement, but rather just a full return because it was well within the 14 days.
They kept emailing me saying "we haven't forgot about you." Now 10 days later I get an email saying to change my apn settings because that is why I'm getting bad service. They didn't even acknowledge that I was asking for a return. Mind you I am now out of the 14 day return policy and my ticket is closed therefore I can't return it lol. Thankfully I sold it on Craigslist and got most of my money back.
This company really needs to handle customer service better.

You are getting typical overseas customer support by people who don't speak English as their first language unfortunately. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't speak English at all honestly and are just using google translate. Just file a dispute with PayPal and file a claim. They will refund your money.

I got an invite email but have a lg g3. Can I send that to someone or do I have to buy the phone to get invites to give away? I'm on tmobile and would love to use it but I'm on contract with this phone.

It will just end up with bunch of trolls instead of talking about phone. From my short time with Android and browsing the forum, let just said some people make console war pretty tame by comparison.

Amazon music crash now all the time with the latest update. I have Chrome freeze on me once and have to hard reset but otherwise performance is better overall.
Yeah I've had two lock ups.

What kernel are you guys using. I haven't experienced any issues using Franco kernel with 38R.
BoboBrazil

If you are rooted try out franco. Just flash from TWRP.

You don't even have to root. Just unlock the bootloader and flash TWRP instead of stock recovery.

No, if you want it just download the .zip and flash from recovery. It's better than waiting.

I got tired of waiting so I downloaded 38r from Android Police and installed it through recovery. I am NOT rooted and it worked perfect...just make sure that you are already on 33r before doing this. After installing it, wipe cache and reboot.
I don't know if others have had problems but mine is running PERFECTLY
By the way, with this update, battery life is insane...in standby mode, it burns just 5% over 12 hours....that equates to 10 days.

Probably a Bluetooth speaker.
I had my first random reboot ever with this phone last night. 38R, stock rom, unlocked bootloader and the phone was idle. Hadn't experienced a random reboot before, although I did install a new icon pack so I'm thinking it may be related to that.

That's how I updated mine. I love how easy and fast it is. I did forget to wipe my cache this time...
Cheers! Phone arrived today just before lunch by DHL.
Despite still being a bit miffed about the dispatch times, got to admit, it was worth the wait!
Phone really is a lovely slab of tech. It's nice to be able to stick to stock(ish) android as well for a change for a big phone. Came from a Moto G and its been so nice to not have any manufacturer overlay on top.
Had the 38R update waiting for me as well which was great!
Probably didn't read very well, I meant it was nice to continue that stock feel of the Moto G into the OPO seeing as its a 5.5" size and the rest of the competition has overlays.
