    It works on the Turkey version supposedly so I'd say its safe to say it'll work on the IRL version too.

    I think the problem with my phone is that I can't disable mirrcast. Can you see if that's possible now?

    Display-cast screen - 3 dots in top right untick enable wireless display.

    Is this what you're looking for?

    Just to update I'm still waiting for my handset to arrive. Complained to Amazon, they told me to hold on.

    "The carrier advised us that they are experiencing difficulties delivering in time a large number of parcels including yours. Just in case if your parcel is not received by Wednesday, 9 December 2015 contact us again and we'll be happy to send you a replacement"

    They gave me £10 refund so if anyone is in the same situation maybe worth your while moaning a bit...

    Yes. I was able to disable it, but the sky go app keeps saying I need to disable it.

    How do you download it? When I go into my settings it tells me my software is up to date but it's version 5.0.2. My phone isn't jailbroken. Is it a case of just waiting for it to appear?

    Go into settings, about phone and software updates. Click on online update, that will check to see if you have the latest version. Worked for me anyway.

    You never want to try update a rooted phone with stock ota updates, best unroot before updating and go back to stock recovery. Or wait for a flashable twrp recovery zip.

    I'm also waiting on delivery from Amazon and got an email to say delivery date 1st December. I cannot find any email address, phone number or chat online to complain. Can you give me the details of how you contacted them.

    If you go into your orders there is a link that says "your order should have arrived please contact us.." only through their desktop website.

    But if you click Help and then look for contact us you should get same result.

    Just hope the bleeding mobile arrives or gf will be pissed!!
