    I ordered on a Monday lunchtime a few weeks ago, and it had arrived by the time I got to work Wednesday Morning. Went for the normal delivery, not express.

    Cheers think with the offer could be longer. Deal is open until the 2nd dec

    Its in my cart so may hold off on pressing the payment until next week so hopefully there when I get home as don't want it to go MIA

    Ordered Thursday, DHL saying it will be delivered Monday.

    That's the FOC delivery option, not the express.

    When would the express option have been delivered? Today????

    I'm thinking of buying one of these myself but never thought of looking on Aliexpress. I've never used the site before, there seem to be lots of different sellers. How do you choose who to buy from and is there an issue with customs charges?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,280 ✭✭✭✭DARK-KNIGHT


    Lads between a 7 pro and a mi 9t pro

    Thoughts?

    I used Hong Kong goldway.they ship ups to London and then DHL to ireland.they guarantee no customs charges by going to the UK first.

    You knows they are being discounted by OnePlus for Black Friday? I have a 6gb/256gb 7 Pro plus two cases on the way for €650.

    The code to use is 2019BF

    Any recommendations on either 7T or the 7Pro. Not a huge fan of curved screens so leaning towards to 7T

    I had the same concern upgrading from an OP5 but went with the 7T Pro and have had no issues with the curved screen at all. I use a OnePlus case and that provides enough grip such that my fingers don't inadvertently tough the curved sides of the screen.

    Checked again and the free case is out of stock

    How did this work out for you, did it arrive when expected?
    Goldway currently showing 30-38 days delivery; was it like that when you ordered?
    Any customs or VAT on importation?

    Hi

    Got the One Plus 7 pro and bumper case and headphone jack

    Just set it up and updated everything but still using my oneplus5 for the moment until I get more time to change everything

    I usually load Custom Roms but want to keep the One plus updates on this phone but want to get rid of some of the preinstalled Google and one plus Apps
    Also want to install Twrp, magisk and Ad Away but not install custom Rom as want to receive the updates

    Anyone used the below tool?

    https://toolaio.tk/

    So if I do unlock the bootloader is it easy to root

    Or is it better to give it a while before Custom Roms come along

    Cheers

    received my phone yesterday, i use this tool since OnePlus 3 and again last night to unlock my bootloader

    All good i don't see any problem with it. just make sure you have downloaded all the correct roms (21BA for Europe) and TWRP for this device.

    So just connected the phone to pc and press the button is it as simple as that?

    Any dummies guide as used something similar on one plus one ages ago.

    Want to remove crap, install twrp and magisk.

    However if I do this then I will have to manually install updates from one plus, correct?

    Ye worked out great.the phone took 15 days to be delivered.they send it via UPS to London first and then from London to Dublin via DHL.that is how the get around customs.get the 256gb version as the oxegen os takes up 29gb of storage

    1. activate developer options first (tap build number x amount of times)
    2. allow usb debugging (inside developer options) and install oneplus drivers
    3. reboot to boot loader using the all in one tool
    4. click unlock boot loader in the all in one tool


    this video is the manual way

    What's the benefit of doing this and does it maintain NFC integrity for Google Pay?

    The OnePlus 7T seems to be available new on Ebay for quite a bit cheaper than directly on the OnePlus site - is anyone aware of a particular disadvantage buying it through Ebay and shipped from an EU store?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,627 ✭✭✭tedpan


    Bought 2 op7s, 8GB, 256GB versions from eglobal yesterday morning, 375e each including shipping, just got the shipping notification. Amazing value at the mo.
