Really hope they get rid of aus post 🤦♂️Happened one to many times.
Loving this Aussie thread, you guys so much better than the knobs on whirlpool lol.
The old days they would send everything overnight with tnt, if you order something with a battery in it as well it will come overnight, then return it. (pro tip lol)
Same. TNT tracking shows shipment's with a driver. They've got 32 mins to make it before 5:00pm.
Which is a slight improvement on last year, where at midday the tracking showed: delivery attempt made, no one home.
Hello? I've barely left the house since COVID hit, you really think I'd go out while expecting this delivery.
This year, I'm in a Sydney LGA of concern, and am literally not allowed to go out for anything other than food or exercise, so if they want an excuse this time they'll have to be more creative.
And... the doorbell's just gone. No excuses needed, it's here.
Good luck your end!
I have called apple care, and she collected logs on my iPhone and Apple Watch and told me she would reply me in next few days.
So can you outline what you did?
Did you restore new phone from iCloud?
Then unpair and repair Watch?
Thank you ☺️
Congrats on getting your phone!!! 🙌
I just called Star Track who have a dedicated iphone line set up. They said that drivers are working late to catch up because of the strike yesterday, and we are still set for delivery today.
Telstra app updated earlier this afternoon to say it’s tomorrow.
I guess we will see what happens 🤷♀️
Unpaired watch first from old phone, Ended up restoring from my Mac, then restored the watch from my new phone that had the backup on it.
Try calling apple, see apple what they say.
Forgot to ask you how’s the green leather case go with the phone? Any good?
Got any photos?
Here you go.
I found some weird spots / small holes on the back though so it’s going back to Apple.
Rocking the dark cherry now

Looks decent, photos always come out different, what do you reckon, good combo?

Green was my first choice and it looks the best, until I took it outside and saw the weird dots in the sun.
No luck with the watch unlock either. I did a transfer between phones, which asked if I wanted to pair the watch with the new phone, and I said yes. Watch showed in app on new phone and was gone from old one.
Tried a full reset of the watch and paired again, but still no go. I did restore the watch from a backup, but wasn’t going to do a fresh setup and lose my days health data. I’ll wait and see if anyone comes up with another fix.
Can’t do Apple care either, which is odd on a brand new phone. Says it’s not eligible.

Yep I'm having the same issue, have un paired, re paired, reset the watch but no luck.
Just log the bug on the Apple feedback page. The more of the same bugs, the faster they’ll fix it.

Just wait a day or two re AC+. Their servers are probably getting smashed.
I like that Cherry a lot. It shows different shades in different lightening environment which i like.
Will do, and that’s my thinking on Apple care. Got 60 days to sort it anyway, so no huge rush.
Is the phone heating up with this forum like the 12 pro max?
