Before checking out, will show you the estimate delivery date.


I saw it was 30th Sept - 1st Oct, but some got it earlier. Courts also stated earliest delivery is 6th Oct.So wondering whether it is possible that it can be delivered much earlier.

If not, may as well wait for it to appear in store and buy it. Saves me the trouble of waiting for delivery.

Got the latest iPhone SE, smooth UI with a fast chip, but the battery life is err...

I can't seem to get GPay work on my 4a. I have setup my gpay account, added CC, turned on NFC, but the terminal can't seem to detect my phone. May I know how you pay using GPay? Long press on the power button?

No need long press..Screen wake will do..

First check if location is allowed for your Gpay app. From tech support recently and also from my friend who works in Google SG, you can have either Gpay or Gpay Singapore for it to work or even both and they will still work.

I was encountering issue recently so i did Google Framework Services > Uninstall updates. Remove Gpay app, restart and reinstall then re-add another card.

You can also check Settings > Connected devices > Connection preferences > NFC > Contactless payments. Make sure Google Pay is set as Payment Default and Use default = always before trying the above.

Screen wake as in unlock the phone? Or simply wake it will do?

Just checked I didn't grant any permission to GPay SG, so just allow location access will do?

Actually what's the diff between GPay and GPay SG?

Anyone else using their 4a on TPG network? Data works fine but can't receive or make regular calls. Can't find the volte option anymore since updating to Android 11. Their voice call app also not working for Android 11 yet I think.

4a should have volte enabled by default right? There's no option to turn it off or on anywhere that I can find.

Not really. M1 does not support volte for this device so no option for me to turn on but when i insert another simcard from SH, for my sim 1(physical sim, m1 is on esim) and i go under SH options inside settings, i can turn on volte.

If carrier option supports it for tis device, the toggle switch will appear inside settings > network and internet > mobile network..

I see. Thanks a lot for your input. Guess I'll have to make do with WhatsApp calls for awhile until TPG updates their voice app or support for 4a.

No need unlock but think u need to press n hold power button

No need unless u got a few cards and not using default payment card for that payment..Then can press and hold power button as shortcut to switch over to the card you wana use to make this particular payment with.

If not just press and release or tap screen to wake it will do..
