"Getting things ready...."

[richbryant]

My Lumia 950 XL arrived this morning. I've put my SIM in it and switched it on, plugged into a power point.

So far it's been displaying "getting things ready..." for well over an hour.

Is this normal?

I don't think it takes an hour. Max half an hour is acceptable. I m not sure if its installing a latest updates that depends on your network speed. If it takes more than a couple of hours, I m afraid u need to restart the device.

I repopped that battery and it was fine.

The only minor disappointment is that the UK version is sadly not dual-sim.

yeah I would agree it took about 31 mins for mine to do everything.
