Google Nexus 6 Shipping updates thread

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Well I am back in the game. I went to TMobile this morning and of course they did not have any stock. But they were able to get me one and have it over-nighted to me. So I signed up with TMobile. They will pay for my ETF from ATT. The plan is better for what I use and they will soon have wifi calling so that is a big plus for me. Yes I got the 32GB and I am happy I did. I really did not need the 64GB. So I just hope it come in pristine condition without major flaws.

And I am happy to hear that it sounds like a bunch more will be getting theirs tomorrow from China. That is indeed awesome.

I ordered through T-Mobile as well. I'm just waiting for shipment confirmation.

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Oi. UPS STILL hasn't arrived for me. v_v I hate how late UPS sometimes gets around to me. 80% of the time, they're here around 2-3 in the afternoon, but I've had them show up as late as 9PM before. @_@

Was hoping to get my phone all set up so I could start using it tomorrow when I go to work, but at this point, I don't think I'll have enough time to get everything up and running. D'oh.

Re: How many got to order and which day?

MRW1215, I know how you feel, but the UPS guy came a little earlier this time for me. I got mine about a little over an hour ago. I had a scare when I unlocked my bootloader, until I figured out all I had to do was wait. The phone showed the Android with the spinning blue belly and I just waited (of course this was after panicking and going to XDA). After reading some posts on XDA, and reading people reinstalling your systems, and still having problems, one guy said he just waited and the phone eventually boots up. I guess with encryption it takes longer.

Well I'm going on and on, there are are a lot of things I want to talk about but I will just say, I'm impressed so far, and I haven't even had a chance to download the update. Tap and transfer works well. In the pics below it's still downloading all my apps. The screen is awesome

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Just arrived! Man, this thing is bigger than I expected, heh. Not bothered by it, though, just kinda jarring, compared to my S4.

I plugged it in to charge now. Not sure if I'm "supposed" to let it charge up fully before I turn it on and start using it for the first time or not.

Mine was at 74% i figured since I got the turbocharger, i would go ahead and start setting it up.

Yeah, I've just never been sure if the "Charge your device completely before turning it on for the first time!" thing is (still) true, or just some thing that someone made up about electronics.

Google has kindly informed me that my phone may not even ship till the 26th since I was in the 11/5 bunch. How awesome is that...

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Had a bit of a "scare" with cutting my Verizon SIM down to size. Bought a SIM cutter from Noosy, and it seemed to take off a little bit of the bottom part of the gold part, which worried me that it would screw the card up (which is kind of bad, because I hear Verizon won't give you a nano SIM for a Nexus 6 if you go in to the store, so I'd have to see if I could call and have them send me a nano SIM without them saying no due to my device). I popped it in to my N6, and it didn't seem to be doing anything for a while, which concerned me. Then it started doing some weird stuff with the signal icon, which also concerned me. Then LTE finally showed up, but after a minute or so, it seemed to turn off and give me a little "!" symbol, then it popped back on again.

So, hopefully all is well, because I work too much over the next few days to be without a phone for as long as it would take for Verizon to send me a new SIM.

How did they notify you? What color/size did you order?

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Email. I started a chat with them to see if there were any problems/delays with my order they followed up via email. I ordered a 32GB White model.

Same model as me. I spoke to google earlier in the week and they claimed since my order stated that it leaves the warehouse by 11/21, it should hit my door this Saturday as I paid for NDA. I'm not gonna hold my breath.

Re: How many got to order and which day?

I'm starting to wonder if T-Mobile has any in inventory in warehouse...I ordered mine at 1AM Pacific time, did NBD shipping, got shipment notification and everything...but now they are saying it was only a preorder and it's on backorder and it won't be shipping for like 2 weeks. WHAT GIVES?!?

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Finally got a tracking number! My Nexus should be here by tomorrow. Wow earlier than I expected.

Re: How many got to order and which day?

Is anyone getting a tracking number from T-Mobile with an origin scan, or possibly even have received the device?!?

I got an email with a tracking number for UPS. It will be here tomorrow. I got the 32GB version. They said that the 64GB version is back ordered. And it has an origin scan from Louisville Kentucky.

Best of luck on this one.. Hopefully SECOND time is the charm........

I just got a tracking number today. Same as Storm24......getting it tomorrow.

You and me both!!! I feel better about this because T Mobile has a much better return policy than Motorola did. So I am not worried about it. I just want the phone. Sucks getting a taste of something so good only to have it taken away.

Yea, just got mine delivered tonight around 8:15pmEST! It's the same UPS guy for years and knows me, and he's always in our neighborhood delivering between 6:30-7pm. I'm like a long lost puppy dog in my office looking out the window every 10secs...LOL...
So of course the ONE time I'm really, really expecting something, it takes longer... But alas, all is good now Ahhhh
