S7 Edge - Verizon preorders

[doxidad]

How long did it take other people here to get their tracking number to work? My phone shipped out and when I try to look at the tracking number it says "UPS could not locate the shipment details for your request. Please verify your information and try again later. "

I got a tracking number late afternoon last Sunday and it didn't show up active until Monday after 3PM. The tracking number is generated by Verizon and until it is scanned by UPS it's not in their system.

My phone made it to MN yesterday from Memphis and it hasn't moved from the FedEx sorting facility in the last 20 hours and it's really pissing me off.

What got updated?

All my apps, contacts, normal new phone things. It was super laggy for a while but I'd say there's no issue now

Mine made it to Tallahassee 14 hours ago with no update... I Completely Understand.

Mine went from Memphis to Nashville at 5am, and hasn't moved since. Hoping for departure from Nashville this afternoon/early evening. Mine is UPS though.

Not even the Hubby's phone?

Does anyone else here feel that there is some horrible lag going on with the S7 Edge as opposed to the S6 Edge+? The S6 Edge+ is smooth as butter but with the S7 Edge I can feel the stutter and esp with swiping away "recent tasks" cards. It would register my swipe away as "choosing" the tab to be my active window. Chrome is pretty laggy as well. Never felt that with the S6 Edge+. I'm thinking it's all the fault of the microSD even though I have the SanDisk 200GB one and not the "problematic" ones.

Helps if you wipe the cache after a huge installation or initial setup. Did you disable the bloatware as well?

No, I haven't received my phone...

OK so here's My first official reply from my new phone! I generally love it. Still figuring a LOT out. But the screen on it is beautiful! I will sort it all out. Eventually lol.

Thanks I had to update my verizon app and it shows shipped , and now the link to the Web shows it shipped yesterday too...weird. Tracking number isn't found in the system tho but I think fedex is having problems. It's crazy how buggy all the systems are. ..thanks again for your input

The package was labeled and loaded on to a truck or something but FedEx hasn't received or scanned it yet. Most likely it will show up in a few hours when FedEx actually scans the package.

I haven't cleared the cache yet but I already disabled the bloatware.

This probably isn't the thread for a question like this - might be better to ask in the first impressions thread that has been started. This thread has been derailed enough times as it is...lol.

HEY, I resemble that remark!!!! LMFAO!!!!

 

[JHStewart1023]

This phone is really light weight and feels super fragile.. but the screen is amazing

UPS usually updates later around 5ish EST FedEx within a few hours.

I did fed ex chat, and my phone had moved several times. The website is not updating. I received my phone a couple of hours ago and the FedEx site still says it left Memphis yesterday afternoon.

Did you get it shipped 2 day (ground)? Most likely you will not see anything until it hits the next stop. IIRC they scan it once in Memphis and it goes on a truck and doesn't get scanned again until the next stop. Unles it is going on joy rides like some people that said it scanned in like 3 time in Memphis...LOL

I just picked up 3 cases! You have to spam the code a couple of times to get it to work but they all went through. Picked up a Tough Armor, Rugged Armor, and a Neo Hybrid Crystal for my S7 Edge. All $5 a pop. Thanks AC!
