I got it! It’s syncing apps right now.

I got an unlocked 10+ to use with my Xfinity Mobile account. I put my sim and sd cards in the new phone before I turned it on. When I did, it gave me the message that it would reboot to connect with the sim, and it did. I am on XM. No problem so far.

I ordered 256 Aura Glow, unlocked on the 14th. Delivery Date has been moved back and forth between 04 Sep and 10 Sep. :-'(

SUCCESS!!!! We have a confirmed delivery. I sent my son to pick it up and being it inside. I gave him authority to open the "big box" but NOT the contents

Awesome!

If FedEx facility is closer, I'd personally prefer that to my local Walgreens.

SO pickup at Walgreens vs Fedex Facility?

If FedEx facility is closer, I'd personally prefer that to my local Walgreens.

Well closest Walgreens is 21 miles and closest FedEx is 28 miles

Yup. It's seems like it's a go!

I would prefer FedEx. To me, less chance of mishaps. In my old city, I'd never trust anyone in that store (in the San Francisco Bay Area...ever).

It was 3000 - I saw it.

I saw it too, that's why I liked the post, wild it changed

So when this shows up, how do I activate it? 1st time buying a phone from someone other than my carrier. It's a T-Mobile, not unlocked.

FedEx usually comes to my house around Noon (someone will be able to sign for it) and I cant get my phone until Noon anyway, I just didnt know if it would just be a better idea to just have it held at the facility

Ordered a Aura Glow 256 early morning Aug 8th, no cancel button since Friday, no movement or credit card charges either....

Have a feeling the Skittles color is going to be the slowest getting out.

I received my blue 256GB unlocked N10+ at Walgreens just now. The process was pretty smooth except for confusing and contradictory info on the FedEx site.

First, the FedEx status page said "! Delivery option(s) aren't available due to shipper restrictions. Please contact the shipper".

I ignored that and (yesterday) selected Walgreens delivery, and the website immediately confirmed that "Your package will be routed to the location below to be picked up". However, I later received an email saying only that "The request to hold your shipment at a FedEx location has been received". The status page, meanwhile, changed from "expected delivery" today to "requested delivery" today. It continued to show my home address as the destination, mentioning only that "Delivery option requested: Hold at FedEx OnSite". But the top of the page said "! Package is not yet available for pickup", suggesting that the delivery location had successfully changed.

This morning at 7am, the package was "[nearby city name], at local FedEx facility"; and at 9:15, was "on FedEx vehicle for delivery", still "requested delivery" date today and "not yet available for pickup".

Then, at 10:30, it reverted to "[nearby city name], at local FedEx facility", and the "requested delivery" changed from today to "Pending". But it also said "Tendered at FedEx OnSite". So I walked over to Walgreens, and the package was waiting for me there. (It was sitting unattended on a counter in easy reach of all customers, but at least it's not my responsibility if someone takes it before I sign for it.)

TL;DR: FedEx Walgreens pickup works well, but you have to ignore a lot of disinformation on the FedEx status page.

Easy Way... just put the SIM card from your current phone in it.

Just as I had feared, I finally saw some movement this morning. 8/23 has now reverted back to Sept 4 :-X

Typically (from ordering Verizon ones from Best Buy) the SIM is already setup for your number and you just have to follow the on screen directions to activate. But like I said, this was for Verizon phones

If you don't have time , send it to me I'll send it back for you

Got my email already about the trade in return. Man they're fast.

I have until September 5th.....anyone know if that means to FedEx or to the return center

Of course, every school bus is going to pass by the house, sounding like the FedEx truck.
