[Nokia Lumia 900] :
It's locked to AT&T anyway, until the international unlocked versions start hitting. But that's no a good excuse either. Just grab a SIM cutter. It's cheap small and inexpensive. Problem solved.
[Nokia Lumia 900] nextonline:
Sim cutter? So I can use regular Sims with it?

Locked is not really a problem since you can always unlock it, either through 3rd party or call att.
[Nokia Lumia 900] TheBDub:
I use straight talk and I don't believe their microsim card is compatible with LTE, hopefully they'll be able to provide one :o
[Nokia Lumia 900] nextonline:
Someone please confirm that I'll be able to use trimmed regular sims with this phone.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kirdroid:
You can ... You just need to have an LTE data plan.
[Nokia Lumia 900] hiko36:
I am a new customer. Today I got an email saying I needed to verify my identity for my online order. So I called and went through the steps and it looks like my online order that had the device priced for free is going to go through. If I can get a manager to adjust the price in-store then I'll stick with the order I did in-store. If not then I'll just return my in-store order and stick with the online order.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Timback:
So if you have an iphone 4S, you can just pop in the microsim in the lumia 900 and it will work?

Thanks
[Nokia Lumia 900] kirdroid:
Nope you can't and that really sucks. You need to have a LTE data plan for Lumia 900 and that plan doesn't work for iPhone 4s. For iPhones you need to have a iPhone data plan. Damn it apple release that LTE phone so that one sim works for all devices. And AT&T really sucks for doing it this way.
[Nokia Lumia 900] AnyMal:
You'll have to contact AT&T and have them provision your data plan from iPhone to LTE. They may also give you a new SIM card.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
psst....most people don't have this phone. Those that do, mostly at&t reps, have the card that came with the phone. You'll probably have to wait until release to find this out....just saying..
[Nokia Lumia 900] Seed 2.0:
My phone has been shipped!!!!! I just got the email.... from my bank, lol. According to the receipt I wont be billed until it has been shipped, my bank alerted me of a charge over $100 from AT&T. There for it must have been shipped. :D:p:D
[Nokia Lumia 900] hx4700 Killer:
Does your online order status say shipped?
[Nokia Lumia 900] kirdroid:
Can't you check your online order to see if it's shipped or not instead of relying on bank charge :)

If its already shipped congrats then, my order still is at preorder.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Lmuggs:
Same here, I see the pre-auth charge from my bank but the order status on AT&T still says in progress pending shipment.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
Same here....my credit card shows an ATT charge....woohoo....

Might that mean a Thursday delivery?
[Nokia Lumia 900] Seed 2.0:
Does AT&T use Fed-Ex or UPS for shipping?
[Nokia Lumia 900] Lmuggs:
That would rock! I feel like a 5 year old waiting to open all my presents and can't sleep on Christmas Eve! Checking the latest posts and trying to determine if I'm going to get this thing before the weekend.
[Nokia Lumia 900] romeo0119:
If u have the iPhone 4s and used the sim card that came with it, you won't need a new sim, just pop it into the Nokia and call AT&T, have them switch you over to the LTE plan. That's what I did when i had my htc vivid, LTE pick up as soon as I restart the phone, no need to change sim card, sold my vivid, put the sim back into the iPhone 4s and Internet still works, I'm currently still on the LTE plan. You won't have to switch back to the iPhone plan just to get the Internet to work. Fyi
[Nokia Lumia 900] Seed 2.0:
My order still says "Pending Shipment" too. I called the store and the girl told me that I should see a status change with in ~24hrs after being charged. I'm expecting it on Friday, these signs are good IMO.
[Nokia Lumia 900] hx4700 Killer:
Does it sayit is backordered, pending shipment?
[Nokia Lumia 900] kwill:
It does say backorder pending shipment. But my Titan said the same thing and it was shipping.:D
[Nokia Lumia 900] Lmuggs:
The only thing I've seen so far that says backorder from AT&T is the automated email I got on Saturday (after going in to a store and pre-ordering 2 900's on Friday).

The actual order status page says: Nokia NOK 900 BLK, BLU PHONE, Various SIM "In Progress" and "Pending Shipment".

Actually.. I see it now. I re-read the order status page and there is a column that says "QTY Back-Ordered" and there is a 1 in each row.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kimck99:
Hi,

For what it's worth, when I pre-orded the 900 on Friday the 30th at a AT&T store, the sales rep said that it will be delivered on Wednesday (4th) so advised that someone should be home. Well, I'm working from home Wednesday so I guess I wait and see.
[Nokia Lumia 900] DanMc85:
they deliver 6th not 4th...
[Nokia Lumia 900] VizagDude:
I've Pre-Ordered this device from the store as well. I did that so that the rep will get some credit on the sale of 2 new lies. I've ordered a Black and Cyan for me and my wife. I ordered them on the 30th at around 7:00 PM. My card was charged for both the phones Immediately. I received 2 emails with order #s for both the phones stating they would be shipped in the next 3 to 5 business days.

On the 31st I received 2 other email for the same order #s saying they were back ordered. I immediately called them to check if it was true. Since it was orderd in the store, they can only see the same info as I and tell me it's back ordered.

This whole thing sux. If I'm not getting the device on the 6th, I'm going to pickup mine in the store on the 8th or the 9th with a new order and cancel these ones.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kimck99:
Yes, I did read online about deliveries being made on the 6th, however, I am merely sharing what the store sales rep told me. Either way, I will get it before the 8th - which works for me.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
at&t uses 2day delivery. You've received no notice yet. Best delivery day now is Thursday. I think the email goes out when shipping places the UPS/FedEx request. After that it's pickup time.

Most likely they start to ship tomorrow afternoon for a Friday delivery.
[Nokia Lumia 900] hx4700 Killer:
I had mine shipped to the store I ordered at as it is near where I work and someone will always be there ;) They told me to expect it on the 6th.
[Nokia Lumia 900] PaullikesWINMO:
Some may get delivery early, some on time, and some after launch. It will all depend on where it's shipping from, and what the destination is. It will also depend on which ones they ship first. You would think they would have some kind of FIFO (First Order in, First Shipment out) in place. And lastly, it will depend on just how fast AT&T can ship them. They are probably swamped with filling orders. Likley the people in logistics (shipping) are run off their feet with picking orders, loading trucks, and like any business AT&T probably didn't hire any extra staff to help ship and deal with the over load.

So for those that get their phone today or tomorrow, enjoy ! For those that receive it Saturday or Monday, enjoy ! And for those that receive it Tuesday or Wednesday, well.. you waited patiently... so enjoy !

For those of us in Canada, we will have to wait for Rogers next week or the week after to start shipping.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kirdroid:
Lol everyone will receive the phone on or before April 6th.
[Nokia Lumia 900] uptempo777:
Any early receivers yet? I know it's jumping the gun but now's about the time that some will get there.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
I think Wednesday is too soon. I think some people might see theirs tomorrow, wth the most of the balance on Friday.

Would be nice...but, we'll see.
[Nokia Lumia 900] dale_cooper:
Am I the only one that can't order the lumia as free? I'm a new customer.... Not getting the discount when I check out.
[Nokia Lumia 900] moorent:
My local ATT store says that they have all of theirs in the back room.

Too bad they won't sell me one.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
Heart Stopped!!!

Sitting at my desk at home, and I look up...a FedEx truck pulls into my drive way. I'm like HOLY SHxT!!! I jump up, put my shoes on and run on up the driveway.....

Apparently someone wants me to read about their Home Loan rate reduction enough to FedEx it to me....

Dam....
[Nokia Lumia 900] Seed 2.0:
The non corporate AT&T store just called me, they have in now in Cyan and Black and told me I could take it home today!
[Nokia Lumia 900] PaullikesWINMO:
And ? Did you take it ? :-)

Show us pics if you did ! Even better if you could post a pic of the side of the box that shows the frequency bands. Many a T-Mobile people want to know if this this is going to work flawlessly on T-Mobile (and Wind and Mobilicity for those of us in Canada).

---------- Post added at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:50 PM ----------

And were the home loan rates any good ? :D The fedex driver was probably wondering why you were out to greet them with such enthusiasm !
[Nokia Lumia 900] aimfire72:
My galaxy note and iPhone 4S pre-orders were both shipped with overnight delivery. So it could possibly be some time on Thurs afternoon before we get a tracking #
[Nokia Lumia 900] Lmuggs:
yeah... already almost 9PM EST and still no tracking number :( I'm hoping its shipped overnight and we see one tomorrow.
[Nokia Lumia 900] jz9833:
You might be in the same spot I am in.

I placed my order on 3/30 as soon as the website opened up. I was billed yesterday for the phone so I assumed I would get shipping / tracking information today however, I never got it. So I checked my bank account once again and i noticee the charge from AT&T was removed.

So i contacted AT&T, and they told me my order has been BACK ORDERED!!!!

I told them I was not happy with this as I placed my order extremely early in the process and I never received an email stating I was back ordered. Basically they said tough ****, here is this number you can call, but they are closed right now.

I am starting to rethink if I even want to go back to AT&T now.
[Nokia Lumia 900] 937dytboi:
Got my tracking number for my phone and case, both got shipped out. Phone shippped or received at 2:30pm and the case shipped or received at 2:53 pm. Coming from Forth Worth, Texas
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
woohoo!!!
[Nokia Lumia 900] 937dytboi:
Yes, I cant wait. How many days does ATT take to ship
[Nokia Lumia 900] VizagDude:
I hear you. Not to be cocky, but seeing your post makes me feel not as bad anymore. This is because, I was cursing myself for placing my order in the store just to give some credit to the sales reps and I was thinking that's was screwed up my order to be back-ordered. But seeing that you are one of the first person to place the order on the website, and in the same situation as I, does not make me feel as bad.

Please don't get me wrong, it still SUX. We were promised the phone on the 6th delivery if preordered and AT&T does not have any way to let us know the status of the order, why it was back ordered or when will the device ship, if it's back ordered. To my irony,they are not even able to locate my order if I call them. The only status I have is from the link sent to me by the back-ordered email.

AT&T should get their act together. They are known for their horrible customer service, and this clueless attitude on one of their "flagship" launches is really not helping their case. Coming from T-Mobile, this is really annoying.

I doubt, they would ship it overnight the price point of $99 or free depending how you've ordered your device.

I've a good mind of picking up devices from the store on the 8th or 9th with a new order and cancel the current pre-order.
[Nokia Lumia 900] hx4700 Killer:
Where are you located?

Im in Central Texas so it only takes 1 day from the FT. Worth wharehouse for me. The expectation is for delivery on the 6th but no guarantees.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kirdroid:
Relax man...they are going to overnight for 6th delivery, that is when the phone is promised to deliver. We can start bashing AT&T after 6th :)

Also it doesn't cost them much to do overnight, they ship hundreds of phones every day and they will have deals with FedEx\UPS to get the best rate.
[Nokia Lumia 900] 937dytboi:
im in Dayton, Ohio
[Nokia Lumia 900] Seed 2.0:
At$t refunded my money this morning, amazon is officially on backorder, ill call corporate store when they open at 10am EST. If non corporate store is same price or cheaper I'll go there. The reason I went to corporate store is I'm using a family member's upgrade since my dad used mine. I also was charged $36 for upgrade fee that I was not to be charged.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Seed 2.0:
Just got off phone with at$t via 611. She told me they are out of stock, that's why I was refunded. I canceled my order. Probably going to just wait on the white one.

AT&T Wireless - Cancellation Notification

Dear xxxxxxx

This is to notify you that your order below has been cancelled, possibly due to one of the following reasons:

. The product is no longer available
[Nokia Lumia 900] HadDaddy:
Whats worse is if you early upgrade they knock $100 off the top of the no contract price and then you are billed for a $35 upgrade fee. Now that my friends don't make any sense at all!!!
[Nokia Lumia 900] jojoblow4525:
we should hear something today u think? Fedex and ups both ship on good friday so im hoping its here by tomorrow.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Lmuggs:
That's what I'm hoping for. Was really looking forward to getting it before the weekend so I can set everything up on the phone before the start of the week.
[Nokia Lumia 900] jojoblow4525:
just got off the phone with att support and they said that since it says to be delivered on or before the 6th it should be here tomorrow.:D
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
Just checked my order status, still pending, but the Back Order was removed. The Back order status was there since I recieved the first email. Then of course many of us got the official back order email. Well, now, the back order is now removed....from mine that is.so....expect an email this after noon telling me the device shipped 2 hrs ago....

so we'll see.

Guess I'll go read all those Lumia reviews and get worried because the Titan has a better camera, and the such such android Piece of shxt has more colors, or I cant watch HD video recording of the cat chasing his tail on my phone. Oh well....
[Nokia Lumia 900] VizagDude:
I am not sure how your reps are able to give you that information. The ones I spoke to, do have any info and they are basically seeing the same info I see. That the phone is back ordered. In fact I just got off the call and the guy put me on hold to check with the sales ppl as he did not see any update on my case and shows up as back ordered. He came and said, the info I was given was wrong. The phone cannot be shipped before the launch date and since it's 8th, they can only deliver it on or after the 8th. But he does not see any future shipping date on my order status.

FYI - I've ordered my device in a local corporate store.
[Nokia Lumia 900] hx4700 Killer:
Ditto, Mine has said on back-order all week but I just checked and the backorder section is zeros now and just still says in progress and the tracking column says pending shipment as they always have.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Lmuggs:
Same with mine. QTY BACK-ORDERED column now has 0's. Getting excited!!
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
They are not giving him anything anyone else is not seeing. He is choosing to believe the help number has special insight. Everyone, well, almost everyone knows that orders placed on a pre order are NOT in the system until they actually ship or are sold in a store. Then, and only then, is the information accessable to support staff. If you called AT&T right now and pre-ordered the phone. And called back in 5 minutes to validate it, they could not give you accurate information...period.

But it is much better doing this way. Much better to get all worked up and pissed off and rant about AT&T and Nokia and Microsoft getting their act together...oh yes...much better.:o
[Nokia Lumia 900] VizagDude:
I guess they are finally processing it. Even mine changed the Back Ordered from 1 to 0. At least we might get it by Monday if not tomorrow.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
If you live in the Bronx, they are only punking you. :p
[Nokia Lumia 900] 937dytboi:
From my tracking info, they are shipping usps
[Nokia Lumia 900] hx4700 Killer:
Unless you pay for overnight then yes, its usps. My Distro point is in Dallas and I am in Central Texas so its always been overnight when I got refurb phones under warranty from them.

Shipment Dates

Apr 5, 2012

Estimated delivery

Apr 6, 2012 by 3:00 PM
[Nokia Lumia 900] Seed 2.0:
I'm not bashing Microsoft, Nokia, or even AT$T. I simply relayed the results of a 27 minute phone call with the AT$T rep via 611 from my cell phone. Due to the information she gave me, I canceled my order. The email they sent me stated a reason for the order being canceled was not being in stock. The reason I canceled was if I was going to get it on Monday then I didn't want to pay ~$143 after tax and upgrade fees for it. I can go into Best Buy and get it on Monday for $49.99+tax and no upgrade fee. Or I can wait till the 22nd and get the white, which has gloss finish and I suspect will not collect dust aka skin particles as easy. After seeing multiple units at AT$T stores I have noticed the the Cyan look really dirty, and the blacks have rubbed down into a gloss finish in spots.
[Nokia Lumia 900] pittphan:
I just checked the ATT website and my tracking info has been added!! It has a 4/5 ship fate and it is Fedex... But not in the Fedex system yet... It will be overnighted per the ATT website when I ordered on 3/30.

Relax everyone, you'll get it tomorrow.
[Nokia Lumia 900] wolfedude88:
Cant believe people are cancelling and complaining they weren't going to get it tomorrow. I didn't order mine until 3/31 and bought it off contract and I still haven't gotten an email yet.

Checked ATT site and mine has shipped and will be here tomorrow. Relax people!!!
[Nokia Lumia 900] kirdroid:
People are just paranoid .. They always ship overnight and the shipping emails will go out late in evening.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
Last time I got something from AT&T, I opened the email in the morning, telling me the item shipped, 5 minutes after the item was delivered....
[Nokia Lumia 900] PaullikesWINMO:
Well.. as I mentioned in an earlier post, it will be a mish-mash of shipping dates and times. Hang in there everyone and you'll get your units !
[Nokia Lumia 900] wolfedude88:
Agreed, I just got an email now saying it shipped, and when I checked a few hours ago online it had already shipped, emails come slow.
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
heheh....

I just checked the AT&T site. This morning it showed In Progress but no date.

Now, a Date just showed up.....Yesterday. That might mean my device is sitting on the step at home....hmmmm...or that Verizon bought T-Mobile....or that ....time to shut up.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kwill:
Mine still says pending shipment. But, the backordered piece is gone at least. OH PLEASE out tomorrow!
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:

Hi,

I've been checking all day and finally got a tracking number onsite but no email. Delivery to be tomorrow by 3 PM.

I ordered the Cyan color at a store at a local mall on 3/30 around 7:30 PM (Pacific time).

Good luck to you all.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Daemas:
Ordered my black 900 on 3/30 in corporate AT&T Store at ~3:30PM EST. No change to AT&T order status (besides removing Qty backordered) or email.

I was looking at my receipt and the last item on the list is "88868 Economy Freight 0.00". Does anybody who ordered at an AT&T Store have anything else? The CSR that took care of me didn't ask what kind of shipping I wanted. I chose to have it be shipped to the store so as to prevent it from getting nicked from my porch.

I went in to the store today to check on the off chance they just forgot to call as I was in the area and the CSR that took care of me (who was different than the first) said that they had added 100$ of free accessories to Lumia orders. He said this was a recent thing and triggers automatically now but gave me his card and told me to tell whomever when I pick it up about it. Anybody know if he's full of crap or what accessories we get?

Anybody know if the Corporate AT&T stores will be open on Easter?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: Just got tracking number from AT&T website. FEDEX Overnight Apr 6, 2012 by 3:00 PM from FT. Worth, TX
[Nokia Lumia 900] hx4700 Killer:
Mine was not premium shipping and its fedex (I stand corrected). It will be at the store tomorrow for me to pick up. Tacking assigned, status = shipped. Ordered 3/30 first thing in the morning when it opened.
[Nokia Lumia 900] Lmuggs:
Order status was just updated. Carrier is FedEx and should be here by 4:30PM tomorrow!!!
[Nokia Lumia 900] alodar1:
AT&T must have got its act together...or, we're all easily satisfied. ;)
[Nokia Lumia 900] VizagDude:
Well, got my Tracking info as well. Shipped via FexEx and scheduled to be delivered tomorrow by 3:00 PM.

To your note, AT&T did not get their act together. If they could have communicated this info when we called the reps, especially for folks like me who ordered in the store, the panic and frustration would not have been at this level.

More importantly, we are EASILY satisfied.... as long as we are getting the deice tomorrow.... :)
[Nokia Lumia 900] 937dytboi:
ATT sent me another email stating it will be here tomorrow before 3:00pm via Fedex
[Nokia Lumia 900] kwill:
Well, looks like it shows my shipping info too now:) Says delivery expected no later than 3pm today.
[Nokia Lumia 900] 937dytboi:
mines should be here within the next hour, that when Fedex usually runs around here
[Nokia Lumia 900] VizagDude:
Got my Black and Cyan delivered around 3:00 PM. I got the Cyan for myself. But once the wife saw the color, it became hers. Well what can you do, and the Black is not bad at all and may be better off for me at work.

I don't like and don't use the stock music, video and web apps on the KF. I would instead like to (let's say) replace the stock music shortcut with the android music player, the stock video shortcut with Youtube, and the web launcher with Dolphin.

Is this possible somehow? I have uninstalled the 3 mentioned apps using TB, but obviously when I go to the links in the launcher it says that the app is not found and doesn't let me choose an alternate app.

Anyway I can achieve this? I am running MoDaCo.
