This is Sprint we're talking about here; doesn't take much.

We are overloading the site haha.

takes a lil more to kill the NOW network lolz :o

still works for me same deal thou
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Skunk Ape1:
People stop using the dim order number. It's not the one to use. The oy is the correct #.

I checked the dim # on the 5th (just 5 hours after I ordered it) and it already said it shipped and activated. If it really had been shipped on the 5th, I would have already had it. Sprint has already said the dm# means nothing from phone conversations I had with them.

Just Flash It !!!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevesprivateaccount:
I wouldn't be surprised that they order tracking system isn't built to handle the load being placed on it. If Samsung's press releases are correct, there were 9 Million pre-ordered phones, not too shabby...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
then im back in a my phone is back ordered panic :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GamerMYJ:
Okay, I've got a number that is

DM60-blahblah

And one that is

TM-blahblah

No OY number. Is the TM the OY number?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
....The phones are not back-ordered. Read the freaking thread.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nabbed:
It says back-ordered, read the freaking sprint.com.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yahknow1:
I think it must be. my email confirmation number starts in "tm" not "oy" like everyone's talking about? The email said its my "Order Number". I haven't seen an "oy" number anywhere? I found the dm number and it leads the same place..."order shipped blah blah blah".
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
Here's another awesome idea of the day:

How about we don't copy and paste our chat experiences with CSRs, as we should all know by now that any information they give you is irrelevant.

Better yet, how about we don't bug Sprint CSRs at all with questions about when they're going to ship the phones? They have no clue what's going on and the only people who really do, we can't get in touch with by calling *2, chatting with, or emailing Sprint.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
I did, sprint.com says it is not back-ordered, but rather an erroneous message. This has been explained in previous posts. Read them. Read anything. For the love of god don't post without reading.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
im sure ive read the thread and prolly posted in this one more then you're entire post count so ..........
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Anon9mouz:
Like we dont know we just only have had every great phone plenty of preorders omg thank u

yes thank u

And u sir are the **** I'm saving this for future reference thank u too

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sickskillz14:
If you would have read through a-lot of the recent pages, you would have known that nearly everyone here has the same back-order message and that it seems to be more of an error than anything else.

Can't wait to see when people will start getting tracking numbers
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] itisagoodname:
I cant take this... ill check back when i get the phone... no more website monitoring. I've got my security cam up, it will e-mail me when someone comes to the door.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
still doesnt mean it doesnt put me in a backorder panic it could be an error the reps dont know really no one knows for sure ... its all pure speculation at this point :eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Becoming:
How about the first person to actually get the phone post a picture, instead of hammering the Sprint Site and customer service and posting useless speculation.

This thread is turning into a toilet for no real reason. Don't forget we are all excited and just chill out a little and pretend we're adults eh?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
is this your first pre order or launch? .... this is what we do we act like grown ass children ... least im not camping in front of the sprint store in a tent for this handset .. our low temp last night was 89 degrees :eek:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bizdady:
I was the exact same way when the Asus Prime came out lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gingson:
If its any consolation to you guys, I think Sprint screwed up my pre-order. I placed the order on June 5. On June 7, I was going to pay my monthly bill online but then my monthly bill showed that Sprint owed me money (credit amount). It showed that I paid my bill with a credit card. I never paid my monthly bill with a credit card and the other thing was why would I pay more than the actual bill. lol.

I believe that someone applied the pre-order amount to pay off my monthly bill instead of the pre-order.

Sprint still insists that I still have a pre-order in place. God help us all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Becoming:
I got my S2 from corporate store on launch day, which was a preorder and Evo 4G from Best Buy on launch day.

So I totally understand the excitement and I can't wait to get mine, I just hope people can be excited without being horrible for no reason over a hunk of plastic with a screen...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rgregg504:
This happened to me also and they insist it's still preordered and that the money will show up on the next bill
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lse4:
Same thing with me right now lol I pre ordered it and paid in full now my account is showing sprint owes me over $400

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gingson:
So I am not alone. I wonder if that is how Sprint does it so they can charge the credit card company right away. Hmmmn.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smark72:
Same happened to me. I am $265 in the positive on my acct
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mr.lumbergh:
I was dying after reading your comment. So true! Exactly I'll tell me wife that she is lucky I'm not out there in a tent. LOL
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] creon100:
This is how my bill page is currently showing as well. I didn't think to contact anyone about it though since my actual pre-order does show up as having been placed (though like others it currently says back-ordered).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
i did the overnight in a tent for the pre and the OG evo but I took a folding chair at 3am for the evo 3d and the epic touch .... either way its hot here doing that :mad:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mlin:
A low post count could be indicative of someone who reads a lot but doesn't post. I was this way for years- I only posted when I absolutely couldn't find something on my own.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
still a member of the site for less than a year ... a b00n in my book :rolleyes:

he wanted to try to put me on blast ...... so i zapped him
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sleestax:
I just checked, and I also have the back-order message. Assuming it will take sprint more than three days to ship the phone to me, it's not looking promising that I will get my phone "before everyone else" or whatever B.S. sprint had on that pre-order form.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] smark72:
This is normal. I just called to make sure.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
when/if it ships it will reach you overnight ..... brown has the power! ;)

Just order my 16gb sg3 from sprint. Hoping to get it the same time as the rest of you who order before me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
best LOL of the morning :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sleestax:
Any other Atlantans notice weird 3G service levels over the weekend? Was that the network vision devices being activated? All weekend long I could only get reliable data service in Wimax areas. Anytime it went to 3G, it kept turning on and off. Seems to have stopped doing that today.

I guess I should go to the Evo LTE subforum to see if their LTE activated over the weekend.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mlin:
That seems to be the norm. They'll get it straightened out in the next billing cycle.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] thelastgunslinger:
Astute observation, sir. I cannot post links yet, but google 'pcmag sprint atlanta lte test' and you will find a published article from this morning about testing over LTE that occurred last week in Atlanta.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
yes this is the norm they credit your account then when the phone is shipped/received they fix it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Magic Oreo:
my order is in backorder, is this normal or will i not receive my galaxy s 3 on time? :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jahspree:
yes i noticed that on my EVO LTE, I thought it was my phone. i was like there goes another reason to take my phone back. Also, no LTE in Atl yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
I'd call sprint :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] k87:
Are there going to be any instore demo units to play with before the release? If yes, when?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sleestax:
If you back-read the thread a bit, you'll find that everyone else shows backorder on their pre-orders as well. I'm certain someone will excitedly post here when they see the order status change and include a tracking number
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xGodlyModzz:
Don't listen to fatboypup. Sprint said this was an error. But I've heard people are now getting tracking numbers depending where you are. Mine still says back ordered too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soupskin:
I didn't pre-order because I've been on the fence between the S3 and the Evo. Now that I'm sold on the S3, I'm on waiting lists in 6 different stores to get a 32GB version.

Anyone in the Atlanta area going to the Sprint/Samsung S3 launch cocktail party tomorrow night?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Swayyy:
I don't think anyone has a tracking number, if they did... I think we would know... Post screens imo

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
for what it is worth...copy of chat from the mother ship

Mike: Thank you.

Mike: Please allow me to provide you the correct Sprint order number. it is tmcccccccblah blah blah.

Mike: We do apologize for the mesage in error. Your order is not on backorder, it iis available and is also awaiting shipment. Your order should ship out soon..Thank you for pre-ordering. You are one step closer to getting your Samsung Galaxy S III. Keep an eye out for a shipping email with your tracking information. We will do our best to get it to you before others get a glimpse on Thursday, June 21.

Mike: You can check your order status on www.Sprint.com/myorder and the tracking number will also be there when your order ships out. When your order is shipped an email will be sent to you with your tracking information. Please check back in 24 hours to see if a tracking number is available.

Mike: Is there anything else I can assist you with today?

You: no, that is cool, thanks!

Mike: Great! You're welcome xxxy, my pleasure.

EDIT (to state obvious): Items are not on backorder even though website says so, what is important here is that we are supposed to get an email when the phone is shipped with tracking info....has anyone got that yet? (REAL screenies)????
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jmstansell:
My order history is showing "Order in Progress." I think I seen a couple people posted this already, just curious how many have their order changed from "Pending" to "Order in Progress?"
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sleestax:
I read the PCmag press release, and I am blown-away that anyone would make a comment like this in this day and age.

" Sprint's peak download speeds hit 26.5Mbps down, which is as much bandwidth as anyone really needs."

At any rate, glad to see I wasn't hallucinating the weird coverage this weekend. I hope they activate LTE across Atlanta to coincide with the 21st release of the SGS3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nabbed:
That may actually happen. I preordered my EVO LTE on the 16th, and the release day was supposed to be on the 18th. A lot of people preordered several weeks before me. But the phone was delayed until 24th, and I got it on 25th along with everyone else.

So, if this puppy gets delayed, he may yet get it with everyone else.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholaaaas:
Which is ironic because Sprint is basically the ISP's ISP
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MichaeL6:
Soupskin,

Just curious why you went Evo of S3? I two was torn between them but went with the S3 since the new Evo doesn't have a replaceable battery.

Anyway, hope you enjoy your new device when you get it! :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholaaaas:
it's been said... repeatedly
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
I can haz a tracking number too? :o
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Magic Oreo:
I opened a chat with sprint and asked about the back order status, and she replied that i'd have to call sprint.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Soupskin:
That was an error. I meant to say S3... sorry.

S3 got me for the battery, SD card, RAM and Cyanogen support.

The free drinks tomorrow night at the cocktail party didn't hurt either! :p

I went back a couple of pages to see if this was already posted, if it is then my mistake.

So I canceled my sprint order. I just can't justify no 4G for months and months. Portland is in the second rollout so I'm going to stick with tmobile and hspa+. I'm going to camp out in front of the store on thursday, although their rep couldn't guarantee they'll be on sale for the launch, which is odd.

What do you guys think, it's worth the unlimited data even if you aren't in the first rollout?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholaaaas:
My screen protectors came last week. Extra batteries already came today and my cheapo case (till there's some more options) is coming today. And my UHS-1 64gb microsdxc is coming tomorrow. So... where is the thing to put all this **** in?

My preorder date was 6/15/12

Order status

Just got off of a chat window with Sprint and here is the status of my order which was placed the first day ordering was available:

I apologize for the confusion, the order will appear on back order because it has not been released yet. According to our records, your order is awaiting fulfillment in the warehouse. We’ll do our best to get it to you before others get a glimpse on Thursday, June 21. When your order is shipped an email will be sent to you with your tracking information. We are unable to speculate on a ship date.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jmstansell:
Damn Skraight, lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nabbed:
When Evo LTE was delayed, it said "awaiting processing at the warehouse". That changed to shipped, as soon it was shipped on the 24th of last month.

This one says "backordered". That's new and that's what worries me.

Dan Levine ‏@FedcourtJunkie

Koh: "I cannot be an Apple v Samsung judge.” I have tons of other cases
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pathtologos:
The tweet right b4 that one. Did I misread, or did the judge say, if u request the restraining order your other court dates will be pushed back?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] aznmode:
Maybe apple is trying to throw in other things in court? So either go forward with just restraining order or date will push back if they wanna discuss other pending lawsuit? haha I have no idea.

Does this mean though that the court is allowing the restraining order?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Swayyy:
Heh, Looks like the judge is even sick of it...

You read it right, if Apple seeks to file a temp restraining order, all other cases will be pushed back.

Judge Koh also said Apple could file for a temporary restraining order on the Galaxy S III, but said it was unclear whether the request could be scheduled and decided before the launch. Source; http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/06/07/us-apple-samsung-lawsuit-idUSBRE8561DM20120607
