So did I actually, one of my infamous S-line TPU kickstand cases, a Skinomi clear screen protector, and a GhostArmor matte....seems they're the only ones with a wet-application matte protector yet. And they make you make the wet part yourself (I'll just use leftover Skinomi fluid instead).

Basically I have everything but the phone now. :D
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
LG G3 will ship next Monday or Tuesday for pre orders - once I see it ship I will order a case from Amazon, just in case I decide to cancel the pre order.

I know this was discussed earlier, but, can everyone give me your recommendations on a case?

Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G3] InsaneJester17:
Take it for what's it worth... but T-mobile just told me my G3 will arrive by 7/10 (Next Day Shipping).

http://imgur.com/hHT6RT1
[T-Mobile LG G3] npaladin2000:
I've used these for my past 4-5 phones, they've never disappointed me. Very slim, just enough corner protection, and the kickstand is really handy. Cheap too.

I was told the 11th, then they said it was backordered, now, I just got SMS from them thanking me for the upgrade - LMAO
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
That would be great if they shipped in time to be delivered this week. My expected delivery date was 7/1 though, so I'm not expecting anything before the 16th. That way, if it comes in before then, it's a pleasant surprise. :D
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
ok, I like that - but, I was thinking of buying a flip case, for the first time ever....
[T-Mobile LG G3] jimmydee62:
That is amazing since I ordered mine on 6/30/2014 and it still says processing on T-Mobile site. No messages from T-Mobile yet which they said they would debit my bank account once item was shipped nothing yet. So I would assume that the person doesn't have a clue about his phone.
[T-Mobile LG G3] KiNG OMaR:
So on the T-Mobile website, under alerts it says I have an order in progress. But when I try to click on it to check the order status it says "One or more of your entries was invalid. Please check your entries and try again."

Anyone else? been like this since I preordered it on day one.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
Yep, tons of us are in the same boat. It won't change until they get stock to ship.
[T-Mobile LG G3] KiNG OMaR:
Honestly, I'm seriously considering canceling the pre-order and just picking up the phone in store. Backorderd + waiting for it to come isn't sounding very appealing anymore.

But I hear TMO gives you a hard time canceling pre-orders :\
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
It is their one real weakness CS wise. You have to refuse delivery of the phone. They "can't" cancel one you place an order.
[T-Mobile LG G3] galt:
I called and canceled my pre-order with no problem. Got an email confirming it a few days later. I then re-pre-ordered (it was the only way to change the shipping method).
[T-Mobile LG G3] Pheno.menon:
False. You can change/upgrade the shipping method with UPS My Choice once your card is charged. You have about a day to do this once the charge hits.
[T-Mobile LG G3] CheesyNutz:
I'm going to pick one up for me and my wife. She will be super happy with it I'm sure I will like it as well. Just hope there is some development for or else in 6 months I'll be jumping for sure

Some Place in rhe milkyway
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
Do you think it is worth the extra money for supposedly faster shipping? I guess I will find out as I chose option 2...
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
As someone who got next day shipping, I wouldn't say its worth the extra cost. You might get the phone 2 or 3 days earlier max, but in the end it doesn't really make that much of a difference.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Pheno.menon:
I'm not sure, as another user said, they got overnight shipping even with the standard shipping option. But I'm going to upgrade it just to be safe since I accidentally picked the slow shipping at checkout.
[T-Mobile LG G3] jimmydee62:
I have gotten the 2 to 4 day shipping more then once and it usually gets to me no later then 2 days so we'll see.
[T-Mobile LG G3] luigi311:
Same thing with me but with Amazon I usually choose the free shipping it doesn't take long (college student) lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] autoprime:
TMO G3 users who won the contest and have the phone already... your phone came with software v9...

someone needs to dump the partitions from this before taking the OTA. has anyone done this? is anyone still on v9?

to dump partitions root will be needed. any questions on how to dump, feel free to ask and i can walk u thru it in IRC or something.

to those that read this but do not have a tmo g3 with v9... spread the word.. or keep an eye out for the winners who may have one of these devices.

also i need ANY tmo g3 user(v9.. v10.. whatever) to PM me on here or hit me up on irc.
[T-Mobile LG G3] IXChicharitoXI:
Does anyone know when T-Mobile retailers will have the G3 on display? I want to compare with the S5 and make my decision on what to get.
[T-Mobile LG G3] 20degrees:
S5 is junk. Get the G3. ?
[T-Mobile LG G3] jimmydee62:
The LG G3 is slated to be on shelf on the 7/16.
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
Pre orders end on July 15 and that is when it is supposed to be shipped...
[T-Mobile LG G3] IXChicharitoXI:
Yeah... I was hoping it would be on display a day or two earlier.
[T-Mobile LG G3] npaladin2000:
Mostly we were hoping to get ours before AT&T got theirs. :(
[T-Mobile LG G3] InsaneJester17:
Totally. AT&T did their preorder the right way. T-mobile's feels like it's leaving us hanging, especially with reps giving misinformation, and their own system telling us so many different things. I gotta say, times like this, and any time I leave the city, make me miss AT&T.

SHIPPING STARTS TODAY. I'll BITE MY TONGUE NOW.

https://twitter.com/askdes/status/486896872099807232
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
Interesting. How reliable is that source? I don't use Twitter. Don't know who he is.
[T-Mobile LG G3] InsaneJester17:
He's basically T-Mobile's tech desk. Very reliable.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
Hoping they do start shipping today. I ordered 6/30, still have no email indication of shipping, no hold on my credit card, and I'm still not able to pull up the order status on TMO's website. We'll see.

But I will say that Des is indeed a reliable source.

Edit: Just had a chat with a CS rep who said pre-orders won't ship until the 16th. Take that as you may.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
Same here. No email and no hold/charge on my card yet.
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
Shipping starts today? Cool, because I read it was starting on the day before it was released...

[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
Oh, you found that? So it wasn't already discovered and posted by InsaneJester17 in post 410, huh? :rolleyes:
[T-Mobile LG G3] npaladin2000:
Yes, no, yes, no, this is almost as bad as trying to buy a OnePlus One. :)
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
I honestly overlooked that post...lmao
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
:laugh: Seriously! Hopefully it doesn't turn out to be as much of a disappointment when it arrives. My OnePlus one came in yesterday and after playing with it in person I was very happy I sold it to my coworker and opted for the G3 instead.
[T-Mobile LG G3] wase4711:
Not really, since all the usa carriers gave actual dates they are releasing it; the problem here on XDA is no one has any patience what so ever to wait for the date they were told it would ship..
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
I would just like to see video reviews of the American carrier versions of the G3. All the videos online are of the Korean model (might even be pre-production), so I'm wondering how the American versions compare.
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
I have an alert on my online account telling me that the order is being processed and when I go to look at its status it tells me that one or pieces of the info entered is incorrect - good ole T MO...lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] Lostatsea23:
What was disappointing about the one plus one?

Tmobile Just Charged My card!

IM happy to say Im one step closer to being happier.. They just Charged my bank..Hope it ships today! :laugh:
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
Good review. +1

I am also on that forum and I am member 16358 with the same user name as hear, as well as just about on every other internet site, lol.

Anyways, I got tired of the invite games, contests, and then I am seeing how poor the customer service by OnePlus is. At least with T Mobile, I can call them and go to the store, and their customer service is not the best, but it is decent.

I do like the looks of the OPO phone and for the price, it is a very impressive phone - although, I never actually held one before :cyclops:

I am cool with the G3 - I pay less out of pocket, initially, and I am looking forward to XDA support on this device....

---------- Post added at 11:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 AM ----------

HEY!! I see a charge pending, too...
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
Oh heck yeah my card just got charged as well! Here they come!
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
Can confirm I have a pending charge on my credit card as well! This is exciting.
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
ok, now who is our XDA developer for this fine device?
[T-Mobile LG G3] zainqaiser:
My card got charged too.. hope i get it this week..
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
Awsome. Same here!

........
[T-Mobile LG G3] aaronc_98:
Anybody got a shipped notice?? Not me and I ordered in hour 1...
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
No ship notice yet, but the hold on credit cards/bank accounts in the first step, so it should be coming soon.
[T-Mobile LG G3] witeboy07:
did you order in the start of the pre order time? I ordered mine on july 1st early in the AM,
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
No, just a pending charge - I bet in up to a day or so we all get order sent confirmations....
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
I imagine that since they are hitting our cards with pre-auth charges (to ensure we have the funds available) that the phones will be shipped out tomorrow or Friday. At which point we will get notices.

However, if it's anything like Google with the Nexus 4 and Nexus 5, the phones arrived within the following two days of the pre-auth charges hitting our cards. This means we COOOOULD see our phones by Saturday. But don't get your hopes up too high.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aaronc_98:
I hope y'all are right... I am ready....
[T-Mobile LG G3] jimmydee62:
I also got charged by T-Mobile POS DEBIT T-MOBILE.COM*ORDER 800-672-5390 WA Link to more information in a new browser window. $658.20 . When I ordered it on 6/30/14 was told that my debit card would not be charged until ready to ship so that means it will be sent soon.
[T-Mobile LG G3] InsaneJester17:
When did you guys pre order? I didn't get to until Wednesday, 7/2. Hoping mine gets shipped today.
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
I ordered mine on July 5th...
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
I ordered mine on 6/30, as soon as I saw the post on XDA about pre-orders being available.

I hope they ship tomorrow so that my next day delivery comes in on Friday, otherwise it'll be a waste to have paid for next day delivery and to have to wait over the weekend for it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] npaladin2000:
So did I, and I haven't seen a charge yet. Maybe it'll show up tomorrow, this CC company is a little slow posting transactions sometimes.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
They hit my debit card today as well. I chose free shipping, I was okay with waiting until the 15th for it to ship out, though. Nice bonus that it will be here early, :highfive:
[T-Mobile LG G3] aaronc_98:
I hit on 6/30 so hoping for good news shortly....
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
I ordered this case for it and it may get here before my phone does - it is nothing fancy, but, I need to save some money for a bus ride to NY, as I may be moving over there with a friend next month:

[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
Yeah, I used to use a credit card from a credit union, and it would always show credit card charges a day late or so. It'll come up for you soon too!
[T-Mobile LG G3] spridell:
Des is a very very reliable source and his words should really be taken as gospel.

The fact that our cards have been charged, those of us who did overnight shipping should have the phone in hand by Friday.

In my past experience with T-mobile they ship the phone out within 24 hours of the charge to your card.
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
I have that now...lol
[T-Mobile LG G3] Dog_Daze:

I ordered yesterday 7/8/2014, with one day shipping and being a new TMobile Customer.

I got my phone today around lunch time. I was baffled. No idea how I got it ahead of time.

Edit:

It shipped from Fort Worth Texas, I am located in Columbus Ohio.

Edit2:

According to UPS it shipped 7/8/2014
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
You received your phone today? Could you show us a picture?

Another Tweet from DES saying shipping starting today from the distribution center.

I think we can NOW confirm shipping has started as of today:

[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
Thanks, I'm sure you can imagine our skepticism. Congrats! Let us know how you like it ::D
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
Perhaps they started shipping yesterday or the day before to cut down on people calling customer service complaining about not having it yet even though they got charged.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Dan37tz:
Niiicee! I'm jelly.

I remember when I preordered my G2 last year it arrived to me a full 2 weeks+ before release date and about a week before everyone else on XDA. I felt special hehe. :laugh:

I also got charged today, chose overnight shipping as well. I won't make the same mistake of choosing standard free shipping again, had to wait 8 days AFTER release date to get my Note 3 and they wouldn't let you cancel either after you pre-order.

Gonna replace my HTC One M8 that I've been daily driving for the past couple months, it's a nice phone with great loud speakers but a big flaw, I found myself using the camera a lot more than listening to music. In that respect, the M8's camera really is mediocre in day to day use. I probably wouldn't switch if it had a camera that was at least on par with a 5S or S5.

The G2 was one of my favorite phones, you guys know what's funny, after having my HTC One M8 for a few months now, I still sometimes reach for the power and volume button on the back. LOL, damn muscle memory just won't let go of the G2.
[T-Mobile LG G3] KiNG OMaR:
My card has been charged too. Anyone get tracking info yet? since they apparently started shipping last night
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
To anyone who was previously getting the below error message when trying to view their order status, are you now able to view it successfully within your account?

I'm still getting that error.
[T-Mobile LG G3] witeboy07:
Same error still.
[T-Mobile LG G3] djy206:
My card was charged

My card was charged today, still can't see order status. Progress though!
[T-Mobile LG G3] spridell:
On another forum someone else also got theirs today from UPS.

Looks like they definitely started shipping last night and today.
[T-Mobile LG G3] zainqaiser:
The question is that the ones who got the phones already, were they notified about their tracking info before it got delivered?
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
Same exact thing I'm wondering. Hopefully it means they've shipped the earlier pre-orders as well.
[T-Mobile LG G3] networkdood:
Wow, that was super fast - but, that is probably because you are a new customer...lol

[T-Mobile LG G3] Amac1222:
I just put in my order this morning. I was just going to pick it up on the 16th in store but got antsy. Picked the 3 day shipping. My card was just charged a bit ago. Can't be happier! Hopefully I get it by this weekend!
[T-Mobile LG G3] JesseMT4G:
This is why I just wait till they get to the store. It's not Apple, so guarantee it would be in Stock. I even call before I make the drive, just in case.

Feel for you guys though as it sucks waiting on things, especially tech stuff. Also that AT&T did their's right.
[T-Mobile LG G3] jimmydee62:
Well I got the galaxy 5 T-Mobile when it first came out and I called the two stores in my area. One didn't have any left and the other had one so I asked for them to hold it and they said they couldn't so I ran up there and someone was buying it. That was on the first day. I had to wait a week before I finely got one so this time I decided to pre-order so this wouldn't happen again. My check account has been charged but site still says in progress. Hope this changes soon.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
The Galaxy S line up is a lot more popular than any other Android line up, even compared to the Note series...I wouldn't expect too many people are going to go to stores the day the LG G3 is released.
[T-Mobile LG G3] InsaneJester17:
Just got a tracking number from My UPS. Mine will be here tomorrow (Ordered next day shipping)! Still can't view my order on my tmobile.
[T-Mobile LG G3] witeboy07:
Awesome. Hope I get also.

---------- Post added at 11:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 PM ----------

Just got tracking. Here tomorrow also.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
Are y'all getting emails from My UPS?
[T-Mobile LG G3] witeboy07:
My wife got a text. Like @ 5:12. Cst
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
Someone in another thread just brought up a great point. If we are seeing charges on our cards today, that typically means that the orders were processed and possibly shipped yesterday. It normally takes about 24 hours for a charge to show up within your online banking portal. It's not normally instantaneous.

Between that and reports flowing in of some getting their phones delivered today and others getting tracking info indicating their phone will arrive tomorrow, it makes sense that the phones were processed/shipped for many people yesterday. I think it's a safe bet that many of us will see our phones by Friday at this rate. If so it will be a very pleasant surprise!
[T-Mobile LG G3] Mele:
According to T-mobile Corporate, this is all Bull.... , nobody has got Jack....

T-mobile Corporate, just got off the phone with Executive Customer Relations and they say: Nothing has shipped or will ship yet, no order confirmations of shipping or order status changed other than order placed, no card charged, no tracking and absolutely no one has this phone in there hands yet, especially if they say they ordered it on July 8 and it shipped to them today July 9, you could have next day, next hour or whatever shipping, it ain't happening.

I pre-ordered on June 30 within an hour of the pre-order going live. There is no card charged yet, order status is order placed.
[T-Mobile LG G3] witeboy07:
Someone is mad. You'll get your info. Patience.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
Well of course corporate is going to say that. But we know that's not the case. We have proof of people receiving their phones, and many people's card/account being charged. I wouldn't expect corporate to say anything different than what you posted.

Got my ups tracking just now also.

Phone will be here tomorrow. Overnight shipping.
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
I just signed up for UPS Mychoice to see if I could somehow find my phone in transit. Sure enough, it worked...

I saw the charge on my card today and the phone is scheduled to be delivered on Monday. Makes sense considering I went with standard shipping. All those who chose 2 day shipping will likely see their phones before Friday.
[T-Mobile LG G3] jimmydee62:
I'm not saying that anyone has gotten there's yet but if you look at one of my earlier posts I did a cut and paste from my online checking account that shows I have been charged so someone is really talking some BSI also ordered my on 6/30.
[T-Mobile LG G3] witeboy07:
I actually chose standard shipping. But I always get it within a day.
[T-Mobile LG G3] zainqaiser:
I just checked via ups my choice...i will get my fon on friday...choosed standard shipping...no text yet from tmobile
[T-Mobile LG G3] sn0warmy:
When I check my tracking number it says "A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status will be updated."

When this happened with the Nexus 5 I had that message and an estimated arrival date of 5 days later. Then the following day I woke up to a surprise that the tracking got updated to "On vehicle for delivery." I received it at noon that day, which was 4 days earlier than the expected delivery date. It was discovered that they ended up overnighting all orders, even those who paid for standard. Plus the Nexus 5 also came from Louisville, KY like the G3 is....

... A man can hope.
[T-Mobile LG G3] InsaneJester17:
Good luck!
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
Never believe corporate. I still have no order updates from T-Mobile or shipping emails.
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
I still have no tracking info or anything in MyUPS... :(
[T-Mobile LG G3] Slash8915:
I for one HOPE you guys get your phones tomorrow. That way you can try them out for a few days and tell us the pros and cons before I buy mine on the 16th.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Semantics:
I chose the cheapest shipping option, I ordered 7/1, should get it on Friday and will be happy to report my findings.
[T-Mobile LG G3] KiNG OMaR:
Standard shipping. No tracking info from T-Mobile. No text from T-Mobile. Order is still invalid on the website. BUT LOOK!
[T-Mobile LG G3] aka757:
Looks like being impatient by choosing next day shipping was my downfall! Impatiently waiting for an update from T-Mobile or UPS.
[T-Mobile LG G3] jimmydee62:
I got my e-mail from T-Mobile with tracking number but if you look at there site it shows order in process so who ever is doing system updates is way behind shipping amazing isn't it?
[T-Mobile LG G3] galt:
Not sure if you were the first to post it, but thanks for the tip on signing up @ UPS for a UPS My Choice account. Just did it, and I see on the delivery schedule that I should plan to take a personal day tomorrow... :) Still haven't heard anything from T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Pheno.menon:
My card was charged today as well. Standard shipping so hoping it gets here by Friday!
[T-Mobile LG G3] KiNG OMaR:
UPS generally won't leave it for someone to take unless the driver feels it is safe enough. Generally at the drivers discretion whether or not the package will be left at the door. That's what I've experienced at least... I get amazon delivers 1-3 times a week lol
