No tracking number yet though.
[Nexus 6  General] fleadog99:
That sounds like TMI to me. Hee hee
[Nexus 6  General] bryancotton84:
You should be able to go to fedex tracking and track by reference, ie. Google, Android
[Nexus 6  General] dsmitty166:
When did you order?

I ordered at 1037cst on the 11th. I sure hope they ship in the order they were recieved!
[Nexus 6  General] caspersfi:
Jealous but happy to see some action here. Congrats peeps.
[Nexus 6  General] bryancotton84:
Just checked my Premiere order status and its changed, now says "Expected Ship Date: Pending Confirmation" seems like a step backwards from "Preparing to Ship"

EDIT: UPDATE!!! My regular AT&T order now has "In progress" and FedEx listed as carrier!

P.S.- Ordered on the 12th around 1238am ET
[Nexus 6  General] hyper_intel:
I placed my order about 11:50p CST 11/11/14
[Nexus 6  General] fleadog99:
Just got tracking number. Woo hoo. Ordered on 11th at 11:30est pm So they have submitted the orders for shipping. So either they are going on truck tonight or in the morning.
[Nexus 6  General] Plexicle:
Still nothing here and I've ordered before everyone who's gotten something so far. :)

Just going to assume they're all going on the truck. I'll be over here spamming F5 regardless if you need me in the meantime.
[Nexus 6  General] marper123:
I ordered on the 11th at 11:51 p.m. and my page has not updated. One line says pending shipment the other says preparing to ship.
[Nexus 6  General] P1 Wookie:
Called the main corporate store in my area and they said they will have them in Friday. If mine doesn't ship by then (I just ordered yesterday so I'm not really complaining) I might swing by and see if I can grab one from them.
[Nexus 6  General] fleadog99:
Just checked FedEx. Scheduled Delivery 11/20 by 8:00 pm. Shipped at 6:41pm 11/18
[Nexus 6  General] HCdroid:
Ordered at around 11:30pm est. On 11/11. Just checked the status and shows tracking # Not trackable as of yet though
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Regardless, it's good news for the fact that something is happening, as in forward progress. 3rd and 10.

And if they're all coming from Texas, it's about 7pm there at time of this writing, so hopefully they'll be loading up orders for transit this evening and get a big batch of these out.
[Nexus 6  General] Bjray:
lol i'm only 4 hours away (Houston) from the warehouse. I remember my GS4 also coming in pretty fast.
[Nexus 6  General] bryancotton84:
Got my tracking number. Will be delivered the 20th by 430pm.
[Nexus 6  General] BTow1105:
Mine now shows that it's processing and lists USPS as the carrier, but no tracking number. Is it weird that they're using multiple carriers (i.e. FedEx, USPS, maybe UPS?)?
[Nexus 6  General] bryancotton84:
What shipping method did you get? I believe Premiere members get free 2 day shipping, not sure what regular members get...
[Nexus 6  General] TJB27:
awesome! keep checking mine as well but no update yet, ill be right at the cutoff of ones that ship tomorrow instead of today probably lol but i hope if you get it thursday you enjoy the crap out of it! i'm also worried living in upstate ny that this huge snowstorm will delay shipping through the syracuse hub. we will see!
[Nexus 6  General] BTow1105:
I didn't have any shipping choices when I pre-ordered. I'm a regular member, not premier.
[Nexus 6  General] kkl0wn:
I ordered at 2114 PST on launch date and still no update. Hoping I get something soon. Any emails yet or just status change on the website?
[Nexus 6  General] hyper_intel:
And we have lift-off, tracking number :highfive:
[Nexus 6  General] sfidelisrp:
Mine just went to Pending Confirmation instead of the dates. Should I expect a tracking number after that? Was that everyone else was seeing?

Also seems like people who actually ordered after I did already got their tracking info. Its just so random and makes no sense whatsoever.

Another question to those with tracking now. Did the tax charge hit your accounts again?
[Nexus 6  General] P1 Wookie:
At least they changed the pre-order page to say "will ship by 11/21/14" now.
[Nexus 6  General] mejori:
Tracking number!!! Success !!!

[MENTION=2229822]Neverendingxsin[/MENTION]

If your do for an upgrade at best price than you will get a better deal for sure.

Now if your starting on the next program its 10% down and will cost you close to the same full boat price in the end.
[Nexus 6  General] Neverendingxsin:
Thankfully I am do for an upgrade. When I came to at&t I bought the nexus 5 from the play store so I'm basically off contract at the moment.
[Nexus 6  General] Stigga:
:mad: Grrr, when is AT&T going to announce pre-orders? I am getting impatient.
[Nexus 6  General] Konikub:
Do you think AT&T will sell it with a locked bootloader and loaded with bloatware? .....or will it be sold through AT&T the same as it's sold through Google Play?

I find it hard to imaging that Google would let AT&T do this to a Google Edition phone, and at the same time....I wouldn't put it past the blue empire.
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
I feel like i'm sounding like a broken record, every nexus device by default ship in a locked state, so to answer the question will it be locked, the answer is YES it will ship locked...difference is since its a nexus it wasnt engineered with a permanently locked BL. there isnt any extra layer of encryption in the BL to deal with. Also as a nexus device its designed to be easily unlockable via fastboot oem unlock. Will there be bloatware possibly but no one is for certain. One thing that is certain it will ship with a locked unencrypted BL that can be unlocked via fastboot, regardless of the carrier. Not even the verizon gnex shipped with a permanently locked bl.
[Nexus 6  General] Neverendingxsin:
It should be exactly the same as the one sold on the playstore seeing as they are only going to have two versions. The USA version and EU version.

[Nexus 6  General] jonnydopemsr:
LOL. Smh. Those articles just made me laugh cause on how wrong they are. Thanks for the laugh man! Maybe next time you can give me real numbers instead of articles.
[Nexus 6  General] MkVsTheWorld:
I'd doubt that AT&T will have a variant with locked bootloaders.

First off, this would be a logistical nightmare for Motorola/Google. The phone can work on 4 different carriers, how on earth could they determine which carrier you are presently using in order to enforce that?

Say they link IMEI ranges to specific carriers and could tell if it's a "Verizon phone" and then lock down the bootloaders. Imagine people finding that there's a unlockable bootloader and call Motorola/Google to request a bootloader unlock. They then proceed to say that they can't do it due to carrier requirements. Can't you imagine the consumer backlash of Google refusing to unlock a Nexus developer phone?

However, I do find it very peculiar that the Nexus 5 lists the following as a technical specification whereas this is entirely missing on the Nexus 6 listing on the Play Store:

"Unlocked: Use with any provider that offers service on Nexus 5 supported networks"
[Nexus 6  General] eep2378:
That's the thing, the articles actually do provide REAL numbers(did you even read them?). Can you show me something that empirically argues otherwise?

On another note, just had a chat with an online rep(ATT) asking about the Nexus 6, he directed me here: http://www.att.com/cellphones/motorola/nexus-6.html#fbid=lyWUTWY9weW

Also asked him about Att preloading apps, etc. His response was you'll have to download and AT&T apps. Not sure how legit that info is, but lets hope
[Nexus 6  General] jonnydopemsr:
Yep read them all and they are all the same. Go to Verizon or T-Mobile and see what they are doing... Oh wait its exactly the same thing... You have the choice to buy your phone outright in just a payment form instead of coughing up all that money up front. There is no activation fee there is no others charges. You can pay off the phone at anytime and again no additional fees. So again how is the next program cheating you out? Do you know what RETAIL PRICE means vs a 2yr price? But honestly go into a store in fact go into a authorized retailer cause you will get better customer service then a corp store. And ask them yourself this weekend. Have them work it out with you.

Reply to your second paragraph. Yes that probably is true. I did get my Nexus S for AT&T and it had none of their apps on it when I received it.
[Nexus 6  General] LLStarks:
NEXT and EDGE are scams.

T-Mobile JUMP is not a scam. Only $10 a month and $8 of it is insurance.

You will only pay $325 for the Nexus 6 itself if you plan to upgrade it after a year.
[Nexus 6  General] _MetalHead_:
NEXT is not a scam at all, it's the best plan AT&T has ever had. First off, on a 10gb plan you get $25 off the regular price, and then you buy a phone for ZERO money down and pay off the phone monthly, you only have to pay tax at time of purchase. I'm paying $37/mo for my iPhone 6

making it only $12 more a month but again it's no money down. Since I have the 128gb, it would have cost me $400 + tax + activation fee up front on a normal plan. And the best part about it is if you pay the phone off early (which I always do), the phone is yours and you're no longer on contract and are free to do it all over again with a new phone. For a guy like me who buys a new phone every few months, the NEXT plan is a godsend.
[Nexus 6  General] jonnydopemsr:
I'm just going to say this as well. If the next program was a scam or was cheating anyone out of money there would have been a lawsuit by now. And I couldn't agree more with _MetalHead_. If anyone wants to continue this let's take it to a new thread and go from there.

But for now... LESS THEN A WEEK LEFT PEEPS!!!
[Nexus 6  General] eep2378:
Thanks. I'll have to look into it. I always a bit apprehensive regarding new policy changes from the deathstar;)
[Nexus 6  General] guitarpunk8403:
Probably referring to SIM unlock and the fact that it wasn't compatible with Verizon/US Cellular
[Nexus 6  General] marper123:
NEXT

I just want to post a reply on why NEXT plan is not a ripoff.

To connect a smartphone to your pooled data plan the cost is $40 per device if you go on contract with a subsidized device. The cost if you use the NEXT plan or bring your own device is $15. So not taking the contract phone saves you $25 per month per device. Over a 2 year period that amounts to $600 savings. The information people are stating is old information before AT&T offered you a discount to use the Next or bring your own device. Also you can upgrade every year with Next instead of being stuck with a phone 2 years.

Now can we get back on topic?

Does anyone know will we be able to preorder Nexus 6 through AT&T on the 29th?
[Nexus 6  General] eep2378:
I don't think there is any information on when one can pre order through AT&T. Hopefully more details will come in the next few days, Wednesday is coming fast.

Edit: this was their response on Twitter.
[Nexus 6  General] Stigga:
Seems to be their canned response. I am less and less optimistic that AT&T will have pre-orders on 10/29
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
I'm putting in my preorder 10/29 but if ATT stores have it in store before google ships than I might get one as an upgrade. If it can't be flashed with the factory image than I'll be returning it lol.
[Nexus 6  General] bryancotton84:
No emails just checking the website. Funny thing, I check the website on my phone and its still pending shipment, but on my laptop it's shipped.
[Nexus 6  General] LuisFlores3:
Funny. Its the other way around for me.
[Nexus 6  General] CraigP17:
No tracking yet... But I swear if they send me a flip phone...
[Nexus 6  General] phab3k:
mine changed to shipped but no tracking number

edit: just got tracking
[Nexus 6  General] P1 Wookie:
I talked to them in chat just to see if there was any chance mine was shipping today. I got the backorder story. I was mainly doing it to try and use the 'wrong date on your pre-order site and e-mail' to get some knocked off my bill, but apparently order status people don't have the power to do so. I guess I'll have to call/chat and fuss at someone else. Lol.
[Nexus 6  General] JoeJags:
Got my tracking #........USPS for me........now (more) waiting begins :)
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Item status went from "Preparing to ship" to "Processing". Looks like this is a positive change as the shipping date went from "11/18-11/19" to only 11/18, and there's a new message beneath: "Thank you for your recent purchase. We are processing your order. It will ship once processing is complete."
[Nexus 6  General] ddrwizard:
nice.. via my laptop order shows "in process" with no tracking data.. on the mobile version of att site I have my tracking number..! go go go..

also just notice that mine is shipping via USPS

I ordered on Nov 11th at 8ish pm pst
[Nexus 6  General] kkl0wn:
I just checked on my tablet and getting the same. Still preparing to ship. I'm still optimistic. Just hope it's at least by tomorrow.

Mine is supposed to be 2 day FedEx shipping.
[Nexus 6  General] indoz:
Hmmm I got the whole backorder story earlier today. Now I got a email saying that my order has been shipped! Don't trust CS guys
[Nexus 6  General] heingtaing:
Ordered 11/12/14 (10:30PM PST).

Now shows Processing from preparing.

Going out USPS... Also got the same story about back order but I guess CS was ready to get us off the chats ASAP.
[Nexus 6  General] marper123:
Just going to tell you guys what I have went through. My order page went from preparing to ship to pending shipment. It never updated to show a carrier. My premier page changed the ship by estimate to "pending confirmation". So the page has never updated all it did was change with no real update. I am signed up for FedEx delivery manager and I got a text that a tracking number was issued and my Nexus was picked up in Ft. Worth @ 7 pm. So what I'm saying is my orders page has never updated to show a tracking number but that is definitely my Nexus 6 that got shipped tonight.
[Nexus 6  General] Roundabouts:
Ordered mine 11/12 and my order just updated to shipped with a Fedex tracking number, to be here on Thursday. It's a relief knowing that my Nexus 6 is finally on its way!
[Nexus 6  General] dsmitty166:
I'm staying positive that my order will still ship tonight! Nothing yet though
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Sounds like the initial batch of orders are moving out. Can't wait.
[Nexus 6  General] h0bnail:
Mine is also scheduled to arrive on Thursday on FedEx. What are the chances they'll require a signature?
[Nexus 6  General] sfidelisrp:
HELL YES!!! I just got the FedEx text as well even though my ATT pages are saying its still pending. Thursday delivery by 8pm. FINALLY!
[Nexus 6  General] indoz:
Funny thing is I ordered mine on the morning of the release at an att store. I does seem as if they really aren't going by "first come first served"
[Nexus 6  General] moopile:
Same for me !!!!!
[Nexus 6  General] NightHawkUndead:
Got tracking update. Will be delivered the 20th. Shipping from Texas via FedEx. Ordered through premier.
[Nexus 6  General] dsmitty166:
Got my tracking. Usps. I hope it's priority mail.
[Nexus 6  General] stefan.buddle:
from what I've been told (take w

ith a grain of salt) it'll be available at the stores on the 21st
[Nexus 6  General] pcrussell50:
mine now says "shipped".

ordered about 2140 pacific time on the 11th, (which is 0040 on the 12th, eastern time).

no tracking number or email though. two hours ago, it still said preparing to ship or something like that.

-peter
[Nexus 6  General] sfidelisrp:
Official. ATT website updated with tracking. The 2 day waiting game. Rrrrr.

I'm going to do a unboxing video to unveil the branding or lack there of the logo on the back, as well as if the boot up animation has the ATT crap.
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Just got tracking via FedEx. Scheduled for Thursday by 8pm. Best of luck to everyone else who pre ordered. If not, best of luck getting one on the 21st in stores. Or even try ordering one now for shipping within the next week or so as some have mentioned.
[Nexus 6  General] TheMFTruth:
Just got my shipping notification!!!!!!
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Looks like it got really quiet ever since many have gotten their shipping notifications. I wonder why.
[Nexus 6  General] hollowlog:
Mine shipped. I ordered the moment it became available on the Premier site. It says delivery will be Thursday. Right now it looks like it's going to arrive before my 10/29 GPS (1 day shipping) order. Sad, that.
[Nexus 6  General] ald9351:
I ordered mine 11/12 at 11:00am EST. I'm a new AT&T customer and received free overnight shipping. My tracking number says it shipped from TX tonight and is scheduled for delivery 11/19 by 8PM. So excited for tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] sfidelisrp:
Damn. Free overnight. How'd you pull that one off.
[Nexus 6  General] ald9351:
I guess you get free overnight with any "new service" order.
[Nexus 6  General] SilkyJohnson:
I ordered mine the eve of the 13th/14th morning (depends where you live). My premier email says 'pending preorder' but they already took their dough (cleared my account) and the direct AT&T link says 'preparing to ship'.

Who knows. Jealous of all y'all. Lol.

EDIT: tax money transaction gone from account and money back in.
[Nexus 6  General] XtheBaker:
Same here! Kind of hard to believe they used USPS...
[Nexus 6  General] majik8ball:
it is... i pre/ordered a samsung galaxy tab s 8.4 and when they shipped it, it was via usps priority mail
[Nexus 6  General] kkl0wn:
I ordered about 30 mins after it went live (my tablet wouldn't complete the order only reason for the delay) and still not tracking or shipping info yet. Still preparing to ship.

Cmon give me some hope! If it isn't here by Friday I don't know when I'll be able to pick it up!
[Nexus 6  General] pcrussell50:
got email from premier...

fedex sez delivery by 1630 on thu., 20th.

ordered at 2140 pacific on 11th (0040 eastern on 12th)

-peter
[Nexus 6  General] kkl0wn:
Damn...mine was at 2114 I think.... discouraging!
[Nexus 6  General] eb50:
If we pre ordered online, can we cancel and get in store? How long does it take for the upgrade credit to come back?
[Nexus 6  General] scmobileman:
I cancelled my order three days ago so I could get a 64GB but for whatever reason AT&T has shipped the phone anyway and it's set to arrive tomorrow. It's going to be difficult not using the AT&T phone but I would rather wait until the other is available on the Play Store.
[Nexus 6  General] LegacyKill3r:
nexus 6

This is so frustrating I'm still getting the same back-order answer every freaking time I call... :eek:
[Nexus 6  General] bodosom:
Like the other early orders my phone has shipped. FedEx says it was picked up at 19:30 in Ft. Worth and it's currently in Memphis. However they also have a delivery delay alert for the snowy NE so I may not get the phone on Thursday.
[Nexus 6  General] 413vzwh8r:
Outoit of curiousity.. Has anyone with an 11/18-11/19 ship date heard anything yet? Im in that boatmyself and havent heard a thing yet. But at&t still has it listed as prepairing to ship. But its said that since Monday.
[Nexus 6  General] bodosom:
When I placed my order (12-Nov,00:48) the estimate was 14-18 but the FAN order status page always said 18-19.
[Nexus 6  General] caspersfi:
Yeah that's where alot of us are at. Lol, the false hope of uninformed CS agents at AT&T is what's killing me right now.

I would almost just prefer there be a "back order" somewhere on the site regarding the N6. I'm not gonna call them 12 times a day or anything. That just seems pointless, when it gets here it gets here, I would just like to have some sort of time frame on when stock will be replenished. If this device is indeed out of stock.

I'm tempted to just try and order from Moto again today. IDK.....
[Nexus 6  General] bryancotton84:
Yea that was my ship date and its been shipped and will be here tomorrow!
[Nexus 6  General] scmobileman:
Mine was a 11/18 expected ship date and it shipped yesterday, left Texas and is in Memphis now. Due to be delivered tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] chronus719:
I ordered on 11/11/14 at 10:54p MST, had the 11/18-11/19 ship date, and received a tracking number at about 7:30p MST on 11/18. Looks like they're not actually shipping until the evening, but I would hold out hope that it'll get shipped today.
[Nexus 6  General] 3's&7's:
I placed my pre-order on 11.14.14 @ 9:45 AM CST and this AM I still had the "Preparing To Ship" status @ ATT.com. So I called customer service in order to see if the stock was really available to ship; it is not.

I was able to confirm this fact, because AT&T allowed me to cancel my pre-order. The only way this is possible is if the phone is actually available in inventory and one device was reserved by my order...it was not.

My local company store says they will have devices available Friday AM for sale and may just do that instead. My local T-Mobile store claims that units should be available for sale today in both 32gb and 64gb...think I may skip financing the phone and buy the one I actually want (64gb) outright.
[Nexus 6  General] marper123:
I spoke with a CSR yesterday who told me my order page says it's sold out on back order. Needless to say I was pissed because I was one of the earliest orders with a ship date 11-14/11-18 on both pages. Then 2 hours later I got a shipping email. So don't listen to customer service they will just anger you. I suspect you folks with an 11-18/11-19 ship date will get your notices this evening. Expect them late my email with tracking showed up at 10:00 pm. Your order pages will change slightly instead of preparing to ship it will say pending shipment. It's hardly noticeable but once that happens your golden. Also your premier page will change to say pending confirmation.
[Nexus 6  General] graffixnyc:
Mine shipped last night and will be here tomorrow.. However, I noticed the authorization fell off and they haven't charged me yet for it. Anyone else who's shipped get charged yet?
[Nexus 6  General] scmobileman:
Dumb question of the day. Are you saying you're going to be buy it from T-mobile yet use it on AT&T?

While asking dumb questions. I chose to use Next to pay for mine and was wondering if the Next final price is the same price as if I paid for it (through AT&T) upfront. I was just wondering since I cancelled my order the other day and they are delivering it anyway. Maybe I could offer it to a friend or sell it locally rather than shipping it back.
[Nexus 6  General] 3's&7's:
Not a dumb question at all! Yes I would consider buying it from T-Mobile and using it on AT&T.

I too purchased on a "Next" plan from AT&T...I will update shortly, my local T-Mobile store opens in under an hour.
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Here. Ship range of 11/18-11/19 and status of "preparing to ship" since I place the order. Then last night, ship date changed to just 11/18. And status to "Processing", which is basically the real "preparing to ship" as that's when it seems like the package begins its journey.

Mine shipped last night. Scheduled for delivery tomorrow (Thursday) by 8pm. If you don't get any shipment notice tomorrow, try grabbing one in store and they'll cancel the shipment for you.
[Nexus 6  General] scmobileman:
I have a T-mobile store on every corner here but oddly enough no AT&T company stores. I just assumed if I tried to buy it at T-mobile they would require me to be one of their customers. Why they have the 64GB and AT&T doesn't is what really gets me. :mad:
[Nexus 6  General] bodosom:
Maybe. My page says shipped.
[Nexus 6  General] marper123:
Next is a 0% interest loan you pay exactly what the device retailed for and you can pay it off any time.
[Nexus 6  General] Plexicle:
Now we wait for someone to get one and confirm if it's branded or not.
[Nexus 6  General] 2phonejones:
I'll have one tomorrow morning ;) hopefully
