That's what I thought. I've been so busy I haven't been able to keep up and appreciate the response. Of course as a grown man with a few small businesses I'm not too busy to watch sites all day every day in order to buy a phone. Lol

Face it, we're an odd bunch. :D
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Just checked status on mine and it arrived at the local FedEx facility just after 8am. Here's hoping it gets delivered today instead of tomorrow.

EDIT: I wasn't paying attention because of excitement, but it arrived at local FedEx in memphis TN, not my town in PA. Looks like I'll get mine tomorrow as scheduled.
[Nexus 6  General] land2634:
My authorization fell off as well, order shipped, and they haven't charged. I don't know when it'll arrive as they used USPS. USPS both sucks in my area, and also has the worst "tracking" system known to man.
[Nexus 6  General] alhadee12:
Mine is still saying processing. I'll check it again later to see if it changes.
[Nexus 6  General] scmobileman:
Just received a text saying my order shipped, which I knew since it's already arrived at the Memphis center per FedEx. Since I'm holding out for the 64GB I'm trying to decide if I should refuse delivery or keep it and decide what to do after that.

---------- Post added at 11:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 AM ----------

My authorization disappeared as well but it's set for delivery tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] kkl0wn:
Anybody have their phones ship today? Or is it going to be another round of shipping tonight?
[Nexus 6  General] MadHatter01:
Mine did not ship. I ordered within 10 mins of the page going live. Spent all morning on the phone with At&t. Ready to leave them at this point and get one from T-mobile.
[Nexus 6  General] moopile:
Mine is in Memphis. I live 18 miles from where it's at. Won't get it until tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] Plexicle:
Yep, mine will be here tomorrow as well. I know a couple people got overnight shipping for signing up for new service. So I'm hoping we get one person on XDA/Reddit today that receives the phone from AT&T and can let us know. :cowboy:

---------- Post added at 11:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 AM ----------

ald9351 - ping ping.

You are the only one I've seen on XDA or Reddit that has overnight shipping and also had the phone ship yesterday. You are our only hope.

Can you please let us know if it's branded as soon as you get your mitts on your phone? :angel:
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
The branding would suck for sure but I can live with it. The death star logo is a lot easier to stomach than Verizon's giant checkmark and text.
[Nexus 6  General] bodosom:
I also got a text message from AT&T. Yesterday I got a update e-mail regarding the "update" and my new customer service summary lists a Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6  General] jm700wx:
So I got my white whale from Moto this morning. I put my sim card in and get it all set up and low and behold....AT&T bloat crap appears on my phone. Good news is it uninstalls without the need for root. Just giving everyone a heads up.
[Nexus 6  General] ald9351:
I will report back tonight after I get home from work around 7:30 tonight. I had no idea that so few ppl would get them today.
[Nexus 6  General] Plexicle:
You're the man/woman!
[Nexus 6  General] sfidelisrp:
I'll be doing a video unboxing as soon as I receive mine.
[Nexus 6  General] r34p3rex:
Anyone know when the N6 will be available in stores? I'd like to hold one in person before I ditch my S5
[Nexus 6  General] caspersfi:
One person said earlier he/she heard Fri a.m. I just called and my nearest company AT&T store told me they will be getting them in but didn't know when.
[Nexus 6  General] scmobileman:
One of the many posts here mentioned that if you boot the phone once without a SIM and then boot it a second time with the SIM it won't ask you to download the bloatware. No idea if that's true or not.
[Nexus 6  General] P1 Wookie:
If you go through the setup process without a sim it won't download the bloat.
[Nexus 6  General] Plexicle:
For those wondering about bloat, see here:

You are soo lucky. Mine was shipped by USPS. We all know how that's gonna turn out. No tracking info until now.
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Hours before the preorder on 11/11, I chatted with precaution with an AT&T rep regarding when pre-orders would be live.

She told me midnight, which was correct. She also added that stores would get them the 21st (this Friday). Keep in mind this was over a week ago for a device with dodgy availability info up to this point.

I called a fairly new store yesterday and he also said this Friday, the 21st is the AT&T national launch day for the nexus 6. Availability will be what matters most at this point.

So to my surprise, the AT&T rep was pretty much correct. Hope this helps.
[Nexus 6  General] land2634:
I never imagined they'd use USPS. Now that I have a useless USPS tracking number, I know better.
[Nexus 6  General] toyfreak:
Wow, that's weird... I'm in the same boat (blue 64 from Moto) and my Deathstar SIM didn't add any bloat. This particular SIM card came out of my Nexus 5 and was in an iPhone 5 for a month (that was a LOOOOONG month!) before my N6 came.

EDIT: I booted and did the setup over wifi without the SIM card installed.
[Nexus 6  General] HCdroid:
Mine is coming today also. Will update as soon as I get it. I'm at work so it won't be till later this evening.
[Nexus 6  General] earsmccoy:
Status Changed.

I was one of the shipping "11/18-11/19" and now my ship date just changed to 11/19 and shipment status changed to "in progress".
[Nexus 6  General] kkl0wn:
Good to hear there is still movement. I was also 18-19 group with no update.
[Nexus 6  General] jettisoned:
My order just changed from "11/18-11/19" to "processing" and there's a UPS tracking number in the tracking field. So they're obviously fulfilling more orders today.
[Nexus 6  General] pcrussell50:
mine "shipped" yesterday. it got to the fedex facility in fort worth at midnight last night... and hasn't moved since then according to the tracker. still sez delivery by late afternoon tomorrow... west coast... away from the snow warning.

-peter
[Nexus 6  General] earsmccoy:
Right on! I was in the "11/18-11/19" group and my N6 now shows "shipped" via FED-EX with a Friday eta!
[Nexus 6  General] Rentaracer:
Mine was just updated in this last hour as shipped. Part of the 11\18-11\19 group (ordered 11\14). Being shipped via FedEX and was picked up 40 minutes ago in Fort Worth. No estimated delivery, flipping excited though!

Edit: Friday by 4:30 is the eta. But should be sooner because I had it sent to my work
[Nexus 6  General] thejron:
I'm in the 18th-19th group and I'm still waiting for it to ship. This is the most painful launch since my Nexus One.
[Nexus 6  General] TJB27:
Mine also has changed to SHIPPED! through fed ex! estimated delivery tomorrow by 4:30! so excited!! just a little worried about them shipping through the upstate ny hubs like they usual do...lots of snow up there! But regardless i'm so happy lol!!!! this phone better not let me down!:highfive::victory::fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 6  General] super80e:
Ordered on the 12th, have the "preparing to ship" since that day with the 11/18-11/19 time frame. No update, no change, no nothing.
[Nexus 6  General] TJB27:
i ordered mine on the 12th as well, so i'm sure yours will ship today too! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

[Nexus 6  General] clothednblack:
Mine also just changed from 11/18 11/19 to processing fedex. I ordered mine late 11/15.

Edit: tracking number is now there, priority overnight shipping, be here tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] caspersfi:
WHOOP!!

Just checked mine(second time in the past hour) and I have a tracking number!!! Estimated delivery Fri by 4:30 thru Fedex. I placed my order on the 13th.
[Nexus 6  General] ervin10:
Mine just updated to processing Fedex and I purchased it on 11/14. :D
[Nexus 6  General] super80e:
Sigh i ordered on 12th and i haven't been updated, what is going on?
[Nexus 6  General] sfidelisrp:
I so hope this is BS. I wanted to run it sans case, but now I may be forced to use one. I hate carrier logos. I've been spoiled by my N5 and OPO.
[Nexus 6  General] apascual89:
I'm in the 18-19 group and just got the FedEx delivery manager that it's being delivered on Friday!
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
AT&T started their delivery process yesterday. You'll probably get yours into transit soon. I was in the 18-19 group, and it changed to just 11/18 last night with updates and finally a shipping update.

If not shipping by tomorrow, head into a store and hopefully get on there and then have the rep cancel your pending order.
[Nexus 6  General] marper123:
It will. They ship pretty late and when I got my notice it was already picked up by FedEx 3 hours before I knew anything.
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
its pretty much been confirmed the ATT version would be branded...if u looked at the images on the business website.
[Nexus 6  General] sfidelisrp:
Whose to say that wasn't the web developers mistake and he just photoshoped a logo on a pic just from habit. Not saying its not the case but I'm stubborn and am holding out till I see an actual pic of it in hand to concede. :eek:
[Nexus 6  General] ncraigtrn:
Woohoo. Got my shipping notice overnight via fed ex. Delivery by 3pm tomorrow. West coast.
[Nexus 6  General] FMMFL:
Same tracking status here. I also have an order in with Moto that has done the same but originally had a 11/19 delivery date.

Kinda seems like someone put a pause on things.
[Nexus 6  General] mjj7801:
Ordered on the 17th. Received a FedEx tracking number today. Sweet. Delivery on the 21st.
[Nexus 6  General] CraigP17:
Ordered 11/14 around 5pm EST.

Just got UPS tracking number. Premier was supposed to be FedEx 2nd Day, but it was shipped UPS 2nd day Air instead. Should have by Friday. (Eastern PA)
[Nexus 6  General] tmacli:
I ordered in the evening on the 12th EST and today it shipped and Fedex says should arrive by the 20th at 8:00PM.
[Nexus 6  General] Gardrek:
We're going to have them in store on Friday. Got confirmation today. I'm not sure if the authorized retailers will, may just be corporate.
[Nexus 6  General] helioXverse:
I ordered around 11pm on the 14th and I just got tracking numbers for FedEx overnight, due to arrive by 3pm 2moro. Oddly, its shipping from fort Worth but I live 45 min from googles kentucky shipping hub.

[Nexus 6  General] alhadee12:
I just got my tracking number. I hope it don't come in that ugly orange box. I also read it will have the AT&T logo on the back.
[Nexus 6  General] caspersfi:
Yeah I got the same thing. Fort Worth. I live in SE West Virginia.
[Nexus 6  General] roachmonster:
Add me to list of people anxiously waiting....just got my tracking number (pre-ordered on the 14th around 12pm CST).

Tracking info shows it'll be here tomorrow, although going from Fort Worth to where I live in Louisiana is usually a pretty fast shipping turn-around.
[Nexus 6  General] 98HTTR91:
Ordered on the 14th. Just got my shipping number. Regular ATT Order status page shows shipped with my shipping number. Odd that Premier status still has not been updated. Delivery on Friday! Gonna be a good weekend. :good:
[Nexus 6  General] P1 Wookie:
I wonder if me fussing at them got mine escalated. Mine said ship date 11/20-11/24. I just checked and it shipped today via FedEx Standard Overnight (I'm not premier). Supposed to be here tomorrow.

Edit: just saw a lot of folks are getting FedEx overnight it seems.

Also, I could care less about the death star being on it or not. I have a dbrand skin on the way as well.
[Nexus 6  General] eb50:
my order went from Shipping 18/19 and now its moved to "Pending Confirmation"

hopefully that is good news. ordered 11/15

EDIT: logged into ATT (vs premier) and now i have tracking info from fedex! Shipping from Fort Worth, 2nd day (I live in NH)
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
From others statuses, that's movement in the right direction.
[Nexus 6  General] XtheBaker:
WOW seems like a lot of folks are getting overnight shipping:p My USPS “tracking number” is still like a pond of dead water.
[Nexus 6  General] eb50:
For the premier members, it looks like there is a lag between the premeir order status and ATT.com order status. I recall the same thing happened during the iphone6 launch for my wife.

ATT.com gave me tracking, premier said "pending confirmation"

GOGOGO! Hope this is everything I am hoping for.
[Nexus 6  General] Dartman-x:
I received an email with a USPS tracking number, but "no information is available at this time" is all I get from the USPS.com link :crying:
[Nexus 6  General] Bjray:
FINALLY! Thank God...

It's shipped via FedEx Overnight. I was in the 21/25 group, ordered it late on 18th @ 12AM.

EDIT: Received a text from ATT saying it shipped also.
[Nexus 6  General] 413vzwh8r:
Just checked again, shipped out! And apprently themyth about new subscribers getting overnight is true. Expected delivery tomorrow!
[Nexus 6  General] kkl0wn:
Ordered 30 mins after launch and just got a tracking number. 2 day FedEx to California, will be here Friday!
[Nexus 6  General] heingtaing:
USPS Tracking number as well but shows as NOT FOUND on USPS.com

Does anyone with USPS tracking number have actually information when tracked at the website?

[Nexus 6  General] Konikub:
Mine was just shipped via UPS....and it has the tracking number, but no updates as to where it is. It says check back later. Looking around on the UPS page, it also says UPS Ground...which is the slowest. So I assume FED EX people got the overnight shipping and us UPS and USPS are stuck with 1-5 business days, haha. I so don't want to wait until Monday, but I will if needs be. I'll be checking the tracking number all night to see if there is an update/scheduled delivery time.
[Nexus 6  General] sfidelisrp:
NOOOOOOO!!!!!! My heart just dropped.
[Nexus 6  General] marper123:
We were all in denial until now. The next stage of grief is anger.
[Nexus 6  General] super80e:
My status just changed to shipped by fedex but the Tracking Number doesn't work says cannot be found
[Nexus 6  General] Konikub:
Could be worse. It could be Verizon, with two red check marks on the back, and one on the front.

(side-note: holy guns batman!!)
[Nexus 6  General] Bjray:
Good thing I pre-ordered a dbrand skin...
[Nexus 6  General] r34p3rex:
I gave in and ordered from Premier just now.. even though I really wanted to get a 64GB one :(

Funny thing is the email states "Your Nexus 6 has been reserved and is expected to ship on or around 11/18/2014. "

Does this mean they read my mind yesterday and shipped it out in anticipation of me ordering today? hahaha
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Agreed, the att globe is much more bearable than verizon's checkmark branding.

Ps. USPS tracking is the worse.
[Nexus 6  General] tawfiqmp:
Yep. That does it. I'll probably sell this off on eBay or Craigslist and try to buy the 64gb from the Play Store or Motorola.
[Nexus 6  General] Konikub:
Oh well. My UPS just updated with the scheduled delivery date...and it's Monday. I must not be a premiere customer, cause I was given USP ground and not one-day or overnight like so many others have gotten. Such is life. I can hold out until Monday, or pray UPS is faster than they think they are...and it gets here Friday instead. :)
[Nexus 6  General] Baldilocks:
You would know if you were a Premier customer. Do you get a service discount through work or because you belong to an organization? Those things will get you a premier account.

Even that doesn't give you overnight shipping. I am a premier customer and mine was shipped 2DAY shipping.
[Nexus 6  General] Konikub:
I do have a 24% discount from where I work. I had no idea I was, or even if I am a premier customer. I went into my local corporate AT&T and they preordered it for me...after I paid off my Galaxy S5. You'd think they would have hooked me up with the Premier account, lol.
[Nexus 6  General] Baldilocks:
Chances are you already have one. If you try to order online from your regular AT&T account, it will take you to the premier website to order.
[Nexus 6  General] earsmccoy:
This looks pretty cool. I think I'm going to have to check it out.
[Nexus 6  General] h0bnail:
I believe the 1 day shipping is only for new accounts.
[Nexus 6  General] Xirta:
I just got a tracking number showing overnight shipping, and I have been with the Deathstar since about 2001.
[Nexus 6  General] P1 Wookie:
Yeah I've been with them since cingular and got overnight.
[Nexus 6  General] Bjray:
I'm not. Been with AT&T since '03 I believe. Most of us are getting the N6 at the same time, just in different batches.

Shipped on 18th with 2-day shipping = 20th delivery | Shipped 19th with overnight shipping = 20th delivery.
[Nexus 6  General] h0bnail:
Yeah, maybe that's it.
[Nexus 6  General] dsmitty166:
Ok, so those of you who got them already? What's the bootloader like?
[Nexus 6  General] heingtaing:
New account but I received USPS shipping...
[Nexus 6  General] TJB27:
Yeah as others have stated i think it just has to do with the batches. I have been with them since April..FINALLY switched from verizon due to poor coverage where i live. Not long after i switched to AT&T they put 4G LTE in my area (ATT DID NOT VERIZON):victory:. Super Happy. Anyways, mine was shipped today with a delivery of tomorrow by 8:00pm. Just got a notification that it left Texas and is in transit!!

Why couldn't they just leave the device alone. Just like the beloved iPhone :eek: , but as long as we can unlock that bootloader all is well :D.
[Nexus 6  General] 413vzwh8r:
GAHH! I can deal with the mini death star, and being carrier locked for now...

But there must be some way to put the boots to the bootup nonsense....

I won't have it!
[Nexus 6  General] ervin10:
If we can unlock the bootloader, we should be able to flash Google's Stock Image and all will be right in the world :D.
[Nexus 6  General] Bjray:
You know what... I'm so doing that. I never want to see that logo on bootup.
[Nexus 6  General] phewizzo:
So AT&T is the only carrier to brand and even change the boot animation on the phone... This is terrible. Im really thinking about returning mines and buying a 64 gb from T Mobile
[Nexus 6  General] CraigP17:
Whhhhhhhhhhat? So the software is in fact tampered with? This will most definitely effect software updates. This is ridiculous.
[Nexus 6  General] ervin10:
If we can unlock the bootloader, we should be able to flash Google's Stock Image and all will be right in the world :D.

Edit:

But that does get me thinking, if the boot animation is different does that mean that AT&T will be in charge for all the future OTA updates? Also I wonder what other system changes they did.
[Nexus 6  General] CraigP17:
I will have mine up for sale on swappa Friday. This is no nexus.
[Nexus 6  General] 413vzwh8r:
Just unlock the boot loader, and use google files for updates. At&t can suck it.

[Nexus 6  General] chrisrotolo:
THIS

Seriously, if we can get convert ATT N6 to Goggle Play N6, as much as I'd rather not, I'll burn my upgrade to get one.

I'll wait it out a few weeks, to see if they maybe they get a 64GB.
[Nexus 6  General] eep2378:

I wasn't even planning on getting this phone, but the excitement on this thread was contagious.

I get mine tomorrow too, but i wanna know tonight.

[Nexus 6  General] Baldilocks:
Wondering if it has the AT&T carrier ID in the notification area like other AT&T Android phones.
[Nexus 6  General] purpl3rain:
Won't care too much about the branded logo on the back of the device. It doesn't seem to be screaming out like a Verizon logo.

Unlock, root, and recovery is all that's needed. Can't wait to get mine tomorrow, along with everyone else who's big day is tomorrow.
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
Guys - The Google factory images will NOT get rid of the AT&T logo. The factory images package does not include a default logo.img for flashing the logo partition. That's where AT&T's boot screen lives. The Moto X has something similar. It allows carriers to customize the boot logo without actually tampering with the main ROM. So, you'll have to get a rip of a logo partition from a non-AT&T Nexus 6 and flash that. The factory image won't cut it.
