I've also changed SIMs countless times at AT&T, I've never been charged.
[Nexus 6  General] jmo742:
I'm on Straight Talk and on AT&T's network. I bought a nano sim card through Straight Talk just for the Nexus 6 and figured I could just activate the nano sim through my existing account. Am I correct? I really don't want to cut my current sim card.
[Nexus 6  General] jmbrooks9:
I was able to order a Nexus 6 today. The status in my google wallet is pending and I haven't seen them try to authorize my card for any money. Is this normal or should I have seen a charge by now? I paid with a credit card btw.
[Nexus 6  General] jhumps:
someone posted a conversation with T mobile and they said nexus 6 comes with a sim in the box.......im assuming as long as you are a customer no need to buy one if it already come with it

---------- Post added at 05:02 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:57 AM ----------

thats normal my nexus player was "pending" weeks ago then today it posted it does it for phones as well, you'll most likely see it post right before they ship it
[Nexus 6  General] sgloki77:
I was checking, it seems the shamu will be shipping from Louisville, Kentucky(as previous Nexuses) via UPS, for us folks on the east coast that have ground shipping, it will still be 1 or 2 business days, depending on how far you are from this UPS facility, which is good
[Nexus 6  General] nutmonkey:
"Just got my shipping notification from Google Play!!!!" .... said no future Nexus 6 owner, EVER
[Nexus 6  General] rman18:
It was under order details, but it switched back to the November 19th statement.
[Nexus 6  General] acheney1990:
Damn...lol. Got the notification for your post and just saw the first part and thought it was true. :eek:
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
Who knows these days, but Motorola send consistent about giving people the same ship date, however they can't decide if its coming from China or Texas.
[Nexus 6  General] 2015Ducatimulti:
Yeah I ordered on Moto website, and that`s what I have is delivery is 19th, I actually have Moto X 2014 right now in processing through customs on its way to me from China, I still can`t for the life of me wonder why wouldn`t they ship from a warehouse in the states, instead of directly shipping to me, all the way from china:confused:
[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
I don't know either, I tried to ask if I could pay for over night shipping and they said they can't change the speed even if I paid for it which is dumb.
[Nexus 6  General] nutmonkey:
ROFLMAO, sorry that wasn't my intention but still funny... If google doesn't hurry up and ship Im breaking out the next best thing Moto makes... the StarTac who needs a 5.9" screen when you have an actual antenna.
[Nexus 6  General] 2015Ducatimulti:
take it with a grain of salt, but I was told by moto rep on ther chat, the Moto X would come from texas or china , and the nexus 6 would come from china, I ordered and all black moto x 2014 with orange trim on monday(nov 10th) , and that shipped from china, go figure.:eek: and my shipping speed from china is Fedex international priority service
[Nexus 6  General] NexUsandThem:
Yeah they are coming from China via ship it seems. At this rate we'll have them by January. ;)
[Nexus 6  General] 2015Ducatimulti:

[Nexus 6  General] Sentrix27:
I'm in the Motorola first batch, with the 11/19 delivery date and nothing yet. Supposedly first batch is supposed to ship today or tomorrow (11/13). Wouldn't be surprised though, to see it not ship at all this week after they couldn't provide shipments to T-Mobile, which no doubt would be a higher priority than individuals like us.
[Nexus 6  General] droidguy22:
Just spoke with a Moto Suprvisor - Mine is 11/19 expected devivery date, they are going to ship tomorrow 11/13 via Fedex from China, I would recieve an email by tomorrow with tracking info.

He sounded very positive about the shipping date, warehouse location and delivey dates.

It looks like 19th is the launch date for the Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6  General] marc.ientilucci:
for those who got an order in with Google Play last wed. what is the ETA for delivery?

i have one ordered from Moto for delivery date of DEC 2, but if i can get one earlier thru google i'd rather do that since their customer care has always been great for me.
[Nexus 6  General] madj42:
I got mine in at 12:13 and my date is 11/21.

[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
Well, I decided to go hunting for the Nexus 6 at T-Mobile stores tonight. I went to 3 and none of them had it. (not surprisingly) One of the stores, I missed out by only a few minutes; someone at the store was getting set up with the last one in stock.

Then, I went into a Best Buy to rage buy a Nexus 9. OOS as well.

Nobody wants my money. :(

[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Sorry Amigo. :(

I called Sprint and BestBuy as of tonight both had stock of blue 32GB N6. Blue is what I want anyway I'm planning on killing my N6 pre-order (via chargeback/fail-to-deliver and after that on Black Friday waltzing into Sprint and buying one outright. 32GB if needs be. And just OTG if I need more storage for ROMs/backups/media.
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
I don't even need the 64GB. My N4 was 8GB and my N5 is 16GB. I typically stream music from Google Play Music. I just bought it because it was the first page I was able to load and successfully submit. If I would have went 32GB. I'd be a happy camper.

EDIT: Looks like Artem from AP is in the same boat as us. He should have gotten in the whiskey pool. https://plus.google.com/107797272029781254158/posts/1bnFBUNMhq8
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
If I kept my Google play 32 white order I would have had it by now. Let us know how the charge back goes.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
I shot AP a link about this nonsense, including the whiskey pool, a week ago. Wonder why AP wouldn't do a piece about a problem so widespread that even one of their contributors is suffering it.
[Nexus 6  General] lensgrabber:
Okay I just got my shipping notice. Ordered 11/12 with a ship date of today. Notice came in at 22:35. Two day shipping so I'll probably not get anything until Monday. :( At least I know it's on the way! 64gb CW GPS
[Nexus 6  General] Razviar:

[Nexus 6  General] JeepFreak:
Blue 32gb just shipped. Is there a thread for trading? I really wanted a 64gb... And in white if possible. Maybe somebody wanted a 32gb in blue and wants to trade?

[Nexus 6  General] KerryWood34:
Got shipment email for my 32GB MB N6 from GPS tonight. Got overnight shipping, but not sure if I'll get it on Friday or not...
[Nexus 6  General] Ballastatuz:
Still waiting might order a moto x on cyber monday to hold me over.
[Nexus 6  General] banzaiwolfe:
Looks like mine is missing the 11/26 ship by date, so I won't have it to use at all this weekend.

Really hope it makes it by Wednesday or Thursday next week before I leave on vacation.
[Nexus 6  General] ajbattaglia83:
My 11/19 order shipped and will be here tomorrow now I can't go back to sleep. Happy Thanksgiving to all!!

[Nexus 6  General] michaelnel:
I think you are wrong.
[Nexus 6  General] beelow319:
Well 26th has came and went. No shipping notification for me and my order status on play store now shows blank.

Hope everyone has happy thanksgiving whether or not you've received your nexus :)
[Nexus 6  General] wvcadle:
I talked with a T-Mo rep yesterday and he said based on his experience, he expects the phones on back order to start shipping next week. He made clear that he didn't have any "inside information", but from his 6 years of experience at T-Mo, he was confident of his prediction. I told him he doesn't have experience dealing with Google, and will probably be wrong. All of this was said as I was cancelling my order.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
USB OTG.
[Nexus 6  General] tonystarks260:
Shipping for the 11/12 GPS 32GB MB came through at 12:30 this morning. The google rep i chatted with let me know that he would refund my shipping on overnight delivery, even though today is a holiday. Didnt even have to ask him about that, he just offered it up. I wasn't expecting it but thats pretty ok in my book.

All in all i should finally be on the team Friday. Happy Turkey Day to everyone in here!
[Nexus 6  General] Makyr:
Managed to order my first Nexus device on the Play Store's Wednesday restock!

Nexus 6 (64GB, Midnight Blue)

Leaves warehouse on

12/10/14
[Nexus 6  General] wvcadle:
On-board memory > USB OTG. I'm so over having to plug storage into my "phone". Yes, it's a solution, but a terrible one.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Having a phone...beats not having a phone.

I've been waiting for a phone for 3 weeks, and the first honest Moto rep I talked to admitted last night that my order is no close to being fulfilled now than a month ago....while orders weeks and 1000s later have already been delivered. I can either continue waiting until Xmas (or who knows) for the 64GB I ordered and paid for and still do not have...

Or I can drive to Sprint Friday and walk out with a 32GB and live with OTG. I think the choice is obvious. The idiots at Lenovo/Moto.com do not deserve their money.
[Nexus 6  General] wvcadle:
I hear ya. No knocking on your choice. But unless bandwidth is an issue, isn't cloud storage another better option than carrying around a thumb drive and OTG cable?
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Service can be spotty especially in the sticks on Sprint. Further I always carry a thumb drive on my keys 'biner anyway. And even with a 64GB N6, you can run out of space easy if you try to load it up. Hell my music library, and video library (that had a huge undesired delete of it happen) are both well over 64GB individually. While the music is mostly FLAC, the video doesn't even cover DVD rips.
[Nexus 6  General] wvcadle:
Yeah, at one time, I had over 50,000 songs in my music library. I just keep my main stuff on my phone ~10GB, and using Amazon Prime to listen to anything I don't have. I.. just.. can't.. watch movies on my phone. I can barely watch them on my laptop, so no problem with those taking up storage on my phone.

As for Sprint.. I had similar service with nTelos (Sprint/nTelos share towers). It was great around the interstate corridors, but 2 miles away from the interstate, and it was spotty. I live in WV, and Sprint just doesn't cut it.

I always find it interesting hearing how people use their phones though.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
I'm not sure what all I'll use the N6 for on the media front. I'm used to tinny crappy rear facing Samsung speakers that have all the desirable acoustic traits of a screaming parrot.
[Nexus 6  General] wvcadle:
Sounds about like how the N4 and N5 speakers have been. Very underwhelming.

Btw... sometime tomorrow, I'm going to post how I went about obtaining a 64GB MB. I'm actually going to order it tomorrow, but one is guaranteed for me. I may not go into specifics, but with a little bit of thinking one can figure out how I went about it.
[Nexus 6  General] wtherrell:
And I think YOU are wrong! Let's face it: each person has their own idea of how they use their device. Many, like me, wouldn't buy this phone if it were offered in only a 32gb version. Had that on my Gnex & wasn't enough. The cloud, when it's available, has proven too slow and unreliable for me. I would have abandoned Verizon for a T-Mobile Note4 where you can unlock boot loader, have sdcard, and removeabe battery were it not for the 64gb version.

---------- Post added at 09:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 AM ----------

Not a bad solution. Slightly cumbersome,even with a Meenova. But now I can expand even beyond the 64gb!
[Nexus 6  General] Kasha:
My tracking status is stuck at 'A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated.'

Is it due to a holiday in the USA today?
[Nexus 6  General] wvcadle:
I'm sure it is. I have a few things on the way from various retailers. All shipping stops on holidays in the U.S.
[Nexus 6  General] Kasha:
That's a pity :crying:

But still my phone is getting shipped!
[Nexus 6  General] wvcadle:
...which makes for a good day!
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Yup, beats being caught in pre-order hell like the 16 of us still are in the whiskey contest.
[Nexus 6  General] jbaysingar:
Well the 26th has come and gone, and nothing. :mad:

11/12 GPS 64 Blue

11/26 ship date

Overnight shipping.

I was given the standard lie yesterday from CS - "Your phone is scheduled to ship today." That obviously didn't happen.

My order status is now blank, so I have no idea when they might ship. I waited patiently for two weeks under the naive assumption that, at the latest, they'd make their ship date. Now I'm facing an open-ended wait, with CS unwilling/unable to provide updated information, and I find myself frustrated and wondering how a company as large as Google can be so incompetent at selling and delivering their flagship phone.
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
Here are my hypotheses on the (Motorola) delay.

1) The carriers pre-sold many more units than anticipated so the stock is going to them first. Us peons are getting skipped.

2) Production was halted for some sort of hardware revision and they are now behind a week or two.

3) They have a family of monkeys fulfilling orders, throwing phones in random shipping boxes like its dung.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
LOL...

Chatting with Moto now to cancel my order....they're pulling the old "it is not possible to cancel orders once submitted" gag. To which I responded:

"My order was cencelled for reasons no one could ever explain 2 weeks ago....Then got resubmitted and stuck. So a cancellation is necessarily possible"
[Nexus 6  General] saint327:
Just adding another datapoint...

Ordered 11/12 at 1:21pm est. from gps. Est ship date was 11/26

32gb mb with standard shipping

Got tracking yesterday around 7pm. Scheduled delivery so far is 12/1

Feel bad for all those in limbo. FWIW I never inquired about my order to cusotomer service.
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
I'm going to go with 1 and 3. More likely 3 since it seems the carriers can get them faster and probably had stock shipped to them well before the 12th.

Yay can't wait to see what the reps tell me when I call in Monday and they say well your estimated delivery date is 12/1. You should get your device then.

Like I mentioned earlier one of the reps said there is a delay and are on backorder, they are out of stock, and no information when more will come in.

It's like my current phone is dying but seems I'm just not destined to replace it.

I'm also positive those from Google play will get theirs before us moto customers.
[Nexus 6  General] wvcadle:
I've always thought that since they were going with a mass carrier release, they'd have entered into a contract with each of them to supply them first, not selling it in the Play Store simultaneously, which would undermine their new-found BFF relationship with the carriers.

The hardware revision theory scares me..
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
Please let me know how it goes. Come Monday if I do not have another delay email or my phone..and I probably won't, I'm going to try cancelling as well.

I just don't see the point in waiting for who knows what to happen any more.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Here's my latest chat transcript:

Christopher: Hi, my name is Christopher. How may I help you?

Marc: Hi there, I'd like to cancel an order I made with Motorola

Marc: Order # XXXXXXXXXX

Christopher: Thanks. One moment.

Christopher: Can you please verify the email address and the phone number in the order?

Marc: _________@gmail.com

Marc: (XXX)-XXX-XXXX

Christopher: Great.

Christopher: I checked the order and it's on exported status. We can no longer cancel the order.

Christopher: We can process refund once you got the package.

Marc: It has been on "exported status" for 3 weeks.

Marc: The estimated delivery window has already been missed

Christopher: I understand and I do apologized for the inconvenience.

Marc: When I spoke to Moto chat last night the agent admitted that they have no information in system as to when it might ever ship

Christopher: But our system will not allow us to cancel the order.

Marc: Sure it will

Marc: My order was cencelled for reasons no one could ever explain 2 weeks ago

Marc: Then got resubmitted and stuck. So a cancellation is necessarily possible

Christopher: I understand that you want to cancel it now but we can't cancel it anymore because of the status. Like what I said, we can process refund once you receive the package. You can call us on our support line so they can process refund. Contact us at: 1-800-734-5870

Marc: Look just cancel it and save us all time and grief. I'm going to my credit union tomorrow and under the Fair Credit Billing Act filing either a chargeback or failure to deliver notice

Marc: Because after all the lying by previous moto reps about my order status (no less than 3 times have I been told my order was about to ship)...and now retail availability of the device locally...and on top of all that orders weeks later and 1000s higher in order number are already fulfilled...

Marc: I'm done.

Marc: My order is no closer to fulfillment today than it was 3 weeks ago when Moto cancelled it themselves.

Marc: So just cancel it and save all of us time and effort

Christopher: I can not guarantee that it will be cancelled when I placed the request. But you will be notify for any updates.

Marc: All I ask is a cancel and a refund. And getting that would by all I ask

Marc: Because as I've said I'm chatting with my credit union who issued my Visa on Friday morning about consumer protections

Christopher: I understand that. You will be notify for any updates.

Marc: Thank you

Christopher: If you need any more information get in touch. Thanks from Motorola, bye!

You have disconnected.
[Nexus 6  General] wvcadle:
Boom! Anyway, check back here Friday evening. Once I see my 64GB MB N6 "en route", as in "having left the care of its sender and in the hands of the carrier", I'll post how I got someone to listen to, respond, and sell me a phone, all within the same day.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
LOL...Hopefully by then I will already have an N6 in my hot hands. Moto still hasn't altered my order status or emailed me yet.

I was really pissed when my order got held then cancelled (for reasons no one could explain)....now it plays into my hands dealing with reps who make NSA-like-claims that their system is too complicated to stop it from deleting evidence.

PS: for people wondering WTH the Fair Credit Billing Act is, what a non-delivery notice is, and what your rights are as a consumer...get thee to the FTC website:

http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0221-billed-merchandise-you-never-received-heres-what-do

Lots of what Motorola is doing is questionably legal. Note IANAL.
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
I wonder if the bank that finances moto credit will let you do a charge back.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
See the FTC cite I linked to above. You may have state/local protections. Either way that is a question for a lawyer.

I'm talking to my CU tomorrow, and they'll do everything they can. Joy of a CU that cares, and not a megabank.
[Nexus 6  General] mm2kay:
Ive posted on the ups facebook page stating their fullfillment center sucks. Of course they wanted me to email them but i expressed their shortfalls publically.
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
Yea my bank is a credit union too I just never applied for their credit card as I have plenty others. I'm sure they have similar policies. Gonna wait until next week to decide. If there was another phone I wanted I'm telling you by now I would have cancelled and got it. But there aren't many options for my taste.
[Nexus 6  General] Toaplan:
This wait is very boring and painful, but at least it's still on track I guess.

I'm really hoping there's some sort of hardware revision that makes it into the batch of devices that mine will ship from. That would justify the wait for me a bit.
[Nexus 6  General] 12MaNy:
So, I ordered my Nexus 6 on 11/21. When I ordered, I asked the sales rep which delivery service they were going to use because I have a temporary PO box because there is road construction going on on my street an mail wont deliver there. The sales rep assured me that it would be shipped UPS or FedEx, so I said ok ship it to my address then because they will deliver it to my house.

A day later, I get the tracking email from AT&T and.......THEY SHIPPED IT USPS!

Son of a......%+&!/$*×%+=;!&!*$!!!!!!!

So I called USPS and they said they will not hold the package or even route it to my PO box under any circumstance. So now I have to wait until my phone gets shipped back to AT&T and then ship it back to me again.....and the kicker is, AT&T didn't offer me anything to try to make this right. :mad:

Goddamn I hate AT&T and USPS.
[Nexus 6  General] garyHal:
Everybody who ordered a 64W from MOTO, go ahead and cancel so that I could be bumped up in the list :)
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
Except there is no order of who gets it shipped or not. They are out of stock on back order and they do not know when they will get more in stock. Especially both 64 gb models. Looking at the whiskey spreadsheet, there are 2-3 blue 64 models that haven't shipped and about 13 white 64 models. Of those white ones, mine and 2 others I think are moto orders the rest are Google play.

From what we saw this week, Google play devices at least some shipped, even if those people are not in the contest.
[Nexus 6  General] silentkry:
sigh... wish GPS would've just gave everyone 1 day shipping when they sent it out tuesday night. now my phone is sitting 20 miles away from me being all lonely and stuff. : /
[Nexus 6  General] KainamHD:
I bet it's getting cold too. UPS probably turned off the heat in the warehouse today. :(
[Nexus 6  General] r3boosted:
64GB Blue arrived Wed 11/26 (was est. 12/2), shipped on Monday, ordered through Moto 11/6, low 3000s order # to the east coast.

She's a beauty. Glad to be on the bandwagon, upgraded from a VZW Galaxy Nexus.
[Nexus 6  General] Planters76:
Had my Nexus 6 for 1 day and now I have a reddish tint at the bottom of the screen, Called Motorola and I am returning it. I will not be getting another since the ordering process is outrageous.
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
Did they not offer rma?
[Nexus 6  General] Planters76:
Yes but I told them I wasn't paying 700 dollars to have a problem child. Funny thing, it look great until I unlock it and rooted the device. I am going to lock it and reload s/w and see if it goes away before I send it back. If it doesn't come back it either has to be unlocking it or the root . Will post my findings in a day
