Totally applies. Hahaha
[Nexus 6  General] Knight-Rider:
Lol nice.
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
Why did you lie and say you didn't get a Ship By date? i can see the "21" at the top of your photo
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Old pointy ears clearly never had a Nexus 6
[Nexus 6  General] RoscoeDpG:
well atleast on a positive note all 3 of my 6 cases are shipped lol
[Nexus 6  General] ryanapearce:
I meant that I didn't have an exact shipping date.
[Nexus 6  General] djkinetic:
I've been through every nexus launch since the Gnex, i remember limbo, luckily I got mine right away, so I didnt experience the delays...Point is at the time of launch LG did have phones in Google's hands, its Google's system that didnt limit the orders or track inventory properly, the N5 launch was a bit better and they had more stock, this launch has been hit and miss with no phones in stock.
[Nexus 6  General] Knight-Rider:
Think they had way too much stock of N5 so they don't want to do the same mistake with N6. I'm guessing that's why they are making them as people are ordering in bunches, hence the delay to all carriers.
[Nexus 6  General] elementaldragon:
I really don't see where people seem to be getting some sort of connection that T-Mobile pushing back the launch of the Nexus 6 means Google is pushing it back as well. Pretty sure T-Mobile is only doing so to make sure their stores have enough stock before they have everyone clamoring to one store or the other essentially buying up all their stock before they even have a chance. Kinda seems like the obvious point by the fact that we've already seen that their upcoming stock isn't what they expected, and will only be received by a select few number of stores.
[Nexus 6  General] SBGS-FTW:
I think the reality is Google holding it back for whatever reason (software bugs, stock, etc.) and less to do with T-Mobile. I went to numerous T-Mobile stores over the last 2 weeks in NYC, Brooklyn, Queens, and LI, and found that I was one of a handful of people that inquired about the N6 (if any at all). Even last night, a T-Mobile rep heard of the phone and knew it was coming but told me I was the first to ask about it.

This launch has tested the patience of any and everyone that got an order in. This time around though, there are no updates at all for anyone, which is different than previous launches. So, as much as I'd like to get it ASAP, you have to appreciate the caution Google is taking before sending out OTA's and releasing product that may have some serious bugs (there was another mobile OS that recently experienced that [emoji57] ).

FWIW, I ordered a 64 GB, Blue on 10/29 at 13:29 EST.

[Nexus 6  General] Pilz:
I also think t mobile didn't want to deal with angry people not being able to buy it in store because they don't have any on release day. As I stated earlier moto said orders are still shipping the 13th from China via FedEx. Its funny how people assume a connection that doesn't exist as you stated.
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
LG shipped the Nexus 4 by ship, then the shipping containers were taken OTR to Louisville. (Didn't hear about the N5)
[Nexus 6  General] Joshnor713:
I was told by two different Moto reps that it's shipping from their TX facility.
[Nexus 6  General] griff22usmc:
GPS order 11/5 MB32...i gave up after all of the run around and "investigations". Cancelled my order last night and bought a MB 64... Shipped and will be here wensday morn. No more headaches
[Nexus 6  General] verks:
Ordered 64gb 11/6 from moto. Just checked my FedEx app and boom, will be here Wednesday.
[Nexus 6  General] JermaNoiD:
You switched to A motorola purchase last night and it's going to beat all of us out? I HATE YOU, GOOGLE
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
As long as you didn't order a 64 gb white model you will get a phone.
[Nexus 6  General] JermaNoiD:
Yeah i got a white 64 on 11/5 from GPS. I wanted a blue, but In the heat of the moment... I didn't care what color, I just wanted to get my order in.
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
12:37 pm central. 64gb blue. Estimated delivery 26th.
[Nexus 6  General] gtalum:
So is anyone holding out hope that the 64 GB White will actually be shipping from Google Play tonight?
[Nexus 6  General] Danish2980:
Are you gonna make a N6 ROM? ?
[Nexus 6  General] ohhdavid:
Motorola says that my 64GB White will be overnighted from China tomorrow and arrive on Wednesday. I ordered it on 11/6 original ship date of 11/26, delayed to 12/1 but looks like it'll arrive right on schedule! Good job Motorola!
[Nexus 6  General] xanaxdroid:
Eventually. I'm working on making a device tree to boot on CM right now. I've gotten it to build but it has problems booting plus it's like 320MB. I've never had to make my own tree before so it might take some time.
[Nexus 6  General] JermaNoiD:
Me. I don't really have a choice. 32GB is probably enough for me, but I'm not settling this time like i did with the 16GB Nexus 5 just because it was quicker to get it at Best Buy (for more monies to boot).

And my F5 finger is still wounded from the Google Play debacle..
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
They lied to me too at least twice before. I never got any email or anything.
[Nexus 6  General] mzimand:
You are claiming you were able to order a phone from Motorola last night and you are getting it on Wednesday.

That is amazing.
[Nexus 6  General] pathtologos:
Ordered my blue 32 GB from t mobile last Thursday. Got it today! Never had such a painless wait. Good luck to you all!
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
//smooch//
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
I was just trolled by Moto with a "50% off accessories" email...

I care 0%. I just want my phone.
[Nexus 6  General] markwebb:
Got it as well. Haven't "shopped" yet.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
My XDA email account got hit with that this morning...only applies to crumby headphones and earbuds.
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
Well, I talked to Moto again, and they said it hasn't shipped yet (which is the opposite of what the told me the last two times), but it has been Exported. They offered me 10% off of any accessories, but I told them no. He assured me my phone would arrive on Wednesday.

We'll see....
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
I wonder why you don't sound assured? :silly:
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
You should have mentioned how everyone with a moto.com account got the 50% off email, and he only offered you 10% for the BS. :confused:
[Nexus 6  General] intekmdma:
Ah original ETA of 26th? With no shipping notification from FedEx? hmm I think I ordered after you since my original ETA was 12/2 :(

Sorry to hear it's somewhere lost in limbo
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
Yep
[Nexus 6  General] :
Oh life. My 2 TYLT Qi cradles came, and so did my Spigen case...... and no 64GB CW in sight.
[Nexus 6  General] Parvinder25:
Called GPS support today and as always they connected me to hardware specialist.. who then told me that they will check the issue with my order and revert by email. After sometime, i got an email saying that my device will be shipped from warehouse today following which i can expect tracking details. This line should definitely excite me but i have been hearing this for last few days.. so don't know to react. So as i said in my earlier post.. .the timer for hope is set for tonight which will expire tomorrow morning.. and again reset for tomorrow night .. until i get my device. :)
[Nexus 6  General] royfripple:
I guess at least the message is consistent now? That's what I was told when I called Saturday after they missed the 11/21 date.
[Nexus 6  General] gtalum:
And I got the same promise on Saturday. "it will ship Monday night". I remain skeptical but ever so slightly hopeful.
[Nexus 6  General] royfripple:
Yeah I've had my cheap XtremeGuard case for almost a week now (got it along with the glass screen protector as a hold-over 'til I decide on something nicer) and I've been holding that stupid case in my hand more than I care to admit. :D

I'm disappointed how long it's taking to get this phone but I looked at those unboxing photos posted here from yesterday I think it was and I have to say, that Cloud White phone is sexay. :cool:
[Nexus 6  General] knite19:
I ordered (1) 32GB Blue and (1) 32GB White from Moto.

Order date: 11/12

Expected: 12/2

From Fedex - Shipping from BLOCK A, F1 BIOENGINEERING BUILDING

Anticipated Ship Date: 11/24

Estimated Arrival: 11/26 :good:
[Nexus 6  General] venturizhou:
Ordered 11/12 8PMish from GPS for 32GB CW with a leaves warehouse date of 11/21. It just arrived at my local customer center seeing if I can pickup today. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
I tempted to contact Moto again today and see what expected ship date they give me now.
[Nexus 6  General] Ep3n3wp:
Just got mine!!!!! Eeekkk haven't turned it on yet... Love feel and build quality
[Nexus 6  General] griff22usmc:
Nope I didn't claim anything(you can check my post) . Forgot to include that I bought it off of Swappa last night... 2day air
[Nexus 6  General] k2buckley:
Well I haven't heard anything from moto, nor has anything with my order info changed, but fed ex delivery manager shows that my label's been created, and shows expected delivery on the 26th. Original delivery date was Dec 2nd. Ordered 64gb midnight blue on the 5th. I wasn't expecting anything until next week. I'll be stoked if this pans out.
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
That's good I guess the white 64 is completely out of stock no matter what moto tells you. My delivery manager is screwed. I had a FedEx package that got delivered from Verizon and never had it show up in there.
[Nexus 6  General] Jocelyn:
Just got a shipping notice via wallet/Gmail with tracking info. Ordered 32gb CW on Nov 18 (assume it was a cancelled order), had 11/21 ship date.
[Nexus 6  General] Parvinder25:
^^^^

From all the chat in your post with rep, i am concerned about this line only.. "If you do not have your shipping confirmation by tomorrow morning at the very latest, please let me know via email."

you will be focusing on this statement tomorrow. :)
[Nexus 6  General] :
^^^^ Gonna have to +1 Parvinder25 on this one. I've heard that line so many times last week.
[Nexus 6  General] vandizzam:
Same here. Lies, all lies!
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Yup. Cry wolf enough times, and no one believes you.

BTW you in on the Jack Daniel's gambit? Didn't hear PM from you yet.
[Nexus 6  General] vandizzam:
Yeah I'm in. You just need the screenshot?
[Nexus 6  General] :
How do we pay for the bottle?
[Nexus 6  General] jbaysingar:
Where did you order from, GPS?

If so, how did you get an 11/21 ship date on an 11/18 order? I ordered from GPS on 11/12, and got an 11/26 ship date. The people who ordered on 11/19 were given a 12/3 ship date.

Given your order date, yours was almost certainly a cancelled order. It's possible that it was a phone from the first batch, and you inherited the 11/21 ship date because Google associated the ship date with the inventory batch, instead of the order date. Basically, instead of getting a spot at the back of the line when you ordered, you may have jumped over most who ordered before you, and taken the place in line of the person who cancelled.

If that's the case, then Google really needs to learn how to process sales in the order they were placed. It seems most of the shipping randomness is due to the UPS fulfillment, but assigning the ship dates is on Google.
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
Yea moto has to learn the same thing.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Yup, see the rules in either the OP of this thread or in my siggie

I'm thinking we all PayPal our individual cut to the "winner". And per OP, "winner posts pic of said bottle. Given that presently all of us are in for $2 at most it shouldn't hurt one way or another. I suppose otherwise I could take the $$ collectively as I'm contest organizer buy the bottle and ship it...but given that I'm not at all certain everyone in the contest is over their state's legal drinking age it gets legally a bit hairy. shipping booze over state boundaries.
[Nexus 6  General] Parvinder25:
You can ship couple of cases for nexus 6. It would be sweet to dress our phone after such a long wait.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Someone on reddit who ordered from Motorola claims Motorola sent him an ATT tramp stamped Nexus 6...sans ATT bootsplash.

Who's getting excited?!

A) Rules call for booze. That was the contract to start

2) Besides, the problem with shipping anything is that it adds to the tab for all participants. A

III) And further, I think after all the nonsense of this badly botched "pre-order"...none of us are going to want to deal with shipping or having to recieve via shipping anything for a months at least.
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
If I get a ATT tramp stamp on mine after all of this....
[Nexus 6  General] Jocelyn:
Oh I forgot to mention, but yes, it was indeed from GPS. Anyway, I believe your analysis to be correct.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Granted it is Reddit and the guy didn't post proof...but I'm willing to believe an inventory-starved company would take a short cut like this given lots of pissed customers:

https://www.reddit.com/r/nexus6/comments/2nbhmf/so_just_received_my_phone_from_motorola_with_the/
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
I will be pissed if mine comes like that. Definitely will return it if that happens.
[Nexus 6  General] royfripple:
I'm fine with all of us sending you the money ahead of time and you dole it out to the "winner".

That way we're sure everyone ponies up the big bucks. :)
[Nexus 6  General] Andromjb:
Lot's of people claiming a bunch of BS stuff with no proof or evidence leaves me not concerned at all.

The only one I am keeping my eye on is this screen burn in issue.... Still no one has posted ANY form of proof...
[Nexus 6  General] El Daddy:
The only burn in I'm worried about is the Motorola order history page on my laptop.
[Nexus 6  General] royfripple:
Hahahaha, best quote of the thread. :)

---------- Post added at 08:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 PM ----------

Well, 8:15 CDT, I'm starting to wonder whether tonight is still a possibility for shipping.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
2015 USA CST Monday night, means 1015AM Tuesday morning in Hong Kong...for reference.
[Nexus 6  General] royfripple:
Would that matter for GPS orders though? Wouldn't ours have to be here already or do they come in with the main moto shipments and then get sent to UPS for processing?
[Nexus 6  General] GHII:
There's no reason for the early GPS 64gb white orders not to ship tonight. Moto received some boxes of them and got them out to their orders by Friday, Google has to have them by now.
[Nexus 6  General] Imacellist:
I hope it is true, but the lack of info concerns me. My google play rep hasn't responded with a shipping update yet.

---------- Post added at 06:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:26 PM ----------

In regards to the contest...May I suggest a slight modification, where instead of simply splitting a $30 tab between participants, anyone that wants to take part just sends say $3 to the organizer to be in. Then he can send that to the winner to by booze and share a pic with the purchase. This way it ensures that the losers (in this case I hope I am one) wont have an option to not pay. Also the more people in on it, the more the winner gets to buy even better bourbon ? or just 2 bottles lol.
[Nexus 6  General] Ballastatuz:
I'm too shy to call the playstore this week because last week the rep said he put notes on my account to let people know the situation lol.
[Nexus 6  General] royfripple:
I'm good with that, what do you think Skripka? Let us know and PM your PayPal info and I'll get my money sent.
[Nexus 6  General] tmmurri:
I'm certainly not holding my breath but I was a little surprised how quickly they were willing to say it was shipping out today. Regardless, I'll believe it when I see it and will be pressing them in the morning if I still don't have a shipping notification based one what they said. It was nice to have my shipping charges refunded without even mentioning it.
[Nexus 6  General] tsy87:
Just got off the phone with google. The initial support staff was useless. The girl from the shipping department was very friendly and acknowledged that there was something wrong with their shipments. To her credit, she did NOT give me any empty promises like "your item will ship out tonight!" or even give me a date. Oddly enough, I appreciate that much more than someone who tells me false information (like all my other times contacting google).

Here's to hoping that the item will ship today but honestly, I have absolutely 0 faith in google. I'm gonna start bing-ing alternatives.
[Nexus 6  General] :
Oh they'll make a reason i guarantee you that lol. I'm not holding my breath tonight.
[Nexus 6  General] Imacellist:
I've had "guarantees" for almost every day since it was supposed to ship. I called the day before and the guy said they guarantee that date. Come Saturday the person I talked to said it would ship that day or by latest Monday. Now it is Monday end of day and still no signs of shipping. If there were other devices for order I'd consider changing to a 32gb model just so I could actually see the device. I feel like they should work harder the fulfill the orders that cost customers more money than just ignoring then and providing empty promises. I hate hate hate empty promises. I'd rather here it won't ship for another week but have it guaranteed then get a false ship date every day this week.
[Nexus 6  General] Ballastatuz:
Yeah they are lying. I called google play the rep transferred me over to the shipping department, he told them that my order date was missed. So the girl in shipping told me that she saw it had been shipped on and she will call ups to investigate. Well she looked and saw my date was the 26th,so she was like oh he must have been mistaken. Then she said it had not been shipped out but it was at the dock ready for ups to ship it out, that Ups would not ship it until the 26th though. That i should receive my device on the 4th or 5th.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
I'll think about it overnight, how does that sound? I say that because starting $$ collection now necessarily means locking in the per-head entry $$ at a set rate at around $1.80 (currently have 16 green-lighted contestants with one known outstanding waiting on PM confirmation). I don't have a problem being the collection agency and payout-er, I just wonder about cutting off new entries now or keeping it going and taking money from new folks and having spare $$ left over. I like the idea, and think most people do, of everyone in on this scheme chips in a soda bottle sized fee and no free rides to late comers.

Just OTTOMH, I'm thinking of locking in entries tomorrow (night) or Wednesday...I don't want people feeling the need to be strapped to XDA attending to internet whiskey shenanigans instead of family at Thanksgiving, or missing getting mauled at Black-Friday shopping insanity. So lockin either needs to be before Thanksgiving or well afterward. I haven't had a whole lot of either objection to or input on steering this little game, so I'm trying to avoid rocking the boat over much with snap surprise calls.
[Nexus 6  General] Imacellist:
I like it. Probably best to do a cutoff date anyways. Its just a small contest to pass the time and I think most that would be interested are already participating. Giving a deadline for applying keeps things clean. I'll happily send my dues once we solidify the plans. Thanks for organizing this.
[Nexus 6  General] cornelious2:
Am I eligible? I have one blue 32 but my white 64 ordered 11/5 is in limbo.
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Sure you are. Read the OP for rules (or in my sig) :)
[Nexus 6  General] cornelious2:
Cool I'll get you the screenshot tonight.
[Nexus 6  General] PaisanNYC:
I had this guy last week... Tim O. from Shipping. Will say anything to get you to give him a 5 star review after the chat ends.
[Nexus 6  General] bmg1001:
AHHHHHH! I SCREAM, YOU SCREAM, ICE CREAM SANDWICH!

I'm order 3077. and I just jumped up! I live in an apartment, so tomorrow and/or 11/26 I will camp outside waiting for FedEx! GAH!
[Nexus 6  General] leyvatron:
Where's the flight tracker? 64gb CW is nowhere in sight. [emoji20]
[Nexus 6  General] ignatiusXIX:
I have no idea how people were able to track individual containers but FX5982 is on final to MEM now. So, if there is more supply on there-- hopefully more updates overnight/in the AM.
[Nexus 6  General] Parvinder25:
Yeah reps always ask you to take the survey in sweet voice. I initially took couple of surveys but then I always used to disconnect just when survey starts. What's the point when they are not improving.
[Nexus 6  General] Ballastatuz:
Yeah no use in lying for them.
[Nexus 6  General] Andromjb:
You mean this shipping container:

https://www.fedex.com/fedextrack/WT...672043&locale=en_US&cntry_code=us&language=en

;)

Flight just landed a few minutes ago, going to take a bit for them to unload.
[Nexus 6  General] ignatiusXIX:
That would be the one I guess. No idea how you guys pull that. When you get a label notice or shipping notice from FedEx, does it contain that info or what? I've said it before I'll say it here-- I don't use FedEx if I'm given an option, so I'm not totally familiar with their tools etc.
[Nexus 6  General] Imacellist:
Are these for moto orders or will some go to the ups facility and ship out google play orders? Or do we have any idea? Haha
[Nexus 6  General] Andromjb:
Motorola orders I assume. No idea if they merge them with GPS supply.

At 2,863.8 lbs it's over a 1,000 units..
[Nexus 6  General] sgvjon:
Odette, a Google play store rep, followed up with me, and sent me an email on Saturday saying that they would send me a tracking number as soon as my order ships, which would be before November 24. HA! Yeah.. Going to call them now to annoy them.

And i would like to add, that my honeybaked ham i ordered on nov 4, has sent me my tracking number, to be delivered tomorrow (the date I requested it to be delivered).

What's up Google?
[Nexus 6  General] Andromjb:
Woo! Status update for you guys waiting on

Motorola

11/26 deliveries!

10:38 pm

Arrived at FedEx location

MEMPHIS, TN
[Nexus 6  General] Imacellist:
That seems like such a small shipment for what seems to be a hot phone. They really are having a hard time making them. Unless ups picks them up from China too, it would make sense to do one big shipment and then ship some to ups but that is all conjecture.
[Nexus 6  General] biggiestuff:
Mine JUST touched down in memphis. Does anyone know how much longer it would take to get to Houston from now? I'm projected to get it Wednesday but I was hoping that it would leave tonight and be sorted out by morning and out for delivery :)
[Nexus 6  General] Andromjb:
They ship every day though and I do believe they separate the shipments/containers.
[Nexus 6  General] intekmdma:
Aww man- my 11/26 delivery date go pushed back to 12/1 :/

Guess I wont have time to play with it over turkey break
[Nexus 6  General] Skripka:
Still absolutely bupkiss on Moto.com, FedEx Manager, and "FUTIAN FRE" searching.
[Nexus 6  General] Andromjb:
I think Nexus broke FedEx tracking. It's not loading, lol.
[Nexus 6  General] ferdeenand:
It's loading on my end just fine... still mocking me with no shipments :(
[Nexus 6  General] Jsunn:
My backorder just updated on T-mobile:

BackOrder 11/24/2014 at 02:02:26 AM

I called and asked, they said that it's still backordered and they didn't have any update. :(

I ordered the 64 GB at 10:21 pm on the 18th of Nov...
[Nexus 6  General] byrdmang2:
Yeah so did mine.... I was so excited to play with it wednesday, not next monday..
[Nexus 6  General] vandizzam:
No shipping notices tonight either huh?
[Nexus 6  General] verks:
Check that. It updated again and now it won't arrive until 12/1. I really wanted it for the holiday weekend.
[Nexus 6  General] ferdeenand:
This appears to be the case :mad:
[Nexus 6  General] colinduong:
Update on Motorola order

64GB CW - 10:39 am PST 11/6
