Just Received my 64GB Midnight Blue Nexus 6!!!!!

Finally got my

Midnight Blue 64GB Nexus 6

. UPS just dropped it off, and I've yet to unbox it. I think I will wait for my Spigen case to get here before I actually activate the Nano SIM and start using it outside my house. Will crack it open shortly and set it up over WI-Fi though.

Got lucky with my order and was able to snag a 64GB on T-Mobile release day. Not sure if it makes any difference, but I paid for the phone outright, and have been a loyal customer for well over 10 years.

I've heard some people state on this forum that T-Mobile is giving priority to specific customers so I thought I'd add those details. I know plenty of people who ordered their 64GB variant of the Nexus 6 via T-Mobile, 8-9 hours before I did and are still waiting on back order.

I wanted the Midnight blue 64Gb anyway, so it all worked out. Had I wanted the CLoud WHite, I'd probably still be refreshing the Play Store. Glad that ordeal is over!

I know it's just a phone, but I am excited to have finally received it!! :good:

Hope you all receive yours soon! :o

P.S. If you read my original post on this thread., I stated the whole ordeal I went through when ordering this phone. Long story short, Ordering via tmobile.com was a serious headache, it took me calling customer care to have my order go through and ship the same day. Two of my online orders got screwed up and backordered prior to me finally calling 611 and ordering successfully.
[Nexus 6  General] Prod1702:
that email was only talking about 64gb not sure on the 32gb but i am sure it is as well.
[Nexus 6  General] V1ViD:
Well that makes no sense at all. It's like T-mobile has no concept of online ordering and pre-orders. First the super botched iPhone 6+ orders, now this. -sigh-
[Nexus 6  General] djj624:
I just spoke with t mobile to verify my order and after they confirmed my order is set they told me the phone was not on backorder that they can see.
[Nexus 6  General] 20degrees:
Has nobody else tweeted des or john about that empolyee email? If a bunch of people would, it would bring attn to it...
[Nexus 6  General] Android1126:
Photos

Nothing new, just some pics. 64GB configuration specified on front of Box.
[Nexus 6  General] d.cortez:
first, i'm not complaining just sharing what a rep told me about my order (i have a 32GB version). after the automated system couldn't find my order, the rep took over the call, reviewed my account and said my 5-day old "Being Processed" 64GB order and was on back-order because Motorola is having production issues and it could be 3 weeks before i receive my device.:eek:
[Nexus 6  General] Android1126:
That always show's for the reps until they get to processing the order, that is when you will see if it is backordered, or you are actually slated to get one.

Without going into detail, I spoke to a couple of reps on the phone and he and she both said the same thing until I ordered, then it went on backorder right after they submitted my order. It probably means that they do have some in stock, but like all other avenues, it's harder to actually snag, as it dries up nearly as fast as it refreshes in T-Mobile's system.

That's what I believe, and that is also what a number of reps stated.
[Nexus 6  General] Prod1702:
The rep that said production issues has no clue. there is no email within tmobile that talks about production issues. They are pulling BS out of their ass to tell you.
[Nexus 6  General] d.cortez:
yep, i thought as much; that would be a newsworthy event for this community. no biggie for me tho... using ATT version for another week before returning it and waiting for my T-Mobile 64GB.
[Nexus 6  General] nemesys504:
Back order shipping info

Just logged into my account to check the status of my order and seen orders are estimated to ship within 5 days of purchase according to their upgrade page. Attached a screenshot of the webpage.
[Nexus 6  General] 20degrees:
So maybe they're getting stock 5 days from now.

G3
[Nexus 6  General] androidtoy09:
They dropped the price?!
[Nexus 6  General] nemesys504:
No.. Prices are the same.
[Nexus 6  General] androidtoy09:
My eyes must have fooled me! that screen shot said $531.26 for 32GB and $581.18 for 64GB

:confused:
[Nexus 6  General] Android1126:
I'm assuming that's his upgrade price. Yea, I hiiiighly doubt they dropped the price over $100 bucks while the phone is still sold out worldwide.

Can you confirm why those prices were displayed? Are you still on contract?

I can see the full price underneath but the text is quite small. I still haven't seen it ever say, pay $580 now and the $120 later. That's like 90% up front, what's up with that?

Mine stated $649 and $699.
[Nexus 6  General] androidtoy09:
Ahh i got it. That's his upgrade price. If you look really really close in on the bottom price, it says the full price.

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Nexus 6  General] uzfresh:
If you look lower it has the full price. Those lower prices must be his down payment and or something else.
[Nexus 6  General] epicnoob66:
It has been 5 days since I have placed my order. Y u no ship
[Nexus 6  General] ChronoShot:
The guy who ordered 6 hours after you gets priority. Because reasons.
[Nexus 6  General] rlukas79:
A local Tmobile had in store stock and I just bought it with the prepaid account option, No interest in getting their service.
[Nexus 6  General] Android1126:
I feel that the 32GB is fairly easy to get given a little persistence, it's the 64GB that still remains elusive and near impossible to obtain in ones hand. Many T-Mobile stores have the 32GB in stock. Obviously, they only carry the 32GB in store, and from what I gather, there are probably many more 32GB's manufactured vice the 64GB.

I feel that the impossibility and/or difficulty of obtaining a 32GB N6 no longer applies.

Tell us if you've obtained your 64GB.

Thanks all.
[Nexus 6  General] nemesys504:
Those are my upgrade prices without EIP since I used JUMP to get the Nexus 6. For those who order on 11/19 and are back ordered would probably have to wait 5 business days for new stock. You may have to wait till Tuesday or Wednesday for shipment.
[Nexus 6  General] eruscool:
i almost feel bad for walking into a random Tmobile store and picking up a Nexus 6 in less than 15 minutes. i feel your pain though, i remember compulsively hitting the refresh button when ever i order a phone .
[Nexus 6  General] Ghost_1:
I got my 64Gb without any issues. I know im really lucky too, i ordered it from tmobile on the 19th at 9am-ish with nextday. I was given a ship date of 11/27 and when i woke up the next morning UPS sent me an email saying i was getting it that day. Mind you I have an account with UPS (I order stuff all the time). Thats about it... However I have heard kn other forums and fron other people how impossible it is to get a 64GB. I couldnt tell you anything more than what I know. I think it might hace been a few different things:

1. I got super lucky

2. I've been with Tmobile for over 11 years

3. I'm over due for an upgrade with Tmobile since the Galaxy Note 2 came out.

I don't think anything but pure luck was the real reason.
[Nexus 6  General] Prod1702:
F you man. :) I ordered before you that sucks. Should of had my wife order it for me she is lucky just like you. Grats other wise. I hope my 64 ships soon.
[Nexus 6  General] epicnoob66:
I got an update of sorts, my order history now displays "backorder 11/25/14 at 2am"

Wtf...before it just displayed my time and date of order.
[Nexus 6  General] acafaca333:
Same here. Same time.
[Nexus 6  General] aiiee:
Well was promised 11/24 shipment when I placed my order so of course it was a lie. No shipment, no idea when they might make a shipment. Canceled the whole order. My Nexus 5 is looking better and better, and cheaper.
[Nexus 6  General] ChronoShot:
Same. Used to say "Pending Shipping 11/19/2014 at 12:14:38 AM" (although Order Status was backordered)

Now it says "Backorder 11/25/2014 at 02:00:37 AM" and Order Status is the same.
[Nexus 6  General] Android1126:
Yea, I hear you man. I also received my 64GB and also ordered around 9AM EST. Additionally, I've also been with T-Mobile for about 11 years. Maybe they were giving priority to their long term customers?
[Nexus 6  General] Ochosi:
Mine changed as well last night from pending shipping to backorder
[Nexus 6  General] Ghost_1:
Lol, honestly though... I wasn't part of the Nexus 4 Order but this is so eff'd up. I might have my Nexus 6 but I feel bad for everyone else who ordered and didn't get it. I got my Nexus 5 easily on release day with no issues. This Nexus 6 order was poop... With all the analytical power that Google has they should have done the math and then pushed the date back.

As excited as I am to have the Nexus 6, if you have a 5 and upgraded to Lollipop the only things you are missing are:

Huge screen

Huge Battery life improvement (between devices)

My Nexus 5 is still just as fast though as the Nexus 6, I blame the encryption (Nexus 5 = Off, Nexus 6 = On)

---------- Post added at 10:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:23 AM ----------

That might be the key, from what I read in earlier posts it seems that anyone who's been with T-Mobile for a while has gotten theirs ahead of anyone new, for the 64GB at least.
[Nexus 6  General] enculturation:
My account's been active for longer than that, and I'm still waiting on mine. I was originally with Voicestream. I didn't order until around 6:30pm MST on the 19th though...
[Nexus 6  General] Android1126:
Agreed on both points. I have the Nexus 5 running Lollipop and I have my Nexus 6. Again, the only differences are screen size and battery life aside from the Ambient DIsplay and other minor differences. Like I was saying in a previous post, most of us don't buy the latest and greatest because we NEED IT, it's simply nice to have. Especially the 64GB variant ;)

Yea, it appears they have been giving priority to their "Platinum" customers. Haha.
[Nexus 6  General] id10terrordfw:
For those of us 64's on backorder, a rep said that the next shipment will get to the distributors on the 5th. Take that with a grain of salt, of course.
[Nexus 6  General] Alix8821:
My order history also changed dates. From 11/19 to 11/25 (today).

Ordered at 330AM EST on 11/19. 64gb, JUMP, overnight, fairly new customer (switched from VZW in August).

I suggest all of who's dates got changed, keep the updates coming. Because it is either good or bad. Didnt "just happen".... No MyUPS updates. Back account not charged..... Ugh. Wtf
[Nexus 6  General] id10terrordfw:
Was your order status, or anyone else's, ever "Being Processed" while it was in "Pending Shipping?"
[Nexus 6  General] Alix8821:
YUPP.

Being processed

Backorder

Pending shipping
[Nexus 6  General] id10terrordfw:
Sounds like me, then. Well here's to hoping the 5th (or sooner) is the correct date!
[Nexus 6  General] mbomberz1:
Existing Customer - Ordered my 64GB at 7:55am PST on 11/19

Order History updated to - BackOrder 11/25/2014 at 02:00:45 AM

Anyone been able to talk to chat support about this new order history update?
[Nexus 6  General] Alix8821:
No. Friday is the last day I'll accept before I bug out. This entire process is ****ed up. They're clueless.

Yes, 1st world problems, but still. This is ridiculous.

I already got my overnight shipping fee ($25) refunded. So I don't know what else my complaining can actually accomplish. But I'd still call & yell.

WISH I didn't legit need 64gb. But I've had Samsungs & now LG G3. 32gb phones + my 64gb SD card. So I'm spoiled. NEVER worried about memory. Ugh
[Nexus 6  General] AndrasLOHF:
This is me too. I'm pretty much only upgrading to the Nexus 6 for the extra memory and wanting to stay pure Android. I went from a Evo LTE with a 64gb sd card and 16gb internal memory down to 32 gb Nexus 5. I like to keep ALL my music on my phone and not rely on streaming services. I do use All Access Music but at the rate I download full albums from it I cannot even keep a backup of the ROM I'm running or a nandroid on my phone.
[Nexus 6  General] mbomberz1:
Yeah i feel you, really wish google would get back on board with the whole SD card thing. Removable battery would be nice to bring back as well.. ah the nexus one. Wish my power button still worked.
[Nexus 6  General] Bataga:
I'm sick of people at T-Mobile not knowing what's going on. I understand being backordered and all but someone somewhere knows where the phones are and when they'll be stocked. My local T-Mobile had and still has several of the 32gb.

Jump customer

64gb

My order was on 7/19 3:38am est. And was changed to 7/25 2:00:38
[Nexus 6  General] Ghost_1:
I wonder if it had to do with the coinciding of when you ordered and how long you have been with Tmobile.

Agreed on the "NEED IT" part. lol Definitely helps me on the job as now I can test the newest hardware against the Enterprise!
[Nexus 6  General] ChronoShot:
That's way more than the "Ships in 5 days" the site said yesterday.
[Nexus 6  General] verusevo:
For those confused why some"long time customers" are receiving their phones and others are not. I'm pretty sure those LTC ordered their phones using regular upgrades or paid for the phone outright and aren't jump customers.

A couple of things remain pretty consistent on this forum.

-32gb phones seem to be shipping just fine for 99% of people.

-anyone with a 64gb in hand is not a jump customer or if they are didn't use their jump upgrade(as far as I've seen)

I ordered my phone at 3 22am easten time on the 19th. Unfortunately I used the regular upgrade instead of my jump grade . So on Friday the 21st I ordered a second 64gb in store using my jump-grade. My first regular upgrade phone was delivered yesterday(monday) but i had to refuse it so i wouldn't have a second eip on my account. My jump phone still remains back ordered. So obviously jump grade customers are second class citizens right now.
[Nexus 6  General] id10terrordfw:
Well the site never said 5 earth days...
[Nexus 6  General] zachsx:
I literally just got off the phone with customer service, since my order was put on backorder last night after I was told it would be shipped. He told me 2-4 weeks. I don't know how true that is. It seems they like to make up information just to give you an answer. Also told me to call my local store and see if I can buy it from them. :eek:
[Nexus 6  General] NewMan4Life2010:
I just cancel my 64GB Blue order on 11/19 at 10:14PM Central Time. All because I just brought one off someone you got two from google for $740 64GB Blue. As soon I brought the phone off of him at 10:51 am T-Mobile change my card for my order. I called them they told me it will be cancel right away. Maybe it will go to someone on the forum.

Edit: I will have my phone on Friday. ;):good::laugh:
[Nexus 6  General] Lucke:
screw all this... just called and cancelled my 64gb due to the backorder and ZERO credible information about it and ordered a 32gb due to it being able to get shipped out today. should be getting it tomorrow (or worst case Fri due to Thanksgiving).
[Nexus 6  General] NewMan4Life2010:
Before I cancelled my order I was told every time I called I would receive it 10 to 15 after I place my order.
[Nexus 6  General] JimmyHACK:
Good luck with that. I did the same thing last week and still hasn't shipped out. Switched to backorder as well although still says "pending shipping"

Edit; they just hit my credit card again after the initial one..... looks like it may actually go today so good luck :)
[Nexus 6  General] Lucke:
i called in and asked before i did that, to make sure that they are showing the 32gb in stock and ready to ship. the rep said yes after going partially through the order, so i gave my CC info. i made sure it was good to go before pulling the trigger (upgrade site showed ready to ship for the 32gb and backordered for the 64gb too)
[Nexus 6  General] zachsx:
Well I'm praying and hoping. Good luck to everyone! hahaha this is getting ridiculous :p
[Nexus 6  General] Ochosi:
I called T-Mo just now and they said the 32gb was in stock right now and the 64 has not ETA. Canceled my 64 gb order and got a 32 gb with next day. Ill keep you updated on if or when I get information on it shipping.
[Nexus 6  General] phekno:
Any of you guys canceling your orders and re-ordering, are you JUMP customers? My 64GB still shows as backordered (it's a JUMP, placed on 11/19 at 6AM PST).
[Nexus 6  General] Lucke:
no JUMP here.
[Nexus 6  General] 20degrees:
They don't care if you're a long term customer. I've been with them 12 years and mine is still on backorder.

G3
[Nexus 6  General] caitsith810:
I'm pretty close to cancelling my order since the store nearby me has the 32GB in stock...how long does it take for them to completely cancel the order?
[Nexus 6  General] Jfree3000:
**** this, they have until Friday and I'm canceling. This is one big cluster **** and a big middle finger to customers. They need to apologize for this and I'm assuming changing that back ordered date is an attempt to make them look less incompetent.
[Nexus 6  General] Lucke:
i was told ~24 hours to fully cancel in their system
[Nexus 6  General] mahst68:
Just Got Charged For Mine.

Ordered my 32GB Blue in store on Friday afternoon... sold out, backordered online after the whole order process. Was just officially charged today for it, I have a Paypal Debit and I am alerted when charges are placed. From my experience, this typically means it is shipping. No tracking yet via My Choice UPS yet. Still says "processing but not yet available" on call up check. Going to try at the store again today to see if they got stock in, otherwise I am hoping it will ship overnight tonight.... check your credit charges to see if you had anything post today, could mean they got more fullfillment stock in.:good:
[Nexus 6  General] V1ViD:
I also got charged today. Which means we should either be receiving it tomorrow or Friday.
[Nexus 6  General] Jfree3000:
I called cs and got the first honest answer about this bs. He told me he had no idea when they would receive more units and there was nothing listed about expected shipments from the manufacturer. This 64gb lottery shipping system is crazy, I really do believe they are throwing darts at a board with orders attached to it. At least the rep didn't bs me this go around.
[Nexus 6  General] mahst68:
don't know whether it would be worth going to the store... probably will call them to see if they have any... can always return to sender if they do
[Nexus 6  General] id10terrordfw:
This I believe more than that 12-5 date. I really think it is manufacturing constraint, Moto just can't or won't build enough devices to go around. I do think it isn't good business to say "Ships within 5 days" when obviously this isn't the case. List it as no ETA. Be honest.
[Nexus 6  General] 20degrees:
Why don't you guys tweet John Leger's twitter account? If enough people do, he'll respond.

G3
[Nexus 6  General] Jfree3000:
Honestly he can't do anything about it but give a half assed e-apology. Motorola is the main culprit, t-mobile is 2nd for blame due to this 1 week delay and not being able to pre-order.
[Nexus 6  General] 20degrees:
But maybe it will bring out the issue of the shipment shaft we're getting.
[Nexus 6  General] TheAmazingDave:
Sorry to hear of the trouble. Not to add fuel to the fire, but I placed my order for a 32 GB ~8:30 AM PST on the 19th as a new T-Mo customer, and it shipped the same day. Pretty wonky that most of you seem to still be waiting.

:confused:
[Nexus 6  General] JimmyHACK:
Ya, I am pretty sure order tickets are just dumped into a huge hat and they randomly pulls tickets to ship.
[Nexus 6  General] zachsx:
I actually ordered mine yesterday. Was told it would ship THAT day I paid for the overnight. Then late last night it was stuck into backorder, I was told no eta, probably 2-4 weeks. wtf :eek:
[Nexus 6  General] V1ViD:
If it makes you guys feel better, the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus orders were literally handled the same way. Pretty sure T-Mobile just handles the most popular phones in a lottery fashion.
[Nexus 6  General] LLStarks:
Is there any way to know which models will ship quickly and which are backordered?
[Nexus 6  General] phekno:
I thought I read somewhere that JUMP orders were prioritized for the iPhone 6/6+ release. Either way, I don't understand why you would use a lottery for this sort of thing. Also, didn't they say this was supposed to be "first come, first served"? Obviously that's not the case.
[Nexus 6  General] zachsx:
No, if there was I'd take either. But they have no ETA on either. haha
[Nexus 6  General] V1ViD:
They did say that, but that was not even remotely that case. They just say things to attempt to "calm" people but instead it just backfires.
[Nexus 6  General] id10terrordfw:
I actually believe that they don't think customers who order talk on the internet in large numbers, therefore figuring out that it isn't the case.
[Nexus 6  General] kin12:
:(

i placed my order yesterday (64gb)... but was a pain! tried online, order did not go though, then when i called they told me will ship by next week however order did not go though, then i stopped by the local store finally order when through but now no ETA :( to make it worse i am stuck using my, very old, Nexus One as i lost my Nexus 5 :crying:

Hope it ships soon as i need usable phone

Has anyone seen anything from Google, there is not a word on the play store and this is supposed to be a Google phone???
[Nexus 6  General] Prod1702:
Just wanted to give anyone who did a Jump upgrade for a 64gb one a update. As most people have seen I am a T-MO RSA. I did a jump upgrade on the 19th at 545am pst and am still backordered. I just talked to my retail customer care support (This is the customer care in-store reps deal with) to try and cancel my jump upgrade and order a 32gb one. Most of the time to cancel a jump upgrade it takes 24 to 72 hours. However with all the problems T-Mo has been having with the Iphone 6 backorder and jump upgrades, T-Mobile has now made it so that if you do a jump upgrade on a phone and it goes backordered, you can not cancel your jump upgrade. You have to wait until you get your phone then return it to cancel the order. So if you ordered a 64gb Nexus 6 on jump you are stuck waiting for the 64gb. You can not cancel the order and try to get a 32gb one and still do a jump trade in. So i guess I am stuck waiting for a 64gb one. I am really hoping it ships soon. This is getting out of hand. The 32gb one was backordered for a day and went back in stock. Why the F did the 64gb not go back in stock. :(
[Nexus 6  General] phekno:
What's a T-Mo RSA (I know what T-Mo is...)?

Anyway, I did the same thing, and this sucks. If it's any consolation, when I called T-Mo customer care yesterday to have some smoke blown up my ass, they told me that they'd ship the 26th.
[Nexus 6  General] Logix:
he means hes a sales rep rsa = retail sales associate
[Nexus 6  General] Android1126:
Post storage size config please!

Guys, post the configuration you are ordering. Ordering a 32GB vs. a 64GB is a completely different waiting game.

I said this already, but the 32GB is NOT impossible to get with a little determination and/or dedication. I know that I could pick up a 32GB from just about any T-Mobile store right now, even if I were to order it via T-Mo, it would ship out in 3-5 days.

Most of the orders via Google Play that have shipped and been received are the 32GB. Few people have yet to receive or successfully order the 64GB configuration. Be it Motorola.com, the Play Store, or through T-Mobile, the 64GB is next to impossible to obtain in one's hand.

It's the 64GB that remains elusive., so tell us what you have ordered.

Saying, 'I ordered one and it's backordered' doesn't allow people to gauge the availibiity and/or demand of what's being shipped, what's being back ordered, and what's beign processed.

Again,. state what you ordered so we can accurately gauge what is shipping.

I received my 64GB via T-Mobile customer care yesterday (Midnight Blue of course).

Thanks, and good luck!
