UPS delivered my 128 MB Silver XL an hour ago.

From processing status to delivered in under 24 hours plus almost a whole month earlier than the estimated delivery date given to me when I placed my pre-order.

I hope everyone who is still waiting for theirs sees the same service that I have.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DespairFactor:
I am using a 32GB black atm, but my silver 128gb just arrived, so back goes the 32gb:)
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Reechings:
Yours was a direct from Google order right?

I don't know if he tweaked it somehow but I watched a Pixel XL review on YouTube from Flossy Carter and it looked more black than stock. Here's a pic:

I hope the 128gb models will come back in stock soon... i'm usually late with these kind of things :\
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] lexcyn:
Looks the same as what I had on my 5X...
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] chef_christoph:
Yes, Play Store pre-order October 4 around 2:15pm PDT. I also paid for expedited shipping.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] brangalm:
It's more of a dark grey.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] lexcyn:
Yeah it's dark grey, not black. I compared it to my 5X and it is the same (it was running 7.0 and also 7.1.1).

What cases and tempered glass screen protectors are you getting? Seems like a lot of the options take long to ship to Canada.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] IIIPowerIII:
Here I bought some rugged armor case from Spigen. It took a day to deliver from Amazon and it's a great case.

I'm returning my Google clear case, that thing suck.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] 0mega1:
I like to call it "Pretty Grey"

For real google?

I mean I love it, but it's not black.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Reechings:
Man watching the shipping thread, I'm worried that it's going to be a while to see my phone. The telus order does say 4-6 weeks but I'm still hoping that was an overestimation.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] gabtoof:
Arrived today, ahead of the 31st estimation (from Ontario to Edmonton). Standard shipping.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] acheney1990:
I bought the same case and its pretty good especially for the price.

Not really seeing it, which ones are you talking about?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Zer0_:
It's not really much, but theres more options.

For example, I've been looking for a screen protector, but there wasnt any on amazon last week.

Now they have a few options to choose from. Probably not as good as the US Amazon, but whatever. lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spiralspirit:
dropped into a telus corporate store today and picked up a black xl 32gb. I don't use much storage space.

I like the device so far - nice upgrade from the HTC one m8.

I really wish google made a dark theme for the phone. Night mode is fine, but I want a dark theme.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] iamhacked:
Okay, then I guess you weren't checking as often. I thought there were suddenly more choices on the day you posted [emoji28]

Yeah my love of dark themes always will send me to custom ROMs. There is a chance that Substratum will work on a rooted stock ROM though.

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Reechings:
Not yet
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] CayenneGTS:
Just got an email from google that the silver XL's are available. I had originally placed an order with Fido for a black 128 GB black one, but they don't have it in stock. So I cancelled my Fido order and ordered the silver XL 128 GB from google directly. Estimated delivery is November 7 to 14th. For those that ordered theirs on the google store, what has been your delivery like - were the estimated delivery dates close to what you got in your purchase confirmation?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] aznblade:
I live in Toronto so it took roughly 3 days (same day ordered/processing, the next day it got shipped, the day after that I got it in my hands) and it was shipped from Mississauga if I recall. I as well just ordered the 128GB to replace the 32GB I got (Yay for Google's 15 day return policy).
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] iamhacked:
Yep, unlike in the US, Google Store Canada seems to be shipping out immediately.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] CayenneGTS:
Great to hear! Thanks.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] CayenneGTS:
I can't believe how fast I'm getting mine (from the Canadian Google store).

1. I got an email yesterday AM that the silver XL 128 GB was in stock.

2. I placed my order around 10:AM ET with an ETA for Nov. 7 to Nov. 11

3. I then got an email about 6 hours later that it was shipped!

4. Just checked tracking on CanadaPost.ca and its scheduled for delivery this afternoon!!!

Just a little over 24 hours .............. I love it!!!!!

Anyone gotten substratum to work on their Canadian pixels? Its not working for me, I don't know if it has to do with us still being on the L firmware and at least I haven't gotten the P update. On a second note has anyone tried pushing the update over adb?

Edit: nevermind, I pushed the update and now substratum works!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Reechings:
Nice work! So regular install with root doesn't work yet I guess? Any screenshots of your quick settings etc
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Cycloneon:
Anyone know where it is in stock? I believe Fido says to allow 4-8 weeks for delivery. Other companies don't even say if it's in stock or not.

I just bought it from Bell but they said they will ship once they receive inventory from google but they that AFTER they process me order -__-
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Reechings:
Last time I checked Telus was still showing 4-6 weeks for delivery too. Looking at the main shipping thread it looks like phones are starting to ship my more and more from Google so hopefully some of the carriers up here get some stock soon.

Bell Bootloader Unlockable

So I assumed the bootlocker on my Bell bought XL would not be unlockable in the way Google bought phones are and figured I'd have to use the Verizon version method. However I tried the traditional way and got the option on my phone to select yes or no to unlock. I didn't do it becauase I was only going to do it figuring I had to before the November update or risk losing the chance. Now I'm thinking it's just like regular Google bought versions and easily unlockable by "fastboot oem unlock" command. Does that mean the Bell version is unlocable like the Google version?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Deus_eps_machina:
Can someone with a Rogers device confirm that the bootloader is unlockable?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] acheney1990:
All I can confirm is my Bell one is.

Wow no store in my area had the daydream... I went to BB, Bell, Rogers, Telus.. nothing at all.

I had to order it from Bell directly :( now the waiting game...
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] efrant:
I had to go to five different stores this morning here in Montreal (two Telus, two Bell and one Rogers) before I finally managed to get the last one on the shelf at the fifth store. Not a great launch if you ask me.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] IIIPowerIII:
I went to 2 different shopping center trying to find one. So it was 2 Bell, 2 Rogers, 2 Telus and 1 BB.

At least 1 shop on 2 didn't even know what I was speaking about...

The only place where I saw one was a Telus store but it wasn't for sale it was their demo and they didn't receive their orders.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Reechings:
How about stock of the the actual phones? I'm still waiting for my 128GB Black XL from Telus and it still shows 4-6 weeks for delivery if you go to the website to order it. The excitement is turning to annoyance.

Yeah same here from Telus , just waiting for L&R to send me one. Long story but been waiting for a new phone since note 7 release haha. .... some reason they don't just order it for me they call me weekly to tell me to wait another week.

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] AstroDigital:
You know it is not cheaper buying it from a store.

Ordered mine from Google and I had it in 2 days.

Bad purchase

1) Use it for 15 minutes the phone overheats

2) It is only useful when you actually carry in around everywhere and who is going to do that ? It is at home now.... I am at work

Think this is why "Americans" get it for free, Google knows it is going to be a novelty and never take off.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] IIIPowerIII:
I had it in my hand before I could even order it from Canadian play store... Or I would've ordered it from Google.

So far I've used it for about 4 hours, it's great. Hunter gate is nice with that.

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] IIIPowerIII:
I've used it for Play Movie, it's cool. I can see myself watching Netflix once it will be supported.

They only need to fix the heat issues so we can watch a full movie without stopping and it will be perfect.

I can't believe they didn't catch that issue before release.

It seems the Pixel Silver is back in stock so I hope the XL variants come back in stock as well
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
Make sure the black border on the screen is even. My silver Pixel Xl screen had a slightly thicker (black) border on the left and top. I went back to the store to exchange it and the rep opened another box and the other phone had the same defect. I decided to go with the very black Pixel because I figured I won't see the defect if it's there. So if you're going with the silver variant make sure the screen is aligned properly. [emoji4]
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] aznblade:
the black ones has it. you have to look really hard.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mrnovanova:
I figured it might but since I don't see it. It doesn't bother me. For that price the phone has to be perfect. Any defect is un acceptable.

[General Topics] Luccas:
Hi, please tell me if there is a way to make the message boxes and windows (of course some of them are outside the screen area) to force to display in screen area, not to have a part of window outside screen.

The display driver is ddi.dll.

Thanks for your help.
[General Topics] levenum:
Unless its your windows (from your own app) no.

ddi.dll is the generic name for WM / CE display driver so it tells us nothing of the device.

If you describe your problem in more details, like the exact device, the apps that do not display properly etc. perhaps someone will be able to help.
[General Topics] Luccas:
Ok, the device is a pna running win core 5.0. Apps. that are outside are using gdi (apps which use gx are displayed normally thanks to gapi 4.0), but the others designed for 230x320 are outside (the device has display 320x240).
[General Topics] levenum:
Ok, I think I understand what you are trying to do - you "opened" a PND and are trying to run PPC apps on it right?

Unfortunately, currently there is no way to help apps that can not adjust to screen resolution by themselves.

PNDs are intentionally limited in features and screen rotation option was removed from the driver.

Unless a program was written to take in to account the screen size (many PPC programs were not) there is no way to force it to the right resolution.

And even if it could be done (there is a theoretical way) it will always be buggy and unstable.
[LG G Watch R] dettofatto:
After the last Update [M1D63M], my Lg watch was very slow, and also the screen in "ambient mode" was very dark under the sun (from day 0). So I've bought the Huawei Watch, but also was very dark under the sun!

So I've created for me, and also for you, a .zip file with some useful tools.

I've only merged other app/TWRP/root, without doing anything more.

If you have your Watch rooted start from 7

So...

(enable usb debugging on your watch!!))

1) Install WinDroid toolkit on your Pc

2) Unlock your Lg

With Windroid toolkit:

3) Push supersu into lg sdcard (in my zip)

4) Install the recovery (in my zip)

5) Reboot into recovery and install supersu that you have pushed in /sdcard/.

6) Reboot System

7) install Busybox on LG, open it and download

8) Install other app that you find under folder App

- Kernel Audiutor is for overclock/enable other cores

- Advanced settings is for increase your brightness in ambient mode

Budget phone or not, I will be getting XL for sure, I am hoping the hardware doesn't vary too much or I will need both somehow.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] bennyboy_84:
I have a 6P and will likely be going with the Pixel (non XL) upon release. I caved in and got the 6P last year even though I hate phablets, and although it's an amazing phone, I still find it too big to this day. 5-5.2" is my sweet spot. Will buy from play store directly like 6P and N5 before, easier this way especially for warranty imho, unless Videotron in Quebec (likely) or Fido/Virgin/Koodo (unlikely) have it at launch as they all have decent 6GB/60$ BYOP plans ; not Bell/Rogers/Telus.

I'll sell my 6P (pretty sure I can get 300$ for the 32GB still under warranty) so that should offset the, I assume, 750$ish price range for the smaller Pixel. The only major turn off for me is front facing speaker ; I will really, really miss those, especially if the bezels are as thick as the leaked renders/pictures (I'M SURE THERE IS ROOM GOOGLE, WHY? :'( )

And the phone better be f'ing amazing at that price (or really nice at a more decent 600$ish price).*
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] dcristi:
If the price starts at 650USD which in Canada means 845CAD$ + tax = 975CAD$ I'm out.

I pre ordered thru a contract with Telus. $200 up front on a 2 year contract. Looking forward to shipment.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] peachpuff:
How much is your monthly plan?
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] nednednerb:
Only $12 more than previous contract for Nexus 5 two years ago, which completed by chance in September.

Cell and data bills in Canada are crazy, though. I support openmedia.ca 's efforts.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] peachpuff:
Total though, $80? I would imagine half of that would go to pay the phone off.

[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] bertiespeed:
Just ordered my Pixel. Added a new line to my account (Telus) and the phone was 0$ .. Already have 6gb shared data.. so a new plan is 84$ a month taxes included. So it cost me 17$ (sim cost) to order this phone. And comes with 100$ Google play credit!
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] thomasswan5547:
Not only is it too much, it's just all around not worth it for the price compared to similar offerings.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] peachpuff:
Gah ya that's a bit much, i would almost expect the phone to be completely free at those prices.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] nednednerb:
My monthly bill for the last 2 years was only $12 less then this. I am glad it is not free if the change in bill would be lots higher and it would cost me lots more in long run.

$12 x 24 months + $200 = $488 Pixel at end of contract. Compared to $1033 as someone saw, it is a good deal for me.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] GeekMcLeod:
Just preordered it from bell for 399 on a 2 year contract. Can't wait for it to come. I think this phone will definitely be worth it.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] efrant:
I pre-ordered 2 black 128GB's yesterday from Rogers for $329 each. The demand for the phone doesn't appear to be that high though judging from my position in the line-up -- I'm 47 in the line-up, and that's after placing my order one week after the device was announced...

With Rogers, if you pre-order, you get 2GB of data extra to add to your plan for 12 months, a free Chromecast and a $50 Play Store credit. And that's per device. Not bad.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] Matridom:
I ended up buying mine outright. Telus does not have the 128GB version available and my contract is grandfathered/non-renewable ($70 for unlimited nationwide + 6GB) so moving to a current plan brings the cost up way to much. Even the rep at loyalty told me i would be better off just buying it. I did get a free nano SIM card for the call in though.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] Zer0_:
Ended up pre-ordering a black 32gb pixel phone from the Google Store.

Can't wait!

I ended up going for the lower storage because of unlimited online picture storage, and I use spotify for music. Plus since i got 15 gb of data through rogers, I don't mind streaming all of that.
[Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion] GeekMcLeod:
That's a pretty sweet deal. I only get a $100 play store credit I think. My phone bill is cheap($85 for 10gb) to everyone I know($100+ for < 6gb) though so I don't complain.
