Ordered 12/16

Card replaced due to hacking right after Christmas.

Didn't realize it, but card couldn't be charged. No phone call or attempt to communicate was made from Verizon.

Checked the order status to see cancelled.

I have had 4 calls with them, they will do nothing. My new ship date is 3/10, of course they can always cancel that one too.

For the love of all things why can't Fedex follow instructions! I'm so FED UP with them and their crap service. Guess I have to make another hour round trip to MAYBE get my phone. This phone better be worth all this trouble.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] RLPSZ:
Haha it seems that at every point (production by Google, sale by Verizon, and shipping by Fedex) it's problematic. I hope it's worth it too. Good luck!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
I ordered two 128s (QB & VS) on 12/17. I got emails showing ship dates of 2/13 and 2/15, respectively, but both phones still show 2/17 on MyVZW online. No update yet. I'm hopeful to hear that it's shipped soon too. It appears that people who ordered on 12/16 are receiving theirs...
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] thacounty:
[MENTION=7968536]RLPSZ[/MENTION] and [MENTION=7909087]JU57US[/MENTION] let me know when you get a shipping confirmation please.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] RLPSZ:
Will do! I just checked with a Verizon rep but they said it's still 2/17. I still think there's a chance it will ship earlier since Verizon clearly has a tendency to get dates wrong
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] thacounty:
I have been promised that I'm on the next shipment, but I'm not holding my breath. Once you all start getting tracking numbers I'll know for sure.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] djRamage:
Received! And on NDE63P! Tracker updated.

I am graduating from this thread and on to some bootloader unlocking... Good luck all!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Finally have mine and go tit activated! Had to drive back out to Fedex. Build is NDE63P. I will update my info on spreadsheet.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Voxilli:
Got mine with NDE63P. Unlocked bootloader with dePixel8, flashed 7.1.1, installed TWRP, SuperSU and profit. Feels good man.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Could someone point me in the right direction to start the root process. Having been with Verizon for so long I have no clue where to start.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Ordered on 12/17. This morning I checked the Verizon app on my phone, and then just verified by checking MyVZW online... my pre-orders have been changed to "orders" and I no longer have notifications regarding "pre-orders". No email yet, but I think that means both my QB and VS 128XL's could be shipping today.

---------- Post added at 10:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 AM ----------

You're going to want TWRP RC1 (check the thread in the ROM subforum) and SuperSU 2.79 (check the thread in the ROM subforum). You may even want a custom kernel to hide the bootloader unlock (the ones I've been reading up on are Stock+Safetynet Patch, ElementalX and Franco Kernel). And if you want to go the route of hiding root from Safetynet, look into the thread here in the News/Guides forum about patching the lib files to get su_hide to work.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DroidForLife33:
My order has changed as well from pre-order to order. 12/17/16 No email yet tho so maybe it's going to ship this week and will get them by next week.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] thacounty:
Card charged?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
My State is one that VZW doesn't require taxes up front, so there's nothing to charge my card. But I would think I would get an email notification of shipment, because I recently got a Daydream View and got email notifications when that shipped.

Heck, if it ships today, I should have it by Friday. I'm still hoping that I get it before the weekend!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Kisakuku:
SuperSU 2.79 is the latest stable version and will result in issues when flashed with TWRP 3.0.2-0 RC1 without following additional steps. Use the latest beta SuperSU 2.79 SR3 instead.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Unless you want to have any shot at using Rootswitch and su_hide, in which case you can't use 2.79 SR*. Besides, the only thing you need to do to get 2.79 stable working is exactly what Dees_Troy posted in the second post of the TWRP thread:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] rfranken:
Verizon just called and was going to give me my 8th shipping date. Then realized I had already received my phone yesterday. I mean you can't make this stuff up?!!?

The good news is they are sending me a free day dream for having to wait so long.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Brokestat:
Got my phone yesterday. Came with 7.1 installed. Already have it dePixeled.

Original order date of 12/12/16

Pixel XL 128 VS
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] whitak3r:
I ordered December 21st I believe... I REALLY hope I get a 7.1 version... expected ship date isn't until Feb 15th though....
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] alobear:
got my phone Jan 29th, ordered Jan 16th.. QB 32 GB they told me it would get here by 02/21. I didn't read the thread so popped in my sim and and it updated it self... sad day.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] RLPSZ:
Just noticed the pre-oder number has been changed to order number on My Verizon! Have not received an email or been charged yet, though. How long did it take to get charged and notified once the order status changed?

VB 128GB XL ordered 12/18, estimated shipping 2/17
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Mine did that yesterday (ordered 12/17). Still no email, and no change. My estimated shipping date is gone off the MyVZW site, too. If I don't get an email by this afternoon, I'm going to call in and find out what's going on. I am hopeful they're shipped yesterday and I will get both phones Friday.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hokiealumnus:
Mine still says 2/17 (ordered 12/20), but I just got a call out of the blue from big red offering to send a daydream view free of charge, thanking me graciously for my patience. Sounds good to me!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MeetFace:
Just got the same phone call.

I'm pretty happy with this overall experience, sure, getting my phone late was a let down...but got my upgrade fee waived AND a free Day Dream...not bad VZ, not bad at all.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
I called Verizon this afternoon and was told by the rep that her system still shows a ship date of 2/17 (despite the other 3 emails I got last week). She has no idea why the pre-order number changed to an order number, but did say that when they get new devices in they have some things they have to do to them to get them ready to ship, and that might mean that my phones are in the process of getting ready to ship. However, the ship date will not change on her system until it is shipped. They may be getting multiple orders ready to ship, and processing those orders, but nothing will be updated until it actually ships and a tracking number is emailed.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
I changed my settings to NOT install or check for updates. Mine still did and now I am stuck with just a plain Pixel XL. Not what I wanted but being on Verizon I am used to this. So if you even think you might want to do anything to your device i suggest doing it quickly.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
You aren't the only one, I have read that scenario several times. My wife is instructed to not even open the box until I get home with my laptop to run dePixel8, lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
In 7.1.1 these is not an option to ignore updates? I looked and could not find it.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hovercraftdriver:
Ordered mine 12/19....Ship date on site was moved to 2/17 from 1/6....Now no ship date and says order is being processed...Fingers crossed
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mademan420:
The exact timing on all dates here, fingers crossed:fingers-crossed:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
So I got a text message early this morning that my order is being processed and I'll get another text when it ships. ... This is basically the same information I already knew since Wednesday, but it appears that it's at least another step in the process toward shipment to check off. Things "appear" to be progressing. Maybe my phone will get here before 2/17 or maybe I'll just keep getting these incremental "processing" messages all the way up to 2/17 anyway, lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Just got an email with tracking on my Quite Black phone. Silver still up in the air.

Edit: Black phone should be here Monday, 2/6. Silver, no word yet.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DroidForLife33:
That's good news. I'm hoping I get the same email on mine as well.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bernsy:
Ordered QB 128 on 12/17 with original ship date of 1/20. On 1/21 ship date changed to 2/17 on the web page. Got an email on 1/22 saying ship date was 2/14. Got another email 1/23 saying 2/13. Got a text 1/28 saying my order was received and I would get a tracking number soon. I got an email later that day with my tracking number. Got my phone on the 1st. About 10 minutes ago Verizon called me, thanking me for the order and offered me a free Daydream VR for the inconvenience.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hokiealumnus:
Congrats bernsy!

My pre-order number (VS, 128GB) has changed to an order number now (ordered 12/20). Here's hoping that means something good, because my G3 just bit the dust hard.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
I'm getting anxious (more than I already have been). I ordered my VS 128GB XL on 12/24 and some of these updates are getting close to that date. Only issue I see so far is that most of the people updating that their phones are being sent are the QB versions and not VS. :( Hopefully I'll see something within the next week.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
I ordered one of each on 12/17. Both pre-order numbers changed to order numbers last Wednesday, but then on Friday I got a notification that my black phone shipped on Friday. No word on the Silver yet.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] stm8:
It's been pretty quiet around here lately.

I ordered my QB XL 128 on 12/19. My estimated shipping dates have gone from 1/20, to 2/17, to 2/14, to 2/13.

Last Thursday my pre-order number changed to an order number, and the estimated shipping date is gone. It just says "Processing..."

I know there is a bunch of us in the same boat. I get the feeling that Verizon is waiting for another shipment from Google/HTC. Hopefully we won't have to wait too long.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Is the tracking sheet still up? I ordered a replacement since I goofed and let mine update to 7.1.1. but if people start getting phones with 7.1.1. pre-installed I'll cancel mine. Estimated ship date is 3/21/17.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mademan420:
Yeah [MENTION=5851240]aknotts415[/MENTION] can you add the link to the spreadsheet to the OP? TIA!

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] thacounty:
Looks like mine won't be shipping in the front of the line like I was promised. Something about it being a manual form that has to be processed, and since we are in week 2, I'm not very hopeful. The good news is, I found a 32gb on FB like new for $400 to hold me over until my 128 comes in! All that being said, WHAT FIRMWARE IS ON YOURS?!! Hahaha
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
I don't have it yet. Either it's at home, or the UPS guy just scanned it and is getting ready to walk in my office door in the next few minutes.

Edit: Despite the address change, it's at home. Good thing my wife was home sick today? Anyway, I'll check it out here in a little while when I get off work.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DroidForLife33:
I haven't heard anything about mine yet. It's 128 QB that I ordered on 12/17. Hope to hear something soon.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] stm8:
Looking at the spreadsheet here, and the one on reddit, it looks like you are the only user reporting that you received a Pixel XL 128 from Verizon since 1/31. They had been releasing them in dribs and drabs for a while, but it's been dry for a week.

Congrats! I hope you enjoy it, and don't have to wait too much longer for your Very Silver model.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Thanks! I'm home, it's on NDE63P and I'm happy! I haven't gotten it out of the box yet and won't be able to until after my kids go to bed (sick wife). But the thing is getting dePixel8'd tonight lol.

I can't update the spreadsheet until I get on my laptop (doesn't work for me to edit on mobile), but I'll do it tonight.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Annnndddd... unlocked! Thanks to this wonderful community, jcase and beaups.

Let's hope the same holds true for the Very Silver version due next week...
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
My pre-order has changed to an order number and the expected ship date is no longer showing on MyVerizon. I have not been charged the sales tax yet but hopefully I will see that soon as well. Crossing fingers! :)

VS 128GB XL ordered on 12/24 with a previously expected ship date of 2/17/2017
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] beavis9k:
My order (QB 128GB on 12/23) changed to processing today and the 2/17 estimate disappeared. I hope that's a good sign.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] rod_ol_fo:
I ordered my QB 128 on 12/23 too but no update on the pre-order fingers crossed it changes soon too
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DroidForLife33:
I just received a text from Verizon saying my phone is getting ready to ship. Checked my credit card and they charged me for the tax. Just waiting for the next text message with the tracking number. QB 128 12/17/16

I just received a tracking number but the strange thing is it's a UPS tracking number not FedEx. Well I'm hoping for a Friday delivery now.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] altwu:
128GB QB Pixel XL ordered on 12/20 in store.

original shipping date was 1/20/17 that got pushed back to 2/17/17.

a few days ago, on the verizon website, my pre-order number changed to an order number and the estimated shipping date was gone. instead, it said my order was processing.

also, i recently received a call from 844-340-4325 which i ignored because it was an unknown number. it was verizon calling to offer me a free google daydream as a consolation for the delay in delivering my pixel. i called them back and the offer was still good. i'm supposed to receive my daydream a few days after the phone. more info about the daydream offer here.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] HagTaz:
Order mine 12/17 QB...it finally shipped today and will be here 2/10.

I also received a phone call from Verizon and they are sending me a free Daydream View.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tinroofrusted:
Ordered VS 128 XL 12/17, just got text saying card was charged.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
So apparently my order changing from a pre-order to an order two days ago means nothing. Multiple Verizon people telling me I am still on for a 2/17/2017 ship date. Even though I can't see that and have no other info but an order number.

Anyone that recently received a text telling them they've been billed, how long between your MyVerizon changing and going to an order number did that text take? Was it 2 days, 4, or week?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mademan420:
Same here Ordered VS 128 XL 12/19
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hovercraftdriver:
I would have to go back and look, but I think I posted on the 2nd or 3rd that my order changed to processing...just got a text 30 minutes ago that my order was received (today's date lol) and will be notified when it ships
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
I think I am going to be screwed. Mine is supposed to ship on the 17th and I leave on vacation on the 19th. Verizon wanted to hold the phone in their warehouse but I have a feeling that means I'd get it after March 31st so I told them no. If it ships FedEx and requires a signature they'll require someone from my address to sign for it. So if it arrives after the 17th I probably won't have this phone.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tinroofrusted:
Mine changed last week Mon or Tues.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] stm8:
Same here. Ordered Black Pixel XL 128 on Dec 19, just got the same text message. Keeping my fingers crossed I will get it soon!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] metallized:
my order of VS 128 gb just changed from pre order to order n it saying order received and processing.. ordered 12/16.. they just charged my card as well.. lets see how long before they actually ship it to me.

Update: my order changed from pre order to being shipped within an hr. getting mine on monday now. finally...
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mademan420:
My Verizon is showing shipped now with a UPS tracking number and should be here Monday :victory::victory::victory:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
I never got a text or anything about my remaining VS XL128, but just got an email with the tracking number. Mine ships UPS, both times. Anyway, tracking number today means it will either be here Saturday or Monday (most likely).
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] stm8:
I think Saturday home delivery costs more? I don't know if it will show up on Saturday, but I am definitely expecting mine by Monday. My tracking number isn't in the UPS system yet.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hovercraftdriver:
Yep, just got my email and came here to report in and saw your post, so cool?

this morning, i got a text message my order was received. my credit card was also charged. about 4 hours later, i received an email saying that my order was shipped and the email included a fedex tracking number. my verizon on the verizon website is updated also. eta is monday. finally!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hokiealumnus:
The quote above was five days ago. I got a text tonight that my order was ready and I'd get another when it shipped. So excited!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mademan420:
Google must have as well as they are available to order via the Playstore.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] HagTaz:
Hopefully weather doesn't delay deliveries...

My shipment is coming from Pennsylvania, so I hope the weather there doesn't delay the delivery date...?it's here tomorrow!!!

Mine shipped FedEx with starting point West Chester, PA.

I just checked my bank and my card has been charged the tax. No email or text yet. So hopeful that I receive the phone early next week. :fingers-crossed:

Ordered a 128gb QB and 128gb VS on 12/19, original ship date of 1/20. Update on 1/22 to 2/17, then jumped around from 2/14 to 2/15 then back to 2/17. Got a text from Verizon this morning that my order was received, and about 2 hours later received tracking. Should have both phones Monday! Got the call from Verizon for the free Daydream yesterday, and I also seem to have received a bill credit without even asking!

Still waiting. I've been promised I was getting "bumped" up the list since I originally ordered on 12/16, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Looks like I'm using this 32GB a little longer than expected.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] BurtGummer:
Anyone try calling VZW to bum a free Daydream?

They sent me one and I didn't even ask for it. Nice of them (Verizon).
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
I'm going to once they actually ship my phone. So far only my credit card has been charged for the tax, no text with any shipping info and MyVerizon still shows the order as "Processing".

Edit: Nevermind, I checked MyVZW again and I have a tracking number. No other notification (e-mail or text) so if you haven't heard from them, keep checking. Mine is being shipped via UPS. :D
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] danielson2047:
Ordered 12/22. Tax charged last night and shipped this morning. 128 silver XL can't wait til Monday!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Don't forget to keep the spreadsheet updated. Especially the build number. If they start shipping the latest build I'll need to cancel my replacement phone.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hokiealumnus:
Just re-checked the VZW site and I also have a tracking number. Hopefully it will be here Monday, but Tuesday is more likely.

Heh, means I won't touch it until Wednesday, or I'll probably die at my wife's hand. ;)

Ordered 128XL QB and VS 12/23 Expected Ship Date: 02/17/2017 .. earlier in the week it changed to order number and just Processing...

they charged my credit card 02/09. No other info (text email or update of status online).

I called the 844 number a few days ago about daydream and they said sorry you were not targeted as part of this promo. I wonder if it's because my ship date never changed or delayed?

Yeah sounds like only people that had been delayed or had shipping dates change are getting offered the Daydream. Just called and I'm not on the list. Oh well. Still got a bill credit (on a previous call with VZW) and just happy to finally be getting the phone.
