Just got off the phone with them about 2 hours ago. I asked whats the hold up, I said I ordered on Dec 21st and she looked everything up. She apologized for the wait and said they would be sending out a Day Dream shortly after the phone ships.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] purecard:
Received email from Verizon with tracking number via UPS this morning. Ordered 12/27 with an expected ship date of 2/17.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DroidForLife33:
Mine just came by ups I was able to unlock the bootloader. Setting it up now. I updated the spreadsheet also.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] beavis9k:
An email with a tracking number showed up last night for the QB 128GB I ordered on 12/23. It should arrive Tuesday.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hovercraftdriver:
So how are people's Day Dreams getting here, by mail, UPS or what? Also has anybody received one since they started calling about them last week?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Verizon sent me one without asking. It also included a nice letter with it. Mine arrived my UPS. I didn't get a text about it. I happened to check "My Verizon" and saw another order on my account.

Received my 128GB VS Pixel XL today and it was still running 7.1. Unlocked then updated with no problems!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hovercraftdriver:
Waiting on mine...my UPS guy usually comes between 6-7 as our neighborhood is last stop before the depot just down the road...wish they loaded the truck the other way, lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mademan420:
Same here, so I had them hold mine at the UPS distro center and I just picked it up from there when they opened at 10:30
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
Mine shipped late Friday (according to UPS) so it's not arriving until tomorrow. Even though on MyVerizon it shows as being delivered today.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Went home for lunch and the UPS truck pulled in right behind me. My wife's VS Pixel XL 128 is on October's NDE63P, and it's already dePixel8'd. Taking the system update now, and then I plan to install TWRP and Elemental 1.06 for her.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hovercraftdriver:
Mine just got delivered, too bad I can't tinker with until morning.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] firefly777:
mine delivered earlier this afternoon (was slated for 02/14 but FedEx got here today) 128gb XL VS and QB. running NDE63P so was able to depixel and unlock the bootloader. yay!!! :)

I called the 844 number again hoping for a free Daydream and the rep said it goes for November orders first and then December and im end of December (12/23) so wait up and will eventually get one.. Let's see how that goes .. yes i know the reps are full of b.s. haha
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
I was told the same thing today about the Daydream. Supposedly they'll get to everyone. I asked what was the criteria for receiving one and they said anyone that ordered a Pixel and had to wait will get one.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mkilla:
We all had to wait!!

What about the ones that ordered the daydream with the phone?!? Lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] beavis9k:
My 128GB QB was delivered today, and thankfully it's running NDE63P too.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mkilla:
Yea I highly doubt with being as backed up as they are on manufacturer ing the phones that they are concerned about getting an updated version on them.

I received my 128GB QB Pixel XL yesterday from Verizon via UPS. It came with NDE63P installed.

I updated my info on the spreadsheet.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hokiealumnus:
Received my 128G VS Pixel XL today and it was on NDE63P (and is now unlocked). Spreadsheet updated, and I'll be unsubscribing now, so throw me a mention if you address me.

Thanks to all that co-suffered through this rigmarole!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] altwu:
i received my pixel xl yesterday. it came with the october update, NDE63P. i unlocked the bootloader, with the help of dePixel8, updated to the 7.1.1 update(NOF26V), and installed twrp and supersu. i'm still getting used to the phone, but i'm loving it so far!

i updated the spreadsheet.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] whitak3r:
Got my Pixel XL 128 Silver today and it was the October update NDE63P. Used the de8 unlock method and it works perfect. SUCH a difference between the s6 Edge+, but you have NOOO idea how happy I am to finally have a rooted phone again! I can't wait to be able to block youtube ads again! Last rooted phone I had was a HTC one m7.

Thanks everyone!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
Received my VS 128GB XL today but didn't check the version. I'm sure it was NDE63P. I never intended on rooting or doing any of that stuff so it didn't matter to me. I did go into a Verizon store to trade in my old LG V10 (I preferred to hand it to them instead of shipping it). While there I activated the phone and it updated to 7.1.1 :D so it wouldn't have helped if I intended to root.

Either way, all is well and the spreadsheet is updated on my end.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
A friend got his replacement pixel XL on Friday. He had a microphone issue with his. Replacement was a brand new phone with NDE63P
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
Man Verizon...get you act together already! Had one order canceled because I upgraded my plan 2 weeks after ordering in Dec.....no notice or anything. Didn't know until ship date (1/13) was near and I called them. Re -order Pixel XL VS 128GB on 1/13 with expected ship date of 3/10.

Called to get the free Google VR only to be told I did not qualify for it for some reason. 2 days later I get ship notice for something from Verizon...started to get happy! Only to realize it was a Google VR based on the weight and box dimensions...called Vzw......they had no clue or record of the VR. Called VZW to check on my order and make sure everything is ok and when it's shipping. VZW says they can't see my order....talked to a supervisor and she was going to call me back and never did...........I was so mad and about ready to cancel all my lines at VZW!

Thursday got shipping notice from FedEx....my order shipped and will be here Monday 2/27!

I swear VZW has no clue what they are doing. I checked my account online and it doesn't show anything.

Ordered Pixel XL VS 128GB
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] rsalas187:
I ordered my Pixel XL 128gb Very Silver on the 2/13 , the expected date for the order to be filled was 3/31 . I received a notification yesterday 2/23 that my package has been shipped and the delivery date is 2/27.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Which one did you order?

I ordered my replacement one on 2/06/17 and mine still says 3/21/17

QB 128Gb

128gb Very Silver
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
black or silver?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] rsalas187:
Very Silver
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mkilla:
Wow lucky you, but that's a crock been waiting two months for my phone, haven't heard anything..
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] HOOKEDONDROID:
Ordered QB 128gb XL on 2/12, was supposed to ship 3/14, 3/21, 3/31. Watched Verizon like a hawk (obsessively) saw Very Silver XL become available. Called Verizon today to cancel my QB, changed to VS. shipped out this afternoon. Will get it Monday.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] dopeismarcus:
I notice that too but i think im going to wait for the quite black. I cannot stand white front phones.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mkilla:
When did you order yours?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] dopeismarcus:
Im a new verizon customer ordered my QB 128gb on 2/23 it says it'll ship out on 3/21. But if you go to verizonwireless.com and go to VS 128gb its available to ship now.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mkilla:
That's cool but very hard to believe. Maybe they are finally getting caught up on their stock.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
I ordered my replacement on 2/06/17 and mine still says it's a preorder with ship date of 3/21.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mkilla:
Does anyone have any recent updates on their waiting orders? Mine is suppose to ship by 3/10.

I'm curious to know if anyone who has received their pixel lately if we are still on the older version still?!?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Mine still says 3/21 and I've only seen what people report here or in the unlocking thread. So far they have been shipping with the old software.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bb12489:
I ordered my QB 32GB XL on 2/27. Still says ETA of 3/21
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spadz93:
Ordered three early december, scheduled for feb 14th, then feb 17th, then feb 27th, then march 2nd, finally the phones arrived this past tuesday march 7th. Luckily, the backorder phones (at least the 3 we ordered) still ship with 7.1, so I promptly unlocked mine via depixel8 lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Would you link me the info on where to depixel8. What worked for you. I haven't done it and I am hoping mine will still get here with 7.1 on it.

My ship date still says 3/21

Don't put a SIM in it, and don't connect it to wifi until you unlock it.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
I have a feeling we're going to see the 03/21s start shipping next week.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mkilla:
Mine is suppose to ship tomorrow but it's not looking good. Haven't heard anything from verizon.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bobby janow:
Come on man. Did you even launch Google and type that into the search bar? How can you ask that?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Yeah and a lot pop up. It was nice to get a response from someone that JUST did it and it worked correctly. I haven't rooted in years and I already messed it up once. This is help community not a ***** community.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mkilla:
Things are looking good, my preorder number changed to a order number!!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MrDrift42:
Got my 128gig Wednesday, still had October security update. Pulled the sim, skipped setup and Depixel8 worked great. Then took the Feb OTA. Just got the March OTA a minute ago, and everything is going good. Still undecided if I want to root or not. Only thing I miss from my Rooted N6 is swapping back and recents. Might just leave this one stock, but at least I've got it unlocked just in case.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
My card just got charged, for my expected 03/21 order, so I imagine I'll have it by Tuesday.

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
Just got my tracking number. It's not showing the delivery date yet, but I think Tuesday will be the day. Counting on it still being on 63P. If not, the boy is just going to have to live with a locked bootloader. It'll probably bother me more than him, if it does arrive updated.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mkilla:
Got my shipping number, I imagine a Tuesday delivery also.

Is signature required?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] thacounty:
Yes it is

I thought they shipped these phones or any phones for that matter all next day air??

Mine is coming ground. Probably won't get it till wednesday.

Thanks to this blizzard, no Pixel XL delivery for the boy today. Good thing he doesn't know it's coming.

Still no shipping updates here in New England. I don't think it will be here today. Probably tomorrow.

Verizon's Liability

It's nice that they can put an asterisk next to the shipment date and suddenly it means nothing. Can you tell I'm getting antsy?

Ordered 10/5

Estimated delivery 11/1
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
Either way, I am still not a happy camper. I want this phone before the security update patches the bootloader exploit and then left with only the possibility of unlocking it again if it can be cracked open again.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Jrgom:
Looks like the Verizon site is now saying 1-6-2017 for the xl 128 gb black .... i really hope this is not the case.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] parmend:
I order 10-23 and it got pushed back to 12-26 so I cancelled and got the 5inch black 128gb . It took 3 days get here . Actually love the size and the battery life
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] booked:
I'm some what tempted to do that also but I really want that QHD screen and I'm used to the note screen size.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] parmend:
I came from note 7 and the 1080p screen is just as sharp (to the naked eye) . The only thing I kinda regret is the color, I got black and screen protectors on the black are very noticeable
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
After another chat with a rep, it looks like the December dates look more and more accurate. An interesting note from this Congo is the rep implied that some of the phones they did get were shipped to stores first before fulfilling the orders placed already. Whether that did actually happen or not, I have no idea. She wouldn't verify this upon asking directly. I so would order from the Google store at this point if my credit was not already shot.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Bicknasty:
Thank you so much for giving any kind of optimism
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
No problem. I am just trying to let everyone know what I am finding out. The wait itself is okay with me because my Galaxy Note 2 still is working well. My only impatience centers around getting the Pixel before the December security update. I have faith that the awesome devs working on this device will find another work around for the bootloader, root, and twrp, but it may not all come as quickly as what it has for this first iteration of devices.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Jrgom:
Sorry for asking, but curious on the December update? What changes will be made to the phone and would this affect non rooted phones? Thanks and sorry if this comes across as a stupid question
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
I read in other threads that the December security update will patch the loophole that allows all the current modifications. The chance is high that any phones being shipped after that update is live will have this update already preloaded, blocking all of the current mods. If this happens, chances are I may just return the device in the 14 day window. I value my root apps I use on a daily basis too much to give that up.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] biggiestuff:
Reading this thread and then reading the other shipping thread depresses me. What a ****ty launch.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Harleydroid:
No doubt
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
Frankly I cannot find myself justifying this purchase anymore at this point in time. I just saw the Black Friday deals Verizon has going for the regular Pixel, which will be the equivalent of $15 a month. Even though I prefer the bigger and better screen and battery, I cannot justify paying over twice the monthly cost on top of not knowing when the idiots decide to ship me the XL. So I intend to cancel this out tonight and head to a Verizon store in the morning and maybe walk out with a regular 128gb pixel.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
Just got done chatting online with another CS rep. I explained how my phone was supposed to ship 11/18 then my date changed to 12/26, then I spoke with a CS manager and she told me it would be shipping tomorrow 11/25. The CS rep on the chat told me that she too showed it shipping tomorrow. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I also see that the holiday specials have started and the monthly payment has dropped to $25. AFTER it ships, I'm going to call in and harangue them until they give me the deal.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
You may have an easier time trying to get them to change the price before it ships. I could see Verizon saying that once the device ships, their end of the contract is fulfilled thus locking you in for the higher price. You may get a rep who would change the price point after the fact but I see it as an uphill battle.

My game plan is going to be to contact a rep and say that I see the price point for the black Friday special and I want a device for that price, but I still have yet to have the one I ordered shipped to me. Then I will proceed to say it would be easier on my end to change the price on the one still ordered than it will be to cancel out that order and reorder the same exact device. And push back my shipping date on top of that.

---------- Post added at 06:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 PM ----------

Well scratch that. Even a CS Manager refused to change the price point. They are directed from higher up not to change the preordered prices. I gave up on it and cancelled my order because I cannot justify that massively different price point. My screenshots are not posting for some reason else I would post screens of the conversation I just had with them. Verizon customer service has been atrocious through this and has done absolutely nothing but give false reassurances throughout this ordeal.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] biggiestuff:
Sounds like you guys are worse off than me. If I had paid full price for the phone like you guys, I'd cancel to. The only thing holding me on to the phone is that I'm paying the subsidized price.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] booked:
I'm going to call Verizon first thing in the morning and see if they have any in stock.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] booked:
Called Verizon and of course they don't have any xl 128's in stock.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] WilliamStern:
Just hit up Best Buy, and Verizon stores with no luck. I don't understand what's going on with this release? It's like they don't wanna sell 128gb XL's.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
Just got off the phone with CS yet again. My phone is still showing as going out today, so I'll continue to keep my fingers crossed. After dealing with an extremely unhelpful rep, I asked to be transferred to her manager, and he was able to get me the $25/mo. deal on the order without having to do a new order or further delaying shipment.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] WilliamStern:
Ok, just got off the phone with Verizon. My phone ships tomorrow, and should arrive by Tuesday. My phone was supposed to ship on 11/19 and the date moved back to 12/26. After some *****ing last week it was switched to 11/26. Hope this info gives you guys some hope.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] booked:
Called best buy and Verizon. Apparently they didn't find it necessary to stock pixel xl's at all.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] htusa:
Just talked to Verizon about my ship date on my original 128XL. I used an upgrade on another line for this 32xl.

She said that all orders are pushed back to 12/26 and that's a big maybe they will ship by then. I had my date changed to 11/26 then pushed back to 12/26. CS manager just confirmed the same info. I called again just for kicks and grins and yup same info. Come Monday I'll cancel the 128xl order as I'm outside the 14 day window.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Harleydroid:
Lucky you. I tried to get today's deal and they refused to do it unless I cancel my pre-order and order today.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
I guess it all has to do with who you talk to then. A manager refused to do this for me. I went into a store today and got the Pixel 128gb instead so I have that device now. The rep there though was more helpful than the CS manager I dealt with before. The rep in the store set me up with the regular pixel and ordered the XL online. The date I have to return the Pixel is after that which the XL would show up so win/win for me
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
Surprise, surprise! Yesterday came and went, and no shipping notice. The $25/mo deal isn't going to do me any good if I get this phone after dePixel8 has been patched.

The way this is looking I wouldn't count on your XL shipping within the return period.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
Yeah I didn't have any faith at all with the line the reps were feeding me. That's why I went about getting the regular pixel instead just to make sure I got a device. I now have my bootloader unlocked, twrp installed, and running EX kernel. The way I look at it is if the new security update can be fully unlocked, I will give the Pixel back anyways, even if I have to wait a little past the shipping date. However if the new patch is not cracked open by the time I would have to take the Pixel back, at least I have a device I truly own.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] biggiestuff:
Has anyone tried contacting Google? I mean they are the suppliers. It's BS that they are completing orders that were placed a whole month after those that ordered at Verizon. I mean I get it. We should have ordered through Google but, it seems like Google doesn't respect Verizon at all.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Salval:
I ordered my Pixel XL 128 on 11/24 and have a shipping date of January 6th. Pretty poor planning on some accounts. Why you would have a black friday sale on something you have no stock of is beyond me. In the mean time I have my 32GB Play Store model.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
At least that is more reasonable than expecting people who ordered at or before the phone release date to expect to wait until Christmas. Google has really disappointed me with this phone release. If they want to ever be seen as a legitimate phone manufacturer, then they cannot favor their own online store over their customers who order the same phone from other outlets. Imagine how much Apple or Samsung would get slammed in the media if they pulled the same shenanigans.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DoctorB0NG:
How often do the 128gb XL get restocked? They're selling for absurd amounts on Swappa because of the insanely low supply
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Bicknasty:
There was the initial stock for preorders, and nothing since. So how often is basically never.

I ordered a 32GB Really Blue XL on 11/6 (expected ship date 12/2) and just got a tracking number today saying it will be delivered Wednesday (11/30). Pretty excited, but worried about cases now. I want a UAG clear case, but they don't come out till early December.
