I stopped by quite a few Verizon Stores and no one had 128gb Pixel XL model. A few had small Pixel with 32gb which I did not want
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] edwards311:
just booted mine up. Version 7.1, Build NDE63P, Security patch: October 5,2016
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] M9guy:
Awesome thanks for confirming then, just as the verizon pixel someone confirmed yesterday so both are shipping two updates behind. So it looks like some of us may get a christmas present of depixel8 still going to unlock our bootloaders lol definitely cool to hear :good::D
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jimbop98:
Glad you are finally getting your device. If I had preordered early enough to get the free VR I might not have cancelled my 10/21 order. Right now with the order I placed for the Black Friday price, I am stuck in the no date purgatory. Hopefully orders this late will also ship with 7.1 and then my Pixel 128 will be going back. Lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] M9guy:
I bet yours will ship possibly before the weekend as they seem to be shipping out now. I bought two verizon xl 128's on 11-21-16 as I got the buy one get one 50% off deal saving over $400 on the 2nd one mine has had a ship date of 1-7-17 from day one on my purchase order receipt since then I have seen no date of any kind on line my order just lists Your order is currently being processed. Please check back later.

Unlocked, TWRP, root, and Weta ROM. Loving it.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] M9guy:
Glad to hear, I remember your posts about wondering if yours would come and depixel8 still work on it. Enjoy now once we get an official twrp release the custom roms will start to fly :D
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
TWRP RC1 is pretty darned good. With the exception of choosing the boot slot, I flashed WETA in the traditional manner.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] M9guy:
Has anyone that ordered a 128 gb verizon pixel xl close to November 21 st received theirs or tracking for theirs ?

I ordered mine on 11-21 but from what I have seen as others getting theirs I"am thinking mine should be shipping by now or so ?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sslayer22:
Just got my verizon black 128gb XL on Saturday. Now it's unlocked bootloader, rooted, TWRP, weta ROM...

I unlocked, TWRP, and rooted right out of the box, then sideloaded latest update through twrp, reflashed SuperSU to keep root, dirty flashed weta rom based on same update.... Had no problems at all

Forgot to delete that file when flashing SuperSU the second time but that was the only issue which was my fault but no big deal at all
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] M9guy:
So when did your order get placed ? Good to know about sideloading ota with twrp, as i thought it was not supported as when i did mine i flashed back to stock recovery to sideload the ota guess i should have tried through twrp.:p lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Froztvolt:
They are back ordered all the way til 2/20 atm.

In work at verizon
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] M9guy:
Wow can you say Google was not prepared lol. I think Google thought the smaller pixel would sell more than the xl. I think verizon should stop lying on their commercials saying pixel is only through verizon when thats a lie because you can buy them through the Google play store also.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] sslayer22:
I don't remember the date it was ordered sorry. I know it was too late for the VR set promo. All I know is that it was early November.

The main reason I did the sideload is because I downloaded everything needed to my laptop beforehand and it was easier to run a command than to transfer the ota file to the phone, then flash.

I started using the walk throughs on Android explained. Not that I need the explanation but everything you need is in one spot, steps are broken down nicely, steps are the most complete I've found(collectively, haven't found any missing info yet), all the same format/layout so easy n fast to navigate.

That dude is doing it right and has tons of content.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] BurtGummer:
Guys, I placed my order on 11/10. Estimated ship date was 12/26. My card on file was just charged for the activation fee! It should be shipped any second now(?)
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
Yep, should be going out tomorrow. :good:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Wow, that escalated quickly. I ordered two XL128's on 11/25 and 11/26 with the $100 off upgrade promo, both got ship dates of 1/6/17. Then just a few days ago I canceled those orders and made new ones in order to get the $20/mo promo (cancel and reorder is what the Rep on *611 told me had to happen), and got a ship date of 1/20/17.

Now you're saying it's backed out to 2/20/17 for new orders. Wait 3 days and it makes a month's worth of difference on getting the phone. I guess it's probably safe to say that I'm not going to find a deal like Verizon's on the Google Store version of the XL128 any time soon, even considering that they ever come back in stock.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Blackiedamus:
I ordered my Pixel XL way back on the 27th of October, with an expected ship date of 12/2. Fast forward to that day, I get an email saying it's pushed back 'til the 13th of January. Four days later I get a notification my card was charged and my phone shipped on the 9th. I had October security updates when I got my phone on the 14th.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] 557953:
Don't suppose anyone on EE UK is seeing this thread and received Dec Security Patch on their Pixel? I'm still so up in the air on weather to take the plunge or not!

Sorry to jump in a Verizon thread guys but didn't really warrant its own IMO.

I ordered 2 pixel xl 128gb on 11-24-16 with a shipping date of 1-6-17. I was just charged for the phones a couple of hours ago.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] M9guy:
I ordered 2 verizon pixel xl 128's on 11-21 as I got them buy one get one 50% off saving me over $400.00, I had just called verizon a couple hours ago about to check up on the order which I had a delivery date of 1-6-17 but usually they cover their ass and give over extended ship dates so they have added time, and now I just got an email receipt from my credit card company listing the charge from verizon so I mine hopefully shipped out today hoping that is but in most probability it will probably ship monday unless it was fed ex then might ship saturday but if its UPS it will be monday because UPS drivers are union and dont work weekends, hoping its fed ex :fingers-crossed:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] FUZER384:
I ordered my Pixel XL on 12/13 under the trade-in program for $25 monthly. This was the program with the LG G4 and LG G3 as eligible trade-ins. I was given a 1-11 deliver date. My card was charged today and when I contacted VZW they said the shipping process has started. I'm surprised it shipped so soon, and I'm kinda anxious with the way they change deals so often I hope they honor the promotion I was really surprised at the LG G3 being eligible. BTW is the $20 no trade-in promo still valid?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] vibr4x:
My Verizon order for a pixel xl 128 was placed on Dec 20, was told expected schedule date was Jan 20, got my shipping info yesterday. So some time this week will have it.

Update: picked up today 12-28 from Verizon store. Has 7.1 on it.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
I have a Pixel XL coming from Verizon in February. So are there easy to unlock the bootloader? I heard the Verizon version would be locked down and haven't been on these forums at all lately.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
So far people are reporting that the VZW Pixels are still shipping with the October build, so you can still use dePixel8 out of the box before updating. That may change at any time though, and is feared to do so at some point. Following the December update the dePixel8 exploit is patched and there's no option to unlock the encrypted bootloader yet.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] haitu:
My is shipping, should get it on wednesday. Here is to hoping that it is under 7.1.1 so I may unlock it on Verizon.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
So is the story that, in general, these ship earlier than these approximate dates Verizon is giving us? I think mine said February 10... Hopefully it comes in January then!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] collindv:
I ordered mine on black Friday. Original expected date of 1/6/17. I am still patiently waiting with no change so far. Have seen at least one or two posts of people ordering after me and getting it already so hopefully it ships sooner
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
I'm guessing they are getting theirs sooner based on color/size? That would drive me nuts!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] fiveighteen:
Ordered the Very Silver 128GB on 11/23 and still haven't been charged or seen a change from "Your order is currently being processed. Please check back later." (Expected ship date 1/6)

Wondering if the ones shipping are black?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] collindv:
Mine was black, Same situation as you
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] M9guy:
I ordered my verizon pixel xl 128's on 11-21-16 so 2 days before yours mine are black also. I got a tracking number for UPS 2 day on the 24th but was never scanned in until today at 9:03 am which is odd because UPS is listed on their web site to be closed today in observance of Christmas. I would imagine yours should ship tomorrow or wednesday at the latest.

I would imagine yours should ship sometime this week.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
The two orders I placed on 11/25 and 11/26 (ship dates of 1/6/17) were supposedly cancelled by a VZW Rep who told me that to get the updated $20/month deal I had to cancel/reorder. I did that on 12/17 and was told an expected ship date of 1/20/17. Now those two original orders are still showing "processing" with no expected ship dates listed, and the two new orders are showing "processing" with ship dates of 2/17/17. I'm calling VZW today to figure this mess out.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Called VZW. I'm back to showing 1/20 ship date on MyVerizon and the rep confirmed that's what is on their system as well. I was also told that as orders are being processed, payment terms are being done as well and some of those fail. For example, if a customer bought the phone outright, or lives in a state where VZW has to collect sales taxes and those were paid with a credit card, etc., then in those cases there's a charge being made before the phone ships. If the charge fails for whatever reason - maxed out card, invalid billing info, whatever - then VZW gives the customer a text/email and short window to rectify the situation before bumping them to the back of the line and processing that handset for the next person in line. So orders may be shipping early for some people, and that's because other people are not prompt at holding up their end of the billing agreement.

Rep told me this happens a lot during the holidays especially.

Got mine today via work. October security and 7.1. Phone was ordered just prior to Thanksgiving. DePixeled and updated than rooted.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] game_guy:
I ordered two Pixel XLs. One black and one Silver, both 128GB. Ordered both phones on November 16th and just received them today. Both came with Android 7.1 and October Security Update. Was able to unlock both bootloaders using dePixel8. (Verizon btw)
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mumaxe:
First time seeing this thread, just came back to the world of android after a odd Year with a 6s+. Went to a verizon store near home, exactly 7 days ago, they ordered a pixel and surprised me went to the store 3 days after thinking it was weird it got there so fast, turns out they ordered the regular and not the XL, so they reordered the XL (128gb) and to my surprise AGAIN 3 days later i got my phone, as in yesterday. Droid 7.1 so it was Depixl8'able, so i went ahead and got the bootloader unlocked. Very happy with my lil XL and its neat darkness. Need more roms and kernels to flash tho :D

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] collindv:
Mine was just delivered. I am not home but I had my wife send me a picture of the label. Looks like it is running software version NDE63P, which I believe is the October update and still unlockable!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] deoki:
[This is a thread already created on ZTE's USA forum, but since no one has cared to answer, I'll just cross post it here and on Reddit until someone can give me feedback (lnks at the bottom)]

I passed by an overturned car and since some people were already there helping, I decided to call 112 (the same as "911" in Europe). To my disbelief, my Axon 7 just stood there, no warnings, no sounds, no nothing. I thought that maybe it was a Vodafone coverage issue so I grabbed my wife's Note 3 NEO that has the same carrier and as soon as I dialed 112 it just worked.

After all the commotion and once we arrived to our destination, I made a couple calls for some friends and everything worked out fine, with the exception of emergency numbers! Now, I don't known about you, but although I don't plan on making regular emergency calls, I'm quite worried about not being able to make one in case something happens.

I have a A2017G grey model bought on Amazon that has been updated normally via OTA to 0B03 and 0B05.

Could anyone confirm this situation as well, please? Like model, firmware and if it calls 112/911

Thanks in advance, everyone.

I have seen this in the US version too. 911 doesnt work. I had to install a different dialer
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] QuantumFluxx:
Anyone on custom ROMs might have a similar problem as well... On certain LOS 14.1 ROMs, dialing 911 & 112 (Yes, I tried both, as they are interchangeable in The States) would cause an immediate reboot. On other ROMS, the call might complete, but with no in call interface. So you've got no way to hang up, toggle speakerphone/mute, etc... I've also seen this on my old Moto X Pure Edition after flashing a custom ROM, so the problem could be related...

I would urge everyone to save the telephone number of your local police department and state police into your contacts.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] bkores:
For me this issue only happens with the Google Dialer on any ROM, including stock. The call goes through, but with no call UI. The AOSP and ZTE dialers both work for me for emergency calls.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Blues fan:
Yes, I know the V20 unlocked version doesn't have wifi calling, but overall is it still a good buy? BH sells it for 800 and no taxes. I currently have the S7 edge but bored with it and want a bigger phone.

If you know from my posts on Android forums I had a hell of a time getting my money back from them for my Note 7 which took 2.5 months. I do not want to buy another phone from a carrier for awhile after this mess.

Would this be a good purchase still despite losing wifi calling? Are there any advantages to it?

Also i noticed in your aries tree that you still have egl.cfg which is deprecated now :)

am i correct in assuming that you will get the fisheye effect on the camera with this?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Original Android Development] Rhonin86:
downloading right now - will give it a try :) and report...

[MENTION=5746995]doriandiaconu[/MENTION] OK here is my first impression:

The ROM starts without probs - i even don't have to adjust the updater script :good:

Cam starts without forceclosing - but this could be not valid for the whole time - but for now it works - the foto i have taken has still little problems with autofocus - but for now not bad

* Equalizer for Music seems not to work - there is no difference in sound while applying different presets.

* Though weather for statusbar could be selected there is no weather to be seen - the same could be said for weather on the lockscreen simply not there - i installed Yahoo CM weather Provider - but the service couldn't even accept a given location ???

* System sounds could not be adjusted - they are very loud for now - but maybe there is a hidden feature to adjust...

* NFC could not be activated - the field is insensitiv

THX for this build

Update:

Weather seems to work now - maybe some time was needed for an update - on Lockscreen Weather could be seen, but Music on lockscreen has to be deactivated

Sony aren't at fault for this. Look at Samsung. Because of the Exynos CPU and the knox partition they don't even hope for a CM/AOSP project, either on the S7 or the S6.
