[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] markfasel:
One of my devices just received an original scan. My text said it would ship out on the 18th. Here's to hoping both devices arrive tomorrow. I did pick up at customer care so if it does arrive, I should be able to snag it early!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] sparky2029:
I hope so. And I hope that for everyone that didn't get an update will get an update sometime today so we can all have then tomorrow
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] joeyac02:
Man lucky peeps some of these packages were ready after mine mines been ready since the 13th :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] vw65bus:
Mine has left also but the date still shows unavailable
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Maddball:
Mine was processed on the 13th no update yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] km8j:
+1... same here. No origin scan.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] debbie1420:
That's what mine shows too. About the date unavailable. Honestly, im just happy its in transit now lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] pilot_xphile:
Same here!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ElBeaner:
Mine updated with origin scan
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] PDXMatt:
I guess we get screwed on the west coast.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] amyf27:
Mine has my home address but I'm hoping to pickup from the delivery hub if they'll let me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] sparky2029:
Just spoke with ups about the origin scan and delivery date and they said it would be here tomorrow
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] amyf27:
I sure hope I see an origin scan update soon
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] speedysilwady:
anybody who got origin scans live in Texas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] sparky2029:
I will pray for you lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] jer21:
Yup
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] trejojr88:
Anyone in California get origin scan or any other updates???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ElBeaner:
They won't - I've tried that with UPS before. Legally they have to attempt 1 delivery before you can pick up at the HUB

DFW area here- mine updated
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] haqone:
Rather upset that others that ordered after I did are getting updates. Wonder if it has to do with my location (California)? I hope to get an update today and have it delivered by tomorrow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] The Root:
Me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] speedysilwady:
Awesome! Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Sincere11105:
Mine too. I wonder if that's the VR since I have 2 tracking numbers. I only ordered one phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Cyberguycpt:
Anyone in Southern California get an origan scan yet?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Sincere11105:
You can always change to pick up at the hub
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] amyf27:
Ive successfully been able to pickup from the hub at lest 2 or 3 times now, without having to wait for delivery attempt. They know me there at this point lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] gbzbar:
Yes. LA.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] dantes5823:
By days end my screen will have wear marks from dragging down to refresh.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] tourbound129:
The VR wouldn't be coming from T-Mobile. Only samsung.com orders hey it with the phone. Everyone else has to register.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] SAMhmmmm:
Mine changed also to origin scan (in transit) i am in brooklyn
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ElBeaner:
Only if the deliver address was your home and you have UPS my choice AND the shipper allows it - last time I had a phone shipped to me was the Note 7 and it would not allow me to change my delivery location.

If you put your work or store address - it has to be delivered there, won't let you change it.

If you have an origin scan and UPS my choice, you should be able to go ahead and change the delivery lcoation - try and see if Tmobile is allowing it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] mweinbach:
Nope
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] msage:
I'm in Tucson, AZ, got Origin scan
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] mikeb85:
Chicago area have 1 scanned 1 not scanned
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] amyf27:
I hope mine does soon. When did you preorder and was it through tmobile
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] joeyac02:
My choice you can change to pickup
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] hbk5585:
I think it has less to do with where the destination is, and more to do with when you preordered/got the Order Processed: Ready for UPS. I think those of us that ordered first (and got tracking numbers earlier), are going to get the origin scan update last.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] SAMhmmmm:
Yes it was through tmobil. Non jump, i ordered the night of preorders going live
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] nagle3092:
I was able to change mine to my work address already even though it hasnt had an origin scan yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Dzevo3d:
I'm in Brooklyn too. When did you place your order? I placed mines on 4.5
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] xSunny:
I hate you right now, I am in brooklyn as well no updates!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ray_longo:
I got one package saying in transit. I'm in SoCal here. The other phone still says order processed.

Only bad thing is that the one still "processed" is mine and I pre-oredered on March 31. I pre-oredered my wife's on Aril 3 and that's the one that's moving first!???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] PDXMatt:
I don't know if you know this, and it's just my thing. Beaner is really racist.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] MicroMod777:
Nice. Hopefully they'll hold up the flight for mine.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] The Root:
Still yes
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Maddball:
Same here. And I pre-ordered the min it was open to order. Hoping. ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] linkinx64:
Both of mine are now in transit!!!, no!! sorry I had the same number on both tabs, this is driving my insane :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] km8j:
Origin scan - woot. But no delivery date. lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] twynbyz:
When did you order yours???? I'm in socal, ordered 15 mins after launch and still ave no origin scan :confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] mweinbach:
I am in the Pacific Palisades, nothing for mine.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ILowry282:
I'm in California. Near Sacramento. I placed an order for a regular S8 on March 30 and an order for an S8+ on April 14. The weird thing is the S8+ which was placed less than a week ago is in transit with an origin scan, while the S8 is still processed waiting for UPS.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] SAMhmmmm:
F

Place my order the same night when the phones went on pre-order within a few minutes
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] imstill@g:
It's not his problem if you are offended
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] km8j:
Guys, where you live has nothing to do with this. Hundreds of thousands of phones need to be picked, boxed and shipped. They are not going to happen in perfect linear order.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] SAMhmmmm:

Hehe, give it a few minutes I am sure that it will update

Origin scan is good though. Ups scanned it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] jr866gooner:
Man I wish I had money to buy an S8 outright!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] idksomuch:
Mine was processed the exact same time as yours. I haven't gotten the origin scan yet but I'm excited.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ray_longo:
3/31 at about 12:15am for mine and the wife's on 4/3 at about 9am.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] siggystyle:
Way behind on the thread, but just received an update of an "Origin Scan" by UPS in Louisville.... I believe they are loading them up... Again, sorry if this is not news, as I am behind...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] jer21:
Still nothing. hmph. I wish I wasn't so slow at work this week, making my day drag!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] speedysilwady:
Im in the Houston Area too! still no origin scan on my end but it looks like they may be getting to it sooner rather than later. Thanks for the update
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] dirquist:
I got shipping notices for both my case and screen protector so I'm excited about that. No origin scan here in Washington State. Ordered early morning on the 31st. Its a race between my phone and case lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] clockedtouch:
Savannah, Origin Scan, In transit canceled and re-ordered on 11th!! I know who's leaving work early tomorrow. This guy!!

Side note I noticed my local Best Buy stocked the Zagg curved glass screen protector but its not available via the site if anyone is interested in getting one, check your local Best Buy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] siggystyle:
Oh yeah, I am well aware of the reason those customers are upset and have even posted a few arguments on their behalf... I think it's BS, but we have seen a few vague "fine prints" that may allow this extra charge to be valid, even if Misleading in the terms of agreement...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ethanscooter:
Also in transit for me! EXCITED
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] siggystyle:
Agreed... Those rep-responses is the very reason I will not go to them with questions... No matter what they say, you can't trust it...

That's an update but no delivery date.

For us in Florida we will see one of two things, either it will go out around 11:30 and go through Jacksonville or it will go out around 1am and go to Orlando. I live in Lakeland and have had both routes.

Being that the mass of devices have started moving I think all of us who have "Ready for UPS" will get our devices tomorrow, with maybe a few outliers. My iPhone 7 went from KY to my local depot in 5 hours and I never got an actual "In Transit" notification.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] StaticMoot:
St Petersburg, here. Origin scan as of 1:18 PM today. We do have a local UPS air hub though separate from you guys. Should be soon though. There's only one flight heading out from Louisville scheduled for St Pete and that's at 4:30 PM today. Hoping my phone will be on that one and I'll have it tomorrow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] siggystyle:
Maybe it was closer to the machine?? Good news is, if the latter was scanned then both should be in the 1st wave, just getting the 2nd scanned a little later (it's buried under all the latter orders)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] dantes5823:
i finally got an origin scan. super excited. so far thats the second piece of good news today.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] fightftg5:

lol seriously though. I wonder how many lurkers we have.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] pilot_xphile:
I'm in Miami, but since my label was between the first ones created on 04/13, I guess is waaaaay in the back of the warehouse, so I'm just waiting for it to be scanned later.

Ordered mine. Told myself I wouldn't get a Samsung after they removed the SD card but this one seems to hit all the right buttons.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] rabilancia:
Me too. I refused to order my S8+ using JOD until I could guarantee that' I'd get the $130 back as a credit. I've been a customer since 2001.

Yesterday, I sent an e-mail to John Legere appealing my case and this afternoon I got a call from an Abagail in "the T-Mobile executive offices." She went through a long explanation trying to justify the upfront cost on JOD. I didn't buy it and I simply asked, "Can't you simply credit the $130 back?"

She immediately agreed to do so, and on the spot took my order for an S8+ in black. My credit card will be charged $130 + state sales tax when my unit ships. My T-Mobile account was immediately credited for $130 (but no sales taxes). My monthly JUMP! ON DEMAND Lease Payment (including estimated taxes) will be $31.97.

Now I can get the Note 8 in 6 months and not feel that I was "taken!" I'm happy. :)

If you're a good customer: ask, be polite, be firm and then be rewarded.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] cfcryme:
is AKG headphone + 256GB memory card worth to get for $99?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] BigSK225:
You're absolutely correct about being polite yet firm. I've only been a customer for four years and they were very adamant about not refunding anything at first. The conversation changed once I asked for my account # and pin to switch to Verizon (I would never! Lol). Let them know how much you DON'T want to switch but you WILL if they can't accommodate you.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Blues fan:
Hey guys, can you help me out here? I ordered the s8 off the Samsung.com site the other day, the tmobile version and it had a "free activation" option to select. Anyway I didn't select this because I obviously already have a Tmobile Simcard and account and simply just switching to a new phone. All I have to do is just pop my simcard into the S8, right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] zainqaiser:
From what i know all u have to do is just pop ur sim card in it and it will work. No need to worry.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Blues fan:
That is what I was thinking. Someone posted a screen shot of it since they activated it, and on the bottom of the page it says the billing cycle starts as soon as it's activated. So I'm assuming that is for opening a new line with SIM card? If so, then people are getting hosed being billed while they don't have their phones yet. I recall this issue with the Note 7.

It could register the phone with the carrier that way too so they have your phone info.
