Problem is that the order doesnt pull up in my tmobil account. It just keeps on saying to give it 48 hours if you just placed the order and i placed it the same night it went live for pre order
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] tnick84:
Guess it's official...All future Samsung preorders will be handled​ just like the note 7.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] PDXMatt:
Trust me, the iPhone 7 pre-order process was just as bad, if not worse. They kept pushing back the date for a lot of people. Some didn't get their phones until a month after they were told they'd get it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] expl0it4:
Same here.

Charged and texted two days ago, still no tracking or UPS. JOD

---------- Post added at 01:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:23 PM ----------

For those of you lucky elite who got tracking yesterday, do any show that they are in the hands of UPS with a delivery date
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] andyshannon3:
Well it kind of makes sense why they aren't shipping yet. The free gear vr headsets are limited to the first 350k people who submit. If tmobile ships earlier than everyone else, only tmobile customers will get the free gear vrs. I am guessing Samsung put a hold on shipping until the same certain date for every carrier
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] EVOme:
I ordered the moment it went live and have been charged, no tracking. My coworker, I basically had to sell the S8 to at work the following day ended up ordering the end of the preorder day already has tracking. WTH!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] christophec:
I got my tracking too but it's just the label created. It hasn't been picked up my ups anyway so... Ups are pretty on point when it comes to those details
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] markfasel:
I did see a video on YouTube by one of the big Android news channels (I'll look it up when I get a chance because I can't remember which one, but reputable) saying T-Mobile users are will get their devices early. They said it may only be a few days early but still earlier than street date. If that's the case I'd say it looks like early next week!

I got my text saying they were getting my order packed for shipping but no label or update from T-Mobile with UPS. How long was it for everyone else once you got your text?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] short/y:
FWIW, i was reading about so many getting their tracking number from the UPS Mobile app so I went out to the UPS site (I have a My UPS account) and checked by reference using my phone number (the S8+ I ordered is a JUMP! upgrade) and nothing showed up. So I installed the app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ups.mobile.android) and signed in -- there it was!

If you're really curious about your status, I suggest you sign up for My UPS and install the app. Once you get the tracking number from the app it will show up on the UPS website and you can continue to track it from there and uninstall the app.

And, no, the package hasn't moved yet for me...it still shows only that the label was created.

Me too. Still no tracking and no tmobile text

Ready For UPS: This just means it is ready for ups to take. They don't even have it yet. Mine has been like that since yesterday and I've done a lot of pre-orders. Once you get an actual notification saying it's been sent out for delivery... Then you'll know. Also, Next Day Air Saver does not deliver on weekends SO even if it did taken to get shipped today the soonest youd get it would be Monday.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Nonbiasedhippo:
LOL at how bad the TMO website and customer service is. The rep accidentally cancelled my order, made me order a new one which my bank flagged.... So she decided to run the card again and now she has to cancel that order too because they can only run the card twice, thats it. I just cancelled it all and ordered via Samsung. Still guaranteed to get it by the 20th. Oh, and the bundle comes with the phone, no redeeming nonsense.

Jerjer, thats not nice. Now be good to your thread brother. Lol. This is an instance I hate to have been right about not shipping too early but definitely glad we helped keep people expectations from being too high that they crashed and burned and would have been ranting and cussing up a storm all over this thread.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] PDXMatt:
That's possible. It's very early out here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] truckerdewd:
Got all the relevant texts and emails about phone being shipped and tracking and updated lease with Imelda number. UPS app and website not updated yet. Oh well, I didn't need my phone today anyway since I'm having surgery on my severely fractured elbow today.

Sent from my wickedly awesome Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 using my S-Pen. Duh!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] kirdroid:
I know you still think that UPS is picking this weekend, trust us not going to happen. We also have more latest "evidence" from Note 7 pre order that this is not going to start moving till 17th or 18th.

I didn't get any notice from tmobile that it's shipping and the site is not updated but once I logged into UPS it showed the tracking #.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] amyf27:
Have you checked for it when you log in too? I keep checking to see if that appears.

11:06am got email with equipment update ( IMEI)

UPS still showing ready for UPS
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] mweinbach:
So how has everyone been getting their IMEI numbers early?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] ShadowDXS:
You guys wanna hear something stupidly funny? I pre-ordered the S8 thinking to myself 'am i gonna regret not getting the plus size model?'. Well after a payment failed i had to call TMO after i got payed to make sure my phone got here on time, then Rep on the phone tells me "That will XXX.XX dollars for the Samsung Galaxy S8 PLUS Midnight Black, 64GB, you authorize blah blah". I'm sitting here thinking its the same price the day i ordered it.... my dumbass got the Plus size the whole time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] sf103100:
not sure ( i haven't followed this thread ) just figured someone would like to know ( btw on previously pre-order i only got tracking)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] EVOme:
No tracking from Tmo.

UPS site : There are no shipments currently in transit to your delivery address.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] mweinbach:
I have both.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] PDXMatt:
I think if it's JOD they send you a PDF that has the IMEI on it to sign.

I'm not positive because I am old Jump!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] cbutters:
I've got no shipment notification from T-mobile, but I see my package in the UPS system via UPS mychoice. (no movement yet of course)

Got everything.. Text, card charge, tracking email and imei. At this point just waiting on UPS so prob delivery Monday or Tuesday.

Got my Spigen Ultra Hybrid case..and look at how the S8 compares to my OnePlus 3..so thin and about the same length

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Nonbiasedhippo:

No i did not , i was charged but thats it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] Nonbiasedhippo:
Lady on the phone told me that orders through Samsung will be delivered on 4/20. I was charged right away when I ordered.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] andyshannon3:
But maybe there is another number other than your tracking number, which allows you to find out where your package is at any time, and you can put into a website to find out that kind of info???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] siggystyle:
Only through Samsung Pay if Pre-Ordering throught them directly (I believe)... Tmobile preorders must submit info through the the Samsung Promotions website (per my previous experiences and submissions anyway)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] jer21:
You just described a tracking number. The tracking number will give you these kind of updates, but if you have nothing but 'Ready for UPS' or just no updates in general, then it's just that - nothing is happening with your package. It's sitting there waiting for something to happen to it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] siggystyle:
I agree with this... Although I believe that they may just not allow the links to be active (until maybe the day of, or one day prior to the official launch day) or not allow the completion of the submission process, so that all carriers get the opportunity to take advantage of the promotion... That said, ordering from Samsung directly will have the obvious advantage (they just have to click the promo link for immersive bundle during their pre-order, or are automatically submitted for the VR headset)... Due to carriers'shipping procedures and timing, it is the only real way that I can see, that would be fair to all (again, outside of Sammie pre-orders, but I think they reserve that right, and should have it as well)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] andyshannon3:
You are sharp and have an excellent sense of humor!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] adamj546:
There is a reference number that use to be your phone number but it is not this time. As far as I know there is no way to locate the reference number.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discuss] jer21:
On your tracking - it actually says Origin Scan: Left for Facility/Out for Delivery? If it just says Ready for UPS that means UPS doesn't even have it yet.

If you have a device with Amazon offers your bootloader will not be unlockable.
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] t0astm0nkey:
Is there a way around this? Can you pay amazon to get the unlock?
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] slaytanic:
You pay them an extra $60 at purchase :). Buying it locked from what I'm understanding, means that by any official means, it's stuck that way. It would have to be unlocked by one of the awesome xda devs finding a way to do it unofficially.

Warranty is void! And it cannot be restored even if you relock the bootloader.

[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] Dahenjo:
I can confirm that it definitely worked on my XT1687 (60GB/4GB) $299 US model (not the Amazon no-ads model). This is Motorola's basic unlocking procedure and the same one that I used to unlock my Moto X Pure (2015) successfully too.

The video in this post of the 'How to Root Moto G5 Plus' thread clearly shows every step of this unlocking procedure, but then if you go on to root I'd suggest instead using the latest 'SuperSu rooting method' in that same thread, rather than the Magisk method in the video which was before someone had figured out SuperSU.

There's also this video on removing the Unlocked bootloader warning you'll get on every boot after unlocking.
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] mchype:
This is good to hear, thank you for the confirmation. Much appreciated.
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] swub1:
For how long & If I paid to remove the Amazon offers would they then let me unlock the bootloader? I don't mind the ads just want root so I can use Titanium to backup my entire device and flash custom ROM.

Just wondering...
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] MacFett:
I couldn't say. As soon as I got the notice that my device could not have the bootloader unlocked I returned it. I didn't care about the ads either, I too just wanted root.

You had to pay the full price for the retail phone... Getting and Amazon prime phone is pretty well know that they're not unlockable

Enviado desde mi Moto G (5) Plus mediante Tapatalk
[Moto G5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion] jbardi:
Never. Even paying to remove ads will not allow you to unlock the bootloader. The unlocking is done through Lenovo, and Amazon is not going to tell Lenovo to add your phone to some special list that can now be unlocked. It's just money in Amazon's pocket. So no way around it, you are permenantly locked. You should have returned it for the no-ads version instead of wasting money paying to remove the ads and still having an unrootable phone.
