[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] stu5797:
Saw the price dropped $100 to $599.99!

I wrote the a message asking to credit my card the difference. Hope they will and not make things too difficult
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] Your-Android.de:
And the 128GB variant is at 605.99$ now :(
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] t-mizzle:
That's just the way it is with early adoption and preorders. Consider yourselves lucky, you should have seen the prices some units have sold for on ebay. Or how bad the scalping will get with the iphone x...
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] kcc1982:
Thank you Mr DHL person.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] stu5797:
Wow! Did you have much tracking info from DHL or did it just show up? Where did you buy it from?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] kcc1982:
That's the strange part. I got a text message from DHL Express with tracking info and all. Followed it all the way to the door. Never knew they did that. I got it from eBay with a mountain of eBay bucks. Seller threw in a case and screen protector. I hope the OEM case is in there. My Mix shattered when we preparing for hurricane Irma and I needed a phone. Was waiting to see the pixel 2 XL but that price point scared me off from the leak.

Ok turned it on and so far it has Android 7 but with miui 8 instead on 9. Odd....
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] t-mizzle:
You get back in this thread, you hear me :laugh:

Who am I kidding, that guy is gone, at least for a while.

Have to be honest here, I felt some serious envy seeing the picture. Envy everyone that has a tracking number already.

My reseller seems to be a zen dude, living in harmony with his environment, kissing butterflies, talking to animals, helping old ladies cross busy streets... Shipping the phone out to the eagerly awaiting customer? Nah, that would interfere his chill lifestyle.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] kcc1982:
Still here. Waiting for the global ROM to be released and some better cases to protect the screen.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] t-mizzle:
Did some serious waffling last night. While I got a really good deal from the reseller, they were dragging their feet with shipping out the phone. Woke up in the middle of the night, couldn't fall asleep again and got online. Saw the flash sale for the original mix for $405 with just under an hour left, emailed the reseller and told him to cancel the order if the phone hasn't shipped out. I knew that they were online due to time zone difference, I was just waiting for the reply before I would jump on the original mix deal. I am still on the OPO so even the original mix would have been quite an upgrade. I guess I gave the reseller a scare by mentioning cancellation, they upgraded my shipping to DHL. They gave me the tracking number implying the phone was already on the way but I'm under the impression they made a quick run to the nearest DHL after my email.

Anyway, I guess I'm receiving the mix 2 soon enough.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] stu5797:
Just got mine a few minutes ago. DHL is awesome
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] 3473:
Did the tracking number show updates or did the phone just randomly arrive? Mine still says it hasn't been picked up :/
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] stu5797:
There are lots of tracking updates. It takes a few days to get picked up by DHL. Once it gets picked up by DHL things happen fast.

On another note. I am having a problem unlocking my phone as it's harder than I thought. Maybe I'm not good at following directions but this Chinese language in here also makes things difficult
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] superior888:
But isn't english included in the chinese rom?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] stu5797:
The xiaomi website still has some Chinese even though I pick English as the language. There's also a good amount of Chinese on the phone even though you pick English.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] superior888:
Oh, i must be tired. i thought you meant unlocking the phone like pincode or so :silly::eek:

Alright, you'll solve it soon :) I already downloaded the mi-unlock and ready to go when it arrives :P
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] stu5797:
Seems like it cant be unlocked in the USA without a chinese VPN. UGH!!!!!!!!!!!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] stu5797:
It says ""The number of IP requests you have exceeded error" on miui.com/unlock
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 Questions & Answers] charlatan01:
Ugh, this might be bad news. I am sooo close to buying this phone, but the BL unlock is almost a necessity I think... should you want to flash a different region firmware / ROM, right?
[Micromax A120 Canvas 2 Colors] florfilla19:
Hi all,

Actually, running the Miui 8 (6.10.13 New 6) but still laggy in game

Wich rom do you recommend to avoid lags ? I love the miui one from tulupovden

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
Anyone get any confirmation on it yet. I'm having a lot of stupid obvious issues....like no IMEI #/no date.blah.blah stuff...and yes I submitted everything properly

I have had to call twice already and they say it approved but emails say denied.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] donosaur:
I am having a similar issue. It says the date of purchase is not on the receipt but it is clearly on there. I am not sure what their deal is. I haven't called yet but I am expecting to be screwed out of the projector mod in the end.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] filthyfnj24:
It went through for me. I received a confirmation email from Motorola. I've had three Z2s but this is the only one I've submitted. I'm using the Sprint model purchased from Best Buy.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] slaytanic:
Mine has been received, but not validated yet
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] jerrycoffman45:
had the same thing i called and found out you have to wait till you have had the phone activated for 14 days before you can submit your application for the premotion
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] donosaur:
That makes sense, I submitted 8 days after purchase. Were you able to resubmit and get approved?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] jerrycoffman45:
I can till next Tuesday they said that they would resubmit it for me but I don't trust them that much so I will do it myself
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
There processing is driving me crazy... They are lucky the darn mod is awesome...lol
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] swcunn:
Mod Promo

Mine has been received and validated. Waiting for shipping confirmation.

Update:

I got a your package has been shipped email with a tracking #. But when I checked the tracking # on the Fedex website it said that the shipment was cancelled by the shipper. Now waiting for a reply from Motorola.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] ickster:
I too am having issues. Free projector was what knocked off the fence on buying this phone. So I got rejected and the reason given was something to the effect of wrong item chosen. Called 800 number and they could not tell me why rebate was denied. Opened a ticket in the online help and received a quick reply. But he could not tell me why either. Luckily I had mentioned that I had not yet activated the phone to my number. His first reply to my inquiry said something about having to activate phone to receive rebate. Sent a reply (AND resubmitted exact same paperwork) in which I asked four questions INCLUDING WTH was up with being required to activate phone. It does not mention that at all in the terms. Never heard back. Sent several messages without any more responses. Finally a week later I called again. Really raised hell . She had no idea why I was rejected. But did tell me that the requirement to activate phone was a T Mobile one. I called BS. Ordered rebate from Motorola and it was their terms online. Never got a clear answer. Last thing she said was pretty much that my re-submittal would be processed when it was processed. Hung up pretty pissed off.

But she did give me an email address for corporate. Blasted them a message complaining about my experience. Got a reply that day telling me I was approved for the rebate. "Please wait the original 4-6 weeks". Pretty sad experience.

I did check link again and the reason for the denial had been changed to wrong paperwork submitted. Which was not at all the case.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] souldrainer2021:
I had no issues with mine, just hope it doesnt take the 4-6 weeks and comes sooner instead. that's a long time to wait...
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
My third attempt finally got approved(by email confirmation) after multiple calls to Moto.

Might make out on all the hassle because I now have 2 different tracking IDs that say mailed. I think they may have messed up my first attempt because I called and went off when it got declined and I made them manually fix it..but never got any type of confirmation and was told to resubmit by a different administrator.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] hawkye:
T-Mobile told me getting the phone on JUMP was eligible for the promo. I get the phone, submit the paperwork, and don't hear anything until the denial came in the mail. It said the model wasn't eligible for promo. I was pissed. I contacted Moto and they said leased phones aren't eligible. Total BS! It shouldn't matter to Moto how I bought the phone. I will never fall for a Moto Promo again.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] slaytanic:
It makes no sense that leased phones wouldn't be eligible, because that's basically the only way to get a phone through Sprint, and we're advertising the promotion as well.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] hawkye:
That is exactly what I told them. It is still a sale for Moto and it brings a new Moto customer. I bought a couple mods already and now I wish I would have waited. I have never been turned down for multiple Samsung promos. I might just give my Moto to my kid and grab the Note 8 with the 360 Camera instead.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
Finally got a shipment tracking number!!
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
On 9/11 mine was received. Waiting for the validation. Might be a while I bought it on 9/11 so gotta wait those 14 days
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Sinterion:
I got mine today, it really heats the phone up, even with the brightness turned down
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] DreamCrusher:
Just curious. When did you submit your claim? I submitted mine on 8/13 and my status still only states "Received".
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
Got mine today. My last submit was 9/11 and after validation it should be there within two weeks. FedEx delivery was pretty quick
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Sinterion:
I put mine in right when I got it 8/11, took about a week before it shipped to actually say approved
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Shaffer678:
I got mine Tuesday I love it! It sure eats through some battery though
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
At 15 days from when I bought it and submitted it. Still waiting to be validated
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Flash728:
My original submission got denied because "wrong item purchased" when I called I was told, "WTH, that don't make sense." Then I was asked to email him my paperwork and it got approved and now I got my shipping confirmation. Now I just gotta wait to get it. Does anyone know if it's exactly the same as a retail model or if it's a cheapened version?
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TehKing:
It seems to take Moto/Lenovo forever, in some cases, to get these approved.

I submitted my info on 8/19 via the https://motorola.rewardpromo.com website, and it was approved on 9/26. I'm now waiting for shipment notification.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] ickster:
So I wonder how many people were denied and didn't think to complain? I had not taken note of exactly what it said (they changed the reason later) when mine was denied but knew it said wrong item. The fact I wasn't the only one denied for no reason says a lot IMO.

That said it did ultimately arrive within the original 4-6 weeks.

If Motorola had a feedback system like ebay they would be gettin' a definite negative from me.

But it really is a sweet little unit that works real well. Give it an A+

Freebie!

Side note, I'm a little ticked off that the price went down, on a newly released phone, $200. less than 30 days after purchase. Called and complained to no avail. I feel like a 30 day price guarantee isn't much to ask for.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Submitted my Sprint "lease" (where you pay the phone off over 18 mos and can choose to keep or trade in). and got verified and approved email today. submitted on 9/10.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
Mine came in yesterday. Someone stole my phone a few days before that. Kind of glad it was my Z and not my Note that day.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
Did mine on 9/11and got that today to. So looks like they approve in batches and ship in batches.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
They have been all over the place with the promo...but for a 200/300 dollar goodie it's not all that bad to deal with.

On another note.... I had the first zforce and a projector with it and sold it all to try the s8. After using the z2 force and the new projector​ it handles battery consumption alot better
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] TehKing:
Got notification my projector was shipped today. I'll have it Wednesday.

Time line:

Bought and info submitted: August 19

Approval notification: September 26

Shipment notification: October 2
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] DreamCrusher:
Same thing here. Submitted on 08/13. Validated on 09/26 and Mailed on 10/2. Expected delivery is 10/6.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] DsturbD:
wow, over a month to get approval? yikes! i submitted mine on 9/23, probably will get it close to thanksgiving :mad:
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
It depends on what batch you're in. I did mine on 09/10 and got approval on 09/28. So roughly two and a half weeks for mine.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
Mine is shipping.

FedEx shows label was created in Chicago. I'm in Michigan so should be here pretty quick. I expect it to ship tomorrow and should be here on Monday. But if it shipped today should be here Friday.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Got notification as well. Checked FedEx tracking number. For reference on anyone submitting a mod promo:

Submitted: 09/10

Approved: 09/28

Shipping: 10/04

Shipped: (ETA through FedEx) 10/09.

Essentially within a month depending on your batch. Attached is image of FedEx...

So...I'm kinda angry..but not so worried.. mine has an ever so slightly bend in the platform. I wonder how it would be to get it replaced or am I just being an a#$.... Doesn't affect how it works but if I set it on a flat surface it does rock a little...

Anyone else have any super miner defects??
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
My ETA is showing today.when I get home I'll post if I got it. I don't think it will be here that fast tho.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
Nothing. So don't expect to get it on that date. Chances are they have not been shipped yet prob sitting on a dock.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] DsturbD:
Is there a gap between it and the phone?

Promo still going for T-mobile

I bought a T-mobile version on 9/29/207 online because I was cheap and did not want to pay the $20 store upgrade extra. I may have paid extra just to get the promo but did a bit of research and found that the promo still goes till the end of October for T-mobile customers by following links via the Motorola website. There was no store manager willing to wave the $20 so I took the chance to order it online, especially seeing that there have been reports of people having trouble with Motorola having them jump through extra hoops and some not getting it.

I received my phone two days ago and was able to still access the promotion.

I thought I would post this because it is a good deal with the phone only being $500 through T-mobile and still being able to get the promotion.

This phone is awesome by the way and exceeds my expectations. I do not know if I would have gone for it in a much higher price bracket, even with the promo, as I cannot see myself using the projector except as a novelty. However, I am hooked on thinking and hoping for functional future mods like the car dock, and wireless battery pack and maybe an upgraded zoom camera or physical keyboard being part of a battery etc. Reading reviews I think it would have been received much more favorably if the price was not so high to start with.

Happy to be part of the community.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
The promotion ends Oct 31 for T-Mobile. You got nothing to worry about.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] DsturbD:
yeah that was cool to find that out. my wife is out of town and i think she will want this phone once she sees it. dont know what we would do with 2 projectors though? maybe i can find someone with the Hasselblad mod that wants to trade :)
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
Chances are they already have the projector already. Though having two isn't a bad idea. You can watch more shows before the battery runs out and actually starts using your phone battery.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] DsturbD:
well thats true :)
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] X_man.:
So question. I submitted mine yesterday. Today around lunchtime my tracking updated to "Received" Does that mean everything is in order of do I have to wait for "Validation" for that? Reason I ask is seems like lots of people had problems getting through the first step.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] DsturbD:
I submitted mine and it was received the same day, Sept 23. Has not been validated yet. Received just means they got what you submitted
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] X_man.:
Ok thanks. That's what I figured. I was just wondering because I have talked to a guy that said he got an email saying there was a problem with his credentials before the tracking ever had a chance to update. Just wishful thinking that I had a foot in the door so to speak LOL
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
Bought my phone on 9/11 and submitted then. And it just came today.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
At work in a door room put up about a 143inch picture and it looked great. Would of gone bigger but the room was to small.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] DsturbD:
Just got an email that said my submission is valid. Cool deal. Hope it ships soon!

---------- Post added at 02:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:07 AM ----------

That's impressive
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
Yeah I was surprised. For the size it's a nice little projecter
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Yes, it's pretty good quality for it's size. I watched a quick 30 min video off the charger and the mod went from 100% to 64% my phone's battery didn't drain much at all though due to screen being off. So if you're planning on watching a movie on it, I suggest plugging it into the wall.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] bignazpwns:
Yeah update let's the charger on the mod charge the phone to. So that frees up the phone's usb port for the dongle for the headphone jack for a speaker.

50lum was a good choice. 100 would be useless as the battery would drain way to fast. Step up from the Galaxy beam that used a 15lum led and was useless
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Possibly... Screenshots with timestamps... Just keep it plugged in, lol.

Edit: phone actually went up 1% so it does charge the phone as well...
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] X_man.:
Ok check this out guys. So I submitted mine on Tue 10/10 and as soon as I sent it I realize I sent the wrong paper for what I thought was the receipt. What I sent was an order summery, which had almost all the same info but did not have a purchase date. So I called to try to remedy the situation. I got a ticket number and was told I would hear from someone in the promotions department within 3 days. So this morning I see that my order status is saying “Non-compliant” Reason is “Big surprise” No purchase date on proof of purchase. I check my email and its saying for me to submit everything again “Pretty much start over”. So I called and gave the rep my story and ticket number and she transfers me to the promotions department manager “Who was very nice btw” I told him the whole spill and I very politely said considering the circumstances I don’t feel I should have to start over because I tried to fix it when it happened. He said I was absolutely right and told me he would personally send me an email and if I would send him the correct receipt, he would see to it that I hear something back in 3 to 5 days. Now keep in mind this is all within 3-4 days! If this goes off without a hitch this will be the fastest I have heard of anybody being approved. Here’s hoping! :D
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] DsturbD:
good luck to you!
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] X_man.:
Thanks! I just got an email back from the guy telling me everything looked in order and that I should hear something official in 5 days or less. :)
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] wshader:
Well looks like they just another wave of acceptances, got my email yesterday. Hopefully ships this week
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] wfellis:
It took me two submissions because it appears the ocr that was reading the receipt wasn't able to pick up the purchase date. I then had to call them 2 times to ask what was wrong. I have a "ready to ship" it took 4-5 weeks to sort this out.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] noXcape:
Basically the same thing I went thru.... Sure was aggravating. But in the end it's worth it. I'm about to purchase a portable pull down screen 100" for 40 bucks on Amazon
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] mrcodylindsey:
I got approval on October 7 and submitted in general on September 30th. Anyone think contacting Motorola would speed up the process at all? I mean 4-6 weeks to mail it?? Wtf Motorola that's ridiculous. We're all gonna be sitting around then randomly receive a package and have completely forgotten it was even coming from how slow Motorola is handling the approval and mailing process. Lol
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
Check the FedEx tracking number. I got mine in a week and a half.
