If anyone sees a intrest in this then let me know and I will do everything I can to help!

Thanks to everyone for a GREAT FORUM....

Hey, that's great, thanks. I have this exact watch. I also have the Explorer II with a black face. How hard was the clock to make? I think the explorer would look better with the theme on my phone.

Aren't you using the wrong command?

Try Fastboot flash oos.zip

Or redownload (to be on the safer side)and sideload the ROM.

Or if you have TWRP, push the ROM to the phone through adb and install it via TWRP.

Hello all!

Let's chat while we wait!

I ordered mine minutes after pre-orders started. Ordered the blue!

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] pookeee:
Ordered blk for me and blue for the wife.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] zonly1:
Ordered Lilac for the wife.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Cyberguycpt:
Not going to pre order just yet. For one I don't think it's right to have to pay a down payment with JOD. I paid 0 down with the IPhone X because I was well qualified and had been with Tmobile for more that 3 years. Now they want a down payment. Uhhhh no. Also last year after the Note 8 preorders were over Samsung/Tmobile ran a promotion where if you bought the Note 8 you received 40000 Samsung rewards points which you could redeem for a $200 Samsung rewards visa.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Camwise:
Strange they're going back to a down payment up front for JOD upgrades to the + model. I had to do that with the S7 Edge, Note 7, and S8+, but then with the Note 8, V30, iPhone X there was no Down Payment for JOD, just rolled it into a higher monthly payment. LOL i didn't feel like paying the $120 so just went with the smaller s9 and in a month or two if i change my mind i'll upgrade to the s9+ and pay whatever the rate is at that time. I went with the purple since it'll be in a case and nobody will see it anyway. My wife thought it was "Pretty".
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] bamfsig45:
Yea I had the rep verify with management about the down payment and yep 120.00. So even if you’re planning on keeping till the note 9 in september that still equates to 20/mo so all in all you’re paying 50/mo. But i’m stupid and paid it anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] supercharged5:
I just bought 2 from Samsung a purple one for the wifey and black one for myself. Now just waiting for them to start shipping them out
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] SmileBigNow:
Ordered at 12:02am 1 Black S9+ for 50% off!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ugemeistro:
Same here, that's why i didn't get the iphone 8/+/X last year ($274 down) but they only wanted $120 down for the 64 gb version of the S9+. Paying $670 for the total.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] idksomuch:
I actually forgot about preorders and ended up ordering mine over 50 minutes after they went live. Order the black version. I was considering getting something other than black for the first time in a long time but didn't care for the blue or purple. I made the right choice. I went to best buy today to play with the demo units and none of the colors look that good. The blue wasn't as shiny as I thought it'd be and the purple was just...meh. The stereo speakers sounded underwhelming, maybe it was because it was in a giant store. I was hoping they would sound closer to the iPhone stereo speakers but they sounded like a single bottom firing speaker with a stereo speaker mod you'd find on XDA. We'll see when we have our actual phones though.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] lpforte:
Preordered a black s9+ while planning on selling my s8+ on Craigslist. Then I saw that even older phones get a $200 trade in credit. I have an old s6 edge laying around doh...

Going to try to cancel my preorder tomorrow and try to reorder with the trade in. I signed an eip so hopefully it's not a pain.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] VirusZer0:
It should not be an issue. I did it before because the rep put in the wrong color. They canceled and reordered even after I signed the dotted line. However, that could just be an exception because it was their error. I doubt it will be an issue though. TMO customer service is spot on. I would recommend doing it over DM with T-Mobile Help on Twitter. That's what I do for EVERYTHING. On second thought, don't. I don't want my wait times to be longer =P

JK, they are AWESOME, FAST and EFFICIENT on Twitter.

Best of Luck,

Tee Jay
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Maurylucha:
Alrighty guys im in a bit of a predicament. I want to pre order the s9+ but I don't know with either Tmobile or Samsung itself. I have an s8+ and if I trade it in with Tmobile, I end up with a $336 down and $6 a month or with Samsung it would be the rest of the full retail price of $480 or the financing of $21 a month. Tmobile is carrier locked and Samsung isn't. Or should I just sell my s8+ somewhere for more? I found a note 4 but it's blacklisted so there goes that one haha
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] vw65bus:
Not sure why everyone is being charged a down payment with the plus model. I pre ordered the blue s9 plus with zero down and 37 a month. With jump on demand.

One person mentioned the blue wasn't that great of a color hope I don't regret not getting black.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Cyberguycpt:
Blue looks great, I saw it today at best buy. Black looks kind of plain and it's a fingerprint magnet.

On day one Tmobile was charging a down payment. My guess is sells weren't that great so they came to their senses. O down payment is for well qualified and for those with more then three years with Tmobile. On day one every had to pay the $120. I knew it would change so I waited.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] blacklabel2020:
When do you all think the phone will start shipping?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] ray_longo:
I'm on JOD and I was charged with a $130 down. I asked the rep to verify with his managers. He did and came and said that whether on JOD or Finance, there is a down required. How exactly did you get it with zero down?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] vw65bus:
I ordered thru the app with a TMobile rep thru messages. The s9 was 0 down and 30 a month and s9 was 0 down and 37 a month. I chose the plus model for the extra 2 gigs of RAM. I'm trading in my iPhone x which was also 0 down and (I think) 44 a month. All I paid was device taxes of $2.54 and shipping (overnight) with a total of $26.68.

Maybe try thru the app messages next time. Maybe there more up to date with how things work. Dunno,

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Cyberguycpt:
Fyi, I would go back in to chat and ask for a bill credit for the overnight shipping. Many people have been getting free overnight shipping. I was charged at first but asked for a bill credit and it was approved and applied within minutes.

How do you have the chat option on your Android T-Mobile App?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Camwise:
Originally ordered the s9 because i didn't want to pay the $120 down. After finding out today about the change to their JOD policy where if you're well qualified and a customer of 3+ years you can get $0 down on the s9+. I called their Customer Support and they had to transfer me to a supervisor, but they were able to cancel my original order(had already signed EIP) and place a new order with $0 down for the S9+. Below is a picture of my new EIP pricing.

Oh sorry I used Twitter, Tforce.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] vw65bus:
When you go to purchase something thru the app it gives you the option to message.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] idksomuch:
Seems like it isn't nearly as active this time around, at least compared to the Note8, S8, and S7. Maybe it has something to do with the S9 being a small-ish upgrade (almost identical design)? Or maybe it's because Samsung gave an actual release and shipping date this time around rather than just saying "Pre-orders will open up at this time and will begin shipping shortly or next month" and people are just waiting out the two weeks rather than obsessively checking in and refreshing UPS, lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Samzebian:
I pre-ordered blue the day of preorders, had a black s8+ and note 8, needed something different.

When business customer care put my preorder in, I wanted to pay with my debit card. Instead, she billed to our business account, I got so upset after telling the rep what I wanted to pay with, she gave me a $100 credit, so I guess that negates most of the $120 charge. Well, that and I am using my $700 BOGO card from my wife and my iphone to pay off the rest of the phone too!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Maurylucha:
Ended up getting the s9+ black with T-Mobile. They told me if I had waited till the 27th of this month I would've qualified to get the s9+ with no down. But I didn't wanna wait (yea I'm that guy) so I paid the down and im going to sell my s8 + with the gear vr and Bluetooth earphones to make my money back and then some ?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Babydollll:
I ordered my S9+ (black) on EIP and took them up on the 50% off with eligible trade in. I traded in my LG V30+ and will have a monthly payment of $15 instead of $30 a month. I had to pay $120 down because it's EIP and not jump, but my bill will actually go down a bit, since it'll be $15 a month and not $30 (what I was paying for the V30+)

I'm saving my JoD for the Note9 since my Note8 is leased.

I got free overnight shipping as well. I wasn't gonna get it at first, but I couldn't pass up the 50% off deal.... Plus I am bored with the V30+
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
Ordered a LilacPurple model this evening via TeleSales on JOD, was gonna pass until I came across the news of $0 Down & $37.xx/mo.

Charged! Is happening guys, maybe receiving on Sunday or Monday, don't forget you can look up shipping details by reference number on ups, normally putting your cell phone as reference number shows the shipping coming to you.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] MadHatter01:
Same here. Charged this morning. I would love it Monday, but in the past they have always charged a few days early it seems.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Camwise:
Why not use the JOD from the Note 8 to get the S9+, and then again trade in your S9+ to swap to Note 9.... That's the greatest part about JOD is that we can swap phones every 30 days now.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Babydollll:
Yeah, but I wanted to get rid of the V30+ and I DON'T want to give up my S Pen for 6 months (or so)

I'd rather keep the Note8 AND get the S9+ instead of keeping the V30+

TL;DR not using JoD with the Note8 to switch to S9+ because no S Pen.

I'm guessing I'll have mine Monday. Flight aware shows the flight to my closest airport lands at around 5am (-6 US Central Time), I highly doubt it'll fly into Memphis (also an airport used by UPS for my area at times) that flight lands at around 11pm tonight...

Either way it's looking like Monday (I'm hoping anyway)

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] VirusZer0:
Wishful thinking! Do you have origin scan?

I've preordered the last several Samsung devices, all with overnight shipping. Usually sits in Ready for UPS status for at least 2 days before I get an origin scan. I live in Pittsburgh myself.

Best of luck, to all of us!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Babydollll:
Not yet, but I reckon the origin scan will show up either when UPS updates or it ends up on the later flight (which means the origin scan will be sometime later tonight.

I haven't actually checked UPS in a bit I may check it again shortly.

I'll post again if I have good news [emoji16][emoji106][emoji93]

Edit:

I'm in central Mississippi BTW
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Babydollll:
No origin scan, but my order processed showed a time of 8:34pm (I'm guessing Eastern Time as I believe Kentucky is in that time zone)
