Just got the phone and am going through setup as a new device. I get to the "Apple ID" sign-in page for iCloud, type in my credentials, click "Next", the screen flickers, but then right back to the same sign-in page. Have verified my email address and retyped my password 3 times.

What gives?
[doublepost=1509744169][/doublepost]Apparently this is what happens if you don't have network access when trying to log in. An error message would have been nice.
[doublepost=1509744245][/doublepost]And now getting "Could Not Sign In" -- "A server problem is blocking Apple ID sign in. Try signing in later."

Anyone else seeing this?
 
I would guess the login/auth servers are getting pretty hammered right now. It'll work, just be patient with it. 🙂
 
Finally got through after connecting to wifi. I might have a problem with the cellular connection.
