By the way, you won't need to set up your iPhone as new. After I selected "restore from iCloud backup," it began to update to iOS 10.0.2 before doing anything else.
Yes I just noticed that. Finally they did that!!!! That home button is great! Too bad they just didn't get rid of it but I still have about 35 minutes of iCloud backup.

okay, you just got my heart to start beating... I ordered exact same phone on 9/24, original date of 11/4-11/11. Little over a week apart from you... 1-2 weeks more and light should shed...
Backorder is great!!! Because att has their stuff backwards.

Mine just went to back ordered status on *6737#. The website still says preparing to ship. Original dates are Oct 20 - Oct 27, these haven't changed.

7+ MB 128GB, ordered 9/15 @ 11AM Central

You have given me hope! I ordered the exact same thing at 10:45am on the 15th. New AT&T customer so can't use the *6737# method. Here's hoping for shipping info soon.

For some reason it screwed up for me, basically set itself up with default settings. I had to erase all content and settings and start over (but don't have to update the iOS this time around).

However, before I did that, I did download a game from the App Store from my 6S Plus that I wanted to try out. It transferred to my new phone and when I opened it up, it wouldn't let me out of the app, no matter what I did! It eventually went away, but during that time my phone got pretty hot. I'm not too concerned about that since my iPhones in the past have gotten hot before but didn't do any damage. So far there hasn't been any hissing noises, but it's still too early to tell! I don't even want to take the plastic wrapping off of the phone! I lifted the part over the "home" button so I could set up my Touch ID, but other than that, the wrap will stay on for tonight. Haha... :p

As of right now, it says I have less than a 36-minute wait for my iCloud to restore everything.

The JB is a slippery little thing though, as I recall someone else mentioning in here!

I wanted to use my old clear case from my 6 Plus, but the camera cut out would only expose the lenses and cover the flash. Still considering getting a different case than the one I am using on my 6S Plus (which I am using right now as I type this).
 
Am I missing a setting because my passwords to my credit card apps never come over to the new phone. I know the keychain works on the web but I use the apps. Sorry I put this in this thread

Silicon + Golden Retriever fur = Furry disaster for my case. I know that Apple's cases are nice, but to me they are pretty plain looking. Plus I find them to be a little expensive for my taste.

All of my favorite cases, aside from my Mophie battery case that I used for my iPhone 4 and 4S, tended to be fairly inexpensive (or sometimes free).

Shortly after I got my 6 Plus, AT&T allowed me to get a free case (up to $30.00). Although it was mainly gold with black rubberized sides (gold would have not been my first choice for its color), it was the only one that had a kickstand and had some grip to it.

I agree they are expensive. No doubt. They saw me coming. Lol. I'm still trying to remember passwords for apps since I always use the touch id
 
Ordered my 7 plus 32 GB matte black on 9/17. Haven't seen any movement on the order page since the order was placed. Shipping dates haven't changed.. 10/14-10/21. Girlfriend ordered the same phone exactly a week before with shipping dates of 10/7-10/14. She got hers about a week ago. Anyone seeing any movement with these shipping dates? I'll be in Toronto on holiday during that time so I'm hoping I get it even a day before the dates estimated...

Im still waiting.. hoping to get it early like others as well

Passwords and Usernames so much info to reattach everywhere... I dont see how some people upgrade every year
 
So how's the Jet Black. Worth the the wait I hope!

It's awesome! Very stunning in person (versus pictures).

My only gripe at the moment is that it gets hot easily. As I posted earlier, all of my Apple devices tend to get heated at times, especially when it's running a lot of processes at once.

However, it makes sense since that it would be hot because I am currently in the process of reinstalling all of my apps from my iCloud backup.

Once I finish that, I have to sync my Apple Watch to my new iPhone and then backup my phone and archive it to iTunes so I can eventually put iOS 10.1 (public beta) on it.

I also have to re-download iTunes -- hate that program... Caused me to lose all of my songs before and it always seems to take up a lot of memory and slows my computers down. :(

I Seriously can't work during the day because all i do is either check this forum to see if there are any useful info or keep dialing *6737# 10 times a day... I've got better things to do but this damn Apple's supply and demand on their new releases frustrates me every year!!!
I had to take a break from both, this site and dialing.. Ill be like you know what just forget it, Im not checking anymore and Ill make it about an hour and Im back at it..lol Today I did good I think I came on here once this morning and now and I dailed maybe 4 times today..str8 torture

FYI, ordered one MB and one RG 128gb plus on Sept. 17 and both went back order tonight. The MB had a 10-21 to 10-28 ship window and the RG had a 11-4 to 11-11 window. It says the items (plural) are currently on back order, I'm assuming that means they will both ship, at least I hope so.
