Yep, I really hate touchwiz but you lose a lot going to a vanilla rom. I did have some debloated touchwiz roms that ran okay. I liked the moto x for the fact that moto updated very quickly and the phone was designed to enhance pure android rather than skinning it completely. I'm curious, did you get the 6 or 6+? I really went back and forth on this one. Note3 was just too big for me but 4.7 seemed a tad small. The M8/S5 are close to perfect sizes to me.

Considering 6+ is slightly skinnier than Note 3, I think 6+ will suit me well. If Note 3 feels too big for you, then I'm not sure.
 
Logged in to TMo from Chrome and saw 'Pre-order' as the status. Logged in from FireFox and saw 'Backordered' as the status....lol

I was more worried about the length. All my pants, jeans, suits are quite... slim :D. G3 would be my limit it seems. Damn those bezels!


Yep , no more details here and hoping some a surprise email tonight while at work... if so , need to get that thing held at the local ups ...

I forgot that was a possibility. If you have it held, it's possible to pick it up early in the morning? Now I'm a little excited if I can pick it up before I go out of town. However, the wifey will not be...
 
Ok guys my final update, hope it helps.

I ordered 530pst 730am central over the phone no jump just regular eip. Tmobile online says preorderd with a pink check, but underneath says back ordered. I can pull it up on ups reference, but not with my choice.

I called ups this morning because i could not change address online. The lady told me that tmobile put a block on all address changes, but I could pick up tomorrow am at the ups center downtown Austin. She also said the phone was picked up today and would be on a plane to austin this afternoon for tomorrow delivery/pickup.
 
Hey guys! My phones are on their way, but T-Mobile already ported my numbers (my gf and I are switching from Verizon), so now I don't have any phone service until they arrive! Stay tuned...
 
I'm just heading to the store in the morning. If they have the phone I want, I'm going to cancel my order right then and there and then buy that one. First the wrong shipping addy, then misinformation...I need to be medicated.

I went with the 6. The battery was my #1 concern and early tests and hands on are saying it is great on the normal 6. For me the 6+ wasnt too big, my issues came down to the display scaling not a fan of what they did there.

Otherwise the final determination for me was that I knew I would love the 4.7" model. I had an HTC One M7 and the size is perfect and its almost identical to the iPhone except thicker. I was taking a chance on if I loved the + and it wasnt a chance I wanted to take.
 
Quick FYI for everyone:

In addition to my T-Mobile order, I also ordered an iPhone 6 directly from Apple AND another directly from AT&T early Friday morning.

The AT&T order has no tracking info or label created as of yet

The Apple order had a label created on 9/15 but there has been no activity since, and the order has not yet been collected from its point of origin.

So not having a tracking label yet means nothing!

When's your att coming?
 
Called T Mobile because my page still shows backordered even though I got the text and email saying friday night. Woman I talked to said "well since it says backordered you should get it in 1-4 weeks" so I had her transfer to her supervisor who now has me on hold because when I told her about all orders being upgraded to overnight shipping she told me she knew nothing about that:confused:

I'm sure most devs will eventually update their apps to 3x rather than leave it scaled? At least major ones anyway.

online chat rep told me they couldn't upgrade so let me know what they say, if the chat rep was right my phone is ready to ship but I have ground shipping...

Does it say pre-ordered or back ordered where the pink check mark is?
 
Well...

I just talked to customer service and they told me they decided they aren't getting the iPhone 6 at all. Damn. I'm so dissapointed. :(

(May or may not be sarcasm)
 
So...my order status is in the bottom signature. Here's my question for those of you out there reading: Who like me used a Jump upgrade (Not Jump customers with non-upgrade but new EIP, ACTUAL Jump upgrades) who ordered a 6+ Space Gray 64GB? If so when did you order, and when will you receive?

My issue is that I ordered the second the online system came back up, before even the stores were open Friday morning here on the West Coast. (9:07AM) I paid for overnight shipping, got a confirmed date of 9/20 for delivery, shipping 9/19 (release batch from what I've been told by reps) and now I've been told 9/22-30th. It just seems to me that in reality there is no rhyme or reason to anything TMo is saying. No Jump priority or the like.
 
online chat rep told me they couldn't upgrade so let me know what they say, if the chat rep was right my phone is ready to ship but I have ground shipping...

yeah I'll let you know what she says

back ordered, but she just told me thats because the phone hasnt been released yet and itll change at 12:01 AM. Who knows if thats true though.
