My phone came with 8.0 installed...I was curious to find out if any of the phones being shipped have come with iOS 8.1 installed?

I was curious if anyone that has received their phones, and have installed 8.1, noticed any issues...I am still holding out to update :)

After updating I haven't noticed any difference then again I didn't use 8.0 hardly at all so I can't say much. I thought they corrected the bugs in 8.1 immediately after all the issues were brought up
 
Wow! Will give them a call too!

Sigh, just got off the phone and they did say they had a few of the 6+ Gold 128 gig phones, but none of the other colors. Was reluctant to get just the Gold, as I am uncertain about what that would do to my order of two through Apple (one Gold one Space Grey). They were unsure of the availability of the SG or Silver at this point. Guess I'm a coward... :(

The CSR rep on the phone cancelled the order for my 64 GB 6+ when the 128 GB 6+ showed as in stock, and I placed the order.

The gold one is the unicorn!
 
I hope I get a shipping confirmation soon. I opted for the 3 day delivery. Does anyone know from experience if it's 3 days from the day it ships (i.e leaves Monday arrives Thursday) or 3 days including the day it ships?

I'm just trying to get an idea of when to expect shipment.

I really want the iPhone 6+ so bad! But based on what I am reading on here I'm afraid to order from T-Mobile it seems like they don't have the best track record for processing orders. I currently have the note 3 right now and want to try something different, I've had the 4s in the past and really enjoyed it. How is the order process now? Is the 128GB still the way to go?

From my understanding if you want anything without waiting until late Dec/Early January is going 128GB Gold or 16GB in all colors.

Ok thank you! And am I able to do this through JUMP at home? Or are you only able to use JUMP at the store?
 
My order shipped. :)


Unfortunately 8.1.1 has been released so I hope (hope hope hope!!!!) my phone comes with 8.1 or AT LEAST 8.0.2.
 
finally was able to speak to my ERT. Sending my old HTC M8 to him tomorrow and clearing my old EIP.

He billed the account so thats why i never saw a charge on my credit card

fyi, there are a few Jason on ERT. The one i was talking to was Jason Levy
 
Do you think i could ask to talk to a supervisor?

Yes, for sure. You can just ask for a supervisor, but I got transferred to one because I was being outrageous.

I wasn't being rude, I made sure, but they just kept saying they don't know when I'd be getting my phone, so I said I was told 4 to 6 weeks, its been 5 weeks, so I want a hundred dollars credited now, and for every week my phone is not here I want another hundred dollars lol. So the customer service lady said I can't do that but I can transfer you to a supervisor...and then the rest happened.

Btw, ordered 64gb black plus space gray on 10/1, today is 11/17...still no phone.
 
ordered mine on 10/29 iphone6 plus gray still no word and got the run around 2 time on the phone next i am going to go back to store this is getting old no one can give me a date at all.
 
For those of you who have received your phone can you give an idea of the timeline? Was your phone shipped shortly after your card was charged or did you still have to wait awhile?

My phone was shipped very soon after my card was charged. I was charged on a Saturday morning and I had the phone Monday afternoon.
 
I stopped by my local T-Mobile Store today, they had quite an inventory of iPhone 6 & 6 Plus models. Yesterday I asked while at the Apple Store and they also had a good inventory.

The moment your card is charged your phone will be shipped out that day or the day following, pending what part of the day it's charged. Then pending what kind of shipping you got that it could take from 24 hrs to 3-5 business days

Well my waiting game has come to an end. I just got my iPhone 6 128GB SG and iPhone 6 Plus 64GB Gold delivered.
I ordered on Oct 12, then order cancelled on Nov 8th, ordered reopen on Nov 10th. Both phones shipped out Nov 14th ground and got them Nov 19th.
Both phones came with 8.1 firmware so both are now jailbroken.

What benefits is there to jailbreaking the iPhone ?

There is movie box for watching clean copies of movies (both out now and some not yet released) and tv shows.
Activator so I have more gestures like skipping a track without taking the phone out my pocket.
There are a lot of useful things within the jailbreak community that apple does't provide.

But how stable is this pangu jailbreak? Really don't wanna deal with crashes, over heating and battery drain

I have moviebox right now without jailbreak although it will eventually stop working and i have to go find another version that works
