T-Mobile: iPhone 6S/6S Plus Pre-Order Thread:

PJnuckingfuts said:
Totally unacceptable!! I'd like to punch the T-Mobile and UPS people responsible for this damage to my phone box in the throat. And the letter says to get a credit with Jump trade in you must used the enclosed bag, which wasn't enclosed, only a sticker label. And the bag is wretched and I'll show you the bottom half, not the top because it has personal info, but that half was twice as bad. Such a disgrace. Sprint and Apple ALWAYS put them in boxes, and I even asked the rep this time about that and he assured me it will be double boxed. Yeah, blow it out your a**! Wait until I get ahold of T-mobile. Guarantee you I'll get at least a $50 credit for this.

Guys, I will use mine in another country, I know the T-mobile device's lte bands fits with the country but don't know how to activate the iPhone. Should I activate with the t-mobile sim card that given with phone or should I wait to go this foreign country to activate phone with their carriers' sim cards?

You have to unlock it first and t-mobile will only unlock it if you use it for 30 days on their system and it has to be paid off. If you didn't do that I'm not sure how you plan to tell it unlocked.

I bought it from Apple.com. So it should be unlocked already AFAIK.
 
Got the T-Mobile 6s from Apple Store, received the a1688.

Received it, popped my international carrier SIM and was automatically unlocked.

Handy little features in the notes app on the 6S+

Different writing utensils and a ruler. Pretty neat.

My driver required a Sig for the package.

Wow, ok, I stand corrected. Many other forum members reported that no sig was required when shipped from T-Mobile. You're the first one we've heard of that requires a sig. Thanks for updating us.
 
To everyone complaining about getting your phone delivered in a bag, if Tmobile had to package these in boxes you probably wouldn't be getting your device on launch day.
 
I believe UPS still flies on Saturday, they just won't deliver packages to houses Saturday if it is not marked for Saturday delivery.

It's up to the driver. So some will and some won't. T-Mobile does not require it.

Now off to set up the new phone. One thing I found already is that the sim trays are different between the 6+ and the 6S+.

Sorry about that. My post was written wrong and came across wrong. My apologies. Headed back up there to correct myself.

No worries, man. I usually do a few searches before posting, but it would be crazy to dig through the 257 pages of this thread for the answer. Now that tdar says he needed a signature for the delivery, it looks like a case by case basis. I'll update here when I receive mine.
 
My driver have yet to deliver my phone which means one of two things being that I live in nyc it's a delay cause of the Pope being here or its my regular driver and he comes in the evening.
