Just out of curiosity I’ve been in this thread all week and coming from my Tmobile 6+ Pre-order horror story and my 7+ mid December horror, I am very surprised at the level of ease that this has been. Does anybody know if Verizon, AT&T are also getting the same about of love??

You can just your own SIM card from the 6s+. I like to leave my new SIM cards around in case i need a new one or family member does.

So I’m having a lot of action today. Card charged. T-Mobile status to shipped. Tracking# generated. And now I have my first status from UPS saying the order was processed. Not sure what this means but my estimated delivery still says for tomorrow. So we will see.

Dumb question, but the SIM cards usually comes preinstalled inside the devices, correct?
No, the SIM cards are not pre-installed. They provide the instrument needed to change your SIM card but the card itself is not inside the phone when it arrives.

For SoCal,

Ontario Intl services San Bernardino and Riverside Counties - the CC is located in Riverside.

LAX will service LA and Orange Counties - the CC is located in LA.

Orders will be separated at their respective Customer Centers.

In regards of FlightAware, view departures from Louisville Intl (I posted the link a few pages back) First, only flights marked UPSxxxx are UPS fleet. Second, find the flight destination that is closest to your location. Last, find the flight departure time of those specific flights that coincides with your departure scan via UPS tracking. Like I mentioned, they won't be exact but within a few minutes from each other (consider the time the plane taxis on the runway before taking off)


I live in LA and my UPS just updated that it arrived in Ontario, CA, not LAX

Relax and enjoy the phone the way it was intended for a day or two before you horribly disfigured it with that tank case. Lol. My point. Cheer up u getting the X on launch day!

Bring a recent utility bill with new address
Lol that’s true, I drop my phone like two times a day though. I’m off Saturday so I’ll be home until the case comes so I’ll just use it anyways since it will be in the house.
[doublepost=1509667164][/doublepost]My phone is about three hours away from me right now.
