Well I finally have shipping confirmation after sitting in "Running" Status since Sunday. Never got any emails from Tmobile as of 1:30PM today.

I manually checked my cc account at 9:30AM and saw the charge. It may have been sooner though.
I manually checked my TMobile account at 1:30PM and saw shipped status. It may have been sooner.

Of course the tracking number has not scanned yet on UPS, but can't imagine anymore problems from here. Nothing really to complain about since they technically shipped on the day the estimated which was 11/2-3. I did select free overnight so expect delivery on Mon 11/6. Not too bad. My Citi fraud alert screwed everything up.

Are the T-Mobile fully paid ones unlocked?

I highly doubt it if you purchased from TMobile and here is why. How would they keep unlocked and locked phones separate? All you need is the IMEI # when you call them and request unlock. It will take up to 48 hours to go through.

On the opposite, every phone Apple sells is unlocked whether you are on the IUP or full purchase.

Mine also just receive a tracking number and shown as "shipped" in T-Mobile, the charge were there since yesterday 10am PDT after calling 3 conservative days to resolve my Chase fraud alert...I didn't select overnight but still hopeful to have it on Monday...

I did pickup my other iPX with apple iUP order earlier from the UPS CC

So if I ordered the T-Mobile one from Apple.com, paid in full, is that unlocked? That's the understanding?

I was able to get a VZW model today so a friend asked about buying the TMob sourced one (paid full priced, not on a plan) rather than me sending it back. He's on ATT though. I know the units coming direct from Apple are unlocked but something tells me the one I received is locked. Anyone know. I don't want to open the box.

Anybody find where we can show battery percentage or is that a lost feature?

It's in control center. Swipe the right top corner down. Also you can ask Siri what the bat % is.
