Anyone with an Ultra 2 using the new Modular watch face able to get weather to pull up correctly? When I try to enter my location nothing happens.
Ugh. UPS is running so behind. I was supposed to receive it by 4pm and I’m still waiting. The UPS truck is down the street.
Sorry but no not really. Apple paid for the shipping so their agreement with UPS overrides your request.

Phone is currently downloading the 17.0.2 update. It failed to move my number over (ATT) but I’m sure it’s just heavy network traffic and will work later today.
That’s it for now…
Just wanted to take a moment and appreciate everyone here for the journey. Thank you for all the support and help. Until next time, adios ❤️ Shout out to @Wolfs and @whattodo11 ! You guys are the real MVPs!
Mission accomplished. Picked up Titanium Blue Pro Max at my local Apple Store (only 3 miles away) this morning.
My original order went through at 5:05am on order day so I was able to pick the 8:15am-8:30am window. Store traffic was very manageable, surprisingly so. Not at all the crush and hordes I recall from pre-pandemic. I was out of there by 9:15am. (I did the setup in-store so I could be 100% sure when I let them erase my trade-in 13PM.)
First impressions (coming from 13PM):
- Yes, this phone is really light.
- Also feels, how should I say this... small. Several times today I've picked it up and thought, OMG, did I accidentally order the Pro and not the Max?
- I like the blue well enough. I knew I was going to keep it in a case for most part, so outer color didn't matter as much.
- Still not used to the screen being on all the time. That will take getting used to.
I returned the FW case and FW wallet I'd ordered. They made that easy. I had previously picked them up on Wednesday and looked at them off on and over the last two days. I tried to imagine how I'd feel if I'd kept them. I think if they'd been like $30 I would've kept them. $60 each? No. I ended up getting one of the silicon cases in the darker blue color. I'm happy with that.
For a wallet, I bought a brown leather one on eBay. New and never used. Includes "find my" feature. Got it for $22, so I'm happy with that. It arrives Monday-ish.
Hope everyone else who ordered and received their phone has a good and lucky experience today, especially if you live in lucky places like Las Vegas. Thanks to everyone who contributed and made this an interesting experience.
I leave this week feeling like I know waaaaay more about international shipping logistics than grads of 4-year supply chain programs. Haha.
Best to all.

My iPhone 15 Pro Max and my mom's iPhone 15 both delivered today. They're both safely inside my house but I won't be home until 8pmCDT to open and set them up.
Let us know you’re able to do the transfer later. I’m holding off for now.
This seemed to have worked. After updating my old iPhone 14 to 17.0.1, I ran the setup/transfer process again and about midway through on the iPhone 15 it asked to input the phone number and zip code to activate the eSIM.
Same! I’m east coast as well and mine hasn’t updated since 1:27am, it says on the way, and missed the delivery window of 11:15-3:15.
Of course got closer less than mile now all over place to MY NE several miles and now promised by 7 PM which I am starting to doubt
Initial set up seemed fine , phone number transferred fine and was starting to finish setting up and it asked me to scan a second time the blue fuzzy thing. I did and it is now stuck this way for almost 30 minutes My old phone is on the right and that screen has not changed like it froze??
I take it I should continue to wait.

Finally got my blue 15 PM! Delivered 2 minutes before the end of my window.
still no iPhone due to not being able to activate on ATT in store. Another guy had the same issue. We were both pretty frustrated. Not sure what to do at this point. I put in the work to preorder last week but no phone.

From what I have been reading, there has been a slewful of failed setups due to a setup bug in iOS 17. What ended up being required is the update to 17.0.2 first, then transfer everything over.

If you’re unboxing your new iPhone 15 today, you might run into a bug during the setup process, as we...

BL.
Did the new iPhone update to iOS 17.0.2 and then did the Quick Start procedure start over again?Initial set up seemed fine , phone number transferred fine and was starting to finish setting up and it asked me to scan a second time the blue fuzzy thing.

Apparently, UPS can’t find 1 of my 3 iPhone deliveries today. So it’s been a frustrating day for me so far. I’m still hoping they can find it. 
Then why would the new phone say Continue on Your Other iPhone???? That makes no sense.Initial set up seemed fine , phone number transferred fine and was starting to finish setting up and it asked me to scan a second time the blue fuzzy thing.
