Pre order thread - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio

Mine was ordered on 2-29 and a rep today has told me that it will take 3 business days.
Anyone else have anything different?

I got an email mine will be here tomorrow.

I ordered mine at 8am on Feb. 23. My status online says "Orders will begin shipping the week of 3/7."

Ordered 2/23.
"Your order for the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge has been received. Orders will begin shipping the week of 3/7. Keep an eye out for a shipping email with your tracking information. Thank you for your patience."

The status online has changed 3 times for me. From shipping monday, then this week in 2-5 days. Now it says shipping the week of the 7th.
Obviously sprint can't figure out what they are doing. But what's new.

I have it on my hand atm. Good phone so far. Battery dropped quick when i first got out bit removed bloat and now it's about better.

Ok So I pre ordered the Galaxy S7 on the 23rd at a retail store. I called up sprint today to get a status check on my order. the order number i gave him from my receipt did not work, so i told him to look at my account he saw that i had pre ordered the phone, he let me know that since all pre orders come with gearVR my phone will be shipped on the 11th of March along with the gearVR to a sprint store. he said i should get a tracking number right before its going to get shipped

The rep I talked to on the 29th said the phones were getting shipped to them from ***** on the 4th and they would ship the 7th. FWIW. She also said the Gear VR was in stock and would ship the 29th LOL.

ordered mine 3 days ago got it today S7 edge gold

Ordered mine on the 29th got it last night. Silver edge, Gear VR is on back order and ships by the 7th it says.

For everyone that got there phones already did you receive a email with tracking information or did it just show up ?

Ordered Mine from Verizon getting it NEVER! Lol probably next week....I hope.

Just chatted with a rep online. He says that they are back-ordered, but they'll be getting more in over the weekend and have them out next week. I sort of feel like a whiner because i'm not getting my phone earlier than I expected it. This process is making me act like a child. HAHA. If my order doesn't come early next week I'm going to throw an all-out man tantrum.

Information: for some reason sprint thinks that it's expectable to send out the phones that were purchased on 2/29 and 3/1 immediately , however who ever placed it on the 23rd we have to wait ! How does that make any since in hell??? I don't get it why are we the ones that are "backordered" ? We ordered nearly a week before them it's not fair that they are getting them , I complained and I suggest you do as well and let them know people are receiving it I received 30$ bill credit and a 30$ assessory because they agreeded and couldn't explain why mine wasn't sent even the person from the shipping department was confused !

They only give me a 15 dollar credit I order on the 24 and my bro order on 2/29 and has his phone I was piss I call everyday and everyday every sprint rep said something different smh

Keep complaining over live chat and over the phone i was pissed too i don't get it ! Why does someone who ordered after mine is the one who gets it ??? it makes no sense to me, and even the order specialist (shipping department) didnt even understand. My assumptions is that sprint originally gave us the 3/7 deadline but if you noticed on 2/29 and 3/1 the statuses changed and the people who placed orders on those two days originally received a shorter shipping period . So to avoid any problems they just shipped it due to whatever your original shipping said to avoid any problems and we are the ones that got backordered.

Got mine today s7 edge silver.
Ordered on the first..

I ordered on the 25th, same status changes on the order page as you guys, no shipping info yet. Regular s7. Seems like edge orders have shipped first, I think I will hop on chat later and complain a little and try to get some clarification.

Still waiting for sprint touch pro

I am waiting on a replacement on a 30 day exchange. Order was put in on the 11th.
on sprint.com they are currently out of stock... ive been trying to even order one these last few days. Hopefully they get more soon b/c my contract with verizon ends on thursday
i ordered mine from sprint.com as soon as they were in stock on the 14th (a friday, i previously signed up to get notified by email when they get more in stock). it was free over-night shipping and arrived the next business day on monday. it's been working great since then

They told me they couldn't do an exchange while it was out of stock when I called on the 18th, bastards (if you work for Sprint, please don't take this personally). I received mine on the 17th and now I'm waiting for it to be in stock again so I can call back and set up an exchange (off-white orbs on the lower portion of my LCD). Hopefully you get your replacement soon.
yea were expecting shipments to go through on the 25th we have a major backorder on that phone
I'm having some pains as well. I placed my order on the 13th, and was told I would probably have it in hand on monday the 17th. When it hadn't arrived by the 19th, I called to sort it out. Turns out the internal sprint ordering process is a two step process, and the dude helping me didn't confirm the second part, so while there was an order, the phone technically hadn't been ordered yet. So after assuring them I did in fact want them to push the order through, they completed the order, telling me it would arrive this last Saturday.
The next day I called back because I had a bad feeling they miight have changed the price I had agreed upon with the first guy. I only then found out that the unit was on back order, and I wouldn't receive it until this Friday.
I have doubts it will be here. This has all been frustrating. I hope it's worth it.
Sorry you're having trouble. I ordered mine a little after midnight on Nov. 2 (when they first made it available online) and got it 3 days later. I was a little nervous being an early adopter before all the reviewers had a chance to review it but I figured if I didn't get it then and waited I'd have to deal with depleted inventory issues and I needed a new phone right away.
ordered one on the 17th and one on the 18th. Was supposed to get one of them on the 19th. No luck. Still on back order. They are telling me the first week of Dec. I already sold my mogul and now stuck using a samsung A900. URGH!
www.newegg.com has the Sprint TP for $199 (after $100 MIR and 2 yr contract sign up), I plan on dealing with them very soon. Anyone order from there and experience wait times? It looks like a pretty good deal, and hopefully there will be a 20% off savings when dealing with paypal on cyber monday (if rumors hold true).
I just canceled my VZW plan, I think I'm making the right move.

BuyMobilePhones caution?

I have ordered a T-Mobile upgrade thru BuyMobilePhones.net. Having never heard of the company before I was a little cautious. They do however have one of the best deals I've found for my situation:
600 mins
500 texts
500mb internet
18 months
£30 a month
19.99 for the phone
The closest mobiles.co.uk have got is £35/m and £50 for the phone. And as its an upgrade I don't have to fanny about changing my number over which is a Brucey bonus.
..........
I rang on bank holiday Monday and spoke to a bloke who basically said he cant do anything today as its a BH and he would be on the phone to T-Mobile for too long and he took my details and would call back Tuesday. 'Hmmmmm' I thought, and agreed.
I got a bit antsy in my pantsy so rang back an hour later. I spoke to another bloke who took my details and said he'd ring back in ten mins after speaking to T-Mobile, he took the telephone password for my account (the one you tell the operator when you ring up), I was a bit apprehensive but gave it too him anyway (I have changed it now). He rang back after about 20 mins and said its gone through and I should expect delivery on Wednesday. I said goodbye but was still suspicions.
I then rang T-Mobile an hour later and asked if there had been any changes to my account. They told me a dealer rang up questioning an upgrade to a Motorola Milestone but nothing had been put through. I rang back BMP.net but they had all gone home.
So I rang them today(Tuesday) and spoke to the same bloke and he said they have to put it through as a milestone to get the best deal. 'Fair play', I thought, but the big question is will I still get it tomorrow (Wednesday). He told me that he thought there would be enough stock in for my order but there may not be and I may actually get it Thursday.
I have just rang up T-Mobile (Tuesday 18:20) to ask if any upgrades had been put through on my account and they said 'No'. I will call BMP.net a call tomorrow (Wednesday) at 09:00 to chase it up again.
..........
The best number to call is 01773 522308.
Anyone else dealt with them before?
I've had a the same order as yourself, but it's been stuck on the processing stage since yesterday morning when I click on order status.
How long did yours take to process?
As mines an upgrade I don't get access to that part of the site
No worries, not sure processing should take this long. I have emailed them this morning regarding the issue but still no reply.
Give the above number a call 0900-1730
Will do, tomorrow, cheers
Let us know how you get on
I had a 'mare with Buy Mobile Phones a while back. Ordered a new phone, they dicked me about, finally sent it, when it arrived the box was open, so I sent it back and they told me they wouldn't accept it because the phone was 'used'.
I had to scream, shout and threaten them with the office of fair trade before they'd even concede that it was them that opened it (or someone previously); and even then they gave me the old 'as an act of good faith' line. They are, without doubt, the murkiest phone shop I've ever used.
I wouldn't trust them any further than I could push them with my piss.
Hi there,
I ordered with buymobilephones.net and my order was dispatched yesterday and is out with City link for delivery tomorrow - so they are definitely legit.
Many thanks
The confirmation email says delivery, sadly the tracking number isnt tracking. Will phone cancel tomorrow if no delivery.

Got the same deal as thread starter, got tracking info via email from BMF. Should be with me tomorrow.
Any problems I have had to date had been delt with swiftly!
Did anybody have a slow order processing, mines been nearly 2 days.
I also ordered the same deal as the first poster and I have a tracking number for City Link that is giving Wednesday as the delivery day with it currently underway to the delivery depot.
I ordered it 'new' despite being eligable for an upgrade with t-mobile. A new number for the specified deal appeared on my existing account ( a couple of my kids also have t-mobile contracts on my account) on Saturday along with the dispatch e-mail.
Therefore all looks OK.

I ordered on 11th of April and my order was 'processing' until Saturday.
This was a new order.
Status is now that it is on the delivery van. Unfortunately I won't be there to receive it today and touch and go whether there will be anybody at home at all, so may have to wait an extra day.
Just had an email response to say that they have a massive backlog of orders for the galaxy s 2 and that is the reason for the delay in processing my order.

[Q] AT&T Pre-order folks...any shipping confirmation yet?

Anxiously waiting for mine to change from processing to shipped. Premier Chat Agent said it will be shipped today and delivered tomorrow, but I am getting skeptical.
Anyone's order changed to shipped yet? If so, what time did you place your preorder?
I placed mine order for a Cyan + black charging plate yesterday at 7:50 am Central time.

I heard from 1 person in Seattle, claiming he received his late last night. I recall from the 900 ship, my device was half way here before I received a shipping notification.
I've never had any shipping issues with AT&T. For me, when they say it will be there....its always been.
Mine says the 9th....I'm pretty much satisfied that it will be.

That has been my experience in the past when I have ordered phones direct from ATT, but in the past 3 years or so, I have bought mine from Amazon, Dell, or in the stores. Glad to hear this hasn't changed!

Around 9:00am PST. Black.
Damn...still no shipping confirmation.
Damn the anticipation. Got my list of apps to install all ready.
This will replace my iPhone 4 as my personal device and my iPhone 4 will get relegated to work phone duty...
Ordered and shipped. Should arrive on Friday via FedEx.
Black Lumia 920 with charging pad. Charging pad is coming separately though, should arrive on Monday.
Placed my order around 11:30 PM CST on 11/6.
Still playing the waiting game...and since order is being prepped for shipment (on an unknown date), their system cannot cancel the order to allow me to just get one at a store.

Same boat as you....i hate dealing with the online and or phone folks....the only reason i didn't just go pick one up from store is because i talked them into giving me an early upgrade on the phone through the 1800 number

my order got cancelled this morning for no apparent reason, so i went to the at&t store by my work place. there's a line, but most people are there for the note 2, and only a hand full are for lumia 920. grabbed my new lumia 920 in less than 10 minutes, although they do not have wireless charging pad in stock
I guess I have no choice but to wait if I want Cyan since it is online only....still no shipping confirmation.

Did you get a raincheck for the charging pad or is the promotion over?
finally got shipping confirmation for Tuesday delivery.
Ordered the red at 4PM EST on the 7th, and I'm still showing as processing. Called AT&T and they told me it's "at least" a 7 day backorder. Wonderful...
Still showing processing for me too. Cyan. Gets updated every day but always processing.
Called a store and they said they can order it for me but they don't have any. Is this the case everywhere?
Nokia L920 Cyan
Date ordered 11/8/2012 @ 7pm Backordered half a day then pending
Shipped 11/9/2012 with Track # from Memphis TN > Los Angeles
Estimated Delivery Fedex 11/10/2012 :fingers-crossed:
Phone arrived today, almost at the end of the window that FedEx estimated it'd be delivered.
Phone is awesome. No charging pad included (but a separate one is on the way to be delivered Monday).
Various SIM
First thing Wednesday I went to the local AT&T store and ordered the black 920 to be shipped to my home, The salesperson was familiar with but unsure if I was getting the charging base offer. Thursday I received a USPS shipping confirmation for the phone item 6027A as well as one for a "Various SIM" item 72290. Friday morning the phone was in the store and the shipping confirmation showed Memphis USPS departure that day, Friday.
I assume that I am not getting the charging pad as others have said it shipped separately and it is not on the shipment notification. Item 72290 is an actual micro SIM SKU.
My previous 900 came via FedEx on a Saturday before the phone was in store Monday.
Nokia 920 Red
Ordered 11/7 on Line
Status: Processing
As on today(11/11) it still sits in processing.
Contacted AT&T and they told me its backordered, it will ship when it ships.
This is a gift for my wife. I have already picked up a White one.
No option to Cancel online. No option to cancel via phone. NO option stop it.

How AT&T Dropped the ball on the 920 release

Seriously, I have been a loyal AT&T customer for OVER 10 years, with 5 phone lines and 1 data only line (paying almost $400/mo) and this time, I almost told then to "GO F*** OFF!!"
Back story: First, the news that the 920 was releasing was released in September. In October, we found out that AT&T was able to get an exclusive for 6 months on the device. We also had the WP8 release event from Microsoft. November, AT&T FINALLY releases pricing for the 920 and a release date. No news on Pre-Order availability until it was a few days from release date.
Now, AT&T did such a HORRIBLE job on educating their own customer service reps, that I almost just gave up.
1. I tried to pre-order online, but since I have a corporate discount on my account, I had to go through their Enterprise Portal and pre-order was blanked out so I could no do it.
2. I thought I would be sly and order it by phone. Everything went well until the rep told me it was $199.99... I choked and told her "No Thanks"!
3. I went into the store when it opened (Wed Nov 7). Rep there didn't even know pre-orders were being accepted but after much assuring by me and looking in her computer, she started my order. After finishing she GUARANTEED me it would arrive by Friday, that is what the computer was telling her.
Friday comes and my phone is still in "Processing" state. I called to get an update and I was told it was being processed and would ship soon. In other words, she had no freaking clue.
I bash AT&T on FB and get a text from a rep from my store asking me what's up. We text for a while and come to find out that it may take a week or more for my phone to ship. The original rep should have told me that, but no, set my expectations really high to get smashed.
After looking over my order some more, he finds out that my free charging pad was not added to my order, so now I have to go BACK and get that fixed.
To make it worse, the availability of the phone in AT&T stores has been lackluster at best. I'm talking most only are getting 3 devices in Black, Red and/or White for sale. All other colors have to be ordered.
Oh, they are not even letting people in line waiting to get one know that they are out of stock, instead, they are letting them stay there waiting for an hour+ at a time to tell them they have none, but then try to sell them on a S3, Note 2 or an iPhone 5.
So, where did AT&T drop the ball? Hell, if you read up and also what others around the country have been saying, they pretty much dropped it everywhere they could, and even in some placed you didn't think they could!
I'm going to wait out for my Yellow 920. I am going to get over all this eventually, but all I can tell you know is, if I ever go to pre-order a phone from AT&T and am told it will arrive on launch date, it will be in writing and someone will pay for it if it falls through.
If you plan to go to a store and wait in a "line" for this phone, just go up and ask over someone shoulder to see if they even have one.
Agreed. I preordered my red 920 on the 7th, was guaranteed that it would arrive by the 9th. Now being told it won't even ship for another "week or two". Being told that it was first come first serve, but I know people who preordered on the 8th received their phones on the 9th as promised. Very annoyed by all of this, honestly.
I learned a long time ago not to preorder from AT&T except in store. I have yet to in the stores on morning/mid day or even early afternoon of a release day device and not be able to get one. Now I live in Maine so obviously that is a lot easier than if you live in a big city or what not.
2 Stores near me got plenty of Note II's, 8X's and 920's. The one I chose to go to had the 10 black 920s, 10 white, and 5 red. No Yellow or Cyan.
The last time I preordered online I got my phone about a week after release, even though the devices were in stock at the store.
I preordered both the iPhone 3gs and 4 in store and they were both there release morning.
in store...

I preordered in store early Wednesday and am still waiting, so this is no sure fix. I also am not getting the charger and will have to return to the store to argue about it. I did have the option of shipping the phone to the store, which considering the store had it in stock on Friday would have been a better idea this time since even if my phone wasn't there I would have just taken one of the ones they had. As preordered Lumia 900s that were shipped directly arrived before the models in store, how would you have guessed? Certainly AT&T botched this release in the US.
Damn unfortunate . I ordered a 920 Cyan thru Att premier on Nov 8 and got it today Nov 10. They shipped it overnight instead of 2 day :good:

The bigger question is why in the name off all things good and holy are you paying AT&T so much money? Switch to Straight Talk and pay half of that for four lines, and that includes all-you-can-eat minutes/text/data?
I'm confused, why are you paying so much??
My family plan with 5 lines and 4 out of the 5 have 3GB data and we're only paying $250 a month.
AT&T stores are having issues with the amount of L920 they are getting in stores. The store I went to only had 1 nokia in stock which was in black. Couple other stores in the area had maybe 2-3 in stock. Maybe none.
I avoided the whole pre-order nonsense and
took a chance that I would get the phone by getting in line at the store Friday morning. I have pre-ordered before and had a similar experience and will never do it again. All in all, I was able to get the phone Friday after waiting in line outside the store for 30 mins. and once I got inside the store, about an hour.

You guys had lines for the Nokia? That's weird, I've seen videos of people waiting in line and there's about 5-10 other people but I never seen any type of line at my AT&T store.
I went on launch day.
I live in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Yep

I got there at 8:30 and attached is a picture of the line at that time. This AT&T is across the road from Dell here in Austin so maybe that would explain it.

I have a similar story, but mine was worked out so I actually received my phone today via FedEx and I will never order another device where they have to deliver it. I went online after mid-night to try and order the device, but everything it kept trying to charge me an extra $150 for the charging plate and the $100 which was to drop the phone to $99. So I called ATT and the first rep couldn't tell what was going on and chalked it up to me being a corporate account user. So I had to call back the next day and waste another hour on the phone with a corporate rep who finally told me to just order it and they would credit it back after the fact - what part of stupid, do I look? So I wasted an hour on phone before work and called back at Lunch to find out that I had a code which showed my service plan wasn't compatible with the offer, and that they needed to update it. So I wait for a supervisor, explain my situation for the third or fourth time and get cut off before she can correct the freaking problem. I finally call back and speak to gentlemen by the name of Jose, who walks me to through, count them, 4 transfers before we get back into the corporate account section and a darling young lady sets the code correctly to reflect a current voice and data plan compatible with the offer and I immediately am able to order the phone on their website. This is the afternoon of the 7th of November. They process my order, it gets sent out to FedEx and of course, two day deliver doesn't mean a hill of beans to them. I see a status that it was picked up the morning of 8 November and estimated for delivery on 12 November. So I go through the entire weekend without a new toy to play with; but no biggie, I got the phone and charging plate after being told by ATT that the plate was on backorder. SO I AM NOW HAPPY. If I could only get my wireless hotspot, all would be golden.

The bigger question is why in the name off all things good and holy are you paying AT&T so much money? Switch to Straight Talk and pay half of that for four lines, and that includes all-you-can-eat minutes/text/data?

I'm confused, why are you paying so much??
My family plan with 5 lines and 4 out of the 5 have 3GB data and we're only paying $250 a month.
AT&T stores are having issues with the amount of L920 they are getting in stores. The store I went to only had 1 nokia in stock which was in black. Couple other stores in the area had maybe 2-3 in stock. Maybe none.

I pay more because I am on an Enterprise Unlimited Data Plan (means no throttling, EVER) with all 5 lines and a few of the devices have insurance.
Strait Talk is out of the question because of the plan stipulations and level of service I would lose with those plans over the Enterprise service.
As for an update. Nope, still no phone and still no word on when it will ship.
Latest update other than it not shipping:
Ok, when I pre-ordered, I ordered the phone and a charging STAND. What ended up happening is, they placed the order for my PHONE and a charging PAD (after corporate discount, it was $25). When I questioned why my FREE pad was not on my order, come to find out they ordered the phone and I PAID for the free pad. So they fixed that, then I placed the order for my stand and it was $37 after corporate discount..
I hate AT&T!

General Release date for US slips to 8/24

I just saw this when checking on B&H. Amazon also has this date. Originally it had a release date of 8/19. Hopefully it doesn't slip even more.
I would not be supprised if we dont see the phone in the US by september. If you bought direct from Sony the date says September 17th, even if you pre-ordered on the 1st.
b&h shipped my free earbuds today and my 1 iii shows a status of “order in progress”. not too sure what that means. weird to me that they are shipping separately.
I preordered mine on amazon and it says it will ship on the 24th and be here on the 26th. I hope so! I can't wait! Im still rocking an old Galaxy S5 and an S8+ and could sure use an upgrade. lol
Well, I got my Sony headphones that were available for an extra $1 with the preorder today. Havent tried them yet though. Thursday can't come fast enough.

I got my earbuds too last week. i ordered from b&h and chose 1 day shipping so my fingers are crossed for Wednesday. i have pre ordered things from amazon also in the past and a couple of times they arrived on the release day. i have prime. if you do too and they already have the phones, you might get surprised by an early shipping notification.
Yup. I have Prime.
they’re now shipping in the US as of 8/24

I ordered from Sony and got my headphone the day after I ordered, was kinda caught of guard that they came so fast. So I have had the headphone but no phone for the last month.

mine shipped today from b&h. fedex shows delivery for tomorrow.
Are you kidding me!?!?! Mine was supposed to come today but never showed as shipped from Amazon and just now got an email saying there has been a delay and the new delivery date is Sep 15 - Oct 1. I want, or should I say, I NEED my phone. I dont dare cancel it and try to but it elsewhere cause they are all on back order or first come first serve thing. Ugh... Som much for my pre-order. I guess I wait.

I almost ordered from there but being a Prime member, I decided to stick with Amazon. But then Amazon canceled my order three times cause the system thought it was suspicious activity and someone gained unauterized access to my account and made this purchase and canceled my order and locked me out of my account. Tooke me about 45 minutes on the phone, the 3rd time, to get them to figure it out. I guess the first time should have been the first clue to go else where. Sucks is it would be like 2 or 3 days before it would cancel my order so in all, this went on for like 8 days before it actually went through and stuck. lol
