I just spent 20min waiting outside a T-Mobile store before it opened, the doors finally opened, I tell the rep I would like to buy a Note 4 and to my shock she said "we didn't get any". I called every other store in a 30mi radius and NOBODY has them. So make sure you call before you waste your time driving to the store.
This is all very ironic since I decided not to preorder so I could be one of the first people to get one on launch day I am pretty ticked so I filed a formal complaint, and encourage others to do the same (being polite of course). Stores are suppose to get shipments days in advance of a major product launch.

Its true. I live in NW Houston and working in SE Houston/Pasadena area so I called a lot of stores near home and work and about half of them said that Note 4 is sold out (calling within 9am-930am) and the rest said they are still waiting for the shipment and some said they only do store orders and directly shipping it to my home address. One store told me to hurry up in the afternoon because they are only getting 4 units. WTF?
Wow, only 4? I wonder if Samsung is to blame or if it's T-Mobile. Or both. I haven't heard of any other carriers having supply issues yet.
Thank you for lesson learned. I have it since this past Monday already.
Are you trying to save $6 on the shipping?

I mentioned I didn't preorder since I wanted to have it as soon as possible, I didn't feel like waiting for the UPS truck to show up. I called the minute preorders were up, they said I would get it on the 17th probably in the afternoon.

Sorry to hear you haven't had any luck locating a store with Note 4's in stock.
I'm south of Houston & planned to walk into a store to pick one up but decided to pre-order instead...certainly worked out for the better.
I called 6 different Corp stores and they all said shipment got botched and hopefully ups is delivering them today. Non Corp stores have them. Any reason not to go to a non Corp. At AT&T I got screwed by going non Corp

I've never gone to a non corporate store to get a phone. I know there are some things 3rd party stores can't do. It's kind of funny I actually work in mobile sales for a major company but we don't sell T-Mobile so I have to go get one at a store like everyone else. Our store actually only had 3 to sell as of last night when I got off(the rest of the shipment we got was all in store pickups for preorders) and I mentioned to management how BS that was.

Now that we know, ordering at the store is not it. Now you can tell UPS to hold your package while its on its way and you just pick it up at the service center. Everyone that live near KY gets free upgrade to next day air.
Got mine this morning at 10am. Showed up to the store at 9 and they told me they didn't have any and when I called at 10 they told me they had gotten 10 in and to hurry

I was the same. I was really mad. but I got mine from a different store. The funny thing is all the guys at tmobile had a new shirt has the next big thing is here and they have nothing in stock
I played with the Note 4 for a bit but going to probably wait and see how I like the Nexus 6. The store only had a few left of the 8 they got.
I called 10 stores this morning in my area for 2 white (for a friend - got mine Wed). 7 had sold out already, 2 will not get their shipments in until after 3pm and 1 had 2 left. Unfortunately, they won't hold them so he's gonna try his luck at those 2 stores since the last store is an hour and half drive and likely won't be stocked when he gets there.
From what the stores told me, most of them got 2 white and 2 black and received their shipment later than expected but still sold out quickly. I'm surprised - they had so many s5 on launch day but I guess the Note 4 is a different breed!
same here some stores hadnt gotten the shipment yet. but i found one that did so i got mine.

Guess samsung just wants to "sell out"
So much for Samsung spending millions on marketing and promoting their phones only to mess up their store launch day
Well I dont even know if this is Samsung's or Tmo's fault.
Oh, there one store 60 miles away from me expecting the delivery in 30 mins. Crossing my fingers that I'll be able to get one 2 hrs from now. Cant leave work yet
all the other stores said to call or go back at 11 am to 2 pm to see if they already had them.

Radio shack is the only place in lower NH i could get on a pre-order list. Comes in Friday
Good thing I ordered mine Sunday.. i received it earlier today!
Here in Ohio no better, Went to best buy with my buddy, was quoted as Evo shippment tomorrow and now it's been moved to a nice lovely ambiguous "sometime from wednesday to friday" Here's hoping sooner rather than later but oh well. Here's hoping we can survive the great evo shortage of 2010! (*side note* kinda regretting not pre-ordering sooner, I was 8 people into the 2nd batch forcing me to wait an extra week. BAH!)
its good news, i just wished they had more accessories on launch day!
Decided to give in and pick one of these up yesterday. Couldnt find one in stock anywhere. This morning I was prepared to call every Radio Shack in the area. The 1st one I called said someone just took themselves off the list and that they had one available. I put my name on it, and picked it up 20 minutes later.
I have 2 friends that got theirs this same way. I did pre order one for my girlfriend though while I was there and she will be getting it on Friday.
I just got mine today and I had to call 8 or so sprint stores to find one in stock, ends up the store I got mine at had 10 in stock still from the first shipment and they had given a lot of their first order of 300 to other area stores. Once I got there it took them about 2 and a half hours to activate the flippin thing, my voice and 4g connected but my 3g never came up, took them forever to sort it out. They actually had to activate two evos to figure the problem out. I got 2 boxes and goodies out of the deal though, I am in the kc area too.
Which Sprint store was this? Im also in the KC area and have a few friends wondering if anyone has them in stock. Sounds like that store may be worth a shot.

how are some of you getting overnight delivery; i placed my order around 12pm PST yesterday and i still haven't received a delivery notification or any updates; it still says waiting in the warehouse for processing; this is annoying me since it's supposed to be overnight delivery
I'm corporate so I have to go through my Sprint rep (can't get one through a local store), ordered it a week ago today and still no word.
Same here.. but i got on the in-store list as well. My hope is that the wait is due to manufacturing changes and I get a device without all the shortcomings of the earlier devices.

I'm waiting for it to be in stock so I can get a replacement evo because of the back light leaking issue I call n it's out of stock every time they said as soon as it goes in stock I can get a replace ment no questions asked
Yeah, but in the meantime they should be knocking out some with the old config (the changes aren't that critical) !!!!! If they wait any longer, the moto x, iphone 4, etc are going to kill their sales numbers. Time is money... hurry up HTC and Sprint!!!!!!

I was on a waiting list at one of the Sprint retail kisoks in one of our malls for an Evo for my dad and I was going to bring him and my mom to my family plan. I called a week and a half ago and got on the list and then I called saturday (8 days later) and they said they'd call me back later that day, I waited 3 hours and they said they were still seeing if they could work something out. I took my parents out to lunch and they place they picked was over near the mall so I decided we should stop by after lunch and see where I was on the list and figure things out. We stopped by and I asked where I was on the list and I was still on the second page. I then said "We are here, you can either call 20 people back on the list today and maybe get one, or you could sell me one right now while we're here. He considered it a second and then said "Ok, I can do that". My mom had though about getting one as well and after she heard him say that she chimed in with "get one for me too". And he did and we walked out 30 min later all set. Just have to realize that they are there to sell phones, so if you find the right guys and show them cash they're much more motivated.
I agree with you man. I ordered from http://shopamerica.htc.com/homebrands/index.htm because on their website, it said they were in stock, so I placed the order that day (FRIDAY), WAS APPROVED NEXT DAY, AND SAID IT WAS READY TO SHIP. It showed my estimated delivery date. Said it would be shipped out Tues (tomorrow) and would arrive Weds since I chose overnight.
I check the status of my order today and to my surprise there is a new tab that says BACK ORDERED. I was pissed off! I called up customer care immediately asking why did they say it was in stock on their website, then all of a sudden today, it says its on back order. The rep told me that "THEY MUST'VE FORGOT TO REMOVE IT FROM THEIR SYSTEM." I'm like wtf kinda bull**** is that? I didn't get any notification, no phone call, no email. I had to find out by checking online. Very unprofessional.
I asked her when I would receive my phone and she told me they would be getting them in stock on Friday the 25th. So I said fine and hung up. Called back up a couple hours later because I initially forgot to ask when I would ACTUALLY RECEIVE IT. Gave the person my info and he then tells me that I wont receive my phone until JULY 1ST. You can only imagine how much more pissed off I was. I told him what the previous rep told me, then he said the earliest you are going to receive your phone is July 1st. I asked him about cancelling my order and he told me it would take 3-5 business days. Then I told him, you can automatically debit my account the day I make purchase, but it would take almost a full week to get refunded? Told him i'd think about cancellign and i'd call him when i've reached a decision.
How can one rep tell me one date, then another rep give me another? That is so rediculous. If I DO NOT receive my phone by the 1st, i'm definately cancelling my order and sticking with T-Mobile. This is rediculous...
yes, but there's a caveat...

On a corporate/business/enterprise account, you can definitely walk into a Sprint store and walk out with anything in there, as long as you are a POC on the account.
HOWEVER...
There's a catch: most sprint stores are privately owned, so any hardware in there has been purchased by the owner from Sprint. Result: the discounts you can get through your rep are unavailable to you in the store, so your account gets charged whatever the store charges, as opposed to the discounted rates for hardware through your rep.
Lolz i picked mine up on the 8th the day i decided i wanted one and sold my iphone. call around to every little place that has them, they might just have 1 more just for you

I did the same thing.
Now that I'm trying to get it exchanged/replaced I called around and found that every Sprint store is sold out but the first 'Mobile Best Buy' (it's a cart in the mall, lolololol) I got a number for, had over ten in stock. Too bad they're still broken so there isn't a point going through the trouble of exchanging it yet.

Actually the Best Buy near me had 4 of them. There are only 2 problems with that:
1) I am buying at full retail price and Best Buy's cost is $499 and they will not price match for non-activated prices.
2) If HTC stopped production to fix some issues then it makes good sense to wait until production starts back up again.
The problem is that I am really impatient!
3 of ours are from spint.com, but sprint 1800 said that I had to wait until sprint.com got more in before I could exchange them, which they haven't gotten any in recently.
They need to hurry up, because at this rate the samsung galaxy s pro is going to be out.
Caught between MIR deadline and 30-day return?
My employer has a sweet deal on the Evo - so I ordered through them on 6/26 - even though it involves the dreaded mail-in rebate. Of course, I'm on backorder. I noticed though, that the MIR form insists that the receipt must show it was purchased by July 10 to be eligible for the MIR. I suspect this is also the date when the 30-day return clock begins. What if the delays are long, and it goes past that date? Does my cost go up $100 due to the problems with their supply chain? If it goes by the date ordered - then is my 30-day return period reduced to nothing?
I'm betting all the new Evos will ship with the new OTA update that breaks root. HTC's big **** you to the community for trying to fix their problems.

At my store we got a pretty good supply of them, unlike the HD2. Its doubtful it will sell out but you could call your local store and see if they are willing to hold one for you till end of day.

I'll be heading out in about 10-15 minutes to go procure my vibrant. gonna show up a couple minutes early. I thought the HD2 launch was gonna be slow, and I was wrong on that, I showed up 10 minutes early then and there was already like 8 people waiting
I just called the one near me, he said they got about 60 of them. No need to try to have them hold one.
Gonna pick it up after work. New Android phone to play with! Yay!
Sadly I'm out of town and I'm not able to go roaming around for a T-mobile store so I ordered mine via CC service. They didn't seem to think there would be any shortages any time soon. I would be worried that they would run out of those screens since others like the Evo have been having issues.
When I get home mine should be waiting for me.
I was the only customer waiting at my store when I picked up my Vibrant. I was thankful I didn't have to wait in a line, but part of me hopes that popularity of the Vibrant grows. I'd like the largest dev community on the TMobile version of the Galaxy S.
The change in release date a week out might of changed initial demands?
I think Samsung has a LOT of the devices around though to be honest, and if a store ran out, tmobile will still have them in stock at a warehouse and be in stock within a day or two.

True. The first clerk I spoke with at our downtown store thought the date was the 21st.
when i picked up my vibrant today, there were a few people purchasing it, however the clerk said that the mytouch slide had a line thouroughout the day on it's release date. i guess the reason being is that t-mobile advertised the **** out of the mytouch. even in the store all you see is the mytouch all ove the place. i guess if t-mobile advertised this phone as much as the mytouch slide then more people would've been there purchasing the phone.
I've read around somewhere that Samsung is going to be doing the advertising more than the carriers. I haven't seen any on TV or online, so I'm not sure if Samsung is going to start it any time soon.
I walked into the T-Mobile corp. store here in town around 11 CST. There were exactly one customer per sales rep, and the only other person in there looking for the vibrant was another guy from my job.
They had not even opened the shipping case of Vibrants until he arrived there. No displays, they had a demo unit, but it was locked in the drawer under one of the cash registers. They didn't even know if they were supposed to be selling them today.
I couldn't believe the total lack of advertising they had up--I'm talking none at all. Their "showcase" device was still the MTS. Go figure.
I'm picking up mine in a couple of hours...Futureshop and Best Buy has limited quantities..most stores are out of stock already....only two futureshop locations has it...excited!
Have they set up demo devices in store?

Lol I tried picking mine up at FS and they couldn't sell it to me despite me having it reserved. Street date is Nov 8th or some BS apparently. The guy had the box in his hand right in front of me. Not sure what Samsung is trying to achieve here by delaying launch by another week. Ugh.
Also it looks like there's only the white 32 gb model initially. Too bad, I wanted the black
Just a tip to those who live near the border. Amazon USA is selling the white 16gb for $549 plus a free $50 Amazon gift card. Its a pretty good deal and I was able to take advatange of it. Also, you get perks worth $600 upon registering the tablet. I dont think the Canadian model offers the same perks.

Lol that's pretty funny. Anyway I managed to go pick up my FS order today because the release date magically got pushed up to Nov 1st. Thanks Apple? What ****ty logistics on Samsung's part.
Just picked up the last one at my future shop

I just bought the last one in calgary today bro!!!
didn't realize it was released until last night at about midnight, woke up this morning and called everywhere. the best buy stores ALL had their stock mis-shipped, so NONE of them got it in. as for futureshop, the only one that had any left was the deerfoot meadows store, which thankfully is only about a ten minute drive from my house. called, got the guy to put it away for me, and tore down there as fast as i could, went in and bought it immediately (after having them run around looking for it because the sales guy didn't put it on hold properly, he just hid it inside the lockup where their normal stock is...so i could have even had it sold out from under me if i wasn't lucky).
i ended up buying the total protection plan coverage because it covers up to two free replacements if i break it, so i figure worst case, it breaks, great i just saved 300 bucks on the second tablet (since the plan cost me 300 instead of its usual 360) and then if i break it again, perhaps days before the end of the warranty and when they only have the next generation note available, then i guess i get it replaced with the new one
also the warranty is over the counter for breakage, they don't make you wait and wait and wait.... you simply bring it in, they see it's broken, and they go get you a new one. if it's just needing repair, like for the battery, which is covered for two years also, then you actually get a loaner note while yours is being fixed...pretty damn cool!!!!
anyways, i just installed the latest australia firmware onto it, since that is the newest of any available, and i just rooted it....starting to really enjoy it now. now i just hope someone comes out with at least a rom or two for it, or i might have to try my hand at making one, although i've never made one how hard can it be? lol...
a tad bit angry at myself, atm.
i asked one of the tmobile stores on that spreadsheet to give me a call when the n6s are up for sale, knowing that tmobes delayed in-store purchases for a week. really wasn't expecting anything and was just content with gp finally charging my card last night.
anyhow, five mins ago i got a call from that store saying that they received their shipment and they would sell me one... right now. normally i'd be super stoked, but gp chrg is not cancellable anymore and i'm not going to make another debit/credit transaction just because i'm impatient.
so... call your stores... NOW. you may get lucky. you may not. pretty sure the dude wasn't supposed to sell me one, but was glad he tried to help me out. this particular store in tx, btw (houston area).

took your advice and yes, they got them in where i live. The rep said he couldn't sell me one but i could come play with one if i wanted.
A store has them here in Indianapolis. The person working there said I can come in to see it.
Can confirm. Store in my area received shipment today as well, but they wont sell it until the 19th...because "it isn't in their system". FML.
Do we know if they will have the white version?

It has been covered many times. No white. Seems like white is Motorola and Google Play only for now. All the carriers that have announced the phone are all getting blue only.
This is sounding more and more that Google is making them hold back sales until their first round of Play store orders are shipped.
I called every store in my area. they seem to have it but they wont sell it until the 19th

I was still holding out hope.
Yep...it's definitely showing up in various Tmobile stores today.

I wonder if this is only showing up at the stores that were supposedly slated to get them according to the spreadsheet last week? Anyone heard of one showing up at a store that WASN'T listed on the spreadsheet?
Got to handle one on Indianapolis.
Sounds like all stores have received pricing but only a few have actually started receiving demo units. Early word is that they will start selling them in stores on the 19th. Take that with a grain of salt, it's just what some of the T-mobile reps are saying.

Called two local stores today, they don't say they have it but are telling me they will have the 19th.
Nope. I just called all my local T-Mobile stores, and they said they have it, but can't sell it until the 19th.
