No, it's locked. You could buy it and get it unlocked via a third party, though.

The only issue when ordering from Amazon would be if you have an unlimited data plan and want to keep it, there is no option to do so. I even called AT&T and was told that if I loose my unlimited data plan by mistake, that I will have to open a case....smh

I don't have a smart phone right now so only option is Amazon for a cheaper price and saving tax
Atrix available on Amazon for $150.

I was looking to get the Atrix and I called AT&T today and the Business Customer care said they could upgrade me early (March 7 is actual date). Can AT&T actually change this on their system so it shows Feb 22 so I can pay $150 through Amazon/Radio Shack?
Just curious if anyone knows.

The Atrix 4G is now available for $149.99 @ Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-Atrix-4G-Android-Phone/dp/B004KZP4BQ

And it's $599 off contract?
I thought retail on this thing was $499?

Anyone getting a new account with AT&T could get the Atrix for $99.99 or the Inspire for FREE if you go in through this link!!

The discount really does work. I would post a pic but I can't upload one through the iPad. I would definitely do it if I didn't have an account there's no place beating that price!

Can also verify this works but AT&T still charges activation; with my setup (family plan with 2 phones) Amazon is cheaper by $30.

Can any confirm that it not unlocked if you pay $599? Anybody get it unlocked by 3rd party?

Amazon wants to put me on the data plan, but I have an unlimited Data plan grandfathered in... Anyone know how to get around this? Or am I screwed into paying the AT&T store price?
Thanks

Who is ordering from Project Fi?

Am I the only one ordering the phone through project fi and keeping my service with tmobile? I think I will just get the phone through there and spend additional $30 a month so that I could get the phone

What do you mean about spend the additional $30 a month, you mean financing it through Fi?

The Fi basics is $20 plus $10 for 1GB that's $30 plus $30 for the installment plan in total of $60+ tax. Who knows, I might like Fi better. My current bill for tmobile is $150. I still owe money from the note 4 and g3

Oh ok, you plan to use Fi. Thought you meant you were going to finance it through Fi and use T-mobile service on it which won't work, the phone will be locked to Fi while it's financed until you pay it off.

My invite says it's 2/3 weeks away. That I am on the list. I'm hoping to grab a 5x through fi for my fiancé. I'm converting her from the iPhone lol. She's game too. I was kind of shocked, but she was good once she seen the video.

I tried to got that route thinking it would let me bypass the wait. Unfortunately I finally got my invite this morning and wasn't even able to order the phone. I'm already on the waitlist.
So I guess I'm not sure what you think you'll be gaining by getting it Fi. The price is the same and availability is the same. I would just buy it through the store is you have no need for the service itself.

Off topic question about Fi, I should be getting an invite in a few weeks, but I am still on Verizon. Will Fi start charging me once I receive the sim, or will it only charge me when I activate it? I would assume activation

True, but I'm not willing to shell out $690 upfront, hence why I'm doing the installment plan. God knows how long it will take for the phone to hit the stores, if it ever will

I went to the project fi site and got an instant invite, my question is if you root will that effect the service? I know the pay won't work on my rooted phone but that doesn't bother me

Android pay works with root, you have to unroot while entering cards, then you can root again.
How'd you get an instant invite? Most people have to wait weeks. Root shouldn't effect service.

Not sure, maybe location? Wasn't expecting it, on an one m8 at the moment and don't feel like messing with it to make pay work on it. Using T-Mobile $30 prepay at the moment and not really using any where close to my 5G's of my data, and using hangouts for 90 % of my calls works ok, so I figured I'd give fi a try.
Now that you're signed up for Project Fi, all that's left is for us to ship your order. We're on it, and we'll follow up with a separate shipping confirmation.

You may be able to add cards while you unroot, but the actual tap and pay will not work if you are rooted.

I got an instant invite too. I think it probably has to do with location. Fi is an experiment, so Google would probably want to have people running it all over the network area.
Where did you see that it would be SIM locked to Fi? If that's true, I'll probably just cancel my order because I have very little faith that the service will be acceptable where I live. I was going to give it a shot and if it sucked, I was just going to throw my Verizon SIM in.

FYI, I just looked at the Fi help faq and it says you can cancel any time with the payment plan, but you have to pay off the phone at that time. It really does not seem like the phone is SIM locked.

You might be correct about sim locked, but they do require active service while doing payments so it wouldn't be a good deal for someone to Pay $20 plus taxes a month just to be able to finance the phone if one doesn't plan on using Fi service.

I ordered my Nexus 6P through Project Fi. The 128GB Aluminum model.

Start-up: Verizon pixel xl bootloader unlock bounty

Please, keep this thread clean and to the point. This is intended to compensate any developers who may step forward to assist with the unlocking of the Verizon Pixel/XL.
UPDATE: @jcase @firewaterdevs Ask's that any donations be sent to the Make-A-Wish
Please post your donation to this thread.
Sorry for the late response. Been busy at the hospital.

Future Updates...

I pledge $25.00 on the assumption it is original work, not stolen or misappropriate work of others.

jcase said:
Cash pools like this are not an acceptable form of bounty on XDA, they carry to high of a risk of fraud. We used the pledge based system on XDA.
30days is also a short time to develop an unlock for a new platform.

[BOUNTY & REWARD] ROOT LG G6 T-Mobile Reward

So, I decided to make this for us the non devs to contribute to devs for their effort here. If you can give something out as a thank you, then, thank you.
Put the amount you pledge for a working TWRP and root for the TMobile LG G6. Bootloader is unlockable so it shouldn't take much time.
Rules:
You should really pay the amount you pledged.
Developer should post a link with the thread as working.
Edit:
The phone seems to be a lost cause at this point.

I have been using xda since I was a pup.. and I just got this g6. I am stunned visually by how nice the phone feels and how sharp it looks. Its performance is great and I really can see my self happy with it for 2 years! That is.. if they fix and optimize the battery in an update, OR I do my usual song and dance and root and Rom my phone! I usually end up with a phone after it has root but I'd love to contribute to a bounty to see some magic happen.

Unfortunately, isn't going to happen this time.
Jcase, the person that broke it last time, is very very busy.
The common stance on this with most programmers and hackers is that 'you should have bought the Unlockable one'
The most you will be able to do is hope for a massive defect and get Google to trade your device.

While I get the sentiment to have purchased the unlockable one, the black friday discount was just too good pass up. the play store wont ship out 2XL in panda for a few weeks. It sucks but I'm sure someone can figure it out. All devices on verizon lock bootloaders, theres not many now that use Oreo, but in a few weeks or months there will be greater push for unlocking.

That's a pretty convincing argument. I guess I'll just get the black model since the panda is on back order.

You all need to venture out in other forums that have had a bootloader unlock in the past year. That's where you may find someone who actually wants to help out.
This may require purchase of this device to send to the hacker.
I have been a member for quite some time and keep in touch with several members that are directly responsible for things like depixel8.
It seems that the days of unlocking bootloaders are slowly becoming a thing of the past.
Not saying you couldn't try to get another genius on it but, don't expect much.
The other reason that people don't want to unlock the bootloaders is because they get a ton of newbs in their shoulders asking stupid questions because they didn't read original posts with the instructions.
Check the TWRP or Magisk thread, people are just incapable of reading.
My suggestion is: Save your money till next October and buy unlocked. 10 months, $910.
They will probably offer a trade in as well.
Not quite sure what everyone wants with rooting anyway. Substratum can be used without root, everything else is just about there. There have been no new ROMs for this phone (doesn't really need one either) and, the Kernel is about the only thing you'd be left wanting to flash.
Adguard takes care of 99.9% of ads without root.
What do you all need root for?
