Just wondering if anyone has run into the g2x being out of stock or heard of it happening. Have not seen any posts saying it was but curious.
i went to the store like 30 mins after it opened. No lines or anything for the g2x. just some old people and one lady getting a mytouch4g and asking if the tmobile rep knew her gmail username and password but back to the point, i was their first g2x purchase and he said that particular store had like 15 or so. no accessories tho.
I went to the store like an hour early to get the phone and was the only person there lol. But they only had 10 units total .

It's 7:30pm here. I just walked in and bought one. They said they had plenty in stock.
I walked in at about 4:30 to my local T-Mobile store and they were sold out. The guy there called the other T-Mobile store in town and they were also sold out. Apparently the person who walked into the store right before me was going to buy 5 G2X's anyways, so I missed out by a long shot.
Glad I have about 20 T-Mobile stores within 20 miles of my residence.
A T-mobile store manager told me that each store has been alotted 10-20 g2x for sale.
The store I went to said they only had about 6 in stock. I was the 4th to get one.
My store hadn't sold any by around 2:00pm, but they had sold several Sidekick 4Gs.

Have the store order you one. You don't have to wait for them to get a shipment.
You have more patience than me. I had mine overnighted and got it at 8:30am the day after it came out. And THAT was too long to wait!
The manager at the Verizon store in my town said they weren't getting any and the only way to get it was special order or online order.
Wanna bet they start stocking them after Oct 3rd???? That's when the $100 rebate ends, and the price goes up to $299.
My contract ended and Oct 2nd I'm ordering one so I can be as close to the 6.5 Rom update as I can, and that will give me 30 dys to review new phones. Kind of bummed I won't get to consider Diamond 2 (pocketnow.com just posted won't come to any other US vendor other than AT&T - I'm sticking with Verizon) so it looks like it's TP2 or Omni 2 for me.
Diamond 2 is coming out on Verizon, it's known as the Whitestone. http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/verizons-htc-whitestone-leaks-out-along-with-the-htc-mega-and/

I don't mean to be argumentative, but those websites are wrong more than they are right, especially with release dates. Hopefully it is coming next month though as that would be within my 30 days and I could see which one I like better.
The release dates for all Verizon phones leaked out, up to 1st Q of 2010. No Whitestone/other devices from HTC listed.
My local Verizon (corporate) Store is large in comparison to most in the state, and they claim that they don't stock HTC devices, except the Ozone.. in fact, when I got my TP2 last Friday I went to the store looking for a universal pouch and three techs. were amazed to see the TP2 in person lol. I guess they haven't trained on the TP2 yet here.
Hopefully they stock it in the near future, I like getting my cases from that store because of the warranty.

Now that you mention it, you're right! I haven't seen a TP1 at the Verizon kiost or the store ever since its release. Havn't see ANY HTC devices for that matter...weird.

Lol, went to my local Verizon store earlier today and the same thing happened. I walked in and asked if they had any accessories for my phone as i showed it to him. He immediately yanked it out of my hand and then asked, "Can I see that for a minute" as he ran, literally, and showed it to every other Verizon employee in the store including his manager. There were like 6 or 7 other people in the store that all noticed and then they all started asking me and the Verizon employee's about the phone, I felt pretty special They told me at the store they weren't gonna get any in, only internet orders or special order.
Is anybody in Cali and able to confirm whether stores got any?
Headed that way for the weekend, so would like to grab one in person.
Seems we are all getting the same reaction from the Verizon employees when we walk into the store. Was also looking for a universal case to tide me over. It was as if time stood still - little work was done for anyone else in the store for the next 5-10 minutes.
Other news: Have to replace mine due to the screen being scratched out of the box. Corp rep said they were out of stock for a replacement! Will know more tomorrow.
I have called around in my area (Phoenix) and have found some stores have them, some don't. None have them on display and none have accessories.
Still not in our Verizon or Sprints. Looked up on T-Mobile website for a corporate owned location (not reseller) and went on down. They have working TP2s. The resellers have dummy versions for size and weight comparisons.
The T-Mobile version battery door did have a memory card door (though hard to open) and I thought I saw a reset button! Couldn't swear to it. I may look into it and see if one of their backs fit the Verizon and see if they can be bought reasonably.
I won't get my TP2 for another week though. Kind of nice watching the forum and letting others who have time get all the bugs out. I wonder if all the clean ups and hacks will start all over again for WinMo 6.5. I wish they'd start new forums for TP2 GSM/CDMA version 6.1, 6.5, and custom cooked ROMs! very dificult to follow all the versions in one thread when they go 24 pages.
Update: well best plans of mice and men... PocketNow posted "OUT OF STOCK" for TP2 at Verizon. Sure enough went on line and entered an upgrade order and would not let me submit order during rebate period as it was "out of stock." Couldn't even put in basket to be fullfilled when arrives. Called Verizon, switched me around to different sales regions and what did I find? IN STOCK in California! Mine is now on the way to FL. Oh well, I get a great phone aweek early than expected.
Oh they BETTER NOT BE out of stock this Saturday! O_O I don't care if they have to steal it from a third world country, I WANT ONE! :'(

I too have been going through the same ordeal. I added a line to my wifes plan. From being told by many verizon reps that the TP2 will not be avaliable untill early next year I settled on the TP1. That was on 9/10/09, well, lo and behold, the TP2 hit Net sales on the 11th. So i went back to the store on the 20th in the hopes of getting a TP2 of my own. No dice. They couldnt even order me one from any of the options that they had. So, we went ahead and returned the TP1 and reactivated my wifes old lg env in the meantime so i could go home and place the net order. Well, all went fine and dandy and I was even able to order the unit for $149.99 w/no mail in rebates. But, two hours later i received a wonderful cancellation email from verizon due to lack of inventory. Slightly irritating, but understandable. Now, going on 4 days later, everything has reset on the account except for my ability to order via the website. After spending hours on the phone with just about every dept in verizon and being told that the phone is going to cost me anywhere from $250+ and still have to pay the restocking fee from returning the TP1 still no luck. I finally did talk with a phone sales rep that was the most helpful of anyone i have spoken with to date. He promised that as soon as he gets any word about the availability of the TP2 he will personally call me and have the order set to go asap. The only issue he said i might have is for some reason the original order that was canceled is not fully showing up in his system, but there is a reference to it in the account. According to him, when it becomes available again he will call me and if it still doesn't show the canceled order that i will be able to send him the email and they will fully honor it. We will see...
Sorry for the long rant, just had to get it off my chest. Its been a fairly irritating past week of dealing with VZW trying to get them to get their stuff straight.
Hopefully i will have a new TP2 in the next handful of days.
I went into my store on the 19th and he said they don't expect to ever get them, only direct fulfillment. So I ordered it online when I got home and it arrived the 22nd.
After 9 months of FRU'ing Touch Pro's, the guy at the Verizon store informed me that they finally had TP2's online as a possible Multi-FRU upgrade.
After more than a week of daily calls to Verizon and finally getting mine (after paying the 2 year contract price as a discount instead of receiving the multi FRU), I can say the following with relative certainty.
1. They don't anticipate displays in-store before the start of 2010. 2 local store managers claimed they have already requested them, and that Corporate was stalling the launch (much the same as the TP.)
2. If you order over the phone and complain enough about your existing phone, you can get it for the new every 2 price, pretty much regardless of your current status. Keep in mind, it will reset your next upgrade date.

ill be trying a couple stores by me tomorrow.. thanks for the heads up
the best part is that guys said we could buy it off contract for 350!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shucks, my local store hasn't gotten any in yet
wow thnx 4 the link! guess the beat tmobile out the door rofl! so att has it out earlier and @ cheaper non contract price! bad ass!
Oooooooh ****. 350? Is iphone 4 in stock nowadays? I'm going to buy that and sell it to get profit!
I'm going to contact the ATT stores near me and buy the captivate for 350 first to make sure. Does this require a data plan?
yes, all smart phones do
ill check with my local store first thing in the morning!!
Bleh my local store had none and sales guy never even heard of Captivate bleh
Just checked 3 AT&T stores in my town, they all have some undetermined amount "in the back" but seemed unwilling to check specific quantities. None of them let me purchase them. I guess I'll have to wait until 10am Sunday ):
I can confirm this.
350 + tax around 380 without contract.
Bought one in Allen, Texas
On Stacy's Road,
14 stocks now.

OOOOOHHH YES!! 350 for the phone and I can buy it off contract and sell an iPhone 4! I can pay for the phone and the 3G over it's lifetime! YES! I now love apple for making expensive devices and samsung for cheap competitors.
well I have called 4 local stores this morning so far.
1 I talked to the assistant manager who was more than happy to go check his stock to see if it was in the back. But told me it wasn't available until Sunday. After a little convo though he said to call back at 4 or so cuz they get their shipments between noon and 3, and if he had any in stock he would sell me one tonight.
Two of them just didn't answer the phone which really annoys me to no end.
The last store I called and asked "Do you have any captivates in stock?", the guy started chuckling and was like, "If I did I would be playing with it right now instead of answering the phones." Guy was very chill, thought he couldnt sell it til sunday but i told him I talked to a few managers at other stores and they were selling it to me as soon as it was available and he said he would call me back as soon as he got it in so I could come down and pick it up if I hadn't gotten one already.
Got mine yesterday from my local att store. I think they pushed up the release date to match the droid.
best of all it was only $350 no-commitment!!!!!!!!!!!

i think with all his connections working at Samsung MOM aTT he could his hands on a Box for a display phone perhaps! if he could take picture of box, he could of took one of the phone im just saying
Read it closely, said he didn't have another camera so he took it with the captivate. Keep reading on and you see another guy with a pic of the phone.
Went to a store in Irving TX at lunch and they told me they didn't have any yet, but that they were told they could sell them as soon as they got them in.
Store in Flower Mound told me I had to wait until Sunday. Seems none of them can keep their story straight.
Was there one? I mean, I walked into the VZW store in a college town at 9:05 and there were 7 employees (wearing special TBolt shirts), I was the 3rd customer, and only 1 of the others was looking at the TBolt.
Did anyone go into a store 3/17 and have them say "sorry, we sold out"?
The only advantage I can think of is they grandfathered pre-orders into the free buy back program, but I won't use that anyway, if I decide to sell ebay or craigslist will give a much better return.
The verizon stores by me were fairly crowded, but I hit one in the afternoon to get the car mount and they said they had a couple t-bolts left, although I did get the last car mount.
All three Verizon stores around me are out

Went to the mall to visit my local TMobile store and when I arrived they were hauling out all of the stock and their computers etc. The T Mobile person in charge told me it was just a physical inventory but two of the other reps are friends of mine and at first they said they could not say anything only they might be back looking different. After the while store was cleaned out they finally told me that if I wanted an Evo3d they could probably set me up with one in a few days. It looks like they are switching to Sprint, currently as of now there are no Tmobile stores within a 30 mile radius. I could understand switching to AT$T but why Sprint? I would rather deal with Sprint but just cannot understand why one of their stores would make the switch to Sprint before the deal with AT&T is even approved. Anyone else know anything or have seen or heard anything about T Mobile stores going to Sprint? This puts a whoile new light on whether or not I keep my replacement Sensation that arrives tomorrow.
its probably not a official t-mobile store.

Wow, same thing happened to me here in Illinois. Went into my local Mall and everything was gone. Sprint was right next to them, I ask the rep there if he knew what was going on and was told they just packed up and left. I also do not have another T-mobile store within 30 miles of me.

for the past couple months T-mobile have been pushing out dealers that have limited retail space (stores within stores) or unwilling to pay renovation in order to have more appealing like official mobile store.
authorized dealer.

I just found out that the gentleman I spoke with first was an actual T Mobile Dist employee of some sort. He was not very friendly and would not say anything except "physical inventory" as they carted the stuff away. It seems the store was Authorized Dealer (Into Mobile is the name of the firm (I believe) they were set up exactly like a so called corporate store.
most stores that are in the malls are independents,there is a official t mobile store across the street from our mall that has a t mobile store in it also,and its an independent dealer
I went to 1 T-Mobile store in my area and they said they "had two and just sold the last one".
Then he called 10 of the closest stores - TEN - and they all said they didn't have it. Has anyone else run into this? Any idea what's going on?

Probably like the v10. Release day I had to go to 3 stores. Called the third store from the second and he had one left and held it for me while I drove 20 minutes to get it.
The stores only got 2 or 3 each. I was afraid they were going to do it again this year. Sounds like at least in your area they have.
I had a bad feeling about it when they finally got the demo unit and just stuck it on the wall. Just up there with the stlylo and other lame phones. No special signage.
Why lg? And why t-mobile? This is an awesome high end flagship device! Why do they treat it like some ghetto prepaid low end cheap phone?
I pre-ordered mine on Tuesday and thankfully received it yesterday. (Thursday) I was going to wait to get it in store but was afraid to risk it.
I hope you can find one soon.
The store I went to had 5 in Stock when I went in, one other person was buying one and multiple people called about it. My first one was defective so I had to exchange and got their last one.
I heard one rep saying that they deliberately send them a low number, something about driving up pre orders. I also assume a lot of the note 7 guys are probably picking this up as it is the best replacement to the note.
I got the only one the store has. And the other local store also only got one in today.
Didn't want to risk this fiasco like with the V10, so I smartened up and pre-ordered mine on the 17th...received on the 20th and have been enjoying it since.
Sorry to hear that T-Mobile's out of stock. It's the first day of release and I'm sure they will get more in quite soon.

I preordered mine. Got it in 3 days.
I live in Long Beach, CA. Called to 6 stores before finding a store that only had 2 left. All the other stores that were out of stock, I asked how many do they usually get and they said about 3-4. I pre-ordered on the 18th and my expected shipping date was December. I cancelled my order and piked one up in person instead.

there is no way you that if you pre-ordered the 2nd day pre-orders were open that you would have gotten your phone in december. there was a glitch in t-mobiles system showing incorrect shipping dates. you probably would have gotten it before the actual release date like everyone else who pre-ordered. you wouldn't get a pre-order 2 months after they were available in the stores.

Coming from a banned Note 7 that I still use everyday, I waited for the release of the V20. Easy to do because Tmo didn't have any S7Es a week ago or so either. I really need to do an exchange because my Tmo bill is terribly jacked up from the Note7 experiment. Needless to say there was absolutely no stock anywhere to be found at the 7 stores between work and home Friday.
HOlly mollies! I have been calling to the 25 stores that are found within 20 miles from my house and none of them have it until finally i found one store that told me there would be 1 unit arriving tomorrow and i told him SAVE IT FOR ME! (i m going to actually replace mine because it has an issue with my simcard not been read and also it rebooted 5 times at random moments. ). I only have 4 days left to replace it without any fees charged

NO ONE IS GOING TO TAKE MINE!!!! Because the guy already put it in the system and scheduled by tomorrow at 1 pm so that i can go to pick it up! F**K everyone else who were looking for it inside that store lol! IT IS MINE!!!!!!! >=D! (i hope is not defective though) lol
I pre ordered mine on the 18th and it's on back order. Expected ship date as of now is 11/21 - 12/12. I can't even cancel the order if I happen to find one in the store because the $200 I'm getting for my note 3 was only for pre orders. If it doesn't ship soon I think I'm just gonna cancel my order and wait a few months to pick one up for $300 on Craigslist.
Wow
Given that lots are seitching their note 7 to comething else this is the only thing comparable
I got lucky. Walked into tmobile. They didn't have any in stock. Had them call another store that was 30 mins. away. They had one and the T mobile lady went and got it for me. I call that top notch service. Maybe because I was switching from Sprint, I don't know.
2 stores by me where out of stock today. I called tmo and ordered one, it will be here in up to a week. Cool thing was I could complete the trade in evaluation over the phone. I read the imei # to her and she processed it. I have 30 days to send in my g5 after I get the v20. I also will get a label to mail in the cheap Alcatel I bought for the $200 promo

Tmo started crippling the Note 7 this weekend. I made the decision to leave Sammy but no V20s in stock. "We can ship it to you." At the 3rd store, I walked out with a S7E.
