Quote from MerryHose385 :
In an initial ruling Tuesday, Dec. 17, a judge for the U.S. International Trade Commission decided that Motorola's phones infringe on key 5G patents held by Sony Ericsson. The smartphones in question include those in the Moto G, Edge, and Razr lineups. If the initial ruling by the ITC stands, imports of Motorola phones in the U.S. could be banned, all but eliminating their availability. https://www.yahoo.com/news/motoro...43596.html
That likely means future phones couldn't be sold. The ones already in use would still be usable - and by the time the case finally makes it's way through all the court appeals the current phones will be out of date anyway.

I got the shipment notification.
I decided not to port my old number and instead get a new number.
I located the IMEI number in the "Manage Lines" section.
Quote from lepton_ytht :
Nothing wrong, looks like you missed the window.
I got the shipment email this morning and within one hour I logged in and there was nothing in the "Manage Lines". It is still nothing after 6 hours. There is no transaction in the "Transactions" tab either. UPS is unable to provide the tracking details.

So what is the problem? TIA

Nothing, their system is just buggy. It's always YMMV, system isn't consistent.

Same with me. Logged in with 30 minutes of email,

I wanted to activate with new numbers without having to port. Any other workarounds anybody recommends?

Thank you for your reply. Is there still a chance to activate with a new number?

Noticed in Total - Samsung thread-

New number trick is not working and compulsory port-in is required during activation.

Also ordered on the 11th. Just got a shipping confirmation email.
I ordered on the 13th, and I posted something just above that I hadn't heard anything, well within an hour, I got the email saying my order was shipped, so far so good!

My first edge unlocked earlier today and am now using it with a at&t sim. Works great voice, data, and wifi calling all work. By the way! After the initial Month of TW I have been successfully using the phone with a TracFone sim until today.
I tried that yesterday (after unlocking the Total wireless Edge) - Calls and Text work but can't get data to work :-( when I put the sim in and started the phone, I DID get a message from at&t that the phone is NOT compatible on the at&t network - maybe I need to configure the APN from scratch??

I didn't have to change the apn settings. Make sure you restart your phone and then give it a few minutes to connect to a tower and decide what band is best for your area.

got unlocked today 12/20
text says 12/21

Mine unlocked on 12/21 (text stated 12/21 also), but I only checked after it restarted after running out of battery. Did you have to restart as well or did the "locked" stats just change automatically?

Quote from lepton_ytht :
So I kept one edge in sealed box to see if it will get unlocked after 60 days, today just after 9pm (PST), I checked the phone imei at https://www.tfwunlockpolicy.com/ and it told me it's eligible to unlock. Then I tried to submit unlock request and it seems it didn't go through like before. So I just opened box and power up the phone, the phone is still in locked status, then around 9:30pm I just reboot phone and check the unlock status by dialing #83865625#, then it's showing "processing", then it get unlocked. Then I check the imei on https://www.tfwunlockpolicy.com/ and now it's asking me if I want to reprocess the unlock request.It seems I checked too early so I am not sure if it's my web submission triggered the unlock or actually it's automatically unlocked.Any way, I never put the sim inside the phone in the whole process. My bet would be for at least moto phones, you can also get it unlocked without opening box.
Very useful advice

"Other", when it asks for your previous account just put in the Google voice number, and when it asks for the pin number just hit 0000. I was stuck at this point for a while until someone in the threat responded with this info. Hope it helps!
Thanks
