Does it squeal with the phone plugged in and charging?

My 'brick' that came with my Samsung Tab 7.7 squeals when plugged in with no device on the charger. However once you plug in a tablet or phone, it goes quiet. Wife can't hear it, and thinks I'm nuts. But it will keep me from sleeping at 5' from my bed.

It only squeals when my phone is plugged into it.

Between the Note 4 Developer Edition and the Nexus 6, I'm chasing my tail trying to buy a phone :p

Not sure if I will see either one before the Note 5 comes out next year... but I will keep refreshing the GP page, hoping to hit the jackpot but Wednesday's over so it looks like another week before they're restocked :(

Thinking Nexus now? There are people who run scripts that put the phone in cart but you have to manually pay. Of course you better be at your computer when this happens.

Apparently not only is the AT&T logo on the back, they also inserted their logo and jingle into the boot animation:

AT&T's Nexus 6 Does Indeed Have The Globe On The Back, Plus A Globe And Jingle On The Boot Screen, Because AT&T

Oh great. I can't wait to see what Verizon does to theirs. :rolleyes:

I hope the GPS phones don't get blacklisted by Verizon later on...I can totally see them somehow convincing google to make "fastboot oem unlock" not work on the VZW N6, then blacklist all but their own VZW N6s. I will take their sim card out, burn it, and promptly go to the nearest Tmobile or AT&T and switch my service over. AT&T is evil, but at least it's GSM and you can always BYOD.

I know UPS tracking isn't always the best, but my order has been stuck on "origin scan" since I got my shipping confirmation on the 18th. It still says "on time" for delivery on the 21st though so I'm not panicking yet :)

Anyone else have this?

Yes I sent it up to receive texts so it will give me updates on every transaction. Haven't received one yet today but its in Texas and I'm in Maryland, so time will tell.

Out of curiosity, is AT&T known to give any guff when folks go in to ask to swap their micro sim for a nano?

Depends on the rep. I've dealt with in-store reps whose middle name was "guff" and others who were nice as can be. I fully expect to have them swap out the sim for free since the website clearly said at checkout "no activation fee" (which I saved in .pdf form for those guffy reps.)

My luck i'll get this rep ....
