Shortages on iPhone 6 Plus 128GB Space Grey in UK?

I want to buy an unlocked 128GB iPhone 6GB in Space Grey. I've spoken to Apple, and they suggested I reserve one at my local Apple Store (Princes Street, Edinburgh) via the following link:
https://reserve.cdn-apple.com/GB/en_GB/reserve/iPhone/availability
I was told to try shortly after midnight, as this is when the stock levels are updated on their system. However, whenever I try to reserve a phone I'm told the one I'm after is unavailable (there are always gold ones available, though), and, perhaps more to the point, that there are none available anywhere in the UK.
Are there shortages of the silver and space grey 128GB iPhone 6 Plus?

Sorry to hear that, @bobwilmes. The weird thing in the UK is that it appears there are loads of gold 128GB iPhone 6 pluses to go round, but no silver of grey ones: http://www.istocknow.com/uk
I checked that link earlier today and every Apple Store in the UK had the same stock indication: every iPhone 6 Plus was in stock, apart from the silver 128GB and the grey 128GB!
No idea how Apple's manufacturing, assembling and delivery systems work, but it does seem weird that they can make the grey case for a 64GB grey 6 Plus and the electronics for a 128GB gold 6 plus, but they can't put the two together. If I was a millionaire I'd just buy two phones and get someone two put together the phone I want from the parts!!

I ordered my iPhone 6 plus 128GB space gray on 9/26/14 and the status still hasn't changed from in process

I ordered my iPhone 6 plus 128GB space grey on 9/26/14 and my status hasn't changed from in process yet.

Awesome, DeckNobets! Waiting is never easy! As
h00t mentioned, you'll be able to see a change from Processing once the phone officially ships, then you'll see the tracking number. Since you've received a confirmation email that your order was submitted, any additional information throughout the fulfillment process will be sent to that same email address. Congrats on your new iPhone Plus!

What solutions are available for fixing iphone 6 plus 128gb with continuous reboot (700 apps)

Upgraded iPhone 5 64gb phone to iPhone 6 Plus 128gb and phone went into cycling reboot. Have 1260 apps installed on iPhone 5 with flawless functionality using IOS 7.1.2. Apple Genius Bar unable to get working and since phone was bought at Apple online, could only offer refund, as an exchange phone would not be able to be returned if problem existed on exchanged phone.Something to do with my phone coming directly from China, even though Apple recommended having an easier buying experience using the internet. BTW, 3 employees that I was handed off to said they had never seen this symptom, even after doing Google search in front of me showing a good number of reports of this issue. Are employees hiding this situation from customers or just not engaged in Apple products to be knowledgeable of current issues?
Some dialogue indicates that there may be iPhones with MLC NAND flash memory instead of the cheaper TLC NAND flash memory that may solve this issue. How can I request this hardware fix? Does Apple notify distributors of serial numbered devices that have this upgrade? Are distributors able to offer this upgraded hardware to the end users that happen to fall in this statistically low percentage group that need this type of fix to return functionality to their purchase?
Coincidentally, my iPad2 (64gb) developed the exact same symptom when I upgraded from 7.x.x to 8.1.1 (which was purported to fix this problem) which suggests that it is linked to the 8.x code in some way). I was able to return functionality by restoring from a backup (thru iTunes) and limit apps to 468 installed.
By my iPhone 6 Plus being returned with no warranty exchange, I fear that no data was collected to further the need for Apple to gather an appropriate degree of accurate information to process this need respectfully.
Frustrated (and loyal owner of every iPhone to date) and looking for answers.I am forced to continue use of iPhone 5 with 7.1.2 (no hope of going to 8.x) and somehow being cut out of group that had battery recall with this phone needing 3 charges/day and NO upgrade path at the moment.

I had the same problem, crashes every 5 minutes or more. Apple support did as if it was my problem with apps, no hardware problem. I did return the iPhone and are using my old iPhone 5 again, with all my apps and IOS 8.1.1, no problems, no crashes. Now I think of a Samsung Note Edge, was a Apple supporter since iPhone 3.

Safari keeps crashing on my iPhone 6 plus 128GB

safari keeps crashing on my iPhone 6 plus 128GB. Its done this since I bought it in Nov 2014. I've rebooted, soft reboot. Any suggestions?

Hi purpleoz,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that Safari on your iPhone is not functioning as you would expect. In this situation, there are a few different steps I would recommend.
First, I would recommend clearing your history and website data as described in the attached article.
Safari web settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
After the data has been cleared, I would recommend closing Safari completely as described in the next attached article.
Force an app to close in iOS - Apple Support
After Safari has been closed, reset your iPhone again. After the reset, open Safari fresh and use it as you normally would. If the issue continues, please let me know.
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Best regards,
Joe

What is the status of the iPhone 6 plus 128GB pre-orders?

Does anyone know the delivery status of the iPhone 6 plus 128GB pre-orders made within the first hour on the verizonwireless.com website? I fully completed the process online for a silver iPhone 6 plus 128GB and received three indications of a 9/19 delivery date (an order summary webpage, an order confirmation webpage, and an order confirmation email with the correct phone upgrade order). My online verizonwireless.com account doesn't show any orders (in the past 120 days), but when I put in the pre-order confirmation number and my last name I get the message "We received your order and it is in process. Expected Ship Date: Not available at this time" During Friday and Saturday the date showed 10/14 (not even the 9/19 on the three confirmations). The question is what is the real delivery date, and was the pre-order really even received? Is there a Verizon rep online that might be able to check if I provide the necessary numbers and tell me what is the status of my pre-order? Thanks anyone for any assistance.

Thank you so much for that information! That is great news! And the first straight answer I've been able to find!! And it makes sense!! I was able to start my order around 2:57am and then with some confusion over losing my unlimited plan & having to choose a new one I probably didn't get the order in until around 3:15-3:20....But my confirmation email didn't come through until 4:55am and I know I was definitely done ordering the phone WAY before then! So I bet they did the first cut off at 4:55 then sent out confirmation emails for those who made the cut! Phew! It's all making sense now thanks to your information! I ordered the 6+ 128gb in gold btw and I can't wait, my 4s is still 3G and it's long overdue for retirement!!

How can i solve my upside down problem in main screen in iPhone 6 Plus 128gb

i have a upside down problem in my iPhone 6 plus 128gb . When i wake up the phone, in the main window all apps are seen in upside down position. and you can not fix it without opening the phone again. i have searched the internet about this problem and i have seen that lots of users have the same problem too.

Is the portrait lock on control panel off or on Is the lock switch on side of iphone off or on Have you tried this press & hold power button & menu button hold both down Until you see Apple Logo you wil not lose any data.

IPhone 6 Plus 128GB Pre-Order

Hello, I preordered the iPhone 6 Plus 128GB at 2:58am ET and was shown a delivery date of 09/19. However, when I received the email and check my status online, it's showing a delivery date of 10/14. Why is there a difference when I was shown one thing and completed the pre-order as soon as it was available. I'm contemplating cancelling my service with Verizon over this because of this. I want the date of 09/19 that I was shown when my order submitted. Once again, why is there a difference? I'm quite upset over this matter and wish for it to be resolved right away.

I suggest you call and do the automated order status checker.
I placed mine 10 minutes after midnight PDT, both the page and the email stated delivery by 9/19. Later when I checked the online status it moved to 10/14, now it's unavailable.
If you call them using the automated order status checker, you MIGHT have a newer status update. At least my says "pending shipment". I will just have to wait and see when it goes out.
Good luck to everybody who pre-ordered! It was a huge mess.

What is the actual status of my Silver iPhone 6 Plus 128GB preorder that was confirmed completed by 3:35AM EST? Reps and websites and emails are ALL messed up.

So, I placed my order by 3:35 AM EST for my Silver 6 plus 128GB. All the way through the process, from selecting the phone to the submission confirmation screen on the web it stated delivery by 9/19. I received my email confirmation and that showed the order date as 9/12 and the delivery date as 9/12. Well I knew that would not be right.
So then I go online to check the order status and it states the order has been received and the expected SHIP date is 10/14. WHAT?!?
So I called Vz and spoke with a rep who stated that he wasn't sure why it showed that but my ship date would be 9/19. Call #1
Well that's fine, I knew he probably mixed those words up.
So then I check on 9/13 to see if it was updated online, still showed 10/14. So I call again and this time the Vz rep places me on hold then comes back and says I am sorry to say that your expected ship date is 10/14. Flustered and irritated I ask how that can happen and change from all the other notices stating the 19th (or sooner according to the email which she laughed about). Call #2
So today, I decide to check again after Noon EST and now all day it has said that the expected ship date is NOT AVAILABLE?
Checking this community, looking at tweets and posts I see all conflicting information, some people getting getting ship notices but most of those are just the 6 and not the plus.
Where can I find a straight answer. I have seen another poster state that anyone who completed their order the first couple hours of ordering on the 12th will definitely receive on the 19th according to what they have been told by a Vz rep but honestly with the mixed messages I have seen personally I am not putting a lot of faith in what was told to him.
OH, also I can only check my order by my preorder confirmation and not my order number. When trying to check with my order number it gives an error message saying that is not a valid number.
I have been a customer for almost 20 years, and this is making me think about switching.

We know everyone is super exited about these great phones. As your order moves through the process, you can check the status at http://bit.ly/RjmCUB. You may not be able to see a change from Processing until it officially ships, then you'll see the tracking number. If you've received a confirmation email that your order was submitted, any additional information throughout the fulfillment process will be sent to that same email address.

Iphone 6 plus 128gb rebooting

I waited very patiently for my new iphone 6 plus to arrive. After waiting for a few weeks, it came and I was in awe. Until the phone started crashing and rebooting periodically. I have been updating when new releases of IOS8 comes out, but this seems to more of a TLC nand problem I've read about in the trades. Can anyone tell me if this is going to be a recall oor in the field repair apple will conduct or do we need to bring it into the store for a replacement?

I have this problem as well. Did you ever get a resolution?
I have a large number of Apps on my iPhone 6 plus (940 currently) and have 5-10 crashes a day.
This is my second iPhone 6 plus and have the same issues. I had no problems until my iPhone gets close to 500 apps on it, then it starts with the random reboots.
Currently I can recreate a reboot just by going to the app store and trying to download an app.
I am wondering how many apps you have had on your phone when the issue started?
I also tried to reset my phone and load apps without restoring from a previous backup and got the same results.
I never had this issue with iPhone 4 but I'm pretty sure it's not a NAND memory problem that I've seen mentioned online.

Now for something completely different.... status of iPhone 6+ 128GB Space Grey pre-order?

Yes, just like everyone else asking the same question on this form, I placed a pre-order on 9/12 and received my emailed order confirmation from VZW at 2:26 pacific time. Now I get NO information from the Order Status page - only "We received your order and it is in process." and "Shipping Date: Not available at this time." ... both of which tell me nothing.
So here we are on 9/16 more than four days after my pre-order was placed and that's the best Verizon Wireless could do? I realize they are handling millions of orders, but I find it hard to believe that they really haven't worked through the first 2 1/2 hours of orders yet .... after four days?
PS - Verizon Wireless Customer service - don't bother sending me a link to the Order Status page that I am already checking far too often.

mallen7321
I am referring to this thread: https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/835473
I still have no CC charge, no additional emails of any kind, and still just getting this helpful info from the Order Status page:
We received your order and it is in process.
Expected Ship Date: Not available at this time.
I am afraid that for me, it is looking like there will be no joy in Mudville until next month

IPhone 6 Plus Screen Hazy Grey, Unresponsive

Recently upgraded to iOS 8.2. Had 2 episodes today where I received:
1.) A text message and
2.) a phone call, where... In each case the screen was hazy (grey) with static.
I could not get the screen to respond with a swipe, so had to press the power button twice to restore the display and allow it to work. Any ideas? Software/ Hardware? I know it's hard to say...

Sorry to hear that man i had the same issue,it must be the hot weather but went away when i broke my screen:0 got it repaired at http://www.fixontherun.com/ .i also heard if you put your phone in a bag with rice it goes away but the iphone needs to be covered with rice... let me know if it works.

Iphone 6 plus 128gb blue plastic sticking out from the brand new phone

I entered into a 24 mths phone plan and got the iPhone 6plus 128gb. I later discovered (after unboxing), a blue plastic sticking out from the phone (on the side). Anyone experienced the same thing before? Do you think I will get a replacement from Apple? The phone company told me to go to apple retail store. It is 1 hr away from where I live!!

I went to the retail store and they told me the mobile phone carrier should have just swapped it for me in store! So had to drive back to get it replaced at the original store.. o well at least they admitted that it was DOA and so they didnt ask too many qns as a result.
The genius at the store said that it is a leftover plastic inside the phone. It should have been removed during the manufacture but obviousky it was not.
Thanks
