Shipping Confirmations and Tracking Numbers - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

EDIT
Most everyone who pre-ordered has received a tracking number and a
"Scheduled For Early Delivery On:
Thursday, 05/24/2012"
So please don't re-post that information.
Feel free to continue discussion on other shipping/tracking/delivery related topics.
THANKS!
old...
Everyone who has placed a Evo 4G LTE Pre-order is expecting shipment information ANY MOMENT NOW.
Sprint (who I placed my order with about 2 minutes after pre-orders opened) should be sending notification emails out to us as soon as out phones ship, but I consider that unlikely to happen in a timely fashion.
Please use this thread to post when you receive your shipping confirmation/tracking number so that the rest of us can start refreshing our respective order status pages furiously.
The currently accepted Sprint methods of checking for tracking numbers are:
1. Wait @ your email inbox for a confirmation email
2. Visit www.sprint.com/myorder and type in your order number
It is important to note here that the order number found on your sprint.com order history (starts with DM...) will give you bogus info here. You need to find the preorder confirmation email that has an order number starting with "OY"
3. Gordon Ramsay's method here
Note: Some people have reported inconsistent information from this method and it may not be 100% accurate. Still, please report any interesting results if you try it.
If you'd like me to add anything to the OP about other pre-order suppliers, post "@addisonhammer"
Good Luck, and PLEASE REPORT ANY SHIPMENTS!
Note: Please keep idle chatter to a minimum, I'd like to avoid the banhammer here. The point is to crowd-source Evo Shipment info so I can actually work today instead of just wearing out my F5 key. I can't do that if people post on here bi7chin' and moanin' or talking about the SG3 or iPhone. So don't.

This just gonna be for sprint orders or all orders?
Edit also probably a good idea to not have chit chat as well so people don't have to read 15 pages of nothing or same information.

Should I view the lack of posts in this thread to mean that nothing was shipped out last night to pre-order customers?
Personally I'm unable to track by reference and the various traps I've placed (UPS/MyChoice, Sprint order status, etc) have yet to trip for me - but I was hopeful that at least some had shipped overnight.

Yes, but it is still pretty early. Considering the sheer volume of posts on the original "Preorder/Customs" thread late into the night (before being closed...) i would expect that volume on XDA wont pick up until later this morning.

I tried the methods and didnt find info about my tracking numbers, but as several others have posted, many times items are shipped and delivered before tracking numbers are posted.
I will continue to read the threads today and hope to have a package when I get home from work tonight. If not, hopefully it will ship tonight and get it tomorrow.

Anyone that has been using UPS MyChoice for a while. You ever have it not tell you a package was on the way and have it show up? Just curious.

If it ships UPS Basic or UPS SurePost it won't notify you.

I just called Best Buy about my order and the rep told me that they are "officially shipping as we speak."

Best Buy is open this time? Are they shipping to stores or shipping to you?

UPS process verified?
*EDIT: I withdraw my questioning of this process. Even though there were 2 reference numbers created, I can limit the date to a smaller window, and my tracking information is now available.
hey guys,
i've been keeping up with this whole debacle since i placed my pre-order on may 7.
has anyone actually verified this suggested tracking number retrieval process that everyone is clinging to for hope? at least for me, i'm 99% sure it's not the information i'm trying to find. whenever i follow this process, the UPS system says that my delivery was completed 5/17/12 at 1:05pm in North Carolina.
i live in Oklahoma... additionally, Sprint still lists my order as in progress, not completed.
there haven't been many others that i've seen have much or any luck with this either. most people can't even get it to find their elusive shipment information in the UPS system.
just wanted to throw this info out there for anyone receiving strange results while using the suggested method.

Sounds like it was just a coincidence that another shipment used a reference number that matched your Sprint account number.
I'm not saying one way or another if the Sprint account number is used by UPS as a reference number, just saying that with the massive amount of shipments in their system, it isn't unlikely for their to be a few coincidental matches.

I called the 800 number. I would assume they are shipping both. I asked about pre-orders specifically.

To the stores, maybe, but to customers, I wouldn't assume that...because that would result in an awful lot of Sprint pre-orderers that would be mad as hell...and I don't think Sprint would be foolish enough to allow that.

I have actually suspected this method myself... but I recently completed an order for a new iPhone for my wife (i know... yuck) and that order shows up when i do the UPS "Search by Reference" method.
Interestingly, if i look at the order information page, it shows the iPhone order as "Pending" and has no tracking number. Hmmm....

Best Buy is one of Sprint's biggest customer. Making Best Buy happy is better then any one customer sprint has.

Ok. Where are the shipments? I thought for sure they would have started rolling out the door by now.
I don't buy the sprint shipping notification is slow line. UPS tracking should be telling us something by now.
