Playboy, Lets see the phone with you holding a piece of paper with my username on it
[Nexus 4 General] knoo:
2-3 weeks is too long!!

I called the number a day after ordering (hoping I my payment is fine) Google rep says, "Sir, we'll ship it by Thursday or Friday. In case you don't get a tracking number, please get back in touch with me" It's Tuesday now :( Yeah! I know, I ordered on Tuesday and called Google up a day after ordering :D I can't wait to get my precioussssss :D (But I'm still on the 2-3 week list of 27th. Dammit!!) I kept hitting proceed for 4 hours, if they screw up the order now, I will hunt the supply chain in-charge down (and take them back to India, and drop them off in a slum or something :P)
[Nexus 4 General] klownkillah:
Didn't you say mountain view earlier? The tracking page says Sunnyvale....
[Nexus 4 General] fresh_TD:
Straight fugazi..I can smell it:D:D
[Nexus 4 General] inseconds99:
Clearly it was a troll. Everyone proceed to ignore.
[Nexus 4 General] dyslexicpenguin:
I noticed that too. The shipping weights don't match up either...but I guess that MAY be the difference of the phones by themselves, and the packaging included? Seems suspicious.
[Nexus 4 General] Hchair:
If I'm not going to give you my full tracking number of address, why would I give you a picture of myself. I will entertain more reasonable requests tomorrow (e.g. picture of phones displaying this xda post, next to the packing slip), but I don't really have the disposition to be constantly defending my online "street cred".

I don't really have anything to prove, especially in light of the completely unprovoked name calling when I've just been trying to add meaningful information to the conversation.
[Nexus 4 General] dyslexicpenguin:
He doesn't need your face...just a hand holding the phone, with the label/his username. You have to understand our skepticism...we're not trying to get our hopes up, and you kinda came out of no where in terms of posting.
[Nexus 4 General] kyleds:
Thanks.

I'm good waiting, if it means that they are gonna send me a phone that doesn't have the problems the first batch did.
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
Seems like the XDA way of welcoming newcomers. Next request will be for a "ransom note" style picture with the day's newspaper and letters cut out of magazines and a shemale off the street. :good:
[Nexus 4 General] Cwebb03:
Well, it looks like I might find a way off the limbo line afterall. Just got off a Google+ Hangout with a guy that will sell me his for $400 tomorrow. He says he liked his iPhone 5 better XD
[Nexus 4 General] shaundroid:
I'm not sure how this proves you have received the phone.

Just noticed this, but your package weight is 2.10 lbs, when most I have seen show a 1.10. Not sure what the difference would be.
[Nexus 4 General] Hchair:
For real? Please pull up google maps, enter Mountain View, CA or Sunnyvale, CA. They're right next to each other. I'm done with this. Good luck getting your phones, everyone.

And as for why it's taking so long for me to post, I am required to wait 5 minutes between posts per xda policy for new members, sorry.
[Nexus 4 General] klownkillah:
Seriously? You think i don't know how far Sunnyvale and Mountain View are? Look to the left of this post you will see it says "Sunnyvale, CA"
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
I had to hit "THANKS" for calling someone fake in italian! hahaha

Dont listen to them they are the trolls. Nerdy ones at that. Thank you for all your useful information

Do it hell yea I paid the same for mine 8Gb? Now my better half gets a free phone if Google decides to actually my Play store order.

i wouldnt entertain any requests after the way they have treated you.

vultures i tell ya.... VULTURES!

enjoy your phones. happy for yas.
[Nexus 4 General] jMollys:
that is what i was thinking
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
Well duh, the whole foundation of XDA Developers is to develop hacks and ROMs. I don't see many juiceheads in Venice Beach or guidos in Revere, Mass. on XDA.

Don't let the door.... well you know the rest...
[Nexus 4 General] nphil:
Alright so they payment cleared more than 2 days ago, and I'm yet to receive my Nexus 4. Technically, am I entitled to get a refund on shipping?
[Nexus 4 General] fresh_TD:
My man came in out of no where with half ass info that didn't match.. What you think was going to happen. .Have you seen this thread?? Lol
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
Aren't you suppose to be at the beach? Isn't there a wave you can catch, maybe an undertow you can drown in......
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
Technically the two days doesn't start until UPS picks it up, but I'd ask about it regardless since it's all UPS and they should be able to get it from Louisville to Louisville easily enough once the tracking is generated. :eek: I doubt Google would complain too much about the $14 regardless.
[Nexus 4 General] le_bron:
I managed to order the 16gb version from German play store with Greek visa. I got a confirmation email with 1-2 weeks shipping time and my status says now "preordered". That means my order was accepted?
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
You're in the system, that's a good sign at least. :) No idea how the German side is going, but hopefully better than the craziness going on here in the US. :)
[Nexus 4 General] phermey:
lol. i get it, its the internet and one can expect no less. but you and a few others came at him before the info didnt match. yall just started trashing/discounting him because of it being his first post. i for one was educating myself on xda long before i ever found a need to register. there is nothing to say he didnt do the same.

me personally.... didnt believe it either. but was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. after his 'street cred' comment... i have no doubt he has them.
[Nexus 4 General] rumthin:
This thread has devolved into hilarity. Me like. :silly:
[Nexus 4 General] jMollys:
AND THE MADNESS STARTS AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just like in the last round google REFUNDED me $387.42.

GOOGLE*youtube ($387.42) :D

you LL2s and LL3s remember this fake out.

[Nexus 4 General] fresh_TD:
Yea we came at him hard.. lol but this is what happens when you come in here half stepping;););) is not personal. .I'm sure he'll live:D:D
[Nexus 4 General] phermey:
i dont tweet...but i would help a ya out if i did.

lol. heard.
[Nexus 4 General] Aoude.:
Am I safe?

Alright so i ordered my 16GB Nexus 4 at around 6PM EST on the 27th (2-3 weeks).

My Google Wallet currently still says pending on the transactions page.

Does it seem like everything is going smoothly for me? (so far at least :o)
[Nexus 4 General] Cwebb03:
Well looks like I can't get my phone, nor can I can cancel it! I just got off a CSR who said it would take 2 weeks to get a refund for it. Compared to 8 business days to get a tracer report from UPS, I'll take the tracer (assuming Google has shipped them at all). Too bad, because I had a 16 GB all lined up for $450. If anyone lives in Michigan and wants a 16 GB for $450, give me a holler and I'll hook you up.
[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
My order from 11/13/12 says 2lbs on the label but the tracking info that shows delivered is 1.10lbs.
[Nexus 4 General] jMollys:
did you card just get popped with a refund from a google developer?
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
As smoothly as possible, anyway. The one improvement is the management of expectations with the "X-Y weeks" statements up front. But obviously none of us can say for sure that any given person is "safe" because none of the statuses mean much. But you at least have your order showing and presumably have gotten email confirmation of your order, and until the estimated time elapses, that's about the most we can expect right now. (No red flags, but there's not much communication to expect until shipping, so...)
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
It's Reveah....please spell it right.
[Nexus 4 General] browngeek:
I'm also a 2-3 weeker with 2 16GBs. This is what I got from Google:

"Thanks for staying in touch with Google.

The estimated time of arrival isn't very clear at this time. The devices are still on backorder status, but we're trying really hard to get these devices out as fast as we can.

When you ordered, there should have been an estimated time on the page where you select the device. People who order today will be waiting 6-7 weeks, but since you ordered on the 27th, my guess is about 3-4 weeks. I'm sorry I can't get you a clearer estimate. Keep an eye on your inbox for your tracking number email."
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
As you would say, bite me LOL
[Nexus 4 General] Aoude.:
Should I call my credit card service to find out? (don't have it online)
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
Get a room, you two!
[Nexus 4 General] estallings15:
For real. I told you, she likes the biting.
[Nexus 4 General] jMollys:
nah.. dozens of people reported this same issue last week. They were all getting credits from random developers.

I bet it makes for an interesting day with the employees in the AR department. :laugh:
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
It happened with the first round of orders also. The refund will drop off in a day or so. Means nothing because my phone didnt ship for like a week or so after that happened.
[Nexus 4 General] Orange_furball:
I really don't even want the phone anymore. The wait is pretty ridiculous. By the time the 4 week wait is over there'll be some new hexa-core phone with 3gb of ram.

Seriously Google. Communication is essential with your customers. You are leaving the LL3 people in the dust while you sell more devices over seas? That's just bad business.

Sent from my Nexus 7
[Nexus 4 General] jMollys:
I know. I just think it is funny.
[Nexus 4 General] Aoude.:
Sorry I'm a bit confused. What do you mean getting credits from random developers?

Does this mean they just haven't shipped yet and the $380 or so will get charged when it ships?
[Nexus 4 General] jMollys:
nope. they actually refunded me the entire purchase price, but like NY said they will remove the credit.

People got the refunds labeled under all types of developers.
[Nexus 4 General] Aoude.:
GAHH!! :silly:

Thanks for the explanations, so bottom line, my phone is still going to be shipped?
[Nexus 4 General] jMollys:
HOPEFULLY!
[Nexus 4 General] dyslexicpenguin:
Literally, no one can truly answer that as a "bottom line." We're all making educated guesses as to what's going on. Google is A+ retarded, and can't seem to run an online store with any semblance of organization or communication.
[Nexus 4 General] inseconds99:
QFT:good:
[Nexus 4 General] Aoude.:
Alright thanks I appreciate it guys!

I'll keep my fingers crossed that I get passed pending during this week :P
[Nexus 4 General] kcbboy:
I'm hoping the same for myself but I really don't see it happening....
[Nexus 4 General] Cwebb03:
Interesting. After I told the CSR I didn't want to cancel my phone after all, he sent me an email giving me my IMEI number O.o

Anybody know if I can track it with that?
[Nexus 4 General] kcbboy:
How does he know your IMEI? They don't even have physical possession of the phones.
[Nexus 4 General] Cwebb03:
You tell me. I just got an email asking if I agree to the following statements:

- I am the original purchaser of this device with IMEI/Serial: XXXXXXXXXXXXX

- I authorize Google to remotely disable this device with IMEI/Serial: XXXXXXXXXXXXX
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Because that is the device reserved to you
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
If you got a shipping email, even with the yellow label, they have your IMEI.
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
I really think because this is so automated that they mate imeis to your shipping order, etc. Don't think it is something csrs have access to, only the consent bot
[Nexus 4 General] inseconds99:
That's interesting, I didn't know Google had any clue at all. I guess they aren't completely oblivious to everything around them.
[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
CWebb, what was your situation, i.e. original purchase date, shipping status, etc?
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
BTW dirty... You will love this bumper... I just hate the screen its hugging. Little bit of flex holding it on the right side though.
[Nexus 4 General] Cwebb03:
I'm not questioning why/how they got, more of wondering if there is anything I can do now that I have it along the lines of tracking where on this f!@3ing planet it is
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
It's in his signature, if you even cared to pay attention.
[Nexus 4 General] Cwebb03:
Your probably on mobile and can't see my sig, but I bought it at 12:57 on the 27th, got an email with a tracking number Friday night, haven't had the UPS update it all past "order processed and ready for UPS" until I reported a claim this morning
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
Its probably sitting on a pallet in the UPS-SCS warehouse, along with the dozens other people here, waiting to get noticed and moved over to the UPS Worldport building across the airport.
[Nexus 4 General] inseconds99:
I'm sorry after you reported your claim this morning, what does UPS say now?
[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:
Since when did FL start having state income tax? Damn that sucks. :) It wasn't like that in early 2000 (when I moved back up to NY)

[Nexus 4 General] Cwebb03:
At the top where the expected delivery usually is:

Last Location:

Narnia, MI, United States, Tuesday, 12/04/2012

Shipping Progress:

Narnia, MI, United States	12/04/2012	7:28 A.M.	Tracer request. / Trace only tracer.

(Naria=My city)

But after talking to UPS that doesn't mean it is where its at, only where it should be by this point in time. I found that out after getting on a conference call with a Google Play CSR that called UPS about it.
[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
Actually I didnt notice, but I was looking for more info than what was provided in his sig.

OK, basically wondering if you had the YLoD, seems like you did. That's good news then it seems like people in this situation have a phone set aside for them, just the process of getting is shipped out by UPS-SCS is slow.

Claim thru Google or UPS? I requested a tracer at 12:10AM 12/4/2012 and haven't heard anything. I haven't bothered to call UPS or Google since they both seem to shift the blame and neither have been able to provide any satisfactory help.
[Nexus 4 General] mournahan:
What time is was your order placed?
[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
ST = Sales Tax, they have sales tax, but no state income tax.
[Nexus 4 General] yokuyuki:
I was limbo level 3. Still promised a refund though. Thanks for the info. I emailed them but they're taking forever to respond.
[Nexus 4 General] kaalatittar:
yep, they have IMEI down to each user... talk about how much data they can associate with each user n then use that to make more $$$
[Nexus 4 General] Psilocin:
Partial blame goes to all the people who placed two or more orders just to try to get their phones faster. Hopefully the times might improve little bit once they get cancelled and sorted out. Long way to go for me.
[Nexus 4 General] kcbboy:
it did drop to 5-6 weeks vs the previous 6-7. Not sure why that happened but cancellations might have played a part.
[Nexus 4 General] mhs409:
how much time do you give before you consider yourself in a limbo?

I ordered only 7 hours ago, it shows in wallet as pending, got an email containing play store order receipt.

I guess, I am in limbo2, if 7 hours count!
[Nexus 4 General] ultma75:
Found a nexus 4 16gb on Craigslist for $430 might buy it and say screw it on waiting on google to get there **** together

Limbo only counts for people from Nov 13
[Nexus 4 General] Cwebb03:
Make sire you can cancel your order before you buy it. Since mine already "shipped" they wouldn't let me
[Nexus 4 General] inseconds99:
Not much more then $349 + tax + shipping. If that were in NY I'd buy that and sell mine when it came in. I have someone trying to trade me a New 8GB for my Optimus G and another trying to sell me a 16GB, New T-Mobile Starter sim and a TPU case for $520. If he came down to $475 I'd take it and sell mine when it came in.
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Phone is on the way now?
[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
There is a BNIB 16GB on NH CL for $440 with BNIB bumper. You know dirty would take the bumper off your hands for $50, leaving you with a net of $390 for the phone, which is real close to Google Play + tax + shipping money.
[Nexus 4 General] geokuttan:
It might not make a bug difference but....https://www.change.org/petitions/go...onse-on-the-nexus-4-shipping-backorder-fiasco
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Seems like a total hoax. Why would they sell a good device for pretty much zero profit unless they used an upgrade from T-Mobile and just got an order for the bumper from the play store. I would be leery of this
[Nexus 4 General] klownkillah:
392.22 for California residents from the play store... just saying, for comparison I mean.
[Nexus 4 General] inseconds99:
NH CL?
[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
No tax in NH, puts total at $383 or so. So (s)he's making around $65.

NH Craig's List.
[Nexus 4 General] ImSherlocked:
My nexus was delivered yesterday. I never got shipping confirmation! :)
[Nexus 4 General] inseconds99:
Congrats, though that scares me because I am not always home and if the item gets delivered with no info, which means I will not be here for it, it will get stolen in my neighborhood if its sitting in front of my house.

To far or I would take he/she up on that offer.
[Nexus 4 General] stryker09:
Just submitted a claim. Lets see where this goes in the morning.
[Nexus 4 General] dyslexicpenguin:
To submit a claim with UPS do you have to wait until it is officially "late?" I don't see anything on the tracker page to submit a claim or start a trace.
[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:
If you got a backorder email I think it's 3 weeks from the 15th.

better then nexus 4 phone??

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpAOwJvTOio
[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:
This happened to many of us that were in limbo with 13th orders. Seems they do that to make sure they don't double charge you, which is really strange. I find it bush league. My bank would not even entertain it because it couldn't find a matching transaction. It is so baffling that they do that transaction with some random developer account. What is wrong with doing it using Google *Devices? It boggles the mind what hacky jank is driving that logic.
[Nexus 4 General] trekkie1701:
Well that was about as cruel as can be!!! I am sitting with the yellow box of death on my Nexus 4 order (ordered 27th, shipping confirmation on the 29th, charged on the 30th) and came home to a box from Google on my doorstep. Queue much excitement until I opened it and found the Nexus 7 I ordered for my Mother-in-law at the weekend which Google hasn't even sent me a shipping confirmation yet! Grrr.
[Nexus 4 General] inseconds99:
Time for bed I will update my status tomorrow afternoon or evening at some point, gl everyone and keep us posted.
[Nexus 4 General] Hatzy:
Ugh. Every time I see or hear this vid I immediately want to find the tallest structure near me to swan dive off of.

I actually was excited here (exact same circumstances as you) until I got down to the N7 part. Thought there'd be hope for all of us. Dammit, what a charlie tango this is. I'll keep waiting patiently until the end of the week.
