[Nexus 4 General] jonkillops:
:rolleyes: Ordered on 11/27 with 4-5 week expected shipping, and they have my play order now at 12/6 pre ordered. What does it mean?!? I'd take a double rainbow as a sign! So frustrating, that people who have ordered after I did are getting theirs delivered where others seems stuck in limbo. The canned email responses from play support are like insult to injury.

I used to think that way...Then I held a Nexus.
[Nexus 4 General] uEih:
I'm really curious what are some issues people are having that cause a rma. I haven't been following these threads ever since I got mine but from some stuff I've heard, speaker problems, camera, what else? I've heard of screen flickering and sometimes I feel like it happens to mine when it's trying to adjust its brightness but it doesn't happen as often as it did in the beginning. I'd like to be sure that I got a good device.
[Nexus 4 General] RealiZms:
Well the CSR's immediate supervisors aren't much different from the CSR's themselves...They're just much better liars and can map out a 2 week schedule for 20 employees. The "manager" is supposed to come up with a creative story to put your mind at ease. They know nothing more than the CSR's.
[Nexus 4 General] jasaad:
what link are u using to get the canned email?

i am sending lots of email some get answered with no real info from real persons

hi guys, i ordered mine from the playstore on the 4th when they became available again in the uk, my order says 1-2 weeks for delivery, has anyone else recieved any details on shipping or anything that ordered on the 4th from the uk playstore, 2 weeks is coming up on tuesday so i best find a shipping email 2moro at some point.
[Nexus 4 General] ImHavenHart:
A friend of mine is still awaiting his phone. He ordered on the 27th right when they went on sale West Coast time. He was recently told that it would ship the evening of the 19th but a lot of 27th limbo'ers were told the same thing so he's not holding his breath by any means.
[Nexus 4 General] Jrob2k:
Hey guys, I just wanted to share my unlucky story before taking this thread off of my subscribed list. I've been crawling it since the beginning and feel for everyone that's been screwed by Google on this.

I was one of the unlucky stiffs that ordered on release day and had to wait 3 weeks for the phone. My Order went through at 2pm that afternoon and I was backordered until the end of November. When I finally got the Nexus it had a faulty radio so after a week of troubleshooting I requested a replacement. I kept on Google about the replacement, emailing and calling every few days for status updates. I was told it would be delivered within the week and not to worry. Then one dark December evening...(Dec 14th) i received an email telling me i would have a 3-4 week wait because the RMA stock was backordered as well. Now I've learned my lesson from reading this thread. That may not be the case for all, but apparently it was for me. Keep in mind they put a hold on my account for the price of the phone when I first ordered the replacement and its just now dropping off. The phone was great for the week I had it before I realized it couldn't switch between towers and I was missing calls etc, but i just dont really want it that bad anymore. Not enough to go without a phone for another 3-4 weeks and let google hold another 350. I cancelled the RMA and requested a refund. They say i should have it 14 days after they receive my device. I went out yesterday and purchased a Lumia 920, partially to spite google (....a moot gesture im afraid since i love my nexus 7 and im not getting rid of it), partially because after using a vanilla jelly bean device nothing else running android measures up IMO, and mostly out of curiosity. Ive had issues with my google account for years that google cant fix, like a useless calendar because of endlessly multiplying events. This allowed me to set up a new outlook calendar. So far im very happy with my Lumia, and even though it doesnt have nearly the developer support, app selection or following as android, i think i will have it for a while. I mean hey, I've always got my nexus 7.

My experience with Google play was pretty horrible. Ironically I received a survey right after purchasing my Lumia. I pretty much explained my situation, put down extremely dissatisfied for everything, and noted that the CSR's should get a raise for taking calls during the nexus 4 debacle and the decision makers should go gargle acid.

I will probably check back every now and again, but I can finally rest....at least a little, having a phone and not waiting for an email from google. With a tracking number.

I hope you all have better luck than me and receive your device without too much hassle.

I'm on the phone now with a rep, Janelle, who said she doesn't see an rma in the system for me, only my original 11/13 order. Told her that's hogwash since I have the order confirmation and I've spoken to managers and reps about it the last 2 weeks. Trying....to....take.....deep.....breaths. Been on hold for 10 minutes and this music is making me homicidal.
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
I really hope that guys email was for the worldwide base and not just the UK. Seems they can fix the issues of one country better than the whole system at once though so that doesn't leave me all that optimistic. Isn't that guy just a UK rep?

I really believe the devices listed as sold out are in an effort to fill their backlog or hopefully rectify the problems. Makes sense given it really has just been a preorder setup since the 27th. I still don't have all that much hope that they will actually get my rma before the end of the week. Even less hope it wont be ridden with defects... Doubly so with the n10! Bah humbug!
[Nexus 4 General] thanamesjames:
I haven't checked the thread in a few days, has anyone reported good news about 8GBs from 11/27? I'm in the 4-5 week (the shortest) bracket, and have only heard of one shipping at all.

I don't know if she's stalling or what but she's asking ridiculous questions like "now I see a rep sent you an email on the 1st to order your rma, did you do that?" Really? Did I click on the link to order my rma two weeks ago? Oh, is that how it works, I'm suppose to order an rma? Huh, who knew. I don't get why she would ask that question, other than to give me a heart attack.

Please don't lynch me for being ignorant, Boston, but didn't you get a new order number for the RMA? Did you give her the new order number?

(Please don't bite my head off if I didnt see the obvious! lol)
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
Why would I bite your head off for that? Yes, I have a new order number, and I didn't give it to her at first, once it became clear that she couldn't find it or see it in the system I did give it to her, been on hold ever since I gave it to her. Going on something like 20 minutes on hold.
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
She's got you on hold trying to think of another lie to tell you since you already heard most of their make-believe gold.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
Omg omg omg, the call dropped, or she disconnected it!!!!!!! 33 minutes on hold to only get disconnected.

Haaaahaaa, I caught the "donut" and fixed it, but I guess not before you caught the boo boo :) Darn Swype. I'm not so sure they see what I see, because apparently something is very wrong for her not to see the rma and put me on hold this long. Maybe she's hoping I'll hang up...she isn't getting off that easy, I'll hold all day. Now I'm curious as to what she'll come back with, I mean, if she has me on hold all this time and comes back saying "oh, I found it, yup, you're on back order" I think I'll just flip my poo.
[Nexus 4 General] mailrachit:
Even I am waiting for my 8 GB N4 ordered on 11/27 1:10 p.m. PST (4-5 week'er). What time did you order?

I have seen very few N4 8 GB shipments of those who ordered on 11/27. Among those posts, the latest time of order that I saw was of 12:36 p.m. PST.
[Nexus 4 General] stevessvt:
Or she'll come back on and say 'oh....crap,...your still here....er.....I mean....still researching this, please hold. ...'
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I don't know why I bother really, it just gets me heated. Nothing more. But I was told I would get an update in 24 hours and it's been over 48. Whatever. I'm going to the shooting range so I'll get to take out my frustration. I'll be concentrating on the bulls eye with Google in mind.

[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I was very surprised she didn't check in periodically to say "still researching", but she only did that once to ask a few stupid questions, like did I order my rma yet. No, I'm calling for a make believe rma.
[Nexus 4 General] stevessvt:
Thats because she was eating subway for lunch while you sat on hold.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I really, honestly, truly, got disconnected. I had a feeling it was going to happen, the hold was just too long. Now I don't know if I should call back because there could be something really wrong or what.

And they answered me that it:

And now saying that my order will be also late...

UK order Dec 4th @5:06, status change pending to preorder a few days ago, nothing else until today my date changed to 15th Dec also.
[Nexus 4 General] thomas.clark:
Just went and read it thanks to your tip. I appreciate his "unreserved apology," but two things stand out: 1) He's over the UK, and can't do much for me, and 2) He hasn't said anything different than Play Support has been saying all along - except that he shifted the blame to LG for not supplying enough units.

He reiterated the free shipping thing, which was already promised for missing the original 3-5 day shipping window. He didn't mention anything about violating first-in-first-out, or about missing the 3-week backorder window. Frankly, I think they owe us a lot more at this point.

If my phone does ship soon (I have my doubts), I'm not going to open it unless they confirm, in writing, that I won't be charged for it. I always wanted the phone, and never intended to resell it, but that's how I'm leaning at this point.

You are completely correct my brother but it seems a lot of Nov 13th orders have at least changed date just recently which is more than most have seen for over a month. Also as far as Dan goes you are dead on except it does show that the head of Goggle UK is aware of the problem and his response was very close to when Google play shut down the 4 and 10. Your order angers me the most with Google maybe because I've been in contact with u from the beginning but stick in there my brotha....:thumbup:

Of course I checked mine and it has changed to Dec. 15 as well. For some strange reason I started to :laugh:

In fact I am still LOL.

I bet all it means is that they are just looking at their count and amount and the changing date is the last time they ran the report to see how many outstanding orders they have.

Other than that, I bet it does not mean s*^@!

I'm sorry everybody, I just can no longer upset myself over this. Laughing at corporate America is all little guys will be able to do. We can't even cuss on this board. :(

It's unfortunate the 8GBs are so delayed compared to the 16. I would have ordered the 16 had I known the shipping time was dramatically shorter. I was frantically trying to order, not paying attention to that.

Unless LG promised Google more units then they received from them, that's BS. Hell, they should only be selling what they have anyway, not what they might get. I think all this is just speaking to the fact they have little to no control over the supply line, don't have power or didn't build in controls so that the orders were fifo and their support staff is largely impotent and they don't have and are not given enough info because it's plainly not there to give. Fiasco.

I ordered my 16GB Nexus 4 on November 30th at 11:09 AM CMT, USA. At the time, my order was at 6 - 7 weeks. I called customer service on the same day to ask why I had two phones that were Pending.and was told that it was fine. However, I was also told that my order would ship "sometime in the next week".

Well, along with most people here, my order changed from "Pending" to "Pre-Order" and has been so for about a week now. I called on December 13th to ask about that supposed shipping date and that I wanted to get the phone sometime before my Sprint bill came out. The representative told me that she'd get a "shipping specialist" to look at my order and, in fact, my phone WAS to be shipped on December 11th.

So, I'm waiting until tomorrow to see what pops up in my e-mail. I already got my Sprint bill but that's no big deal as I expected to have both Sprint and Straight Talk (AT&T) going at the same time anyway for a while.

Anyone else here have a Nov 30th order or is it just me? What is the status of your order? Mine still is on November 30th with a Pre-Order status so I don't really know.
