Your original reply was to me, we have exactly the same order.. I also received shipping email late last night. I've just got to work and its ARRIVED!!!

I think they charged me shipping still though. Too relieved to do anything about it just yet!
[Nexus 4 General] daglesj:
Mine is now on the van to be delivered today. It's within 30 miles of me! :fingers-crossed:

Then I have a couple of adventures to do when it arrives.

1. Copy down all my contacts as my Pre 2 doesnt really handle copying them to the SIM or expeorting them easily. Lovely!

2. Cut my SIM down to size. Ooer!
[Nexus 4 General] drizzy.d:
I got it this morning at 9:30

It's well worth the wait and a huge upgrade from my samsung galaxy mini.

I'm quite pleased with this phone :)
[Nexus 4 General] jayfenney:
My UK 16GB order from the 14th December arrived this afternoon.

Can definitely confirm as basically everyone else has said, it is gorgeous and totally worth the wait for me.
[Nexus 4 General] daglesj:
Mine arrived two minutes ago. The delivery driver said he'd been delivering a lot of them today.

Mine arrived in a jiffy bag that looked like it had been tossed around the floor of the delivery depot.

This is the no. For play store devices in the UK: 08003286081

Watch out, they might charge you even though it is 0800!

They said they are shipping mine this Friday (25th), I ordered on 14th Dec aswell. I guess not as early as others.

[Nexus 4 General] dude8383:
Anyone know when the next wave will be ready? I lost my phone while I was in the UK (Nexus Galaxy) and want to order me a Nexus 4... guess I'll have to get used to being without a phone for a few weeks.
[Nexus 4 General] drizzy.d:
I also managed to get a £10 refund due to the late shipping :)

Good deal...I'm still waiting stateside to place an order...
[Nexus 4 General] daglesj:
How did you manage that?
[Nexus 4 General] drizzy.d:
Hang in there, it's definitely worth the wait.

---------- Post added at 06:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:08 PM ----------

I ordered on the 5th of december with a 5-6 week shipping time so the 16th of January was their last day to ship. A customer service representative emailed me with an apology and gave me the refund.
[Nexus 4 General] P8TRIOT:
Same...I keep vacillating back and forth between the 8GB and 16GB model. Given all the cloud services now I am trying to figure out how much of that 16GB I would NEED. It seems to me since we have so many of those cloud services is there any justification for going to 16? I would like some feedback from those who have the 8GB and would be interested to know if my logic holds true.
[Nexus 4 General] atulalvenkar:
If you like playing games like NFS or Gameloft titles go for 16gb. Each of these games use 1-2gb of space.

It's better to spend a bit more and get 16gb then to get stuck with 8gb. Also supply of 8gb phones has been very inconsistent.

[Nexus 4 General] Drzfr3shboialex:
The good thing about low stock is even though Google expected short demand they still decided to make a nexus. I remember the Nexus one and the "no more nexus(which obviously is a lie), but after the nexus s and galaxy nexus doing poorly, one would think Google might stop. I'll end here Lol, here's to Google making more nexus, and may it continue for a good while.
[Nexus 4 General] daglesj:
Okay we are all setup and ready to go. Just got to type in all my contacts!

Went to my local Carphone Warehouse to ask about getting my SIM cut down and they said they usually charge a fee. I said that's ok as long as it wasn't crazy.

Anyway the chap walks in the back and comes out with a SIM cutter and just leaves it on the counter. Turns to his colleague and goes "oh no I've left the SIM cutter on the counter where anyone could just walk up and use it!"

Hint was taken and thanks given!

Plus it lets him off the hook if it didn't work.:D

That's me out of here, good luck to those of you still waiting. It is a nice phone, though it is a slippery beast. It's so lovely you want to be gentle with it which is probably not the best thing to do. Case ahoy!

Check this out: http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_2301wt_1271

225€ + 12€ shipping for what's described as a brand new 16GB Nexus 4. Here's the catch though: the guy doesn't accept PayPal, only direct bank transfer. Also, his name is Qian Qiyun and he's supposedly shipping from Shanghai, France.

Smells like a scam, but he only has positive reviews, and 158 of them. Thoughts?
[Nexus 4 General] adidas007:
thats cheaper than the playrtore where its 349 € for 16gigs. The one he is selling might be locked... U never know! He must have bought one for himself off ebay or some place and must have found that its locked, so is selling now to recover some amount. ITS JUST MY WILD GUESS- you never knoe the truth unless you deal with him :P
[Nexus 4 General] Glaux:
You may not know the truth even if you deal with him. I doubt he'll come out and say "yes, I'm trying to scam you" if those are his intentions.

Quite obviously a scam.

I meant you complete the deal with him. That is pay him and receive or not receive the device
[Nexus 4 General] Glaux:
Oh, right. I suppose you could also ask the other buyers how it worked out for them.
[Nexus 4 General] adidas007:
you mean to say he has multiple nexus 4's ?

I cant open the link. Using a nokia :P
[Nexus 4 General] Glaux:
Yeah, he's selling 9 of them, 5 of which are already sold.
[Nexus 4 General] adidas007:
either he is mad or a big fraud :P
[Nexus 4 General] Glaux:
I'm leaning toward, and hoping for, the latter. If I discover I missed a chance to get a 16GB Nexus 4 for 225€ I'll be depressed for a week.
[Nexus 4 General] adidas007:
its a gamble of 225 euros.

If you hit, you might get a 349¢ã device at such a cheap price. (idk how :confused: ) ppl are selling their device for 600 $ and this guy 200$ :P

i would actually say no :P

still its ur money your wish :D

Play your bet and pray for the best
[Nexus 4 General] Censura_Umbra:
I wouldn't. Without PayPal, you can't get your money back. Plus his account was probably hacked.
[Nexus 4 General] Glaux:
You raise a good point about his account being hacked, and I'll probably be depressed for a month if I discovered I lost 225€. Guess I'll pass. Damn you LG/Google, damn you.

Is there any source for the back glass for a reasonable price? I can't give it back to LG, they don't sell it here.

This thing is totally worth the wait. In fact I see no reason in skinning android anymore. Unless handset manufacturers step up their game in ui design because the team at Google have done an amazing job.

So which was more expensive to fix, your arm or the Nexus?
[Nexus 4 General] lowtje:
I think he wants his Nexus to be repaired before the arm :p

Nexus 4 Restock

Hey guys any assumptions when the next stock will be available ?
[Nexus 4 General] casonswag:
Mid February
[Nexus 4 General] Sigvaldr:
All LG said was that the pressure on the market should be alleviated by mid February, as it is increasing production. Neither Google nor LG have said anything specific about when the Play Store might be restocked.

Can be every day. No specific timeframe!

This is official price for offline stores.

Looks like Google don't want to sell n4 for 350$ when it can sell for 500$+.

So "never in stock" sounds more real.
[Nexus 4 General] sb9772:
Which are the best shipping options from US to India ? Plz elaborate .
[Nexus 4 General] P8TRIOT:
As I understand it, there are no options for shipping, or rather, you have to start at $14 for shipping, I don't know that there are options for a cheaper shipping option, I wish there was.
[Nexus 4 General] Sigvaldr:
I doubt Google gets any more money from phones sold through other store than it does for Play Store orders. The profits from the markup go directly to the stores.

In all likelihood, the reason stores like T-Mobile are getting phones back in stock is because Google is still fulfilling outstanding orders from them.
[Nexus 4 General] hp420:
I just got back from the local tmobile. They had a working N4 on display, and I hoarded it for about a good 45 minutes lol HOT DAMN is that thing fast!!!! It looks like someone had killed its 42mbps monthly bandwidth because all I could get was ~100KBPS download speed with a speedtest. I did check out some games and a few more laborious apps, though. switching from one heavy tasking app to another heavy tasking app was smooth like butter on a warm summer day :D If there was a single shred of doubt in my ind that this is the phone I want, it's totally gone now!!

By the way...I chatted up the store manager while I was there. Here's a few tidbits he gave me:

tmo's IN STORE price is $150 on contract, plus a $50 mail in rebate to bring the total after the rebate to $100. You pay $150 to take it home, though. To the best of his knowledge, this is their permanent price. He said he hasn't gotten any word that this promotion will ever end!

In-store OFF CONTRACT price is $550

This particular store got their stock on Jan 22nd. They received 9. One is the in-store working model, 8 are for sale. As of 5pm tonight, they have 8 in stock not including the working display model. There is also another tmobile store across town which received a stock of 13 including their working model. They got their stock the same day and have sold one since. I live in a very urban area where almost NOBODY knows the word flash or rom, let alone actually knowing how to do it. If the stock my local stores have is any indication of how many should be in stock at other stores, I think it's safe to say that the pressure is now officially off the market. The fact that there are this many at the stores in an area where they are not expected to sell well at all makes me very hopeful that extremely soon we may be seeing them pop back up in the play store.

btw...one funny thing about our short conversation. I mentioned I was thinking about buying one from el-gool and he laughed, then apologized and said "Good luck getting one. I hear you're really going to need it on this one" :rolleyes: I was soooo close. I had a working one in my hands....then I had to pry myself away and let it go.
[Nexus 4 General] Pentode321:
Have it

Well I had to collect it but now I have it. Having a problem with the sim card so cannot check out the phone. Everything else is like using a small Nexus 7 so if you have one of those it is easy.
[Nexus 4 General] SupaDupaFly24:
Just thought I would share for those who are still looking to buy..

I just got off the phone with a Google Play rep, and he confirmed to me that Google has told them the Nexus 4 should be back in stock the first week of Feb for US buyers. He said that he has no specific date but expect it to be back in stock around Feb 1 -10!!

We don't have too much longer to wait guys!!

It makes the wait that much harder. I have nothing to play with in the meantime. I've got a flip phone for making calls, but that doesn't help me if I'm downtown and want to check maps or browse the Internet.

Because that app eats your battery like none other, A better option is to go to the Nexus 4 page at nowinstock.net and have it send you a text or email as soon as it comes back in stock.

[Nexus 4 General] James BlackHeron:
Does the micro-usb cord connection make a funny creaking sound when you press gently on it when it is plugged in?

If so, you may have a defective phone. Having issues reading the SIM card is another symptom I had with mine. I had to send it back ultimately. The good news is the replacement phone ships in a day -even with the phone is OUT OF STOCK in the play store.

As for the Nexus 4 being EXACTLY like a Nexus 7 that isn't 100% true. There are a few differences. Things like the double-finger swipe gesture for the pull-down settings menu from the top, and a few other differences between a "Phone" UI and a "Tablet" UI -difference are programmed right in with 4.2 Nexus Jelly Bean. Physically the only real differences (other than size) is that volume buttons are on the same side as the on/off button with N7 and the MicroUSB charging port is upside-down on the N7 compared to the N4

That last bit sort of drives me crazy as I never can remember which is which. I'm about to make a label for the charging cord plug that says 7 on one side and 4 on the other -but that won't help me much in the dark.

I am back to waiting for a new Nexus-4 again

Got mine new years eve and been having signal problems on T-Mobile. Sometimes in my house here in Portland

OR I have 3 bars sometimes I have no bars, and sometimes I have 1 bar. Very frustrating when it says I have no

service. Google sent me a RMA but said phone was out of stock and had no idea when it would be in stock but

that soon as it was mine would be sent. That'is my only issue but that is a big one. Otherwise it is a great phone.

I can't wait get mine, I almost was gonna switch to the dark side and get a iPhone 5 but my girlfriend has a iPhone now and I been messing around on it and am completely bored only good thing to me was game selection but screw that too many pricey games too, I currently own a nexus 7 and am always busy on it trying out new things so ill feel right at home with a nexus 4 I hope I'm able to order one when they're in stock again

[Nexus 4 General] jkoljo:
Well the common rule of thumb is, if you do not know that you need/want root, then don't. Same goes with bootloader unlock. But I recommend you to check out a few ROMs, such as AOKP.
[Nexus 4 General] klvnhng:
Custom ROMs, kernels, theming, root access apps, developing; the list goes on.
[Nexus 4 General] hp420:
extra quick settings toggles, themes, expandable power menu, the option to use about 5,000 apps that require root in the play store, kernel tweaking, under/overvolting for battery life/performance, init.d tweaks, build.prop tweaks, custom boot animations, different fonts....I could keep going, but I think I've made my point ;)
[Nexus 4 General] CliveBurton:
Sorry for the noob question. . . But is it really effective in terms of battery life improvement to underclock the Nexus 4's Clock speed?
