Hey Larry,

I heard you have some problem with your Nexus 4 launch. Foxconn is working mad 24/7 to crank out iPhone 5 for us.

If you help us fix our own version of Maps for IOS 6, we'll put your backordered Nexus 4 customers to the top of the queue to get an Iphone 5.

What do you say?

- Tim
[Nexus 4 General] argenteloup:
Back-ordered. My poor F5, your sacrifice only gets the phone coming in 3 weeks not 3 days. FML.
[Nexus 4 General] goldfingerfif:
Yeah that's only 4 per state.
[Nexus 4 General] gbroon:
200? Surely even if they looked at the +1s for it on the store page they would have realised they needed at least 15k.

[Nexus 4 General] Rspeters:
Hasn't google had enough product launches to maybe get one just a little right?? They pretty much messed this one up in every aspect of the launch. First they don't give us a time when it's going to launch, so we all had to be up at 3 in the morning for nothing, then they launch it a half hour early after they do give an official time, then they take a certain numbers and make it unavailable, and it turns out that most of those orders didn't even have phones to back them up. I would truly think it would be difficult to mess up THAT MUCH with one product launch. Especially after they already did that with the Nexus 7.

Go into your account settings on Google Wallet, there is a button to close everything down.
[Nexus 4 General] MLPosey27:
For what it's worth, they do not appear to have taxed my shipping.

$349.00 for the phone

$349(.08517, local tax rate) = $29.72433

Sum = $378.72433

$378.72433 + $13.99 shipping = $392.71433

And $392.71 is the total showing in Google Wallet.

[Nexus 4 General] JeepoUK:
What really pisses me off is that I know people here in the UK who have received theirs, and they order AFTER me. I got the dreaded email tonight, about an hour after getting of the phone to a Google rep who said that my delivery email would be out today. Just a shambles. I love google, and find the hate in this thread funny, but damn I am close to it myself now. Because of the rep today, I finalised the sale of my GNexus......guess I am stuck with a dumb phone for 3 weeks then....That's the bit that really ticks me off.
[Nexus 4 General] biggiephat:
I won't believe all of this until my wallet or play store says its backordered. Everything is glitched. These back order emails could be too.

16gb Nexus 4 backordered in UK and I only bought one. Still down as "Shipping 15th November" in my Play account.

Called up Google and got through in a minute but that was almost an hour ago and I suppose more and more people are calling in to complain about backorders. Shouted at the poor Google rep for a good ten minutes. He sounded like a college kid and had zero information to offer.

Not happy as its being delivered to my work address and I leave in two weeks!
[Nexus 4 General] agtitan:
Correct, shipping charges are never taxable.
[Nexus 4 General] rootdisk:
Probably posted by others, just adding my voice. But UPS now shows my tracking info last location:

[Nexus 4 General] johannt:
I received a BO email for 1x16gb that I placed later in the day 1pm pst. I recieved tracking for the 3x8gb ordered minutes after release.

Hopefully google is preemptively sending out BO emails as they are sorting out stock on the tail end. This way there will be some stock for some of the BO emails and people will get it next week with free shipping. I can't believe their system would take too many more orders than available stock. Then again as someone elegantly put its a cluster****

To all of you ordering from the Play store - have you read the corresponding nexus 7 thread? The play store was a shambles and their returns were very bad. It took me over 2 months to get my money back - after they had accepted and signed for the device.

Please read that thread before taking the plunge....

SIM/Network

I know this seems like the perfect question for Google, but I'm getting search overload, AT&T spam, and/or irrelevant results.

What are some of the best month to month (or daily) SIM deals in the US (DC specifically, if that matters)? T-Mo and ATT have somewhat okay deals, but I thought I remember hearing someone say that there were much better options from other companies that operate under their (at&t/t-mo) networks.

I want voice, text, and data, or MAYBE just data if I find a great deal and feel okay going "all in" with google voice/google talk/handcent sms. Ideally text would be unlimited. Voice can be limited and small; I don't talk for long periods of time on the phone.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
[Nexus 4 General] ctfrommn:

I personally chose to go with T-Mobile's true unlimited value plan with 500min, unlimited text, and unlimited 4G. Its a bit more than prepaid and does require a 2 year agreement, but no one else offers unlimited, un-throttled 4G.
[Nexus 4 General] Plexicle:
If you don't need talk minutes, I recall a crazy web-only TMo deal with unlimited HSPA data and texting... Something like $30/mo. Wonder if that's still around?

The problem was always finding a phone that supported 1700mHz band. They're generally really hard to find, but the N4 is pentaband so you'd be good to go with it.
[Nexus 4 General] ctfrommn:
It is, but data is throttled at 5GB....still an amazing deal though.

If am not mistaken I thought Carphonewarehouse had this phone on there website a few days ago, anyone in UK knows if Carphonewarehouse will sell this at launch as they normally do?
[Nexus 4 General] Singh400:
No, I haven't.

But I hope by now they've sorted any issues out.

And besides, I'd prefer to buy it direct from Google. Rather than dealing with Carphone Warehouse and et al.
[Nexus 4 General] nbeebe24:
I'm sure it'll be 3 to 5 days with options to expedite for extra. I always have to do next day air on new phones. Love my Android toys :)
[Nexus 4 General] B97:
In the UK you get 1-2 business days shipping for £10, I think this is the overnight shipping if your lucky enough to get it after a day.
[Nexus 4 General] heat361:
They don't have overnight they only have one option as of now which is two day shipping only.

At least I mean they don't have that option for the nexus 7
[Nexus 4 General] itsalexaye90:
For the Nexus 7 there was no overnight shipping. But if there is for the Nexus 4, I'll gladly take it.
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
Of course not!
[Nexus 4 General] 0.0:
there was before, right when it first launched for those who had pre-ordered it. google upgraded them from two-night to overnight. but that was for pre-orders, so i doubt it'll be the same. but the point is...I AM EXCITED to get it within the week :D:D:D
[Nexus 4 General] dwd3885:
i'm hoping it's overnight. I remember the ORIGINAL Nexus One was STANDARD Overnight shipping. Oh well, only a few more days!
[Nexus 4 General] enviii:
I was going to wait a week until I ordered to let the guinea pigs test it out. But I don't think i'll make it a week to order it. I'm just going to order it as soon as it goes live and try my luck out. If I'm not pleased I can always get a refund *without re-stocking* fee correct? Device isn't functioning as advertised etc, correct?
[Nexus 4 General] 0.0:
if something is wrong with it, like anything thats not functioning right, you have warranty

for those who ordered the nexus one, nexus s, or galaxy nexus right when it was put on sale, did it have any bugs or problems? how about the nexus 7?

[Nexus 4 General] Chad_Petree:
I'm curious, let's say the nexus starts selling at 12:00 am, will it be the same hour in every country? For example I live in Germany and here 12:00 is sooner than on USA, so they could sell it here first? Does anyone has experience with the nexus 7 first day on sale?

[Nexus 4 General] chrisjcks:
Yeah, could come Thursday - I suppose I could leave work a little bit earlier and have a nice long weekend till Monday lol
[Nexus 4 General] wilsonlam97:
Just a question. If I cut the SIM with a microsim cutter and it's extremely close to one of the edges would I have damaged the SIM? I don't see any damage but if it were just damaged a few micrometres my SIM would be destroyed right?

There's absolutely no clearance on a SIM right?
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
I don't think it is destroyed. Just try it and see if it works :eek:
[Nexus 4 General] chrisjcks:
I used the noosy micro SIM cutter back in April for my HTC ONE X - it worked fine, even though I nearly crapped my pants with worry whilst doing it LOL
[Nexus 4 General] _guzzler_:
So say my N4 arrives on 16th (hopefully), how do I transfer my app data?

I flash roms and back up using titanium back up.

Say root is available by then on N4. Would it just work if i use my android 2.3 app back up and restore on N4 and then update the apps from playstore?

If not what are my options if root is not available?
[Nexus 4 General] wilsonlam97:
I don't have a micro sim to device to test on (yet!) and I don't want to risk it or else I can't call using my T-Mobile G1 LOL.

So I guess it's accurate enough. Thanks man!

I have this kind of card.

Notice how the chip is nearly centered? Yeah, some SIMs are near an edge (old Rogers/Fido SIMs) and the Noosy cutter would just destroy the chip.
[Nexus 4 General] lpasq:
i really feel all your frustration and disappointment with google play being such an inept outfit when it comes to product releases.

for those who did luck out here is the timing of my nexus nightmare that seems to be headed for a happy ending.

again...sorry to you all that have to wait as it seems it could have easily been any of us. hang in there.
[Nexus 4 General] Xeur:
Coming from someone who designs systems used in sales/procurement/logistics - it would have to be a pretty monumental system bug for them to allocate orders due to deliver in 3-5 days based on non-existing stock. I would REALLY like to think this isn't the case.

I'm guessing that it's probably the reworking of the phones that's causing the huge backlog. Remember that OTA update a few hours before the official release? If people receiving their units have the lock screen widgets and multi-user support enable as is, it means that each of these units needs to be unpacked, have their software updated, then re-boxed at each of the worldwide distribution centers over the last couple of days (or perhaps just boxed for the first time).

As you might imagine - this can take a while. Especially with the holiday season coming up in some areas (the US), they've probably given themselves ample time to complete this before having to ship them back out.
