I've had a look through the last few pages of threads, and don't think I've found an answer to what's happened with my order. Anyone any ideas...

It's a 6-7 weeker from 14th December (I know, I really shouldn't be getting impatient yet, considering what lots of you have been through with lower shipping estimates!). It's always shown as pre-ordered and still does. However, today the date has changed to today's date. Looking at some other posts it looks like this could be a sign of imminent shipping (which would be fantastic!) - however, my card has not yet been charged, and whereas my bank account used to show the current balance minus the Nexus 4 cost as "available", now my whole balance is available. I'm guessing this means the authorisation may have lapsed? Is it normal for the date to change when the authorisation lapses or should I start getting hopeful?
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Its normal for the date to keep changing... its not till your CC is charged that you get any shipment...

Mine had changed from dec 3rd to dec 20th to dec 27th and shipped on the 28th after credit card was charged... all changes said status preordered...

So its 12:30 and I still have no update on my tracking. Got the code on Saturday. Still don't even have an origin scan.

Mind please posting a list of apps you disabled or a link to a list?
[Nexus 4 General] Jrob2k:
i had an issue with my device when i first received it (i was part of the second batch of users that received their devices after ordering on the first day). I received a device with a bad radio and after much back and forth ordered an RMA unit and waited basically from December 1st to the 17th only to be told it would be another 3 weeks since they were "backordered." I then requested a refund and they told me they would convert my RMA into a return rather than a replacement. I would need to send the device back and wait 14 days for a refund, but i never received a shipping label, and anyone i spoke with was clueless. Soon enough Christmas was upon us and i requested that they just cancel everything and i sold my device on craigslist for 375 bucks (what i paid for it). Rest assured, i informed the buyer of the radio problem with the device and he had a plan to have it replaced by LG after the christmas season.

Here is where it gets "fun." I checked my credit card after christmas and it looks like they refunded me for the device i told them i wasnt going to send back. I called and emailed the inform them of the mistake and the CSR's were clueless. They couldnt see how i was refunded without sending the device back. I told them i'll gladly except it as compensation for the whole situation they put me through, and still havent gotten a reply. I know better than to touch that money, but i can't help but feel....reimbursed....
[Nexus 4 General] Gorthoss:
Sure,

Here are the system apps I disabled:

Google Korean keyboard

Google Pinyin

Email (I don't use anything other than Gmail on my phone)

Currents

Earth

News & Weather
[Nexus 4 General] Eric-1987:
Never even heard of google pinyin.
[Nexus 4 General] Gorthoss:
:D Neither did I but I saw it in my manage all apps list when I turned my phone on for the first time and saw the symbol and I thought "Hmm, I can't read this symbol. I'll just re enable things if I run into problems in apps".

I probably should note that I only get H+ 10 on my Att based Straight Talk plan in my area, and get pretty good reception as well (5 to 4 bars).

Edit: Fixed a spelling error.
[Nexus 4 General] theonebakery:
Any word on replacements? I've been waiting since December 6th for a replacement ...
[Nexus 4 General] Eric-1987:
Called google and they said my 28th change was just an authorization. FML.
[Nexus 4 General] fr8cture:
Can we stay on topic? There is a whole other thread for RMA's
[Nexus 4 General] cyanide911:
Oh damn. Dunno if that's the case for me as well.
[Nexus 4 General] Gorthoss:
Right! sorry, got a bit carried away.
[Nexus 4 General] theTqM:

Thanks for the list Gorthoss.

Today is Day-N for quite a few of us. Anyone received their N4 this morning? Did UPS treat your package well? I was going to go for a hike today, but instead I'm going to hang around and wait for delivery (I don't want them leaving the package laying around like they have with some others). Kinda a pain that they cannot narrow the delivery window like USPS does excellently around my area. I could be waiting here until the late evening and waste my day.
[Nexus 4 General] boondoc:
usually they're pretty prompt, always between 11-12. not today though, oh no... not today. at least everyone is gone now so i can stand and stare out the window without having them shake their heads at me.

i'm waiting for them to drop it off so i can go to att and get a new sim.
[Nexus 4 General] Eric-1987:
It is I bet you it is. Thats google for you. I am in a bad mood now. I got excited hoping I would be getting a phone soon. This wait is starting to get unbearable.
[Nexus 4 General] dionieins:
holly crap UPS & Google, since saturday 29th getting the same ****:

UPS could not locate the shipment details for your request. Please verify your information and try again later.

I think is too much. Already sent an email to Google, no "automatic" response yet.
[Nexus 4 General] cperinaz:
does anyone have any idea about when can nexus will be available again on play store ? any rumor or something else :) ? a friend of me will be in usa for a month from 6. jan. and it would be great if i could purchase and get one in this time period but actually i have no hope about it . I think i'll tell him to buy from a shop or i'll purchase on ebay for about 450-500 dollars :S im from europe and it is also possible to find a nexus 4 here on 550 dollars :S

do you have any opinion to buy it from a shop except ebay ? with a fair price .

greetings :good:
[Nexus 4 General] chinthekng:
Haha I'm in the same situation after waiting 3 days for a shipping confirmation I finally emailed them and got the bad news :(
[Nexus 4 General] halfatwin:
Got mine at 10 am est didn't know it was here until I tracked it they left it in the side door.
[Nexus 4 General] The Bownz:
I'm in this position. Hoping they gave me the wrong tracking Id and that it'll come today.
[Nexus 4 General] cyanide911:
I mailed them yesterday, waiting for a reply.

From where did you mail them? Their online form? I always get automated replies from over there. This time I replied to one of their previous mails, someone told me that might work.
[Nexus 4 General] Psilocin:
Well thanks all for the help. Delivery lady just dropped off the phone half hour ago. Already up and running as I type. See you in development.
[Nexus 4 General] Mr Ian B:
Dec 8th ordered

Shipped Dec 29

Out for delivery today.....

Too bad, have a UPS refusal note at my odor for it since already found locally for same price.

This phone should be called Beauty and the Beast.

Good luck, everyone!!!

Ian B
[Nexus 4 General] chinthekng:
Yeah send them a mail through the automated thing and then reply to the automated mail and you get an actual response.
[Nexus 4 General] Eric-1987:
With this phone it seems theres nothing BUT bad news. I think I might cancel my order and get a different phone.
[Nexus 4 General] jellydoughnut29:
Shipping Fiasco

I think my last call to Google will help those with tracking numbers that aren't working. I have been calling since Sunday to both Google and UPS and nobody knew where my package was. I finally got a hold of a nice old lady at Google and she talked to her supervisor that said my package was never picked up by UPS. Apparently UPS didn't pick up all of the packages over the holiday. Google owes me a shipping refund! :mad:
[Nexus 4 General] fr8cture:
Mines out for delivery but UPS doesn't makes it's way to me until around 3pm. :(
[Nexus 4 General] geokuttan:
Update on my Nexus 4 8gb. My package arrived without a phone inside. Google said that they have to report it as stolen, and then I have to order it again from play store...:( ...Wait there is None on the play store...
[Nexus 4 General] The Bownz:
Bleh. I was HOPING that it just wasn't a working tracking number, and that I'd get it today...
[Nexus 4 General] dkflint723:
Seems like all the people that ordered on Dec 3rd are getting left out... I had a pending charge on my card from Dec 28th, but now that has disappeared. I keep hoping that I'll see another charge pop up, but so far, nothing. Oh well, guess I just have to keep waiting and envy those that got theirs already.
[Nexus 4 General] juan12456:
Holy crap! Reading this makes me absolutely furious! How can a company do these kind of things?? This is absolutely ridiculous.... I've been trying to buy a nexus 4 for a month now and it's been sold out the whole time. Seems like ill have to buy a GS3 since my old lg phone died yesterday
[Nexus 4 General] psxpaul:
I just got off the phone with a CSR. I ordered November 27th at noon and hadn't even been charged yet. He had no idea when I'd get charged or when it would ship.

I cancelled the entire thing. This really isn't worth it. I filed a complaint with the BBB, and I'm just going to wait for the Galaxy S4.
[Nexus 4 General] cyanide911:
Dec 6 here, left out as well. There was some Nov 30 guy as well. It's all random -_-
[Nexus 4 General] anperira:
This is the status showing in UPS

Package Progress

Miami, FL, US 01/02/2013 2:04 P.M. The receiver requested a hold for a future delivery date. UPS will attempt delivery on date requested. / Delivery rescheduled.

But it was delivered already UPS is a mess
[Nexus 4 General] dkflint723:
Just called Google and was told that my account is still "Pending" and that I need to wait another 2-3 weeks... This is not the news I was hoping for... :crying:
[Nexus 4 General] cyanide911:
What's the number you called at? I'll try as well. I know it was there somewhere in the thread but search isn't returning anything.

Well. My tracking just kinda kicked in. It said it'll update once it gets to ups. Derp. "Label created 12/31" 2 day shipping...
[Nexus 4 General] DeDeRa:
Hi guys.

I have a little problem. I would like to know the sales tax and shipping cost of the Nexus 4 16GB to New York.

I'm not from USA, but someone from here will buy the phone for me and ship it to me.

But i don't know those two, the sales tax and shipping cost that Google Play Store has for Nexus 4 16GB.

PS: Also, the 8GB, has the same sales tax and shipping or different?

Thanks in advance and hope i didn't annoy or disturb anyone. Also hope my english isn't that bad.
[Nexus 4 General] cyanide911:
AFAIK shipping is 14USD and tax is 26USD.
[Nexus 4 General] theTqM:
lol....

MyUPS just updated:rolleyes:. I now have an approximate delivery time, but it doesn't help much considering it is a 4-hour window (the next 4hrs). I better take a sweater outside with me, it'll get cold before then ^.^
[Nexus 4 General] Flippy125:
The pending charge still hasn't been removed from my card, still nothing from Google. I wish they had just left it alone until the end of January like it was originally set for instead of playing these games. This is driving me crazy.
[Nexus 4 General] Eric-1987:
I 100% agree I was so annoyed earlier when I was told it was an authorization. Why randomly authorize the card and get my hopes up? Makes no sense.
[Nexus 4 General] cyanide911:
Just got off the phone with Google on that helpline, and they're saying that my device is still in 'processing' and she'll escalate my case to a specialist ensure it's handled on a priority basis.

EDIT: Just got this mail from her

This is bull**** right? Or do the specialists actually help?

Just for reference, I'm one of the 28th Dec 'card authorized but not shipped yet' people
[Nexus 4 General] boondoc:
HA! mine updated about an hour ago to this

Scheduled For Early Delivery On:

Wednesday, 01/02/2013, By End of Day

Originally Scheduled For Delivery On:

Friday, 01/04/2013, By End of Day

didn't even get a window but seeing as how i'm east coast and it's almost 5 that would have put it at anytime between now and 9pm.
[Nexus 4 General] tuxhacker:
I called too but my rep told me that they are on back-order again and not sure when next batch will arrive. :(
[Nexus 4 General] boondoc:
FINALLY. they just rolled down the street.
[Nexus 4 General] cyanide911:
Ouch :(. I'm afraid that's probably what my specialist will tell me too.

Btw, is your CC still charged or have they reversed it?
[Nexus 4 General] Dimitri246:
F**k this

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm guessing that email is bull**** considering I got the same one about a specialist and bla bla bla. I ordered on the 2nd and people who have ordered on the 10th and beyond are getting phones today. I sent a follow up email today. I thought people were doing too much with BBB complaints, but I really am going to raise hell if I get told my phone will be in the "next batch" which will be ready who knows when.:mad:

Anyway, if you're a 6-7 weeker like me, then don't get your hopes up, I don't think we're getting it before the last week of Jan.
[Nexus 4 General] 1337sause:
The "evening of January 2" is approaching and that shipping email is nonexistent. I'm starting to get a bad feeling about my order -__-
[Nexus 4 General] soundwave123:
When I called inquiring about when I might be able to place a order for two 16Gb phones the rep said he doesn't have that information. I then said I would end up buying a different android if it was going to be more than a couple weeks and he stated "That is a good idea". Just thought I would post my venture on attempting to obtain two Nexus 4 16Gb
[Nexus 4 General] Dimitri246:
ridiculous

I got this email after my 3rd call:

__

Hello Dimitri,

Thank you for contacting Google. It was a pleasure getting to speak with you today. As promised, I've forwarded your case to a specialist to begin working to resolve your issue as soon as possible.

In the meantime, if you come across any other information that you'd like to pass along, please feel free to reply to this email.

Sincerely,

Andres

The Google Play Support Team

Then this email yesterday:

__

Thank you for your patience. I have some information for you.

We've escalated your issue to specialists on our team and will perform a thorough investigation to determine the cause of the issue. They are trying to push your order through, but may take up to 72 hours for them to find out if it can be done or not.

These investigations can take some time, but we sincerely appreciate your patience while we investigate for you.

Please don't hesitate to reply directly to this email if you have more information to add.

My response to this email was less than cordial.
[Nexus 4 General] legend618:
thats a bummer :(
[Nexus 4 General] bimmerguy2006:
Still no shipping info. Ordered Dec 3 at about 1pm. Called Google to vent - told me its waiting for UPS to pick up and assign tracking number. Anyone else get this line? Credit Card still shows it as pending with "GOOGLE CHECKOUT SELLER"

Need some serious Xanax at this point with the number of people getting their phones that ordered the same time if not after me.
[Nexus 4 General] fr8cture:
Well got mine today and must say I love this phone. Glad to find out the phone was in the box and had the glittery back. :D
[Nexus 4 General] Eric-1987:
What day did you order it?
[Nexus 4 General] boondoc:
first thing i checked for "does it still sparkle?"

fwiw i ordered mine on 12/8
[Nexus 4 General] Flippy125:
If you look back a couple pages I got something similar and asked specifically if it meant there is a phone for me ready to ship right now, he said yes.
[Nexus 4 General] blade_:
hey guys!anybody 27th november 7-8 week, received?
[Nexus 4 General] @127.0.0.1:
Im sorry if this has been posted before but I am currently on a painfully slow connection and its took about 20 mins to load back through 5 pages on this thread..

I originally cancelled a 5th dec order around the time people where re-ordering and getting them quicker, i re-ordered on 14th and got the bug of two devices showing as pre-ordered even tho I checked out 1.

I have checked the status this evening, and my order is showing a new pre-order date of 02nd Jan from the original 14th Dec. Is this normal?

The duplicate pre-order entry stills shows 14th Dec.

[Nexus 4 General] The Bownz:
Should I be able to get a shipping refund for this, as It was created the 31st and STILL hasn't even shipped out?
[Nexus 4 General] SameGuy:
Thanks for this update. To add to those who may be in my situation

12/9 - Ordered Nexus 4 16GB, shipping estimate was 6-7 weeks.

12/29 - Received "Your Order Has shipped" email with UPS tracking.

12/31 - Called google to inquire about why the UPS tracking not working ("Unable to locate item details") , was told to contact UPS

12/31 - Contacted UPS and was told they have not received the package contact seller.

1/1 - Emailed google and was told to wait until the end of the week.

1/2 - Checked the tracking # again and as of 1pm PST the message is now "A UPS shipping label has been created"

It looks like there is some movement on my order now, at least the UPS status has changed.

Another interesting item is that according to UPS, the label was created on 12/31 even though nothing was coming up until today.
[Nexus 4 General] Jetraige:
I should be receiving mine any minute now

but I don't live here, I'm waiting for the phone to move in NY and can't wait too much.

And can't say to google to ship the phone to my home cause my home is in Italy :rolleyes:

Guys, just give it time. The google servers are overloaded that's why confirmation emails are slow. However, Keep an eye out on your Google Wallet Account, here:

FAO those of you who are getting confirmation emails now:

At what point of your order did you get to before you get a failure notice?

My order went through to the 'your order will be completed momentarily' page and the loading swirl came on for about 30 seconds before a failure message occured.

Ive checked my google wallet and no sign of the transaction. Am i doomed? :(
[Nexus 4 General] :
Yaaaaaaaaaay, mine showed up in google wallet and later I received my order confirmations! :D
[Nexus 4 General] rkcckr:
So I managed to order one. checked google wallet and it said 'pending'. phoned google and they said it may not have gone through! so waiting on hold to speak to a google wallet specialist!
