Yeah if I log out I don't have a time window, but logged in I do, but all it says is by the end of the day.
[Nexus 4 General] sdfghi:
I didn't follow the entire conversation but why did your order get cancelled?

did they give a reason ?
[Nexus 4 General] otariq:
Mines been out for delivery since 7:30am but I already know it won't get here till 8pm stupid ups is always last to come to my house and my dads note 2 sat in their warehouse all day yesterday 10 miles from my house :/
[Nexus 4 General] kzoodroid:
MyUPS gives you a 4 hour window of delivery. Fortunately I had it shipped to work and we use UPS as our daily shipper and have set delivery and pickup times. Special deliveries, next day etc, are around 10:00 am.
[Nexus 4 General] lostmybandaide:
I spoke to Google wallet lastnight and they were clueless too. That was before I received a cancel email.

[Nexus 4 General] gbroon:
Well gave up waiting for google to take UK orders and ordered from carphone warehouse. Got fraud alert on card confirmed traqnsaction with bank and called CPW 15 minutes later to check payment had gone through, they checked and said it had dispatched for delivery tomorrow:)

Just the bumper sitting in playstore queue now.

Do you have My Choice?
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
Yup.UPS just hates me.
[Nexus 4 General] ScottyNuttz:
Out for delivery... longest day begins!
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
Yup, now we go into overtime of the waiting game.
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
Oh thats weird

Very long indeed
[Nexus 4 General] abe in space:
A 4-hour "estimate" window that includes 6:30 (which is effectively "end of the day" to UPS) isn't much of a real estimate, honestly. I've literally never had UPS deliver a package to this location outside that window in 17 years of living here.
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
Oh well, just makes it all that more surprising when it gets here :victory:
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
My N4 is out for delivery today, yay! Correction, wife called me at work to say it arrived. Nice. Bumper got updated in Play to the 29th, which means it will probably go out today or tomorrow... also good. Now just need for them to ship my N10 RMA out so I can be done with this whole process. Here's to hoping the N4 isn't a dud!

What are the problems? Yellow glue screen, speaker buzz, camera rattle, scratches and cracks in glass, overheating, did I miss any? Gotta know what to look out for.

Still waiting to hear back regarding google not being able to charge my credit card...
[Nexus 4 General] housry23:
OK, thanks for that. I was trying to get you guys a different angle. You would think they would know since they are the ones that deal with charging your card. Just goes to show just how clueless Google really is. I hope this get their "store" skills straightened out before the next big release. I dealt with the Nexus 7 launch and now this. Both were just as terrible. In fact, I think the Nexus 7 launch was worse because all the people that paid the Play Store had to pay shipping and they certainly didn't ship in a timely fashion. I got placed on backorder for a preorder lol. And people were walking into Game Stops, Office Max and other B&M stores and walking out with an N7 before us preorder people got theirs with no shipping charges at all.

I hope you guys that got the cancellation email after already waiting over 2 weeks get it straightened out. I would be furious in your shoes my friend.

Hey lostmybandaide, I just noticed that you said you spoke to Wallet before the cancel email. Maybe if you call back now they will know more? Worth a shot. I would call your bank or CC company first. It may be they thought it was a fraudulent charge adn if you call they'll release the funds.
[Nexus 4 General] nellisere:
I'm still waiting for them to come back in stock in the UK. It's stupid how Carphone Warehouse, O2 and Three all charge £400 for the Nexus 4 8GB. I can barely afford it direct from Google! Hopefully it will be in stock before Christmas, and delivered before Christmas, but not getting my hopes up (much.)

[Nexus 4 General] eliteconcept:
Not true :(, 2 day delivery is NOT equal to Saturday delivery
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
Blame LG, they're the ones who are requiring stores to charge a specific amount. Carphone Warehouse was originally saying they wouldn't sell the Nexus 4 because of that (something about not being able to adhere to their "lowest price guarantee"), but I guess they backed off on that (which makes sense since Google is the only place that's able to sell for less, and they would likely have a special deal with LG. Still sucks, though.

---------- Post added at 08:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 AM ----------

Yep, Saturday Delivery is a value-added service that's on top of a normal delivery. Costs quite a bit, too.
[Nexus 4 General] rock7632:
UPS tracking information still says A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status will be updated. Still no updates after 2 days of getting the tracking information. When I log in to myUPS scheduled delivery date is for today but no movement at all yet
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
The time given is only an estimate, anyway, based on when the truck is expected to make it to your area. It could be earlier, it could be later, it's no guarantee. Mine says 2:30-6:30, and we usually seem to get deliveries around 3-4pm or 7-8pm. A ground delivery coming tomorrow is 2:30-6:30, as well (as I would expect). You can (if you're a paid subscriber) pay $5 to have a delivery within a specific 2-hour window, but it's not like that's all that much better, really. It'll come when it comes (unless it gets "lost"). :good:

---------- Post added at 08:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 AM ----------

Ouch, most of the rest of us like that had gotten the origin scan yesterday. Normally I'd say that it'll probably be here today, but with UPS sitting on packages already in their hands, I can't be very confident about that anymore. :crying: Hopefully it is in progress and indeed coming today. You could try calling UPS and see, since it sounds like they actually do have information about packages that isn't necessarily in the online tracking system.
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
Yeah I known its an estimate anyway that's why I am not too worried about it. It will get here today. That's all I care about. Ups see,ms to ususlkly come around 2-5
[Nexus 4 General] slowpc:
Gonna have to go into work and cut down my sim while working if it gets here in the next 90 minutes...
[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
I never thought I would say this.. I have "Out For Delivery"!!!!! Finally!!!!

I ordered on the 13th finally got my order in at 4** est.. Got the bo on the 15th and the shipping notice on Monday or Tuesday.

For those of you with only the shipping label printed, don't worry. Mine was like that for about 24 hours.

Good luck to those stop waiting..

To those who just ordered. Congrats.

[Nexus 4 General] subhani:
I've been up all night with you guys on the 13th in the UK and never got an opening to place my order. I'm with you guys since before the 27th and another all nighter just wishfully thinking they could restock worldwide at the same time. I'm still waiting...

Are we UK guys Limbo Level 10? "The Unwanted" or "the Rejected"? :crying:
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Question... my Nexus is sitting at home waiting to be opened but there's that SIM card issue. What is the difference between the sizes? I ordered, and have received a cutter, it looks like a stapler. Whats the difference between a normal, mini, and micro? Doesn't this use the same size SIM as an iPhone? I wonder if I got the right size SIM Cutter... should I have the micro, or mini cutter? I'm sort of confused and don't want to have to drive down to T-Mobile today to get one if I don't have to.
[Nexus 4 General] rock7632:
I did. They said sometimes it happens but it should still be delivered today. I'm not very optimistic though. I hope I get it today, I've been without a good phone for a month now after I sold my Galaxy Nexus. Currently using my work Blackberry
[Nexus 4 General] munchy_cool:
the n4 uses the same sim as an iPhone 4 and 4s.

post a link to the sim cutter you got?

---------- Post added at 09:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 AM ----------

hope this helps

the cutout sim is a micro sim (the last one in the image), it together with the leftover sim (in the middle in the image below is a normal sim/mini sim)
[Nexus 4 General] subhani:
AFAIK, the Iphone 4 and 4s use a sim size called micro sim which is one size smaller than the standard sim. The i5 uses an even smaller sim than micro called nano sim.

I always scissor mine along the lines of a micro sim as I owned a One X which used the micro sim size. One S is the same and so for many other android devices now. I don't know if other devices other than i5 uses the nano sim.

Just use a legit micro sim from an i4/4s user and draw onto your sim as a stencil template aligning the chip as closely as possible. Cut with scissor but you have a clipper anyway for that. I am actually using my micro sim in an old Gnex i borrowed in its standard sim slot. No issues at all. In fact, I'm surviving this process because Gnex has recieved an official OTA which now runs the same android version as the N4. I doubt the N4 will perform as well as the Gnex purely on a software experience side of things.

You beat me to it, munchy
[Nexus 4 General] munchy_cool:
no problem bro :)
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
Bleh, thanks useless CSR. "Oh, it happens sometimes. You never know what's going on. But we'll trust that the delivery estimate created when the tracking number was created is accurate." Very comforting. Or as the Play Store CSRs would say... "rest assured". :eek: I'm pulling for you, though, hopefully yours is just one of those that really does have missed or late scans but is really out for delivery. Seems a stretch, but we can still hope... it's the only way to remain sane for this process. :eek:

Hope there's no damage to the phone inside.

I know this thread is for the phone, but my bumper order was changed to November 29th and a new hold was placed on my card. Hopefully I'll have it soon.
[Nexus 4 General] lostmybandaide:
I called them back as soon as I received the cancel email and both wallet and nexus support didn't know anything about it. They told me the order shows to be pending at their end and said it was weird they i got the cancel email. I am waiting for a "order specialist" to reply. Which can only be reach via email.
[Nexus 4 General] Drzfr3shboialex:
Its just orders and shipping lol. :silly:
[Nexus 4 General] slowpc:
Anyone know if Sig is required for these ?
[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:
This isn't just for the phone it's for " play store orders and shipping". I suppose you could argue having a thread in the accessories forum but this one already has it covered. Plus we need to keep it growing.
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
Oh boy, my T-mo micro-SIM is marked as shipped now according to the order status (I haven't gotten an email, just been checking the status occasionally). So maybe I'll get that tomorrow instead of having to wait for Monday. :D

These what? Please don't say deez nuts.

Good News! She out for delivery today - Taking a long lunch (30mins to/from work) to pick her up today!
[Nexus 4 General] slowpc:
EDIT: Answered :)
[Nexus 4 General] idale:
Note that other than cases where the shipper explicitly requires a signature, depending on the area and carrier, you may still be required to be there (and potentially sign). Usually just in places where UPS isn't confident that the package will stay where it was left. But that's a case where you'd rather them not just leave it at your door anyway. :D

Omg classes are going by so slow. It says out for delivery btwn 1-5. Normally ups always comes last to my house around 8 so do they do delivery earlier if its 2 day air vs. Ground?

it's delivered to your house through a ups truck i dont think they fly it straight to you house so it will most likely arrive at the usual time (8 in your case)

mid morning thursday 11/29, still no shipping notification from google. Our mail room will deliver mail here shortly so we'll see if it arrives today just without any shipping notification being sent. I doubt it will. I'm growing weary and tired of waiting. Will make for the summit tomorrow
[Nexus 4 General] luke_c94:
My 16GB just arrived, although with no bumper, no shipping confirmation and no charge on my card, the pending charge is still there and it still shows as pending in the play store :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] :
You'll probably be waiting at least a week minimum. Maybe longer. I ordered the 27th as well, but it doesn't look like there's a reason to be waiting on a shipping email so early into the process.

I'd say just keep checking your google wallet account and wait for any changes.

No. Nothing after the confirmation email
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:

[Prepares flame suit]

So I got my phones yesterday... 2x16 gb and 2x8gb. One was for me (16gb), one for my wife (16gb), one for my father (8gb), and one for our 10 year old son (8gb). We are switching from Verizon and the phones seemed like the best deal, and I missed my Galaxy Nexus.

I changed my mind on giving it to my son though... He's good with his equipment, he's had a Droid 4, but I am more worried about him breaking the N4 with a drop or two. So I said I'll sell his... Turning into yes, that guy. I tell you though, after all is said in done, EVEN if sold for $500 I would only make a $100 profit. Paypal fee.... ebay fee... shipping.. insurance.... $100 for the early buy (day 1, 11:57am EST), staying up late to attempt to order, the frustrations. Not even really worth it almost.

If I could find someone to sell it to locally I would, no luck though so far. Anywho, loving the N4's!!!! My dad was amazed coming from his MyTouch 4g (lol).
[Nexus 4 General] iceberg4:
Exactly , I hope they put up longer shipping time so they dont have to worry about backorders and later compensate for it
[Nexus 4 General] dipdewdog:
Did you order on the 27th or the 13th?
[Nexus 4 General] Trashville:
you monster :mad::(:crying:
[Nexus 4 General] slopokdave:
Yeah yeah. :)

FYI, shipping international is just not worth it too. Anywhere via USPS is $40-$50.... once it gets to customs you are out of luck for insurance, tracking, and confirmation. UPS? HA. $150-$200.
[Nexus 4 General] Roxy:
Seriously? You're expecting to have yours shipped out within a day or two?

When you ordered your phone, it should have showed you the estimated shipping time frame, whether it's 1-2 wk, 2-3 wk, 3-4 wk, and so on...
[Nexus 4 General] luke_c94:
13th at 8:27am, minute or two after it went live.
[Nexus 4 General] iceberg4:
Do they put it in the mailbox if you are not at home?
[Nexus 4 General] :
It's cool you finally got your phone. Not cool that it was missing the bumper. Did you order one? Maybe they'll refund or give you a new one?
[Nexus 4 General] Roxy:
No. They usually put it near your front door.
[Nexus 4 General] mr71mb0:
And as if to eek out every last bit of pain for me in this whole N4 ordering shambles, my Phone's been out for delivery since 09:00 this morning and it's not 16:20 and STILL nothing. :(
[Nexus 4 General] sn0warmy:
You guys are being ridiculous. Do yourselves a favor and at least attempt to skim through the thread. Based on our experiences from ordering on the 13th you should just forget you even ordered the phone for AT LEAST 2 weeks. You will drive yourselves absolutely crazy checking your Google Wallet and order status every day until then (like we all did).

I'm not trying to be an ass but you are getting your hopes up just to be completely crushed. It will be at least 2 weeks before you can expect any form of communication from Google. Trust me, thousands of us already went through this whole fiasco.

[Nexus 4 General] WhenBearsReign:
So, hopefully my issue has been resolved. Everything is still "Pending" but according to a CSR I spoke with, everything is on track and ready to go and that I should get my phone before the weekend. If I don't get a tracking number tonight, I'm cancelling my order and picking one up from T-Mobile. This has been an extremely painful experience and I don't know if I could ever make myself buy a device from the Play Store again after this.

[Nexus 4 General] WhenBearsReign:
I really don't know what's good news any more when it comes to Google Play Store. I heard from CSR's all day yesterday that "everything is in order" but it wasn't until I called at 8 PM that I was told that my order had been "cancelled". I talked to 5 different CSR's yesterday, and it wasn't until the 5th that I was told something was wrong.

The only faith that I have comes from the CSR I spoke with checked a few "resources" to make sure my order was looking good. Not sure what it means, but it sounds technical so I trust them!
[Nexus 4 General] Roxy:
Uh... you'd have to file a claim if UPS if that were to happen. ( and contact google too. )
[Nexus 4 General] James BlackHeron:
Dude, sell it and don't apologize.

I don't have an issue with speculators and scalpers. It just goes to show that Google is selling this phone at way under the market value at this point considering the very low supply at launch. Things will settle out eventually with the prices.

I think in the future a <$300 fully-featured current-generation no-contract unlocked smartphone is going to be the norm. Technology always comes down in prices unless the crony capitalist big-corporations collude with each other to keep prices up. That's what they have been doing with the carrier-subsidized model up until now and Google is trying to break that door down to more affordable mobile electronics. That's a lot of the reasoning behind the whole Android project -to open-source the OS and keep prices down where companies like MS and Apple (and RIM and Nokia) would rather charge massive licensing fees above and beyond the hardware makers and keep choices down and prices high.

It'll level off and I bet by the end of Jan/Feb the new pricing paradigm is going to hit hard as other handset makers are going to have to follow suit or just plain die (lots of them are going to die -Nokia and RIM are toast) Nobody is going to buy Windows phone. Apple will go on selling designer high-end products just like they have with PC's and Laptops. But they will only control a very small portion of the market with their elite (and fooking expensive) products.

Android will rule. Prices will fall. Folks who are speculating on these phones right now better make their money SOON because by the end of the 1st quarter 2013 cheap good android phones are going to be everywhere and nobody is going to be able to rip off buyers any longer.

This phenomenon is simply the dying and thrashing of the beast before it falls. Prices are going down unless Apple and MS can win with their BS patent suits and get the government to squash their competitor rather than out-competing them in the free market.
