My guess is they will put up more stock as soon as they have filled backorders which could be this week or next(Dec 6 at the latest)t. With 2 day shipping those new orders could easily arrive before christmas. I'm sure the Play Store will find a way to surprise us all.

[Nexus 4 General] mafiaboy01:
I really hope they would ship our orders before taking more. I mean if we haven't gotten ours shipped then they shouldn't have gotten stock yet.
[Nexus 4 General] WhenBearsReign:
So called CS, basically the same **** all over again. They don't have any additional information which tells me a) they didn't get a new shipment b) Google really loves keeping everyone in the dark.
[Nexus 4 General] gbroon:
Can I bring a flaming torch instead?
[Nexus 4 General] surferdude73:
Honest answer, it is either going to be close, like less than half a week close, or it's not going to happen, and I'd lead towards the latter.

They'll get more stock, but the first attempt sold out in minutes, with basically no hype outside of the enthusiasts. Now, this phone has been on the front page of Google News - Technology, for a week. Everyone knows about it. Everyone knows that it is the hottest phone available, at a swappa price, with the benefit of no contract. I'd imagine demand for the second wave is going to be twice what it was, bring in even MORE scalpers who are watching their comrades rake in the money while they missed out.

Even if your bro gets the order in, he could still be LLed / BOed, etc.

The 24th is Monday. Travelling internationally means his flight is probably in the morning. So you can rule out Sat-Mon, making Friday the 21st the last day it can arrive. So you need it 4 weeks from now, and they haven't even filled the orders from the first wave and aren't expected to until Dec 6th or so. Giving you TWO WEEKS from delivery completion of first wave, and that's a big maybe! What if first-round orders are still outstanding after the next shipment????

I don't see it happening realistically. Sorry, I hate giving good people bad news.
[Nexus 4 General] Clayfree:
We need both since google keeps us in the dark! See post above

[Nexus 4 General] surferdude73:
After the play store debacle, I don't see them having a staff working today. I'd think they'd need Web, DBA, and Windows support at minimum, and probably a full staff unless they have seriously beefed their device store. Friday after Thanksgiving? Not likely. They definitely do not need the Black Friday buying spree.

So yeah, I imagine they are at home besides a skeleton crew to run mission critical support.
[Nexus 4 General] WhenBearsReign:
If they delay it past the three weeks, I'm done. Unless they give me the phone for free, I don't think it's worth waiting for them to take the money off my card.

Just got this from Google.. There would be more than the 16GB nexus 7 if something was happening.

All signs were already pointing to no.. but no one wants to see them.. Here's a big one..
[Nexus 4 General] FISKER_Q:
Won't a software update disabling LTE cut it?
[Nexus 4 General] WhenBearsReign:
I don't entirely understand why they would be recalled. Anyone care to explain?
[Nexus 4 General] munchy_cool:
same here ....it aint working in the US.

also they will put out a software update to kill the LTE ...
[Nexus 4 General] surferdude73:
I think you are looking for "if".
[Nexus 4 General] stopswitch:
The FCC did not approve the phone to use the LTE bands, only GSM/HSPA bands. Also, Google has not paid the patent fee on the LTE part of the chip to Qualcomm (keeping the cost down). If this become problems, they may have to change hardware to prevent access to the LTE chip. A lot of people are saying a software fix will do this, but how can you rewrite software to prevent this, when people just re-rewrite it?
[Nexus 4 General] gbroon:
I think its because its been found it can use some lte bands which it hasn't technically been certified to use.
[Nexus 4 General] Orange_furball:
Stay strong. Don't feed the scalpers

Want to order a Nexus 4, but Google is dumb. Now I have a GoPhone.
[Nexus 4 General] kcbboy:
I got that email too but I think the only reason they list the nexus 7 cause it's the cheapest device they offer. Notice they didn't list Nexus 10 either. They're just trying to entice people to go to the page and look at the N7 and then run across everything else.
[Nexus 4 General] stopswitch:
It WILL be working in the US, T-Mobile is currently deploying towers on the same LTE band that the Nexus 4 is able to use. All you would need is a new sim allowing access to the LTE network.
[Nexus 4 General] Mash87:
if software can disable the LTE functionality it can be reversed anyway.

Only way I can think of at the moment disabling LTE for good would be an efuse
[Nexus 4 General] munchy_cool:
well reversing the lte is what xda can do and that ain't Google's problem I guess
[Nexus 4 General] Clayfree:
Agreed! Save that stuff for Facebook
[Nexus 4 General] FISKER_Q:
It could have efuses, in which case they could simply disable the parts of the hardware providing the functionality.

But i'm still wondering, would it be an actual legal issue if they only turned it off in the software, and allowed others to reprogram it, or are we just speculating that it would be?
[Nexus 4 General] stopswitch:
Only thing that might save us from the FCC is that there is no LTE antenna on the device, so its practically useless.
[Nexus 4 General] drspine:
Got the same email you did. I am curious why they think we have any more info than they do and why to tell them?

Email? They got LIVE chat so you can talk right away, and they're always willing to give a refund or anything to make it right. Amazon in my experience is the best online retailer.

With all respect but I think you're wrong. Google / LG should have made sure that the LTE functionality isn't usable at all. I would say in a law suite they would loose.

Seriously. This thread has acted as a great support and information center for many frustrated with lack of communication from Google concerning their Nexus 4 order. It would be a shame for it to be shut down from some people posting hateful off-topic replies.

Back on topic: I'm back from a great Thanksgiving and want my damn phone! I don't think we would get any info today since UPS only handles delivery of priority packages in the US today (or so I've heard).

It's not hard to cause trouble on eBay. I'm not condoning this, but if you were to simply buy all of them and then place a chargeback on all of the money, all it would cause is a delay. Perhaps enough of a delay for the N4's to be in stock so he can't make as much money anymore.

[Nexus 4 General] Clayfree:
You guys are your own worst enemy. The whole point of this phone was great hardware at a great price. If people pay $600 for this then it defeats the purpose. If no one was buying these at this price it would drop overnight. Do you really have to have the phone now and can't wait 2 weeks?

If people keep paying $600 for this on eBay just imagine what will happen the next time Google opens up orders. If I were one of these scalpers I would try to buy 100 from the Play Store. Every time someone buys from eBay they make the situation worse for everyone else.

Of course if Google had supply or IF they had a better ordering process none of this would have happened. I ordered 2 - one for me and one for my son so I guess that's why I got backordered. But how on earth Gooogle sent out orders of 10 and even 34 I will never comprehend. :mad: Especially when they turn around and tell single order people they will have to wait 3 weeks.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
*Sorry for posting the same pic twice, I can't tell which is the duplicate so that I can delete it, so I'll just keep it there instead of messing it all up. I also posted my bargain so you guys can see both the 50% off coupon and the buy2getone coupons can be used. Coupons expire at 11:59.

Ok, here's something that might cheer everyone up. Cruzer lite has a 50% off code that they posted on their Facebook page. It's off their AMAZON cases, and I believe their website as well, 50% off 1 item. I'll post the details if anyone is interested....AND get this, you can also use their code "buy2getone" along with the 50% coupon! I just bought 3 nexus 7 cases, it came to $30 and free shipping, the cases go for $20 each (but I had a $25 credit to AMAZON from the app "smartmate" that gives you $3 amazon coupons each month for letting them track your usage on your devices, so it was free :)

Anyway, I think it's a great deal for anyone looking for cases for their phones (they carry all different phones/tabs) and I thought I would share it to put everyone in a better mood :)

Apologies for not receiving a backorder notification update on your order sooner. Due to overwhelming demand we sold out of Nexus 4 extremely quickly. I’ve verified that your delivery is on backorder and will ship within the next two weeks.
