I just ordered my second N4 16 g. tonight 12/15 7:30 PM. Says it will ship within 3-5 business days? We'll see.

Ordered first one on Nov 28 and have had NO word on it at all so far. Now I don't know if I should cancel the Nov 28

order? What a screwed up situation. .

I ordered the 16G and my confirmation mail says 32gb and price is $349.00 What is with Google, I am not complaining if it works out the way it says. :D

It does not resolve to the US Play Store. As a Mod, you should know each country shows a different Play Store based on the country's IP.

[Nexus 4 General] kangi26:
Right, I'll play......then all I'm suggesting is that you be specific where your info comes from. Based on your profile you show NYC, so I made the assumption(as did a few other folks, I'm sure) that this is from the "US based Playstore". If it's from outside the US, just say so, so it's not putting folks into a frenzy
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
Understood. I just thought many people here used proxies as well. I have seen many international users use proxies to access the US store when it was for sale there. Thank you for understanding.

no will contact you.. I am supposed to be contacted by SS for almost a week.. nothing in my email
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
Just an FYI, T-Mobile is all over europe, and there are still countries that did not convert to the Euro for monetary denominations and still use the "$" symbol for currency. Americans are very self-absorbed. Please stay on topic now. Thanks.
[Nexus 4 General] bruestle2:
I wouldn't say American's are self-absorbed, just that it isn't well known that the US dollar is used in Europe as a primary currency on ANY website. To be honest, that seems really counter intuitive.

[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Hfm, you crack me up! Only time I've been to NYC is when I stopped at JFK airport, but maybe that doesn't count? I visit my aunt up in Rochester, NY area at least once a year since I've been stationed in Virginia though... and I know upstate is MUCH different than NYC. Aren't you guys more a product of Jersey and Connecticut? I kid I kid. Say what you will about the moronic management of the Postal Service by Congress, I love using USPS. So cheap, and so fast. My mail carrier is better than any UPS or FedEx guy, and they often deliver faster! Btw, Jeff, that sock thing is brilliant! Given the sexiness of the Nexus 4, if it offered any sort of protection, I'd be covering mine with a lacy bra or a g-string, but entirely impractical as they offer no protection at all!

Back on topic. All this talk about updates to Play Store and all that... I have none. Mine still shows pre-order from back on the 6th and 8th of December respectively for my N4 and N10 RMA orders. I think in the end I'll end up keeping my N10 as I've yet to find someone without light bleed that doesn't have a dim band across the camera side of the device. The thing is excellent other than that, barring the really finicky notification light (it almost never works, even with lightflow). I thought I would have a little movement on my order after my CSR actually correcting (supposedly) and updating the notes on my account. Funny thing is... all those CSR's that left "bad notes" actually sent me a follow up email. This "upstanding" rep didn't even do that... so whatever. I have very little hope that my devices will be here by next Friday, which is when I drive to upstate NY. Thankfully I'll only be there till about the day after Christmas, so I shouldn't have any packages sitting on my doorstep for days if it actually ships... and have a decent neighbor that will watch out for my packages.

I pinged this thread yesterday, and no one in the window of the 1st through the 8th have received shipping or any changes to their order, so I assume all of those folks including myself are again in a limbo pocket. Hopefully this "sold-out" notice on the Play Store will be used to catch up with back ordered inventory instead of blindly shipping off to whatever purchaser gets an order in when they have devices on hand (i.e. people with an expected wait time of 6-8 weeks getting confirmation of shipping within 12-24 hours of purchase).

I'm already sauced up for Saturday night... anyone else still awake out there?
[Nexus 4 General] boondoc:
true story, my UPS guy has been driving around my subdivision for the last week or two on a golf cart.
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
I am kind of biased towards the USPS ;) They rock!
[Nexus 4 General] lalahai:
call up your CC issuer and ask whether Play Store requested an aithorisation of the invoice amount, if theres one floating in their system, youre golden.
[Nexus 4 General] rohitbhatnagar85:
yes the date in play store changed to 15th dec, Also Pending charge on my card today... but I will still wont keep hope untill I actually get a shipping email :)

(1-2 weeker) 27th 14:18 PST (2 Nexus 4, 16 GB)
[Nexus 4 General] lalahai:
that means thyre doing something bout our order then, if they fuk it up this time around again, imma swear im gunna change my default search engine to bing.com and start using iTools for my phone
[Nexus 4 General] rohitbhatnagar85:
I swear , they screwed all the respect I had for google... How can they blunder it for 2 weeks and realize it now.. too bad... I think I will go for note-2 if N4 is not shipped by tuesday
[Nexus 4 General] lalahai:
go for iTools dude, Note 2 is still an android device, show em your hate

So I've sent a bunch of emails out to different Google Play Support reps usually they respond back but havnt herd anything from anyone in days. I really hope they are working this whole circus out. If they cared about their customers they would have been done somthing about this or released a statement to hold people over
[Nexus 4 General] lalahai:
atleast we know theyre doing something bout it right now since most of us who got stuck in the loop had gotten updates of some sort today
[Nexus 4 General] James.UBC:

[Nexus 4 General] edwoo:
Finally, after having my date changed to 15 dec and a new authorization, I've got email from CSR that my order of 11/27 1-2 weeker will ship between 12/12 to 12/18. Well, giving me a date range starting with 12/12 is kinda silly when today is 12/15 but I am hopeful that it should ship come Monday..

Finally, they are putting the house in order and I must really thank everyone in this thread for a the collective info and actions that gave enough pressure to the higher ups to really start pulling their socks up
[Nexus 4 General] naveenvalaja:
Thats good you got email from CSR.

Whenever I send a query in Google Help Centre I get only one respose

"Orders are shipped based on the estimate in your order confirmation email. Once an order has been processed you'll receive a second ship confirmation email with your tracking number. It may take 24 hours for the package tracking to return any information for your tracking number.

If you have not received a package tracking number after the time quoted in your order confirmation email, please let us know.

According to our records, your order should ship by the evening of December 19.

Neuxs 4 backorders: Please note that the above date is based on typical shipment processing and does not apply to Nexus 4 backorders. Nexus 4 backorders are being delivered based on the order in which they were received. If you receive a shipping confirmation email, then you will be able to track your delivery.

All My Limbo'ers of Nov-13, Nov-27 (May be ? Nov28).

Hopefully your are going to get your devices shipped this week, there are all lot of folks who have communicated their frustraction to Dan on public domains, he has replied back and here is a copy of that.

Need proof?

Check Dan's Google+ for his updates and the below reply aswel.

So now, stop worrying and start expecting the device this week.

Dear all

I know that what you are going through is unacceptable and we are all working through the nights and weekends to resolve this issue. Supplies from the manufacturer are scarce, and our communication has been flawed. I can offer an unreserved apology for our service and communication failures in this process.

For those that originally received a 3-5 days shipping estimate, your orders are now in process for fulfilment. You can expect an email notification early this week which will include tracking information. Although you will be initially charged in full, you will receive a credit for the shipping charge soon after.

For others that received pre-Christmas shipping estimates, we anticipate processing your orders for fulfilment this week.

I realise that the people who ordered the Nexus 4 so early are among our most committed and loyal users and we are doing all we can to put things right.

Sorry again.

Dan﻿

[Nexus 4 General] rahulsampath:
I ordered on Nov 29th around 9:30 AM and is is 4-5 weeker. The only activity in my order status was that the Order date in my Play store account changed to 6th Dec. Is anyone else who ordered in the same time frame seen any action. I know I will have to wait a lot but I am scared whether my order may get lost in the Google system like in the case of 11/13 and 11/27 Limbos. I would really appreciate if someone can help me on this. :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] miniAndroidian:
Try to contact google via email. I heard about people who ordered the N4 and it should come in the next 5 weeks but after they contacted google it was delivered in just 1 week.
[Nexus 4 General] DarkShoko:
yep

yep i heard alot of people that order a few days ago and got thier phone already shipped that ****ed up i order as soon as i could so i get it asap but people that order after me already got that :\
[Nexus 4 General] edwoo:
I don't think there's a need to further push google help center at the moment. The email I got made it quite clear that the shipment target dates will :fingers crossed; follow the order in which they were placed.... This is an excerpt of the email I had today from the CSR who was handling my case

--------

Thank you for contacting Google Play support. If the quoted ship time for your order is 2-3 weeks, your order will ship between 12/12 and 12/18 with 2-day shipping. If your quoted ship time is longer than 3 weeks, then you will likely receive your device after Christmas

4-5 weekers who ordered on Nov 27 have started getting their phones shipped two days ago.
[Nexus 4 General] Mindfreak14:
Hello ppl ...my order date is 28th Nov 1.20 am EST ...and in play store its listed as "Pre-orderd" with date still being 28th Nov :( i.e not yet updated to any Dec date ...as many hv reported a change of date!!

Any reasons to worry?? Is mine jst lost and forgotten..

Any one else out there...having same situation as me??
[Nexus 4 General] estallings15:
Call customer support and ask them. We obviously don't know.

Ordered my Nexus 4 on Nov. 13th. Still waiting.
[Nexus 4 General] edwoo:
My guess is that practice was still happening until they suspended all orders on play store to get their house in order. If a couple of them 4-5 weekers manage to sneak thru prior, well, lucky buggers else it looks the definitive, at least for the time being. I just hope google doesn't screw up anymore. Btw, my orders are from US playstore.
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:

[Nexus 4 General] DowntownJeffBrown:
I'm guessing cause Google is trying to fix the system and those that ordered on the 13th or 27th or RMA,s should be receiving progress first. At least that's what I took out of Dan's statement and apology. He seems to be the point man now for this mess to talk to us even though he is based in the UK I think he is speaking for everyone.

So I was allowed to play with my phone this weekend just to see if all was good and I am happy to report that I received a good one:victory:. I linked my Google account to the phone(which should have been done before hand by Google since I opted for that option but who care right) and got a prompt to update to latest version of Android which I did. Played with it for about 10 mins just to check stuff out and boy did I love what I was seeing but then came the wife and took the phone away from me and wrapped it up till Christmas. I did notice that the phone, front and back was greased up real good by someone with butterfingers at the factory. At first I thought I received a used phone but after playing around with it it looks brand new to me minus the caked on grease on the phone. Just goes to show you how much LG is trying to keep up with demand when little things like this slips their QC.

why did you have to place a new order for the rma when u did it on 4th?
[Nexus 4 General] chavo360:
[/COLOR]

Yes, I haven't felt this much excitement for Christmas Day in a LOOOOOGGG time. I am so grateful that at least I will be able to have one for Christmas. At the end it all works out since I still don't have the case and screen protectors I ordered come in yet and my monthly Virgin Mobile plan is good to the 23rd so the transition over to T-Mobile on the 25th should go just as planed.

[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
They wouldn't let me change my shipping address without making a completely new order. When I did the initial RMA I never thought it would take this long to process.

Nobody know anything. Its been googles mantra to tell us nothing and keep us guessing starting with the starting time of sales on Nov 13. Damn guys we have been at this with Google for awhile now.

[Nexus 4 General] RealiZms:
I actually feel very bad for those CSR's. I used to do customer service and account management for a publishing company. One of the services offered by them was an online case resource guide for lawyers. It was an extremely useful service(if you're a lawyer) that billed the customer automatically on a monthly basis. The glaring downfall and my reason for leaving this company was this automated billing service would charge these lawyers 2, 3, 4, sometimes 5 times in a single month!!!! So I would get phone calls from angry lawyers that were pissed because the people that work at the bank look at them funny now that "I" overcharged their account a few grand...The answers I had for these lawyers were similar to what Google is giving us.
