[Nexus 4 General] sideeffects:
My experience in UK...

Was refreshing from 8. Phone was available from 8.15 tried to order.

Had errors adding to basket errors proceeding to checkout eventually got to payment with Google wallet and it gave me an error saying payment not taken.

Repeated above got to wallet again and gave me error again. Phone then became unavailable so I assumed I had missed out.

1 hour later got two emails saying I had two phones ordered. Rang Google to confirm and cancelled one phone. So seems I have one phone coming which is good. Cost me about £5 ringing them on my mobile though.

No ETA given on delivery but when I rang he seemed to think it would be 3-5 days as listed in sale.

[Nexus 4 General] UberSlackr:
I wonder how all the Developers/IO attendees feel, now that they have to sit and wait for the phone to become available for sale just like us ordinary people.. Since the Device Release IO was cancelled due to Sandy, they didn't get their usual free "Goody Bag" load with the new stuff.

:victory:
[Nexus 4 General] kissme99:
Anybody knows when the Nexus 4 (16GB) will be available in Germany?

(I mean when can I order it in Google Play in Germany)
[Nexus 4 General] thunderger:
google Ireland - in german! - has answered my question about aborted google wallet payment saying me that my order wasn't succesful and that they're sorry for my "problems" but they can't say when nexus 4 will be available again.
[Nexus 4 General] UberSlackr:
Why Not.. I use to do it all the time; Sex Ed (Health Class)... Didn't need it, was getting hands on experience in the back of my car, she was the best teach I ever had..
[Nexus 4 General] Plexicle:
Come and gone my friend.
[Nexus 4 General] chemoferd:
It's sold out already.
[Nexus 4 General] Todd:
From what others are saying Germany is sold out, will have to wait for re-stock.
[Nexus 4 General] jak3z:
Spain is sold out 8Gb/16Gb aswell. Probably all EU share the same stock, since all the phones will ship from Ireland to EU.
[Nexus 4 General] Kenneth131:
Correct all country's which the N4 went on sale this morning have now sold out. USA is later to launch so has stock and will go live later on
[Nexus 4 General] espionage724:
Well, that's disappointing... not too sure how much hope I have for the US's stock to remain for 3 days :/
[Nexus 4 General] Joshr:
Woke up at 2am CST to attempt and buy two N4s. Went back to bed when the notify me page never changed. Woke up again at 7am and remembered a detailed account of completing the online purchase. Couldn't find any email receipts of the purchase. Damn you scum bag brain for making me dream I bought the phones!
[Nexus 4 General] kissme99:
I know it's sold, but I wonder when I can order the Nexus again..

I was to early! I checked the Google Play at 8:10 am, I heared that it was available at 9:00 am..

So they don't know when the Nexus will be available?

So how do you think my friends? Next week? Next month? Next year?
[Nexus 4 General] Hemlocke:
It won't last all day today, let alone three days. I would bet money on that, even though we will probably get the lion's share of stock in North America.
[Nexus 4 General] :
lmao, sucks hard
[Nexus 4 General] Gloularis:
Three to four weeks I guess.
[Nexus 4 General] slowpc:
Good morning again. :)
[Nexus 4 General] ar47vn:
Guys, what about France? It has always been "coming soon" for me since the start of 13th Nov. I didn't refresh much though.
[Nexus 4 General] supercakefish:
Nothing more than a guesstimate but I would wager a few weeks. Late November/early December. LG will now have to manufacture new units and deliver them to Google's warehouses. That'll take some time.
[Nexus 4 General] P00t:
Can we rename this one like to US? I already see llike germany,Australia, india, uk....thread
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
Sure why not!
[Nexus 4 General] EvoYas:
anyone from USA or better yet Chicago, lucky enough to buy one yet? Man I already promised this as a gift to the wife and been sittin here watching movies on the half screen and refreshing that damn page on the other half and its been saying coming soon for the past 3 hours.
[Nexus 4 General] UberSlackr:
Anyone Notice that the Nexus 7 3G, is now listed with the AT&T Logo?

No Price Though? Does this mean its no longer Unlocked? The Unlocked 3G model is no longer shown...
[Nexus 4 General] Chochiwpg:
I wonder if the Canadian stock comes from a different location as the American stock. I know that it goes on sale for all of North America at 9AM PST. Just hope there is separate stock for Canada.
[Nexus 4 General] rickytenzer:
I don't believe that they've sold out worldwide. There are different SKUs of the product being sent to different countries. In Quebec, Canada, I will be receiving a model with French & English on the box/instructions. Those won't be sent to the UK for example.

Give it time. It will release for the US and Canada soon.
[Nexus 4 General] jimbob_me:
Guys, others have mused about possibly using tunnelbear to order a nexus 4 on the US play store for delivery in the UK. Anyone know if this would work?

1 person said that it wouldnt because orders placed from a US IP address can only be despatched to america.

Someone enlighten me please?
[Nexus 4 General] lnfound:
It should be a continuous process, they should've just started back ordering and increasing the ship date. With that in mind, they probably still have some stock. What's happening with the 20min "sell outs" is very strange, this phone will be popular on the long run but at this early stage is far from it.
[Nexus 4 General] qwahchees:
Is stock from the UK coming in from the US or do they have stock in Europe moving around there?

Also, when's next Google Play Restock for the EU?
[Nexus 4 General] UberSlackr:
ITs not available for sale yet... 11CST
[Nexus 4 General] VOLTAGEROCK:
Where is it??? Dag nabbit. I did same thing n set my alarm at 3 am est. No luck.
[Nexus 4 General] trident167:
You're right, us Canadians have our own supply with both language but, then again the instructions could already be in various languages and it's one big pool of N4's.
[Nexus 4 General] Plexicle:
Added that to the OP a couple hours ago.
[Nexus 4 General] Chochiwpg:
I think the chances of the US stock being sold out ASAP is possible. What are the chances for the Canadian stock? Ideas?

Regardless I already have the Nexus 4 (16GB) tab open on my desktop at work. Will franticly press the f5 button starting at 10:55AM CST until I get in to order :good::D
[Nexus 4 General] rickytenzer:
I doubt it. I was part of the N7 debacle, and the Google employee I spoke to informed me that they can't send me a US N7 due to the different SKU. I doubt they would change that system.
[Nexus 4 General] aimetti:
Would have been nice if google mentioned this say before 3 am ....
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
Seriously..

The Image you posted says Tmobile, but the N7 Sale page says AT&T

[Nexus 4 General] barondebxl:
Thanks for sharing dude
[Nexus 4 General] stumpyz9:
God dammit!! Ill be in the middle of english class when orders are supposed to go live. For a nexus 4 though, ill make it work
[Nexus 4 General] sinckerdoodlekins:
If you have Google chrome, you go to the Google chrome store, look up auto refresher, and then add it to your chrome.
[Nexus 4 General] Mr. Droid:
From the sounds of it I hope I can snatch one before its sold out
[Nexus 4 General] UberSlackr:
Ask to go to the bathroom & 9:00PST - then slip into the Library and Order it on the computer...

I'd go a few min early though, 'cause Google might have their clocks set wrong ;)
[Nexus 4 General] boogieroc:
If google did that it would be worst decision made.
[Nexus 4 General] dwd3885:
SO disappointed after staying up til 2AM CT this morning. Oh well. I got my Starbucks and am ready to roll!
[Nexus 4 General] lnfound:
9pst is not news. Just because the blog called doesn't mean much. Android police called too, so did many others who have said 9pst and others have said the CSR don't know. Yes, it's likely at 9, but that has been floating around from callers since yesterday
[Nexus 4 General] DroidDavi:
bathroom break
[Nexus 4 General] lazarat:
So why the eff google does not let customers know what time the phone will go on sale?
[Nexus 4 General] CaspaTheGhost:
Sigh, was looking forward to today but it's been a proper anticlimax.

Most definitely a FAIL.

Wonder if it'll be the same across the pond, most likely?!

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Nexus 4 General] dwd3885:
they did. Call CSR, 9AM PT
[Nexus 4 General] stumpyz9:
Maybe hagahga gunna try the old stomach ache excuse and see if i can go home early hahahah
[Nexus 4 General] dkotoric:
i have to say this is the most disappointing fail from Google I have witnessed so far. What a release date.
[Nexus 4 General] sinckerdoodlekins:
I called Nexus support, they said it could be as soon as 9 Central time or it could be as late as 11 central time. Who knows any anymore.
[Nexus 4 General] Konsyst:
Lol take a nap, go for a run or something.
[Nexus 4 General] Luxferro:
Google still has a lot to learn when dealing with customers. It's pretty sad they can't even communicate an accurate release date. Nevermind the ship problems that will no doubt follow too.

This is my total unbiased opinion, as a nexus s, galaxy nexus, and nexus 7 owner.
[Nexus 4 General] mwatson:
I've just been into an o2 store who are selling a 16GB for nearly £400 PAYG & locked!

Anyway.. they have a demo version i got to play around with, The build quality looks much better than Samsung. No so much cheap shiny plastic.

Screen looked nice, deep blacks and nice warm colours despite some reviews saying it looked washed out. The phone was very snappy as well.

Too bad I wasn't successful with the Play Store scramble earlier today.

The waiting continues......
[Nexus 4 General] lazarat:
Call csr? Thats bull**** we pay them money and they should act as interesting and wamt us to even call them? And even if they did, still too late because if it is their flagship device then is stupid to let customers know only couple of hours before it releases.
[Nexus 4 General] max1001:
Lol.

You guys just have no patient.
[Nexus 4 General] VOLTAGEROCK:
Shwang!
[Nexus 4 General] lombardo8:
Which O2 store was this? Might go in and play with one this evening.
[Nexus 4 General] aimetti:
nothing to do with patience google is border line idiotic as a whole when it comes to this launch.

Set a freaking date and a time its not fn hard.
[Nexus 4 General] dwd3885:
Ok, don't buy the phone then. Nothing to complain about. It'll go on sale when it's on sale. Multiple people have said 9AM PT.
[Nexus 4 General] kzoodroid:
That's because we're not running a hospital here. Patience on the other hand is running low.
[Nexus 4 General] mwatson:
It was at the Showbiz Capital of the world!!..... Basingstoke
[Nexus 4 General] MusicMan374:
I was so mad when I found out it would be 9am my time... I'm going to be in school :( Might have to skip a class to order this ****. I already sold my Sensation so if I have to wait two or three weeks for more stock I'm going to be stuck on a blackberry :eek:
[Nexus 4 General] lombardo8:
LoL :D.

Cheers mate. I'll check the one local to me later this evening.
[Nexus 4 General] her0n:
£400! That's just rude. Also have you seen how Handtec have used google's pricing (which includes VAT) as their price that excludes VAT? They're shoving another 20% on top of the price.

Well my credit card has an authorised transaction sat on it for the exact amount. Yay.

Was a lot of work though and I feel sorry for the guys that went through what I did and still didn't even get one.
[Nexus 4 General] CaspaTheGhost:
Agreed, knew of the previous fiasco but didn't think it would happen this time round.

Very disappointed.

[Nexus 4 General] zolah:
I waited up all night to get a phone hitting the refresh button every 5 to 10 minutes.

As soon as it went live I had my bank card ready to buy one but I just got error messages on the checkout for like an hour of trying to get it paid.

Complete joke. This is enough to make me consider leaving android and going windows 8.

Google are pathetic when it comes to sales.
[Nexus 4 General] Mr. Droid:
Bye
[Nexus 4 General] sinckerdoodlekins:
I'm sitting at my computer, with auto refresh on going every 5 seconds. I'm doing this for my boyfriend. He really wants the Nexus 4, so I have been up all night waiting, and running on only monster energy drinks. I hope I don't fail him..

Haha that's awesome, lucky guy. I was waking up every hour last night and am waiting for this to go live so I can snag one for my wife...though she told me if it's ugly she's taking my month old Galaxy S3. Here's hoping this thing is hideous. :D
[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
Any idea when the 16gb will be back for order in the UK?

This morning I got to order an 8gb one with the bumper.

The order is still pending on Google wallet.

I don't know if I should cancel it and wait for the 16gb or just go with th 8gb...

Will the next batches maintain the prices?

Cheers!
[Nexus 4 General] vineet381:
yes- sold out in 10 mins..

relax- not yet, starts at 9 AM PST:good:
[Nexus 4 General] paper_kiwi:
Only a few more hours to go if people are right.
[Nexus 4 General] c900712:
o2 sales rep dont know **** they say its locked but its not mine even works with foreign sim cards.
[Nexus 4 General] Audioboxer:
I'd say ~ 1 week.

Google will not increase prices, but there will still be fierce competition to buy from the second batch with retail (O2/Carphoneware house/ect) charging stupid prices compared to Google.

8GB is enough for me with Google Music, but you'll only end up unhappy if you really do need the space. If you simply want it for resale value or when you look at your current phone and have 90% of 32GB free, why not just enjoy the phone and not worry about what the internet says about 8GB. It's still a steal at £239.

Buying space on a phone you aren't going to use is simply a waste of money if you can save money and go smaller. It doesn't do anything to benefit the phone, it's just storage space. Kind of like the RAM argument, people always wanting to have masses of free RAM when RAM is there to be used.
[Nexus 4 General] sinckerdoodlekins:
Thank you. I just want to take care of my man... Even when he is asleep.
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
That's called dedication.
[Nexus 4 General] dkotoric:
lazy bastard, lol jk, but that is very nice of you, my wife just tells me I'm insane its just a phone
[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
I usually don't resalle the phones. My wife get's them...

She will get my Gnex when I get my Nexus 4.

I have 10gb used on the Gnex, but 6gb is mp3 files and I don't really listen to music that much...

I take lot's of pictures with the phone, have them all stored there, apps, games and such in 4gb...

So the 8gb might be ok...

I'm just not sure because I pulled the trigger in excitment after the 16gb sold out in like 10 min...

Cheers!
[Nexus 4 General] jpswer:
I feel bad for saying this with everyone missing out... but I have mine ordered and 2 days for dispatch is mad lol :P

Here I was listening to people saying same day dispatch but it doesn't look like that's going to happen.

Oh well looks like I'm stuck with my Nokia 100 for many more days, stupid boy for selling his Gnex.

Google Germany about restocking...

Google Germany posted following on their G+ site:

plus.google.com/117570067846637741468/posts/AEMkAyVDsA5

loosely translated:

We are overwhelmed by the interest for our new Nexus devices... bla bla bla...

We are doing our best to restock, although at the moment we can't say when the next devices are gonna be available through the Play store.
[Nexus 4 General] firemountain:
People who already buy nexus, money charged immediately, or before shipping?
[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
Mine is captive on the credit card, but not yet charged.

On the order it says it will be charged upon shipment.

[Nexus 4 General] barondebxl:
This thread is so busy!
[Nexus 4 General] dwd3885:
I guess it's safe to say that stock is low. And demand is very high for the 16gb. So what happens if the 16gb is sold out and only the 8 is left? Would you order the 8 or wait it out for who knows how much longer?
[Nexus 4 General] espionage724:
So wait, you can place an order, but it won't charge immediatly? I think if I recall right, back when I didn't have funds on a card for an app on Play Store, it gave me a few days or so to fix it before canceling the order. Perhaps this can place a N4 on-hold for me for a few days?

Really wish my funds were available today...

How long did it take for Nexus 7's 16GB to go back in-stock?
[Nexus 4 General] porkchopbolt:
Woohoo! Managed to get mine ordered this morning in UK at 8.45am. Was trying from 8.00 but the amount of problems encountered from the overwhelming traffic was intense.

Also got the bumper at 15.99. It'll probably turn out to be a rip off but i don't care!

Multiple people have said:

Midnight EST

Midnight PDT

6AM (somewhere)

9AM (somewhere)

9AM PDT

Even news outlets have picked up and run with some of those, though often silently correcting their articles after they missed. I loved the comments on one "learn to read - the article clearly says UK only" - and sure enough the article had been edited after the original comments pointing out the error were posted.

Almost all of the above times were accompanied by some claim to have gotten info from the support line. If they're anything like the support lines at my own company they're going to find out it is on sale only shortly after all the emails go out, which will be about 30 minutes after they're sold out. :)

Google posting on their website an official launch time with a timezone would have been helpful. At least it would save them a ton of webserver load all night long.
[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
You must have balance on the credit card. It is not billed immediatly, it is captive, kind of reserved.

There is not a transaction, but the amount is set asside to ensure you can pay for the purchase once it is billed.

[Nexus 4 General] Unconn:
I have a theory as to why they 'seem' to have sold out so quick (Not that any body really cares why they were not able to buy).

Most people ordering them were able to click to buy, but then by the time the went to pay have it missing from the basket at check-out. They might do this 5 times. This 'reserved' 5 phones and only one of which will be purchased. Server problems not supply problems? Maybe. We will know if devices some back up for sale within a couple of days.
