I've been waiting a long time for this. However, being on the East Coast I will have to wake up at 3a now to buy one. I'm sad because I have an important meeting I'm hosting at 8:30a. Do I wake up and buy one or do I sleep in and hope for inventory levels to remain high? Decisions, decisions. Maybe my 4 month old will wake up at 2:50a and make the decision for me.

Google has turned me into a fanboy. Damnit!

It looks like the N4 has some earpiece related issues...hmmm

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39936
[Nexus 4 General] outz:
I contacted them via Amazon... Explained the issue and asked how to get a revised model... They responded asking me to contact amazon for a refund since they shipped it... Even though SGP was the seller. Oh well...
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
Really?? If you look at the crystal ones for the nexus 4 and read the comments you'll see sgp reply saying they will send out revisions. I'd point that out to them and see what they say. Or leave a negative comment, that obviously ruffles their feathers.
[Nexus 4 General] MonsieurJohnny:
If Amazon refunds you then they take the money from SGP's account.
[Nexus 4 General] xdviper:
Static? If so, a friend of mine who has the N4, also has it. Also experienced it for myself.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
Heard it was a hissing sound.
[Nexus 4 General] outz:
nice, just checked out the comments. i just wrote up a nice negative review that includes the communication between me and sgp... should be up soon. i had contacted amazon earlier after talking to sgp and amazon immediately refunded me, so ill prob just find another screen protector later.
[Nexus 4 General] MonsieurJohnny:
Another day has passed. Looks like nothing for this weekend :(

Cheers to Monday. Really not much to look for in this thread until then.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I'm really bummed out about this situation.... Sgp are my favorite screen protectors, especially the crystal and glas t. I'm not even going to bother until I start seeing some good reviews. In the mean time I bought a 3 pack off eBay, which had good feedback on the screen protectors. At this rate sgp will have 4 revisions out before we get our N4's.
[Nexus 4 General] MonsieurJohnny:
http://www.bestskinsever.com/ has a buy 1 get 1 free deal so $10 and some chance will get you 2 full body Nexus 4 sets (2 front, 2 back) shipped or one for your other device and one for the Nexus 4.

Monday is THE day.... It just has to be, it'll be two weeks at that point. Something has to give.

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

I'm scared to use those because of the water installation :) especially with the curved glass. You like them? I plan on keeping the factory plastic on the back as long as I can.
[Nexus 4 General] kcbboy:
I normally use reallook but they don't have any for the N4 yet so I bought the SGP and a skinomi with front and back. My SGP has no issues though as far as I can tell right now and mine DOES have the cut out for the prox sensor. I bought mine directly through SGP though and not on amazon.
[Nexus 4 General] otariq:
No progress :/ at least the break helped time move faster please let Monday be the day
[Nexus 4 General] MonsieurJohnny:
I've heard a lot of praise for them but I'm not sure how well they hold up against others. Yeah I'm a bit iffy about the wet application but I think I'll mainly look to get it on the back, so I won't have to worry about it slipping or scratching on a table.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
Reallook liquid solution install? I've heard really good things about reallook.... I'm just so leery of doing a wet install, especially myself.
[Nexus 4 General] xdviper:
Water installation is no biggie. Place the screen protector in the bowl of soapy water, and then take it out, let the water run off, shake it a bit.

Apply it, align it, squeegee the water out and use a small piece of paper towels on where you're squeezing the water out towards. Do it away from the ear piece and speakers and you're done.

If the water gets in between the glass and case, don't worry, small pieces of paper towels and toothpicks will soak it up.

I'd rather do wet installations than dry, because you've got more than couple chances of getting it right, and can always take it off, wash it, and reuse it, if anything ever happens to it. And never have to worry about dust getting in between the glass and screen protector. It looks like **** for a day or two, then afterwards you can't see it unless you're looking for it.
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
Holy fark this dude had 14 bumpers, and sold one at $149.95!

This is getting ridiculous. I hope they sell more bumpers soon to screw these scammers
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
You're right.... A wet install let's you move it around better to line it up right. Ugh... Maybe I'll get the reallook and the best skins ever to see which is better. The curve glass worries me on the n4, but I guess if I don't install it soaking wet it'll be OK.

Hey, monsieur, I don't see bse for the n4 :/
[Nexus 4 General] kcbboy:
no....it's dry install.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I don't see it for the n4 though.... It could be right in my face but I'm just not seeing it. That's a really good price for full body! Thanks!

I've used the wet type screen protectors for years and all turned out safe. You can mess up with them but I've never damageda device from installation. I tend to get the screen area pretty wet to so thati can slide it around a little. Just use a glass cleaning cloth to dab the device after and let it sit for a few hours.

[Nexus 4 General] c0LdFire:
I doubt we'll see anything next week. 3 weeks, to me, means 3 weeks. From the date the email was sent out, that means Thursday, December 6th shipment, with a Monday, December 10th arrival. I doubt they will next day air the backorders since they won't have to meet their 3-5 day guarantee anymore.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
Me too! A clear, to show off that purdy back, green and teal. Must have bumper.
[Nexus 4 General] Hemlocke:
Yeah, $50 would be acceptable. It beats wrapping it in some tacky TPU case, and $50 is nothing compared to the peace of mind you would get from having it.

I've still got my back plastic on. (I received my nexus during Google's first shipment.) it's not so bad. I received the cheapest possible case off eBay today.... its fairly ugly but does the job I guess. I've got another coming in from amazon soon. I wish Google would get some bumpers in!
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I'm afraid with my luck my back plastic will come full of air bubbles, trapped dust, and put on crooked :/ So tells us, how's the phone?

Must have bumpers!
[Nexus 4 General] Hemlocke:
The BSE's are nice, and they are cheaper for a body kit than just a screen protector from Zagg or Skinomi (which I usually use). The Mofi is a perfect fit (One X-4XL), and I have an Androidified neoprene pouch on the way. Bare is best for this phone, which is why I will only consider a bumper for a "case."

So I was just about ready to buy BSE and saw that the sides of the front screen protector wrap around the phone? So what if it covers up the sim slot? That's on the side of the phone :/
[Nexus 4 General] xdviper:
Nah not the last. But the not the youngest neither. Here's a picture. This after a full meal and coffee
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Silly... just put the sim in before you apply the protector. I will be going over mine in every light angle possible prior to putting the protectors, as well as powering it on and checking for dead pixels and other problems. After that, the protector goes on. I ordered two anyway... either I'll mess up with some dust, or knowing me, it will be defective. How's that for sunshine?
[Nexus 4 General] Hemlocke:
Cover and forget. I haven't put the sides on, but I will be glad to do so. That's the only flaw in the fit and finish of the phone, that slight depression of the SIM slot, and the skin will smooth that out a bit. If you need to pull the SIM, peel the skin, wash it off, let it air dry, then reapply. That's why I prefer wet application protectors.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I don't think you have a choice but to use the sides, it's attached to the screen protector.

You guys are awfully optimistic, considering that thus far they've handled the whole thing like they're kids at a homemade lemonade stand. :o

I think it's completely out of Google's control. They're awaiting a shipment that gets here whenever it gets here. The best they can likely tell at this point is whether or not it's still "on schedule". If they had any magic left in their ole' top hat, they would have used it on launch day.

Unfortunately, the Google Kids are new at this.
[Nexus 4 General] stopswitch:
They are new to this, yes. But they need to re-structure the management at Google Play and hire experienced people to run things. Having enough server resources dedicated to the play store, making sure customers are served in the same order as they place an order, keeping customers informed of stock issues, making sure scalpers don't ruin the market by buying up all the stock, not allowing people to buy things that are out of stock. We know it can be done, hell we expect it, because we are use to other retailers on the internet following these rules especially since Google is a multi-billion dollar international company. This happened with the Nexus 7 and they didn't restructure management back then either, they need to fix this crap.
[Nexus 4 General] xdviper:
Oh man. All this LTE talk, and no one has mentioned this. The FCC does not know that the Nexus 4 is carrying LTE bands radios chips inside. Because of this they MIGHT be able to ban it. Also same with carriers, because licensing fees are also included with LTE. Hopefully this doesn't happen and is speculation.
[Nexus 4 General] chrisjcks:
Even if true, that's just a USA thing right?

If America isn't allowed any.... Maybe ill get my phone then, so doesn't bother me :)
[Nexus 4 General] Freshly_Snipes:
Lol.. Not even. They would have already banned it. They looked over every piece and approved it. It doesn't work like that. So please don't spread or mention that garbage. It's dormant until you physically go on and change it through a non user accessible menu. It was most likely going to be licensed by time the tmo/metro deal was done and they knew this and wasn't expecting us to find it out like this. However, it's fine and I HIGHLY doubt that it will be banned. FCC looked this this phone inside and out before approving for sale as they do EVERY PHONE.
