Guys just a warning, it's 18:30 over here in the UK...

As much as I would love to have my N4 in my hands, it's not going to happen tonight, and I need a break from all this (did you say social life? No no no no no...) So I'm going out for a while and leaving things alone. I'm not abandoning anybody

But just because we do not hear anything back from Dan or anybody else, it is not a reason to start bombing his G+ page, or sending anybody messages hassling for info. It's a Friday night, and the MD of Google UK may have personal commitments feeding orphans for all we know.

I am also trying to keep the existing communication we have had, "open and clean". If we all start sending messages, it may confuse things enormously.

Rest assured that I am as angry as anyone, and want answers. I will update you all as soon as I know anything as I have been doing. It's Friday night, let's spend time with our friends and loved ones, forget about all this crap and remember there are more important things in life. Who knows what Dan and Google have been working on, and if we don't hear anything after, then that will be the time to start raging.

Hope you all understand and treat everybody with respect.

Thanks and much love, Andy

(let's go have a good Friday )

RMA replacement

I double checked my RMA replacement receipt from my order this morning and it looks like it should ship in less than a week.

Order date: Dec 14, 2012 7:35:04 AM PST

Estimated Ship: Less than one week

However, if it is delayed for 3 weeks then what does that mean for this clause in the RMA:

UNDERSTANDING CREDIT CARD AUTHORIZATION (NOT A CHARGE)

An authorization for the full price of the replacement device will be placed on your credit card when you place the order in step one. This means that a portion of your card’s credit limit is held for several days, but no charge is made if your original device arrives at our repair center no longer than 21 days

from the date of this email

and the damage to your device is verified to be covered under warranty.

That email was dated last night....

Your lucky. I'm stuck with a partially working Gravity T dumbphone. Google is useless.
[Nexus 4 General] gbohm:
so play support wrote me that it will be shipped on the 19th how reliable is this for germany?
[Nexus 4 General] htownsmarty06:
I was this close to give up on google needed a new phone asap cuz im stuck with a partially working iphone 2g lol...hopefully u get urs soon :)
[Nexus 4 General] diablonyc2:
WOW --- Our stories are so similar! I faxed over a "distress" fax to corporate offices!....NADA I want to get it from an official sight in case I have to return it like SOOO many people are doing.

If I was head of the division I would have seen the open orders from 11/13 and went "What the hell are we doing! Let's send these guys a phone and figure out what happened AFTER the fact". But logic is out the door in this equasion...and all the pity from CSRs and Specialists is not going to get us our devices if the people up top don't make it possible.

I have a Nokia MusicXpress that I now call my "Ghetto Phone" because I have pulled the battery and dropped it so many times, I had to tape up the back. Now it dies intermittently dies for no reason. I WILL get a new phone, no mattter WHAT!

---------- Post added at 11:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

Exactly! Why are we doing this to ourselves?

Unfortunately, I still don't have enough posts to enable to to submit immediate replies, so I think I need to take a rest from XDA now.
[Nexus 4 General] nellisere:
I don't care about official responses from Google, I just want my phone!
[Nexus 4 General] remister:
They do have some at my local TMOBILE store. I guess I will be getting one. I can chill a bit and see if they ship next week.Good Luck guys!
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I talked to several people at google regarding this, two of them managers, they said not to worry about it, that they can assure me they will not charge my card until I get the device and it's been past 21days. I'll take a screen shot and show in a bit.

---------- Post added at 02:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 PM ----------

They are? They wrote on their Facebook that they are ready to go and I talked to joel, he says they'll be going out today. What happened???
[Nexus 4 General] Kougaa:
I ordered my replacement on Dec 3rd. I was told yesterday that replacements were on back order and would ship in 3-6 weeks by a specialist. Today, I got a shipping email and the tracking number shows that my replacement was actually shipped yesterday even before the specialist replied my email.

I dont know when your replacement will be shipped, but I bet it will be within 1-2 weeks.

As for the 21 day return period, I was told that it's 21 days AFTER you have received your replacement.
[Nexus 4 General] ImHavenHart:
My phone just arrived! I was a November 27 limbo 2er and only got my ordered processed after going completely HAM on a level 3 specialist. I mean absolutely nuclear because 5 of my friends received their phones and they ordered in December. I'm happy to have my phone but this entire thing has left such a sour taste in my mouth that I want nothing more to do with Google. I've just posted a Craigslist ad and I'm gonna sell it (at a $100 profit) and get a brand new Galaxy Note 2. I also have someone coming to buy my current mint condition Galaxy SII for $200, which will help pay for the Note 2 which is $629. Up yours Google I hope your office falls into the Pacific ocean when the next earthquake occurs. $500 for my Nexus 4 + $200 for my Galaxy S2 means I can buy the Note 2 ($629 tax and 2 day shipping included) and have $70 left over! F U Google!
[Nexus 4 General] klownkillah:
We all know not to believe what the CSR tells us as they don't actually know anything, this has been proven multiple times in this thread - this is why i am worried about the boilerplate email i automatically received from Google and the specific wording in it.
[Nexus 4 General] androidfoshizzle:
Note 2 is more of a tablet than a phone, I know my pockets arent big enough to fit that sucker, just imagin if a chick picks it up and says "this phone is probably bigger than..." Hahaha

HTC Evo V 4G F/S $150 (x2 extended batts,x1 OEM batt,x1 black trident kraken case,Zune headphones,8gb micro ad card)
[Nexus 4 General] ImHavenHart:
I had the first Galaxy Note, I love that phone. It's more of a phablet. It's about 5.5 inches vs 4.7 inch Nexus 4. The features on it just blow every other phone out the water for me, and I need something that is not as big as a tablet but not as small as the standard phones because I do a lot of blog posting and blog updating on the go so the Note 2 is perfect. I'd keep the Nexus 4 but I rather have my dignity. I'm not gonna let a company f me up the butt this hard and then still use their product.
[Nexus 4 General] cyanide911:
I did go through some pages, must've missed the posts.

Btw can someone link me to that Google page from where we can get an estimate of our shipping time? Can't find it, should've bookmarked it last time.

I was planning to place an order from the US Play Store. Do you guys think I should hold-off till Monday or is it okay to order the device on a Friday?
[Nexus 4 General] yyz71:

[Nexus 4 General] okplaya:
Ditto!

Man, this sucks. I'm considering getting a refund and trying to buy a new one. The catch is I will be without a phone.

Ouch, Google, ouch. I wonder if they will ever reach normal stock levels.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I don't get...when did you get that email, today? Why would Joel say they're going out today? Ugh...let me check my email.
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
Maybe its just me, but I cringe now whenever i see "orders will ship in the way they were received".
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
So I ordered my replacement on the 1st and still nothing, you ordered yours on the 3rd and are getting it? Nice...real nice.

Just received my 2nd nexus 4 today that I bought off eBay for 460$ and its absolutely worth it. Trade my first nexus 4 with a 32 gig iPhone 5, sold it at a high price then got this nexus 4 460$ and kept the change :D

:flawless victory:

Been awhile since I've hopped on the forum, just thought I'd update you guys. I received a shipping email last night FINALLY for my order from the 13th. Then today I received a shipping email for my Canadian order on the 3rd! Been a good few days if I do say so myself, should have both by Tuesday of next week :highfive:
[Nexus 4 General] adulel08:
Wow I ordered on the 12th also and didnt get any shipping email =(

Shipped to Oregon, was pending now it's stuck on Pre-order.

Did any of u guys see if ur order switched to pre-order before shipping email?
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
I did get the email...funny thing is that email was sent at 1:14pm, I talked to him at 11:30am, maybe he didn't know they were getting delayed? Or maybe I am in fact a glutton. :/

---------- Post added at 03:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:36 PM ----------

My first order from the 13th went from pre order then shipped in about a week. Not sure on that exact date.

Ctmeow means the 13th of November.
[Nexus 4 General] realfelix:
i could literally kill you for ordering 2 devices and preventing us from getting one
[Nexus 4 General] Ftwisawesome:
Order Date: December 13, 2012 7:41:22 PM UTC-8

then went to 'pre-order'

is this a sign of anything? because I recently canceled my order so hopefully whatever effing up googles system into processing recently placed orders happens to myself and others as well.
[Nexus 4 General] realfelix:
I am right there with you, right there! same boat! don't panic mate, the titanic will sink whatever you do :)
[Nexus 4 General] barondebxl:
One from play store one from eBay :p
[Nexus 4 General] Eric-1987:
I ordered mine 5 hours before you and didn't get a pre order notice.
[Nexus 4 General] htownsmarty06:
Mines did..ordered on the 12th status went from pending to pre-order within a few hours and received a shipping email the next morning.
[Nexus 4 General] Ftwisawesome:
Hold hands together mate <3
[Nexus 4 General] aboud83:
Me too December 13, 2012 7:28:25 PM UTC-8, hope we will receive a shipping emails soon :(

And I see in my orders history 2 devices instead of 1 but both of them have the same order number, so did you see 2 devices like me?
[Nexus 4 General] CaspaTheGhost:
Absolutely nothing happening with UK orders, apart from them going to preorder status.

[Nexus 4 General] haas599:
Just got a random 13.99 refund from Google. Had no idea what is was for so I googled "Google refund 13.99" and got this thread as the first hit. I've had my Nexus 4 for almost a month now. I never asked for a shipping charge refund but I'm not gonna refuse it either.
[Nexus 4 General] DowntownJeffBrown:
Why do you guys keep comparing your time ordered to others when their order ships or what status it is. If we have learned one thing its that this is a lottery it has nothing to do with what time u ordered. Also we have had people with pre-ordered and pending ship. Like I said before your Google wallet is what matters.

Edit: Yes I know people have had orders say pending in Goole wallet and receive their order.
[Nexus 4 General] ccgabe:
Another Nov 28 order here

I am sick of this nonsense, this is some way for a company like Google to run a business. I can understand it all except this crap of people being able to get an order in one day when I have been on hold nearly a month with absolutely NOTHING going on.
[Nexus 4 General] realfelix:
Well yes, I did, but for like 10 minutes and later it was suddenly gone :o Google is screwing up!

YES. Hold hands together! Don't let the nexuzzes fall into the water like rose did to jack!!
[Nexus 4 General] Eric-1987:
Well that just sucks is why. I wanted to get mine before i went on vacation on the 20th but that wont happen.
[Nexus 4 General] DowntownJeffBrown:
Look at your Google wallet their should just be 1 order. Google play is glitchy as ****
[Nexus 4 General] Ftwisawesome:
Seems like my canceled order and my newly placed order begin with the first part of the order number then after the full stop they differ with my new order going up in decimal places as opposed to my last order. Nevertheless i'm going to keep a look out and hopefully we receive our shipping notifications soon you never know what's going to happen it is friday :)
[Nexus 4 General] shonb123:
This phone release is a train wreck, Google please take note. After I saw that people who ordered phones well after me were receiving their phones I canceled my order for two 16gig nexus 4s yesterday and ordered 2 galaxy note 2s on Amazon.

I spent almost double on two galaxy note 2s. The nexus wasn't worth the hassle anymore. I use my phone mostly for reading, texting, emailing and browsing. I don't spend much time holding it up to my ear....

I'm pumped about the note 2. Google can keep their speedy updates and their poor customer service....
[Nexus 4 General] Eaffon:
I emailed google regarding the pre order status...they said its because my device is back ordered and then told me it would arrive 1-2 weeks later then my estimate...
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
Funny thing is, they usually have great customer service. In normal times they have been fabulous.
[Nexus 4 General] RealiZms:
Wow the Razr is one of the sexiest non-Nexus devices out there...and you're going to a Note 2? Different strokes for different folks I guess..And thank you for cancelling your order. Hopefully I'll get mine quicker now!
[Nexus 4 General] PaisanNYC:
If you ordered on Nov 13th, and got your phone after 5 business days, they automatically refunded you the shipping charge.
[Nexus 4 General] adulel08:
aw hope I get a ship email soon then, ordered on the same day!
[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:

Lol 2 weeks since my November 13th order was sent to a shipping specialist... this is the response I get:

"My specialist let me know that everything is ok on our end and that the item should ship soon."

Yea... sure it is, that's why its still not here 31 days after I ordered it. Thanks Google Support, you rock!
[Nexus 4 General] Gaurav.Stallion:
My phone was ordered in Houston. Anyhow, $499 is too steep. Damn. Sometimes I think of canceling my order and buying another phone, but then I doubt if I'd want anything but a Nexus. :\

WTF this makes me so angry! I still don't have my November 13th or my December 5th order. FIrst come first serve my ass!

Congratulations, thats awesome. Hopefully one day my November 13th order will come. I just don't think its ever going to happen for me though. :(

I'm starting to near the point where I just get another phone but I don't want an SIII that's 6+ months old. :(

My order from the 27th 2x16gb N4 4-5 week eta changed from pending to pre-order yesterday cc charged then last night got my shipping email so if your order changed to pre order check to see if your cc was also charged you should be getting it soon:)

Sent from my BAKED Nexus
[Nexus 4 General] abowmedia:
PFFFT and here's the response from Google Support to my ANGRY email to them about the "Shipping Specialist" follow up:

"We're researching reports of delivery lead times being misquoted to some customers, and apologize for the inconvenience.

We take these reports very seriously and are working hard on a resolution. Though I'm unable to provide specific delivery information at this time, I've made a note of your order and will get back to you as soon as we have an update to provide. We expect to have an update for you in approximately 24 hours."

I just want one of them to tell me "Dude, your screwed. You just don't get to have a Nexus 4, we don't like you, you suck." At least that would be more honest than these fluff emails.

The worst part is i have 2 nexus bumpers but no phones to put them on.
[Nexus 4 General] xpla:
I had it in my cart and wasn't able to check-out.

Tried to place an order. Store crashed. Retried couple a times, got it into cart, went up to the end where they ask for billing address to complete purchase and boom - crash.

Now cart is empty and 16G devices are sold out. In 10 minutes. I was waiting for this device for 1.5 years (sold my N1 in spring 2011..)
