the Phones come direct from LG and are sold by Google and T-Mobile, third party resellers atm are getting them the same way as individuals, just that they order in batches....so I'll use kimstore as an example, if their supplier at the moment is in the US, their stock will be affected since the US stock is depleted atm, kimstore will have to wait for their US purchaser to receive their order then ship/freight forward it to the Philippines, if their supplier is Europe/Australia then the same constraints apply since it seems that the Nexus 4 is in short supply everywhere...hence the reason kimstore is out of stock...Now it would be different if LG officially launched the phone world wide, and kimstore had some sort of reseller agreement with them....in which case then kimstore and other retailers would be getting weekly shipments in direct from LG's warehouse...as of now tho the only way you can get the phones is from Google Play or T-mobile...this is the reason you don't see stocks being replenished daily.
[Nexus 4 General] stankyou:
Yup. This is probably the reason why they don't have a definite release date for other regions as of the moment. All their stocks are being routed to US and Europe and since they didn't expected the demand would be so high.

[Nexus 4 General] ads.underground:
but when looking at the Google Play Store website you will see that the Nexus 4 16GB variant is not sold out. although shipping takes 5-6 weeks but i've seen reports on the internet that people who ordered are getting it in a week or 2. so hopefully this is a good sign.

also, i tried to order the galaxy nexus from kimstore. apparently they don't do meet-ups in megamall anymore. so i guess i have no choice but to wait for this. must be a sign. :D
[Nexus 4 General] djkinetic:
the whole ordering and shipping thing with the play store is completely random, theres some people that ordered on the 27th and still didnt get thir phones shipped yet some people ordered last week and already have shipping info..

If you really want Gnex I saw one in trinoma. Price is slightly higher P16500 it also comes with 24 months warranty.

I think I don't have enough Patience anymore to wait for N4 to be available anytime soon. I ordered one from roopy's for 23k and expected it to be receive by Wednesday.

How does LTE improves battery life?

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 General] sigma392:
Benchmarks from the "Great Battery Impressions" thread.
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
LTE itself doesn't give good battery life, it just gives out fast speeds that let you download faster and lessens the time and saves battery, unlike 3G it's slower and makes your device exert more juice that's why your battery drains faster. But in REALITY LTE is just giving faster speeds and does not save your battery, but in THEORY yes it will save some battery since your download speeds are faster.
[Nexus 4 General] :
In that aspect of yes, but constant LTE in my iPhone 5 uses around 20% more battery than 3G. Prolonged/constant use of LTE does make the device warmer as well.
[Nexus 4 General] itenos:
What kind of average speed di you get on LTE here in the Philippines? I'm really getting desperate with Smart here in Manila Malate area. In the last 3 months I never got more then 0.2 MBit download in average on HSDPA. Today I went to the Smart center in Robinson and tried a LTE SIM in my nexus 4 and speeds went up to 3 MBit in 3G. Unfortunately you cannot keep your number while migrating to 4G so I continue to suffer.

Smart really sucks in Manila! In Bohol I easily reached speeds of 6 MBit with the same SIM card.
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
With my lte phone using smart i get an average of 14Mbit. Max i got was 29Mbit. Of course i can't achieve this on the n4 since it doesn't support local lte bands so if i place my sim inside it i can only get 2-3Mbit ave with 6Mbit max. What do you mean you cannot keep your number? If it's just migrating from one plan to another it shouldn't be a problem. I've been on smart postpaid for over 7 years and have migrated from different plans and still use the same number issued to me originally.

sent from within the depths of my brain
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
I'd agree to this particularly on the battery saving part. I'm online 24/7 and if in an lte area i'd actually have more juice left than if I'm on 3g down. Because it's faster you spend less time using the phone than if the data speed is slow hence more screen and juice running

sent from within the depths of my brain
[Nexus 4 General] apatal:
with battery life in a particular network mode, signal strength is also a factor. The better the signal in your area of your network mode of choice, the better your overall resulting battery life will be as the radio won't have to work as hard. For a country where LTE isn't as widespread (and 3G is not too admirable either), you can't expect good battery life if you want to keep connected to it.

Oh and yeah, as your radio works hard to find you a signal of your preferred network mode, it tends to heat up faster, thus, your phone may become warmer during use, depending on signal strength.
[Nexus 4 General] GalaxyNexusPH:
I've heard there are repeaters that boost signal strength 2G/3G/LTE. Anyone tried this yet? I was hoping I could get LTE on my room instead of just HSPA+. Anyway I haven't used my N4 since I got my S4. Waiting for the Nexus 5 to come out because of rumors it has LTE.
[Nexus 4 General] :
Regular speed of around 7MBPS in my residence but can reach around 42 MBPS in areas near the LTE towers of Smart here in Davao City.

Im on globe so i usually get 4g speeds aroynd 7-9mbps. I school. Lol.
[Nexus 4 General] GalaxyNexusPH:
I use to get 25-30 Mbps last May when I got my S4 (Korean version). Now I only get 7-12 Mbps normal speed 25 Mbps max. There are even days HSPA+ is faster than my LTE. Smart has a much faster max LTE speed compared to Globe. I've seen my officemates go 40+ Mbps while my Globe LTE only got to 32 Mbps top speed.

Guys, is this working here in the Philippines? The LTE hack? TIA!

[Nexus 4 General] itenos:
That was what I was thinking too but at the smart center as well as at customer care at *888 they told me that you cannot keep your number because you have to physically change your SIM card and apparently they don't have LTE replacement cards.

Did they change the SIM in your case?
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
The only time I needed a sim replacement was when I went from mini sim(which majority believe to be as a regular sim since they didn't experience the real regular sized sim cards the size of a credit card :P) to micro sim. I changed my plan from an old data plan to lte plan even when the sim was still in my n4. I bought a new phone supporting lte and it was plug and play. No change of number needed nor was there a change of sim. Go to another center. They're giving you a runaround

Well here's the thing. You said 'in hope that maybe the person would do a little reading and stumble upon the answer' . Obviously if the person does some reading, he could have back read not 5 pages from here and the answer would have been present so the question could have been avoided in the first place. I wouldn't be making a reaction if a question is asked like tens of pages back and is asked again but it was just a few flips of a page. How hard could that be?

Ok, since we're diving deeper, here's my two cents. (pesos) It would have been easier (?) just to fly off the handle like a lot of people do here and other forums who feel it's their job to down rate and/or denigrate the poster, but that irks the heck out of me.

Everyone wasn't born with a android/computer in their hands as they entered the world like some people seems to make people think they were. EVERYONE was a "noobie/newbie ONCE! Everyone doesn't know EVERY nuance of forums and so forth, it's really ludicrous to think that everyone who venture into a forum would know what to do.

So instead of being a (insert any adjective), I'd rather be polite about it instead of being condescending toward the poster. ;):cool:
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Answering and supporting other people is 100% ok, although sometimes they ask the same question over and over again. So, if you feel like answering it, then answer, or if not, just let it be. Simple as that.

P.S.

For all other country Men that'll be asking the LTE question. Nexus 4 LTE Radio is "NOT" supported by any carrier here in the Philippines, if you want to have LTE, wait for the Nexus 5.
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
And let me add that it is also stated in the rules of the forum particularly number 1 that one should search before posting. I think doing some reading a bit would generate the info needed for whatever topic was presented. true we are all newbies once and we don't know all answers but putting in a little extra effort would give us what we need. that isn't so hard to do.
