Non US credit card problems can be overcome with

I use it in conjunction with

http://myUs. com

So get your US address

Get your US virtual credit card

Get a vpn setup (not always. Necessary)

Get money onto your new virtual card

Get buying **** for a reasonable price! :good:

Thankfully not necessary for my N4..... Aussies now have Play Store:D
[Nexus 4 General] vido.ardes:
A petition won't help unfortunately.

The reason the nexus 4 is so cheap, is the same reason the Nexus 7 is so cheap, because Google makes nothing on it. The retailers only sell the 16gb (now 32gb) because the £50 markup goes to them.

With the Nexus 4, both phones are being sold at practically cost by Google (the manufacturer always makes money in these circumstances FYI). The cost Google is selling to us at is probably roughly what places like Phone arena and negri normally buy ALL phones at, and then they make their profit on top (the manufacturer probably makes more, so it is likely cheaper than wholesale price).

The only other big player do this? Amazon, and its because they control the retail. They can justify not making profit on the hardware, cause they make money on the content, and that is exactly what Google are trying to do here.

To summarise, Google will only sell it where there is a play store, otherwise they don't make money, and the shops won't sell it at what Google do, cause then they won't make any money.
[Nexus 4 General] lbrfabio:
It's worth to notice that Nexus 7 16gb manufacture cost is about 166$ while iPhone 5 16gb about 200$ excluding other "stuff". (so the Nexus 4 will be probably in that range price).

So, considering only ~30$ difference of manufacture cost between Nexus 7 16gb and Nexus 4 16gb but 100$ difference when they are sold, there are two options:

Google is losing a ton a money selling the Nexus 7 and they are selling the Nexus 4 at cost,

Google is selling at cost the Nexus 7 and making money selling the Nexus 4.

Is he basicall saying Google is still making money even with the nexus 7?
[Nexus 4 General] webDeWo:
Well, here, in Poland, there's no option to buy Nexus 4 anywhere. I could go to Germany on 17th November to buy it there, but I'm not sure if there would be any smartphones left in MediaMarkt. And the Nexus in Play Store costs €349 (16GB), so it's more expensive than in the USA. In MM it could cost even more.
[Nexus 4 General] lbrfabio:
349€ is more expensive than 349$ because of taxes.

349$ to € plus taxes = 349€
[Nexus 4 General] tegezan:
I am afraid that US$500 price is for 8Gb version... haha damn LG Indonesia.. :eek:

maybe we need to boycott all LG product to lower nexus 4 price.. :laugh:
[Nexus 4 General] Cuyi02:
What? 349.00€ = $447.62. There's no way you'll pay almost 1/3 of the price in taxes. Isn't the tax rate like 16% in the States?
[Nexus 4 General] lbrfabio:
You forgot to read "$ to €"

349$ to € = 272€ + (at least in Italy) 21% taxes = 272€ + 58€ = 330€ + a few dollars for import or something else I don't know

Spain too has 21% taxes. Germany I think 19%. UK 20%
[Nexus 4 General] Christian Troy:
That's what I think too. And when the manufacturing process is at its best they can earn even more since costs tend to go a bit down after few months.
[Nexus 4 General] vido.ardes:
I am sure they are making some money, but no where near what other people make on smartphones .
[Nexus 4 General] Christian Troy:
Correct but it's not written on stones that they have to milk us like cows...

[Nexus 4 General] fireblade:
There's no point for us to argue over this. Unfortunately it's all about marketing. We can blame LG for high prices and we can blame G for not developing a proper Google store network. Hopefully the ones can't access Google devices store will find a cheap way to get gnexus 4 anyway.
[Nexus 4 General] catfish7:
...

I'm sure other countries will get it few months after it starts selling in play store. And pretty sure some countries might want to make it before Christmas...

But as for the slightly more expensive price, it is expected as they would want to calculate the cost for shipping and so on.

As for here, Nexus 7 is selling USD310 instead of the USD249. Well it is better than some that never gets it.
[Nexus 4 General] chrone:
will definitely do it! :D

it took sometimes for samsung galaxy nexus to reach the Google Play Store price, hope with Nexus 4 price parity will get there faster. hehe

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nerys71:
so far the best pdf reader I have found is oddly enough adobe reader (fast and smooth)

but it views pdf's as a continious scrolling document.

I want to display only one page and then tap slide whatver to "jump" to the next page. I don't want to continuously scroll from page to page think more like how an ereader does it one page hit page next goto next page.

on the pc I can select single page of continious scroll. I can't find a similar option in the android version

any ideas ?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Plazmid:
Hello,

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or recommendations for a problem I have with my GN2,

The problem is that I use a pattern lockscreen with my GN2 and when I use my Motorola 730 bluetooth headset to make outgoing calls, it won't work when the screen is locked. It looks like this is because the phone activates the phone's voice dialer, sVoice, which won't launch when the screen is locked. Is there a workaround for this, or a similar bluetooth headset that will work with a locked screen? I would like to both make and receive calls when driving, without having to put in the diabolical pattern I use to unlock the screen.

Thanks in advance,

-Plaz
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] aquaholik:
I have the same problem with my Galaxy S2 and now this phone when a lockscreen pattern is used.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Ghost_1:
I have the same problem. Except I'm using a Jawbone Icon and face unlock. From what I can tell it might be because it's trying to open S Voice instead of the normal Google Apps or it's Touch Wiz. Either way When I'm on the road, which is all the time it is super annoying to have to unlock my phone before using the hands free... :(
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] aquaholik:
I think I found the solution but I have to test it with my note 2. Download automateit pro from play store and toggle it so that Bluetooth connected will bypass lockscreen and bluetooth disconnected will engage lockscreen. For $1.60 it is worth a try. For some reason it still won't work on my GS 2. From a lockscreen, as soon as I connect the bluetooth, the pattern screenlock is disable and I can operate the phone BUT I still can't activate voice dialing either from the headset or long press search. The voice control app still think the phone is lock. It maybe because I am on custom ROM on my GS 2.

.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] aquaholik:
OK I think I found the solution to this locked screen and making outgoing call with bluetooth using S Voice.

When you use a lock screen of some sort besides the swipe, you get this problem. You are fishing, the phone is in the waterproof case, or in your pant pocket, you activate S Voice using your bluetooth and S voice will not come up since the phone is locked and you can't make voice dialing until you unlock the screen.

Solution:

Tap the green phone app, select call settings, Accessory settings for call, look under BT headset settings for outgoing calls, enable Make calls even when device locked.

Now using my LG stereo bluetooth headset, I still can't directly access the S voice when the screen is locked. But, I can long press the call button(on my BT headset) and then it will dial the last number called. Then I quickly hang up, lightly press the call button(on my BT headset), and then S voice will be enable and I can say "Call David Mobile or play music, etc).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aranurea:
My only concern is the this device doesn't have a micro SD card slot and the max memory currently announced is 16GB. I can be almost sure that there will be a 32GB version but the question is when. How long do you guys think it will be before a 32GB version of the Nexus 4 is available?

You should probably confirm:

My guess is you probably tried to flash something not meant for your phone.

4. CWR warned me that the phone might try to Flash the system recovery on boot and asked if I wanted to prevent it... so I let it do it's think

5. phone *reboots* but does not turn back on.....

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Towle:
I suppose they could have changed it since I did it the last time (Sept) but that would be crazy if they did. I get most of my phones by trading etc. And have always had them replace phones if needed (since g1 times). But I've never actually said to them that I didn't buy it new, and I've never had them ask. Maybe it's one of those things that it would be too much work to keep track of, but they can deny it if they know? Cause it could be from a different line on the account that had an exchange a few months ago so the imei wouldn't match the receipt anyways. They would need to hire an entire department to go through all of the exchanges.
