Progress ... to the next level anyway.

My play store order date just updated to the 19.

Original order placed on the 13th at 11:41 est, I got the confirmation email. No BO email.
[Nexus 4 General] droidmakespwn:
Go to orders page and check the date. Mine said 13th every time I navigated to it. I hit refresh on the page and it changed to the 19th. If it still says 13 try and get to the orders page, refresh it, and see if it changes.
[Nexus 4 General] camoto:
Wallet Order Date November 13, 2012 4:36:10 PM UTC

Never received confirmation email

Play Store currently shows November 17, 2012 (updated over the weekend) and Shipping estimate: November 15, 2012

***just hit refresh and now it is November 19th.... wtf***

Charge is still pending on Amex

Never received any email about this order

Called Friday and they told me that "I should be seeing something this week", but after looking over this thread not believing it.
[Nexus 4 General] goldmantx:
So interestingly enough I have been in Limbo level 3 and I called this am for the fun of it and of course got the BS replies y'all got. She told me they got millions of orders and didn't expect that type of response.

Now, less than 20 mins after my call, my order date has changed to the 19th. Seems suspicious to me, or am I just looking for a conspiracy theory here?
[Nexus 4 General] liorra3:
where did you see the 19th ? i cant find it ...
[Nexus 4 General] Geo411m:
I don't think so. Mine was the 17th and they changed my again to the 19th just 5 minutes ago. Why would my order keep dropping down the list?

BTW, I ordered that Nexus 7 months ago for $249 and now I see it as complete for $199. Not sure what that's about but I hope they don't try shipping/charging me again for that since I didn't order that recently. Maybe they'll make a mistake a send me a new Nexus 7 and not charge me? I can dream right :p
[Nexus 4 General] itznfb:
Or that means they'll just keep moving it and we'll never get a phone.
[Nexus 4 General] jmejiaa:
No update on my order still..

Wondering if I should go ahead and order a TPU case for it..

I'm loving this S3 though.. What are the chances of me loving the N4 more.
[Nexus 4 General] Novi84:
With all of y'all getting the 19th update, I don't even want to see an update on my order.

I feel special with my still-13th-date :)
[Nexus 4 General] menting:
it's not "order date"

if you mouse over it, you'll find that it's "when your order was last updated", which is good. You'd rather have a 19th date than a 17th or a 13th or a 15th
[Nexus 4 General] derschlub:
Mine just updated to the 19th as well, hadn't moved since the 13th and was stuck on 'Pre-ordered'.. Now says 19th and Shipping Estimate: 15th.. yay?
[Nexus 4 General] lyricez:
Ok.. so I have 3 different orders.. 2 N4 16, 1 bumper. The first N4 I ordered ta 0836am PST switched to the 17th on Saturday. The other 2 stayed 13th until 2 minutes ago. The N4 I ordered at 6pm PST just shifted to the 19th.. I really want to believe this means the first N4 will ship out first. But all I think this date changing means is someone manually looked at your order in the system and verified it as a valid order.

I doubt it has any true effect on when your phone will ship. ESPECIALLY since some people are having 1 device change dates more than once.. man this is one hell of a cluster ****..
[Nexus 4 General] itznfb:
Look at this smart guy over here.
[Nexus 4 General] Todd:
I so am with you on that one.

I think they lost a few more cell tower contracts as of late or due to them moving to 4g.

Ouch. Thanks.

Can anyone with mychoice that is expecting their phone today chime in that they received their night-before-email?
[Nexus 4 General] tulongest:
I want an order date change too :(
[Nexus 4 General] biggiephat:
My nexus 7 dropped to 199 too but the original price is still on wallet. Should I demand my refund for the difference? Lol I doubt they will do it themselves.
[Nexus 4 General] wililye:
same here
[Nexus 4 General] munchy_cool:

500. That's an error.

There was a server error in handling your request. 500 That's all we know.
[Nexus 4 General] svengalis:
Mine has changed to the 19th to, but I am not sure what that means though?
[Nexus 4 General] Clayfree:
Same here. I too got updated from 17 to 19 this morning.
[Nexus 4 General] munchy_cool:

[Nexus 4 General] krohnjw:
I got an email this morning (6am) from UPS stating both deliveries would be today. Tracking in UPS confirms that (out for delivery on both).
[Nexus 4 General] Ajfink:
I don't think it matters....
[Nexus 4 General] lyricez:
I doubt the dates mean anything other than someone manually looked at your order and verified it as valid. The sooner someone looks at your order (meaning having a 15th/17th) is probably better, but who the **** actually knows.. lol.
[Nexus 4 General] the_r2d2:
Ordered at 9:01 AM PST on 11/13, received confirmation at 9:38 AM PST

Got BO on 11/15

Date in My Orders changed from 11/13 to 11/19...

What does this mean? Will call Google Play later...
[Nexus 4 General] Geo411m:
The s3 is a great phone. The only thing I hate about it is the home button/lack of multitasking button. Having played with both the Galaxy Nexus (GN) and the S3 I prefer the GN so I'm sure I'll love the N4 which should be the same as the GN only faster.
[Nexus 4 General] Todd:
Yes I did..
[Nexus 4 General] lonz358:
My order got changed from the 13th to the 19th...first change I've got since order conformation so I'm happy to see any change at this point :) 8gb 11:44 est
[Nexus 4 General] kzoodroid:
The "Date" is the last date the information was updated (says this if you hover your mouse over "Date"), in my case November 19th. But my Shipping date is still the 15th and has never changed and I got the BO. So periodically Google updates the info even if it doesn't change which leads to a new date being posted. It's the shipping date which is all important here.
[Nexus 4 General] itznfb:
There is so much information buried in these 16000 posts that would be nice to have in the OP
[Nexus 4 General] liorra3:
suks, still on 13th for me...
[Nexus 4 General] munchy_cool:
means you are in the same boat as a lot of us

Limbo lvl 2

Limbo Level 2

My brother ordered at 10:32 UTC

Order date updated from 13th -> 17th -> 19th

No BO, Just confirmation email

Google Wallet Pending

Living in CA

Brother says money already withdrawn from bank account (Dont know what this really means)

I´m in no hurry, I live in Sweden and my brother comes home for christmas, so hopefully it will come with him. This whole process just makes me wonder what has happened.

Anyways, time is standing still in Limbo, lets me have more time to do stuff I never got to do in reality.
[Nexus 4 General] luke_c94:
It's 3PM here on the 19th and still no new info from Google, ordered at 8:27 GMT/PST , Wallet says pending and shipping estimate 15th and order date still says the 13th. :(
[Nexus 4 General] angrymachines:
Nothing has changed for me...

I was forced to buy another month of VMUSA service as I have no idea when I will get this phone so I guess at this point I am a little less antsy about it. Now my only worry is that it will come to my house while no one is home later this week. So I guess if it doesn't show up or I cannot pick it up before Wednesday morning, I'd rather just have it next week.
[Nexus 4 General] decepticon:
The latest conversation with the clueless call takers, she told me since my date changed it's now on backorder.

"The device sold out in a matter of minutes and you were behind others who placed before you"

When I told her to look at my order time and then explain why others who ordered hours after me already have theirs she hung up.
[Nexus 4 General] itznfb:
I didn't mean you should have been updating it this whole time..... no one would be able to follow this insanity. Every hundred posts or so some relevant pops up and then gets immediately buried.
[Nexus 4 General] djsaad1:
I am in limbo, no BO email or shipping email. My date updated to the 19th today but status still says complete. Hoping it will get shipped out today.

[Nexus 4 General] wngmv:
Ouch. 8gb in limbo....OTOH, my order has bummed to 19th with the others. I see the mass bump as a sign of processing.Maybe the final had their cup of coffee and started to do something. I would be happy as long as they ship them today, as late as tomorrow do it would be served before thanksgiving.
[Nexus 4 General] seltheair:
ordered 11/13 8:35am EST

no confirmation email

called in and confirmed order

Wallet: pending

Play Store: nov 13th, est ship 11/15

no BOE

over the weekend, Play Store order date changed to 17th and then 19th, all else remained.

called in just now and was informed that I am on backorder.

never got one email from google, yet two reps confirmed my order and it not being on BO

boo.
[Nexus 4 General] mchimney:
You all added levels to limbo so in lost on that.

My 8gb is still in limbo, no. Bo. No shipping. The date did change to the 15th though
[Nexus 4 General] nyijedi:
Google responded to an email I sent them a few days ago with that cookie cutter LIE to "rest assured" that orders are being shipped in the order they're received. My response, calling them out for this lie, is below:

How's the GPS lock on the N4.. The s3 has me amazed compared to my S2 which almost never got a lock, that and Sprints useless network made navigation impossible.
[Nexus 4 General] otariq:
Mine was just moved to the 19th as well and all weekend it remained at 13. Wonder if this is good or bad also has anyone checked to see if the charge on their card has come back. Mine was pending but dropped off a few days ago
[Nexus 4 General] biggiephat:
My charge never left off my amex. Both my old n7 order and my n4 order are now 11/19
[Nexus 4 General] mayurolla:
9:15 CST and still no updates....
[Nexus 4 General] lyricez:
It varies bank to bank. Some let the pre-authorization hold longer than others. Some are a short as 72 hours.
[Nexus 4 General] megapixle:
Limbo 2, checking in. Conf. email received, nothing else has changed.

What's everybody's prediction for today? Mine: a smattering of folks get a shipping confirmation, but the majority of limboers remain in limbo hell. Many will call customer service; great and wonderful things will be promised to happen tomorrow.
[Nexus 4 General] MauriceZ:
I´m guessing this is bad for us. I think they are handling others that havent got new dates first. This is my theory though. :(
[Nexus 4 General] nibrwr:
Very fast lock
[Nexus 4 General] mchimney:
Thanks, that kinda has a sad and depressing ring to it
[Nexus 4 General] pongalong:
No update. Ordered on 13th 8:35AM PST, no estimated ship date, no credit card charge.

I'm wondering how many people will see new dates if the refresh their browser.
[Nexus 4 General] walstadm:
First post, been loving this thread - extremely funny people on here.

Anyways, I'm in limbo lvl 2, no updates anywhere since confirmation email, cc still shows pending charge.
[Nexus 4 General] dkotoric:
The fact that your old N7 also shows 11/19 makes me think this date change means nothing.
[Nexus 4 General] aSquard:
Order date changed from 13th -> 17th -> 19th

Back Order Email received: 11.15.2012

Google Wallet: Pending (No money taken from my account)

Play Store: Shipping estimate: November 15, 2012

Like hfuizo said, I assume that a few people will get updates and tracking numbers today (hopefully) - I'd like to be one of them
[Nexus 4 General] James BlackHeron:
I think that the UPS warehouse contractor these are shipping out through is as much as a "black-box" to the Google folks as it is to us. They don't have a clue what is going on in there other than maybe a few unofficial reports between the UPS contractor and Google higher-ups that "they are working on it." There are no specifics. Google knows how many phones they sent to the warehouse and how many order manifests and THAT IS IT.

The only info Google gets is when any particular order is shipped and they get a notice of that from the contractor/UPS -then it is time to put the charge through for it to the bank. That's all the info they will get about your order so calling a Google CSR is like shaking a magic 8-ball for an answer. Don't bother.

Hopefully Google will set up a different operation next time for shipping and they learned their lesson not to hand off their shipping to a 3rd-party that they have no control over once they pull the trigger.
[Nexus 4 General] UCFJake:

[Nexus 4 General] Jackasaur:
Well, my date changed. Not sure if it is a good thing.
[Nexus 4 General] pongalong:
Out of curiosity, is there a way to see how many unique users are on this thread? How many of us on XDA are actually complaining about this?
[Nexus 4 General] ATnTdude:
This is the best theory I've read on here, by far. They're probably reconstructing the orders from the servers that didn't collapse and re-adding them to the queue as they go.

So I signed up for UPS my choice last week and just now I got an email alert on my phone from UPS Communications. Got SO excited then realized it was just a notice about shipping rate changes for 2013. Darrrrr!!
[Nexus 4 General] wngmv:
You would think that with that kind of call volume and angry callers Google would have given the CSRs some info. I'm sure the CSRs are just almost as angry to Google as we are.nobody likes being yelled at for things they didn't do wrong.

If Google is releasing any kind of info, is better be something substantial and not just "we are working on it to deliver as soon as possible" bull****. Taking about enraging your fan base.

I don't know if any guys here play Mass Effect, but I'm comparison Bioware handled their fan outcry much better. I can't believe I'm saying this.
[Nexus 4 General] Novi84:
Still rocking 13th here!! It's either really good, or really bad. In a logical world, no update means nothing is happening with the order. But in the world of "Google shows that smart engineers can't do logistics" ANYTHING is possible. I almost expect Larry Page to show up with my phone at this point.
[Nexus 4 General] fodawim:
Yeah! Fun fact, My nexus 7 shipping email arrived at 12:03 est, so there appears to be some variation outside of 12.

More ridiculous info from CSRs:

"Thank you for contacting us. I apologize for the delay with getting you the information which you have asked for. I do see where you changed your wallet on the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth. Due to the changes in your Wallet it has placed your Nexus 4 on backorder. It could take up to three weeks to get you your device."

I have not touched my wallet since I placed my order on the 13th.
[Nexus 4 General] Hawkeye9723:
Still in Limbo. Order date still shows the 13th, est. ship date is the 15th. No BO email, no tracking number, pending charge on my card have expired. Called CSR on Saturday, was told the shipping dept. dosen't work weekends.

[Nexus 4 General] robg2008:
yes but they DO delivery air items.

so if our phones are picked up tuesday with 2nd day air (which is what they are shipped with) they will be delivered on friday.
[Nexus 4 General] Acuity:
I got updated from the 13th to the 19th today but never got a BO e-mail. It would make sense for BO'd people to have their dates updated though. This way when it goes to processing, they ship by the date placed. Fail, fail, fail.
[Nexus 4 General] zizo79:
Mine is still unchanged...maybe I am not backordered lol

Losing Patience

New to this thread and in limbo like everyone else

Ordered a 16gb N4 on the 13th at 10:47 CST (8:47 PST)

Got confirmation email like 30 minutes later

No other communication

Oder Date/Update change from the 13 to the 17th and now the 19th. (Dont understand this at all)

Got a guy less than a mile away who wants to sell an 8 gig for 450 (Apparently he accidentally ordered two), trying to get him down to 400 (He would still make a 60 buck profit). Greedy f***** people. If it was an accident, you would think he would only be concerned about getting his money back...but oh no, not in america, not in this world LOL. Hell, I always sell my electronics at their market value or less, everyone is always trying to take advantage of people and their unfortunate situations...f******* sharks :crying:. He'll probably see this thread and wont agree to the 400 LOL.

GO Bears!!!!
