I think you have to be careful and make sure you use a reputable one. I have sold 7 phones to mobile recyclers and had good experiences on all occasions. If there is a 10-20 quid difference from selling it on ebay or whatever and selling to a mobile recycling company, i would go with the later myself. Then again I once had a bad experience selling a phone on ebay where someone claimed it was faulty when they received it, pretty much put me off for life lol.

Just sold my s3 through amazon really pleased. Much easier than ebay, not too much charged and it sold in an hour
[Nexus 4 General] kaiowas82:
What I always done with cex is buying a phone locked on 3, then I unlock it, so when I resell it, as unlocked to cex, I can scratch few tenner more :p

Obviously they don't do an imei check when they test it, neither a "root check" , I don't know how they work with official warranties
[Nexus 4 General] Higgsy:
I was going to put my note on amazon, but didn't fancy waiting for 2-3 weeks for my monies.

[Nexus 4 General] Techno79:
I think this is a really great post to help educate those who are fixated on free phones and then pay through the nose for over priced contracts. The mobile phone companies have been milking consumers financially for too long. I really started to hate carriers when they started to move away from 12 month contracts and on to 18m and 24m contracts. For my last few phones, I have often gotten the phone I wanted separate from my contract simply because it works out around the same or a little cheaper and because I can upgrade my phone independently of my contract expiry.

Google and LG have really put out a game changer with such a low price for a top end phone. They've set the bar and aimed to show consumers that top end phones don't have to be that expensive (like the carriers try to make you believe).

My Samsung Galaxy S2 is still running brilliantly but I have long wanted a Pure Google Experience phone. This is the first Nexus phone that seems to have hardware that will give it some proper shelf life. I reckon the hardware potential in this phone will be able to run next 2 year's worth of Android OS updates without a breeze.
[Nexus 4 General] spences10:
but... but... but... you obviously don't have anything better to do than troll this thread?
[Nexus 4 General] sungrad:
i missed the tnt guy! they said 3pm when I rang, and he came at 2!! noooooooooo!

oh well, they're good at customer services and are gonna call the driver back round for me. good times :)
[Nexus 4 General] Barguast:
Settle down, people just want to be informed. That's the main purpose of this thread since we're being kept somewhat in the dark at the moment.
[Nexus 4 General] MizuhoChan:
Anyone have the number for TNT? I feel like asking if anything is coming. I know it'll be here somewhere, but I'm not sure where.

Edit: Aha, found it. "0800100600", option 2.
[Nexus 4 General] TheFluffyOne:
I agree, people do want to be informed. Unfortunately 99% of the posts in this thread are people whining because they're impatient. That's hardly helping the flow of information. Useful information includes updates where something has actually happened: a dispatch message, a package arriving, information from a source that can be trusted. Have a scan through the last 30 pages here and see how many posts actually help to inform, and how many are moaning about having to wait a few days for a new toy. Personally I think savo83 had a point.
[Nexus 4 General] Barguast:
Perhaps, but he certainly didn't communicate it well. Personally I've found this topic to be quite helpful and have tried to be helpful in return. I think what you're seeing is just enthusiasm met with frustration, and I can relate to that despite knowing full well that within a couple of hours of receiving the thing, it'll just return to its regular phone duties. :p
[Nexus 4 General] jofullalove:
TNT says phone delivered, cant wait to get home now and have a play... Hopefully the rest of the people still waiting will recieve theirs soon too.
[Nexus 4 General] CodeMonkey:
We could do with an official UK non play store sources thread and a separated Play Store orders thread really.
[Nexus 4 General] Higgsy:
Yeah ill sit there stroking it for a while and then the novelty will wear off :D

[Nexus 4 General] MizuhoChan:
Well... phoned up, nothing planned to deliver here today. I'll hope they post it tonight then I suppose. I'll stop clogging up the thread with my meaningless whining now. Good luck to everyone hoping to get it and have fun playing with it to everybody who got it =)

I'm off to B&Q now for some floorboards. Fun times.
[Nexus 4 General] B97:
Do TNT do weekends? I've heard different this from people and I wanted to make sure.
[Nexus 4 General] savo83:
I'm checking the thread to see if any IMPORTANT information has been provided to posters.

You are part of the problem. I feel sorry for the guys that haven't managed to get a phone and are having to listen to all this tripe.

All we're getting is the same crap about people phoning TNT (Honestly?) even though they haven't received any shipping info.

It's utterly pathetic.

---------- Post added at 05:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------

People do wan't to be informed. Myself included. It is just pissing me off having to filter through all the **** that others are posting.
[Nexus 4 General] OriginalBilly:
People are just eager to get their new toys.

I find it pathetic you are ruining this thread with post like that.
[Nexus 4 General] smileyanz:
Lol enthusiasm is plain to see , this is not enthusiasm this is throwing toys out the pram before they have received it. It so much like the fanboys queuing outside the applesaurus shops , I can just see the fanboys having a rite laugh . These are men or suppose to be, cuuuumm on. Strange coz there's hardly any ladies, is that saying something!!!!!
[Nexus 4 General] savo83:
Some of these people are "grown men".

That is worrying.

[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
Emailed Google about my order and bumper still being pending on Wallet.

Like 30 seconds after sending the question received this:

Have 0 trust in this information.

Let's wait for the evening and see...

Cheers!
[Nexus 4 General] Higgsy:
People are ringing tnt because some people have received their phone whith getting any shipping info. I called them as I had stuff to do aand didn't want to wait in unless I had to. I thank the first person who did this as it encouraged me to do it.

[Nexus 4 General] JeepoUK:
Yes they do weekends, but NOT for the 2 day shipping we paid for. That is confirmed from Google.
[Nexus 4 General] :
Mines arrived :)
[Nexus 4 General] savo83:
I has been a randon event for 2 people on here. I wouldn't hold your breath.
[Nexus 4 General] uberNoobZA:
Yes and I get a fax machine (in response to someone asking if we had tried to ring the Dublin number for Google)
[Nexus 4 General] Audioboxer:
Guys this is the internet, unless you're face to face with someone it can be hard to tell enthusiasm from an

actual

tantrum. No one's causing anyone any grievance in here so stop being so serious and let everyone be excited for the device and annoyed at Google (it is annoying) - Especially if you sold your phone to upgrade to this one.

As much as I do laugh at some people queuing for products days early, it's not really fair to categorize them all and tell them to act like grown men. We have to be serious enough in most of our day jobs, nothing wrong with a little overly exaggerated passion on a forum :good:

Nerds are excited about technology, 10 year old girls squeal at Justin Bieber, deal with it.gif :P
[Nexus 4 General] spences10:
Welcome to XDA :D
[Nexus 4 General] uberNoobZA:
What would you care about IMPORTANT information about orders, stats, delays, etc. if you have had one for a week? Rather go into the other forums and read up on accessories and development etc. (For one you would stress less).

Let the complainers complain while they wait (I am one of them) ad it helps them pass the time and to know they are not the only ones.
[Nexus 4 General] vizzy:
Is it true play have more stock tomorrow morning ?
[Nexus 4 General] t0ph0id:
It was rumoured they would have some more in 3 days. That points to tomorrow morning. I wouldn't hold your breath.
[Nexus 4 General] gbroon:
Wouldn't say true, its one of the rumours.
[Nexus 4 General] fleonard:
the only answer we have from google is it will restock in the coming weeks
[Nexus 4 General] undercover:
I say another week at least. It is possible they will open it up with cancellations, wrong orders, but seems unlikely. They have to sort out shipping burden first.
[Nexus 4 General] Joey-UK:
My N4 16gb is hopefully arriving tomorrow so,

What are my options for getting a micro sim from t-mobile, and do i have to pay for one?
[Nexus 4 General] meanwhile:
just got mine. spoke with driver a bit, he said it is a lot, like massive amount of those coming through. they started delivering them yesterday and he said its around 100 in truck, half of the owners not at home. mind you im south east uk. southend on sea.
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
I'll also be putting this in the OP.
[Nexus 4 General] t0ph0id:
Either cut it yourself or go into the T-Mobile store and ask for one, they should be able to transfer your number straight away.

You shouldn't have to pay for it.
[Nexus 4 General] italia0101:
Yey my Nexus 10 just arrived!
[Nexus 4 General] StuMcBill:
They charged me £10!
[Nexus 4 General] PWF:
They charge £10!
[Nexus 4 General] CodeMonkey:
Thanks mate.

I'll be trying at least 2 CPWs tomorrow (1 large in person, 1 small local by phone) and will post with any info I get.
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
Not 100% on what T-Mobile's method is, but Three cut it down there and then in-store for nothing. They MIGHT do the same, or they'll transfer it onto a new SIM and possible charge. :S
[Nexus 4 General] sungrad:
In finally got it :)
[Nexus 4 General] Joey-UK:
Anyone know how easy is it to cut it to size?
[Nexus 4 General] rickykemp:
awww man... that makes it even worse for me :( I live near Lakeside, and haven't even had my payment taken yet, If only one of those on that truck was mine :'(
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
Next time I see a TNT truck in Southampton I'm going to hijack it.
[Nexus 4 General] roughavoc:
Oh hello there, me again, still Nexus 4less ):

Still pending on Wallet, estimated 15th. ordered 08:32..

Very easy, google is your friend (huehuehue)
[Nexus 4 General] savo83:
The device is in my work. I'm off work with a broken leg. I've also ordered another that I'm.waiting on. Happy?
[Nexus 4 General] will444:
At this rate I'm going to get a sim free from cpw, never thought I'd say that
[Nexus 4 General] CodeMonkey:
I'm going for the first sim free available (outside eBay or O2) provided the price isn't stupid. I'm at the point that I'd rather pay the extra to avoid the hassle of waiting, another shoddy 30 minute sale and then the aftermath of delivery.

I'd prefer walk in, pay money + take phone, and walk out at this point.

On the plus side I got to have a play with one in O2 - seems pretty decent build quality
[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
Of the new deliveries today, anyone received a bumper yet?

Or is the bumper still like big foot at this time?

Cheers
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
I'm with you guys on this, but the £350 price tag isn't all that enticing. :P
[Nexus 4 General] redmongoose:
I called them last week and they wanted to charge me £10.

I told them that was a joke and then told them I wanted to give my 30 days notice (I am sim only). Magically the sim was suddenly free. This was at 09.30 on a Thursday and the sim was with me 09.00 Saturday morning.
[Nexus 4 General] spences10:
Make sure this doesn't happen to you when you're doing your unboxing video :crying:

[Nexus 4 General] antonusklesk:
Second post in this thread has someone from Aus claiming they've received a bumper, although that's the only one I can find having shipped, let alone delivered.

[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
At what time can we expect today's batch of deliveries to start going? Around 6 pm?

Cheers
[Nexus 4 General] MizuhoChan:
Last night, it seemed to start around 8 to 9pm. I think the earliest I saw myself was 9pm though, so I'd start there.
[Nexus 4 General] smileyanz:
Lol if you all want some excitement like some fool had just mentioned come join the army. Lol if a bomb dropped on your house giggles I think you would be looking for your phone and not priority . PROOF IN THE PUDDING AS MY SARGE WOULD SAY. CHEW ON A JELLY BEAN AND CHILL !!!!!
[Nexus 4 General] Joey-UK:
That's such a fake video, the screen goes black and its not even the nexus 4 in the mug.

Just some idiot trying to get youtube views
[Nexus 4 General] Publicglutton:
Yep...it's the Galaxy S2...if you look carefully just before he reaches to pull it out you can see the home button....:silly:
[Nexus 4 General] jelli:
I read the comments whilst waiting for the inevitable and it was still painful to watch. Words of advice people, leave unboxing videos to the professionals :p

Edit - Looks like we have been tricked.
[Nexus 4 General] B97:
Called TNT, they said I need a consignment code, how did you guys fund out about your delivery from them without shipping information? I told them my post code
[Nexus 4 General] MizuhoChan:
The guy I phoned was very helpful. He told me if there were any deliveries scheduled to my post code, which there weren't. He also told me that if it was picked up in the last hour, or was scheduled to be picked up, it wouldn't show up on his information, so he recommended I phone where I bought the phone. Which isn't too helpful, but he didn't know it was Google.
[Nexus 4 General] Joey-UK:
Have you seen the Nexus 4 16gb on ebay, that has just over 4 hours remaining, its already up to £509:mad:. What a joke!!
[Nexus 4 General] MizuhoChan:
Some people have more money than sense.
[Nexus 4 General] t0ph0id:
And only £399 from O2, idiots.
[Nexus 4 General] culac:
It may not be real. When I was trying to sell my One X some low life bid £460 and then closed their ebay account after the auction ended, effectively blocking the sale. I wasn't allowed to offer second chance to the next bidder straight away, and have now had to re-list it. :mad:
[Nexus 4 General] Barguast:
Ha, I've seen this on eBay with all-sorts. For some reason people way over the odds for things on there - I think they just assume that they're always going to get a bargain because it's an auction. As you say, idiots.

Well, the evening approaches. I assume the next lot of tracking confirmations will be coming through this evening - does anyone recall what time they started coming through yesterday? I was a bit late to the party last night. :P
[Nexus 4 General] undercover:
Lol.

Someone said people have more money than sense. Let me rephrase it. People have less sense than money, even if they don't have money. I bet it goes on CC an all.
[Nexus 4 General] ScuzUK:
So I'm one of the "Pending" in google wallet with estimate 15 November 2012 in google play.

TNT has just passed my house with no phone for me.

Phoned google and the guy basically said that there system screwed up and mine hasn't gone through properly.
[Nexus 4 General] t0ph0id:
Just spoke with Phones 4 U, spoke with a manager. They're not currently stocking it, not sure if they're going to be either.
[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
I am in the same status.

What did they mean by hasn't gone through. How will they resolve the matter?
[Nexus 4 General] ScuzUK:
I have no idea. If you talk to them and hear some thing more concrete do send me a PM :)
[Nexus 4 General] xelin0:
Recieved mine earlier today (just before 9am to be precice) and absolutely love the f*** out of it. It feels exceptional, looks exceptional and performs..... exceptionally.

The only tiny niggles I can think of so far are I think the colours could be slightly more vibrant, they do not seem washed out, and the quality is amazing but I think they could be slightly improved on (iphone 5 springs to mind, say what you want about that phone and the price, but the screen, ignoring size, is stunning)

That and the navigation bar is oversized, could easily be 2/3 of what it is and still be perfectly comfortable to use, and give more area for the screen quality to truly shine.
[Nexus 4 General] dubsflyt:
just got mine, screen does seem a bit yellowish but its no worst than the nexus 7, its pretty acceptable, soooo smooth too
[Nexus 4 General] antonusklesk:
Everyone's says this that hasn't been shipped yet, what did they say, you'll have to order another one? What grounds did they give for there being an error?
[Nexus 4 General] SIDKIMA:
I ordered at 8:20:34 on tuesday and havent received shipment details now, more than 48 hrs later. Delivery estimate still on 15th and pending in the wallet. Money reserved in the bank.

I called google and apparently they've sent out my device to tnt and its upto tnt now.

Ive got to say, even though i dont beleive what google say anymore I do feel much better.

I'll call tnt again in a bit.

Sent from my mind to yours.
[Nexus 4 General] losimagic:
The manager in my local Phones4U didn't even believe that there was a 'Nexus 4' phone, thought I was making it up, lol
[Nexus 4 General] Mobiwan:
FYI -

Received order -

google wallet still says pending and no payment taken from the my bank yet either.
[Nexus 4 General] ScuzUK:
The guy just sounded exhausted to be honest. Very difficult to probe a person like that for answers.

He said it had some thing to do with the volume of phones people purchased by hitting refresh on the play store.

It felt like he was saying although mine went through without a problem that some one else has ended up been allocated the same phone.

I would of very much liked my phone yesterday, today or in a week so I'm content to sit back and wait right now.
[Nexus 4 General] ronnieb555:
Could you give me the phone number that you rang? I am still pending, mine went through at 8:25am and still no shipping, although I did get an order confirmation email.
[Nexus 4 General] steviewevie:
Agreed. But bear in mind that there might be lots of people trying to buy from countries that don't have the phone yet.
[Nexus 4 General] ScuzUK:
0800 328 6081.

Same boat as me I did get a confirmation email :) PM me if you hear any thing concrete
[Nexus 4 General] Tibbz96:
That would probably be people outside of the countries where they are selling the Nexus 4. The RRP is set by LG there, and they plan on charging high prices.
[Nexus 4 General] antonusklesk:
Hopefully we're approaching the time people will be getting shipping confirmations for this evening (which should be all of us, but it won't be).

If people could post when they get one and whether the order is a single device, multiple devices or with the Bumper it'd be much appreciated.
[Nexus 4 General] Tibbz96:
I really really hope so. I would much prefer to get it tomorrow rather than Monday..
[Nexus 4 General] antonusklesk:
Likewise, tomorrow is a much easier day to be around for delivery, Monday would be a pain.
[Nexus 4 General] ronnieb555:
I gave the guy my order number and he said that my card has been charged (my online banking says otherwise) and then went on to say that it should be processed soon. I asked when it will be dispatched, his reply was that it will be dispatched when I receive the shipping email. The guy sounded a lot like the one you spoke to, he sounded sick of his life.
[Nexus 4 General] SIDKIMA:
I think once we've received our devices we should call and say thanks to the reps. Im sure its not their decision to tell us different stories.

[Nexus 4 General] Audioboxer:
Paranoid Android will cure that :victory:

Good luck tonight everyone, my page monitoring extension begins again now! :laugh:
[Nexus 4 General] roughavoc:
Just called up Googleh. Told me that I should be expecting an email from Google with something (he didnt tell me, I didnt ask either) in it either today or tomorrow

Another guy told me that due to the madness that happened it'll take 3-5 to get processed, this DOES NOT include shipping, so the worst it will be fully processed Monday and we should be able to get our devices Tuesday/Wednesday
[Nexus 4 General] savo83:
If it's not here by Tuesday then we can get our money back for delivery I believe. I'm hopeful we'll get shipping emails tonight and the device tomorrow though.
[Nexus 4 General] snowdej:
spoken to support

Hi

I just spoke to the folks on the 0800 number

They seemed to be having trouble checking order status themselves.

They told me that my order was "processing" and should be with TNT tomorrow and arrive early next week

I asked where they are despatched from and he was unsure but said he thinks they are in the UK somewhere

My order was timed at 8.27 -n4 16gb *no* bumper

Jools
[Nexus 4 General] phillevy:
I wonder what will happen to the "Delivery estimate: November 15" status if tonight passes with no dispatch email. I have this nightmare vision where we will all be put on "pre-order":crying::crying:

[Nexus 4 General] the803:
Just phoned the 0800 number asking them when the next restock for UK is. He said he can't give me a specific date but it can be between two weeks and a month.

He told me just to keep checking and it might appear in stock sometime soon.

[Nexus 4 General] Barguast:
GAH. It's that time again! :fingers-crossed:

Anyone who gets a shipping email, can you please say whether you got the email yesterday saying your order had been delayed due to multiple items (as I did)? Keep my hope alive. :)

I'm sure some other hopefuls would be grateful for some details of your order situation, also. Particularly if your order includes a bumper. Thanks!
[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
When you get the email, please say if you ordered the bumper together with the phone.

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 General] ScuzUK:
Still on Pending myself
[Nexus 4 General] B97:
Just called Google, they said a Nexus is coming my way but it is processing. I asked where it is and they said TNT have it. Earlier, TNT stated they have no order for me and when I told the Google rep this he said it's because they're still processing it. I asked if they're processing it now, if it's possible for me to recieve it by the end of tomorrow, he said very unlikely. He also said it's possible people will recieve them in 3 weeks. SO ANNOYED. :(
[Nexus 4 General] akhan47:
OK so here's my new status:

I ordered Nexus 4 16gb, the bumper and Nexus 10 32gb. All in separate orders.

Got an e-mail saying Nexus 10 has been shipped a few minutes ago. Nexus 10 on Google Wallet has gone from Pending to Completed and has changed from estimate to Shipped on the Play store.

Bumper says estimate on Play Store and Nexus 4 has always said Completed. Both are are still Pending on Wallet.
[Nexus 4 General] gdourado:
3 weeks... No way!

Let's hope for today. Or I may seriously consider canceling my order.
[Nexus 4 General] yinkus:

Order still pending as of a minute ago. Not a happy bunny. :mad:
