Read the thread, this kind of question has already been discussed to death.

Just in case people have not seen this thread, I attach http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=36552448

Sent the basis of the thread seems good but let's keep discussion of it in the other thread. Fingers crossed, the theory that production is increasing to 20k a day is a good one :beer:
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
Production rate looks very promising..... finally some good news.

I don't mind waiting patiently now.....

I'll be back on the 23rd or if I see any progress on my account.

5 weeks ended last Tuesday.

There's no way to make weeks have less than 7 days!
[Nexus 4 General] spookykidmt:
i really don't know how to get my hands on this phone. i m stuck on a nokia after selling my desire hd and thought one day soon it will be in stock. a month passed and still.

the ones on ebay are expensive as hell. if someone is willing to help me get this phone please pm and i'll be very grateful. cheers
[Nexus 4 General] CurtisD88:
I thought I'd wait for my Nexus to arrive before I sell my Desire HD. So I'm using it until it arrives.
[Nexus 4 General] Gryx:
Order at mm Germany and use mailboxde.com to send it to the uk. This will cost you totally 415-420 euro.
[Nexus 4 General] spookykidmt:
thats the same as from ebay :(
[Nexus 4 General] Pompi_HU:
I had a mail from the support about that the end of the 5th week was yesterday. I made the order 4th of December (with confirmation mail ofcourse), but Google accepted it only 2 days after on 6th od December. I think that's why the end of the 5th week was yesterday and not Tuesday.
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
That is correct - 5 weeks + 2 days for shipping = Yesterday
[Nexus 4 General] thl1988:
My friends, I'm afraid I have betrayed The Brotherhood of Waiting and just bought myself a Nexus 4 16GB. I saw one for sale on Gumtree for £310 sealed in its box, with a receipt, and I went for it.

Spoke to the guy this afternoon, collected it this evening. Now, the question is whether to cancel my order or let it arrive and sell it when it does?
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
Good for you m8 - and why not at that price :good:

**Nexus 4 gets update to 4.2.2**

Some users are reporting that their new N4 has been delivered with an update to 4.2.2

[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
I read this. Amazing, news, also what's your view on the news about lg stopping production ?

I think its fake rumour, someone fed up with no stock and pushing Google/lg for news.....
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
Agree - its a rumour. Only thing it may have come from is perhaps they made a small tweak which halted things for a couple of hours.

They would get crucified if they DID actually stop production - there'd be Nexus fans que-ing outside the factory with jerry cans and zippo's in hand :laugh:
[Nexus 4 General] nikzDHD:
Ahh my N4 has a stuck pixel and just developed a dead pixel on blacks! These American representatives are frustrating! Took them 10 attempts to get my email right they can't understand when I say Z got to say it the American way! ARGHHH. Zeeee for Zeeeebra.
[Nexus 4 General] ste1164:
Well I have gotten my hands on the note 2 for a bit so ill play with that for a while :D should distract me from my order.
[Nexus 4 General] mojo22:
I see some people ( was it just 1 person ? ) from dec.5 said their device is being shipped to them.

Nothing on mine yet, all the same since 2nd jan.
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
Yep one person who's date changed to the 10th, haven't heard anything from them recently
[Nexus 4 General] Audioboxer:
Do Google even have UK support staff? Each time I've called it's American!
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
That should keep your mind off the N4 :laugh: let us know what you think of it.
[Nexus 4 General] ste1164:
I quite like it so far. Still prefer LCD screens but the battery life is great. I have large hands so the size isn't too bad.
[Nexus 4 General] s2046:
Just got my Nexus 4 on contract from Three. Had an iPhone 3G for 4 years until now, so to say I am loving it is an understatement!

Glad to hear - what screen does that have then if not LCD ?

Don't Samsung use that amoled stuff
[Nexus 4 General] rhymer2k:
The way things are going If I don't get my phone by the 16th (estimated delivery date) I might seriously consider getting the nexus through this avenue. If 3 can give me an awesome retention deal that is. Waiting 6 weeks for something I ordered what seems like a lifetime ago is not something I wish my worst enemy
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
I've been thinking about this also as I'm in my 31 day upgrade window atm. Only thing that leaves me doubting is that during the last 6 months 3 have put up their prices quite substantially - the S3 is now more expensive than when it first came out.

Another thing is that they no longer do retention deals [this is official straight from their blog] as they claim that they don't need to due to prices being so low. I've no doubt that you will go down the same route as I will - phone them up with an enquiry about how to officially end the contract as you only have xx days left - this is when they try to persuade you otherwise but stand your ground and eventually they put you through to Retentions and good luck ! ;)
[Nexus 4 General] eagleeyetom:
Thread cleaned a bit.

Cheers!
[Nexus 4 General] CobalticBlue:
Could this be it?

I set up an alert on my credit card for any purchase over £200... just received a notification! Nothing showing as pending on the card yet but could this be it?!!

Ordered 6th Dec 5-6 weeks
[Nexus 4 General] ste1164:
They use amoled.
[Nexus 4 General] CobalticBlue:
Looks like a false alarm, still nothing pending on my credit card :(
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
Guys - am currently waiting/debating in town center whether to go & buy the N4 at full price ?

I came with the full intention of getting it but stopped to take shelter from rain cos something just didn't 'feel' right.

I feel like I would be robbing myself of a ton, & defeating the whole point of the nexus :eek:

Also I 'just know' that if I walk in there now & get it - that within a week it would be just my luck that it will go on sale again in the PS :rolleyes:

Gonna go get a coffee from Mc D's & decide - the drama this phone has caused !

[Nexus 4 General] Nova163:
I think they're using this time that no one has received any of their orders to ship them all at once like they did in the US. That way they prevent any more bull**** like people receiving their phones in the wrong order. Judging from the production rate they'll probably ship all orders in the next two weeks. After that it'll probably come back up for sale.
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
Yep I think so too

Looking at the production list it looked like they are producing about 6,000 for UK play store but that's my guess
[Nexus 4 General] Masoonic:
Got this reply from google yesterday:

"Thank you for contacting Google Play. I can definitely understand wanting to know the status of your order. I will do my best to answer your question for you today.

I have heard back from our shipping department in regards to your order. We are currently waiting for more devices to come in stock so that we can ship your order out. Once your order has been completed, you will receive an email containing your tracking information."

Not much to go on :(
[Nexus 4 General] druggeduk:
What's this production list people are talking about?
[Nexus 4 General] daffyduck2602:
It's in the General Thread, just look for it, it's not hard
[Nexus 4 General] cooljonL:
So this was fun. My girlfriend need a new contract as I mentioned previously so we went for the O2 deal and paid for sat delivery. Well last night I was talking to them as I'd had no tracking number and I was told it would dispatch in 1 to 2 days. I probed further and was told they had no stock. This p'd me off as the sales rep before assured me that they did have stock. So I went back and spoke to a different sales rep who then told me there was stock. I quizzed them as to why I was told I have to wait when I paid for a sat delivery and they transfered me to someone else who said I will get my phone in time.

Needless to say, nothing turned up. So I strolled in to a local o2 store who said they weren't able to deal with web orders as they were a franchise. He did say that I could call and cancel though and he would set us up on a new contract and he had loads in stock. So we did that, got 50 quid off and now I'm a proud owner of a nexus 4!

It was worth it! Its so silky smooth. Everything about it is so fluid. The screen is amazing and its so light compared to my iBrick. Hang in there people, its worth the wait.
[Nexus 4 General] daffyduck2602:
Traitor ;)

I ended up looking at deals in O2 and Three - both had stock in branch but thought I may as well just got wait another 2 weeks and hope things turn up.
[Nexus 4 General] cooljonL:
It made sense for us. Gf needed a new contract. I've given her the money I'd be paying for the phone from Google and got it weeks earlier, plus she's only paying less then 5 quid a month for a good contract. I'd advise anyone going the o2 route to go in to a store and mention the 50 quid cash back on quidico, they might have a deal for you like they did us. Franchise stores are better.
[Nexus 4 General] Acritter:
Just thought I'd pop back in here to mention that I did receive my phone yesterday!

It's a great phone and for someone who's never before had a smartphone of any sort, it's bloody mind blowing!

What I will add is that my phone isn't part of any new batch judging by the serial number. It's a rev10 and I believe rev11 is now being distributed.

It was in brand new packaging etc. so definitely not a returned device or anything. I really don't understand why I got it separately from everyone else?
[Nexus 4 General] hhd7247:
sounds like the CS also have no clue but they have to say something just to reply us
[Nexus 4 General] capt_carl:
Congrats and enjoy it. It might not have been recieved seperately to everyone else, there's estimated to be about 30 active posters on here still waiting. You may have recieved yours yesterday with hundreds of others that have never been on this site.

Its impossible to know how many are being recieved daily. Anyway like i said enjoy it hope mine comes soon.
[Nexus 4 General] mojo22:
Just a reminder to the 5th Dec. 5-6 week orders.

The 6th week will be up by this Wednesday ( 16th ) so we will be able to claim back the postage charge.
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
a poster replied on the HUKD website, he contact google and got this reply.....

"I was given 4-5 weeks time which ended on 8th. the reply from google support

Thank you for contacting Google concerning the shipment of your Nexus 4. I understand your concern and why this is important to you. I have heard back from the specialist "advise customer to wait another week since LG is having a manufacturing stall, We will refund the shipping charge once he receives it."

hmm stall but not stop......
[Nexus 4 General] coloxim:
i've order it 7th december......nothing moves...
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Yeah they have got until Wednesday evening to ship, if not I'm kicking up a storm.
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Yeah tell me about it..... Not a happy bunny.
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
Well on the other thread they have hit 577k devices......

Also looks like a lot of UK devices...,
[Nexus 4 General] mojo22:
Whats a AUKGBK device?

I don't see the 577k mark anywhere in the quote?

I hope ours don't have any problems, not really in a rush for the latest OS build, that will come but hardware won't fix itself.

So we're looking at Tuesday again....hope that's the day.

Anyone have a Google Order number appear in their Wallet? ( along with the order number )
[Nexus 4 General] daffyduck2602:
3rd line down for the 577k bit.

AUKGBK - just referencing, but it's UK build for Play I think (not carrier stock), Korean made.

(edit. Can't find the exact breakdown of the code, will try and find it in the middle, unless someone else does.)
[Nexus 4 General] toori88:
Just seen it. Could this mean we are almost in business...
[Nexus 4 General] aindow:
I've still not had my shipping refund despite having the phone almost a month.
[Nexus 4 General] mojo22:
seen what?
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
Someone posted a spreadsheet. The end is good, so many UK production devices.
[Nexus 4 General] toori88:
In the google wallet menu, I saw an extra order number, something like google order number which I'm sure wasn't there before.
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Fancy posting a screenshot of this?

Look below, just logged onto my Google Play account and it seems to have forgotten all my recent orders :/ according to them last one placed was last June!! What is going on...

EDIT:

False alert, turns out i was on my girlfriends play account!! ... Reason why i shouldnt let her use my laptop :P
[Nexus 4 General] toori88:
It's not showing on the desktop browser, but I definitely saw it on the Nexus 7 browser. Will post a screenshot when I'm on the Nexus this evening.
[Nexus 4 General] Rusty!:
I didn't ever speak to CS (as I had no reason to), and the shipping refund still turned up. I guess it's automatic.
[Nexus 4 General] enomis27:
People who ordered the N4 on 5th december, any news?
[Nexus 4 General] toori88:
Something else to hold up the delivery...bloody snow!
[Nexus 4 General] siwilkins:
That's a good sign - it's a weather anomaly whose root cause is hell freezing over in advance of Google shipping our handsets.
[Nexus 4 General] daveshorty:
No news for me (5th Dec order)
[Nexus 4 General] markad1:
ordered 5th, google play shows 6th (5-6 week)....no change here either :rolleyes:
[Nexus 4 General] Tones1971:
exactly the same here
[Nexus 4 General] kac.:
Snap, no movement.
[Nexus 4 General] coloxim:
same here...
[Nexus 4 General] daveshorty:
So all us 5th/6th Dec folks are supposed to be shipping by this Wed/Thur yeah?
[Nexus 4 General] capt_carl:
Interestingly I'm a 5th December order 19:35 UTC. I've just got onto the google wallet on my phone web browser and I also seem to have an additional google order number .

I'm sure it wasn't there either.

This Motorola Milestone is crap! Driving me up the wall! I can't take a screen shot so I've taken a photo with a blackberry and edited it out but you can see where the new number is.

edit: Just to be clear I have the original Order number which is a longnumber a full stop then another long number

On the line below I have a different number completely.

[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
No movement here, order in signature. Play store still showing the 2nd.

What is the web address for the mobile version of the wallet, mine just shows desktop view?
[Nexus 4 General] capt_carl:
I can only get to it on my phone. I just went to the play store web page, Orders and settings top right. clicked on the info button on my order and it takes me into it.

[Nexus 4 General] j0ff:
16GB ordered on Dec 6th, changed in Play on 2nd, nothing since. I'm a 6-7 weeker so still got til Wednesday next week.
[Nexus 4 General] toori88:
Yeah, that's exactly what I had, hope it means something is happening!
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Whenever i go to the play store website on my phone it just brings up the desktop version :/ hmmmmmmmmm
[Nexus 4 General] lawrences:
Just checked, saw a 'google order' number below the original long number on the mobile wallet site. Some1-2weekers mentioned this before in this thread. Seems a good sign.
[Nexus 4 General] polipetto:
these good signs are too slow to happen...only 1 or 2 in the last month!!!
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Can you post the link to the mobile wallet site please? im having trouble accessing it!! :D
[Nexus 4 General] vukis:
You are right. 1-2 weeker noticed this ON DEC 8 but he recieved shipping mail only on DEC 19 :(

What browser are you using? does it have a desktop/mobile display option like Dolphin does?
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Well first off i tried the stock browser, no luck took me to the desktop version, then i tried using Opera with mobile version checked, and it still took me to desktop version :/
[Nexus 4 General] GretaLewd:
Sorry to say, but I've had google order number (the one below the long number with a . in the middle) for quite a while...perhaps since I placed my order on the 5th Dec. I think seeing it just depends on which browser / device you use.

Ordered 5th Dec, Pending, no changes to dates at all. 5-6 weeks, should ship by 16th Jan (this Wed.) :(
[Nexus 4 General] lawrences:
I got the link through the information button of the n4 order on google play and it linked to checkout.google.com/m

btw I use opera mobile explorer.
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Ah finally! I can too confirm that i have the Google Order No. below my Google Commerce Ltd Order No.

Cannot say whether that was there before or not though.
[Nexus 4 General] lawrences:
:( my n4 case and f5 key are extremely disappointed. The life long waiting journey continues.
[Nexus 4 General] Pompi_HU:
Is there anybody apart from me who stuck on the original order date? (6th of December in my case) My order date isn't changed to 2nd of January. Is it mean something wrong? :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
My case isnt even here yet :/ grr!! what one have you got?

Also, when is that fricken Orb going on sale!!!!!! GRRRR
[Nexus 4 General] CalumL:
Ditto.

I checked when it was mentioned back in this thread and mine displayed the second part of the Order no. At the time I was still showing 10th Dec, now showing 2nd Jan but with no changes to the order number.

As others have said, depends on the browser as to whether it's displayed or not.
[Nexus 4 General] lanky78:
Mine was a bit later (8th) but I have no change on mine yet, even though I believe as late as the 12th have seen the date change. :confused:

Looks like Google are stockpiling to get all the orders out in one go to avoid more 'people are getting theirs when they ordered after me' type complaints.

I guess that is because they

a, Keep getting calls to this effect (even though I suspect some of these were from people who were still within estimated dates!)

b, don't 'really' know who ordered in what order so may be delivering en masse once they have enogh to cover all preorders.
[Nexus 4 General] teox_:
I have the same! In my order there is the original date: 9 Dec.

I don't know what it means :(
[Nexus 4 General] polipetto:
it's the same for me, still the original date: 9 Dec
[Nexus 4 General] teox_:
I got this in my wallet since 2-3 weeks, as you see there is the order number, I don't think it means anything however
[Nexus 4 General] Popple3:
Is there anyone here who ordered on Dec 4th with a 4-5 week shipping estimate who haven't received their phone yet?

I'm nearly a week over the estimate and all Google Play Support can tell me is:

I'll monitor this thread closely to see if others have their devices shipped who ordered after me.
[Nexus 4 General] siwilkins:
I like the way that the specialist sends a reply back to the CSR with some cues for them, along the lines of "apply some customer service magic"; "be thankful to the customer"; "express understanding".

The CSR gets that and reads "forward specialist's response to customer".
[Nexus 4 General] Pompi_HU:
I'm in the same situation. Ordered 4th of December and still nothing. Some orders made on 5th of December shipped already.

Last week the support wrote me about an other 3 week period... but as I can see they don't know anything, just some usual crap.
[Nexus 4 General] blizard80:
Me:

4 DEC 17.31h (4-5 weeks) - Not received
[Nexus 4 General] siwilkins:
A friend of mine ordered on 5th or 6th (sorry, can't remember which) with 5-6 week estimate and received his on 28th. I've come to the conclusion that the order dates and estimates are largely ignored by google.
[Nexus 4 General] m4r0v3r:
i had enough of waiting so I just bought one from carphone warehouse, am selling my old N9 which will bring the price down to what Google Play was, win-win

Well, apart from it not bringing the price down to what it would have been if you'd got it through the Play store and sold your N9.
[Nexus 4 General] yoonder84:
I ordered on dec 4th with 1-2 week shipping but there was some problems with my wallet. They re-authorized it on 21th and told me the 1-2 week starts again from that date. So my phone should have arrived on jan 4th
[Nexus 4 General] Fissurez:
i just had a fantastic conversation with google play support regarding my order (4-5 weeks, 4th december)

apparently they are completely out of stock, and they have no idea when a next batch will ship ("maybe next month")

they guy i spoke to also seemed to think that they don't have any idea why these devices didn't ship before other devices that were ordered afterwards, and that the system for ordering was, and i quote "Completely random"

This is ridiculous.
[Nexus 4 General] siwilkins:
This is both depressing, but also not without a vague hope. I think its probably mostly true, but the "maybe next month" bit isn't necessarily to be taken at completely face value. Every time I have spoken to someone they have been in America and they haven't had any detailed information. I am pretty certain that all they have to go on is the individual Play account details that they look up when you are on the phone to them, and therefore no access to any general information about what is being shipped, what stock is arriving for different countries etc. I suspect that the "next month" was just a complete stab in the dark. Hopefully it will be sooner - it really ought to be.
[Nexus 4 General] rhymer2k:
Is it possible that there has been some sort of disagreement between Google and LG over the phone's price and LG has simply refused to supply any more. Sounds far-fetched but could be embarrassing for Google if even remotely true.

Anyway, my 6 weeks is up in 2 days. Please send me my phone, I think I have paid my dues.
[Nexus 4 General] adamw:
I guess there's an agreed price in whatever contract they have, so this sounds unlikely.

I'm sure though that the reason we haven't seen 1-2m+ of these devices shipping in an apple / Samsung type launch is not because they couldn't raise enough demand at that price, more likely they don't want to completely alienate all networks and hardware manufacturers. Even if they don't compete directly with them, I'm sure that those guys are big customers of google (adverts, etc).

EDIT: none of the above explains the shambolic launch though, and why they couldn't get a simple ordering process right!

Anyway, where's my phone, the wait is killing me! (still not reached my 6-7 week estimate though, so got to be patient :D )
[Nexus 4 General] scandalousk:
I doubt it. Contracts have been signed, and LG knew what they were getting into. They can't just back out of it because they started to disagree, all of a sudden.
[Nexus 4 General] Tones1971:
