Don't give up, mine was shipped and nit a single clue was given by the playstore, wallet or bank account... The first sign of life was the tnt email with the tracking number. You will get one soon too ;)

R: UK thread - Contracts, news, information, etc.

My contact in the UK received my phone today!!! It'll be in my hands next Monday but the worst is gone!!! Thank you all guys!! Wish you all can enjoy your phones soon!! :D
[Nexus 4 General] mick90:
Its here!

Dec14th order

Money ring fenced Friday

Shipping email received yesterday

Attempted delivery twice today then left it with a neighbour,

Its solo smooth to touch BUT the screen looks washed out :(

DELiVErED !!!!
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
do you know what hardware version you have, need to boot into bootloader ?

vol - and power button.
[Nexus 4 General] tony2013:
all rooted now, went smoothly, needed root for nfc scanning to switch on airplane mode. my only real complaint through this whole thing is that my parcel had obviously been chucked about, the box is showing damage including one of the corner seams is split from top to bottom, fortunately the phone itself is mint, hopefully have tome tomorrow to have a full play, just finishing off copying my old bits and pieces over from my old phone, overall :good:
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
well i did the hard stuff, reflashed stock manually,

then flashed AOKP build-2, nearly fainted after seeing the customisation options....

---------- Post added at 08:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

do you have nfc tags then ?

how do you turn on airplane mode via NFC ?
[Nexus 4 General] CurtisD88:
AUKGBK 212K Rev11
[Nexus 4 General] tony2013:
Not exactly, I need some tags but for now I tested with my fob for works gates and coffee machine:p I'm just playing with nfc task launcher, seems pretty fully featured you just need root to activate airplane mode, im still in the test phase as once activated I can't reswipe to turn access back on, seems airplane mode turns off all receivers. I'll have to tinker with that one
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
Hmm

I was reading about them, they can be programmed for so much,

blogs say they cost pennies but the cheapest I've seen is 5 for 4 pounds lol
[Nexus 4 General] lanky78:
Search this thread for 'watchdog' someone posted a link to flag up the dubious CS as well as other issues. Seemed a bit OTT at the time but its mow getting to the point where people are getting orders cancelled without reason and CS are actively lying/contradicting each other.

Maybe this will encourage Google to fix their issues for next time.

Happy days i have now had a shipping email i ordered 5th december whats tnt like for delivering , question is i had email at 7pm what do you think turn around for delivery will be like given track record
[Nexus 4 General] lanky78:

hope it has
[Nexus 4 General] lowtje:
Haha
[Nexus 4 General] lanky78:
Not yet although I REALLY hope it does and a shipping email arrives today!!!! :fingers-crossed:

I got mine yesterday and all seems to work fine, except I couldn't see how to send an sms to multiple recipients from contacts. I had to list them manually in the to box! Still a quick install of handcent will fix that :)

Its been a rollercoaster, I just spent

the last hour

reading the last 2 days posts just to make sure all you guys have been getting your phones.

For you last few it should be sooner rather than later based on the last few days hang in there its worth it..

Got to check out the other threads, do I keep it stock, CM or try some thing new? Hmm

Lanky78 signing off, see you on the other side.............
[Nexus 4 General] ShutUpYouFace:
same here.. the feeling of constantly checking and not knowing what's going on while others are getting shipping emails isn't a nice feeling. Especially for something we have waited so long, it's a feeling I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy lol..

Hoping TNT delivers early tomorrow, the depot is like a 5 minute drive away
[Nexus 4 General] shahin67:
Got the Phone!! Finally!!

Yooohooo... :laugh:

Got the phone this morning at 8:50am 2012.

Here is a summary of what happened:

Ordered on 5th of Dec around 2:00pm GMT

Got my bank account charged at 18th of Jan 2013.

Received the tracking number on 21st of Jan 2013

The TNT tracking number got activated at 1:45am 22nd of Jan 2013

and finally received it at 8:50am 22nd of Jan. (yeaaayyy...)

Guys the phone is totally worth the waiting. It's just legend... wait for it...

It was really fun following up the thread with the everyone (stressful too)

cheeersss,

...darryy... Yeah baby legendaryyy :laugh:

P.S. I received an e-mail from Ben (one of Google's customer service dudes), about whether I've received the phone or not and if I have he could proceed with the refund of my shipping fee. Obviously e-mailed back confirming the delivery of the phone and after literally 2 mins I received an e-mail saying an amount of £9.99 for the shipping fee is being refunded to my card. The fact that customer service e-mailed me back without me contacting them again was a satisfactory experience I had at last.
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
Moonie this time yesterday I got my mail hope you have too

Off to bed
[Nexus 4 General] daffyduck2602:
Out for delivery today from Alton depot.

Bugger, got to go to office @ 9am latest, so may have to set phone up later.

Only other decision is to eBay SGS2 or Envirophone it :D
[Nexus 4 General] wolfboy1984:
Heads up!!

Both N10's back in stock NOW btw.

Finally bagged one. I'll have a look. If the speed don't impress me it will be going back and I'll wait for 2nd gen.

what an ordeal :rolleyes:
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Still nothing ifti :( and to top it off i dont have a pending charge anymore! Will call them at some point today for sure..

This is ridiculous.

Anyone in the same situation as me? Or am i a lone ranger?

---------- Post added at 08:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:47 AM ----------

Just popped this to them....
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
Best of luck m8 - lets hope the [I know you don't wanna hear this] fact that the charge is no longer pending isn't due to them cancelling your order.
[Nexus 4 General] :
The phone may have been shipped but no email?

Mine is out for delivery and my pending charge has disappeared, although in wallet it says it has been charged, nothing has been taken from my HSBC account.
[Nexus 4 General] chris3131:
In a further comedy Google mess-up, the TNT tracking number they gave me was too long, so wasn't working on their website. I spoke to TNT and gave them my postcode, and they've given me the REAL tracking number. They also say it's due to be delivered today! So close!!
[Nexus 4 General] theabsurdman:
i now have mine -- was delivered monday.

ordered on Dec 6th (6-7 weeks estimated)

i'm based in Worthing, W. Sussex. U.K.

very impressed with it (all except the battery life!).

[Nexus 4 General] ShutUpYouFace:
Got my nexus 4 today. Was delivered nice and early before 8am.

Some had mentioned a slightly loose volume rocker, mine is firm and secure. Screen is beautiful, no rattling and the back is still very sparkly.

Phone was only installed with android 4.2 and not 4.2.1 which I found a bit strange but whatever, I'm very pleased with it so far!

Good luck to everyone else that's still waiting!
[Nexus 4 General] chris3131:
So when I (hopefully) get my hands on it tonight, what are the first things I need to do - presumably update android?
[Nexus 4 General] ShutUpYouFace:
That's your comedy mess up. The number Google give is a reference number and not a consignment number. On TNT you can choose whether to track using reference number or consignment number.
[Nexus 4 General] chris3131:
Well maybe they should use something clearer than Track 'TNT package No.' to describe it then
[Nexus 4 General] daffyduck2602:
Great, TNT turned up, the wife was briefly upstairs with our daughter and despite all the tv turned on, lights on, rang the doorbell once if at all, and buggered off. 4x4 was parked on the drive as well.

They are going to come back only after my wife rang and complained.
[Nexus 4 General] @127.0.0.1:
Mine was delivered today, very happy. Just hope its not DOA. Stuck working away so cant get my hands on it till later this evening.
[Nexus 4 General] ShutUpYouFace:
I was eager to test out the internet speed on this.

Image speaks for itself. On the 3 network.

Hang in there everyone!
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
Why ?

Are you meaning for fresh stock in Play Store ?

If so just download the Nexus 4 stock checking app [it checks ALL Nexus devices]

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...yLmp1bGllbnZlcm1ldC5uZXh1c2F2YWlsYWJpbGl0eSJd
[Nexus 4 General] Dare1390:
TNT have lost my phone!!! It was supposed to be sent to my local depot yesterday for delivery today but didn't make it!!! it didn't arrive at the depot.

They say it won't get to me (assuming they find it) until tomorrow at the earliest - 3 days after my shipping email.

I can't put into publishable words my anger right now :mad::mad::mad::mad:

I definitely want my shipping refunded.
[Nexus 4 General] lowtje:
Yes to check for the new stock. Also using the app already but thnx anyway! I'm ordering through a friend in the UK :)
[Nexus 4 General] maheshanand87:
For those of you who have their Nexus 4's delivered, has the money been taken out of your account?

In my case the £289 that was ring fenced does not show up :confused:

Is this normal?
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
You would have known this if you had bothered to read the thread in full -- its ''ONLY'' 1400 pages long ! :laugh::D:silly:

---------- Post added at 01:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:48 PM ----------

The Play Store won't open for new orders any faster even if you use both app checkers and Chrome refresh ;) Believe me - I'm waiting just the same. If you let it take it over your life it will be like waiting for Xmas :crying:
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
Charged my phone, guess what buzzing from the charger lol

Buzzing for 30secs after taking it off too lol

LG love buzzing devices

[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
For real ?

Contact google and ask for shipping refund ;)

I think if you have the same sparkly back then you might have old stock.. Maybe one that was sent back to Google.

[Nexus 4 General] Audioboxer:
Have this with the RMA I'm sending back. Have my new device in hands right now, only just got it. Will check the plug on it.

I've had two RMAs from UK stock manufactured in December. Both have light bleed along the top, does anyone else have it? I find as well if I tap the middle of the screen on a black background the LCD ripples. They're not glued very well.
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
can i just RMA the charger ?

the phone seems ok.
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
They supposedly dry out after several days. Not sure how long you've had yours ?
[Nexus 4 General] adidas007:
I dont think google rma's the charger :P still try talking to them!
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Anyone else apart from me still waiting? Feel so alone
[Nexus 4 General] Audioboxer:
My charger is buzzing in this unit as well. My first charger didn't buzz (November batch), so the December batch must have a lot of "faulty" chargers. They still work but it doesn't sound healthy.

Google only RMA the whole unit, I think we need to go through LG for accessories.
[Nexus 4 General] RomanosN:
Yeap for real :good:

on both orders.

there is a contact form in their website under contact us.

every time i used it, they replied within 10 minutes.
[Nexus 4 General] mzr92:
At the top of their website there is a contact us option and you can send a message.

It does say leave a comment but they make sure it goes to the right department.

Might be the same issue as myself and others have had where the package is at the wrong depot
[Nexus 4 General] tMb1874:
The new Nexus 10s in stock also say 3-5 business days! Seems too good to be true. I wonder how many they have in stock this time?

[Nexus 4 General] chris3131:
Finally have the phone in my hands and I love it. But as a final rubbish twist, they didn't put my name on the label, just the address - luckily I got mine, but if I'd had it sent to work (a building with thousands of other people) I may never have seen it. Plus the jiffy bag was ripped, showing the phone box through the bubble wrap. Glad the ordeal is over at last!
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
Moonie is left, I really hope he gets his this week, I don't understand what's happened to his, last three days nearly everyone has gotten theirs

This phone feels sooo smooth (physically)... I've been an iPhone man since the 3g although before that I had a HTC G1. This has to be the sexiest phone I've owned. Really really nice.

Google are still a bunch of wankers for the whole Nexus 4 debacle though :)
[Nexus 4 General] Ingram85:
Had my shipping email yesterday around 17:30

As of this evening the Tnt tracking thing says it's 'delayed due to routing error: recovery actions in process' or something like that.

Wtf?! What does this even mean. Bunch of useless imbeciles.
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
Glad you're all enjoying the phone fellas.

A quick question, if I had to order the N4 via the phone would it work ?
[Nexus 4 General] ifti_a:
No idea

Google have all device instock except nexus 4.

Not sure if you want to wait a few more days.

Looking as they pumped out so many orders it shouldnt be more than 7 - 10 days.

But its just a guess.

[Nexus 4 General] Ingram85:
Just to update anyone who has had the tracking info: 'delay due to routing error, recovery actions underway'

I have just called tnt and been told that it means the item was put on to the wrong van, basically a van that doesn't cover the particular patch of your area within your town/city. I was reassured it would be delivered tomorrow.

Ony thing is im in work until 16:00 so it will probably mean making an hours journey to the depot to pick it u myself tomorrow night. Ridiculous as to why they cant leave it with a neighbour. They must know people go to work right?

Guys I need your help for regarding shipping refund issues. :)

My friend ordered it for me, because I am not from UK. Anyway order was placed on DEC 5 with estimated delivery 5-6 weeks and shipped this Tuesday. On Thursday there was 7 weeks. Can my friend claim shipping refund for this? If so how it can be done, because I cannot see any choices in google play support. So I don`t know how to describe actions which needs to be done to my buddy in UK :)

And the best news, that I will have this beast by this evening! BTW shipping from UK to Lithuania added another 44 pounds to the device expenses :)
[Nexus 4 General] BLADESMAN1889:
Yeah, what I was meaning ifti_a was if & when the phone comes back into stock at PS & I'm not at home with my laptop, can I make the purchase/order on my phone - I'm wondering because when using the phone ''devices'' isn't available through the Play Store app, so would it work via Google Chrome as I could be out for ours and waiting until I got back to the flat/laptop could mean the difference between 3-5 days and 6-7 weeks :eek::eek::eek:

That's bad, any idea why ?

Damn Google
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
I have emailed asking for an explanation...

Im my mind, i think it may be due to Jersey not being "officially" supported by the Play Store.

The devices section is not accessible from here only though a proxy :/.

Although my delivery address has "United Kingdom" in it, i think they may have spotted that its actually in Jersey, Channel Islands :crying:.

Oh well, I have paid a premium for my stupidity.

Hope to be joining you lot very soon, hoping for tomorrow!!! Next day delivery :)
[Nexus 4 General] Michealtbh:
Uhm you could have walked into o2 or Carphone Warehouse and picked one up for that price
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Don't have either o2 or CPW over here in Jersey...
[Nexus 4 General] Moonie17:
Eeeek I have a shipping mail for the one i ordered on Ebay :) lol.

I searched the map for Jersey Channel Island, you are so close to France :eek: I thought you were more close to England or something :P
