Your order is accepted. Won't get canceled now afaik.
[Nexus 4 General] sulabhgupta:
breakup of cost? aren't there going to be delivery charges to India?
[Nexus 4 General] akshayshankar1:
You have no idea how awesome that is to hear! :D

Uhm it was the 8 GB version so 299 USD plus shipping to Maryland so an addition 13.99 USD plus tax of around 17.94 USD

so its

299+13.99+17.94=330.93 which is 17853.67 Rs.

And I was intially gonna ship with HopShopGo but then a relative is coming over so thats a blessing.

You guys are positive it will go through? :<

It still says processing in the Wallet thing. But ships in the other info I linked. God this is exciting.
[Nexus 4 General] meher91:
dont get too exited...every1 gets the initial message...

ur order in not confirmed untill u get a "your order has been shipped" mail...

GL though..! :good:

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 PM ----------

330.93 is just an authorization amount...if google charges your card (i.e if ur order get confirmed and is shipped) u'll be charged an additional 3.5% as FX fee by the bank...
[Nexus 4 General] sulabhgupta:
OK, you should have mentioned that somebody is getting it for you. It basically US pricing with pretty much no overheads so no point discussing.
[Nexus 4 General] akshayshankar1:
Oh okay. Thanks! :D

I actually clicked on more info and got this(http://i.imgur.com/omd39ub.png?1) so I figured I mightve cleared through.
[Nexus 4 General] vd1900:
He he he great finally after so many queries and question mark u finally bought it :p
[Nexus 4 General] meher91:
u'll get to know that within 2 days...

that is just an estimate shown to everyone before google checks the card details...if there r any discrepancies then google might cancel the order and your card wont be chatged...

Wow so basically everyone who've been saying their orders have been cancelled because Google doesn't accept Indian Credit Cards anymore have reached this stage? I was optimistic for no reason. Oh well. eBay still is an option.

Is Nexus 4 Available in Tamil Nadu?Can you give some details please?
[Nexus 4 General] dacingfreak:
No its not available you have to get it from online shopping portals like eBay or from other country

---------- Post added at 11:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:44 PM ----------

ya thats wht i'hv been trying to say from begining...

but if you go to your wallet and click on transactions...

if you can find the second bullet point saying that "google has received your order" then the is confirmed...the first is something like "you have placed an order for..."

if yours is still stuck at the first bullet point, chances are tht ur order will get cancelled...
[Nexus 4 General] r2m30:
@akshayshankar1 - yes ur rite Google is verifying the shipping address and billing address that is ur credit card address and shipping address. my order got cancelled last week and same for my friends, and also google is not shipping to any of the PPO BOX ....!!!! :(

and their is no other alternative .. :confused::confused::silly:
[Nexus 4 General] harshahv:
I think what you mean is they don't ship to a PO Box which will be unmanned. It will ship to freight forwarders like PPOBox, HSG, Comgateway etc. I myself got it shipped to comgateway via a friend last week :)

Is maniacstore reliable. ??
[Nexus 4 General] Dipesh_Devil:
ManiacStore.com

Yep. I ordered on Monday and received it on Thursday with Cash On Delivery (@ 28,490). Worth paying a bit more, you don't have to worry about paying in advance or getting it shipped it from USA :laugh:

It is working perfectly fine. :good:
[Nexus 4 General] Giribhai:
Yes it is...

You can also chk iBhejo.com...

One of my frend bought Nexus 4 16 GB @26K frm iBhejo and he got it delivered within 5 days sealed packed.

He also got nice black TPU case+Scratchguard.

They are also providing 1 year warranty... quite impressed with overall service.
[Nexus 4 General] JamesAnderson147:
Now, I have got the device at hopshopgo address in US. For shipping it is asking me value of the order. What value should I give in there? Should I give the exact value or a low value(to reduce customs)? Basically, what is beneficial giving a low value or the exact value?
[Nexus 4 General] sbandaly:
yea it is:good:

Guys,

Nexus 4 16GB available for 24.5K on Jadopado. Just apply the code "jplovesyou" and get a 30$ discount. See attached.
[Nexus 4 General] harshahv:
Don't under-declare. Customs might create problem. And you will save maybe 300 bucks or so. The upside is not worth the risk you will take.

---------- Post added at 12:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 PM ----------

For jadopado, customs is additional I believe. So in hand it might cost you sound 26-27.

Where in india can i buy Nillkin Fresh flip cover for N4 ? Any indian web sites?
[Nexus 4 General] nitin.chobhe:
I have not seen it on any Indian store. I bought it from global easy buy on eBay. If you buy from GEB you will not have to pay any customs. But if you are in metro city you all have to pay octroi...
[Nexus 4 General] sulabhgupta:
thanks for the info. i just found it on eBay for 1200/-

how do you like this cover? is that hard plastic that holds the phone and soft leather to cover it?
[Nexus 4 General] Fractalnoize:
Anybody else facing this issue on Wi fi that notifications are not poping until the power button is pressed?
[Nexus 4 General] akshayshankar1:
Ok,to those who say Indian Credit Cards dont work anymore YOU PEOPLE ARE WRONG.

(Well at least in my case.)

Ordered via State Bank Credit card via us.newfreevpn.com VPN and Chrome Browser- 17th April 2013

Shipping and Billing address are both US,in this case a private residence but it shouldn't matter if you guys are shipping it off to Borderlinx or some ****.

Phone number has to be a legit US one. (Though I checked with my relative and they didn't get a text or anything as of yet)

Kept checking that first email which states 'You have ordered a purchase' receipt.

Nothing the whole night.

Next day around 2:20pm,after almost 24 hours got another email stating that it has shipped.

Since Im getting it through a relative,I realise it isn't relevant to a lot of you but what the purpose of my post is,is that confirming Indian Credit Cards still work.

For those interested,my final cost for N4 8GB was 17800 INR.

The card that I used has never been used online before.

The gmail account I used was created over a VPN and NEVER accessed through an indian ISP without the VPN.

Also note that I tried buying a free Community episode and it was rejected immediately.

So thats all folks. Goodluck.
[Nexus 4 General] harshahv:
Could be the wifi optimization thing. There should be a setting to turn it off. That works for some ppl.
[Nexus 4 General] meher91:
Congratz..! :good:

but just bcoz ur order has been accepted does'nt mean others are wrong...most of the people who have ordered got their orders rejected but as far as i rembr a guy ordered on 4th and his order also got accepted...

so guess u got lucky...

i had ordered on 13th and that too with an indian phone no.

so it dont matter if u list out the steps wch u hav followed...it all depends on luck...

---------- Post added at 02:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:44 PM ----------

that is a know issue on the nexus 4...it was supposed to be fixed in 4.2.2 but was'nt...

google says it will be done in KLP...there is a thread on XDA aswell...
[Nexus 4 General] sulabhgupta:
its very funny that you think creating a gmail account over VPN and not accessing from India actually matters. You're not ordering from the FBI or something.
[Nexus 4 General] meher91:
LOL ya..! :laugh:

orders are being rejected coz of card validation...

i had ordered from my indian gmail id of 6 years on 13th march by giving an indian phone no. and my order went through...

it all depends on google...
[Nexus 4 General] akshayshankar1:
I know its stupid as hell but I figured taking every precaution would be worth it. It worked so I guess it was worth it. Figured I'd tell people what worked for me.
[Nexus 4 General] meher91:
fair enough but u did'nt have to say tht we were wrong and tht too in bold letters... :D

anywayz whn is ur phone coming here and whr do u stay in hyd..?
[Nexus 4 General] akshayshankar1:
Crap,Im sorry really didn't mean to offend anyone! D:

Itll come over in may so ill have to wait. :\

I stay near central.
[Nexus 4 General] Giribhai:
What is this issue exactly ?

Pls provide the link of that thread.
[Nexus 4 General] Fractalnoize:
Oh I see no wonder I felt like I've read an issue like this before
[Nexus 4 General] meher91:
there is some setting which puts the wifi to sleep when ur phone screen is off...so u wont get any notifications like whatsapp mails etc when ur screen is off on wifi...

mobile internet works fine though...

Beware... I think the one you saw is not original as the cost of original Nillkin cover is around 25-30 $.

The cover is good. Yes the base (you can not say it is plastic, I don't know what is it) hold the phone and fits perfectly. And the soft leather covers the front.

I'm loving this case. I'm using it since last month and I've also posted some pics when I got it :angel:

Folks,

I will be getting my Nexus 4 16 GB soon from iShopInternational. The device has already reached Mumbai and is awaiting customs.

I would like to know which accessories should I be buying?

1. Headphones

2. Scratch Guard

3. Case

Please share your views on the above and help me select the best choices.
[Nexus 4 General] darkmessiah:
yes i bought nexus 4 16gb from jadopado.com and the customs charges were 3k at chennai airport which i had to pay to the couriers.

but i got the mobile in hand 3rd day after making the payment so it was worth it ..

Yes, it's a hard material but it does not scratch the phone. It just perfectly fits to the phone...

Accessories are charged at 16% if I'm not wrong. Could be a little more or less depending on the whim of the officer.

Just wanted to confirm if it is the revised version or the first version which had some problem with button press
[Nexus 4 General] zubin111:
Nothing!! if the cost is below $25 and shipped through regular post, unless you are extremely unlucky, you wont be charged anything... I have had tens of cases from HK, China, US without paying a dime... some of them even greater than $25 but shipped through normal post. Although people have had some bad experiences regarding delivery but i have a 100% delivery record...

Earphones

I am thinking of buying earphones. I have managed to cut the list to two:

Soundmagic pl11 (has great reviews on amazon)

JVC Marshmallow hafx34

Has anyone used any of these with nexus?

Please suggest the better one

---------- Post added at 12:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 PM ----------

From the reviews the seller has received it seems to be the revised version.

Infact it is available at Rs.1450 from another seller

http://www.ebay.in/itm/Ringke-Fusio...ies&hash=item27d1f9514a&_uhb=1#ht_5624wt_1135

If you think the seller to be fine (he has only 40 ratings) you can go ahead.

Do use bank specific coupons to get upto 7.5% discount
[Nexus 4 General] Sukhi:
Yes go ahead. I bought from him last month and i guess i received the new lot

headphones for N4
[Nexus 4 General] Mohit12:
You probably should check out JVC xplosives. They might cost a bit more than what you were hoping for, but they're really good. I recently bought the AKG K375 and they're really, really good, but really really expensive as well. I've used beats and these are much better.

Basically, most earphones under $20 won't differ TOO much. Only when you cross that $40 mark do you notice the difference. I'd recommend the xplosives for under $20.

Sorry I can't choose from the two you mentioned since I've never used either.

What will be the price for 16 gb model if released in INDIA ?

Hey im new to this forum, i really need ur opinion about getting this from US.

What will be the price if nexus 16 GB releases in india ?

also, i saw many users about to get earphones from others brands? what about the official nexus 4 earphones ( $ 19.99 )

for ur info my current phone is W580i, so u could understand my level of knowledge about androids , Please do reply friends,
[Nexus 4 General] meher91:
dude, nexus 4 launching in india is still a speculation...

and moreover even if it launches, it might not b as cheap as it is in the US...

y would u pay 19.99$ for some OEM earphone (which we all know sucks) when u can get much better at almost the same price...

i got apple earpods from amazon for about 25$ and i must say, they are awesome...

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0097BEG1C/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

haha ya we can understand, nexus 4 will be an overkill coming from W580i...but it is an awesome phone and i would suggest you to go for it if u have some1 coming from the us...
[Nexus 4 General] CircuitBug:
From all the reviews I've read online, the OEM headset is much better than most OEM headsets that come with the phones and definitely better than apple earpods.

Friends,

Just got the news that my Nexus 4 has been delivered at my home by Blue Dart. Following was my shopping experience:

After two failed tries to buy the device from the US Play Store, I finally ordered the Nexus 4 16 GB from iShopInternational on 11th April. I placed the order as soon as I their email saying "Celebrate Gudi Padwa with 50% off on International Shipping". The quote given to me was Rs. 22,885 which felt pretty reasonable and I just went ahead and placed the order. Got an email on same day saying my product has been purchased. Then started the agonizing wait for the device to be delivered, checking the tracking section multiple times everyday to see if there is any update. Got an email on 15th April saying that my product has been dispatched to India. However there was no update on the tracking section till 17th so out of frustration I contacted their customer care via the Chat application and they said that the product has reached Mumbai and is awaiting Customs. That was music to my ears and post that chat all of a sudden the tracking section started showing the status :). Got an email yesterday i.e. 18th April that my Nexus has been dispatched from their Mumbai hub with a Blue Dart tracking number. Today got a call from Blue Dart confirming that they will be delivering the product at my home. Best thing is that there was no octroi charged :) although there is octroi in Pune.

Just dying to leave office and reach home to play with my beauty.....Now the hunt for the accessories begins....

thanks for the reply,

and after 20 times of image verification failure i have posted this:victory:, this is even harder than getting nexus 4 from US.

Is it only for me (each and every post - Img verification ) or for everybody ?
[Nexus 4 General] meher91:
lol u say that it is better than the earpods...but in the link which u provided itself the reviewer says its bass is'nt good...

the only thing he says is that it is louder than the earpods...

ya obv the sound is louder bcoz it has those silicon/rubber endings...

have u seen the earpod design? it does'nt provide much on noise cancellation but the beauty of it is that u can comfortably wear them for as long as you want and u wont feel any strain on your ears...and they wont pop out while jogging/walking aswell...also the bass and everything is good...

if you call loud better then there are even cheaper earphones which are louder...

I ordered from I shop on 13 and they purchased instantly..

I too checked it frequently to track but always shows awaiting from seller

Just now I called them and ask them to track it they say they buy in lots from Google and they don't have individual tracking no for each phone... he asked me to wait for 4-5 days...but I am going out of station after 3 days and wont return. Before 29 th.:screwy:

I will be away and it will remain as such for 5 days at home!!!!

I saw the 'r1' but its out of my budget, I was looking for something within 1000.:)
[Nexus 4 General] numero_uno:
Checked at this place today and he quoted 26.5K for the 16GB version :( blaming it on wild price swings and increased demand.. will try and check it a few days later..

Also wanted to know given that N4 and S3 are almost coming at the same cost now(25.5 and 27.5).. which would be a better deal ??

I have tried looking up reviews on the net but they all seem to hinge on the fact that N4 is almost equal to S3 but since N4 is almost half of S3 (which sadly is not the case here) N4 makes a better purchase. Wanted your opinions on this ?

Also, if poss. a few good links providing detailed comparisions between N4 and S3 :)
