Guys, need some help! Got an SMS from bank saying that my account has been debited 20.5k by Google. I thought that since this is the second charge, my phone must have been shipped. I checked my play order and it hasn't ! the only update it shows is that instead of 11th Feb date , it now shows 18th Feb! My bank account has been debited twice now. Seriously freaking out !
[Nexus 4 General] vaibkulk:
Dont worry you will soon get a shipping mail with tracking no. order is now processed...

So In wallet at first you have to select country.So I should leave it as india or i have to change this also to USA to match borderlinx address

---------- Post added at 03:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:42 PM ----------

I always get this error "Your Instrument is not valid" When i try to signup with wallet. I have a Bank Of Maharashtra Debit Card.

Any Ideas What I should DO
[Nexus 4 General] IllUMINATUz:
that's due to sudden change in temperature.. that happens for all glass articles.. that's normal.. if you pour boiling hot water in a cup that's cold, it will obviously break.. it's same for iron also.. if heated, it expands and if it's cold it contracts.. but glass molucules are not like that.. in the process of expanding and contracting, it breaks coz literally its like you are bending it right?? iron, even if you bend it will get bent and then you can bend it back but glass you cannot do that.. these are the physics and some atomic science involved..

P.S. This is my 400th post.. :P

Goolge Wallet $1 transaction

Could someone please explain why $1 was spent on my credit card automatically when i added my indian credit card to Google Wallet?

Also i received the sms from my bank that $362.99 was spent on your credit card after i checkedout and paid using my card for Nexus 4 but the mail that i received from Google says that you won't be charged until your order ships. It's not gonna ship in 4-5 weeks so how was i charged in advance. Does someone with experience throw some light on this.
[Nexus 4 General] brar.arsh:
New to this thread..

Hey here is an issue..

Anyone has used http://www.hopshopgo.com/ from INDIA??

Do they charge for you CUSTOMS in India or they deliver hassle free??

And if not, then is it possible to change the shipping address as I ordered 1 yesterday??

I will give my friend's address who is coming in January..

Any suggestions about customs??
[Nexus 4 General] atulalvenkar:
$1 is verification charge. Google won't present receipt of it to your bank and it will be reverted back in some time.

Am not sure about $362 though. Btw how are you getting it into India?

[Nexus 4 General] balamu96m:
Some changes........

Glass is not very different from iron & breaking of glass with change in temperature is not by the fact its like bending....,.

Almost all daily articles show thermal expansion!

Here glass breaks because of the fact that glass comparitively conducts heat at a slower rate......................hence when hot water is poured into a cold glass vessel, the outer layer of glass which is in contact with the hot water expands more rapidly than the inner layers, and breaking starts!!

If all the layers are heated evenly to its melting point, it'll start melting even without breaking!!

Hope it is clear :D

P.S: For more information one can refer Heat & Thermodynamics chapter in a highschool physics book!
[Nexus 4 General] Pratz1:
Thanks. I am getting it with HOPSHOPGO. I think they would be the cheapest and besides i saw some good reviews of them.

Only problem is that i would have to pay for the duty separately to their delivery agent unlike borderlinx and PPOBOX at my home once i receive the package. I believe that won't be much or atleast i hope.
[Nexus 4 General] shishirasm:
Some companies like Borderlinx include the customs in their shipping... Whereas companies like MYUS won't include them in shipping & u have to pay for it when it arrives at your door steps... I don't know much about hopshopgo... So its better u ask their customer service & verify...

U cannot change ur shipping address after checkout... Its not allowed...

LL3 - UK - Just received my Nexus 4!!!:victory::victory::victory: Now waiting for my friend to bring it to India this weekend !!:highfive:
[Nexus 4 General] ed10000:
As Atul already pointed out, $1 is for verification purposes. As for the credit card being charged the entire amount, it's only a temporary hold. The hold period varies bank to bank, but typically it is 3-5 days. After the hold period, you will see the money back in your account, and once your Nexus 4 has shipped, you will be charged immediately.

Congrats man! That's a pretty close call. What was your backup plan in case it hadn't made it to your friend before this weekend?

Anyway, make sure to shoot an unboxing and first impressions video. Haven't seen one from an Indian yet, would like it. :)
[Nexus 4 General] vaibkulk:
Thats the normal charge for Express shipping...

---------- Post added at 02:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:15 PM ----------

Send a mail to therm if chat still not working. mention the UPS tracking no in the mail. Tell them that on UPS it show delivered. Weekend and Holiday might have delayed it. Also verify the address given if accurate since it reached them on 13th they should have updated it on 14th or 15th at most. HSG is reliable they will not make ur phone disappear.
[Nexus 4 General] Mindfreak14:
Yea dude.. I have the proof of delivery.. with date ,time & signed by persons name too..

But hw do I knw.. If it has reached the right person.. unless they update d pckg details!

Guys need some help.

I ordered my nexus 4 on the 12th Feb. 16gb model.

Yesterday around 9pm got a message from my bank that a transaction of rupees 21469 declined in the name of Google*Midas.

Had ordered using a SBI credit card.

No status up yet from Google about shipping or anything about payment declined.

The previous hold is still there on my credit card.

Please help me what to do
[Nexus 4 General] IndDoc:
Mail Google asking about an update. This is most likely an issue of address verification fail. The address in your Google wallet and the address you provided for shipping have to be same.
[Nexus 4 General] gdsbalaji:
any1 know we can get good cases/screen guards in chennai?
[Nexus 4 General] sagarmangla:
The previous amount was processed.

The address is USA address in both the places.

Don't know what to do.
[Nexus 4 General] chintan.y.t@gmail.com:
where do u live in india?
[Nexus 4 General] vaibkulk:
Tell the bank to authorize this transaction. Google will try to charge again if it is not successful they update it google wallet to update payment in 7 days...
[Nexus 4 General] sagarmangla:
But I did not receive any updates from google
[Nexus 4 General] IndDoc:
Are you sure you haven't exceeded the credit amount on your CC?

---------- Post added at 11:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 AM ----------

Google will update in 24 hours. That's usually how it works. Any change in status is never informed immediately.
[Nexus 4 General] D3LeT3:
Finally Shipped! Ordered on 31st January.

Finally my Nexus 4(16gb) has been shipped by Google.I'd ordered the phone on 31st January with no confirmation from Google apart from an expected shipping estimate or 1-2 weeks (i.e 13th February). Finally on 15th Feb I escalated the matter to a supervisor after the 'specialists' didn't respond.

I received my 2nd bullet point immediately on 16th and got the message that my Order's been shipped today.:o

So basically Google just needed 3 days to ship my order but for some reason my order was delayed by 16 days due to a Google Wallet hold which I wasnt even informed about.

People who've been waiting for the 2nd bullet point for over 10 days, I highly recommend you escalate the matter to a supervisor as they'll take it ahead personally and it's way better than spending time listening to TechSupport asking you to wait till your shipping timing expires.
[Nexus 4 General] chintan.y.t@gmail.com:
mine too got shipped today,after days of calling them,those tech support idiots always have a same and only answer "we are sorry but we advise u to wait."

got my order shipped after asking them to transfer my call to google wallet.

Guys, finally placed an order for 16 GB Nexus 4 using PPObox using HDFC CC.

Immediately got an SMS from HDFC for the amount 21467.60 ( authorisation amount) and an email from Google with the invoice.

Do I have to provide the order number mentioned in the email (highlighted in red) to PPObox or will I have to wait till the order is processed?

Thanks
[Nexus 4 General] ashishv:
Yes u have to provide that order number,once u get shipping notification from google,update that as well.:cool:
[Nexus 4 General] Rekursion:
Thanks. The guy at PPO told me to select "FEDEX" in the order tracking field. I'm guessing I'll have to change that to UPS once my order ships, right?
[Nexus 4 General] karnavshah:

Hey guys, I ordered a nexus 4 16 gb on 18th feb. Got an e-mail with order number, and that i will be charged after shipping. BUT, i used a HDFC netsafe virtual credit card (whose validity expires in 24hrs). I still have got no e-mail from google with tracking no. or order confirmation. Does this mean my order will be cancelled? Plz help. Thanks
[Nexus 4 General] dreamerAxe:
That should be UPS. You should update your package Id with the tracking number as well. Its usually the second part of your order number. The one after the dot.

No doubt google nexus is awesome phone. I'm lucky to have one.

But do you think we need to hold our purchases and wait for new google&motorola project X phone which is expected to be released in may along with new android version "key lime".

Any comments?
[Nexus 4 General] mammenj:
There is always going to be a new phone. If you wait, then you will always be waiting for N5, N6,...so on.

So its your choice, do you want to keep waiting for the ultimate phone or use the ultimate phone now :D
[Nexus 4 General] karnavshah:
Hey mate, are the order no. and tracking no. the same?? I got the order no. and i am waiting for my tracking id no. being in the conception that its not the same as order no. Could you please tell me what exact is the tracking number?
[Nexus 4 General] vaibkulk:
Those are just rumors. No confirmed source from Google or Motorola said there is going to be a 'X' Phone... Google generally takes about a year to launch a new phone... At Google I/O there a New android version launch....
[Nexus 4 General] sarthakkapoor25:
I dont think google will launch a new phone in may.Nexus 4 has practically come out in feb and launching a new phone would ruin its sales.I think google will update their nexus 7.And as per previous nexus phones,each phone has been launched after 1 year.Even if they do come out with a new phone,we can easily sell our nexus 4 in india.People are dumb enough to buy it at high prices.:p
[Nexus 4 General] Rekursion:
I'm sorry I did not get you. I was asked to generate the Packet Id BEFORE making the purchase itself. Where exactly should I put the part after the dot in my shipments?
[Nexus 4 General] Sidzz69:
i just did the same yesterday, Do inform me if you know anything more.

thanks
[Nexus 4 General] atulalvenkar:
The X-Phone is a rumour as of now. And even if it comes Google won't drop support for Nexus 4. We will get KLP within a week of it's release anyways.

Also a new phone is always round the corner, if you wait for the next best thing you'll always keep waiting.

HTC launched One yesterday which trounces N4, Samsung SGS4 is coming in March, Then your X-Phone in May if rumours are correct. Then Sony will come up

with something else. Then within 5 months you'll have the next Nexus and it will go on.

Currently there is no app/game on app store which does not work properly even on an S2. So your Nexus 4 will easily be relevant for next 2-3 years.
[Nexus 4 General] Dhiraj:
There should be steps in details about placing order, tracking the item in OP page.
[Nexus 4 General] alinaqvi86:
ordered on 19th Feb

Hi All,

ordered two Nexus 4s February 19 around midnight using ICICI debot card... as i used debit card i was charged once after check out itself. PPOBOX to create shipment before even ordering, but i didn't do that so they have told me to update tracking number as soon as it is available.

My query is there any dashboard in google play store where i can check status of my purchase? As of now i only see 2 phones added to my kart in play store and not other information.... thought i would ask the same.

Was super excited when the whole thing was done yesterday ;)

Cheers!! :)

TIP- in case of PPOBOX create new shipment BEFORE you order in play store, that would their work easier. Also you can give them a call before ordering they will resolve our doubts :)
[Nexus 4 General] IndDoc:
True. The OP is incomplete on a lot of crucial details. I'm thinking of writing a new thread once I have my phone in my hands. Let's see.
[Nexus 4 General] vaibkulk:
Instead of a new thread write your steps here and tell the OP to update it there...That would be better i feel.

Freinds,

I am planning to order nexus 4 and use comGateway for package forwarding.

do i have to inform comgateway that i am expecting a package?

do i need to give them UPS tracking number?

[Nexus 4 General] ShankyJain:
I have already ordered & received my Nexus 4. However today i tried to access the devices using VPN, although i was able to see the devices section, as soon as i signed in at checkout, it gave me the usual NOT AVAILABLE IN COUNTRY page. What can be the issue?
[Nexus 4 General] karnavshah:
Bullet points??

I've ordered my nexus. Just wanted to know what are these bullet points people are talking about and where can i find them? Thanks
[Nexus 4 General] trueblueram:
Woot!9th Feb order shipped today morning
[Nexus 4 General] Di@blo:
AFAIK only PPObox and SNS have guaranteed unopened delivery. If you are very lucky, you may get an unopened box using HSG/CGW/BL. (DHL/Fedex)

It takes some time to migrate your account to US play store. For few it happened within 3 days and for me it took 7 days to get migrated. Once migration is done, you will be able to access US play store and devices without any VPN.

The bullet points are nothing but the different stages that your order goes through like ordered, payment mode confirmed, google received order, shipped order etc. You can check in your Orders page.

Congrats :)

In play store above add to cart there will be an option saying learn more.. If you read that carefully you will see this statement.. "right now Google play does not accept any kind of virtual credit cards".. So I won't be surprised if your order got canceled.. Anyways best of luck.. Hope it works :)
[Nexus 4 General] ShankyJain:
Actually till yesterday I was able to access full version of playstore but dunno what happened today.
[Nexus 4 General] dreamerAxe:
It looks like there is no relation to the order no & tracking number. Just did a check on my order. I read in another thread that the second part of your order number is usually the tracking number but I guess he was wrong. Apologize for that confusion. For PPO Box users, you can create the unique packet id before ordering, just put in NA for req fields. Update the tracking number as soon as you receive it to your packet id through My shipments in PPO Box. I did it that same way. Moreover, I forgot all about creating the unique id & forgot to mention my mailbox number + unique id in the shipping details when ordering the phone. But I created the unique id later & updated the tracking details as soon as I got it. PPO Box sure did a good job. What more, the box was unopened too .
[Nexus 4 General] .Harshit:
Hi everyone,

I must say thanks alot !! to all the nice people for providing me with information on safe way to order my phone. I have been following this thread from day 1 but never actually ordered. But it all changed today. I just had it with my old phone and with people boasting about Nexus 4.

I just ordered my Nexus 4 from Google. It was simplest transaction ever. Hope i receive it soon, so i can play with it.

Thanks again!! Cheers !!
