No duty, no nothing... just cost around 300 bucks for

- a great quality TPU case which is tough and beautiful and

- full-body front-back protection!

Shipping is free, sent as merchandise and no customs fee is there!

---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 AM ----------

TPU case quality is good... The grip and tough case is flexible as well as perfect fitting...

China ka maal hai sab! They buy tens of thousands of units at throwaway prices from China.

Chinese companies ship A grade material to US, better quality than the rest of the world.

In a hurry in cutting Sim to MicroSim i damage my Airtel sim. Gone to Airtel Care center and they charge me just Rs.25 and gave me microsim card and it got activated on the same day.

If anybody fear to damage the sim, go to Airtel care and they will cut your sim using Sim cutter to MicroSim for free :good:
[Nexus 4 General] nitin.chobhe:
Thanks for sharing this. I was planning to use it (when it arrives. Expecting it in 2-3 days) :good:
[Nexus 4 General] akhil.in:
https://www.xtremeguard.com/ They deliver in around 6-12 days. Free Shipping.

The best time to order is after you order your Nexus 4 and await delivery...
[Nexus 4 General] Harkunwar:
Yup, you are right.

But, Galaxy S III has richer blacks as compared to that of the iPhone
[Nexus 4 General] haxor:
its is old but what i am trying to tell you that according to LG india it is being launch end of nov but it is not so its seems it was fake news and like samsung LG also won't launch Nexus 4 in india !

Don't worry about the shipping from US to India... Just include Insurance for the product while shipping.... It may cost u some extra bucks but its worth it & it will still be cheaper than the prices sold in India... Refer to this link for more info...

http://www.fedex.com/us/international/shipping-to-india/index.html

I hav said this in previous posts also...

Shipping is not at all a problem... Ordering device from play store & waiting for it to deliver is a pain in the ass...
[Nexus 4 General] vickedme:
I am 72 number on cart2india list and here is what I got from them:

"You would be receiving an email from eBay asking for approval of time extension of 23 days. Please access and approve the same to prevent cancellation of the order.

Our suppliers in the U.S are facing certain issues due to the recent hurricane activity,Please bear with us.

You would be receiving your product on or before the 7th Jan,2013"

"Hurricane" seriously.
[Nexus 4 General] shishirasm:
Thats the bizzare rply I've ever seen... If they blamed it on google or LG it would have been a different scenario... Blaming on Hurricane for LG Nexus 4 Delivery is something beyond stupid & there is something fishy going on... Because playstore restricted the new orders to 2 piece per person... These guys have taken orders from more than 150 people... Even if they have ordered a 100 on 13th launch which highly unlikely, they cannot fulfil other's shipments before 7th Jan... As u can see Google only have taken preorders till feb & how in the hell these guys can deliver so much from by 7th??? This is a blunder... I think they will ask for another extensin from 7th... this is outrageous... :mad:
[Nexus 4 General] karanits:
tareek pe tareek pe tareek!!!!:confused::eek:
[Nexus 4 General] vickedme:
I agree. It's outrageous. I was excited to receive it before 10 dec and last reply (before the one above) I got was that my order was back ordered from Google on 13nov and that it would be delayed till 15th dec.

They even sent me a link to Engadget news of google back orders. If they were telling the truth that time then they must have ordered on 13th and should have got delivered to their US address.

I think they are fooling their customers right now.

Unluckily for me I also ordered besteverskin for it and it would reach me coming week. -:(
[Nexus 4 General] vsajan:
whats ur order number on ebay lisiting ?
[Nexus 4 General] m0h1t:
One of my orders had gotten cancelled a day back. The reason cited was that 'PPO Box #' is undeliverable.

But today morning/18:30 EST, I got a shipment email from google for my other which also ships to the same address and includes the 'PPO Box#' thing in the address.
[Nexus 4 General] shishirasm:
I say inform them to ebay customer service... Complain about these stupid reasons they are giving & offering time extensions over & over again to buy time & holding 28-30k of ur money... Just think, If that money was in a bank account, it would have given u a 8% interest by now... Go & argue about that in Customer service... Though I have not ordered from them, I can feel how disappointing & heart breaking their move is... U could have easily ordered from playstore, atleast u would be assured of a device by now... Now its like neither there nor here... they messed it up for everything...
[Nexus 4 General] vickedme:
72. I ordered on 13th but well before the launch worldwide. So effectively my phone could have been ordered.
[Nexus 4 General] vsajan:
I'm around 20 in the listing til yet i haven't got any confirmation about the device :P ..... yesterday i saw a post ...he called cart2india they said the 1st 20-30 devices gonna ship in 1-2 weeks of dec ..next followed in jan....

lets c what gonna happen ....i am fed up watching reviews daily .. at-least being happy watching reviews :P

---------- Post added at 08:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 AM ----------

hey if u order on 13th of nov u wont be around 72 have u ordered 8 or 16gb ?

i ordered on 11th i am 25th
[Nexus 4 General] vickedme:
16GB.
[Nexus 4 General] IndianSuzuki:
Ordered nexus 4 in us

I've ordered a nexus 4 in us at my cousins place. However, i used the india credit card along with my indian phone number(Google wasnt accepting the order without original card details) . The question that i've is, will there be any issue during delivery? as in do we need to produce any proof of certificate etc.? The phone will be delivered in 2nd week of Jan.

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 General] shishirasm:
Nope... They ship by UPS courier services & they don't even ask u for a signature... If nobody is in the house to recieve, they just keep it on ur doorstep & go...
[Nexus 4 General] ed10000:
Nope. If it does go out for delivery, there will be no problem at all. Worst case scenario - they will cancel your order before they even prepare to ship it because your billing address and shipping address don't match. I'm not saying that will happen, but there's always a possibility.
[Nexus 4 General] akshaysanwal:
After reading that, all I can feel is remorse. I cancelled my order just because I was using an International Card. I thought only cards that were bought in US (US address) was allowed. Crap.
[Nexus 4 General] rkaria1970:
Hey guys, i too have ordered the n4 16gb from cart2india on 14/11 after a failed attempt to buy it on 13/11 directly from play store & ship it to India. I booked it for 25.5k after applying ebay coupon, which is pretty much reasonable. I received the time extension email from c2i & accepted the same as it was indeed a technical glitch world over with the n4 launch. They have committed to ship it on or before 12th.

Just a few minutes back i called ebay toll free with the issue, the CCR was firm that a second time extension is not allowed & the seller has to ship it by 12th (as per my time extension from c2i), he also informed that a shipping email has to be provided on or before that date.

He was emphatic that C2I was a reputed ebay seller & adhere to their commitment.

Also another thing if you notice in the time extension email where ebay clarifies under NOTE, that if you decline the time extension limit then also the seller have to ship as per their original commitment. I was just wondering how many declined the request & if they would be escalated in the front.

I have already orders the nilliken hard case, seems that will arrive before the n4.;)

Well it seems everyone is putting the cart before the horse! :D

[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:
I finally ordered Ringke Fusion for Rs.1667(cost me 1300 or so after the discount coupon) using global easybuy from ebay. And for the meanwhile a s-line tpu case and matte screen guard off ebay for around 400.

Should get the phone tonight or tomorrow along with the case and screen guard by tomorrow and ready to use then.
[Nexus 4 General] mdaamir1989:
Where can i get a bumper case similar to what Google is offering in India ?

My nexus baby just arrived yesterday and its amazing !!!!!!
[Nexus 4 General] Xytise:
Wonder why my ordered was sent via First Flight courier their website sucks and doesn't the tracking details anyways I called them and they said it will be delivered by today evening. Super Excited!
[Nexus 4 General] mohit_delhi:
Which coupon code did you use in ebay as I am also looking to buy same case?
[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:
I used it yesterday, the WTF sale code they had which they flashed for limited time. Got 20% off. Currently the active ones are ICICI, HDFC, AXIS and Yes bank 8% codes.

Else wait for the weekend else they have a weekend 7.5-8% code every time but sometimes with minimum purchase rider.

Go for these bank specific codes if you have internet banking/credit cards of any of these banks.
[Nexus 4 General] niraj30518:
I too had ordered on 19th

they gave me awb no, while tracking its showing that it will be delivered today evening at 8 pm, though its still showing 'At Transit' in Indore.

[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:
Similar status for me, still showing In Transit At Indore with expected time of delivery as today evening at 8pm. I am hopeful of getting it by tomorrow only.
[Nexus 4 General] Xytise:

[Nexus 4 General] niraj30518:

Update : Got a call from Fedex, they saying Rs326 octroi charges to pay :banghead:
[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:
Get Ringke Fusion as case, reviews have been positive. Check on ebay, being sold for Rs.1650 buy an ebay seller from Hyderabad- http://www.ebay.in/itm/Ringke-Fusio...?pt=IN_Mobile_Accessories&hash=item4d0ab6f148 or at Rs.1673 through global easybuy- http://geb.ebay.in/g/ImportHubViewI...on-Premium-Hybrid-Hard-Case-Cover-Eco-Package

Else get it through ishop or ppobox if cheaper there.

Screenguard order from xtremeguard preferably the full set using the 83% off and for the meanwhile found this matte screen guard for both front and back for just Rs.129 including shipping, not sure about the quality. - http://www.ebay.in/itm/251245750091?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Else go for gadgetshieldz, they are nice, and shipping also quick, i have one on my HTC Desire HD for last 2 years, still holding up well.- http://www.ebay.in/itm/Google-LG-Ne...?pt=IN_Mobile_Accessories&hash=item53f68b023e

Review Before Purchase!!

I am a New User, I Find This Site When Searching For How To get Nexus 4 in India, But I am not being allowed to post any link so can any one go to techimperia dotcom and review the site which they are referring in the post to buy nexus 4, will it be safe? I Would Very thankful if anyone can answer this. :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] ramkumar2000:
No me and abhishekagrawal both ordered on 19th march in price of 25700, he already received it and i should receive it by tomorrow (it has already reached mumbai)
[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:
Okay so i have received the product.

Unboxed it too.

The package was packed well with tape, newspapers and bubble wrap.On top there was an envelope with bill and Vat paid mentioning the IMEI number.

Inside the package has been opened by them to check and then resealed with their own seals mentioning DO NOT ACCEPT IF TAMPERED. Along with a sticker mentioning the importer address and month of import (Mine says FEB 2013) and a MRP of Rs.35990.

The phone is immaculate, no fingerprints, scratches, the original screen guard is intact, wall charger and usb cable new and packed as they come and with sealed user guide. And it indeed is 16gb model.

Very very happy and delivered in around 27 hours of ordering. Shall update this post with pics soon.
[Nexus 4 General] FuzzyBlacken:
They still do. I ordered last night. Only problem is that they have started verifying country location from google account. So in case you cant see the device, create a new account and order.
[Nexus 4 General] Shin2_D`:
My order too got failed, i ordered on Mar 16 and got cancelled mail on march 18 :crying:

Now, i tried again using different Indian Credit Card(icici). hope this time they ship :rolleyes:

The scruitny is real tight...I have been placing orders since 13th and my final order placed on 17th hasn't shipped till yet. It has been in pre-order status with single Google bullet since 17th. AFAIK the second processing bullet comes rightaway when the order is placed

Hide the imei dude,

And the charger isint the USA one...
[Nexus 4 General] ramkumar2000:
Hello i do not know which method this website talks about because i don't have access to these sites at office but what i can tell u is that the method shown here on the first page of this post is very much reliable and u can surely trust the methods..
[Nexus 4 General] ashintknocks:
Thanks, That Should Help as Coming From a Senior Member
[Nexus 4 General] ramkumar2000:
Charger isn't the USA one...??? than is it a duplicate charger..?? coz nexus 4 never launched in india so no indian charger is available...
[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:
Well it does seem original and not duplicate. And it does not have Indian pins. But if its not USA one then its possible the seller has sourced these Nexus from some other playstore rather than USA, hence this difference.

Here have a look-
[Nexus 4 General] Giribhai:
Guys pls reply...
[Nexus 4 General] rohit.r6:
Facing a similar issue with my orders

1st order I placed on 16th March which was cancelled by Google on 18th march citing some multiple account issues

2nd order placed on 18th MArch and waiting for Google to update the order status and show the second bullet

Seems to be some issue with acceptance of Indian Credit cards.....however 2nd time round I created a new account specifically for the same and also added billing address as my cousins address in US and the shipping adress as CWG adress

Praying that Google ships my order soon:fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 4 General] ramkumar2000:
I tried with HDFC Platinum international credit card and it accepted the order...i dont see any reason why it should not accept gold international card...and shipment of nexus 4 from google is very random..some people got it shipped on same day and for some it even took 1-2 weeks
[Nexus 4 General] Bluffyone:
Hi guys,

This is my timeline

Ordered on 2 march, got 1st bullet point and was charged immedietly.

Got 2nd bullet point on 5th and

It got shipped on 6th.

reach ComG facility on 7th and they notified me and asked to select my shipping option

they shipped on 9th after i paid for express shipping.

It reached india on 11 but got stuck due to slow customs in blore. Dhl were not able to update the tracker nor gave a definate answer. poor cc on dhl part.

I finally got my device on 14 and since then i am enjoying it, so the delay in writing this post

I have updated my blog with the more details for those who need complete procedure along with guidelines and checklist. plz check if you need any help. I got lot of help here and i am returning the favour.

here is the link
[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:

Me placed order again yesterday(March 19), hope to get approve this time.

So its the Singapore version... any differences from the USA one. ? Also how do I get a micro sim? can it be done at home?
[Nexus 4 General] ramkumar2000:
I think the charger is UK one..coz Singapore dont have nexus 4 yet..i think for micro sim u can ask any local mobile shop guys or u can go to ur service provider and can ask for micro sim

I'm not seller :laugh: I just brought this today and it is worth of money :cowboy:
[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:
Something Interesting I found, if you see the place on the label where it shows the IMEI, there is NGR written on there above BLACK BLACK. Also I just opened the user manual and on last page inside the address is of LG Nigeria. So I believe these are sourced from Nigeria. I don't even believe this! LG and Google have launched this phone in Nigeria while one of the biggest smartphone markets India is still waiting for official launch!

Others who receive them and ordered through the ebay seller e-next please confirm this.
[Nexus 4 General] atulalvenkar:
Outside 5-6 countries which have devices section in Play Store it's entirely LG's call where to launch and where not to launch. Google has nothing to do with it.
[Nexus 4 General] seltaeb:
Probably only manufactured, not necessarily sold there. Although I was not aware that Nigeria's economic climate was conducive to manufacturing. Good for them!
[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:
No, it says Made in Korea so manufacturing is definitely not of Nigeria.
[Nexus 4 General] ramkumar2000:
LG launched N4 in nigeria just a few days before..around march 10-11, and some where i found its cost is around 70-80 naira...which means 25-26k INR..than how come seller is selling in 25.7k...??
[Nexus 4 General] seltaeb:
Nigerian scam :P
[Nexus 4 General] mohitgalaxy3:
Dude how come $32/$25 tax is not applied on your phone ???

EDIT: Got it you must bought it from a tax free zone.

i used comgateway and their facility is located in tax free zone...hence no tax

Same situation here ....

Ordered on 16.. got it cancelled on monday,

Ordered another on 18th .. Waiting for some luck..
[Nexus 4 General] ramkumar2000:
So it seems that ebay seller has been giving the LG Nexus 4 imported from Nigeria, does that means that OS updates will be delayed coz of LG, the reason being not sold by Google play store..??

Any comments guys..??

---------- Post added at 07:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 PM ----------

If this one gets cancelled (lets hope it wont) than create a new gmail account using the vpn and give us address in gmail info and than pay using a credit card and give the address as Pppobox/Cwg/borderlinx/Hsg both in google wallet and billing address of credit card..:)
[Nexus 4 General] abhishekagrawal:
Well I received 4.2.2 immediately on powering on and connecting to wifi but it has been out for sometime now. I don't think even at places LG is selling it directly it is modifying software or controlling the updates so I think it should be good. Rest time will tell once next update arrives. :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 4 General] ramkumar2000:
Thats a relief to hear...so what u did about the charger..i mean we will have to buy some adapter to use it in our indian plugs..?
