It's fantastic to see that something Google related is actually available to Australia "first" before the US it would seem. :D

[Nexus 4 General] ethanwhj:
can you be more specific about which suburb you live in mate? i checked mine was on the truck for delivery at 7am but i am still waiting for it at home. i live in ryde area btw.

cheers
[Nexus 4 General] xxbrentonxx:
Lucky... Mine hasn't updated since Lantua Island 2 days ago, and i hope it was on a flight on one of those days. The HK fedex site doesn't even have flight details for my package so i dont even know if that has happened :(
[Nexus 4 General] NIK516:
I live in Kogarah, im sure yours will arrive soon. Is your delivery day today?
[Nexus 4 General] ethanwhj:
yeah, never mind, i got my hands on it already.haha. cheers.
[Nexus 4 General] xxbrentonxx:
Mine is now "In transit ALEXANDRIA AU Package available for clearance"! Looks like i'll be getting it tomorrow.
[Nexus 4 General] parker_dhd:
My order receipt came through at 09:28 on 31 Jan.and I got the shipping confirmation at 23:35 on 1 Feb.

FedEx tracking had it on the truck from Derrimut, Vic at 08:10 this morning and it got to my door (Docklands) at 12:42, about 30 minutes after I left for work :(

Considering I was expecting to wait 2-3 weeks before it was even shipped (as listed on the product page), getting it so quickly is pretty awesome.
[Nexus 4 General] NIK516:
I knee this time around that it would be sent pretty quick. I wonder how many they sold? Will be home in half hour can't wait to get my hands on it hope its got no defects...
[Nexus 4 General] xxbrentonxx:
"Shipment not on list provided to Customs for clearance. FedEx will correct and resubmit."

...

That status was made at 2:21pm, hope they get it all together and have my phone there ready to be delivered tomorrow.
[Nexus 4 General] TheKaptone:
Got mine this morning at 9:55 going to start playing runs with it very soon

First stop all in one tool kit
[Nexus 4 General] xxbrentonxx:
That status came up like ~2 hours after it had arrived in NSW, 1.5 hours after that it was cleared :laugh: Looks like ill get it tomorrow!
[Nexus 4 General] sayjeng:
Anyone got a pick notification from HN? Ordered mine on first day from QV branch in Vic. No news yet. Damn.
[Nexus 4 General] NIK516:
Sorry for the people waiting but dam this is great loll
[Nexus 4 General] sayjeng:
Yea rub it in why don't you? Lol. Think my spigen case will arrive earlier than my phone.
[Nexus 4 General] -Az-:
so the 16gb Nexus 4 i ordered from the play store has hw rev_10

in case anyone was wondering
[Nexus 4 General] ComfyTopHat:
Anyone had their 8gb shipped yet? Ordered 1st Feb, Still nothing :|
[Nexus 4 General] MrWulf:
Got mine in the post yesterday afternoon. Really enjoying having a play with it now. My Galaxy S1 seems ancient compared to it. I did unfortunately manage to churn through 300mb of mobile downloads over a few hours using Google Cloud Music. I'm not sure how viable it is to be doing that very often. Regardless, the phone is awesome.
[Nexus 4 General] aaurelio:
How did you get Google cloud music to work in Australia? I'm sure it's not out yet in Australia
[Nexus 4 General] ethanwhj:
ordered 1st feb morning 9:03, got it delivered yesterday at about 12:00
[Nexus 4 General] ComfyTopHat:
Eh, I ordered at about 5pm I think I might have to wait the 2-3 weeks :/ Damn
[Nexus 4 General] MrWulf:
It's not officially out in Australia, but you can use a VPN through an America location to register for google music. After the registration, you can upload music and use it to your heart's content. Have a google and you will be able to find a guide, the process is not very complicated. In fact I used an app called tunnel bear and did the registration straight from my phone. You can't, unfortunately, use the google play store to buy music just yet.

---------- Post added at 08:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:41 AM ----------

Try checking the FedEx tracking site with your order number (the fedex number is the numbers after the dot of the google play order number). It will tell you if it has shipped or not, and when to expect it. I doubt it will be 2-3 weeks. Mine came in 5 days.
[Nexus 4 General] ComfyTopHat:
Showing 'Not Found" :| Also do you find 8gb is enough storage?
[Nexus 4 General] Mani22223:
Guys can any one please help me in Suggesting the Best courier to send the Nexus 4 mobile from Australia to India?

My brother got the nexus 4 in his hand and want to send here..... For this how much it will cost?

Thanks in Advance.:)
[Nexus 4 General] yukarundeng:
Guys, can someone provide the total price for this n4? Including tax and shipping?
[Nexus 4 General] Hyperion82:
Nexus 4 (8GB) - A$349.00

Shipping (International Priority): A$19.99

Total: A$368.99

(includes GST A$33.54)
[Nexus 4 General] yukarundeng:
Thanks, I ordered mine, 16gb in total of 418,99 and the confirmation email says will be shipped in 2-3 weeks

Could be longer? Or even faster? Has anyone got it longer from what is listed on the confirmation email?
[Nexus 4 General] NIK516:
You will get it sooner I would say, mine said 2-3 weeks and I got it in less then a week.
[Nexus 4 General] joshuwa:
When I click proceed I get "An error occurred while processing your purchase. Please try again later."

It was working for me last night? It's been giving me this error all day, any ideas?
[Nexus 4 General] OniV2:
So, who here actually HAS an N4?

I have a Telstra SIM in my N4, and I get fairly good reception when out and about. I think the lowest I've hit so far is 3 bars (so, around -90dBm?), and I live out in quite a rural area.
[Nexus 4 General] xdatastic:
both me and the wife now have n4s. i'm on Telstra, the wife still on woolies optus. Reception is crap on all carriers where i live, ok at home but patchy around. i too live fairly rural. telstra is best of a bad bunch. the phone is awesome though.
[Nexus 4 General] gbymb:
While I was ordering mine, yesterday, I had this error too, but after a refresh it seemed to go through ok...well i got an email confirming the order.. I hope.. :-b

were you able make the order, eventually?
[Nexus 4 General] ken-ywk:
Anyone here bought it from US playstore? Is there any duty or tax imposed?
[Nexus 4 General] joshuwa:
Still can't get it to work! This is really sad I still can't give google my money. :crying:
[Nexus 4 General] Mischaseb:
No tax/duty on purchases less than $1000aud coming in to Australia. Only problem is that the LG warranty is not worldwide, so not valid in Aus if you buy from the US.
[Nexus 4 General] NIK516:
Maybe your visa card expired and you did not update your info on your Google account ?
[Nexus 4 General] joshuwa:
Everything is correct since I had it working on the 5th. I know what the problem was now since they are out of stock again :|
[Nexus 4 General] gbymb:
Well, I purchased on the play store on the morning of Feb 5, I had a reciept for the payment but not shipping confirmation.

So I wrote to support and the replay was:

"Orders are shipped based on the estimate in your order confirmation email. Once an order has been processed you'll receive a second ship confirmation email with your tracking number. It may take 24 hours for the package tracking to return any information for your tracking number.

If you have not received a package tracking number after the time quoted in your order confirmation email, please let us know.

According to our records, your order should ship by the evening of February 22."

So I guess the 2-3 weeks has kicked in......but I'm jumping outta my skin with anticipation!! :-b
[Nexus 4 General] Hayness:
I have the N4 on Telstra, I find the reception much better than my Galaxy Nexus. Able to access 3g where I couldnt before.

Love the phone overall.
[Nexus 4 General] ASavva:
Ok guys,

So I received my nexus 4 tonight at about 7pm and my initial thoughts were as follows: (I also thought I'd report on some of the complaints we've heard).

-slippery? I think not. Pointless complaint #1

-speaker crackles? No obvious difference between my galaxy s3: Complaint #2

-rear glass girly? Hell no! Complaint #3

The phone feels as premium as I've ever felt before. The weight is perfectly balanced and the glass feels very high quality.

Size wise, its a tad smaller than the galaxy s3,which I absolutely loved, but unfortunately was a bit big for my small (fat) fingers!

I could be dreaming, but the nexus 4 feels like it fits in the hand a little easier.

I think it's too early to notice any yellow spots on the screen, so I'll have to report back later on that.

Overall I think it's the best phone I've had to date and I think LG did a really good job of the phone. The people complaining about the build quality are obviously fans of complaining or are puffing the magic dragon whilst writing these reports.

Cheers guys, don't go flaming either.. Just giving my 2cents
[Nexus 4 General] Nark.GA60:
I've found the radios (both wifi and 3G) to be far superior to the One X that I had previously.

I get more reception and faster speeds.

Just switched from Telstra to Kogan today too. There's virtually no difference in speeds, so I'm a happy camper.
[Nexus 4 General] laser2k:
Over the Moon

Finally receive shipping confirmation for my 8gb Nexus 4 ordered on 31st of Jan at around 5:30pm AEST. :victory: . I'd upload a pic for proof but I'm in a hurry right now so I'll do it later.

Offtopic: First Post!!!
[Nexus 4 General] Clemoly:
ordered february 1 around 6pm. Shipping confirmation last night. 8gb model. In transit at Lantau Island. Estimated delivery :Mon 2/11/2013 6:00 pm
[Nexus 4 General] joshuwa:
16GB came back in stock this morning, I was sure to buy one straight away.:good:
[Nexus 4 General] OniV2:
I do think that the One X gets better Wi-Fi reception though. My girlfriend's One X will get full bars in our bedroom, whilst I only get 2 or 3.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 General] Nark.GA60:
Is that on Sense or AOSP? Sense is known to report higher bars of reception compared to AOSP.
[Nexus 4 General] OniV2:
That'd be on Sense 4+, yes.
[Nexus 4 General] Hyperion82:
Shipping info

+1 here. ordered my 8gb model on 31 Jan, got it today (11/2/2013). It was shipped on 7/2.
[Nexus 4 General] Nucleotide:
Good news - the wireless charging Orb is in the Play Store - possibly available very soon - https://play.google.com/store/devices/details/Nexus_4_Wireless_Charger?id=nexus_4_wireless_charger

It's available in the US Play Store right now so hopefully it's not far off from being available in Aus.
[Nexus 4 General] yukarundeng:
Any news of those who ordered n4 on Feb 5th?

I was asking my friend's help to order, first his money had been taken for his credit card account, then today Google likely returned back the same amount of money as it is taken before

Can anybody please explain what's happening?

Regards
[Nexus 4 General] gbymb:
I saw that my money had been returned too. mine was ordered on the 5th. All I know is that they said they would charge the shipping when the carrier had confirmed the postage cost??!! maybe the pending $$ on the credit card only stays pending for 7 days??
[Nexus 4 General] joshuwa:
From what I've read the money is held for a certain amount of days then it's automatically released if the order hasn't shipped, when they do ship it they will gladly take the money back off the card.
[Nexus 4 General] yukarundeng:
So, will my order eventually being shipped?

Anyone got answer ?? :(
[Nexus 4 General] joshuwa:
It will be sent unless you intentionally canceled it, you can check status at play.google.com/store/account and wallet.google.com.

Also has anyone that ordered on the 9th get a shipping notification yet?
[Nexus 4 General] 6i9:
Does anyone have 4.2.2 via ota?
[Nexus 4 General] xdatastic:
nope, i got impatient and adb sideloaded the update on both mine and the wife's phones. at least one aussie said they did get ota on whirlpool forum.
[Nexus 4 General] yukarundeng:
I haven't received any notification since I ordered, Feb 5th
[Nexus 4 General] xdatastic:
it might not work for you but try going to the fedex tracking reference site and put in the Google play order number, only the digits after the dot in the middle. fedex might have shipping details even if google havent confirmed it to you.

https://www.fedex.com/fedextrack/?cntry_code=au&tab=2
[Nexus 4 General] gbymb:
Mine from the feb 5 order showed up on the fedex tracking.....estimated delivery date 19th!!! woo hoo!

and I still havn't had any peep from google about anything.......I hope it's correct!
[Nexus 4 General] yukarundeng:
I tracked using FedEx tracker, it didn't show anything :( like no order and stuff

When did you check it?

Hope mine will be arrived at 19th too, praying to God

Hahaha
[Nexus 4 General] gbymb:
So you took the last string of digits after the "." pasted into the 'enter up to 30' box.

Didn't put 'ship date' or 'account number',

chose destination country 'Oz', and my postcode.....hit track..AND....

[Nexus 4 General] DarkRyoushii:
anyone with the 4.2.2 OTA.. any improvements in the signal/data speeds area? I am trying to find a way to install the .44 baseband/radio at the moment but wondering if it's all worth it.

EDIT: Running Cyanogenmod so it will probably break certain things anyway.. not worth it.
[Nexus 4 General] mrxd:
Im running cm10.1 with the new boot loader and baseband with no issues. Just flash them with fastboot.
[Nexus 4 General] DarkRyoushii:
Flashed it and holy crap, immediately noticed that there was no longer small lag spikes when I went to open menu. BUT I doubt they are related at all unless it was bootloader related. Either way fastboot flashed them from the factory image without issue :) Didn't notice that CM10.1 had hit 4.2.2 already
[Nexus 4 General] Teknozeus:
Hi all,

Just asking a somewhat silly question but...when I plug my phone in to charge, shouldn't the screen turn on? Inversely, when I disconnect the charger, shouldn't the screen also turn on? There is nothing wrong with the phone per se, just having come from a samsung it seems natural to have your screen turn on when either plugging it in to charge or removing the charger.

I finally convinced myself to buy a Nexus 4 and a Bumper, which I bought yesterday on Mar 22, 2013 8:28:15 PM PDT. Because I'm new at this (and impatient) can anyone give an estimate of how long my Nexus 4 and Bumper should say Pending?

Also, my email with the receipt doesn't say an estimated time, it says "Ships by March 26, 2013." Why?

New Nexus version: added nipples

What better way to introduce myself, than to talk about nipples!

A slight redesign of the Nexus back has introduced a couple of changes, most notably a small nipple on each corner of the ack of the phone, so that the phone has a slight gap when sitting on a table.

Has anyone with a recent delivery received this updated version of the Nexus 4? Someone already confirmed the change on the WP Nexus 4 forum.

http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1b6t4u/nexus_4_updated_with_nipples/

http://androidheadlines.com/2013/03/nexus-4-shipping-with-a-slightly-updated-design.html

Two or three Aussie confirmations here, so far: http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=2058246&p=39

I suppose this will mean nipple-friendly cases will be needed - or maybe not, if the nips work as intended (some people may not need a bumper)!
[Nexus 4 General] ebhsimon:
I've had two since March 22nd, and both have the nipples. They're absolutely tiny though, and the old case will certainly work with the revised model.
[Nexus 4 General] Mighty Arceus493:
Mine's coming on Tuesday (long weekend is killing me :( ) and I ordered it on the 23rd of March so hopefully I'll get it with the nips!
[Nexus 4 General] funkyblue04:
I have nipples. 16gb.Phone was received on Monday. Phone is good but battery life sucks. Not much to be excited about.

---------- Post added at 08:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 PM ----------

Mine also arrived with 4.2.2.

Give the battery some time to settle in. This phone has easily the best battery life of any phone I've ever had.

I've yet to see a smartphone, other than the note 2 last a solid day.

I want to use on the way to work, during the day and going home followed by at night without charging.

Its been a week battery life is still bad.

Hello frends pl help i am going to buy this phone from Techriffic.com for 333$+77$ is this website good?? pl help

u can also suggest me some more good sites wer i can get this phone to the cheapest price.

thanks a lot..
[Nexus 4 General] hungyhungyhippo:
for 333 + 77 it ends up being more expensive than the google play store itself, you're better off getting it from the play store http://play.google.com and that way you have warranty with google.
[Nexus 4 General] wmoore:
$333 + $77 = $410. I paid $418.99 from the Play Store inc shipping.

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:39 PM ----------

I think the battery life is pretty good. I find I can go 1.5 - 2 days without charging. I wouldn't call myself a heavy user but still this is significantly better that I could get with my HTC Sensation.

It is safe, but you cannot ship to India via the Australian Google Play directly. The address must be in Australia.

Is it not available on Indian Google Play?
