No BO e-mail doesn't mean anything special, just like getting a BO e-mail means nothing. Seems more people w/ BO e-mails have received tracking numbers than those with no BO e-mail over the last 48 hours.
[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
Where did you hear that?

[Nexus 4 General] lyricez:
Hear? Several people have posted in this thread and the main one that they got a tracking number after getting a BO e-mail, some less than an hour after receiving it.
[Nexus 4 General] crawlgsx:
Yeah... given the crazy way things have gone / not been handled, I seriously doubt that.
[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
I was just trying to make you feel better..I doubt it too.

Dam, I just found out that my money is no longer on hold. It is back in my account. It was a little assurance to me that Google had my money. Not any more... Oh well.

First weekend in a while that I can't wait for Monday to come. Stupid Google making me want to go back to work, sheesh.
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
I just want my damn Nexus 4 already. Is that too much to ask?

Backordered baby!
[Nexus 4 General] crawlgsx:
Yes, yes it is. You can't have it, Google won't even tell me if I'm getting one, so by principle you can't have one either. :silly:
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
This sucks. It better not take the full 3 weeks.

Backordered baby!

Here is what the Google employee told me about the changes order date:
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
Ordered my 16gb at 10:13am PST and they put me through so much crap!

Backordered baby!
[Nexus 4 General] BigAtrain:
Checking in still in alleged back-order land. Play still says 13th shipping on the 15th. :beer:
[Nexus 4 General] Docavelli:
I know it's not the same company but the N10 is back in stock. Maybe some hope???
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
Same here but from confirmed bo land

Backordered baby!

Now I know why google doesnt have a store like the fruit phone. They would either lose it or forget wher they built it during the grand opening....WINNING!!!!!!!!
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
Same except they changed my order date to the 17
[Nexus 4 General] MusicMan374:
This is what they have told me since Thursday evening, I don't believe it one bit. I still have no shipping email or backorder email or confirmation email. Order date changed to 11/17 though.

I never got a confirmation email but my order date changed. (and CS said my order was legit, I got charged and everything at 8:35)
[Nexus 4 General] crawlgsx:
Weird how many different "lack of status" we have here.

Mine is very close to yours, same order time. No confirmation email (or any other). CS said order was good. but my order date still shows 11/13.
[Nexus 4 General] N!ghtgold:
I'm in Utah also.. I wonder if they will send us our phonesat the sane time? I'm tired of being in limbo have called almost all the tmobilr stores around slc they are out the funny thing is I called one in sugar house and the dude told me its not out yet lol that was hella funny
[Nexus 4 General] crawlgsx:
I was thinknig the same thing lol.

Its probably just a hold though, not a "charge".
[Nexus 4 General] kenfly:
Its a pre auth hold on the funds. Doesn't actually get taken till shipment
[Nexus 4 General] amdhunter:
What a frikken fail. Google can go **** themselves.
[Nexus 4 General] diablonyc2:
SOOOOO Pissed off. It states it is not available now. I had it in my cart 20+ times....compter, phone, etc. ALWAYS ERRORED OUT! Freakin Google. What the HELL.
[Nexus 4 General] djkinetic:
My card hasnt been charged yet, but google play shows mine shipping out the 15th on wallet
[Nexus 4 General] fatttire:
Anybody get a confirmation email? I didn't get one and it's not showing up in google wallet :eek:

I did get the confirmation web page though after the order went through but stupidly closed the window and didn't bother to write down a confirmation # or anything. yikes

Im kind of glad. Now all of the ones who "missed out" will get to read the entertaining posts about how people are seeing issues with the Nexus 4 and all of the return and warranty replacement fun.

Congrats to the ones who got theirs.
[Nexus 4 General] Saman65:
it seems their canada website sold out earlier than the us

F... Google

I guess they had only a couple hundreds in stock just to get attention and spread the news that they sold out in minutes!

f... their politics :D
[Nexus 4 General] joeski27:
Exactly the same thing kept happening to me. I'm still trying to get the N10 32gb but still no luck getting the Wallet popup to connect w/o errors
[Nexus 4 General] Lancez:

[Nexus 4 General] fatttire:
darn, no confirmation on google wallet or email, though the page said it went through. should i order another 8gb? holy cow!

[Nexus 4 General] glenroebuck:
I got charged still sitting at the sceen with the cc charge info though so does this mean I got one?
[Nexus 4 General] dmoses1969:
Yeah, that was ridiculous. Reminds me of HP Touchpad buying frenzy. I had 16gb in cart and kept getting errors and then it was removed from my cart and went back to "coming soon".

Guess I will look for a different phone.
[Nexus 4 General] Uh60m Pilot:
For some reason my Play Store updated my order yesterday. The order date changed from the 13th to the 17th however the status has not changed. It is still indicating "sent to Google" and shipping date is estimated for the 15th. My cc is still pending and I did receiving the backorder email of death :). The odd part is that a month ago I had to exchange my nexus 7. It was shipped to me and I returned the original one. That order updated too and now has an order date of the 17th too my cc also has a pending charge for the N7. Hopefully they don't ship me another one.

Has anyone else had Google Wallet update like this? I think their system is having a heart attack :silly:

**Just noticed others are having this same issue. I am wondering if Google is prepping for the second wave of shipments. Has anyone else had their order date update to anything before the 17th? If so what date? My though is that Google has changed to dates for the second wave and will plan on shipping with the 48 hours again. Did any of you who have "backordered" listed on your play store have your order date change? If it did not then I suspect I am correct and we can expect shipment NLT Wed of next week.

What are your thoughts?
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
Yeah that's actually why I emailed them to ask what that was about, didn't really answer my question though.

---------- Post added at 04:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:48 PM ----------

No my wallet hasn't changed a pixel, just the order date on my play store.
[Nexus 4 General] mb3030:
I mentioned this a few screens back, but I'm one of the people that got a bo email and got shipping information. My phone and bumper is due in NY tomorrow for delivery.
[Nexus 4 General] kayateia:
I ordered a Bluetooth folding keyboard and stand from Amazon last night so I'd have something with a valid tracking number to look forward to. :D

Still no update on the N4, but at least I've still got my NS (slow and battery unstable as she is sometimes these days).
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
I'm so jealous. I got back ordered for real.. As far as I know. :(
[Nexus 4 General] Nimche:
Still waiting for two 16GB for me and my friend and a bumper. It was ordered on 8:35 PST and nothing and no change date. Still on 13...

I am coming here after dealing with Sony mobile for so long for mis-dates and other issues, but unfortunately I see the same issue here as well.
[Nexus 4 General] abo.saud:
I just notice that my order date changed to 17th Nov. Why is that?
[Nexus 4 General] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Yup, none of the stores in Logan got any to sell :'(
[Nexus 4 General] crawlgsx:
Thanks to Google, your guess is as good as the rest of us. I'd wonder why mine hasn't changed.

Google really needs to pick up the communication a few notches.
[Nexus 4 General] N!ghtgold:
I'm heading to Idaho for thanksgiving if I don't get my phone by then I will see if I can find it up there
[Nexus 4 General] Ameri-CAIN:
My date was changed to the 14th. I haven't received any news since my confirmation email @ 08:34 on the 13th. I ordered @ 08:33 PST on the 13th. After your email I am just thinking that the date changes are that the store has some meaningless glitch in it.
[Nexus 4 General] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Hell if the whole Salt Lake Valley doesn't have one, I don't see any where in Idaho having one either. I bet only the major west coast cities and the eastern metro cities got them.
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
Same boat, hoping for the same thing.
[Nexus 4 General] adamhlj:
Is that the T-Mobile store on 2100 south and 700 east? What a bunch of maroons.

---------- Post added at 11:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:02 AM ----------

I moved to Minneapolis from salt lake last year. When T-Mobile's twitter account announced that they were on sale, I went to a tmo store and they said they weren't on sale yet. And Minneapolis is a much larger city than SLC, lol.

Yes my order date is still the 13th. Level 1 limbo sucks.
[Nexus 4 General] BigAtrain:
Mine is still on the 13th. With the holidays and my office closing early most of the week, even if it does ship Monday I might not get it since I shipped it there.
[Nexus 4 General] crawlgsx:
Same on all accounts.
[Nexus 4 General] abo.saud:
my order date changed from 13 to 17 and the status changed from pre-ordered to excp. shipping 15th

How come shipping before order :confused: this is just crazy
[Nexus 4 General] Nimche:
^^^That. What we really hopped has been destroyed by Google. What a bizarre way to start Thanks giving week, and not sure about everyone but me for one, thought I would have the phone by TG to show off :D Maybe I take a printed copy of the phone as proof.:eek:
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
I am not sure, I re-emailed the guy that responded to my first email since he was so vague about what it meant, all he told me was I should expect shipping information soon, but he didn't address the order date change, so I sent another one asking him what that it is about. Ill keep you guys updated on what he says.
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
Did you guys order 8s or 16s?

Backordered baby!
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
I ordered 1 16. Got the BO email, ordered on the 13 at 1300 EST and now play store reads that I ordered on the 16th, wallet still shows the 13, and my bank still has the charges pending, I'm gonna bet it will go away tomorrow.
[Nexus 4 General] lowrider262:
16 gb... Got the bo email... Play store still says shipping on the 15th... And my money was put back on my card. Weird thing is I ordered at 12:08 CST on the 13th and now its saying order was placed on the 14th on my play store transactions page:screwy:

man im getting so sick of waiting.

Google should freakin inform us about our purchase!

Email us, write something on PS, ship it! do something!

Update us on our products! stop making us frustrated and stressed!

but doesnt mean im gonna cancel my order tho.
[Nexus 4 General] Nickel Dime Bay:
I wonder how many they actually had in stock on day one.
[Nexus 4 General] BigAtrain:
- 16 gb

- confirmation email 13th

- BO email 15th

- play store says 13th order and 15th ship
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
I agree with everything you said

Backordered baby!
[Nexus 4 General] lowrider262:
If I don't hear something back by tomorrow, I'm just gonna say f**k it and cancel my order and buy an S3 off craigslist.
[Nexus 4 General] ctowne:
Probably 6 or 7. I think 8 would be way too high of an estimate..

Backordered baby!
[Nexus 4 General] varshil:
I gt this info from my frnd working in google, ca that they had arnd 10k pieces on day one! But most of the devices were either broken or had some fault! They sold out perfect number of phones! But due to faulty phones they made most of the people to stay waiting !

And also he suggested to not to buy this phone due to cheap quality manufacturing by lg! But i hv already ordered n gt a BO!!
[Nexus 4 General] Hero_Guy:
Just curious, why do people not spell out certain words entirely when a) autocorrect does it automatically and its more work to input it into your dictionary and b) I don't take anyone serious when they spell like that.
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:

[Nexus 4 General] jMollys:

[Nexus 4 General] BigAtrain:
Lumia 920 is going to start looking better and better as the week goes on.
[Nexus 4 General] lowrider262:
Possibly by a serial or production # for each phone that would indicate which batch it came from. If they found a few with the same flaw and realized they were all from a certain batch they might have recalled the whole batch at the last minute. This is all in theory by the way
[Nexus 4 General] Hero_Guy:
I'm just saying the message you are trying to put out for us would be better understood if everything was spelled out instead if abbreviated, especially if you only take two letters out of a 5-6 letter word. I don't want to start a fight but I also don't want to have to decrypt your code :):p

Such a sexy phone but the lack of apps put me off :(

Why couldn't Nokia go with android? :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] d4ft:
I'm going to take this with a pinch of salt, but I wonder why google hasn't revealed the quantity of the stock that was sold. And if what your friend said is true, most of the people who get their phones before the second batch are truly screwed. I guess time will tell.
[Nexus 4 General] varshil:
Google has bought phones from lg so they check whether they are proper or not!

And i guess second batch is very far!! First they need to ship all the current orders which will be within 2 weeks!!
[Nexus 4 General] jMollys:
Excellent point! I like your critical thinking skills!
[Nexus 4 General] varshil:
Lol ok ok!! Well we here in india always type in a short language! U know you can save A lot of time!! Haha

If only lg provides better phones now, we ll see them soon! If not, then 3 weeks can be extended too!! So we should hate lg And not google!!
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
Would it be possible that LG just sends the phone s in some sort of plastic wrap then Google puts it in the nexus boxes st the shipping plant? Might be a bit out there but its possible, wouldn't make much sense to do it that way though.
[Nexus 4 General] varshil:
Lg obviously sends them in boxes!! They are not that mad!! Lol
[Nexus 4 General] tysj:
No.....just no...
[Nexus 4 General] lowrider262:
Lol thanks. I work in manufacturing/ shipping. That's pretty much how its done industry-wide
[Nexus 4 General] varshil:
Nokia has some ego problem unfortunately!!
[Nexus 4 General] CiViCKiDD:
So basically, Google got all the defective phones but T-Mobile and all the other re-sellers got the good phones? Not saying it isn't impossible, but if it were true I'd be amused.

BTW my bro-in-law types with vowels missing in his words also (came here from india 10 years ago) and it drives me nuts! lol.
[Nexus 4 General] BigAtrain:
This wait wouldn't be so bad if my infuse 4g wouldn't be broken. Thank God my brother just got the note 2 and gave me his inspire.
[Nexus 4 General] varshil:
T-mobile phones are defective as well!! Check the other threads too!! And i guess t-mobile bought phones from google only!! Only an indian can understand an another indian!! Lol.. dont worry one day for sure you will be able to understand your bro!! Lol all the best!! Haha
[Nexus 4 General] d4ft:
I'm already pretty pessimistic about the condition of my phones even before they arrive. Hawrdware faults like the crackling noise and scratches anywhere don't seem that uncommon anymore.
[Nexus 4 General] aphlipot:
So it must be LG just doesn't seal the boxes when they send them to Google, and the other re sellers, then they are supposed to seal them and check them.
[Nexus 4 General] palmboy5:
If you want to save a lot of time, you can stop doing "!!" after every sentence.
[Nexus 4 General] varshil:
Agreed! Hope we didn't make a mistake by ordering Nexus 4.

[Nexus 4 General] crawlgsx:
I'm loving mine, but it isn't making me any less aggravated with Google.
[Nexus 4 General] vmherpin:
Google Play customer service is useless..

Here's my info - Order Date: November 13, 2012 8:36:03 AM UTC-8

I received my Google Play Order Receipt at 10:53 AM CT (I am in Wisconsin).

My Account in the Play Store - Shipping estimate: November 15, 2012

My bank was pending the charge since purchase, and this Friday the pending was removed and I was not charged.

I have NOT received a back order email, nor an email with tracking information. I don't think I've ever been so frustrated and confused with purchasing something online.:eek:

I ordered the Nexus 4 16GB. Every time I call Google Play, I get different responses. One individual told me this past Thursday (Nov 15) that my order would definitely ship Friday morning.. and it didn't.:rolleyes: I've just been told to play the waiting game and hope for a tracking number. This is complete BS. I guess understandable with the demand and all. Hey at least they're doing a "courtesy" and refunding the shipping charge. That's the LEAST they can do. Why not include a bumper case with the phones as well? That would cheer me up for sure haha.

One of the customer service reps claimed his phone was on back order as well. He said he wished they would allow some kind of lists to be accessible to each rep so they could advise customers as to whether their orders were back ordered or not. A unique idea that would definitely be helpful, but unfortunately he said they refused to do so. These are his words, not mine. I spoke with this customer service rep earlier this morning.

All in all - Google currently has me in this state of nothingness with my phone purchase, similar to what many others are experiencing. My mood personally is something I can only describe as wanting to punch an infant in the face. Yeah.. that sounds about right.
[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
The only change I had is that in the play store list where it shows all your app purchases, devices, etc.. It said the 13th but now says the 17th. Inside wallet though everything looks the same. I don't know if out means anything but I find myself searching for clues I guess.

What is his job that gives him so much info.

While I believe the 10,000 units could be possible and some of the initial run damaged or not up to spec but I do not at all believe the thing about lg quality. It is pure made up bull****.. that could be an opinion or a lie but surely not a fact, their it is meaningless.

This is all just heresay. Someone heard that someone said this, that.. Blah.... If they was an official statement from Google saying these things it would be different.

If this was the case wouldn't they be reassuring potential buyers to keep them from buying another phone? Black Friday? It is a big shopping day in retail stores. I am not so sure it would matter so much online unless they were to offer a special deal.
