Only just started working (at 19:00):

"The instruction data for this shipment have been provided by the sender to DHL electronically"

Think we need the next step to see where it's coming from.
[Nexus 4 General] aletto:
I just received the shipping notice 45 minutes ago, ordered 5/12/12 around 10 pm UTC+2
[Nexus 4 General] xerivor:
aaaand finally received a shipping mail at 19:32 oh **** yeah! :o
[Nexus 4 General] flakinarist:
The ones who already received their phone:

How long does shipping take after getting the DHL-mail?

I got the mail around 14 o'clock and still hope to receive the phone tomorrow...
[Nexus 4 General] aletto:
Yes and yes.
[Nexus 4 General] biandtlp:
I've received shipping mail!! I'm happy.

Order: 4.12 at 20.00
[Nexus 4 General] Harry Pothead:
Yay, Feucht is only about 300km air-line distance from my home. In that case I should get mine tomorrow *knock on wood*
[Nexus 4 General] miniAndroidian:
Ordered at 28.12 and i got an eMail before a few hours that i can pick it up in the Media Markt. Now I'm SOOO happy :D
[Nexus 4 General] quicksandf:
Ordered my N4-16GB on 04.12.2012 22:22 MEZ on Google Play with an 5-6 weeks estimate. The status changed on 02.01.2013 to pre-ordered and I didn't receive a shipping eMail yet :(

Edit: Thanks for adding my data to the Google Spreadsheet! I wrote the date in the German format, so the status change date is second of January and not first of February... :)
[Nexus 4 General] jkoljo:
****, my friend just came by. Guess what. He had bought a new damn phone, Nexus 4, from Finland. He got it from verkkokauppa.com, they have apparently had these phones since 22.12, in stock. I am happy that my phone is in DHL's hands, but I am still angry at Google.
[Nexus 4 General] Blisken:
I checked my CC transactions and saw that Google Play has already charged my card today with the amount. But I am still waiting for the shipping email. After reading various posts from last month, I guess Google is always late in sending out shipping emails. Sometimes people have also received their GooNex without any shipping mails!!!

So all those still waiting, cheer up!!! there is still hope...:good::D
[Nexus 4 General] batano:
Would Not be the First time that the device is delivered before the shipping Mail

BTW is it shipped with Priority Mail (DHL Express) or Normal DHL shipping (tracking Number starting with P)

Sent from my HTC using Board Express
[Nexus 4 General] Vangelis13:
I saw 1-3 days. Got mine in two. Depends on where you are. You could very well get it tomorrow, yes.

Worth the wait.. ;)
[Nexus 4 General] Blisken:
and there you go..finally received the shipment mail at 21:03.

Shipping progress at 20 % - The shipment is being scanned in the parcel center of origin!!

expecting it in my hands tomo!! wow!! finally the wait would end!!:D

good luck to all those still waiting!!

If the 5/6 week is shipped today, when they'll ship the 6/7 order?
[Nexus 4 General] saptarshi.goswami:
Got shipping mail.............:highfive:
[Nexus 4 General] Harry Pothead:
When you track it it says "Produkt/Service: DHL PAKET (parcel)" and the tracking number is numbers only. I would say it is regular DHL shipping.
[Nexus 4 General] DocSnyd3r:
Hi I also got 5/6 weeks but no mail yet are others still waiting ordered dec 4th about 8pm.

I've added you.
[Nexus 4 General] Harry Pothead:
DHL does deliver packages on Saturday, thus you have a good chance of receiving one or both of them tomorrow :) The closer you live to Feucht (which is adjacent to Nuremburg, Bavaria) the better the chances of course...
[Nexus 4 General] iFinCyde:
Thanks!

In the official general shipping thread someone wrote that he contacted google support and someone there said that if it changed the date they have a device and it should normally not take longer than a week to send out the devices.

(what a long sentence, hope u get my point :P)
[Nexus 4 General] 3RMD:
Sounds great. I hope they have completed the 4-5 and 5-6 weekers this week, and start delivering the 6-7weekers next week ;)

@Harry Pothead: The standard DHL shipping? Never seen a DHL vehicle on sunday.. :D Or only in big citys?
[Nexus 4 General] TylerDurden1999:
Has any1 ordered it from Saturn.de?I order 1 from there and wondered if i will receive it in January.
[Nexus 4 General] xopah:
Yeah, I preordered one from Verkkokauppa in hopes for them to lower the price. But 600€ for N4 (8Gb) is a no go for me!

Having mine delivered as we speak to a friend in Germany.

Ordered 4 december.

estimated delivery time 5-6 weeks

Have DHL codes now
[Nexus 4 General] 3RMD:
A friend of mine got one from Saturn. Unfortunately it was a present of his mum, so he doesn't know when it was ordered/delivered :(
[Nexus 4 General] claudios91:
My experience, ordered 4.12.2012@5:47 German time, changed status on 2.01.13, no shipping email yet!

People who have received shipping mails today, when you go to DHL webpage, do you see that the phone has been picked up by DHL? Mine is only showing that the shipping info has been provided to DHL. So my phone has not been picked up yet.
[Nexus 4 General] Harry Pothead:
Tomorrow is Saturday, not Sunday :P. Standard DHL packages are delivered on Saturdays. And I wouldn't call my hometown a big city. It has less than 40k inhabitants.

These status updates are often delayed, I wouldn't worry about it yet. Just have another look tomorrow morning.
[Nexus 4 General] 3RMD:
I've misread your post Saturday is clear. :D
[Nexus 4 General] abufaka:

[Nexus 4 General] DocSnyd3r:
Hi,

received the mail 10pm and tracking isn't working yet. DHL says can't find the numer.
[Nexus 4 General] aletto:
My Nexus has been picked up already. It should be on its way from Feucht.
[Nexus 4 General] DocSnyd3r:
Hi, did your traking link from the email work or is there an alternative site to check?
[Nexus 4 General] aletto:
the tracking number does work (for me)
[Nexus 4 General] jkoljo:
My tracking number works, but the devices (two) have not been picked up yet.
[Nexus 4 General] mbfaay:
Does anybody know if they work at Google on Saturdays?

Would be nice if they would continue the delivery flow and we (6-7 weekers) don't have to wait till after the weekend for updates.

I am still hoping to receive my Nexus somewhere next week (ordered 11-12).
[Nexus 4 General] Gryx:
The 6-7 weekers have an expected delivery date of the end of January. Still time enough. I don't expect those to be shipped. Only 4 dec orders got shipped.
[Nexus 4 General] Lorthirk:
5 dec as well, for sure
[Nexus 4 General] kinglargo:
For those who receives their phone, is it the new model? Without the glitter on the back?

There's a model without the glitter? o_O'

Mine has it. (MM Pre-order 15 November, delivered 27 December)
[Nexus 4 General] scandalousk:
No! it's simply some misinformation that has been spread around too much. It started because of someone making up a bullsht story about the phone not having a glitter back, which has already been proven false. Look at the comment above you explaining the whole thing.
[Nexus 4 General] beNNik:
My sister ordered on 5.12 and her phone arrived this morning.

I ordered on 4.12 i got my message from google about 4 hours earlier then she did.

My phone did not arrive so i called dhl and they said google only announced that they will send it.

Google what are you doing? seriously? both phones are supposed to be send to the same address.

I buyed a Nexus 4 16GB on getgoods.de on 13 November 2012 (399€). The status is still: "Bestellung ist in Bearbeitung" (Order is being processed). Is there anyone who has taken it there?
[Nexus 4 General] Harry Pothead:
Got my tracking email yesterday at 4:30pm, i knew that it was leaving Feucht at around 9pm and around 10am today i knew it was in the delivery truck. So yes, tracking information was helpful in my case.

[Nexus 4 General] Diazepamo:
Hello guys,

mine was delivered by DHL at around 3pm today. I didnt get any confirmation email by Google or DHL. Status in the Wallet still "Pending" (Ausstehend) and at Play Store 03.01.2013 pre-ordered.

Its the 8GB Model. I ordered it at 04.12.2012 at 20:48h

I'm really happy it came home today, I didn't expect that. :victory:
[Nexus 4 General] aletto:
received my nexus a few minutes ago. It's beautiful! DHL hasn't updated the status, so if you didn't get your phone yet, don't lose hope!
[Nexus 4 General] batano:
Just got the Info that the Package is in the Local Post station ready to be load into the Truck.

It will Arrive Monday but me and the friend who ordered it aren't really sure if he inserted his Address or my Postbox we'll see but for Protocol it will Arrive Monday!

So Monday is Nexus day! (at least for them who got a Shipping mail not guarantee because i am only speculating with help of my experience :D )
[Nexus 4 General] 3RMD:
You can check the adress in your wallet ;)
[Nexus 4 General] batano:
haha Didn't think about that :D first Priority is that it's somewhere where it is secure :P hes Living 20 Minutes away and After one month of waiting it isn't that much ("das macht den braten auch nicht fett") but checking it tells me that i have to wait 20 Minutes more :P
[Nexus 4 General] draugaz:
Should be about right, the same as mine.

If we don't get our phones from current batch, the next (not very large) german play store batch was produced today (about 2000 units or so). So we can expect them to arrive roughly 2 weeks later, around 20.1 or so.
[Nexus 4 General] philidor:
I hope they continue to ship. I order 6 December, 6-7 weeks, now they are shipping some 5-6 weekers, after, all of us are 6-7 weekers.... If they don't continue to ship I think will be difficult to deliver 16 December orders withing ETA. From my 6 December and a 16 December ETA there are only 10 days and in a week they don't have completely shiped all 4-5 December!

Hope they continue like in US and UK...

I'm writing from Italy,ordered mine at German Play Store ,thanks to a friend living there.

Order placed on Dec 9,and accepted as 7-8 weeker order.

Status date changed on Jan 3,but still "Pre ordered".

Inviato da Galaxy Nexus con Tapatalk 2.0
[Nexus 4 General] xdev1:
Wrong, there are still 4-5 weekers waiting. I have ordered 2 Nexus 4 on Google Play on 4th of December, 4-5 weeks.

One 16 GB model with order timestamp December 4, 2012 5:57:23 PM UTC+1, and one 8 GB model a few minutes later with order timestamp December 4, 2012 6:04:33 PM UTC+1.

For weeks for both devices Googles supposedly automated status reply listed the evening of January 5th as most likely shipping date.

Both orders got status updates on the 2nd of January and on the 3rd. Only the 8GB model got an update on the 4th with shipping notification. The 16GB one, I intend to use for myself, is still in limbo.

Tracking for the 8GB model just started working today morning, so far DHL has just received eletronic shipping data, it has not even been scanned in the parcel center of origin...

Interestingly, today when I inquired shipping status with Googles supposedly automated system for both devices to double check, I didn't get an automated response. I got a real reply from someone who wrote my device should have been shipped by now and would pass this on to his specialist for checking.

So every 4-5 weeker still in limbo, I recommend contacting Google with the shipping checker link.
[Nexus 4 General] philidor:
I know we 6-7 weekers have to wait... but what I think is that they have to continue to ship, they can't stop now ... they are shiping (with google random system) orders of 5th December.... there are (pre)orders until 16th December.... other 11 days and ETA for the last are the first days of February.... not 2 full days of orders completed in 1 week... and if they stop...

Your situation is an error, they "forget" (I hope for you that all will be solved fast) to ship your 16gb... and I think that all remaining 4-5 weekers have to contact google becouse "maybe" they are not waiting... they are in limbo..,

Inviato dal mio GT-P3100 con Tapatalk 2
[Nexus 4 General] xdev1:
Yep my 16GB order is an error, I just got email from Google telling me they are working on my case and will be in touch soon. That is at least reassuring. Yeah me, I get to experience the whole Nexus 4 fun, missed first order phase due to checkout bug, got stuck in limbo on 2nd order processing. The 5 week window runs out on 8th of January, will be interesting. Maybe I get lucky and when my 16GB finally gets here, I'll get to experience the highly praised RMA process too, because of buzzing in earpiece or major light bleed or maybe even DOA.
[Nexus 4 General] andryyyy:
Anyone else noticed they deliver different kind of cables with the Nexus? :P

Not an important fact, just noticed .. my brothers cable is longer but a bit thinner. Both 2012/12/Korean.
[Nexus 4 General] batano:
isn't that a "normal" mass production failure? i had the same experience with the iPhone cables back in 2009
[Nexus 4 General] andryyyy:
I guess they just buy whereever it costs less. :) Whatever, never had this before and nothing to care about! :)
[Nexus 4 General] doctorm:
same situation here,from Friday 4th my order still shows only in dhl ''The instruction data for this shipment have been provided by the sender to DHL electronically''. so i do not believe i will get it in monday.
[Nexus 4 General] fonixin:
Hi guys,

anybody got an idea, when will it be possible to (pre)order one again on german play? According to all those delays it might be in February. :(
[Nexus 4 General] Killuminati91:
Same. What is really weird though is that I cant access the tracking via wallet or on my phone, both state that the tracking number is invalid.

If i use the link from the mail I can see that its at 20% but even if I use the NUMBER from the mail I get an invalid tracking ID.
[Nexus 4 General] Blisken:
I think the number that they have specified in the shipping email is the 'Shipment reference number' and not the 'shipment number'.
[Nexus 4 General] Harry Pothead:
yes, the number you get sent via mail is the reference number.

[Nexus 4 General] claudios91:
is your status change on playstore the 2 or 3 jan?! Seems that google shipped first to those who have status changed on 3 jan!
[Nexus 4 General] xdev1:
This order had status change on January 2nd, January 3rd and now January 7th. According to tracking it was actually shipped on January 4th, the system simply failed to send the shipping mail, thus it is already at 80% tracking now that I got the confirmation. The other order had status change on January 2nd, 3rd and 4th, tracking still at 20%.

Even though Google play says it has charged my credit card for both, so far I do not see a statement for neither. So don't bother checking your bank account repeatedly, shipping mail will probably come first. Good luck!
[Nexus 4 General] claudios91:
Really thanks for the info. I'm still with the status change on 2 jan. Maybe today will start new shipping turn. Hope so. Congrats and enjoy yours nexus 4!
[Nexus 4 General] Gryx:
Date in play store doesn't make any difference... Only thing you can do is wait until you get a shipping mail. Sometimes you receive the device without any status change.

I thought there was a big batch for german play store? But i don't see many shippings here...

I've been watching their "traffic lights" for stock and today it turned red (shipping in 4-7 weeks) and now it looks like they don't reply to emails and their contact form doesn't work. Anyone got any experience with handyattacke.de?

Glad I paid via PayPal so a dispute isn't a problem but of course I'm going to wait for a while longer than 3 working days.

[Nexus 4 General] xopah:
Hi guys again.

My shippment is at 60% so it might still be delivered today!

A Question though....

Even if it is delivered it is in German I live in Finland... So, do you guys know if it is possible to re-ship ship out again with the currier that are carrying it home to you? And do you have any elevated guess on the prices to ship it to Finland then?

Is it a huge difference between DHL and the usual postcarrier in Germany? - What have you others done in the same situation?

Im soo hoping to get it here in the beginning of next week!
[Nexus 4 General] wewd:
I'm in the same situation. My friend told me it's like this (via normal post): 3.45e, and if registered +2.05e.
[Nexus 4 General] batano:
With DHL insured shipping to Finnland costs 10,60€ express Shippment (24h service) would be 53,90€

to send ur Devices, it is fast and insured with 500 Euro!

Any other service will be a big risk, because they have only 35 Euro insurance!

and i got a message " The shipment could not be delivered and is being forwarded to a retail outlet. The recipient has been notified. "

what does it mean?
[Nexus 4 General] batano:
i only know thoose standart messages in German but i think it means that they store it at the post office because noone was there to sign for the package in this case they leave a notice in the mailbox saying when you/your father can pick it up at the post office

correct me if i am wrong

It means that the shipment could not be given to your father, because he was not at home. But they left a notification for him so he can pick it up at the retail outlet the "next"(not today) day.
