So I ordered mine on November 5th and Its not the 8th and it still says pending. Supposed to leave warehouse on December 3rd.

Is it normal that it still pending? Should i go into panic mode or slap myself for being impatient?
[Nexus 5 General] TheOneChristo:
It will say pending until it ships. Mine is in the same state. Ordered the first - ships out the 26th and is still pending.
[Nexus 5 General] spacemanspiff33:
still showing pending on mine......
[Nexus 5 General] Ashcunak:
FYI for anyone in Calgary upgrading from a phone with a standard sim and on Wind mobile.

17th ave location has 0 sim cards in stock to swap for us! franklin mall erm whatever they renamed it to with the T&T in it in the NE has about 30 as of last night and the store downtown on 1st street and 9th ave by saneal camera has some also in stock.

at 17th ave they checked inventory and had a bunch of other stores with out cards also but they only told me some that did have cards that i could try.

Really? Do you not know how to use the internet? Here's part of your answer. The rest I'm sure you can find if you actually try. http://www.bell.ca/Mobility/Products/Nexus-5
[Nexus 5 General] matthewr87:
Mine was delivered at 10 am yesterday. It was stuffed in my mailbox when I came home at around 5 pm. It was quite cold during the day and so the phone had a lot of condensation on it when I took it out of the box. I let it sit for about an hour before turning it on in an effort to dissipate the condensation. I'm happy with the phone and it is a significant improvement over my GNex.
[Nexus 5 General] Tzfardaya:
Slap yourself for being impatient.... :p

besides, I just checked the google play shop for their details on my phone.. still says "Leaves warehouse by November 8, 2013."

Yet... The tracking number they sent me last week says "Scheduled Delivery: Friday, 11/08/2013, By End of Day"

so... Google's page doesn't update quite as readily as it should...

Did you get the purchase confirmation e-mail? That's the one I would worry about most. Then I'd keep watch out for the Shipping e-mail.
[Nexus 5 General] Kanarico:
Mine's also out for delivery in Calgary! So excited. I have a standard size SIM but I'm thinking of just cutting it down to a micro sim. Hopefully I don't mess it up.
[Nexus 5 General] vseslija:
Yup i Got the purchase confirmation email and i also see that my Credit Card was temporarily charged the full amount.

Do you guys think we are getting a different batch of phones from people that ordered right away on the 31st?
[Nexus 5 General] Tzfardaya:
that's my guess... given how the shipping date has crawled out for the later orders...

that being said, there have been rumors and reports of people ordering later but getting their phone first...

given the 2-5 week lead time (or longer) on the Check order Status my guess is google is expecting a shipment from LG every week or so right now...
[Nexus 5 General] cooooooop:
Received my Nexus 5 32GB from the play store yesterday, Nov 7. The shipping info said it would ship 2day express by Nov 5, but I got a tracker way back on Nov 1. So it really took 6 days to ship (to Calgary), but still got to me within the time they said.

I had a Nexus S previously, which had a bigger sim card, I had to go to the Telus store and buy a new mini sim card for $10. Registered the new sim online (don't pay $35 for them to do it in store, it's not worth it!)
[Nexus 5 General] Caddish:
Really ? Do you not know how to read a question?

There is no part of my answer on your link (which I had obviously seen) or from my research on google. I want to know if the phone is SIM-LOCKED (not to confuse with bootloader locked) and if they are going to offer the 32GB version anytime soon (maybe someone working at Bell would know that one).

But yeah thanks for wasting our time :good:
[Nexus 5 General] Tzfardaya:
heh, from my understanding (probably wrong though) the carriers are only getting the 16gb phones...

as to sim-locked or not...I have no idea...

as to wasting time... I find that happens a lot on xda... :P I seem to spend more time than I expect to here...
[Nexus 5 General] kilometers4:
Mines out for delivery in BC:)
[Nexus 5 General] Caddish:
Thanks

In case somebody is interested I found that it can be sim-unlocked for 5$ on www.unlockunit.com but I could not find confirmation that it is sim-locked

I can't understand why they would not offer the 32GB, hopefully it's only while the 32GB stock are low anyone working at a canadian carrier can confirm ?
[Nexus 5 General] Tzfardaya:
Easiest way to check if it's sim locked is borrow a friend who's on a different carrier, yoink their sim and see if your phone works....

As to why carriers would only get 16gb's, so google play can keep exclusivity on the 32's to themselves... (justify their device sales existance... :P )
[Nexus 5 General] custo:
Nexus phones are always Sim unlocked. As for a 32gb version, I wouldn't expect to see that through the carriers
[Nexus 5 General] Cuzz1369:
O

The only thing I could find on any carrier was 16gb black. So I decided to bite the bullet and buy the one I wanted (32gb White) from the play store. Ordered it on the 5th it said 2-3 weeks. However it is in a truck on its way to my house right now. :P

In Kitchener, Ontario
[Nexus 5 General] richport29:
Mine is out for delivery, Ontario :)
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
Vancouver - mine is supposed to deliver today, but it doesn't actually say out for delivery yet today.
[Nexus 5 General] Tzfardaya:
Does the tracking info show it being in Vancouver/Burnaby at least? (I forget where the UPS hub is in that corner)

If the arrive scan was last evening, hopefully they just missed a scan....

Mines out for delivery now, and I'm paranoid about leaving the house... (having worked for UPS, I know that they'll just leave it on my step if I'm not here.... even though they shouldn't... the Driver release mantra is "Out of sight, out of mind, out of weather" leave a delivery notice with where you left it on the door...)

Unfortunately... because of Murphy, If I leave for 10 minutes, they'll drop it and go... it might still be here when I get back...

If I stay home... they won't be here until 8pm.....
[Nexus 5 General] jeeholim:
Same - my shipment is in my city, and it arrived yesterday, so it should be delivered to me today, but it doesn't say it's out for delivery.
[Nexus 5 General] Cuzz1369:
It just got here. :thumbup: Put in my Sim and downloading update. My next post will be from my brand new Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 General] Caddish:
Even when bought from carrier ?
[Nexus 5 General] custo:
Yes
[Nexus 5 General] Cuzz1369:
Yes. Google won't let them lick it down. The only exception is sprint in the us. Because they are CDMA(no Sim)
[Nexus 5 General] Gibbus:
Received the phone in Calgary yesterday at 5PM after all! A great looking phone but I hate that they put the logo on the screen protector, as I need to use it as temporary protection before my screen protector comes in :P
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
Don't lick your Nexus. Not very hygienic.

I'm sure Sprint's N5 is also unlocked as it takes a SIM for its CDMA & LTE subscriber identities.

Last line item is Richmond BC yesterday 6:48 PM.
[Nexus 5 General] Tzfardaya:
We're not, Google is keeping the carriers from licking our phones...

Richmond? then it should be on truck today... hopefully they just missed the scan... it happens...
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
Well it's customary among people of a certain maturity level to lick something before anyone can get at it, so that nobody else will want it ;)
[Nexus 5 General] Tzfardaya:
which is why google isn't letting them...

But, my phone has arrived, hope yours does soon too...
[Nexus 5 General] syder:
Stupid UPS just left my delivery at front door without even ringing the door bell. ffffffffffffffffffffff

if you want a free nexus 5 just walk around your neighborhood
[Nexus 5 General] CrazyIvan:
Wonder if any criminals stocked up on new Nexus 5's by tailing the UPS truck? :eek:
[Nexus 5 General] Jayowend:
FYI the "Status" on the Google Play Orders page will only show the "Leaves warehouse by ____" date. If you click on Info and look at the top-right hand corner you'll see if it's either "SHIPPED" or "Processing". Either way, your UPS label progress is the most accurate date and tis sittihe one that you should be checking.

My Nexus has been sitting at Richmond, BC warehouse since 4am today haha. Hopefully they don't delay the delivery until Tuesday.. that's a 4 day wait for something sitting 30 minutes away from me D:
[Nexus 5 General] thegregulator:
Mine was in Richmond at 3:30 am on the 7th. At 5:30 pm on the 7th I received an import scan, but nothing since then. They'd better not let the phone sit there all weekend.
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
Has anyone in BC actually seen their N5 as out for delivery today? How about the one in Surrey/Delta?
[Nexus 5 General] kilometers4:
Nope not yet. Still says out for delivery and no buzz yet

I'm in north surrey btw
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
EDIT: It just arrived! Never said out for delivery online, but lo and behold it's in my hands.

EDIT: Yay I can shower now! ;)
[Nexus 5 General] kilometers4:
Where are you located?
[Nexus 5 General] cooooooop:
Same thing with my delivery, I guess that's standard? I purposefully left the inside door open so I would notice, but they must have very quietly opened the screen door and placed the package down, I heard something at the time but thought it was my neighbors (share an entry way). I expected a doorbell/knock, a hello, something!

Found it a couple hours later when I went to check, good thing I was the one who found it!

Why don't they require signature?
[Nexus 5 General] Hasan_Najjar:
HEY ..

Can you still buy the nexus 5 from the playstore in Canada ,or is it out of stock ??

and if it not available now ,when it will be ??
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
East Vancouver near Commercial Dr.
[Nexus 5 General] kilometers4:
Hmm, I wonder if mines into he same truck as you, or if surrey deliveries are on a different truck
[Nexus 5 General] iamhacked:
Good thing last year when I got the nexus 4 I actually saw the UPS guy coming and opened the door right away.
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
I would think that when they do their rounds, they sort by geographic area so that all the missed deliveries can go to the same UPS Stores.

Were you the one who reported your package going to Annacis Island first? In which case you're definitely on a different truck.
[Nexus 5 General] kilometers4:
Yeah mine went to annacis island. The wait is killing me :)
[Nexus 5 General] iamhacked:
So the 16GB black I ordered 4 days ago is STILL shown as pending... Reps have assured me the order is processing, but wonder if I can change it to a white one.
[Nexus 5 General] TheOneChristo:
All this makes me wonder if I should just order a second Nexus 5 and see which one gets shipped first - then cancel the other.
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
Daaaaaamn.... Five dead pixels, counted 'em. I guess that means I'll initiate an advance swap at some point. But I'd still want to switch over from my GNex as soon as possible, as I'd take five dead pixels any day over banding and sluggish I/O.
[Nexus 5 General] iamhacked:
But I don't have the money to order a second one, I need to just change the order if that's even possible.
[Nexus 5 General] radeon_x:
At least you can use yours. My earpiece arrived pretty much DOA.

Note to self: never buy the first batch of a phone manufactured by LG.
[Nexus 5 General] iamhacked:
Wonder if I can price match Google Play and just buy it from Best Buy or Future Shop??
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
Eek. Haven't had the chance to try the earpiece yet as I have not moved my SIM.
[Nexus 5 General] custo:
You could try... I HIGHLY doubt they would.
[Nexus 5 General] Zackaroli:
Arghh back again to the loop, UPS doesn't know where the shipment is and Google are saying they shipped it.. wtf is this
[Nexus 5 General] kilometers4:
Just got mine.. Anyone in Surrey, BC get ready.. It's coming :)
[Nexus 5 General] uofaboy:
I was able to price match at Future Shop when I got the 32GB Nexus 7 2013 and they even beat it by $1! However, cellphones might be different. It never hurts to try.
[Nexus 5 General] krblake13:
I just got mine a couple of hours ago, here in Lethbridge, AB. Loaded it up, screen was great (no dead pixels), but wouldn't you know it, the speaker is dead. I tried youtube, google play music, alarm tones, ring tones, etc. The volume was cranked to the max. Needless to say, Google is sending me a new one and I'm shipping there's back shortly.
[Nexus 5 General] CrazyIvan:
No idea, they really should at almost $1000. There was 2 sitting in that box. There must be criminals that follow these guys around. Easy pickings...
[Nexus 5 General] vcamx:
Anyone in Burnaby has got his Nexus 5?
[Nexus 5 General] iamhacked:
I originally ordered a 16GB black on November 2nd with a declined payment, but updated payment on the 4th. It baffles me that it still hasn't shipped 4 days later, but three reps that I talked to assured me my order is processing fine.

One thing is that these reps I talked to all seem very incompetent. They all took like 15 minutes just to get my account info and see what's wrong with my orders. Just got off the phone with another rep. He was struggling to give basic explanations like how Google Wallet and Play doesn't necessarily update quick enough, and that it's not shipping because of all the load of the initial launch. He was stuttering pretty hard and I just had to quickly end the call because of how terrible the support was. Will it be any better if I demand that I be escalated to a supervisor or something?

Is there really anything I can do at this point? I paid with a TD debit card and the charge seems to be an immediate charge, no hold or anything so I don't have enough money to consider buying a 2nd one to see if it ships quicker either.
[Nexus 5 General] vseslija:
When did you place your order if you don't mind me asking?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 General] radeon_x:
Within 5 minutes of it being released :)
[Nexus 5 General] DoesntPostAThing:
Possibly the only good thing of being in the second or third batch.

When did you order?

Nope, is supposed to leave warehouse December 3rd.

I doubt yours shipped yet, as many people who ordered before you and I haven't gotten theirs shipped. We should also be stuck on the Dec. 3 batch, meaning 1 more month to go. Meanwhile, I'm here getting all my NFC tags, SIM cards, app data, ROMs, etc. ready so as soon as it arrives I can just make it my own.
[Nexus 5 General] kilometers4:
Oct 31st @ 11:07am PST. You?
[Nexus 5 General] Mr. Droid:
What's the return policy if it sealed
[Nexus 5 General] marleyfan61:
Dude. I was in a crappy mood. Also didn't see you were referring to the 32GB. I apologize for being an ass.
[Nexus 5 General] imeem:
when i ordered my n4, UPS lost mine
[Nexus 5 General] thegregulator:
I'm in North Vancouver and I got mine at about 2:15. Well, that's not true. The UPS guy gave it to a guy doing renovations on our house, who in turn gave it to me.
[Nexus 5 General] kooky_krazy:
Anyone in Calgary who had a scheduled delivery for today still waiting for theirs? UPS tracking says it's on the truck, but still no word. :confused:
[Nexus 5 General] DokoBG1:
Mine shows that it is in Richmond, BC since yesterday at 4:00am. However they never delivered it today. Looks like i have to wait until after the long weekend on Tuesday. I hate it when UPS does that to me....
[Nexus 5 General] kilometers4:
I would give them a call. They could give you a more specific location. They possibly missed updating the tracking number. Not trying to get your hopes up.

Also I think end of day is at 7 PM. Correct me if I'm wrong.. There's still hope :)
[Nexus 5 General] vcamx:
I haven't got it yet…Its status is just "import scan" at Richmond. Why?
[Nexus 5 General] Caddish:
No problem, sh!ts happen

In case anyone is interested I have a sealed black 16gb Nexus 5 for sale. 450$ CAD available for pickup in Montréal (the dealer confirmed it is sim unlocked)
[Nexus 5 General] kc511:
Yup, I'm in the same situation as you.
[Nexus 5 General] oupavoc:
Had mine for 4 days now. Love it! Hopefully you all get to enjoy it soon :)
[Nexus 5 General] spacemanspiff33:
Just got my shipping confirmation email about 5 minutes ago

Shows delivery on 15th....not perfect but at least now I know it's coming
[Nexus 5 General] :
Mines in the same truck. I was going to pick it up since it was in Richmond so I gave them a call, but the person said that "you can't pick it up until its scheduled delivery time" which is Tuesday. Sucks, but I'll wait.
[Nexus 5 General] Word_play:
Order date

When did you place your order? Also, what model/colour did you order?
[Nexus 5 General] tulongest:
Looks like you had your KitKat ceremony too! xD
[Nexus 5 General] MrMCrowley:
Posting this from a beautiful Nexus 5 in Calgary. :)
[Nexus 5 General] cmstlist:
Incidentally the line item where it's delivered says Richmond, BC on the tracking page, even though I'm in Vancouver.
[Nexus 5 General] raegae2000:
What Icon pack are you using?
[Nexus 5 General] BoltActionWaffle:
Anyone that Ordered the 32gb Black on November 1st get their shipping email yet?
[Nexus 5 General] can6rxw:
Tried that the last time... They refused because the carrier was involved.
[Nexus 5 General] Zackaroli:
Finally my shipping status changed from created shipping slip to shipped, it says delivery date is the 8th of Nov but its still in the USA lol, the losers just picked it up today or Google told them to take the whole shipment today just wow , Google is the worst company when it comes to Customer service, they sweeten talk you when you call and assure you that the issue will be resolved then they ask for a feedback which ofcourse will be positive then they send you a generic email to follow up and you will call again and be assured that the issue will be fixed.. lol

A company that cannot handle a shipping process is handling alot of private data, how Ironic

/Rant
[Nexus 5 General] alex00725:
oh damn. you didnt get it today ? my info updated yesterday itself and it says will ship on monday. it currently is around Minneapolis so i hope they can deliver it as scheduled. looks like we both will get it the same day :P
[Nexus 5 General] marleyfan61:
Not me. Mine still says leaves warehouse Nov 26. That's forever away!!
[Nexus 5 General] Zackaroli:
lol I think I will get it on Tuesday since it takes around 2 days to come to the GTA, according to UPS the shipment is on time and I should get it today haha
