Tracking number takes 24 hours but I will update when an estimated delivery date is given
[Nexus 5 General] Gormsen:
So I just wrote this little guide on how to buy the Nexus 5 when living outside UK, US, Germany etc. If you don't know someone in that given country, then Google will be your friend. There are plenty services on the internet which will recieve and ship products for you.

I didn't see this thread before now, but I guess it belongs in here.

1. First you need to download the Tor client/package. Here: https://www.torproject.org/download/download-easy.html.en

Go for the browser bundle, it makes everything much easier.

Unpack it and move it to you desktop (for convenience) - Open the client by clicking the icon "Start Tor Browser.exe"

2. Now you have to configure the client to work with exitnodes. This is done in settings. First check this:

Then click this and check all six options.

So far so good. Now exit the client, close it completely.

3. The next thing you'll have to do is finding the fingerprints you want to use. I used fingerprints from the UK, 'cause I wanted to buy the Nexus 5 on the UK Playstore.

Go to this page for fingerprints: http://torstatus.blutmagie.de/index.php?SR=CountryCode&SO=Asc

You can sort the different nodes as you want to. Now choose 3 from the desired country. Just for the convenience of it, lets say UK.

Click the name of the router to access it like in the pic, choose a router with long uptime, since they are more reliable.

Then copy the Fingerprint into Word, Notepad or whatever.

Do this until you have three fingerprints.

4. Go back to your Folder with the Tor client. Go into the folder "Data", then the folder "Tor". You should see a file named "torrc" Right-click this and choose "Edit" (Use Notepad or Notepad++ if you have that)

Now write:

ExitNodes {insert fingerprint 1}, {insert fingerprint 2}, {insert fingerprint 3} (remember to remove the spaces in the fingerprints)

StrictNodes 1

It should look something like this.

Now save, run your Tor client again, wait for it to say "Connected to the Tor network" or something like that, It will open the browser, and you're good to go.

5. Create a new Google account with address in you chosen country, in this case UK.

6. Open your normal browser (Chrome, Firefox etc.) and go to wallet.google.com

Input you credit card details, still with the same address as before.

(I did it this way, because I don't fully trust the Tor network..)

7. Go back into the Tor browser. go to https://play.google.com/store/devices

Order Nexus 5

Profit

Hope you enjoyed my little guide, if it doesn't work, you have done something wrong. But don't worry, just delete the folder, unpack it again and start over. This is far easier than finding out what you did wrong.

Also some fingerprints don't work, like Torland1 and Torland2 from UK.
[Nexus 5 General] Johmama:
Well I got my order confirmation email by 1:07 (CST, it went live at 1:00 CST) so I couldn't be too far behind.
[Nexus 5 General] nickmv:
1. What model?

2. When did you order it?

I ordered a white 32GB at 1:12 PM Central Time, and it shows as Pending, will ship by Nov 5th. Kind of aggravating to see other people getting shipping notifications when I ordered mine literally AS the white 32gb model appeared (which took several minutes after the black 16GB appeared).
[Nexus 5 General] MaxCarnage:
I ordered mine at 11:02 am and I'm not getting my panties twisted in a knot over not getting any shipping info yet. Give it time; they have a lot of orders to process and all day yo do it. :)
[Nexus 5 General] ctbear:
Is there anyway to change the shipping address after placing the order?
[Nexus 5 General] MasterGGM:
When I ordered my 32GB Black version, there was no way for a regular person to get to it to even order, I manually changed the link to get to the 32GB version's site and ordered it at 11:03AM (just 3 minutes after release) and I still am pending with no shipment. Everyone is just paranoid. Relax.:p
[Nexus 5 General] tmmurri:
Nope, you've got to cancel and reorder from what I've read.
[Nexus 5 General] MaxCarnage:
Try calling the Play Store but, probably not.
[Nexus 5 General] lensgrabber:
I just got a shipping confirmation with tracking number as well. Ordered 32gb black at 12:00:45pm mountain. It could be a placeholder. We'll see what UPS says on Friday.
[Nexus 5 General] dazz87:
Where are you located at? I place my order (32gb) at 11:06am pst and Im in So Cal. Hopefully I get a tracking # tonight, and get it here by Monday.
[Nexus 5 General] ctbear:
The sale representative suggested me to change the address in the address book to the one I want, but that didn't update the order itself.

Hopefully UPS is able to help me once it ships.
[Nexus 5 General] wideasleep1:
I beat you by a minute 11:02!
[Nexus 5 General] MaxCarnage:
Me too! :-O
[Nexus 5 General] TJCacher:
Well it's been a crazy day.

I ordered a black 32gb model. I was on the Twitter-based notification list that the guy on Reddit (and later xda) set up. The instant I got notified (was actually a minute or so before 11:00 pst) I clicked the url in the tweet and got a page not found error. I looked at the url, noticed it was for a 16gb white model, and manually edited it to the presumed url for the 32gb black. That page loaded for me and I had it bought and paid for in 30 seconds. About 30 seconds after that, I simultaneously got my confirmation email from Google and the Twitter notification containing the link to the phone I had just purchased.

Doubt many folks got an order in before mine...
[Nexus 5 General] daveybear:
I ordered Black 32gb and literally one minute after it went up. Don't fret, I am sure you will get your confirmation today. I also got 2 day shipping so I would be sooo excited to get it by the weekend, but I doubt that will happen. Still early next week is pretty awesome.
[Nexus 5 General] larry_walker:
anyone else still pending that ordered within the first few minutes the phones went live? i called google and they said the charge went through fine and i'm still on schedule to leave the warehouse by the 5th, but seeing people who ordered days later get shipping confirmations already has me worried.
[Nexus 5 General] irev210:
I am saying two separate 32GB models have MEIDs that are not loaded with Sprint.

Sprint told me the MEIDs were not loaded.
[Nexus 5 General] Fidelio_o:
Yes, if you have the MY UPs membership only. 40 dollars a year plus 5 dollars per package.
[Nexus 5 General] RedWingsFan:
So you said "OK" and hung up?

Did they give you a timeline?
[Nexus 5 General] RedWingsFan:
Don't worry. There is obviously no pattern that Google is using to release orders. If they say it'll be out by the 5th, then it will probably be out by the 5th. So I'd expect that tonight or tomorrow early AM you'll get a shipping notification with a possible delivery tomorrow or Wednesday.
[Nexus 5 General] irev210:
No, he just created a ticket and said he would follow up with me in a few days.

What am I supposed to do? He is a customer service guy - he has no idea why the MEIDs are not loaded.
[Nexus 5 General] RedWingsFan:
What you do is escalate the issue. Ask to speak to his manager, then his manager, etc. until they get it fixed. You own a phone that Sprint said they would support....yet aren't actually supporting it.

I mean you can just sit back for a few days and wait for a call, but knowing Sprint.....don't hold your breath. You need to stay on top of them.
[Nexus 5 General] Michael95GT:
"Will Call" is available for FREE with the standard My UPS account. You don't have to have the premium.
[Nexus 5 General] mjs2011:
Just curious, what was their resolution? What kind of next steps are you looking at?
[Nexus 5 General] irev210:
Yeah, I mean, they created a ticket so it's working its way through the Sprint system.

I suspect they'll be flooded with 32GB nexus 5 owners who are upset.

Me? I just used my T-Mobile SIM for now.
[Nexus 5 General] sn0warmy:
Ouch. Judging by what happened last year, people in your position experienced 1 of 2 scenarios:

1) If you ordered 2 day shipping it magically appears on your doorstep today or tomorrow with no shipping notification (this happened to a bunch of people last year, including myself)

2) Sadly, you may have an issue with the order. This happened to a handful of people last year as well. If you ordered 2 day shipping and don't get an email by tomorrow night and your phone hasn't arrived, I'd say it is a safe time to raise the alarms and call Google again. However, if you ordered standard 3-5 day shipping (like me) then I really wouldn't bother getting upset or calling again until Wednesday night or Thursday morning.
[Nexus 5 General] RedWingsFan:
I just know how their "system" moves. Not fast.

So I always stay on top of Sprint when I have an issue which usually results in a quick resolution. Tier 1 CSRs are worthless.
[Nexus 5 General] niv3d:
Any of you know of a way to purchase one with a PayPal account?
[Nexus 5 General] irev210:
Agreed. I spoke with the escalation team and Sprint employee customer service.

Once the ticket is created, it's seen by people that can actually fix things. Beyond that, I haven't found a magic bullet to move things along faster for something like this.
[Nexus 5 General] Rhatfield25:
Im also in Indy, and ordered mine before you. i wonder if the 16s and 32s are in different locations?
[Nexus 5 General] Jay5583:
When I ordered mine on 10.31.2013 @ 11:05pm... it showed 3-4 weeks..checked on it on Friday and showed 2-3 weeks...but it got shipped today and I'll have it Friday. Good on Google...under promise...over delivery
[Nexus 5 General] mjs2011:
Agreed. And I wouldn't be surprised if the person didn't know what they were doing. This would be a major issue if the phones were not made correctly for Sprint. I'm guessing on the former.

Yeah, like you said, I would kick and scream till he gets a manager on the line.
[Nexus 5 General] Phazmos:
It should be. Once ups get the package into their system their delivery dates are very accurate.
[Nexus 5 General] dkotoric:
front white speaker closup, sides closeup and back
[Nexus 5 General] RedWingsFan:
9 times out of 10 this is the issue....people don't know what they are doing so they just pass it on down the line via some ticketing system.
[Nexus 5 General] Qbancelli:
Really? Maybe there is hope for me,

Did you pay for 2 days shipping?
[Nexus 5 General] mjs2011:
Yep, and I look at how many CSR's on chat were clueless right away regarding the SIM cards. All it took was to keep calling/chatting.
[Nexus 5 General] unkn0wnz:
Yes i did.
[Nexus 5 General] Qbancelli:
Oh, thats why. They had to.
[Nexus 5 General] P.Mobile:
all i have to say is i hope i never have to order a phone again!! lol cant wait till this is over.. just checked and the next stop will be 1 hour and 55 mins away from.. in the next state over.. then it comes to my state.. think ill just wait it out.. can someone knock me out till wendsday please!! :D:silly:
[Nexus 5 General] moonrock:
My email came yesterday (Sunday) at 5:12am and MyChoice was giving me a delivery date of Wednesday, the package finally got scanned and now updated to delivery tomorrow (Tuesday) between 3-7pm. Hooray!
[Nexus 5 General] aboveusonlysky:
i was hoping to get mine today, but when i got up it still said label created waiting for pick up or what not. then it changed and ill have it tomorrow by the end of business. too bad i have to be in north atlanta tomorrow from 7-4. the ups guy will have a not waiting on my from door where to deliver it. :D
[Nexus 5 General] BeerChameleon:
When u find an easy work around lemme know. I am surprised Google doesn't accept PayPal. I want to use my PayPal credit and buy it but they won't let me :/
[Nexus 5 General] Zainiak:
Got my ringke fusion today, phone gets delivered tomorrow!!
[Nexus 5 General] phin586:
Mine is still pending from ordering about 40 mins after release. A white 32GB. Says it will leave BY the 5th of November.
[Nexus 5 General] onmike:
The way I use paypal in places that normally don't accept is with the paypal debit card. The debit card is free and just linked to your paypal balance.
[Nexus 5 General] niv3d:
The routes I'm thinking of right now are purchasing a Wal-Mart e-gift Card or Staples which sell Google Play Gift cards. Then buying the GP cards and then getting the N5 that way haha. It's a process but is a workaround.
[Nexus 5 General] dhoshman:
Just noticed that my order was also bumped up from delivery on Wednesday to early delivery tomorrow. It's going to be a long night. Hopefully my Spigen case comes today. Guess it's time to finally get rid of my N4. Anyone know what an excellent condition N4 is going for (16gb)?
[Nexus 5 General] dills84:
Is signature required on UPS 2nd day air deliveries from google? Mine doesnt appear to say it is? But my past experience with google always required a signature for deliveries.
[Nexus 5 General] tlopez1973:
Sad on my end I got rescheduled from the 7th now to the 8th dam you Google and ups
[Nexus 5 General] hackdisk:
If a signature is required it will be indicated on your tracking page.

So no, this doesn't require a signature. Mine was left at the front door.

However, some people have said they need to sign for it, so I guess it depends on your delivery guy...
[Nexus 5 General] gtj0:
Looks like I may get an early present...

And it's here, even though the guy at the UPS customer support center told me it wouldn't be in until tomorrow.
[Nexus 5 General] ctowne:
Woot!
[Nexus 5 General] BeerChameleon:
This isn't my issue i have

, I could easily use my debit card for Google but I want to use my bill me later credit from PayPal. Thanks for the thought tho :)

This sounds like a solid work around. Thanks. I have an even better one tho just need a good friend that won't take my money. Lol send someone money and they send it right back.. Lol

now I'm deciding if I should unlock the boot loader right away or not
[Nexus 5 General] yokken:
Unlock it right away so you don't end up wiping all of your settings/files when you decide you do want to unlock it. That's what I did with my Nexus 7.

As for my order... ordered 11/3 7:20pm CST. Still in pending, and it showed 3-4 weeks. But after reading this thread, I'm thinking I might end up getting it sooner than Thanksgiving...
[Nexus 5 General] zxyz:
I'm not complaining at all but I paid for 2 day shipping and I live in Canada. Departure scan from KY was on Friday. As of today it still says expected delivery Thursday. Obviously that's not 2 day shipping. My question is do weekends count? If they don't that means the latest I should get it is Wednesday right? If it comes Thursday do you think it's reasonable to get a refund? I'm not even sure if I'm bothered enough to ask for one if it's one day late but still.

EDIT: NEVER MIND. The person who bought it for me asked me if I wanted 2 day shipping before it went on sale, but apparently when it when on sale there was no 2 day option. Still wondering about weekends though.
[Nexus 5 General] Zainiak:
That was my plan. Looks like I'm sticking with it
[Nexus 5 General] daLareid:
All of you guys getting a day before the expected delivery date coming from Louisville, KY, mine's shipping from there as well and since the original estimate is Thursday (Nov. 7th), I hope mine also arrives one day earlier.
[Nexus 5 General] shev7chenko:
I get both of mine tomorrow and I ordered them on Thursday around 12:00 mountain time.
[Nexus 5 General] niv3d:
That's exactly what I'm doing with Bill me later haha. You happen to know what happens with your Bill me later if you go over your limit?

Wait can you send money from Bill me later though? Doesn't that also take like a week?
[Nexus 5 General] ctowne:
RMA device ordered.
[Nexus 5 General] BeerChameleon:
No not a week like a day at most for it to show up on there account balance. However a few days to put into there checking account

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:50 PM ----------

I am unsure about going over limit, I think it will still approve but maybe only over a little. They just increased mine to 2000 for holidays , I do have some damn good credit tho, I just need a higher income job lol
[Nexus 5 General] mjs2011:
I ordered mine yesterday and just called Google. They said my shipping date is 11/22. Boooo....
[Nexus 5 General] BeerChameleon:
Well you are ahead of me, probably be another month before I even order. Will see tho :)
[Nexus 5 General] niv3d:
Hmm ok good to know. Well I'll just send money to my gfs PayPal and then transfer it to her account. Good to know! Funny that you can do this but not transfer to yourself.... Yea I have great credit as well. :)
[Nexus 5 General] sn0warmy:
What was wrong with it?
[Nexus 5 General] BeerChameleon:
Ya that works, I am waiting for my buddy to give me his PayPal address I told him I'd give him some money for doing this haha! I may wait tho. Good luck and Leanne know how that send money thing works and how long it took to get to and from your gf. Also yay for Awesome credit!! :thumbup:
[Nexus 5 General] Kid Poker:
I placed an order on the 1st when my cousin told me it is finally on the play store. I ordered the 32gb black, but kept looking at why did they show a white in the front? So I went back, changed the color to white, kept it at 32gb, and said it was shipping in 2~3 weeks. I confirmed the order, then canceled the black one. Next day later, I get a confirmation email that they had shipped it, checked the tracking #, and said label created. It had been shipped out as of the 3rd in KY, and it is scheduled for delivery for this Thursday, the 7th.
[Nexus 5 General] ctowne:
Dust under the glass.
[Nexus 5 General] sn0warmy:
Ugh, not this BS again. I had to RMA my first N4 ordered on launch day because of that. I hope I don't wait till Thursday just to find out I need a new one again...

Okay hopefully I can sleep tonight. Ready to unlock the bootloader and hopefully we can root this right away. Who knows maybe we can already I just haven't checked the forums.
[Nexus 5 General] P.Mobile:
wow i got shafted a f ing day now.. smh.. on the ups website its said wendsday since saturday.. its still says wendsday.. but when i call to track my package over the phone it says thurday the 7th... im so mad.. o and still has not moved since the 1st.. stright BS
[Nexus 5 General] namartlu:
Same here, originally scheduled for Wed delivery. :)
[Nexus 5 General] ctowne:
Yeah man I had to RMA my nexus 4 that I got on launch as well. :banghead::banghead:
[Nexus 5 General] lwfb:
That's not shafted.

Shafted is when you don't even have a shipping confirmation email and everyone that ordered after you does, your status on everything is pending, Google tells you everything "looks good" and "it should be shipping by the 5th" despite not being able to actually confirm that and you ordered within the first five minutes with two day shipping.

You at least know when you'll be getting your device.
[Nexus 5 General] unkn0wnz:

[Nexus 5 General] casonswag:

[Nexus 5 General] thor6577:

[Nexus 5 General] yokken:
Watch, you'll get it tomorrow... lol
[Nexus 5 General] thor6577:
I hope so. :fingers-crossed: Otherwise I might just go to KY and get my phone. ;)
[Nexus 5 General] t.saddington:
It's been 3 days just sitting like this and it's driving me crazy D: It's Tuesday now, I don't know why they still estimate it to arrive tomorrow!
[Nexus 5 General] jamezz23:
Yes lol mine ships in 3-4 weeks, oh well, gives me ample amount of time to get a screen protector and case here ready for when the phone arrives! And plus I had to order a LTE Sim card so at least when my phone arrives everything will be ready to roll! Just don't want it to be longer than what they say, that would suck

There are plenty in the other shipping thread. Seems Google is picking orders to ship randomly instead of first come first serve. Saw a couple people post that they ordered over the weekend and have already had their's shipped out.

yeah,having seen many 32g white or black and 16g black.But I didn't see the 16g white.
