LoL. I can believe you wasted your time but why some poor sap who didn't deserve you ignoring his response of "no eta". It will come when it comes and if it comes before the end of 2013 I'll give you $5 usd
[G2 General] barondebxl:
If ANY OEM out there should release Kitkat early for their flagship device it should be LG since they worked closely with google on this nexus and the last one. Its time they learn how to properly support their devices.

He probably thought about the actual chocolate kitkat.
[G2 General] night_sky:
Even if LG had its ducks in a row, carriers will make their ugly presence felt by delaying the crap out of them. Carrier testing for WP8 GDR2 took several months.

LG G2
[G2 General] WizeGuyDezignz:
No disrespect, but that has to be one of the most embarrassing chats that I have ever seen. Just how you kept asking the same question over and over and then the poor agent who is probably making minimum wage or close to it just tells you what you want to hear after he clearly says that he doesn't know and didn't have an eta.

And you are saying confirmed by LG? Hahahaha.
[G2 General] Wamglou:
Yes. It will be out in november, 2014
[G2 General] djpeesh:
Spoke to an LG honcho from India. He didn't say end of November but end of the year and confirmed he meant 2013 (I checked if he meant end of 2014/5/6), at least for the International edition. LG's prestige is riding on it, so I wouldn't expect them to delay too much.
[G2 General] Ascertion:
I'm predicting February 4.4 KitKat OTA.

We also have some kit kat features :)

Full emoji suport and full screen notifications pull down. Just waitting for kit kat for autohide softkejys :)
[G2 General] ccoulterjg1:
I think it's plausible considering LG has been sitting on 4.4 for a long time while developing the Nexus 5. Likely? Probably not. Plausible? Sure.

Actually he was trying to say that he would get the ETA confirmed till November end :D
[G2 General] jerverg:
Don't generalize you id*ots. I was a Cx Rep and never misinformed any client. Had a good chat last time with a Samsung rep about the JB update of GTab 7.7 and it did arrive as the rep told me. Please do realize that companies such as LG puts out notices to Cx Reps on what might be the FAQs for the whole month and what script ahould be said when asked. He did not promise a sure date but he did say it is going to arrive.

Front-line CSRs are usually just as clueless as customers, if not maybe even more so. And I say this as a former CSR (not for Verizon, but for another then-huge company).
[G2 General] ElecEngineer1422:
Edit: LG flex does not have 4.4 Kit Kat must have been a pre release rumor I was thinking of. Like others were saying they have the Nexus 5 contract so they have the experience with Kit Kat. Just needs to port their UI and 13MP camera to Kit Kat.
[G2 General] Mandelbrot.Benoit:
Post source. Every article I find indicates the LG Flex is on 4.2.2

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...=wm-VYkGkmIF5jGcMulqViw&bvm=bv.55819444,d.b2I

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...=R54CxBMuGToGIdmyFMgDBg&bvm=bv.55819444,d.b2I

So does that mean we have farther to stretch?

Edit: nice edit but you're still wrong. At no point was LG privy to 4.4. They just provide the hardware. Where is your source that LG has more experience with kitkat over Motorola or Samsung or HTC?
[G2 General] veloct:
Even if it was true and LG released it in November, we are still looking at several months (probably longer for poor bastards like me on Verizon who has the worse track record for updates ever) before we'll see it.
[G2 General] zathus:
The carriers is what scares me. LG can have it released tomorrow and it still might take a few months. As long as they release the source and Dev can port it. That at least we'll have a rooted version. Which is probably what I would end up using anyways
[G2 General] IamPro:
How long do you think that will take before we have a stable build? Also is the Nexus 5 home screen always on Google Now gonna be possible to port to the G2?
[G2 General] Fatila:
Seems pretty wishful thinking. OTA could be a logo update ;p

Hopefully you are not in the same boat I am in. Don't try to Odin another Rom it will not work. Try to Odin CF Auto root. That worked for me until my phone stopped responding to anything. If that doesn't work you are with me which is in purgatory. No way out at this present time.

I posted specifics to another thread on the T-Mobile LG G2 not connecting/keeping connected to WiFi.

Once I lose the call I am on, it takes up to 10s to disconnect. Then, when I try to redial, a message shows up "To place a call, first turn off airplane mode". I have never used airplane mode. Once cancelled, I can retry the call and it lasts maybe 5 min.

Are there any forums that are LG specific? I couldn't find anything on their site. Google led me (back) here. I really want to get LG's attention so they will work on the radio.

We know that other retailers will be carrying the Nexus 5 sooner or later.

For those of us with memebership in the primeverse or for those that prefer to save on shipping & save *ahem* file our own taxes, avoid the google play limbo experience and/or use our chase amazon visa's, I present to you the Nexus 5 Amazon thread.

Let's keep on the lookout for nexus 5 developments relating to amazon and post any information here!

I've heard rumors that amazon will be stocking somewhere between 3-7 days.

However, the rep that I spoke to didn't appear to have any information about upcoming nexus 5 availability.

Here's my chat with the rep:

http://goo.gl/DMza0n

I also believe the stock alerts in this thread -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2503657 added amazon to it's monitor list.
[Nexus 5 General] unknown1205:
i have prime but still paid for expedited shipping and tax from the play store. i dont mind paying more to receive it earlier than to wait.
[Nexus 5 General] 666fff:
Pearl sure was useless. You should have told her a joke. Maybe ask her out on a date or something. Better luck next time bro.
[Nexus 5 General] bfspider:
I would have waited to purchase it from Amazon, however, I'll still get dinged with sales tax and only save $10 on shipping.

So, I'll just say the $10 was used for help out with the "instant gratification." :p
[Nexus 5 General] NovaSlim:
I put myself down for a 32GB black that ships in 2-3 weeks, if Amazon gets it before then I will cancel and order from Amazon.

Sure we can definitely start a hangout if we have enough people/interest.

I think quite a few people just bit the bullet and bought the nexus 5 on google play.
[Nexus 5 General] powersjt4:
When do you guys expect the N5 on Amazon?

I didn't follow the N4 when it came out. What do you think are we looking at days or weeks?
[Nexus 5 General] Ditto_B:
AFAIK, the N4 was not sold by Amazon. The only Google devices they sold were the Chromecast and the Nexus 7 (2013), which were both sold at the same price as the Play store and listed on Amazon on release day.
[Nexus 5 General] myorks1127:
If I don't get my damn shipping notice by Tuesday like I should I will hope that Amazon has it by then and order it overnight shipping and cancel/resell the playstore order, smh
[Nexus 5 General] ragnarokx:
Best Buy has an insane markup — hopefully Amazon doesn't follow suit.
[Nexus 5 General] Outrager:
I have a feeling that the $800 markup is a Sprint thing to "encourage" people to buy it on contract.

I hope they will sell the Unlocked version at the same price as the Play Store since they didn't put a markup on the Nexus 7, Chromecast, or Chromebooks.
[Nexus 5 General] ragnarokx:
I really hope so. Come to think of it, has Amazon ever officially sold an unlocked Nexus phone? I know they didn't sell the Nexus 4, I'm pretty sure they didn't sell the Galaxy Nexus, and I'm vaguely remembering them not carrying the Nexus S or Nexus One.
[Nexus 5 General] Outrager:
This will be their first time officially selling a Nexus phone I believe.

HOWEVER! What has me some what worried is that the pre-order page for Amazon UK's Nexus 5 is extremely overpriced. I really hope it's just a placeholder and they'll fix it when they get it in stock. http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-Nexus-5-...E&s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1383328580&sr=1-3 I would prefer using Amazon to get the phone since I have gift cards.
[Nexus 5 General] Ditto_B:
With BB selling the N5 for $800 and Amazon UK selling it for 520 GBP (~845 USD), I think it's unlikely Amazon US will sell it at the Play Store prices.
[Nexus 5 General] thfreedumb:
one of the posts on that reddit says they plan on pricing it like google. hopefully thats true.
[Nexus 5 General] adma84:
Do you mind linking? Thanks
[Nexus 5 General] thfreedumb:
Already linked in this topic
[Nexus 5 General] Outrager:
BB just lowered it down to $449.99 so it was just a placeholder price.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/nexus-5...d=2820006&st=nexus 5&cp=1&lp=1&contract_desc=

Maybe the $449.99 price is also a placeholder, but probably not.
[Nexus 5 General] McAwesome:
Imagine that's the price but I think it will be interesting to see if they sell a non carrier branded version for play prices. Probably doubtful but it would be funny. Maybe they could put them next to each other one with play price one with sprint.
[Nexus 5 General] Outrager:
My guess would be they hide the Off-Contract price in tiny print and only show the $150 contract price.
[Nexus 5 General] Kawaisa:

[Nexus 5 General] Lockeskidney:
does anyone know if buying from Amazon has an effect on our warranty? does the play store have a better warranty ?
[Nexus 5 General] mdandashly:
My understanding is that if you buy from GP, all warranty is handled through GP. If you buy from anywhere else, the warranty is handled by the manufacturer, in this case LG. That was my experience with the N7, at least.
[Nexus 5 General] freezer2k:
I believe it does
[Nexus 5 General] chiensibut:
maybe amazon will have n5 by next friday?
[Nexus 5 General] the1onewolf:
You can always take advantage of the google play warranty/rma process.

However, Amazon will also cover you (up to a certain period) if your device incurred shipping damage, is doa, isn't functionally properly and etc.

So if your phone craps out after a week or two of usage you can pick either Amazon or Google Play to replace your phone.

Dealing with Amazon saves you a bit of time but my experience with the Google RMA process is also positive.

With Amazon, you can do the whole thing online via an automated process, use their online live chat or phone in. Amazon will allow you to return your product for a full refund or they will replace your product first and give you return postage.

Google Play requires you to call in. The process isn't streamlined (I spent 1 hour on the phone, was transferred to 3 different departments and had to finally wait a day or two for another department to process/finalize the whole thing). They also sent me the phone first and gave me return postage. This was about 6 months in too so not bad :good:
[Nexus 5 General] F120:
It's on the UK site for £526 o.o

[Nexus 5 General] ragnarokx:
Just got a shipping confirmation email for my 32 GB N5 from Google Play. Looks like Amazon is not in the cards for me this time. Good luck to everyone else.
[Nexus 5 General] McAwesome:
I dont really know about the quality of the Google Warranty and have no return expierience with them but Amazon's return process is freaking amazing. I had a TV that I got form them awhile back and when I opened it up it had like a crack or something in the screen like you could see a big line across the screen. Mind you it arrived the day before I went on vacation so this is like two weeks later I figure it out. I just found the order in my history hit return checked the box for defective and they overnighted me a new tv and had ups send a guy with a label to my house. All I had to do was put the TV back in the box. As far as the Nexus 5 as long as it is a return that is not because of your damage then it's all free and super fast. With Google I dont know. I know on my Nex 7 FHD I had some camera issues and they wanted to trouble shoot a bunch before they would do RMA. Took about a week to even get the RMA done. Now if it hadn't been hardware issue and they fixed it that of course would have been better then a return because I was never without the device but with Amazon they dont try to fix the product with a bunch of troubleshooting they just send a new one and pick up the old one or process a refund which is also way fast. So IMO Amazon is better for warranty stuff. Of course this is assuming major defect within thirty days. So make what you will of that.

Yea I know. I figured some progress is better than no progress lol I hope they stock them soon.
[Nexus 5 General] Jmahoneyy:
I am going to hold off and see if that is a placeholder. Remember that the sprint N5 was listed for $800 but later went to the $450 it is at now. Over on reddit a guy chated with an amazon rep that said they would sell it at the same price as google play http://imgur.com/jpJroXO . Hoping it is true.
[Nexus 5 General] McAwesome:
This isn't Amazon BTW. This is their third party sellers. So I don't think anyone need get ask worked up about it. Amazon has not gotten the phone yet. I'll just about guarantee they sell at play store price. I'm about 90 percent certain they will.
[Nexus 5 General] Jocelyn:
What if they only sell it subsidized through Sprint via Amazon Wireless?

I have a feeling Sprint and Google have an agreement for it to not be sold at $350/$400 outside of the play store, but of course I have nothing to back this up empirically.
[Nexus 5 General] bozzykid:
That may be the only way they sell it. Some people are assuming they will sell the unlocked version but I don't think that is a foregone conclusion. It would make more sense if they only sold the carrier version (that is how they make their money anyways).
[Nexus 5 General] McAwesome:
Just saw this. Not sure how this guy know anything when no official word or even leaks have I found. But I sure hope he's right. http://baltimore.craigslist.org/mob/4168841380.html
[Nexus 5 General] 1stx2:
It would be nice if it came true. But unfortunately I have my doubts.
[Nexus 5 General] Jocelyn:
Yeah, he's already incorrect about at least three out of four companies he listed and at least two (Sprint and Best Buy) will not be carrying the 32GB.
[Nexus 5 General] McAwesome:
Also just saw this I'm fearful I'm getting off topic in this thread but I'm going with the all retailers will be able to release on the same day.

A local Google representative working in a Houston area Best Buy store shared that some new Google phones are set to arrive on November 7, with carrier activation earmarked for Sprint, and other carriers (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile) are able to activate the phone on their networks on or about November 10.

This is a quote from here http://www.examiner.com/article/new...-expected-to-capture-holiday-shopping-dollars
[Nexus 5 General] Jocelyn:
Seriously examiner.com and without a source? They just want you to load their ads :)
[Nexus 5 General] the1onewolf:
Thank goodness for ad blocker :good:

Oh wait, they still get money from the click anyways :/

If you pre-order the over priced (well maybe it's still listed incorrectly since it was originally listed at $800) nexus 5 from bestbuy it says the following:

Pre-Order Releases Friday, November 8, 2013

So that Craigslist guy is probably right.

I'm guessing everybody else gets the Nexus 5 around Friday.

Hopefully Amazon will as well :)

PRIME SHIPPING.

[Nexus 5 General] Towerdragon:
Stupid question I noticed that it says GSM will these be unlocked like the Google play phones or these be carrier specific?
[Nexus 5 General] thor6577:

[Nexus 5 General] thfreedumb:
This sounds like somehting for just Best Buy. I don't think anyone here plans on shopping there haha. However, I agree that it's a little unsettling watching best buy's moves and how they might relate to Amazon!
[Nexus 5 General] adma84:
Looks like they finally posted a section for the 32gb on Amazon. Still 3rd parties though

http://www.amazon.com/Google-Nexus-...e=UTF8&qid=1383602926&sr=1-5&keywords=nexus+5
[Nexus 5 General] adibeckett:
So I guess we will have to wait till this Friday?

I'll be very dissapointed if this isn't at the same price point as google. I'll probably will have to pay tax but I can save on the shipping and maybe get it faster.
