UK - Second Batch / Non-Play Store Thread - Nexus 4 General

So, will you be holding out for the second batch from the Play store or purchasing from somewhere else?
I've called Google a couple of times and been given no definite answer very vague in fact. 'Check online'
I've phoned and called into CarPhoneWarehouse local to me, 'N4, don't know, no idea'
Where else have you tried?
Dates for availability?
Prices?

I'm waiting oin mine to be dispacthed but I do believe Google are starting to say 2 weeks a lot more consistently in their emails. Not the greatest of info but I hope it's a start.. :good:

Well I didn't get one so I'm holding for the next Batch.
Went to my local CPW this morning they did have them in stock but they for contact only.
I did get to play around with one. I must say its a big stop up from the plastic galaxy nexus

They will be selling it SIM-free, but they're not sure when. They're waiting for the green light from HQ and they're waiting for more stock to come in. Because they're not sure when they're selling they are also unsure of pricing. I have been told £349.99 directly but there are rumours it's going to be £389.99, as you can see from the graph above.

CES 2013

Just got my CES ticket! Totally psyched.
Anyone else going?
If no, i'll happily cover the event for you guys =D
If yes, how about a meetup? Would be epic to meet some of you guys.
no-one, huh? :/
A coverage of the event would do for me. Thanks.
||I'm just a PM away for help||
Oh it would only cost me about 5000 euros to go there. No biggy, I have a few flecks of dust in an old sock somewhere....
A coverage will do just fine.
Yeah, I lucked out by registering early enough that the tickets were free. The drive from SoCal to Vegas just isn't that bad, and my uncle LOVES Vegas so I was able to 'borrow' some of his 'frequent hotel miles ' (whatever they're actually called ) so its really cheap.
Sadly I'm fairly hard up for money, so I (probably) can't afford a decent camera.... Hopefully I'll be getting a galaxy note ii by then tho, and I plan on just switching on Google+ instant upload for my pictures so anyone who's interested can check it out.
Now what I really want is a galaxy camera, but I think that's asking for a bit much.
Trying to get a new phone for the event..... Saving up for a Note II...
Figured I'd bump this.....
Is no one else going? :/
How much are the tickets? And how'd you get it for free?

If you register early enough they're free. I registered as soon as registration opened. They get progressively more expensive as time goes by though, so that means that if tickets are even still available they're gonna cost an arm and a leg.
Ill check how much they cost now (if they're still available) when I get home.

? Possible White Nexus 4 @ Carphone Warehouse? UK

I went into my local CPW yesterday to ask about the availability of the N4 this week, the girl I spoke to looked it up (big screen flashing up warning NOT to give customers any info and to keep stock in the back etc)
I asked if she could look up the price for SIM fee and she tried another approach, searching on the system for lg nexus 4, a simple screen popped up with the price for 2 nexus 4's.... now, unless my eyes deceived me, I saw one for "nexus 4" and one for "nexus 4 White" (both said £389.99 or similar)
Obviously as I wasn't looking for that info it didn't really sink in until a moment or two later so by that time the screen had been closed etc.... just wondering if anyone had seen anything similar? I don't want to cause any undue excitement, pant wetting etc but surely it's not beyond the realms of possibility? I had a quick search but couldn't see any mention of it...
Anybody? Maybe the o2 exclusivity thing has the white one as part of it?
I hate white phones so not interested, but one of you lot might be into it!
We will find out tomorrow I suppose, but you heard it here first eh!
(....probably been old news for a while or complete rubbish so slinks off to cry....)

Yeah there was a picture on Twitter a while back showing a CPW display that had both black and white options on it.

Ah, it's right enough then... I thought for a second I'd imagined it. I read that article too, must have been before the update with the white option.
Sorry for the pointless post then!

Strange we haven't heard anything official from either Google or LG about it... Wonder how it looks, as my Gnex is the white version.
Please continue discussion here

Got the Nexus 7 when first came out, had to be replaced because it was faulty and as soon I got this I put it inside a case and never seen the back of it again. Until today.
Never dropped it or opened it. I would like to get a pogo pin dock for it.
Has anyone seen anything like it?
Bought it from tesco UK, who should I contact for warranty?
Thanks
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
It's time for another replacement if you in fact want a pogo dock for it.
RMA, my friend, RMA.
[It makes me laugh. A lot.]
Yea RMA bro.
That being said, lol at the hole.
Beamed from my Maguro.

All your legal rights are against the retailer.
Sucks. Contact the retailer you bought it from.
Practical question: is there a POGO dock for this available? ...

If you want it sorted quickly, exchange it at the tesco direct collection desk (Tesco Extra stores). This is what I did and was hassle free.
At least here in the states local Walmart stores normally has a 15 day return policy. Besides Christmas time when they extend that time frame.
I am not sure how the return policies work in the UK. But if you are within the days they allow you to return an item. You should be able to exchange the device for new one.
If you are past the time they allow you to return an item. You have no choice but to send in the device under RMA.
If you bought the device through google you have to ask them for replacement. If you bought the device through a retail store you'll have to ask a Asus for replacement.
I hope this answers your question.

You made me take mine out of the case and look at it

[Q] Should I ask for a replacement? And another Q.

So! Today my One arrived. I love it, it's a *huge* upgrade to my previous phone (iP4) and I'm loving Android so far.
But. It's not perfect.
I don't have a lens that'll show the problems, unfortunately. I could really do with investing in a macro lens or something!
So, for now, y'all will have to make do with some imagination and a poorly photoshopped stock image of the One.

Green = Some of the white plastic down the left side is bulging out. By approximately 0.25mm (I know, I can't believe I actually measured it either), it's enough to slide a fingernail between the plastic and the screen's bezel.
Red = Backlight from capacitive buttons is leaking through where the bezel joins the screen.
As for my other question, how do HTC returns 'work'? Is it via a prepaid delivery to HTC or do you have to pay postage etc?
How did you get your phone. My carrier (three uk) are good, getting my 4th replacement tomorrow, you give the faulty phone to the courier that delivers it's replacement.

I got mine online, from a store called flubit.com, I've emailed them to ask who their supplier is. It's the supplier who I'd return it to.
I'm guessing it might be P4U, but I'll have to wait for an email from the guys at Flubit.
Thanks for answering the question re: the courier btw!
This can be closed now; ParcelFarce are coming to pick up my faulty unit on Monday, and I'll be getting the replacement around the 19th-25th.
While I wait for them to pick it up, I'll continue playing with my HTC One.
I'm loving it so far, it's an amazing phone. Albeit a slightly faulty one. ^^;

Moto screwed up...in a good way!

So my order for the Motoshare projector got goofed up. The had a completely wrong address. I called Motorola, and they fixed it. However I received two emails for my rebate. Sure enough, I have two of the Motoshare projectors! Thanks Motorola!

How you liking the projector? I've tried finding a local store to check it out. But no one has one that works or is charged. And I had gotten denied for my first promo request. I called them and they fixed it, I just got the shipped email. Also do you know if it's the same model # as the retail one or is it like a cheapened version of it?

I was going to buy a small tv for my room. Ended up trying the projector and it is good enough to the point I am not buying the tv. I generally watch an hour of Hulu or Netflix before bed. So it works out.

Nice, good to know. I'm getting mine on Monday according to Fedex. I'm planning on using it for date nights with the GF and friends.
That should work nicely then. Hopefully the lamp life is pretty long.
Maybe easy to change the bulb? I never bothered to see if it could be taken apart. Give me a sec and I'll check
