N4 Tuesday (Nov 20th) - Nexus 4 General

I noticed that many people, including myself, will be receiving their N4 on tuesday november 20th.
I have a feeling this wave of N4s may be the second batch (both Tmo and Playstore shipments).
So when we all get our "Tuesday N4", be sure to post up any and all issues or non-issues that differ from the current Nexus 4 owners thus far.
Plus show your excitement! :victory:
"What to Look for List" is in first comment
To clear up some confusion:
This pertains to those who had ordered their Nexus 4 either after sold out (this can be accomplished for people on Tmo through the phone or online)
and had gotten the BACKORDER email. And to those that mysteriously got "pre-ordered" or drastically delayed from play store. etc etc etc
So this thread is for the people who are scheduled to receive it on monday/tuesday

Here are some issues that we need to look for:
Yes/No - Screen Yellowing
Yes/No - Rattling
Yes/No - High Pitch or Static noise coming from handset
Yes/No - Random Reboots
Yes/No - Squeaky Power Button
Yes/No - Wobbly Volume Rocker
Yes/No - Low Touchscreen Sensitivity (on super light taps)
Yes/No -
Yes/No -
Common Issues that are not flaws
- Really hot. Because Glass
- Change in color temperature at different viewing angles. Because IPS
Post up other common issues that I should add to the "look for" list

monday people should be included in here as well. i just labeled it N4 Tuesday since Ive seen the majority of people stating they will receive on that day

can someone help me understand this..
Since last november 13th, everyone was saying that for people who got BO and people who couldnt buy it, they will be able to buy it in 3 weeks (next batch).
Now how is this possible? You are saying that on tuesday Google Play will be selling nexus 4 (i.e 2nd batch?
If it is true, i will be most happyiest person. :victory:

I recall reading a post on this forum that someone called the CSR (what's new, eh) and the CSR told him that they are actually working on prioritizing the orders (i.e People who bought multiple phones won't get all that they ordered immediately) to ensure that others who were more modest in their orders get theirs as well. This is why they said that the shipment would take up to 3 weeks cos they need to sift through every order. However, I'm still quite unclear with the definition of 1st and 2nd batch. I would prefer to think that the 2nd batch is just part of the 1st and is part of the newly sorted orders they've worked out over the weekend.

Picking up mine tomorrow morning.

I have a feeling that this is all gonna be part of the first batch still since they are still trying to get orders out from the initial sale, and that when Google sells the Nexus again on their site then THAT will be the second batch.

I just canceled my order earlier today. I'm going to err on the side of patience just let everyone else iron out all the kinks. Maybe treat myself to an on time Christmas present as opposed to my originally planned early one.

Mine is scheduled to arrive tomorrow evening. This should all be the same batch, just poor logistics on Google's part.

so just to be clear, people who couldnt order on november 13th, can order on tuesday nov 20th.
Also, when do they get rid of re-stocking fee (15%)?

I believe he is talking about people who already ordered receiving theirs on the 20th.

This pertains to those who had ordered their Nexus 4 either after sold out (this can be accomplished for people on Tmo through the phone or online) and had gotten the BACKORDER email. And to those that mysteriously got "pre-ordered" or drastically delayed from play store.
**So this thread is for the people who are scheduled to receive it on monday/tuesday
Now from what I heard, Tmobile will have more between the 20th and the 22nd. And I heard (rumor) that the play store will have the next batch between the same dates

mine is scheduled for delivery tomorrow late afternoon. if i choose to do will call (pick up UPS facility), UPS site says it won't be ready until Tuesday, 11/20.
wtf...?

Where ate you getting these rumors from? If they are only rumors then why shows them? Rumors are what caused me to stay up all night for a midnight release on the 13th..

Gamestop Nexus 7 confirmed in stock

Just confirmed with a personal friend of mine that is a manager of a gamestop. They currently have their stock of Nexus 7s in stock and ready to be sold but are waiting on Asus to give a street date for them. :good:
Already confirmed and there is a topic for this.
Good luck with that. Asus and Google won't want to upset those that ordered at the announcement online, when they could have walked to the end of the road and picked one up instore quicker.
Expect store units to be delayed until after the initial shipments of online ordered have been dispatched to prevent a PR nightmare.

Well just called to confirm my preorder at gamestop. They asked when I preordered and since I was the first one to preorder they said mine is available for pickup tomorrow. Apparently not all of the preorders will be filled tomorrow and it depends on where in line you are. There has been many many cases of devices being available earlier at a local store than people received them direct from the manufacturer. This looks to be the same :highfive:

I ordered mine on July 7th, so I'm thinking I have to wait a little while :crying:
This is great news! I hope J&R ships mine in the next week then!
I'm kinda surprised cause I have heard about other game stops saying July 31 and emails that have said not to sell it.

I suggest you get there at opening, and don't give them time to read their corporate EMails.
That's my plan. I asked if they were doing a midnight release and I was told this isn't big enough for that. I would be there waiting inline.

I pre-ordered on June 26th (thru the Play Store) just after the Nexus 7 was announced at Google I/O. It grieves me to know that I would have been better off waiting two days and ordered thru GameStop after it was announced that they would be selling the Nexus 7 Tablet, because waiting two more days to place the order would have gotten the tablet in my hands faster. (This is going to make for some really bad PR for Google...)
Edit: Had the wrong date of July 4th... (wrote from memory and remember a big event on July 4 - LHC announcement of finding the Higgs partical... Somehow crossed that with the Google I/O event the previous week)

Game stop in Tampa Brandon Fl is selling them tomorrow
For a fact don't believe me call 813-657-1611 I am ****ing pissed I will never order anything from Google again

NOBODY is getting it until google and asus announce the official date.. unless you went to Google I/O... they cant and will not give it up before its official.. maybe that is a big hint that tomorrow might be the day, who knows. all i know is that even if it is tomorrow, my local gamestop hasnt recieved their shipment yet, so i wont even recieve mine unless it comes tonight (IF it comes out tomorrow)
So half the GameStops are saying come and pick up and half are saying we were told we have to hold them so I guess you just have to be lucky

Official GameStop Thread

I wanted to make a thread where people (primarily second and third wave pre-orders) can post when their Nexus 7 was shipped to their Gamestop for pickup.
I ordered mine July 20th & have yet to hear from them about the status.

I preordered mine on July 15 and was told that I was on the third wave but actually on the second wave and got mine on the 25th and have not put it down since lol. I would recommend calling them and seeing where yours is.

Ordered mine on the 15th, still have't heard anything.
I called them today and they said they probably won't be getting them till October (in store).
I don't know about preorders but I'd rather not deal with that crap. There are plenty of other places to buy it from and probably get it sooner.

Not when all you have is Gamestop credit
I think I ordered mine on the 14th, but I know I'm in the second wave of preorders. I called on Saturday and the guy I spoke with said they'd be in later this week. Then I called again yesterday and whoever answered didn't want to give a date, just saying that they'd be in whenever everybody else started getting another shipment. Hope the first guy is right, but the second guy knew specifically of the screen separation issue, so he was probably more knowledgeable.
The only reason I'm holding out is because I'm using some store credit from my old iPod touch. I had actually bought one from Staples, but returned it at the end of the 14 day window after it developed the screen separation problem (along the bottom, oddly enough). Otherwise, I would have just sold the GameStop one on eBay if they were still worth $300+ on there once it came in. I took the first guy at his word in making that decision, so here's hoping I'm not without one for too long.
got my second one
I didn't preorder one and got it the 2nd day it came out at GameStop(last one in area). It had a screen seperation issue and they ordered me a new one that came in a week later. The new one is great and I got another $10 from Google wallet.
Preordered mine on that 17th of July and have been calling every week to find out any information. I was told that I was going to get it by August 7th when I preordered, but was just trying to have some hope that I'd be getting it sooner. If it wasn't for the fact that I got it for free by getting rid of my wife's old iPhone 4 I would've bought it from somewhere else a long time ago.
Same here, preordered on the 17th, was told it would come in late last week. Called Monday and was told August 7 instead. I could have gotten one at Macmall B&M downtown but since I had tradein at Gamestop I gotta wait.
I ordered mine on July 14th and received a call on July 24th to pick up which I believe is the second wave. So far, no problems on my tablet.
Got mine from GameStop. I Preordered then it took about 10 ten to get to the store. The way the store rep explained it to me was the store won't keep it in stock in store. You go in and preorder it and they will order it and it will come in one of their weekly shipments.

Ordered from GameStop on July 15th and last time I called they said late September. I have in the mean time picked one up from Staples. Going to sell the one from GameStop to a buddy.

That's what they told me right before I got mine from Staples (I've returned it since then), which was on the 17th. That was right when Google was overwhelmed by demand for the 16 GB version; my guess is some higher-up put a really conservative estimate in the system to keep people's expectations low.
I'm hoping it comes this weekend, because it's the sales tax holiday in NC from Friday to Sunday and tablets qualify. If not, I might still go in and try to pay for it over the weekend, even if it's not in yet.
ordered mine on the 15th, it came in on the 25th. he said it was his second wave of shipments.
BIG update for me:
Ordered the 20th from Gamestop. Got off the phone today with them, gave them my info, and it is in transit scheduled for early next week

Same story for me with the South Blvd. and Woodlawn location in Charlotte, NC (ordered 7/14). The guy on the phone told me an email went out this morning saying a big shipment is on its way. Didn't say who all was on that email, but it sounded like a lot of people are getting theirs next week.
I saw a guy from Chicago over in the main thread saying he ordered his on the 22nd and got it today. Sounds like there's no real consistency with who gets theirs when, but it looks like the wait is almost over. :fingers-crossed:
Preordered July 19... Haven't heard anything quite yet. Hell the csr didn't even have an estimated date other than eventually. But I preorder enough through one particular store to know that store's employees aren't completely incompetent.
On edit: stopped in on a hunch and it turns out that mine came in this morning. Woot!
|-|-|
Mine is in!!!!!!!! Going now to get it.
Pre ordered mine on the 7th. My receipt originally said Second Wave 8/7. On the 13th I got a call from the GS Guy saying my Nexus 7 was ready for pickup. Seemed like I was the only one in my city to get one, or one of few. There were no advertisements in the store.
I feel like I'm the only one waiting anymore. I called today to ask and they said they should be getting a big shipment in tomorrow and hopefully mine will be on it. I just hope if I have any issues with mine it won't be this big of a hassle to get a replacement.

[Official] Play Store orders & shipping thread!

Updated Dec 6 1:30AM EST
Below is specific only to the orders from the first day the Nexus 4 was live.
Limbo 1 order fulfillment: ~99%
Limbo 2 order fulfillment: ~99%
Limbo 3 order fulfillment: ~91% (the majority of orders fall into this category)
"fulfillment" = shipped
Above is my educated guess on the status of the shipments that have been going out. I'm constantly tracking this and several other sources for continuing information.
Current status of orders and shipments:
Points below are confirmed:
First major batch shipped Nov 19 (upgraded to Next Day Air).
All orders that took place on the 13th that were back-ordered will be upgraded to Next Day Air for free.
Play Store Customer Service do not have any relevant information about your order. Calling them is nothing short of a complete waste of time.
Orders have not been shipped on a first-come first-serve basis. There is no pattern to the shipments, it is seemingly random. We have indisputable evidence of this.
Addendum to above: It is believed that we are finally going in order. Some of the later orders were shipped first due to an incomplete manifest.
Many people have noticed the last updated date on the Play orders page has changed. No one is certain yet what this might mean.
Points below are likely:
Logistics have been outsourced to UPS.
Order mechanics "slid" during the initial rush of the first few minutes of the product going live. This caused several issues (including an incomplete manifest sent to UPS).
Status of your order (limbos):
1) Order placed. No e-mail of any kind (including order confirmation) received.
2) Order placed. Order confirmation received. No other e-mail of any kind received.
3) Order placed. Order confirmation received. Back-order e-mail received.

Tentative US order time: 09:00AM PST
Changed "confirmed" to "tentative". 09:00AM PST is most likely, but you should be watching out regardless.
These are some of my favorite threads here! We all heard that the Nexus 4 is now official but I'd wager that a lot of us are waiting for preorders to open up on the Play Store.
Post the usual "I ordered!" "It shipped!" etc. here! I, personally, cannot wait for this guy. Just sold my S3 for it.
I did call Google to ask if they were going to open pre-orders for the device. Doesn't look like it this time around, but I was told that you will be able to purchase on November 13th and that stock would start shipping "either on the 13th or the 17th," whatever that means.
Current information (as of Nov 12):
No one knows what time the purchase will go live.
Best guesses are sometime in the morning of the 13th (office hours), or at 00:00 PST. I'm personally leaning toward the former. (NEW: see below)
There will be no pre-order on the Play Store.
Check here for specific country availability.
Check here for more information on shipping and handling for your country.
A Virtual Credit Card (VCC) cannot be used with your purchase in the device store. Also, at this time, the country of your credit card must match the the country to which you're shipping.
Taxable charges, if any, depend on what state you're ordering from.
We do not know what shipping options will be available. Right now, only 2-day shipping is confirmed. We are hopeful for an overnight option at launch.
News added Nov 10:
Android Police got a little clarification from Google-- the rep said pretty much exactly what we've been assuming for the past couple of weeks. They also agree with me that the button will be more likely to go live in the morning sometime, rather than at midnight. See source here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...-shipments-start-november-13th-no-pre-orders/
News added Nov 13:
A German Google employee has revealed that the Nexus 4 should be selling at "around breakfast time" in Germany. He also mentioned that would be about 8-9AM. This would lead us to believe that the order form will go live at 0:00PST as originally anticipated. Germany is 9 hours ahead of Pacific Standard Time-- aka, 2AM Central, 3AM EST.[/url]
im guessing on nov 13th but they really didnt say.
From the Play Store:
Coming soon!
Available for purchase on Tuesday, Nov. 13th

Sure. But the Play Store says you can purchase it on the 13th.
I would imagine that means a direct purchase. It doesnt mention when pre-orders will start. I for one will definitely be pre-ordering (if possible) this phone. Just hope I can get around £160 for my HTC Desire HD with lots of cases and accessories included

I'll most definitely be getting one of these. The price is good, it looks good, and I really dig the wireless charging. I've many times where I'd just put my phone on my desk, forgot to connect the charger, and fall asleep just to wake up with a (mostly) depleted battery. Finally a worthy replacement for my ageing Nexus one.

It's not too big of a concern. The wireless charging is a more of a luxury than anything. The most important thing is the option is available; the aftermarket solutions either adds thickness or look just plain ugly.

POLL: Did you manage to successfully order the Nexus 4 from Google Play on Nov 13th?

So I'm creating this thread to try and determine a percentage value (%) for how many people were actually able to successfully order the new Nexus 4 device on the Launch Date (Nov 13th, 2012) from the Google Play Store.
NOTE: BTW if you picked up your phone from a retail store/t-mobile/O2(UK) etc, then please do not vote, this is for Google Play Store orders only.
If you successfully ordered 1 or more Nexus 4 devices, then click YES.
If you encountered errors/out of stock/coming soon/ or any sort of processing error which resulted in you not managing to order a device. Then, click NO
Thank You
I'm in Toronto, Canada and was unable to order the Nexus 4 from Google Play, due to server errors.
I tried to order from about 11:36am to 12 noon with no success.
I was able to order mine at 8:34 pacific here in Washington state.
I'm in Germany, I managed to get one after a series of errors. I actually thought I hadn't made it also but then saw an email confirmation later.
But it's not been shipped yet.. :crying:
(00:33 UTC-8)
I was able to order one are 1:00PM EST. Was unsuccessful earlier, but kept refreshing and using Page Monitor Chrome extension. Got a 16GB N4 that is scheduled to ship before the week is over.

Had exactly the same experience as everyone else, errors galore on the order process, tried adding the bumper, the 16gb and 8gb, ended up getting an order for the 8gb and bumper! My credit card shows the amount as pending to come out, and Google wallet says shipping 15th.
Whoop whoop! Come on Google, redeem yourselves with the order process for those who managed to get through the initial mess!

UPS Lost/stole my Nexus 5

So i ordered a Nexus 5 on the 20th of January. Google promptly shipped it out. I was supposed to receive it on the 24th of January, the tracker showed Out for delivery by today (Coming out of Concord, ON). I waited all day at home, no package. I called UPS to find out whats going on, the rep informed me that the package will be delivered on Monday January 27th, I would receive an "assurance" call on January 27 from UPS to assure me that my package will be delivered that day, I did not get that assurance call. On Monday, the tracker showed the same thing Out for delivery (Coming out of Concord, ON), the entire day passes, and still no package.
If UPS had lost my package they should inform me, they have all my information on hand, but they never bothered to do so. OK, so I call UPS and explain the situation to the customer service rep, who informs that they don't know where my package is, last known location was Concord ON on January 24th and to get my shipper to open a lost package investigation with UPS.
At this point, I called Google to inform them of the situation who proceeded with opening an "investigation" with UPS to figure out where my package is. I was given 2 options from Google
(1) one is to open an investigation to figure out where my Nexus 5
(2) cancel my order and re-order with Google (which I can't do because the Nexus 5 16GB model is out of stock on their website)

tl;dr : UPS lost/stole my Nexus 5. The last known location is Concord, ON. They do not know where my package is beyond that.
While that does suck, Google has SUPERB customer service and you have nothing to worry about; except a slightly longer wait than you might have desired. UPS also is usually really good, so if a theft/loss did occur on their part, I'm sure they'll take care of you as well.
I know how you feel. Ordered mines on the 18th and it finally came in yesterday, box was ripped up, phone gone. stupid ups. The best of luck to you!

... I'm in exactly, and I mean exactly the same boat. My Nexus was supposed to be delivered on the 28th. It made it to Concord Ontario no problem then sat there.
The tracking said it was on the truck and would be delivered today, the 29th. That was in the morning. It's now after 9pm and tracking still says the same... I'm worried now.

Had this happen with USPS many times with ordering stuff online. The tracking will say "delivered" however was not in my mailbox. I eventually get my package however one time I bought g2x from eBay gave em my old shipping address by mistake. As my old address was default by paypal. Called USPS and they said they personally held my package. And that it was being sent to out to me. Well that never happened and in hindsite glad I didn't get that phone as it turns out that was a POS phone lol. Still sucked to pay $150 and nothing usps or eBay/paypal could do for me except say sorry. Of course the seller didn't insure my package

That is really crappy man, sorry to say so, but chances are your phone is also missing. Give UPS a call to confirm, don't leave it to chance. The tracker keeps saying the package will be delivered today, until you report it missing.
To make the best of a crappy situation Google customer service is pretty good. If UPS says missing, launch an investigation with Google. They will refund your order if you choose to go that route.
I'm still waiting on an answer from Google to see what they found from their investigation.

... Ok, so phoning UPS is definitely the first step right? Even though they won't do anything, they need to confirm that it's missing. Only after its confirmed missing, phone Google.
Will start the process in the morning I guess. Sheesh... What a let down.

Yes. Call ups to confirm missing/stolen phone. Then call Google and launch a missing phone investigation.

Stealing phones is pretty stupid thing to do since Google can easily block stolen phones from network use

Isn't the fault on your part as well?

Solutions have been given
Contact UPS, then contact Google. Google should have insured the package for its worth
Good luck
