Hey Guys!
So the Nexus 4 has been released upon the masses with the first batch of the 16GB being sold out in 22 minutes and the 8GB being sold out a few hours later.
This thread will be a general area for Australian owners and potential owners to hang out, ask questions, get advice and get help quickly and within your time zone.
If anyone helps you or offers you advice don't forget to hit the ":good: Thanks" button in the bottom left corner of their post!
Please let me know if there's any important Australian specific information and I will put it here in the OP!
I'm buying one as soon as we are able to on the 13th. I purchased a nexus 7 on release day from the Google play store and received it 3 days after the funds were taken out of my bank account.
Generally they're pretty good with postage. I wouldn't trade my nexus 7 for anything!

Hey can any of you guys tell me how I can get the Nexus 4 in New Zealand from Australia? Don't have an Australian credit or debit card, btw.
Also what are the shipping costs and the price of the phone there? (16 GB)

Not sure about the price to ship to NZ but the shipping cost here for me when it was the N7 launch was $20 2 day shipping.

I'm from India, but my dad will be visiting Australia soon, and I can't wait for him to bring home a Nexus 4.
If a boxed piece is carried, would we have to pay customs/taxes? Any info on this anyone?
Buying one as soon as it hits the Play Store - my F5 key is unaware of the storm that's coming.

Same here, really hope that it is going to be released 12am on the 13th which means we will may - if they start shipping that day - have our orders start to be processed before the US even has the option to order hehe..
That is provided they do something similar to the Nexus 7 launch but in a more organised manner. Which I believe is the case.
(ie. Send large amounts of stock to each country that is selling it, wait for them all to get to respective countries, open orders, all send on the same day worldwide.)
I'm getting 16gb model a few days after launch (pay day)
Do they come from an Australian retailer or do our orders get shipped from the US?
My SGS2 has been good to me. My girlfriend will love it! I just can't pass up paying $399 outright for a phone that on paper, is probably the best on the market? You couldn't pay less than $400 for any other phone on our market could you?
Anywhere we can find a silicon case for the nexus4? Google releasing any at launch? Can't find any info

Someone in one of the other threads said that this will lauch with a bumper case for the nexus 4
I'm totally buying on the 13th, it just annoys me that I have to pay $40 more than in Canada, considering I've only been here for 2 months... WHY COULDN'T THEY RELEASE IT WITH THE NEXUS 7?!
I'm looking at upgrading from my Galaxy S1 to the Nexus 4 when it comes out. I really don't mind the lack of LTE since I'm on TPG (who don't give access to LTE anyway). I'm pretty sure they do give access to Optus HSPA+ though, which should give me a speed bump from my S1 anyhow.
The only thing I am unsure about is using the Nexus 4 as my main music player, which is one of the main things I use my S1 for, apart from the usual phone and mapping stuff. Registering (through an American proxy) for Google Music and uploading all my music seems like the easiest method of doing this, but I am worried whether all the music streaming I would do would chew through my 1.5GB data allowance per month. Can anyone speak to their experience with music streaming with their monthly data allowance? Any better methods than Google Music in Australia? I've tried Spotify and found they didn't really have all the music I would like to listen to, and their app was still Gingerbread styled... ew.
Another (minor) problem is travelling overseas and having music. Data is too costly if travelling, so I suppose I would be stuck using my S1 while travelling, which I would probably keep as a backup phone anyhow.
I'm going to get this in store rather than on the Play Store since I can't convince my parents to shop online so I'm hoping that JB Hi-Fi will sell this by the end of the month (Does anyone know if it will be in stores next week at all?). Otherwise, can anyone name any stores in Melbourne or Sydney that has a possibility of selling this?

hey guys im in melbourne, i convinced my dad and hes said he will order it for me on the 13th november. But probably not 12 am maybe in the evening after he goes home from work. How long do u guys think it will take until the nexus 4 stock for australia runs out? I am paranoid that it will run out when I get it (13 november evening) its probably not possible but im just paranoid :/

so I assume it will be sent from the same place meaning 2 to 5 days delivery on average
http://phandroid.com/2012/11/27/nexus-4-limit-2-units/
A person in the market thread posted his order and it showed he ordered 7 on the 13th he claims that they were for presents but who knows. Anyway after all the high priced ebay items i was hoping there would be a limit and google came through. It seems if you ordered 2 the first round you couldnt order the same variant 8 or 16 from the same account. So a single account could technically order 4 phones. Another article stated that those who ordered more than 2 would only be shipped 2. Has this happened to anyone? Did you really need more than 2? I for one hope a lot over ebayers got their plans foiled with this one.
Too little too late.
If they could get enough stock in the play store none of these greedy sellers would be able to mark up prices so much.

Really Disappointing..
Google Says Nexus 4 Will Not Ship Until After Christmas 2012
It's official, many more lusting after the Nexus 4 will never get their hands on the Google handset this December, which the internet giant said is sold out for the holidays and will not ship until January, at the earliest, next year.
Attempts by Android fans to secure the 8GB model was greeted with this notice on Google's Play Store: "We are out of inventory. Please check back soon." And when it comes for the 16GB variant, buyers are advised that shipment can only be processed over the next five to six weeks.
Searches for possible available units online were generally met by notices of back orders but for the desperate, opportunistic eBay offerings await them, that is if they're willing to fork out as much as $700 for a handset that Google sells at a starting price of less than $300.
Computerworld blamed the problematic Google supply chain for the Nexus 4 retail hiccup, which only compounded the disastrous manner that Play Store has been handling the issue so far.
"Google's Play Store continues to show the Nexus 4 as being 'sold out' with no option to place an order or be notified when more units become available," Computerworld said in a report.
The Nexus 4 drought could last way into the last month of Q1 2013, according to ProductReviews.net, which would be the situation for those that were unable to place online orders, at least in the U.S. market.
For the lucky ones, they "are looking at around a 2-month wait before the smartphone delivers," the tech blog site said.
Yet the best effort seen from Google in remedying the situation was its Play Store at one time "randomly switching between showing the phone as available and showing it as coming soon," Computerworld complained.
This debacle seemed to prove that Google has a lot to learn from Apple in terms of efficient supply chain management, Phillip Elmer-Dewitt of Fortune said.
It was pity that the Nexus 4, which is the product of close collaboration between Google and LG, "has become an object lesson in how not to stage a roll-out in advance of the holidays," Mr Elmer-Dewitt said.
Despite encountering serious bumps in the Nexus 4 global push out, Google saw its shares value spiking by six per cent since the JellyBean-powered phone became commercially available in Nov 13, said a NASDAQ blog.
The stock kick-ups proved that the market and consumers responded positively with Google's decision to dip its fingers a little deeper on hardware business though crucial improvements remain wanting, analysts said.
With fewer issues attending the Nexus launch, the tech giant could have done much better in so short a time, they added.
To contact the editor, e-mail: [email protected]
http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/4109...-4-will-ship-until-christmas.htm#.UL3oJeHzt50
That article is simply reading back to us what Google has listed on the Play Store and explaining to us that 5 to 6 weeks is, in fact, after Christmas.

I've searched but I didn't found any thread for the portuguese market.
So, I think that we needed this place to talk about the long waited Nexus 5.
Last year was very to us to get the Nexus 4 (at least at a fair price). Due to the stock crash only in January or February it was available at the main stores like Fnac or MediaMarkt but priced over 550€.
I hope that this year we could have it a lot earlier. Last year Google released some of his services in our country, like books or music. I hope (ok, I haven't that much hope...) they carry on launching their services so that we could have Play Devices but it is unlikely.
Lets see what comes and which retailers would sold it. And we'll alwways have services like forward2me and, my favorite, friends all over Europe :laugh:

I approve of this post. I've also looked around the Nexus 5 forum and only found a way that involves using Tor and setting up a fake Google account, then buying from the UK, sending to a UK address and having the phone re-shipped to Portugal. This is way too much of a hassle for me and I can't say I fully trust it to work or be particularly cheap.
If anyone knows of a reputable online retailer that stocks the Nexus 5 and ships to Portugal, can you give us a heads up please? Or if you come up with an easier way of getting this candy into our hands?
Handtec has it on pre-sale with delivery expected arround November 11th. It's a litle pricey, it'sm about 359£ to the 16GB and about 401£ to the 32GB version. I'm not sure if we must add shipment dosts to Portugal but if so I don't that is over 10€.
I've read on another forum that forward2me has a special to this device that theeirselves bought the device and just ship it to you but needs to check this.
Thanks, ToneJeco. I'll check out those options. It's a bit of a markup compared to the £299 on Google Play or £295 at Carphone Warehouse, but who knows?

Personally, I'm going to try one of the The Phone House stores (The Phone House = Carphone Warehouse in Portugal, and other countries) and see if they could get a Nexus 5 in. Somehow.
I might do that as well. Did it in Media Markt already (they'll warn me if and when they get the Nexus 5), as they previously had the Nexus 4 for some time.

Fnac.pt will unveil the nexus 5 next week, so next week we'll know if it's an official LG launch or not.
If it is the phone will be available in practically every major chain.
For those thinking about buying via playstore and forward2me it's much cheaper to buy from carphone warehouse (less hassle with mbnet declines, free postage to forward2me and no need for personal shopping)

i think ill have to do it like a i did with my nexus 4.
find a friend in uk and ask them to buy it and send it to me... its cheaper...
but first i need to sell my n4, money isnt that much in my pocket...
but good idea to start a thread for our contry...
Managed to grab two 16GB Nexus 5 (BLK) directly from the German Play Store, through a work colleague based in Germany and should have 'em with me sometime during next week. :victory: :fingers-crossed:

Really ?! Because I've called FNAC today after reading your post and they had no idea what the heck I was talking about. And based in a past experience, ordering from Carphone Warehouse (even to a UK forwarding address) was actually a PITA.

The answer given by FNAC's representative wasn't, well... Too convincing. But yeah... Let's see what happens next week and, above all, how much they will ask for it.
I've ordered a black 32Gb one from the UK play store... Well, not me, but a friend of mine who's working in London.. He will then send it to me through Royal mail. I hope to have it by the 11th or 12th of November..!

I'm a litle afraid of Fanc's prices since last year they sold Nexus 4 @ 600€ but things may be diferent if LG make it official. I hope so since they seem to be trying hard to push their image and get their space in the smartphone's market with G2. A Nexus device is always a good way to increase that recognition.
I almost bought N5 this weekend but I believe is better to chill a bit and wait, I really have no hurge so I'll wait to see how the things evolve and how will be the availability here in Portugal. But that price from carphone is very tempting

Nope, you got the same problem. LG wanted to charge 600 for the N4. They'll probably do the same for the N5. So, even if it's an official release, we'll have it for 600€ over at FNAC.

Problem is, it isn't that easy to get CPW to send you anything to Portugal, even through a UK forwarding address. Firstly, because you need a credit or debit card associated to an UK billing address (I don't think you can do that with MBNet) and secondly, you need a real UK mobile phone number, something that services like Forward2me do not provide.
And I highly doubt FNAC Portugal will have the Nexus 5 in the coming week as a representative stated at FNAC's facebook page. Right now, the availability of the Nexus 5 in B&M stores isn't a reality with CPW being one of the very few exceptions so it's highly unlikely they'll have it in stock this week. But let's see what happens.
Lg has several country wide launches scheduled for this week, so I don't thing that's so unlikely

Hi everyone.
If I buy a Nexus 5 in the UK to use in Portugal (I have a friend in London that can buy it) will all radios work correctly in Portugal? I know GSM is the same in all Europe but what about 3G LTE. Can anyone confirm or tell me how I can check it?
I am a new Tmo customer and wanting the N6, was with you all refreshing and trying to preorder last week. I am in a torn on what I want to do right now, trying to figure out if I even want to try to order from google today or Tmo next wed.
?'s (1) Is Play store support that much better then Tmo's support???
(2) How are Tmo's online orders. Want a midnight blue 64gb, so I will have to order online.
(3) Does anyone know when orders usually go live online at tmo?
(4) Thinking I want to insure phone, is Jump better then off carrier options for insurance and what are some good options there?
I'm sure there are many other things to consider, so I'm basically trying to start a conversation on pros and cons of each route. Tmo is releasing next wed, so wondering if I'm being an impulsive, impatient child trying to order today. I have absolutely zero experience ordering from tmo or google.

1.) Depends if you want to ship your device in for RMA or not. With tmo support you get an overnight replacement same as google.
2.) Not sure when their online orders go live but if you want that version online should be fine unless their servers get bogged by users. I believe the iPhone release broke their servers . you can also call them and then can order it for you
3.) Jump offers you extended warranty past the one year google offers. Which means after the year if they still have return devices to send you they can send them to you if you have issues with your phone. Jump also allows you to trade in that device for another in the future . I'd still research other insurance providers in case you are looking for other things. I never order online and rather walk u to a store just because if something wrong happens I can walk right in, get it exchanged for a new one without having to wait for another in the mail. Also I can just pay for it same day and use it same day.

Thinking I need to just wait. There are a lot of other factors that lean me towards waiting too. I already have our tax exempt status registered through tmobile, with google, have to pay tax then send stuff in to get it refunded afterwards. Was thinking about ordering through google and then just canceling if able to preorder through tmo that day. Seems to me like, other than being able to relax and know you have one ordered, there is no real advantage to ordering from google as opposed to tmo.

Are the carrier versions the same at the google play store version like the N5 was? I want to just go through TMobile too but don't want any bloatware on it.

Yes and No....I think.....From what I have taken from around the web, android 5.0 lets carriers install their apps automatically when their particular sim is inserted, however, it is my understanding that these can be deleted as well.
So my understanding is, both phones are the same, they only change once the sim is put in it. So if tmo n6's come with sim already in it, then they may come with bloat, but it will be able to be deleted. I am no expert by any stretch of the imagination, so, I could be mistaken here, but this is how I interpreted what I have read.
Correct. The only app downloaded on our N6 is My T-Mobile when you turn on your device. It is deletable though.
anyone hear any info on a 100% positive release date in stores? from what everyone is saying and this http://newsroom.t-mobile.com/news/t...-to-its-data-strong-network-this-november.htm posted in tmobiles official blog site, november 12th seems to be the day. but i called about 10 different tmobile stores in pittsburgh today and none of them can give a definitive answer as to the 12th being the day that stores will begin to sell them. the nexus 4 and 5 were both sold out on their respective release dates in stores here and i don't want to miss out on it once again. i'm hoping that a pre-order will go live or they will notify me before then. 2 stores that i called actually told me that they would go live on tmobile.com on the 12th but stores won't be getting them until the 15th or 16th(saturday or sunday) which basically tells me that they don't know what they're talking about. i'm itching to use my jump upgrade and i'm not completely decided on whether i'm getting the note 4 or nexus 6. i guess i'll wait this out a little longer.

There is no way that stores will have it available before Google ships those pre-orders. The Galaxy Gear S was suppose to release today to all carriers but after checking with 4 local T-Mobile stores in my area none had it yet. So I really highly doubt they'll have it on the 12th.

Called two stores. They'll have it the 12th. Tmonews released leaked roadmap and it was Aldo on the 12th. It could be google has plans to ship pre orders to arrive in the 12th. There's also a rumor the ota for other devices starts on the 12th.

Cool so when you grab one take pics and come on here and post them. You'll have it before the rest of use that pre-ordered on the Playstore.
