last years screen shot from carphone had nexus 4 white in stock so i wouldnt put to much faith into them...

Right, I just phoned Gary at CW.
He didn't have any in stock straight away, but when i told him to search LGNEXUS5WHIT he saw it on the screen,....he was pretty shocked that I knew what he should search.
Anyway, he said they are in stock but there's nothing he can do about reserving it etc.
he game me his number and name and said he'd be happy to keep checking. I told him he'll probably be inundated with calls tonight enquiring anyway.

I think I remember that as well
I'm going to go ahead and get excited about this anyways :highfive:

Ok so starting to get a little worried here.
They show 2 versions available (Black and Black & White) but are both 16GB versions? I mean what are the chances Google will launch 4 different versions of this phone in both colors and both in 16 & 32 GB versions?

Are you kidding me Google????

So after being up all night ( playing black ops 2 ) and hitting the refresh button on my computer every 5 minutes i finally get the add to cart option...
I went through all the billing details etc and when i pressed confirm it said sorry there has been an error...
Now only the 8GB is available and the 16GB still says notify me again...
WTF????
Please use one of the hundred existing order threads
Both sold out now.
Shambles and disgrace.
I have an easier time getting tickets to major festivals.
Theres thousands of people accessing the page at the same time.
Google wallet is overloaded fyi
You do realise that this is a brand new device and people all over the WORLD want it. It's the same thing with iPhones. Get over it and wait for the next batch, I am and I'm happy about it
Complete joke.
Looks like i better get used to this old bag of crap phone for the future until google can be bothered to make than 5 phones

I'm surprised even Google didn't foresee this will happen LOL
Sold out in Australia, Germany, UK in minutes.
I bet US will sell out too.
I understand your situation guys, who wouldn't be frustrated after being up all night for this and at last encounter an error as it sold faster than even the hot cakes !

you are welcome. I just canceled one 8gb order

Well that didn't last long...Sold out 2 minutes later...
might be maybe people cancelling and phones are going back into the system.
I cancelled my 8 gig but it doesn't show up as cancelled on my end yet so I'm not sure if mine has gone back up for purchase.
Great freakin' call. Just secured one for myself! Thank you for the great heads up! :good:
another 8GB just appeared back in stock!
Scored an 8GB at 11:15 EST using the trick in the ARP thread, so confirmed, some units are/were available.
Honestly. If I wanted an 8 gig, of would have bought it this morning. They were in stock well after the 16's.
In just going to wait a little.

I goofed on that one - you're lucky. Some reason I was signed out.
Hot cakes, yum.
Please use one of the existing Play Store threads. Every time the device pops back in stock, we can't have a new thread. I've seen it twice now, the forums would be more cluttered than they already are.

They're saying three weeks to fulfill existing orders, so we don't know when they will open new ones.

Hopefully it will take less than f***ing 3 weeks, as I am wothout a phone at the moment.
This is really dissappointing with sucha a big company not to handle simple item booging/shipping process.

I can wait for 3 weeks...but if they come back and say it's going to be January before stock is really stable and not an F5 spamfest to try and get one, then I may have to go elsewhere. Hopefully they REALLY learned from this, and establish a much better system for the next batch...perhaps making an item in your cart be unavailable to be purchased by someone else for a certain amount of time, ala ticketmaster?
This has been discussed to the point of nauseam already.

Advice about getting a phone

Hi!
I'm currently waiting for my SGSII to come back from Samsung, it got bricked almost two months ago...
Now, I have the chance to recover it's price (290 eur) or wait until I get it back
If only nexus 4 were available somehow, I'd get the money and buy the 16Gb model ..... I need some opinion.... what would you people do?
Thanks!!

Honestly, I would hold out for the GS4.

If you can get your hands on it, buy nexus 4.
If size is not an issue, buy note 2.
If you don't mind waiting, buy s4
For the price, I was thinking about waiting around for nexus 4 8Gb version: I don't want to spend more money... but.... will I have to wait 2 more months? 3 perhaps? That's what's making me doubt: If I knew I would be able to buy it next week, I would wait.. but 2 months... it's something I would have to think about....

I got the S3. I don't know why everbody says it's not a big upgrade. It is IMHO a significant upgrade to the S2. Prices are much more affordable to the note2 and easier to get them the N4.

The price is too much.... I want a device with good specifications but what I mind most is that it should be fully open so the devs can release updates until the hardware gives up.... not until they find a difficulty like an undocumented chipset, having to stay weeks without sound, missing functions... etc etc....

While the nexus 4 is awesome and aosp is awesome, you will not find the custom ROMs to have much variation. On my sensation we had sense and aosp, but on the nexus we have aosp and we might get miui whenever that comes out with 4.2, but that's about it. If you love aosp, go with the nexus. Otherwise get your device with your bloat of choice.

Yes, we know... but there is a slight problem with the stock.... as you know....
If there were no problem with it, many more people would already have it...
The good thing is that people is starting to get a bit smarter:
-They are starting to reject the enslaving carrier contracts offering way overpriced phones in exchange of years of slavery with them
-The search for bloated-free phones.
But what google & LG are doing with the availability of the phone is really unbelievable....
Would suggest waiting for the S4, if you can. The reason is that with the Tegra 4 and Exynos 5 out, it wouldn't take time for the quad chips the current phones have to become a thing of the past. If you want the newest technology then wait. If not, buy a Nexus 4. It's the best money can buy.

I don't want to spend 600 euros on a device.... 300-400 is enough.... over that, I think is overpriced.... it's paying 200 more euro for 400 mhz more.... in the end.. I think it's not worth it.... unless you are a tech geek that needs to have the latest device.
I prefer something more modest but efficient..... A SGSII is fine nowadays: All the daily use apps work and it has the latest CM available....
If you want to play games with your device, it's another story... then, it's mandatory to look into which graphic chipset is built into the device and so......
People talk about nexus 4 as if it were so easy to get your hands on one.... here in spain it has been sold out like since always.... and, as I can read, there is little hope of getting one in the next weeks..... so, what am I supposed to do, hang on to my galaxy spica (it's my emergency/replacement phone) until the end of 2013? :crying:

Sold out + no carrier offers it in spain (plus, as I said, that would be a dumb move, a 300 euro device would finally cost you more than 1000)
Next week I will get my money back if i don't get my sgsII back......
Now, I have to look forward... this last week I have been reading news about stock of nexus 4 sometime next month (i hope this applies to spain too)..... I think I will go for the 8 Gb version....
I hope they don't run out of units too soon and we become a small group of nexus 4 users finally....

VZW Moto Maker order cancelled

Anyone else have their order cancelled this morning? I used the promo code THANKYOU10 so I wonder if that's why. Other than that idk why it could have gotten cancelled. The charge appeared fine on my card.

Fair enough... did you ever find out the reason for your cancellation? I was going to try that same code when I finally decide on a color scheme, but if that's the reason yours got nixed, I may just suck it up and pay the full price.
I used the code this morning. Order hasn't been canceled yet as far as I know. Did they email you to say it was canceled?

They emailed me that it was automatically cancelled. I got in contact with an online chat rep and she referred me to a number. I called the number and got tired of waiting so I hung up. So I never really found out why it was canceled. Could have been a system glitch butI'm going to take it as a sign that I should just save my money and wait at a later point to get a new device. Currently rocking a G2 so it won't hurt but I really wanted a Moto X.
My order was cancelled because the name on the credit card i entered didnt match the one i entered exactly... Missed the middle initial.
The charge also appeared on my statement, but never went through and disappeared about a week later. When i reordered, with the correction, it was fine.

That may very well be it. Didn't think that could be the issue since everywhere else I've used my card I've gotten away with not including the middle initial. Dang it!

I got the email around 7:30am and placed the order the night before. Now I'm deciding whether I should order it again or stick with the G2. Yesterday was basically an impulse buy since it was the first day for Moto Maker on VZW.
Could also be adding the accessories. Some people were able to get order to go through without accessories after not being able to complete order with them.
