I think you just sign in to you Google account go to Google play and you're good?
Just sign in on the device it should email you saying "Here's 25 dollars of Google play store" or something like that

wiithepeng is correct, once you get the email saying that you got the credit then the play store will automatically use your credits when you go to purchase something. Pretty straight forward... I still have a little more to spend :highfive:
You guys are right' movies Re also in the library.

I don't understand why they are asking for my credit card when I already have one registered with my account... I mean how was I able to buy all the apps i before today?

I already have a card on file and it all registered after sign up. Didn't have to enter the store at all.

Well that's exactly what I did entered my gmail and password, but noting that confirms me that I receive the credit... Where do I have to look to see if I received them?

A screen popped up saying it was issued, like right after signing in. Then my gmail finished its sync and the email was there notifying me it was credited.
Brick and mortar store purchases still got the credit too.

Are you able to choose between credit card and the 25 dollar credit that's issued?

Hmm, yeah it was after I did the web sign in. Two step. It just popped right up. Figure it was because there was a card already present.

You should be good. Heard someone saying they canceled the one sign in and went through their own and it worked. Think it was AC.

I know I paid £100 more than I needed to but the google play site says shipping starts in 7 weeks, really didn't want to wait that long and it's still not bad compared to other phones on the market. Overall I'm a VERY happy Nexus Owner (nexus 7 32GB and Nexus 4 16GB)
I would have gladly paid extra as well, this thing is just brilliant. I'm glad I got it at the Play Store price, though enjoy your phone!

If you get a faultless phone, it is worth it. I paid 500 for a sgs3 and IMO the nexus is better. That said, I am willing to wait.
I done exactly the same thing. Sold my galaxy note 2 on eBay and bought the nexus outright

Same here, and got a free TV. Also seem to be a few bargains on o2 priority moments, like £25 off an Ocado shop, so saved some money there too.

It will continue to be their flagship phone until the October-December time frame when they usually release their newer models. Remember that Larry Page recently visited LG where they proposed their ideas just like last year, because that's how the nexus program works. I don't expect Google to release a new flagship phone until the end of the year especially since they just discussed a deal.
Yay, it'll still be the newest nexus for months to come

I dont care much about the lack of SD card slot, but at least give us a 32gb model :fingers-crossed:
apparently...
Does it even matter if the Nexus 4 isn't the "newest" Nexus? It's more than powerful enough to handle many more Android versions to come, so at least we'll be updated.

Well you might get the larger SD card but 16gb is plenty you don't like storing stuff in the cloud.

It's a bit tough for those of us with large-ish music collections. Particularly if we rip at 320kbps bit rate. I'm constantly bumping against the limit. And I don't even have games on my N4. I'd gladly welcome a 32gb or 64gb variant of the next one.
Actually, I hope they stick with the "all glass" format. I think it's sexy.
Wireless charging orbs will not be for just one phone!!!!!!!!
Just hope they get that wireless charging car dock out soon.

Right because there are more and more service providers capping the data usage.

Unfortunately, that's why I had to give up my N4. I live and work out in the boonies and unless I can store it on my device, most of the time I don't have access to it.
And, since Google did come out with a 32 GB N7 and dropped the 8 GB model after a while, I'm hoping they do the same with the N4. If they do, I'll be blowing my money on an another N4.

T-Mobile is truly unlimited! So cloud is an option, or another option is don't buy phones with locked memory.
I went from a 32GB SD in my doubleshot to an 8GB N4, I stream all my music from google with no need for any more memory to fill with useless junk.

I have 100gb of free cloud space, unofficial 4glte, and unlimited data. Why do I need a 64gb sd card? I thought only having 16gb was going to be a deal breaker I was way wrong.

Cloud is not always an option. To be honest it makes listening to music annoying at best. Mainly if you live in a place where your data bounces in and out. As for unlimited T-mobile they still throttle you at a point so still not a viable option. Also cloud storage is still not accepted in alot of business so having a good amount of internal storage is a good thing.
We will not see an SD card slot until the average person get smarter. So dont count on it anytime soon
Semantics said:
Reality is simple, cloud storage is where we are all being steered toward. If you can't embrace it, or afford one of the cheap unlimited data packages offered, do yourself and everyone else a favor and buy a 64gb ipod. It floors me that people still feel the need to have 30 gigs of music on their phone.

Why give up on convenience? it just requires a lot more work to delete and add the music you want to listen to today. Also, it's not only for music. People store games, applications, photos, videos etc on their phones too and 16/32 GB can be filled pretty fast with that stuff.
Sure, some things are "moving to the cloud", which doesn't mean that every new trend that's emerging somewhere is good. The "cloud" has way too many flaws to be considered an alternative to any kind of local storage.
First and foremost, there are a lot of privacy concerns.
Are you really going to confide all your private stuff to some company that is most likely based in another country where you have no or hardly any control about what really happens with all your data? Also, most companies are going to hand out information about you to governments without questioning it.
Furthermore, what happens if such company gets hacked? All your intimate stuff will be exposed to potentially malicious people.
Then, there can be loads of problems when you're trying to access your data.
What if your home internet goes down? Or you are in an area with no or only a slow connection? Maybe the host's website is inaccessible? Right, no access to your stuff.
The cloud is way to dependent on 3rd parties and other effects you have no control of. While everyone tries to increase their data's security and accessibility, the cloud is an enormous step backwards.
Last but not least, what if the cloud provider goes out of business or gets shut down by law enforcement like Megaupload did some time ago? Thousands of legitimate users lost all the stuff they entrusted to Megaupload and there is no way for them to get it back any time soon.
tl;dr: Don't blindly follow some obscure trend just because the media or anybody else tells you to.
I don't see a inconvenience, the cloud is a new technology, don't get stuck in the past. As for music and work I have no problems

I know the Galaxy gifts are there for us to download and use, but I don't understand how they get activated. So what's up with the $50 paypal vouchers we are supposed to get?
I don't fully get the voucher, is it for end users to get $50 to spend at merchants or do merchants get $50 towards processing fees in which case I have $0 incentive to use it.
What sort of Galaxy gifts are we supposed to get? I haven't seen anything...

Just received my VR. When using it for the first, it prompts you to go through a set instructions which illustrates how to use the controls which are easy to use. It then takes you through a VR demo of different 360 video clips.
I would give the video quality a 7 out of 10 as you can clearly see the pixels but after watching for a while you forget they are present. I did insert the included 16gb micro sd card in my phone before inserting it into the headset.
I only used it for a about 15 minutes after which the phone was warm but i also had a large file being downloaded over lte at the same time which was already using up a lot of cpu.
The VR cinema was realistic and the 3d trailers included made it feel as if i was watching the trailer in an imax theater.
After adjusting the straps to the correct size feels comfortable.
I still have some more testing to do but overall I'm happy with it.
Ps. My note 4 is from tmobile.
