Support NeoGAF

[Blackhead]

Any confirmation that the Nexus4 supports MHL HDMI out and mounting usb sticks?

 

[Blablurn]

Anyway for Europeans to order the phone?

not right now. seems to be sold out everywhere.

 

[Vyse The Legend]

It's not in AOSP yet, the device has only just been released - it'll get added eventually. The google employee who posted the info about the 4.2 AOSP said "he can't comment" on the nexus 4 being added to AOSP which people interpreted as "OMG IT'S NEVER COMING". No idea why. It's a nexus device, it's the whole point of the nexus program.

Google just sucks at communication. I saw blogs blaming Qualcomm. But, the Nexus One was AOSP'd, so I don't see why this wouldn't either.

Hi

If anyone has a spare 16gb they ordered, please let me know!!

I'm in the UK

Shipping estimate: November 15, 2012

That means it's going to arrive on the 15th, right?

I'd take one look at how Google's handled everything here today and just say, no it's probably just going to ship by the 15th and who knows when you'll get it.

 

[giga]

Ordered the 8 before the 16. Guessing "complete" comes before a shipping estimate.

 

[sca2511]

Sells out while I'm in school. Ugh.

 

[freshair]

Does anyone know if the bumpers are popping in and out of stock?

Also I'm getting red 'SOLD OUT' availabilities on the 8 and 16 now

 

[Chairhome]

I just went to the site and was able to get a 16GB right away. keep trying I guess.

 

[GatorBait]

Yes...Yes!...YES!!!

After sitting here and refreshing for the past twenty minutes or so, I got myself a 16GB! What a freaking mess of a launch, but so glad that all the effort I put in to get this damn phone worked out.

 

[sca2511]

yep getting red SOLD OUT text consistently now too. A few minutes ago, it was coming and going and I actually got an "ADD TO CART" for the 8gb, but I wanted the 16gb then lo and behold the red text.

NA or EU?

Dope. Mine still says pending. Let's gooooooooooo complete status.

 

[GatorBait]

NA.

Item showing in my wallet too now.

 

[Divvy]

I wonder if Canada has a different stock allocation since I have yet to see the 16 gig one go back up aside from the time I got mine.

 

[Dolla Dolla]

Been able to get Add to Cart to show up for 8GB a couple times.

NA here.

 

[SSGMUN10000]

I was able to order an 8 and a 16. Don't know which one to keep.

 

[superfamicom]

I'm having a feeling that this thing will be continually sold out for a while.
By the time I will finally be able to get my hands on one they will have released a 32GB version, which is what I really want anyway.

 

[Drpunch]

Looks like the 16GB is finally "sold out" in Canada. The 8 GB still has coming soon, but I'll happily wait for a 16GB version if it's only a matter of weeks.

 

[Chairhome]

NA or EU?

NA. I just tried it and it was available on my first try (since coming home). Was able to check out, my CC company called to verify that I made the transaction. I have a receipt and everything. I'm happy :-D

 

[suedester]

The fact that the US store is saying sold out but the UK store still says coming soon gives me a glimmer of hope that more may come on sale over the next few days. I still don't understand how a company of Google's size can be so shit at this though.

 

[hitsugi]

Yeah.. At this point I would say count on it shipping by the 15th, then add whatever the shipping time says.

Throttling is real. Anandtech tested both in the freezer and in room temp. Qualcomm'd.

For those wondering why the LG Optimus G wasn't affected in spite of it having the same platform, the reason is because the results from the Optimus G were run in parts due to some instability affecting its ability to run a complete set of tests without crashing. The Nexus 4 has newer drivers that don't crash during a full GLBenchmark 2.5 run but as a result run the device long enough for thermal throttling to kick in.

 

[criesofthepast]

Has anyone tried to configure that XML file to turn off the throttling and see how the phone reacts? Would it explode into flames?

 

[eissan]

just setup auto refresh and page update notification in chrome...I wonder if I stand a chance to get a 16gb today

They both still say "Coming Soon" for me :/

same...

indeed. i did this earlier:

 

[Milchjon]

So my dad called me, he actually ordered mine for me. He said he had like 5-6 guys on his team in the office all refreshing the page separately and whoever got one first put the order in. He also said he's thrilled it sold out and it's probably sold more than the iPhone 5.

Your dad was the guy with the Apple stock overvaluation, right? I love him, more of these stories, please :-D

Yeah, it still seems to perform at roughly 50% of what the iPhone 5 is putting out. It's a shame to have such a powerful processor that.. technically isn't usable at it's own specs.

 

[EightBitNate]

Is the throttling at a software level or hardware level?

 

[thuway]

Has anyone gotten in the last half hour? I keep trying.

 

[rabhw]

I think I'm giving up on getting a 16gb in Canada for the time being.

FUCK YOU GOOGLE for cancelling my order. Fucking imbeciles.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Software it appears. There is an XML file to edit, but who knows the long term risks of that.

 

[Cyrillus]

Ordered the 8 before the 16. Guessing "complete" comes before a shipping estimate.

My order also says "Shipping Estimate November 15, 2012" if I look in the Play Store. However, Wallet just shows "Pending" and doesn't mention anything about shipping dates.

 

[wario]

so why doesn't the optimus g have the same thermal throttling? if they both have the same processor, wouldn't that phone get just as hot as the nexus 4?

 

[freshair]

So apparently there's already a report of a yellow-ish tint on the screen after it warms up a bit.

Did anyone have this issue with their iPhone and had it go away after the glue settled?

not if the Optimus G got the top shelf SoCs and the Nexus 4 got stuff that was binned for worse performance

They throttle at different levels..

Read the quote in my post.

 

[Beer Monkey]

So when I get my phone, and am porting my permanent number from Sprint to the $30 Tmo no-contract plan, can I do that online? Do I set up the transfer at Tmo when I activate, then call Sprint the next day?

[-Pyromaniac-]

Anyone in Canada have something other than Pending for their order?

 

[rabhw]

Still pending in Wallet here. Play store has shipping estimate of 15th - whatever that means.

I wonder when Canada will get a decent amount of stock so it's not a fight to buy one of these things...my birthday is on the 24th ;__;

stupid thing keeps jumping from notify me to Sold out, triggering my page monitor nonstop.

Does that mean it will ship out that date or I will receive it by then? Never ordered through play...do they send you a shipping notification?

 

[hitsugi]

We're mostly speculating that it will be the date the phone is shipped by.. but I guess we'll see tomorrow. If it doesn't ship then, it's more or less impossible it would arrive the same day it ships (the 15th)
