To be fair, they are still new to selling hardware.
That's what I'm wondering.Wait, these shipping estimates are legit?
Well put it in the hands of people who know how to sell it e.g stores and Amazon
That's what I'm wondering.
Weren't a lot of people whose 4s shipped the past couple of days seeing 2-3 weeks estimates just a few days ago?
I guess I'll need to call. Anyone talked with Google's phone customer service? Are they helpful? (Probably not.)
EDIT: Based on info from XDA, it looks like it's not worth the bother of calling. I'm just being paranoid, so I'm not genuinely worried.
Google's customer support website is a nightmare.
I wanted to submit an email inquiry about possibly changing my address, since I'm still mildly paranoid about the situation I described earlier. You go through the prompts and it tells you the address cannot be changed once the shipping process has begun. Obviously, that's not even close to happening. So you go through a couple more and it tells you that to change your address, you must cancel your order and reorder the device. It won't even let you send an email request without confirming that you want to cancel your entire order. Obviously, there's no fucking way I'm canceling my order, but since they imply the address can be changed before the shipping process begins, that suggests that it can indeed be changed.

I had the Nexus 7 sent to the wrong address. The only thing they could do was wait for the order to ship, inform the parcel carrier that the unit was to be returned to sender, and wait 5 days after it was returned to get a refund.
Then I could order a second device.
If I were to order a Nexus 4 this day, how long do you guys think it would be before they shipped it out?
Assuming you're from the US, it has it listed on the Play Store I think. 7-8 weeks last time I checked for the 8GB version. 4-5 weeks for the 16GB version.
Edit: Those estimates could be conservative of course. Google told a lot of people 3 weeks the first time around and we got shipment in 2.
Got my Nexus 4
It's currently installing all my apps. I was quite surprised by the effect from the back of the case, it's nicer looking that I thought.
January 23? Right before the Mobile World Congress and CES? Yikes
Pfft
Google are amateurs at this. I'm not even going to go down the android route and I'm going back to iOS. The whole experience has soured my thoughts on Google and Android
Hope everyone in this thread gets their phones!
This is what happened to me Mecha.
As much as I sold my ip5 and was willing to give google and android a try, the whole launch put me off.
I sold the nexus4 and jumped back to ios and ip5. I won't be making the same mistake again soon.
Damn, and you actually got the phone!
I just can't wait around for rumours on forums and spamming refresh buttons on websites. That's not what you're meant to provide your future customers
Once bitten, once shy!
I don't get how you guys could jump back to iOS. I've had my iphone for 3 years and am beyond sick of it and its stale OS.

Because in reality all these phones do the same thing, they're app launchers.
My brother got in on the 2-3 week Nexus 4. Now to order him a microsim for T-Mobile.
Is it possible to check which time-frame your order made it into? I believe it was 1-2 weeks for me but I'd love to double check that.
Isn't that how Gmail works? O__oI wish Google now worked with exchange accounts.. Or if the gmail app would simply function like exchange did (instant pushed notifications when you get mail)

If you got a confirmation email, it should be there I would think.

Arrived a little bit ago. Did not realize that the g nexus sim card does not fit.
How do these sim cards work. If I get a new mini one, how would I use it again in the g nexus if I needed to? Adapter?
I need to go get one from tmobile tomorrow. I have e old school month to month plan, but I do not know what they will force me to get, plan wise.
Configuring via wifi. Clean looking phone.
Did anyone else get an update for the Nexus 4? Popped up when I got home.
use the email app?
Pretty sure Google now doesn't work outside of the gmail app.. Which is not instant like exchange is
I don't understand what you are saying. Are you using android or iOS? If Android, you add accounts natively. If iOS, you add accounts as exchange accounts.
My mistske.. 5 years on iOS. I'm on Android but I would swear the gmail app is slower than a natively added one. Am I wrong? I'd love to be. The native email app has push sync, but I don't see that option for the gmail one.
So everyone realizes they are complaining about what happened at zero-hour on the day of (second) release, right?
You can go to Play Store and put in an order with no problems right now it seems.
Are we really going to slam them for not being about to hold together the Play infrastructure as people sat there spamming their site, eventually making scripts to spam the site which more and more people used as the site slowed down even further??
Get a grip people! I don't see why most people could not have waited a day or two, and instead complain about not being able to get a phone the first second it is available.
