Will he take them away from you later and give you an Apple charger?
DHL tracking tells me that its already in Germany. Crazy!
edit: Oh... Google sends from Germany. :lol

will totally Facebook friend you! *giggle* *LOL*
Is there no way to check on your order until you get a shipping e-mail? The order page itself seems pretty static, is there any way of knowing if mine will arrive earlier than expected?

back in stock @ T-Mobile but they bumped the contract price
.... So, it's not even a subsidy anymore.. $50 charge for being able to get it immediately, I guess.
Yeah it seems to be affecting everyone. Weird. I hope that thing doesn't blow up in my face when I'm using it *knocks on wood*.
I'm still waiting on my damn case from China. I ordered it back on the 16th and it's still not here. Should've just ordered a more expensive one from the US or something...
No buzzing here squire. Either that or I'm deaf.

T-Mobile has already confirmed it is a typo. It's still $199 on contract.
Same here, and I've had it for weeks now.

they confirmed its a typo but didnt fix the typo?
It takes Apple about two weeks to update a court ordered message on their homepage. T-mobile is no Apple.

It is already fixed when you try to check out. It says $199. They said the website would be updated soon.

I asked my dad about this he said there's no buzzing noise on his phone at all. *shrugs*
Not really a buzz. It's more of "the speaker is still on" sound.
And once you turn on the screen and try it again, you'll hear something.

This is the one thing I hate about the holiday season. Too much mail!
My phone is dead silent. Had it next to my ear for a full power down and back on cycle and all I heard was the vibrate notification.
**shrug** I guess it's not as widespread as was reported.
Nope and it's killing me slowly.

Do you have a charge or an authorization? If it is an authorization, it should fall off in a few days. Maybe longer depending on the bank/CC company.
If an actual charge, then yeah. Raise hell.
It's a charge...there lack of communcation is the worst part of this whole thing
Yup, an actual charge went through on my card on Friday. I have an automatically generated ups tracking number/email but it hasn't changed status in 6 days.
So I finally got a call and after hearing the yea its a known issue let me send this to our shipping support team ..... so I asked the guy at that point so what really happened...he kinda paused and said they would take care of us....yea thats a statement Im sure wont come true but oh well......if I dont get an answer by friday i`m canceling the whole damn thing and i`ll write to Larry telling him if they need help running their retail channel I got enough experience to make sure this never happens again

I just ordered the 16GB one. I think 8GB probably would have been plenty, but the time has come for me to enter the smartphone age. Let's do this!
Speaking of bumpers, how hard is it to make those? :lol
I'm shocked that they're still unavailable.
Totally agree man. It is pretty disappointing google can't seem to supply enough of anything.
Sorry if this has been previously asked but I couldn't find it in the thread: my phone is meant to arrive tomorrow. I currently have an iPhone 4 with At&t as part of a family plan, and I'm assuming my data plan is the iPhone one. When the nexus arrives tomorrow, if I switch the SIM in will it work straight away? Or am I going to have to go to AT&T and inform them of my intention to switch and get them to do what they gotta do for me?
Just wondering because I hope I can just get straight to using it rather than having to drive out and have them set me up and make changes to my account. Cheers

Uhh, unless AT&T is weird, it should work just fine. With pretty much all GSM phones, you just pop the SIM card in while the phone is off, turn it on, let it search for the network and you should be golden. If not, see if the APN is there.

Came in here to find out if I was alone in this. The tracking number for my phone that supposedly shipped on the 30th is still on the "A UPS shipping label has been created" stage, whereas a second order that shipped this morning is set to arrive tomorrow.
At the very least it would be nice if they refunded us the ridiculous $15 S&H fee, since we're obviously not paying for 2-day shipping.

No it will not work right out of the box. The data plan will be flagged as an iPhone one and for reasons that continue to piss me off, the Android device will not provision properly on its own. You will have cellular signal, but you won't have data. Tried this with several GS3s and a couple of Samsung tablet devices on AT&Ts network.

You just have to change the data plan to a standard data plan. ATT uses a different plan for their iPhones.
When did you order?
I got my first order in on the 27th at around 12:40 PM Pacific, with a 1-2 week estimate.
Seems like a good amount of people on XDA are also seeing their tracking numbers working.

Better build quality (doesnt feel cheap), stock android will always beat touchwiz. Those two things alone make me like it more, as I am not the person that likes to root or mess around with Roms at all. The screen seems a bit dark compared to the GS3, but that doesnt bother me that much. The only negative thing against the Nexus 4 is the speaker is a bit quiet on the phone. Other then that I really do like it.
That's good new for me, since I ordered my phone Dec 3rd with a 3-4 week estimate... but I go on vacation on Christmas Day.

I ordered on 28th, with same 4-5 weeks for 16gb. here's hoping the same for me this week!

It really only takes a few weeks from the overwhelming initial crush of orders to the first batch of ramped-up production phones arriving by container ship to the shores of North America and Europe. Google and LG were probably a bit too quiet during the intervening period about what was going on, but nobody was trying to create an artificial shortage. There should be plenty of N4s around the world by Christmas.

Same here. In fact it says the phone is already near me arrived in Oak Creek Wisconsin at 5am just after being shipped at 4:48 in Kentucky.
Was surprised to see that my 4-5 weeks estimate ended up amounting to little more than 2 days in the UK. I guess they are being ultra conservative with the numbers to avoid upset. Pretty cool anyway, and the phone is awesome... I don't know why it's downloading everything installed on my nexus 7 though.

When did you order it?

Google is pretty random with their ship times. I ordered 2 on my account and 2 on my wife's account. When I ordered on my account got 2-3 weeks shipping yet received an email saying they have shipped. On my wife's account it was a 1-2 weeks before shipping yet nothing since then. So seems like they still do not know what they are doing.
