Some advice needed related nexus 4 - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am planning on buying a new nexus 4 and selling my galaxy nexus which I bought about a month ago.
Is it a good move? I don't mind storage, I am a cloud guy that's y I like Google. They promote cloud a lot
One more thing. If I buy a nexus from US will it work here in India? I'm talking about the radio part of it. (will buy off contract of course)
Thanks in advance :thumbup:

It is a worthy upgrade from the Galaxy Nexus, and since storage isn't an issue for you... even better! And yes, the Nexus 4 is a world phone, which means that any carrier supporting GSM (sim cards) will work with this phone, no matter what location. As long as you pop your SIM card into this thing, it should work well. The Nexus 4 they sell in the US is the same version India will get when the play store is available in your country.

No mahn. Play store mobile buying dont happen in India so people here are expecting high prices plus its coming early December.. so i will probably get a friend to buy it for me from US. Anyways thanks

Good trade yes or no?

a guy is offering me a galaxy nexus GSM plus a Nexus 7 8GB a microsim adapter and 40 dollars for my Tmobile galaxy s3 32GB . What are your thoughts on this should i do it? I dont have a tablet and i like the stock google but the new galaxy nexus is coming out soon. What do you guys think? Can i resell for more i bought the s3 for 470
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I doubt you will be able to resell those and get your $470. I would hold onto the s3, and just buy a new nexus, or a n7 if u want one. The s3 32gb is too sweet.

Oh ok i thought myself it wasnt that bad of a trade but if i cant resell i wont bother
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
New Gsm nexus is 350$ from google and a new 8gb N7 is 200$ do the math if you looking to resell you probably wont get your money's worth. I wouldnt do the trade and just wait on the next nexus and sell your GS3 then.
I wouldn't trade nexus phone even the new one won't be as nice as the s3. The s3 spec are way better IMHO
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yeah but hes offering the galaxy nexus and the nexus 7 not just the galaxy nexus ans hes adding 40bucks
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
go for it, 2 > 1 , u will end up using the phone less anyway so the slight downgrade in specs wont matter much. just know u will have less storage space. and a galaxy nexus sells for about 250 a n7 200 that 450 + 40 u will come out ahead
Lol so the other guy backed of someone just offered me a nexus 7 16gb and a gsm nexus. Definetly taking that deal plus hes adding 40 too

So the GS3 specs are better than a completely unknown, unannounced device? There's logic for you.

Nexus 4 price change

This sucks bigtime! I fear It will be the same in more countries.....
the play store price remain the same, for international just have to wait for a site like expansys to give a good price.

Same for me (in Austria). But at least many Austrians have the chance to get it from Germany's Play Store through friends/relatives in Germany. But thing is, the recommended retail price of € 549.- for the Nexus 4 16 GB won't correspondend to the actual selling prices. The first retailer is already announcing it for € 399.- (http://geizhals.at/eu/859912), others will follow. The only reason for this crazy pricing is probably LG's try to protect their Optimus G (which is very similar to the Nexus 4) of being unsellable...
...
why google don't open the Google Play Device store to more countries ..
what is the reason for google to select or not to select a country ? resistance from local retail or mobile operators ?
such a big price diff is ridiculous ..btw..
Yeah, I'm always getting "this product is not available in your country", Portugal here, and I just don't see the reason why they do it like that. Whats the difference betwen the countrys that justifies this regon lock in apps, devices, etc.?
Sent from my Nexus S using xda app-developers app
There may not be a technical reason for limiting the Play Store to certain countries.
Allowing sales in a country opens up all kinds of legal liability. You have to be able to collect and submit applicable taxes, adhere to fair trade laws, deal with customs and tariffs, etc.

Me too
In Ireland, so close to uk where ou can get from play store, is there any way that I can access the uk play store so I can order it and send it to a friends address?
im buying this no matter what price tag it come with!!
I wonder....can you buy it from google play through a proxy and have it shipped to your country w/o enlisting the help of other people?

From what I've read, you have to use credit card from the same country as your home adress country, so, it will not be possible...

Nexus 4 for Malaysia or Singapore

As like the title, I do really hope that Google Nexus 4 will be available direct from Google. Anyone have any news on this?
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda app-developers app
I'm looking forward to it too... Hopefully almost the same time as US.
I bought Nexus 7 directly from US but I think Nexus 4 is better to be bought in Malaysia as it is more essential and a must have with you all the time .
Unlike Nexus 7, if anything goes wrong with it then it we can still live with it but Nexus 4 is a phone that you will need a replacement if anything goes wrong with it.
I've some rumors that it will start selling at end of Nov but still no confirmation.
How I wish that will be true. However if we want to buy from US, we either get from grey market, if not get some one from US to buy and forward to you. I hate they have no deal policy for non US credit card...

Hi, as you may notice I'm from Brazil and I have a problem,I want nexus 4 so bad and there are some issues importing them to here such as lost of package (Brazil steal), breaking of device, etc
So I was thinking if anyone can help me and contract me, here's my deal: my friend will be in Orlando around 25th February and I of someone could buy it for me and exchange for the money, of course I can afford 400USD for the 16gb version that's sold for 349 so you win almost 100 bucks for doing almost nothing, what can you say guys?
Edit: it can be used if it hasn't any sign of use like my previous nexus device

Also the Nexus 16GB is 349 + 13.99 shipping + tax which usually equals about 380-390 depending on where you live. So $10-20 is all said person would get. Including trip costs and time to deliver would basically negate all that.
Not to say I wouldn't do it for you for free as I don't care about the extra money, I am however not in Florida. As others have said, Jan 25th already passed unless you meant Feb 25th .
Re: nexus 4 in Orlando(50U$ reward)
The 16 gb on ebay is going for around 415-420 with no accessories.
I live in Orlando and I am debating on selling my n4 that I just got yesterday.
Still waiting for all my accessories to be shipped (spigen ultra crystal screen protector =$13, dbrand black carbon skin = $14 and re earth hybrid fusion case = $16)

This reminds me of the replies I get from selling things on craigslist.
"Hi, my name is Michael and my business associate will be in your town and I would like to have them come by and pick up the item. They can pay with a certified cashiers check to assure you that this is not a fraud"

trading my htc one for nexus 4?

so i originally had the iphone 5 but i traded that for an htc one and i must admit am a phone junkie always wanting to switch things up and now i got an offer for my htc one plus 40 dollars. only thing im sad about is downgrading from 32 gigs to 16 but for some reason i really want to try the nexus 4. would you guys reccomend this? yes or no. i dont think you can go wrong with either phone honestly
You're getting ripped off in my books. HTC one is twice the phone mate.

well the thing is nobody on craigslist is selling one. should i ask for more money? if i honestly deserve more money than $40 plus the trade im sure hed understand and if not i can just keep my htc one. i just kind of like the hardware setup of the htc one as far no hardware keys etc
Is the HTC unlocked? Sell it on eBay and buy the nexus. But honestly, it's not worth it the nexus is somewhat of a downgrade. My bro has a one and the screen and speakers alone are a lot better. Plus, 16gb does suck I have 10 GB of music and I don't like to stream because T-Mobile doesn't have the best signal when I'm driving around town. And if you don't like sense put cm on the phone. The developer edition comes out soon so vanilla Roms should be bug free and updates will be on par with Nexus 4

htc is not unlocked i could sell on craigslist though how much money extra would i be getting if i sold my htc one and bought a nexus 4 from ebay. i would honestly rather just keep my htc one than go through that hassle how much money would be good for a fair trade and how can i explain to him such as we already agreed on 40 but plan on meeting up tomorrow

Sell the one on eBay or clist or swappa. Then buy the nexus off of eBay or the playstore. I think a new nexus is about 350 or so. A HTC one used is about 450 to 500 I'm guessing. The point is that a bad deal on your side. The nexus has been out for about a year and the one for about a month. The nexus can be boght brand new at a cheaper rate then the one.

Oh see I don't know how much you can really sell for since its locked to a certain carrier. My brother got a really good deal when upgrading contract it essentially cost him $50 (paid $150 with a $100 mail in rebate) if I were you I would just keep the HTC. Is there something it lacks for you

Its not in stone. I've backed out of deals just say you did some research and the price difference is not worth the trade. You aren't obligated even if you make a verbal agreement to meet.

honestly i just wanted to try something different and the nexus looks pretty bad ass to me i just like the over all design. i am not all up to date on specs and features so im not going in very educated to this trade thats why i came here i like the htc and all but i really have always sort of had a thing for nexus phones. so just keep the htc is the vibe im getting? what phone WOULD be worth trading the htc one for? im always looking for something new...smh
Nexus 4 has a bad photo camera.
No full LTE support.
No extSD.
but has much better software cos it's vainilla/aosp Android with Google binaries that are supported on AOSP without issues.
The Nexus 4 hardware would be a downgrade. How about you flash your H1 to aosp instead? Then you would have the same software as the nexus.

Currently no phone is better in my opinion. This and the gs4 are essentially equal in hardware it depends on preference of amoled over LCD. However, I do think the features touchwiz offers like the hover gestures and stuff are better than things sense has

so say i really really just wanted to trade for some reason, and did the trade plus get $50. i know i have the better phone but atleast im not getting ripped off as bad? or is this still pretty bad?

Sheeit if it wasn't him offering it would have been me.
OP, if you are in such a hurry to try the Nexus 4 that you're willing to allow yourself to be ripped off by a local buyer offering you only $50, you are carazy.
$100 is more like it.

Does it really? My brother hasn't complained but I think he's gonna flash cm soon anyways. I had a s3 for about a month and it never lagged and that was just a dual core but I suppose there's a big difference between sense and touch wiz
