[Q] Australia Launch Time: - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I currently live in Australia and am wondering what time the Nexus 4 will launch here?, will it launch at the same time as America or is it a midnight launch here?
Sorry if there are other posts like this, I did search and couldn't find any.
Thanks,
Techno_Guy21

It's not very likely that the phone will role out everywhere at their local midnight. More likely to roll out at midnight PST, or after 9 am PST when google employees show up.

Ok, thanks, ill probably just stay up until midnight, thanks for the help

Many peope are saying it will be 00:00 am PST for eveyone. I like the soucd of this as it will be 7 PM here for me in Melbourne, that would be good timing for me. I doubt itll be 9 am PST because if it is 9 AM PST for everyone, that means it will be 4 AM 14th Novemeber for us in AUstralia, but the site for us shows, 'available nov 13' not nov 14.

12:03am in South Australia - 13th November 2012, no respect for the aussies! :silly:. Finger banged the hell out of the F5, no joy. See you all at 00:00 PST !

Well, at least you guys won't be staying up or getting up at 3am to check if it's open for order...

Just ordered today. Overnight shipping?

I'm pumped as **** to get this sucker in my hands. Can I actually expect it to be shipped overnight and on my doorstep tomorrow? What have been your experiences with wait time between order and receipt?

What time did you place the order?
I think the cut off time for EST where I live is 5pm.
I ordered mine on a Friday at like 3am in the morning, got it Monday, so it was technically overnight since they do not ship on weekends.

Depends on when you ordered, there is a thread about 30 pages long a search should bring up. And yes, it really is over night as long as you ordered in time for them to process it before the daily pick up.
What time did you order it?
Also, you will get an email update, and can check the status in your google checkout, it gets updated very quickly and accurately.

Yes you should have it tomorrow.
Tomorrow would be PERFECT. My wife just had surgery, so I'll be home all day watching over her, with plenty of time to root and get acquainted with my Nexus. If it comes Wednesday, instead, I'm screwed, as I will be back at work and in meetings from 8am-5pm.

Woohoooo! I just looked at the status page on Google Checkout, but it still says "Not Yet Shipped." Should I be concerned, or is it just that it hasn't been updated properly yet to reflect the true status of the order?
Hard to say... I would think it would have been updatede by now. IIRC, not only does the order have to be placed, but the payment has to clear as well. As well, I think the actual cut off is 12 noon for a "guarantee" since FedEx typically does large pick ups like that around 3ish... they make all deliveries by 3PM, then start on their pick ups.

Yeah, just check in the morning to make sure, but I am thinking you missed the window if it hasn't updated yet. Mine updated 30 minutes after FedEx did the initial scan.
I ordere mine at 3:00pm eastern. By 8:30 am it was delivered the next day.

You guys are lucky. After it was first released we all had to pay for overnight shipping when it took 3 or 4 days. Those were some of the most painful days...
I ordered mine today, but chose ground shipment, does anybody know how many days does this take? (why ground - there is no hurry , do not want N1 there tommorow)
I ordered from from Europe and shipped to california. (the tax was 51 $ - that's a lot) And a friend will bring it to me.
I hope it will arrive in less than a week!
by the way:
I sold G1 and now I went back to Windows mobile 6.1 on my old HTC p3300. Now I see that ANDROID is superior in any way. This Wmo SUCKS! Wha ta peace of SH*T!
Can not even thing I will ever go to another different OS.
Ordered mine at about 9pm cst on a Monday and it arrived the next day about 10am. I tracked it all night lol.

[Q] What is your ship date?

What is your ADAM ship date.
9 January.

9th Jan here too.
This one is a bit of a sore point for me...
when I ordered, it said around 9 Jan. When they confirmed, it then said 15 Jan. When I check the order on the notion ink website now, it says simply "February"
grrr
For me it's says first on pre-order 6 to 8 weeks
and after on status page it shows me 15-22 jan what means 4 to 6 weeks
and now February what correspond to 6 to 8 weeks
But it's loooooong to wait
When I ordered, it showed 9th Jan. For few days in the preorder status page it showed 9th Jan. Then the pre-order status page changed to - 15th to 22nd Jan :-(
Seeing that for some of you the ship date changed from 9th Jan to February, I am considering myself lucky!!
I hope to get my hands on one of these.

Mine was also originally Jan 9 and changed to Jan 15-Jan 22.
Mine said 6th, then after a few days said 15-22nd. It has stayed there, so I'm glad. It was mentioned that they hoped to get out all orders sooner if possible.
Jan 15-22. Can't come fast enough!
Still the 9th and i havnt got any email 0_o
Jan 15-22, hopefully the first shipment delays won't effect us who are slated for the second shipment. As long as I get one eventually I could care less if there is a delay...

Eventually doesn't cut it for me. I understand it's a pre-order, so I can deal with a bit of a delay, but the closer it gets to the Xoom release date the more I'm going to start questioning my order.
Better yet, I'll start thinking about putting it on eBay! It looks like a few people are making a pretty good margin on re-selling their preorders.
How are you going to adjust the angle on the Xoom
camera for a video chat sitting at your desk or in a chair? You are going to have to adjust the angle of the stand it is on. That could be a challenge. Adam owners will reach over and adjust with one finger.
Andy from NIH 15th-22nd and my order doesn't sound like it will be delayed. I got an email from Jon @ norton ink. I think all pre orders will go out together.

When are you planning on ordering?

Let me start by saying that I apologize if a similar thread has already been made. I've done some searching and can't find anything, and didn't feel like reading through 70+ pages in the shipping thread.
I was part of the group that pre-ordered the nexus 7. Based on my experience with that (both the issues with the original batch of nexus 7's and the shipping issues), I was thinking about giving it a bit of time before ordering a nexus 4. Some opinions would be nice though. When's everyone planning on ordering?
13th November
13th !

ASAP!
i'll probably purchase 1-2 weeks after launch.
would like some questions answered and accessories developed.
Payday, which was 4 days ago... but they're making me wait till the 13th.
when the "purchase" button turns on after mashing the f5 key over and over and over

Setting the two-finger tap on my mouse pad to refresh the page, that way my impatient twitching will serve a purpose.
I must have my nexus machine ASAP
It would be nice if they actually told us what time it will be available on Tuesday
I was planning on 13th but now I'm thinking of letting it settle for a week or two.
I have a nagging feeling a 32GB version is going to come out early next year but I'll sell this and upgrade to that. I bought a 16GB N7 in July and sold it a few weeks ago and only lost out a little bit. I'll be picking up a 3G 32GB N7 soon too
On 13th of course,
But people are panicking about what time, thinking its gonna sell out.
It wont!
And if its like the Nexus 7, orders from the 1st week at least will all be included in the first wave of dispatches.

12AM EST assuming it's live if not then 3AM EST which is 12AM PST.
Can't wait to get it
ASAP!
Probably asked before, but has anyone called Google's customer support and asked what time it'll be up for purchase?

[Q] So, when?

So is Google going to start selling the N10 at 1 minute past midnight UK tonight? or 1 minute past midnight US time?
I would like to know this as I want a lovely new package at my door on Wednesday.
No one knows, but if you ask me then I don't see how they could release it at the same time in all regions. If they release it at the same time then there is no chance it will be shipped the same day in some countries. Isn't it 13 Nov already in Australia?

Yes I suspect so, but dont they still use rocks and an abacus there?
My guess is it will be midnight plus one in googles California time zone.
It seems it will be tomorrow afternoon for europe. At least that's what some German Google worker posted on Google+.
Update: now he says 9am in Germany, that should be 00:00 PST.

sold out in less than 20 Minutes

well, every half hour here in Australia I was refreshing the nex4 16gb store page, every half hour didnt really seem to be enough, because the 16gb version was sold out here in less than 20 minutes. what its going to be like for the rest of you guys, im not sure.
also for anyone that was relying on the email going out to notify you that its availabe, dont, I never got one!
just some info there for you guys.
Frustrated that i dont have a Nexus 4 though
Hmm. Maybe I should buy two and flip. Lol.

This isn't Runescape. LOLL im joking. (don't ask I used to play it)
Maybe someone made them available too early and they are not really sold out and everyone is running around with their heads cut off.
Lets see what happens in 3 hours..

Like Tescos. Damn it.
time?
what time did it go on sale in Australia? 12am or 8am?
Around 12.15 pm Sydney time. That'll be +11 GMT. Strange time if you ask me.
so i guess the sale starts around 12pm local time everywhere. would be better if people from other parts of the world can confirm the sale time.
Yeah someone please confirm the time !
Nov 13 isn't coming soon enough!
Was lucky enough to pick up a 16GB Nexus 4
Checked my phone at 12.03pm Adelaide Time or 12.33pm Sydney time and saw the "Add to Cart"
Now just gotta wait for it to get shipped. ^^
I am in Melbourne Australia, I doubt the nexus 4 sold out. Here is what I think happened:
Someoen made them available too early for us AUstralians by mistake and went 'woops' later and put it back to coming soon.
This could well be true because:
1. 12:15 PM for available release time is weird
2. Not a lot of Australians know about the nexus 4 as most Australians are iSheeps and they wouldn't know about this availability on november 13th unless they were reading android news.
3. And with not that much people knowing about it, and just in general tit would be impossible for them to run out of stock in less than half an hour, even the iphones which is marketed profesionally isnt even able to do that (get sold out in less than 30 mins)
4. Many people have called google and they have said that there will be no seperate times, 12 AM PST
5. 1 more hour and 15 minutes until 12 AM PST guys lets keep our hopes up

But the 8GB version was available for a longer period of time. If what you assume is true, they would have fixed all accidents at once...

Then how did Sparky_boi order one genius, you were too slow, I gotta wait until next month to ship it from States via a relative and wanna make sure it comes with a case and screen protector so its gonna be a LOOONG wait
I tried to order N4 and N10 and added them to my cart and tried to checkout but google just gave me an error and deleted my cart.
After repeating the precedure 5 times the devices eventually got sold out.
Any word ontwhen the next batch will be released, or even guesses?
Theyre already on ebay for 450+ for the 8gb version.. ewwww
Haha, one of the local kijiji ads have one for 1000 bucks :S
Went on sale at 11:40 exact on EST here in New York. Snagged one just in time, and my order went through and I got a confirmation email so now I am awaiting for it to be shipped!
