anyone know when they should have more? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried looking around the internet but haven't found anything except people crying that the site was messing up and it sold out too fast.
. One site said 3 week but I don't believe them because their whole story was about how we should just buy the tmobile version.
.
So I know I'm not the only one trying to find out when they will have more, has anyone found any info? Even rumors?

Didn't T-Mo just announce their sales of the Nexus 4 are delayed indefinitely?

Just some random site I never heard of and found doing a google search, here is a link
http://liliputing.com/2012/11/googl...-on-nov-14th-for-199-on-contract-499-off.html

" Liliputing - 1 hour ago Didn't get a chance to purchase a Google Nexus 4 from the Google Play Store today? ... you have two choices: Wait a few weeks for Google to get more in stock or pay a ..."

I just called Google Play support and the guy said that they have "no information" right now. He told me to enter my email in the NOTIFY ME place on the Play store, which I had done a long time ago....
Basically, I would say a few weeks.

I hope they can fill orders before the end of the month so I can drop sprint before my next billing cycle starts. Looks like T-mobile wants $500 for one off contract so thats another option.

Tmobile $500 Hell no.. Helll nooo If google wants $350 unlocked why in hell tmobile wants $500.!!!

Because they wants some dollars to eats some cookie

I'm not really sure what this is worth but I called Google Play customer service earlier today ~10:30am PST and was told that they were sold out. The rep said they expect more in 3-4 days and to "keep checking the website" and enter my email to be notified (yeah, right).
So given the reports of people being able to still order some N4s well into the evening, I don't know how informed that rep was. It sounded like it was just their own personal, optimistic guess. Hopefully, it's not "weeks" like was stated on Google+ earlier.

A Google employee said 3 days, maybe 2 now?

Lol I went to a tmobile store today that was close to walmart. They didnt even know that they were gonna sale the N4 dont have them in stock or a demo to play around with. And tmobile wants me to give them $200 + tax down and $15 a month for 20 months. adds up to $499 + tax. Way more expensive than the Play Store which with taxes and shipping and the Bumper case cost to $420 And did I mentioned that the one from the Play Store is unlocked. And the one for tmobile is locked

Google is eating like $200 - $300 per phone... The MSRP for this phone should be $500 - $600 for the 16GB just like the GS3, Note etc.
T-Mobile can't eat the difference the way Google or Amazon can.

I think you are wrong! An non removable battery and no sd card slot those two have to lower the price of the phone. The phones gets more expensive depending how many adds you ad on it. 1.3MP front camera thats another cheaper add. 16GB is another cheaper add. no LTE is cheaper
If this phone have those features. Removable battery, sd card slot, 32GB, 2.0MP front camera, LTE. ETC then it should be $500 - $600 But it doesnt. The only feature google put it there that should cost money is the quad-core. Thats why google is not selling the phone expensive because its not worth it. And T-Mobile by selling this phone that high their wrong. They are comparing the price to others phone that have those features,

I'm just guessing but if people are getting "on back order" emails stating that they should be shipping in 3 weeks, that's probably when the next batch will be available. I hope that's all but who knows...

well the first best buy I went was sold out so I just went to another and said F**K it and money is not an issue.
You do realize that the group of numbers right below the Val number is the transaction number? Which means any best buy employee can go print a duplicate receipt and claim it as their own? Just an FYI.
By the way, I totally pre-ordered my EVO. Can't wait for it!
I canceled my Best Buy preorder after learning they were charging $600 for the contract-free version, so I'm waiting to order one at my local Sprint store when they start taking names.

Where did you learn that, if you don't mind me asking??
EDIT: OK, I found the thread on Android Forums where some guy claims he had supposed phone conversations with 3 different BB employees at 3 different BB stores and that they all said $600. I'm sorry, I just don't believe it! Even if it is true (which I doubt) I can easily cash in my $50 BB gift card and walk 100 yards to the Sprint store to buy it for $450.
Are you sure that guy doesn't work for Sprint or Radio Shack?

How much should you pay for the pre-order?
199? or full price?
OK, I take it back. I was just made aware of the fact that Best Buy is charging $599 for unsubsidized Heros.
Sprint only only charges $429.
I also just noticed (in the fine print) that the $50 Best Buy gift card is NOT redeemable for cash.

Were you able to get your money back from Best Buy when you canceled it? Do you know if there is a time limit for canceling? Does anyone know when Sprint will do preorders for the Evo? I ask because I just made my preorder today at BB and realized afterward they will steal $150 from me (it's not stealing, it's Capitalism which I'm all for, it still sucks though) and want to avoid that if at all possible.
i preordered in bestbuy but on my receipt it said to pick it up on june 5th?anyone else?

I made the stupid mistake of creating $300 in gift cards to help budget for this. If I get stuck having to pay another 300 there will be problems. They're going to adjust my price or refund my money.
As I understand it, you can use the gift card towards the price of the phone. Just pre-ordered mine today too.

I went in and they instantly gave me cash (paid with debit). I'm sure that you'd be fine getting a refund all the way until June. Just tell them that you don't want a marked up phone, and they hadn't released the price when you paid.

Buying at a sprint store: waiting list?

So, i just called a sprint store near me, and I was told that there are no pre-orders at sprint stores, but i have to get on the waiting list which is available on sprints website, which i'm not sure if she meant it's available now, or will be soon. Can anyone explain this to me?

Where does it say that radioshack has no MIR. As I understand it they do have a MIR. I prefer 100$ less on initial investment to free 20$.
I preordered with Radioshack on Fri. No MIR, and free $20 giftcard. It's true.

There just aren't any RSs near where I work. Besides, I found out about RS after I pre-ordered from BB.
If you can find one, it'd be worth it to get a refund on your BB gcard and just get to a Shack location.
i've been reading some other forums, seems like the only downside about not buying directly from sprint is that it can be harder to get fast and easy phone swaps at the local sprint store if something is wrong - sprint stores will apparently only use the TEP to change a phone if you didn't buy from them (may have to wait for them to send the phone away and then get it back). don't know how much of this is true, but there was extended discussion about it on a palm forum regarding how people had problems after getting the new palm pre from other vendors.

The 25% discount she gets is already attached to her account. You can go to a RadioShack (or bby) and that will not be affected.
(And no, I can't answer the original question either. An online waiting list sounds bogus though..)
went to my local sprint store, corporate, asked about a wait list, they said they didn't have one but that it was available from sprint.com after clicking on the evo add. I think they are confused about the difference between a waiting list and email updates . . .

No, when you leave the store at preorder, you walk out with your $50 on a giftcard to be used toward your purchase. ($199-$50 giftcard preorder=$149.99). When you come in and pay the remainder and pick up your Evo, you will receive your $20 giftcard toward anything you'd like.
That's on a per-phone basis, so for you, you'd be getting $20 per each phone.

Have mom go to a RS, let them open an account for her (wont have to get phones yet) and pre-order. All she has to do is tell them to add her discount AT THE VERY BEGINNING of the application process and it will be ready and waiting when you go get the phones on the 4th. (And since you will have preordered, you will have them guaranteed for you!)
RadioShacK is the place to get the phone.
Radioshack does not have MIR, 199.99 for new and upgrades, free $20 for accessories, Better service than the sprint store guaranteed, No lines, you phone will be there waiting on you not the other way around. Chose what time you want to come and get your phone.
We preordered through our companies evpdiscount.com website and the phones were 174.99 each.
For me it's www.evpdiscount.com/meridian
is there an activation fee at radioshack?
My work will pay for electronics, so I buy at sprint for $300, give them the bill, get my $100 rebate, then get $300 back from work = -100 for me.

Any I/O attendees interested in selling their EVO?

What do you say?

No one as of yet has posted in the South Florida area. Hopefully someone brings one home
There is a guy that claims to have 5 in hand here on the Seattle craigslist...$400 each. I'll wait until June 4th...
For me, the extra premium was worth it. I was going to get an Evo 4g when it came out and I'm only 10 months into my 2 yr contract with Sprint so after the ETF + the cost of the Evo 4g + California taxes on the original price, the cost would've been comparable. And this way, no new contract to sign or rebate to deal with.
I see your point. I am currently on AT&T using an iPhone 3GS, so waiting works for me. I am hoping to sell the 3GS for close to enough to cover the cost of the EVO plus my ETF.
wow someone has one close to me for $450 but ive pre-ordered already. I think i can wait...... .=(
Look on eBay. Noone in PA is going to have one so I bought one on eBay. Hefty premium including the overnight shipping I requested but totally worth it. I get it on Saturday! yay!
damn. there is one guy close by me but he's asking close to $700. i think im going to wait until the 4th.

Yeah the people putting them up for 700 are nuts. Call and offer them 400-500 and they will sell.
I just bought mine from some guys from another country and couldn't use at home, they are here for another week (SF). They had 2 more and were willing to sell for 450, they asked me if I knew anyone else who wanted to buy them.
I referred them here... so they may pop up in this thread.

Thanks for the EVO.
I have one to see and I am based in Cupertino and San Jose if anyone is interested.
I think $450 is too low, these guys must really want to get rid of it...
It includes a month's worth of unlimited usage and an 8Gb SD card and the ability to get the Google I/O plan...
I posted it on Craigslist for $600, but I'll let it go here for $550.

Why did I spend so much money on this phone again? I remember with my iPhones they retained their value, this is a HUGE degradation in a matter of months? I guess I won't be able to sell this phone when I'm ready to upgrade.

You do realise there's a HUGE difference between an iPhone and... well... any other phone, right? People flock to iPhones like gnats to a sweaty forehead. And not even just the US. Hell, i sold my iPhone 4 that i had since they came out to someone in Russia for $450. That was enough to cover the cost of the iPhone when i originally bought it, PLUS the Atrix. I've only ever seen one person NOT in an AT&T store that had an Atrix. Just about every smartphone you see on the street is some version of the iPhone. And with the 3GS now being $49.... I'd imagine that ratio will be even higher. People don't know how to find a good phone. They know what is crammed down their throat no matter where they turn... and that just happens to be any Apple product, really.
Hell... look on TV. You see at least 5 iPhone commercials for every single Atrix commercial... and they advertise the lapdock more than the phone itself it seems.

Dunno, they still seem to go for a fairly nice sum of money. I'd imagine it would still be rather nice a bit from now, especially being a dual core.
yeah store was closed here. I tried calling att to see if they would price match the 100 bucks at bestbuy and they told me nope and if i wanted bestbuy's price i should cancel and goto bestbuy. does att charge a restocking fee for canceling a plan within the 30 days?

Yes. Check their website for the exact amount.
BTW, they give this phone for free in Europe with contract.

Buying the N4 outright at T-Mobile

Do you think T-Mobile will be selling the Nexus 4 off-contract for the same $349 price that Google is selling it for? If so, it would be easier to walk into my local T-Mobile store and buy it, instead of waiting for Google to ship it.
Probably not, I would assume that every carrier would have somewhat of a mark-up on the phone. I would still bet on getting the better deal off the play store.
But isn't the T-Mobile version going to support faster speed for T-Mobile?

As far as I know, there are no carrier specific versions of the Nexus 4, so what you get from T-Mobile is what you get from the play store. There is some confusion cause T-Mobile have said it will do 42Mbps and the play store just says 21, but the consensus seems to be that the play store is wrong.

But isn't the T-Mobile version going to support faster speed for T-Mobile?

There is not a special version for T-Mobile:

Just got that right now, T-Mobile's announcement was confusing.
Thanks guys!
Definitely considering this phone, I love my S3, but Pure google is awesome.

Do you think T-Mobile will be selling the Nexus 4 off-contract for the same $349 price that Google is selling it for? If so, it would be easier to walk into my local T-Mobile store and buy it, instead of waiting for Google to ship it.

According to a reliable source, TMoNews, on Twitter, T-Mobile plans to sell the phone at full retail price for $499.99 or $199 with a two year contract. I think T-Mobile must be out of its mind!

Long story bro, I had galaxy s3 international version, and I am using t mobile pre-paid atm so I was getting 2G only. So I was so freaked out thn put ads on CL, a guy call me that he wanna buy it for $500. I was like lets meet up, after few hours latter he came with a car and I was asking him to come to a public place but he was like he couldn't find that location etc. So I found him on a empty street, so he ask me to show him the phone. I gave the phone and box to his hand he was looking at it thn another car came behind his car. he was like let me give him pass. I was standing at the street close to his car window. he said let me give the other guy pass thn before i say anything he was gone :crying: everything was planed out for sure. $730 gone learn my lesson though.
Thn I went to t-mobile and buy out another S3 but it had some screen problem so I exchanged it and got another. Which has screen gap problem in left side. So yesterday I ordered a unlimited pre-paid plan with a S2 free phone, which is going to in my hands tomorrow. once i received it i will go to t-mobile and ask for a refund for S3, I have to pay restocking fee $50 and in the mean time i am gonna use S2 and wait for N4
No reason for Branded N4...
Why would you even WANT to buy the Nexus 4 at T-Mo? Way I see it is, if you grab the plain one off the play store... It's just that, Plain. No T-Mo apps, no chance of having a branded phone that'd have a lower resale value.
Like everyone, I'm planning on buying from the play store but would one that you buy from t-mo be unlocked, also or would it be locked to t-mobile?

T-Mobile is not releasing a customized version of the Nexus 4. They are selling the Nexus 4 identical to the Google Play version. That means no carrier modifications whatsoever.

Agreed! :angel: craigslist: always be carrying... I've always met in a public place, prefer starbucks (allowed to carry in the store) , always have my glock on me, if I didnt feel comfortable I'll walk away, have someone else with you as well.
Craigslist is too damn sketchy anymore
I cut back on craigslist transactions since I bought an iphone 4s unlocked. I was trading and selling lot of android phones always wanted the newest one. Traded my gs3 for an iphone 4s plus $200
The nexus 4 has me tempted to purchase it brand new and just have the iphone as a back up or possibly sell it. Would like to get 3g/4g services again instead of the 2g but I do really like the IOS

That's a sad story but at least you don't have to worry about that when you buy your Nexus 4 on the play store!
Would this work on att lte?

This has been posted on another thread, but the Play Store specs were incorrect yesterday and have since been updated to show HSPA+ 42. This should mean that if your carrier supports those speeds the phone will take advantage of them. So yes for T-Mobile, no for AT&T (HSPA+ 21 only).
I can't post links as a new user, but you can go to the Play Store and check it out.

Tmo will be selling the same version as the play store (there only one version of the phone) so I plan on buying mine outright at the Tmo store to save on shipping. I live or work within walking distance of four Tmo stores, so its easier to go into the store then have it delivered. But this all hinges on Tmo charging $349 for the 16GB version.
