Google Pixel Australia Thread - Google Pixel Guides, News, & Discussion

Thought I'd start a thread for the Aussie users...

That's me! Still haven't got the ota for 7.1.1 for mine yet. Don't know if it's got something to do with Telstra or not, though I bought mine outright, not on a contract.
Pretty lazy of me wanting the ota rather than just flashing it myself...... Can't even both rooting these days, I've been finding stock android so user friendly as it is.

I can't be bothered rooting either...happy to wait for OTA :good:

ota can flashed or sideloaded though.
1 question! How's the shipping speed for **** smith purhases to melbourne? It's 999 aud for 32gb.
Can it can be delivered by next saturday? Got a friend going there and planning to have him collect from another mate of mine in melbourne,

DSE is now owned by Kogan...The web side anyway as the shops have been shut so best bet would be to check with them as it would also depend where it was shipping from.

Got the 7.1.1 OTA update today...

finally update arrived.

One thing to check with this stuff are the bands that the phone can use. I've often looked at stuff from Kogan, only to find in little writing somewhere that it's an international model and it's bands may differ from those in Aus, and to check it out. Always turns me off the idea...

Do you Australian folks have to run your screen 180 degrees to read upside down?
How often do you hear this awful joke?

pixel has all worldwide bands iirc but yea, previous nexus models had varying band options depending on US vs Row.
got it from jb hifi instead. how does the google warranty work for Aussie models? The customer rep said 1st year is from google and 2nd year is jb hifi.

Got my 32gb silver pixel from JB Hi-Fi here in Perth for $1000, they have some promotion happening as well.. If you buy any pixel phone, you'll get daydream vr for free with it.

My Google Pixel XL was bought from JB Hi-Fi Perth but I lost the purchased receipt. Does the Google 1-year warranty still cover if anything happens with the phone?

UK availability

I see the Atrix is showing as available (3 units) for £549.95 at Simply Electronics:
http://www.simplyelectronics.net/mainproduct.php?pid=13376&sd=specs
and due week beginning 28th March for £499.99 from King of Gadgets:
http://www.kingofgadgets.co.uk/motorola-atrix-sim-free-unlocked-mobile-phone.html
I can't find any other UK sites at the moment with either phones in stock or even an expected date though.
Anyone got the UK version yet?
I'm not the only one looking then lol.
I spoke to king of gadgets yesterday to confirm the due date. They have a high number of pre orders and are unsure of their initial stock allocation but week commencing 28th is still the date they have.
I've also got a notification request in at Play, and am monitoring clove, expansys and others.

Does the software have any of the AT&T stuff or is it completely unbranded as well as unlocked?
are you sure the atrix on those sites are unbranded models and not just unlocked AT&T phones?
i dont think you can buy an unbranded atrix anywhere...
King of Gadgets is now showing a due date of July rather than week beginning 28th March. Oh well...

It had the AT&T stuff but you can remove it via Manage Applications, also the seller unlocked it before he sold it
The only branding you would have is the AT&T logo on the back which you can wet sand off, other than that all of the bloatware can be removed.
Also it was only £360 imported which is a steal in my opinion, I hate UK prices of phones and gadgets
Mine is for sale if any of you internationalers are interested
I just bought one from eCell on eBay, £499 unlocked. They are adamant it is a totally unbranded device, but still show the at&t logo on the back cover in their photos. They have loads for sale though. I'll report back when I get it through.
Anyone else got this in the UK? Did it get the update through? Anyone got a totally unbranded device and not an unlocked at&t model?
I just requested a MoDaCo page for it as well.

Hi All.
i got mine from ATT in Dallas and it's unlocked to o2 uk. Got the unlock code from cellunlock.
Working fine, got the update last week, no wifi issues, no issues.
i don't believe there are unbranded phones yet, they are either att or bell. if it has att on the battery cover then it's definitely an att phone.
This is just my opinion.
Even though i'm dying to get one , i wont purchase the phone unless it's from a reliable source . Right now i'm checking expansys , handtech and clove almost daily to see if there is any update regarding the device availability but still there is no sign beside the indication that the accessories will be available in the 1st week of April @ clove .. sometimes i feel i lost the sense of the date >_<

Same here. I got burned on eBay with a G1 later reported as 'stolen'. It took me 6 months and a lot of legal threats (plus some police involvement) to get my money back...

Monkey see, monkey do.
What I'd like to know is: do these unlocked phones have AT&T software on them that prevents sideloading and tethering?

*If* you decide to keep it, then it's easy to remove the AT&T logo. I did it (and documented all over the net) by just scratching it off with a coin. Leaves no traces and does not scratch the surface.

Nice, thanks for that. I just sold my Nexus S because the back scratched way too easily, a coin would have killed the finish so it's good to know a coin would do no such damage on this device.
I may start a new thread and document everything about getting the phone into the UK, although it doesn't seem difficult.
eCell seem to be reputable on ebay. They sell a lot of phones and have 600k+ positive feedback so I'm not too worried about getting scammed. They want to wait 5 working days before shipping it to make sure I pay them and the money checks out. They are more worried about getting scammed by me by the looks of things. Still, £499 isn't cheap, but probably cheaper than Clove and Expansys, and definitely cheaper than Play.com will be, as they always seem to be the premium rip-off merchants.
I'll do a comparison between the UK ones and the AT&T ones as well. Curious if they will have sideloading and tethering out of the box so I'll let you know when I find out Moandal.
If not there's gonna be a bit of hacky sacky to do.
I have a contract renewal in May anyway so if this phone turns out to be a pile of AOL Online cds then I can sell it on and upgrade to a Pyramid or something.
Also, UK Accessory list, expected in 5-8 days.

I wish i 'd seen your post before I dived in. I too have bought from ecell. I previously had a at+t phone that was somewhat restricted. I hope this device is direct from Motorola factory. I expect delivery next week. I expect side loading and tethering all to be available without any carrier restrictions. Well this is why I am paying for a second phone... I know moto make great phones.
Btw.... ANYONE READING THIS DO NOT BUY FROM SIMPLY ELECTRONICS. I paid for a phone and then cancelled my order same day. 2.5 weeks, 6 phone calls, 5 emails I still have no refund.

[Q] Cheapest Place for Galaxy s2 in the US?

title says it all...since the galaxy s2 isnt available by any carrier yet...where is the cheapest place to get it? Ive only seen it on expansys...any others?
Prices seem to be slowly but steadily decreasing, here are probably the best places to keep an eye on.
Amazon, Google Shopping, and eBay. I would post links, but I don't have enough posts yet. You can find direct links at pastebin.com / mLf88e7L (without spaces ).
Amazon has them for like $689 right now + Prime
Try unlocked mobiles its the chepeast I found
Then Amazon then handtec then expansys
Thanks for posting as well; I'm thinking about getting one; I'm hoping to stay under 700.

get a sd card if u dont have one ( for backups etc - CWM )
I just bought mine from an Amazon seller (Warehouse Distributors). It was $684 with free shipping.
It just shipped, so I'll update you guys. I am a bit worried that they will screw me somehow (seem small, don't have their own domain for email or website), but calling them got to a live person, and seem friendly enough. In fact, they were able to pricematch when their price dropped a day later by $14 (was $698 when I ordered).
I hope it's not an open box or a box of rocks. Actually, if it was a box of rocks, it'd be suspicious even without opening since the phone is super light!
Either way, I'll update you guys on how it went. I'm expecting the phone by the end of this week.
i placed my order @ mobilecityonline.com last week. it was $699 + $4.99 shipping - $20 online coupon = $684.99 shipped. however, its price has risen since then, so apparently it was temporarily on sale. basically, just keep looking around bc its always changing on different sites, and look out for coupons.

I was hesitant about buying from most of the import sites in the US but surprisingly mobilecityonline has far less negative reviews than other sites dealing the sgs2 such as popularelectronics.com or negri. I received it just like they promised via fedex no issues. They even called me and emailed me to confirm my purchase and stressed that i have 14 days to return it.
The only gripe is that they listed it as the UK version but when i got it, it said Samsung Romania on the label and included non-english manuals. Also, the US power adapter that came in the box isn't working for me. No biggie tho bc everything else checked out. Used it for 2 days now and so far im satisfied.

US power adapter in the box? Did they open the factory box to put it in there?
I didn't even think of them putting another country's phone in there. I would be expecting the UK version.
I would expect a US power adapter included with an international phone. Any others wanna chime in?
And the box was factory sealed.

Shipped from the UK.
Why suck my grits. After I took a risk and bought it from an Amazon seller, I found this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16875176292
It doesn't get any better than $689.99 + $5.99 shipping from none other than NEWEGG.
A trusted place with excellent customer service. Can't go wrong with NewEgg. At least it will benefit the people who waited.
Now... say thank you!
nfc included?
I wonder, does the newEgg version comes with NFC?
Also, been that it is been bought from an U.S. seller, can I get warranty from squaretrade for this phone? I know can i can buy it in the u.k. and get squaretrade in the u.k., but i dont want to have to send it to squaretrade u.k., I prefer the u.s. squaretrade.

Finally got it yesterday. Was in a unpadded box. But turned out okay for the most part.
Had a US power supply. Looks like a Latin America model (primary language on the box was Spanish, and so was the manual).
I found 5 green pixels when viewing a dark gray background.
ordered mine last week from amazon for 689 with FREE prim 2 day shipping. I payed the extra 3.99 for one day shipping. I had no issues with the shipping process, everything went smooth. One important thing i will add though is that when i recieved my phone the battery was completely dead, i had to keep the phone on the charger for about an hour and a half before i could turn it on. Eventually i put the phone in download mode and then pressed the down volume rocker which restarts the phone. My version was in polish, so it took a few moments to find the language setting and switch it to english. I found the whole preces pretty cosmical and my friends think im crazy for purchasing an unlocked european phone. But then again they all have Blackberrys so there opinion is moot lol. Im loving my phone right now and dont remember the last time i was this satisfied from an expensive purchase.
edit... i just read that some people had some worries about the shipping condition. my phone was shipped in two boxes. the first was the standard shipping box. then it was in a bigger cell phone style box. similar to what you would get from a carrier. this box was a little beat up, but thankfully the official samsung box was inside in great condition and still sealed. so for who ever was wondering, my us dongle was in the second box not the official samsung box where the actual phone, earphones, sync cable, and euro charger was in.
Handtec is offering £404.98 (shipping included) for North American buyers. That's only 570 Cdn.... It's suprisingly lower than the pricetag on amazon or other non-Euro sites. The price's been decreasing, too. Anyone know why the price has been decreasing steadily (as mentioned in the previous thread)? Is it because of the upcoming iPhone 5 or because of market saturation in Europe? I might order one after Canadian carriers confirm their models. I refuse to buy a SGSII with the LCD variant

Have you ordered your Nexus 10?

Well it was hard work but I finally managed to get my order though for the Nexus 10.
How was everyone else's experience? Did you have problems with the Google Play site like I did?
Still having problems, trying to order Nexus 4 16gb with bumper and nexus 10 32 gb in one basket but even they appears and disappears very quickly. Now none from nexus 4 devices is available, also there is no option to buy bumper for nexus 4 and only available option is to buy nexus 10 16gb... cant wait to buy them all

I think they all sold out
sure did!
Google , take my money now ! please ....
Managed to get it after an hour hitting refresh and putting it in and out of the basket. The 16GB N10
yeah, N7 and N10 16gb is available for sale, but rest of nexuses are sold out :/
So is this even going to be available in the us by the time they allow us to order it or is it just going to be sold out in the us. I set two alarms and got no sleep to find out I don't even have a chance to purchase it.

Well UK orders are being shipped from Ireland therefore I would imagine US orders will be shipped from the US therefore they will all still be in stock for you guys. Everything was available to purchase from around 8:30am on the 13th so ppl from the US have a few hours to wait yet I guess...
I managed to get a 32gb version after some teething issues with the site. Looking forward to the weekend now if it arrives as promised.
When you guys ordered where there any options such as a charger or cover available?
Thanks
Ordered the 32GB. There were no accessory options. Took me two goes after getting online at 8:30am before it went through. By the time I packed up and got to work (~20 mins later) it was all sold out.
Delivery was £9.99 and states "two day" delivery.
Hopefully this means we'll have them on Thursday.
Im in Canada and it never became on sale still tells me to notify. I never got any email and I checked every hour thru the night
The times posted were for European (and before that Austrailia), it probably hasn't made it to America yet, and by extension, Canada.
Does it say November 13th for you guys like the rest of us? You must be later today after they deal with all the orders from the rest of the world.

Ordered the T-Mobile version!

I ordered the T-Mobile version earlier today, FINALLY. Not sure if I should have waited for the DEV edition, but the T-Mobile version comes with an unlockable bootloader so I guess that's good. If the DEV edition becomes available later this week I will simply return the tmo version and get that.
Anyone else order the T-Mobile Moto X?
UPDATE: Our Moto X's have started shipping, although the moto site still does not reflect it. Showing a delivery date of 9/16 (Monday)!

Might wait for the Dev. Edition and/or Motomaker edition, the appealing thing about the Moto X is the possibility of the 32gb internal storage and you won't get that with the carrier version.
Do we know if the Dev edition will come with T Mobiles AWS HSPA? If so, that is what I'm going to wait for.

It probably won't. The T-Mobile version does though, and is fully unlockable... so I'd go with that one.
Almost bit the bullet and bought one of these. Can't justify dropping 600 bucks for 16gb and from most accounts a poor camera and average screen. I really wanted to love the phone, but in my limited time in playing with one, I just don't feel it's a 600 dollar product. Motorola pays 220 dollars to have the phone made, they would have taken over the world if they didn't try to get 3x the price out of customers.

Thanks for wishing me luck, it worked. I bought a LG G2 for 600 dollars. Problem solved. I appreciate the luck! :good: 32GB, 1080P screen, Great camera with OIS, for the same price. It wasn't the fact that phones cost 600 dollars, its the fact that Motorola is charging 600 dollars for that phone. Its not a 600 dollar piece of hardware. Anyway, I'm good to go now, back to my regularly scheduled G2 forums. Best of luck X guys! Its really a cool and unique phone.

You're welcome
And congrats!
I tried to order one several times yesterday. I had it the basket every time and when I clicked the purchase button I kept getting a message about an error with my credit card which has plenty of money on it. Now I have three holds pending on my credit card in the amount of the purchase and they all say Motorola Direct. First chat session was cut off and second one was with a person saying the only moto x available for purchase was the att exclusive one. I told them they had bad information and they insisted I was wrong. I made a call about it and have had two call backs today but each time I was busy. Hoping for another call back today because I'm not going to sit on hold for another 20 minutes today to see what they have come up with. They did admit that the website has a problem but without more info I am in the dark still I'm losing my faith in this company and it sucks because I want to try this phone and give them a chance but it is frustrating so far. I know its early in the game for the T-Mobile variant but damn, its not looking good so far.

Same here.. Ordered yesterday and still no shipping notification. Not sure why the delay when it shows in stock. Anyone spoke to Moto customer care?

In other threads that don't have to do with the t-mobile version, people have reported the phone showing up even before the motorola order status page was updated. So....anyway, take that with some heavy salt.

Hopefully that's true because it sucks to wait for a phone in stock. Does anyone know if signature is needed for delivery?

Hopefully this gives us an idea of when they will be released for other carriers.. I don't know about you guys, but I'm anxious Mod Edit Please mind your language

Finally some good news about the note edge. Been waiting for this kind of news since the announcement during their live stream
That's very good.
Only 10days off from the said Nov 4th release.
In that case tmobile should start taking preorders Nov 1st. That would be 2 weeks before launch. I believe they did the same amount of time with the note 4.
Now if we could get a price that would be nice. Either way im going to do my best to get it day one.
Lucky you guys!
My only option is looking like one of those from ebay. I am not sure if the Exynos version is the right one?
Just spent £650 on the Note 4...
u guys think that amazon or ebay will sell unlocked note edge units from t-mobile to the middle east? im wondering if it will be cheaper there.

I know ebay will.
If people buy them and pay in full they can get the unlock code that same day.
I did that with my note 3. I got it from the tmobile store and paid in full and i was able to ask for the unlock code online.
So i bet you will see them on ebay a week after release for $100 to $200 more then tmobile site plus shipping.
I doubt amazon will have any. I don't see any third party sites having them, best buy, radio shack, etc... There have been reports if only 1 more llion devices to be released due to strict protype details and this is basically a marketing scheme. Now I can't wait. I want the N4 bad, but I'm liking the NEdge.
I also don't see many carriers having them in store either. Looks more like a preorder thing. Unless they do an Apple and only release at stores for the hype and line build.
Snap crackle and pop it lol......
Tmobile update there site saying it will come out 11/14

I have no clue. I dont jump on my side. I was going to use my EIP credit to get the phone and then sell my note 3 on ebay.
My girls line has JUMP! When i last talk to Tmobile they said that you must have paid at lest 50% of your phone off. They will take your old phone and give you 50% of the priced of the phone when you brought it. and that would be credited towards your new phone.
NOw that is for a normal trade. I dont know who it would work for Pre-orders tho.
If you got a tmobile account just get online and do an online chat and ask about using jump on a preorder phone. Dont tell them up front about the note edge or they will tell you they dont have any information on it.
I did a chat with tmobile a few minutes ago about preordering the note edge and they just said they dont have any information but to watch the page as it will be updated soon.
Is T-Mobile even doing pre-orders?

I'm interested in the Note Edge as well but I'm really hoping T-Mobile will have pre-ordering online.
Also, I'm kind of scared about how some people who have it in other regions are experiencing lag. The Note 4 has been receiving decent reviews and nobody has been mentioning any lag so since the Note Edge is basically a Note 4 with an edge screen, you would think the performance would be about the same.

Hope That's true I spoke to them yesterday for a half hour , and just got off the phone , I asked for retention so could get to talk to someone who really knows what there talking about not some parrot reading off of a computer screen , which is what I got yesterday , I hammered the question about 5 times about being able to pre order , even went as far as saying I know someone who pre ordered , (which was a little white lie to see what he would say) and he insisted that there was not not and never will be a preorder on that phone , seeing as how the will be on store shelves in 8 days not sure what help pre ordering or how much faster you would get your hands on the phone sooner then 8 days , I really hope you are correct and I was totally misled , guess we'll see Monday ........:good:

I believe the price is going to be in the 900 $ range ..plus tax , screen protector and case , this will probably be the most expensive phone sold the general public ever , I believe your going to pay aroung 1,000 when all is said and done , hope I'm wrong but that's what my research is telling me...

Yea I got the price range its said to be 850 to $870 plus tax.. Its not the highest I paid for a phone tho lol.
I brought a sony p990 which cost about $1100 some years ago.
And I already order me a screen protector and silicone case. Should be here right before the phone. The cases were $2 each and screen protector $4.
Edit.
Also some have said tmobile will start preorder on the 10th but who knows, all we know is it will be released the 14th
I also hope Tmobile does online preorders because I don't want to go from store to store seeing if they have any in stock and taking the chance that they may already be sold out by the time I get to each store.
Countdown!!!
Three more days to pre-order this bad boy. Can't wait. Going with T-Mobile $870 model. Ouch!!! Expensive but did you see AT&T price??? $945....Super OUCH!!! But....have to get it. Looking forward to see what DEVS get involved with this phone!!!! See you all soon!

I must say my Edge seems way more smoother than my Note 4. Obviously Edge has the Exynos processor, and Note 4 has Snapdragon. My main concern right now is high RAM usage, I only have around 350MB free ram. Hope Samsung does something to improve this. The good news is that, I haven't had any issues of the device heating up at all so far which is great!
I just dropped by a local corporate store and they had no info on pre orders.
I even went to att since I read somewhere that on the 7th they would have a demo phone. They didn't have one. I was told that 11-17 is the release date.
