I went online at exactly 12:00 PM when the play store opened and had my new Nexus 4 16 gig model in the shopping cart and was checking out when I was kicked out of the site from an processing error.
When I went to select the 16 gig model to begin the process over again, the "coming soon" message appeared and wanted my email address. This is total bull****, a company the size of Google can't even launch a product properly?
Now both the 8 and 16 models can't even be selected from the site. I have been waiting and waiting for this phone to be released and can't even buy one. Total bull****.
I suspect it's to generate hype for it. I was lucky enough to get one of the 8gb restocks about 6 hours ago.
Happened to me also! Worst store around!!
Same thing happened to me. Oh well I guess I'll update my Galexy Nexus and Nexus7 to 4.2 and try again later.
Same as everyone else. I tried for 25mins got the same errors. Went to a store and bought one. Never buying through Google again

Already Sold out
keep refreshing throughout the day. I've seen the COMING SOON page switch to IN STOCK a few times already, so I 'd imagine this will happen throughout the day as orders fail and phones go back to stock.
Cant get it either
We've all been waiting mate. Many people are being very cynical towards Google. I don't think people understand how many people are accessing their sites simultaneously. I also think people aren't used to not getting what they want. To think people expect Google to be able to support the world's demand for the Nexus 4.
Play store started the sale before 9am (PST).
Such a joke. We got troll'd
You can't even get the bumpers either. . . :-/
yeah i know it is just a phone but that is serious bs.... it's google how can their server be that bad.. do you guys even think there were that many for sale? I doubt it really sold out a ton of units in 5 mins...
Wish I could just preorder it and have them send it to me when they get stock ASAP. It'd be unbelievably more convenient for them and for us, since they would get an idea of the amount of sales and we wouldn't have to worry about not getting one in the next few weeks.
Same here I wonder if we crashed the system. Cant see how as google runs most of the internet.
Silly make a few phones.
Wonder did they think we don't now a steal when we see one. I'll bet we will see them on EBAY for 500 to 600 easy come christmas time they'll go for 900 and up.
Merry Christmas were screwed. Worst part I'll bet some people bought like 100 plus phones. Just so rip people off. Google didn't even stop and say you can only use one phone and purchase up to 5 for your family.
This thread is of no value

Never any purchase delays when Google has 10 cent app sales. They have the capacity to handle this smoothly. It is all a big marketing fiasco and Google pooped on its most determined customers.
Crazy to say 12. Have us guess what time zone. Have reps say different ****. Then say 9 PST but sell it beforehand. Many of us wasted our time to this.
I'm planning to get one for my gf for christmas but i'll only have a weekend in the US to purchase one and have to make sure I get one.
Are they in stock at AT&T stores nationwide? I'm going to be in south florida (miami/ft. lauderdale area) and just want to make sure. I tried ordering on AT&T's website but you can't purchase it without a contract, I hope it's not like that in store too.
Any suggestions?
Simply put, are they in stock everywhere or will I have a hard time finding one?

Hard to say, I bought mine the first the day it came out. The AT&T store where I got it only had one (the one I bought) but maybe in miami they´ll have more because it's a larger city!!!
I didn't have to get a contract, but some people have reported they were forced to get a contract at AT&T retail stores

I had same experience, it looks like most AT&T stores had 1-2 quantities, best to call if interested maybe you can get a $100 reduction due to employee false advertising (a mistake made during my transaction but honored)
Thanks for the replies... This will be the weekend the make it happen so *fingers crossed*
At least there isn't a mad rush for them it doesn't seem.
As others have suggested call ahead. I went in yesterday not thinking they'd have them. They haven't gotten their display units in and only had two in stock. The salesman said since November they only sold one. Most people don't know about the camera yet and Samsung hasn't done its national campaign yet.
I'm in NY, had to hit 3 different stores - 1 didn't even carry it, 1 tries to sell me a contract to get it, in the third store I asked for a manager because I wanted to buy it full retail without a plan, finally walked away with it in my bag. Oh yea, i love this thing!
Generally you can go to the AT&T website, find the Galaxy Camera, click on "Check In-Store Availability", and then give the Zip Code for where you are interested. Any that say "OUT OF STOCK" are indeed, out or never had. For "IN STOCK" it is best to call first unless you don't mind driving. Stock is based on the previous day's updates, and you never know who might have been there first.
Well, just to update everyone, it was a no go.
None of the stores in the Miami/Ft.Lauderdale area had them in stock.
Thankfully they have started popping up on amazon so i went ahead and got it there. Also kinda happy that I got the unlocked one also since i wouldn't be using it on AT&T anyways.
So the camera is with a friend of mine and i'll be getting it next Friday.
I reserved the Galaxy s4 at my local Sprint store on Monday. Walked in today and they had 8 available. So needless to say, you might want to check your local Sprint store to see if they had any shipments because mine did. By the way I returned the HTC One for this phone and I couldn't be happier.

Sprint won't be my carrier but if they have them in store I would stop by just to check out the phone in person, assuming they have one for display.
Our 2 local sprint stores and BB all got the Sprint S4's in today. I almost bought one, but they would not match the online price of $149 that I could get on sprint.com by adding a new line. So I came home and ordered one up instead. $100 is a $100. But it was nice to play with one in the store a bit before making the final decision.

Wait, what? I thought Sprint delayed all of the S4s. When I called BB about my pre-order yesterday to see if it was affected, all I got was that it wasn't in yet and they wouldn't get any sort of an ETA because of them using drop shipment to (supposedly) get it there faster. I may have to drop in today and see what's up with that. >.>
Edit: Just did so. According to the rep I spoke with, Samsung only shipped the ATT phones. All other carriers' S4s have yet to show up. Anyone else running into something similar?

We went into the Sprint store shortly after they opened on Saturday just to see if they might have received any. I'd heard the delayed rumors too, so was not shocked when they said no. Mgr said he'd got an email the night before saying they might try to scrape a few together and get them there, so check back later. Basically the same story at the BB store 2 blocks away. Called later in the day and the Sprint store had them in. So I went in and played with it for a while. When they could not price match the web price, we went over to BB. They had also received the phones but would not match the price either.
All were Sprint phones, both colors, 16gb. They are getting delivered for retail sales, at least in some areas. Guaranteed. You can call the Sprint or BB stores in Rogers and Bentonville Arkansas to confirm it, if you'd like. They may all be sold out by now as there were folks lined up to look at them, but they had them for a while yesterday, at the least. I had a black one in my hands and ready to buy until the ad match snafu came up.
Sprint stores in NJ had them...but the store by me only had 6, 3 white / 3 black...I walked in after 3hrs of them being opened and they still had 4.

Haha your first paragraph was just be way my several went at one of my local corporate store I reserved a handset at. But when I called a friend at another corporate location just a few towns south of me, she said she had a huge supply but we're running low rapidly. And even at 10:15am the store was PACKED! So in turn, I had a feeling that some stores may have some supply. Which was exactly what happened. Funny, cause the 2 BB stores in Mt area have the Samsung booths. Neither were displaying anything. Which I thought was unusual, cause even though there is a delay, I would have thought that they would at least wanna show Em off

I got mine! 4.2.2 is alot different. Menu's have more to it. Overall I am liking the GS4. Bigger screen, smoother and faster than my GS3. I cant wait until a solid root is out there and for Ktoons OC kernel to come out! I can see this thing rocking 2.5 GHZ with it's quad core! My Quadrant score is already 12,772 stock, so I'm thinking 18,000 is possible!
I'm going to get mine right now! My local sprint store still has some left over from launch. And they're expecting more in tomorrow. Nice inventory scare tactic samsung
Spoke to a sprint employee on the 24th(after they stopped taking pre-orders) and was told they'd only get enough S4s to satisfy pre orders and then would have to wait for "a week or so" for a shipment of S4s for the general public. So I preordered from amazon and they said they'd ship the today and deliver May 1st. But yesterday I called local sprint stores and 3rd one I called said they had one left in white. Amazon preorder cancelled shortly their after . Any way what I took away from this fro any one still looking for S4s is that some sprint stores have general public stock but generally the bigger stores closer to downtown (I'm in Houston). The stores that only have pre order stock just don't know what the hell they are talking about .
I'm in Houston too and got mine from the Westpark store. They had plenty of them. Like 50 or so! Don't know about today though.....

I must have gotten lucky, because I ordered mine online from Sprint Saturday the 28th in the afternoon (pst), and received a shipping notification Sunday at 10AM and received my shipment Monday morning at 9:45 AM. Needless to say I was happily shocked
I was able to use Upgrade Now for $100 fee. They bought my cracked E4GT for $64. They said they had 13 white and 8 black.

I think it's meant to inform people that they are available at stores because there was originally talk of a shortage

Wait. What? My unspecified area's sprint phone store sells new phones on and after the release date? Inconceivable!

My local sprint store in memphis also has/had a bunch in stock opening day. I leisurely walked in not expecting them to have it, but they had about 10 left at closing in Saturday

At both of the Tmo locations near me, employees said they don't know when they'll have note 4s in stock (and that I should therefore preorder in store—I politely declined). Are they BSing me? How confident are we that any specific location will actually have them in stock the morning of the 17th?
They will definitely have them the 17th. If u would if pre ordered you would of had it the 13th or 14th
NOTE 4
They are just trying to make the sale. Bunch of BS. Not having enough phones in stock at launch is an issue of the past for the most part....that was may years ago. Samsung has made sure to stock up the stores....I've never had an issue of a store running out of the phone on launch day. That's just hype to get people stirred up. ie...strategy.
No worries....
:highfive:
Omg can't wait any longer...
Will probably take off work Friday morning to be extra safe.
I dropped by the T-Mobile store here near me (Springdale, AR) to get my wife the HTC One M8. I was talking to the rep there and kindly asked him when they are getting the note 4's in store. He said they wont be getting them until the 24th. Kind of weird that they would have them a week after launch date.
This was after I told him that I had already pre-ordered it and all that jazz, so I don't feel as if he was BS'ing me at that point.

He lied to you.lol the 24th lol. You should of asked to speak to a store manager. Unless the store you went to was not a corporate store. Then it might be.

I think he was bit off lol. He had also said the ZTE Zmax had 4GB of RAM. (which is obviously not true)
So my AT&T store got their N6's in-stock but as everyone knows they were recalled. They have no ETA on when they will have more in-stock BUT told me they can still order one for me threw something called the fulfillment center? They said it would take 3~5 days for it to ship.
Is this true?
If they can have them shipped in 3 to 5 days, why do they have no ETA on getting them? I'm reluctant to order one and then have the wait turn into weeks or even a couple months.
I'm almost thinking about getting an S5 tonight at Best Buy for the Black Friday $1.00 dollars deal. I REALLY want the N6 but my S3 is broken and I'm without a phone right now. It broke a just under two weeks before the N6 was due out so I didn't file a claim for insurance, just held out for the N6 and that damn recall crap happened.
I keep seeing people say they are just going to go get one from Best Buy but when I call any Best buy in my state they tell me they never got N6's and their system shows they never not N6's yet people keep saying here on XDA well I'm just going to go get one from BB etc.

First, the stores have been getting their replacement N6's for the past 2 days. Some stores got them in Tuesday, the ones near where I live got them Wed. Chances are high that, if your local stores don't have them already, they'll get them Friday.
As for "direct fulfillment" taking 3-5 days, it's kind of a random thing. I ordered one around noon on Tuesday with overnight delivery, and it showed up at my door Wed morning. (However, the AT&T website and the call centers all insisted it wouldn't ship until sometime in December.) I've read of some people taking a day or two before they ship out, and then another 2 days for actual delivery. It also depends on if AT&T has physical stock. (Also, if you order on black Friday, it's possible that no one will ship it until the following week - due to the holiday.)
If you want the nexus 6, I'd call your local corporate stores (more than one) Friday around 1pm to see if they got their daily shipment yet and if any nexus 6's came in.
Interesting that the AT&T store did not have any clue when they might receive a re-stock. I also checked another one that is in my local mall, I do not know if it's a corporate store but they said a few weeks.
I do know that no Best Buys in my state show any N6's have ever come in, one of the guys checked the computer for me.
I will go try the AT&T store tomorrow. I would rather SEE the phone I'm actually getting and not wait for it to just show up on my door step!
Thanks for the update. Side note this delay has allowed for my Digitronics TPU Gen 2 N6 case to be here when I do get my phone. Suppose to be delivered tomorrow!
N6 AT&T
No sign of the N6 in at&t stores or best buy in CA. I've checked every day this week. I will check again today.
I ordered mine before Thanksgiving from AT&T website and it arrived yesterday, haven't had any trouble with mine.

yeah I was able to pick up a Nexus 6 from ATT store yesterday here in Michigan, actually Angola, IN across board from me and I think My local ATT store has couple too and we are actually kind out away from any major city and they had them in stock and I was really surprise they did.
I should have updated the thread. I ended up finding one at one of the Corporate stores here in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
They got them in on Friday.
The At&t store here in Salem, Oregon has them, I just got mine today. The website wouldn't tell me a shipping date so I popped in on the off chance they had them in since the recall. The rep told me they just came in yesterday and were in the back still, then went and got me one. Seems they only have the midnight blue though.
UPDATE.

I finally found the phone after calling around to other at&t stores in nearby towns. Lesson learned; even though one employee from one store says noone has it, keep checking. They don't know and they dont care. They had three of them in stock and not a whole lot of accessories. As i was buying it, a lady asked me what phone it was and picked one up clueless. The employees barely know what they're selling if it's not a Samsung or iphone. The emoloyees had no idea they were the only stire with the phone in stock. So, the stores don't talk to one another and these were corporate stores, noy authorized retailers.
