[Official] Play Store orders & shipping thread!

Updated Dec 6 1:30AM EST
Below is specific only to the orders from the first day the Nexus 4 was live.
Limbo 1 order fulfillment: ~99%
Limbo 2 order fulfillment: ~99%
Limbo 3 order fulfillment: ~91% (the majority of orders fall into this category)
"fulfillment" = shipped
Above is my educated guess on the status of the shipments that have been going out. I'm constantly tracking this and several other sources for continuing information.
Current status of orders and shipments:
Points below are confirmed:
First major batch shipped Nov 19 (upgraded to Next Day Air).
All orders that took place on the 13th that were back-ordered will be upgraded to Next Day Air for free.
Play Store Customer Service do not have any relevant information about your order. Calling them is nothing short of a complete waste of time.
Orders have not been shipped on a first-come first-serve basis. There is no pattern to the shipments, it is seemingly random. We have indisputable evidence of this.
Addendum to above: It is believed that we are finally going in order. Some of the later orders were shipped first due to an incomplete manifest.
Many people have noticed the last updated date on the Play orders page has changed. No one is certain yet what this might mean.
Points below are likely:
Logistics have been outsourced to UPS.
Order mechanics "slid" during the initial rush of the first few minutes of the product going live. This caused several issues (including an incomplete manifest sent to UPS).
Status of your order (limbos):
1) Order placed. No e-mail of any kind (including order confirmation) received.
2) Order placed. Order confirmation received. No other e-mail of any kind received.
3) Order placed. Order confirmation received. Back-order e-mail received.

Tentative US order time: 09:00AM PST
Changed "confirmed" to "tentative". 09:00AM PST is most likely, but you should be watching out regardless.
These are some of my favorite threads here! We all heard that the Nexus 4 is now official but I'd wager that a lot of us are waiting for preorders to open up on the Play Store.
Post the usual "I ordered!" "It shipped!" etc. here! I, personally, cannot wait for this guy. Just sold my S3 for it.
I did call Google to ask if they were going to open pre-orders for the device. Doesn't look like it this time around, but I was told that you will be able to purchase on November 13th and that stock would start shipping "either on the 13th or the 17th," whatever that means.
Current information (as of Nov 12):
No one knows what time the purchase will go live.
Best guesses are sometime in the morning of the 13th (office hours), or at 00:00 PST. I'm personally leaning toward the former. (NEW: see below)
There will be no pre-order on the Play Store.
Check here for specific country availability.
Check here for more information on shipping and handling for your country.
A Virtual Credit Card (VCC) cannot be used with your purchase in the device store. Also, at this time, the country of your credit card must match the the country to which you're shipping.
Taxable charges, if any, depend on what state you're ordering from.
We do not know what shipping options will be available. Right now, only 2-day shipping is confirmed. We are hopeful for an overnight option at launch.
News added Nov 10:
Android Police got a little clarification from Google-- the rep said pretty much exactly what we've been assuming for the past couple of weeks. They also agree with me that the button will be more likely to go live in the morning sometime, rather than at midnight. See source here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...-shipments-start-november-13th-no-pre-orders/
News added Nov 13:
A German Google employee has revealed that the Nexus 4 should be selling at "around breakfast time" in Germany. He also mentioned that would be about 8-9AM. This would lead us to believe that the order form will go live at 0:00PST as originally anticipated. Germany is 9 hours ahead of Pacific Standard Time-- aka, 2AM Central, 3AM EST.[/url]

im guessing on nov 13th but they really didnt say.

From the Play Store:
Coming soon!
Available for purchase on Tuesday, Nov. 13th

Sure. But the Play Store says you can purchase it on the 13th.

I would imagine that means a direct purchase. It doesnt mention when pre-orders will start. I for one will definitely be pre-ordering (if possible) this phone. Just hope I can get around £160 for my HTC Desire HD with lots of cases and accessories included

hello guys , i am from montenegro.

I'll most definitely be getting one of these. The price is good, it looks good, and I really dig the wireless charging. I've many times where I'd just put my phone on my desk, forgot to connect the charger, and fall asleep just to wake up with a (mostly) depleted battery. Finally a worthy replacement for my ageing Nexus one.

I wouldn't be surprised if the wireless dock is not available for quite a while.

Here's to hoping they do same day delivery this time around which may explain no pre order date...

It's not too big of a concern. The wireless charging is a more of a luxury than anything. The most important thing is the option is available; the aftermarket solutions either adds thickness or look just plain ugly.

Correction: got confirmation already, had filter/label set in GMail, so it did not show up in my inbox *lol* Great day!

What's the price for 8GB version? Thank you!

I didnt get the confoirmation page but 30mins later I got the mail and it shows up on google wallet. i hope thats okay.
I ordered the bumper one hour later, that worked fine.
Even I was one of the first who ordered, I barely got through.

So on the website it says coming soon , oh man has it already sold out?

this sucks so bad. they sent me a mail at 9.40, i checked and it was already sold out. now i hear new devices will come "in weeks." wtf.

I tried to get the 16GB version but failed. Now I'm looking forward to receive my 8GB version

wow, great you can buy the bumper but not the phone itself...seems like some odd apple-style nightmare here....

3G Nexus 7 - Where To Buy - B&H .......

The 3g 32gb Nexus will be released tomorrow. Has anyone seen any signs that they are available anywhere besides the play store? I would like to avoid the taxes and/or shipping changes.
PS Does the play store take returns if i have a screen lift problem.
PPS Since I currently do have a 7" tablet, I don't need to buy tomorrow. However, I would like 2 !!!

1) Outside of a T-Mobile "internal" document, I haven't seen any real confirmation about the release tomorrow (or technically today). It very well might happen, but it also might not. I'm hoping B&M stores carry them too, but it's unknown right now.
2) Yes, you have 15 days (or something like that) for a return and a full year warranty directly through Play Store - if you buy through them.
3) Is that a question?

3) No, it was not a question. It was a plea for someone to tell me/justify my impulse to just buy the N7 as soon as it is released. I am also trying to resist buying the Nexus 4 on release.

Go to the play store and see what happens when you try to select the 3G N7. My browser seems to be glitching. Edit, NM, its back to normal now.
And the only place it says that this device will be released is on the official google blog, but beyond that, i haven't heard a single thing. I even called the CS line today, and the only thing they told me was that "There is no definite release date."

It was not released in Australia along with the N4 and the N10.

Ditto. Was a bit of a git getting on to the website intially, but I managed and I've ordered it. 3-5 working days delivery (£13.99 p&p) . I got in work late as I didnt want them selling out before I got one... waited bloody ages for this.
It seems that no "bricks and mortar" outlets will currently stock the 3g version of the Nexus 7 in the UK and the only place to get it is Play Store.

32g 3g Nexus 7 starting to come up as out of stock now in the UK

For those of you that got the HSPA+ N7, did you get a notification in your email saying that it had gone on sale first?
NM, I reread people's emails. I need to do that better, haha

from the looks of things, only people in EU/etc are getting availability so far.... which means they prob just checked the store and it was there.

Yeah I got an email at the moment the play store had the Nexus 7 3G in stock. However, I'd been checking it every few minutes anyway

I've been patiently waiting for this to come out, but it seems no stores are stocking it online. Not in the UK so Google Play order while possible, is a bit pointless.
Are there any retailers indicating they'll get stock soon?

There is NO indication at this point that any retailers apart from Google Play will be stocking the 3g version of the Nexus 7. I checked thoroughly or I would have bought in a shop rather than online, as I would have prefered to have checked the thing over.

3G Version is LIVE in the US Play Store.
Website is sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow.

Haha I ordered it before I ever received the email saying it was ready to go! I hope there are design changes so that the flickering is gone.

Plus, their phone support just shut down incoming calls.

Just got my ordered from play store at 9:09am PST. Total was $336.16 (California tax and $13.99 for 2 day shipping). It took me around 10 tries to finally get it to check out.

I finally got through too. My first browser just hung so I did a second order and it went through. Took like 40mins from start to finish. This unit better be perfect. I'm going to return my (perfect) 32GB once I receive the 3G unit, so I'll be pissed if I need to RMA the 3G one for some defect.

POLL: Did you manage to successfully order the Nexus 4 from Google Play on Nov 13th?

So I'm creating this thread to try and determine a percentage value (%) for how many people were actually able to successfully order the new Nexus 4 device on the Launch Date (Nov 13th, 2012) from the Google Play Store.
NOTE: BTW if you picked up your phone from a retail store/t-mobile/O2(UK) etc, then please do not vote, this is for Google Play Store orders only.
If you successfully ordered 1 or more Nexus 4 devices, then click YES.
If you encountered errors/out of stock/coming soon/ or any sort of processing error which resulted in you not managing to order a device. Then, click NO
Thank You

I'm in Toronto, Canada and was unable to order the Nexus 4 from Google Play, due to server errors.
I tried to order from about 11:36am to 12 noon with no success.

I was able to order mine at 8:34 pacific here in Washington state.

I'm in Germany, I managed to get one after a series of errors. I actually thought I hadn't made it also but then saw an email confirmation later.
But it's not been shipped yet.. :crying:
(00:33 UTC-8)

I was able to order one are 1:00PM EST. Was unsuccessful earlier, but kept refreshing and using Page Monitor Chrome extension. Got a 16GB N4 that is scheduled to ship before the week is over.

you should add an option in the poll

In UK, there at 8am refreshing until i got the ready for order. Had exactly the same experience as everyone else, errors galore on the order process, tried adding the bumper, the 16gb and 8gb, ended up getting an order for the 8gb and bumper! My credit card shows the amount as pending to come out, and Google wallet says shipping 15th.

Nope, nothing yet. I saw them say something like "Please don't email/phone us about dispatch dates for z1 owners who are getting a free sw2 as it will just give us more to do" on their blog or twitter or something though.
Good to know I'm not the only one but it's frustrating!

I just got an email from them saying that they expect to ship all of the smart watches by the end of the week.

Hi,
I also ordered an Xperia Z1 through the smartwatch 2 offer on clove. My smartwatch 2 hasn't shipped out yet, but I received an email from them saying that it should ship by by the end of the week. The only problem is that on the website it says that the black silicone strap is sold out. Does this mean that everyone whose order has not been dispatched yet has to wait for new stock to arrive, or does it just mean that there is no stock for new orders?
Can't wait for it to arrive!

I got mine today (UK). EBay methinks, will help offset the cost of the phone simply free.

I too had the smartwatch offer with clove. Got no dispatch email but despite that it turned up this morning! Actually really like it. It's simple and is not trying to be too clever. I'm using watchit which pushes all notifications to the watch seamlessly. Wasted £5 on the smartwatch augmentation thing. Didn't really get it. Watchit is much easier and free too! It looks fine on the wrist too. Even the wife thought it looked good! I was also surprised how many apps are available. Most are pretty useless but I think it's a good sign for the future.
In the few hours I've used it I would say it's actually been quite useful as a remote notification device. It also means I can keep my phone on silent which is nice as it annoys the wife. You just get a nice gentle vibration on your wrist which feels fine. Haven't missed anything yet. The only issue for me is not being able to do much when you get a notification. For example, you can see emails but can't delete them. In the end you always have to go to the phone. What I've realized is that I'm opening the phone much less now. Which is good.
Would just like to amend the comment about the app augmented smartwatch pro. It's actually very good and does a lot more than watchit. For example it allows me to control Google music. Watchit does not. My point should have been that I wanted the watch simply as a notification device. The augmented thing does that, I just believe watchit does it better. Just slightly annoying that I spent a fiver on an app to control Google music! Oh well.

You just get a nice gentle vibration on your wrist which feels fine. Haven't missed anything yet. The only issue for me is not being able to do much when you get a notification. For example, you can see emails but can't delete them. In the end you always have to go to the phone. What I've realized is that I'm opening the phone much less now. Which is good.
Would just like to amend the comment about the app augmented smartwatch pro. It's actually very good and does a lot more than watchit. For example it allows me to control Google music. Watchit does not. My point should have been that I wanted the watch simply as a notification device. The augmented thing does that, I just believe watchit does it better. Just slightly annoying that I spent a fiver on an app to control Google music! Oh well.

Thanks for the info, I guess I won't buy augmented smartwatch then. Hopefully my watch will arrive tomorrow or friday.

Preordered mine from Amazon UK on the 17th of September. The site says is been in stock since October 1st but it hasn't dispatched yet
Then again, I AM in Australia... ETA is the 5th but I really doubt that it can get here in one day

Haven't gotten mine yet. I read the questions and answers on their blog today that said no one will be getting an individual email that their watches have shipped. Once they're done with all orders from the Z Ultra and Z1 then one mass email will go out. You may get your watch before you get an email.
Bottom line: be patient. Le'sigh

Got my watch but, it's corrupted can't even access the home screen just the clock....

I got mine yesterday, haven't used it other than to check it powers on.

Received mine today. Shows it was dispatched on 9/27/13 via Royal Mail.
Took literally less than 2-3 minutes to set up and start using. It's a little big for a woman's wrist but I don't mind.

The woman who gets the mail here at work is at lunch so I can't confirm if it came USPS. I'm going to assume that it did because there is no 3rd party courier information on the packaging itself.
Updated to add: Confirmed this was delivered by USPS.

Has anyone who got their Z1 directly from EE received their watch yet?

yep got mine as well today usps
