This thread is for people who ordered from the play store and have recieved their orders but cancelled and did not get charged. Do we have any lucky buggers that have managed to net one free because the way google are handling things i wouldnt be suprised if a few hundred slip through their pathetic delivery tracking system.
I doubt that will happen.

I would not be surprised if those people get an invoice and return shipping label in the mail. And then have to choose return or pay. Let alone if it was cancelled and the purchase does not say cancelled in Play store then technically Google covered the terms of the sale and could charge the credit card on file since they could show delivery of said product. Plus in its term of sale it states the cancellation period.
This thread will just bait people to debate. Seems trollish.

Is that for UK only? Also, isn't it somewhat solicited since one had ordered it and attempted to cancel after the specified cancellation period?
This thread is going to cause arguments for sure. Not as bad as the thread about retail FRAUD though...

Agreed. I thought the same thing about the retail fraud one with the guy having a play store and Sam's club tab, inspecting them and just returning whichever one he doesn't want to Sam's club. I think it's actually a felony.
Shame.

Lol a free tablet is a free tablet ....like Google doesn't have more money then they will ever need . And not to mention I'm pretty sure Google is constantly stealing/viewing or information that's why u get ads similar to the things you talk about in your emails.

Correct, you are not a lawyer.
The "unsolicited goods" laws in some countries (USA for example, which is handled by the FTC) is explicitly written to cover receiving unordered products. It is not for "haha! you sent me something after I cancelled my order so I get to keep it for free!" type scenarios.
So, for example, if you signed up for a free product and they sent you something more with a bill/invoice. Or if you never ordered anything to begin with, but they sent you something and wanted you to pay for it. Or if you receive something (again, not ordered) and it was due to an honest shipping mistake*.
To the latter, you are still supposed to contact the merchant to let them know of the mistake, and give them an opportunity to correct it at zero cost to you (ie: paying for return shipping) within a reasonable amount of time. You can also make it clear that if they don't contact you about it within that time, you will dispose of the product in any manner you see fit.
While this part of it might be a stretch, it could possibly apply here. So if you did actually get an N7 by mistake after cancelling your order, and want to keep it with little risk, I would suggest sending a certified letter to Google with the content above. If they respond back saying to send it to them using a prepaid shipping method, you should do so. Otherwise, while it wouldn't be considered "fraud" since it was their mistake, it could be considered theft of goods, since you did in fact order the product, they still sent it to you due to an honest mistake, they later tried to get it corrected, and you refused.
Or, you could just stay quiet and hope they don't contact you about it - if you are so inclined.
But in the end, if they do contact you to return the merchandise, I would recommend doing so.
On the invoice I received with my order, it had the device's serial number. They knew the device's serial number too, when I rang up and started the RMA process. Google know where each device has been shipped to, so I doubt very much that they'll do nothing and let people keep free tablets. Also, as stated on the support pages, they can remotely disable devices.
I can't wait to fast forward a couple of months, and the "Google just charged my credit card for a tablet I didn't return " threads start.

First i got the nexus 4 so i could leave the over priced contracts of ATT and Verizon. I did that and I'll be saving $1000 a year.
It worked so well, i became a cable cutter and ditched Comcast for a savings of $1800 a year.
Then i was looking at myself shaving in the mirror one morning with one of those Gillette mach whatever fusion razors for 20 bucks for 4 of them, and thought, hey this is dumb. So i pulled out my grandfather's old straight razor and lovingly spent an hour honing and stropping it just right and said goodbye to buying another razor for the rest of my life.
It felt so exhilarating holding a lethal weapon against my own throat every morning that i began to look for other ways to find the same feeling.
I found it at the gas station while filling my car. I thought, why am i spending so much on gas for something that's no fun to drive? So i sold it and bought a motorcycle that does 0 to 60 in a little less than 3 seconds but gets 55 miles to the gallon.
Throwing your body down the road at 70 miles an hour gives you a different perspective on things. At least, if you're doing it right. I started living in the moment. I questioned the natural order of things.

I'd just like to point out that while the Nexus 4 has turned Pedxing into a renegade [email protected]$$, not all stories involving the Nexus 4 turn out good. In fact, any Nexus device can ruin lives and should only be handled trained professionals. Here's why:
When the Nexus 4 and Nexus 10 were released, there was a huge rush to get them. Anybody who was remotely interested in phones and tablets knew these devices would be a huge success. However, nobody remembered to tell this to Google, who only manufactured enough devices so that their employees (and families) could get them and keep their workplace Apple-free. Once this production run was complete, the production line was terminated. However, due to the complexities of language translation and foreign business practices, the word "terminate" was taken literally and the workers were executed and the factories set on fire, and the land was salted so that nothing would ever grow there again.
Now, picture this: Here I am, a humble science student, currently working on my doctorate so I can help bring positive change to this world. However, even though I am a technophile, I'm in a cruel relationship where my partner does not want me "wasting money" buying the "latest fad". Instead, she tortures me by talking about wanting babies and buying another kitten. All this does is drive me deeper into my research in order to escape. Somehow, possibly due to sun spots or an alignment of planets, or because she suspected the Mayans may well have been right, she suddenly grants me permission to purchase the new Nexus devices. I cannot believe this! What an incredible change of events! Ecstasy!
So, like millions of other people, I am furiously bashing the F5 key on my computer during the Nexus product launch in a desperate bid to see an "Add to cart" button appear, overloading Google's sales system (running on a Sinclair ZX81, because "hey it'd be cool man"). Nobody was able to purchase a new Nexus device, yet somehow all the stock disappeared (Google's employees and their families got access to the sales server running on the Commodore 64. 6510 > Z80, suckers!). In desperation, I'd been hitting the F5 key for two months, hoping some new stock would become available. Of course, this did not happened (nor ever will), but the carrot remained dangling on Google's website and I was still enticed to refresh the website.
I'd been living the life of a recluse, sitting in my lab repeatedly smashing the F5 key on my keyboard. I am afraid to leave, knowing that I will probably miss the 20 minute window of opportunity to buy a new device when I step away. So, I manufactured my own food in my lab, but I don't really know how to cook and the results were interesting. Some of my food staged a rebellion and escaped, destroying my air conditioning system in the process. The arm I use to click the F5 key (amongst other things) had grown large and muscular, and I think my testosterone levels had increased incredibly, as I had become more hairy and aggressive towards other people. In fact, my dominant arm had dwarfed my other limbs and consumed much of my blood flow, depriving my brain of sufficient blood to enable higher thought processes, so I had become a savage, unruly creature, driven by impulse and prone to whims of fancy.
Such was the case when I decided that it may be easier to find a Nexus 4 and Nexus 10 device already in circulation and liberate the devices from their physically weak possessors. Such slender, symmetrical fools! How dare they possess items of beauty and function! How can I, an educated person with chemically enhanced genetics and a superior physique, be deprived of such pleasures? So I positioned myself near where humans gather, in a place known as a "train station", and hid myself in a tunnel near a point of pedestrian access. I waited, while obtaining nutrients from the assorted vermin found within my damp, dank dwelling. I honed the power in my arm, my magnificent arm of destruction, a red fleshy monstrosity bulging with potent sweet love and misery, a piston of massacre and serenity, a complex dance of sinew twirling merrily amongst the chords of oblivion. Yes, I shall feast! I WILL NOT BE DEPRIVED! Don't look at me. DON'T LOOK INTO MY EYES!
One day, I heard the footsteps of the carriers of the Nexus outside of my realm, and I knew now was the time to take what was rightfully mine! Yes, victory! Sweet, blessed victory! I sprang from my lair of comfort and succor, shielding my eyes from the blinding light with the inferior, weak arm while thrashing away with the harbinger of death, showing my unbridled power in a threatening display and screaming as best my lungs could enable that the offerings of the Nexus should be placed at my feet. Yes, puny weak creatures, give me my bounty!
Then my eyes burnt, I gasped for air, and after some more flailing in rage, I fell to the ground and my body twitched from the electrical currents passing through me. Such is the uncaring way of the Nexus. It chose not to love me. I was unworthy. I was weak. I was trampled. I whimpered.
Modern medicine is a wonderful thing. Now I see with clarity. Yes, I was a fool to love the Nexus. (sweet, sweet, Nexus, you fooled us). I am held in binds, for my arm, my lovely arm, my arm that dispenses love, is a menace to society. Yes, I see this. (yes, we do see this, we see everything). People come to see me, to nod sagely, to make clucking noises at how far I fell. (the clucks! the clicks! they mock us!). The walls may be soft, but my resolution is strong. I was wrong to crave the Nexus. I became broken, but I can be fixed. Yes, fixed. All will be well.
(We shall fix everything. Everyone is broken, only we can fix them. You will see. We see everything.)
EvilStevious needs to lay off of the Adderall.
Love this...

Hi, I'm mostly active in the htc rezound forums but I just want some perspective from someone who knows about my situation.
Here's what happened.. I was traveling home from a town an hour out. My wife, infant son, and I were all in the car. I saw cars ahead pulled over and people outside theirs cars, so instinctively I attempt to slow down.. Big mistake.. The road was all black ice and I instantly began to spin sideways. I was only able to slightly correct the car and still ended up going off the side of the road at 70mph (going the speed limit) . We flipped about 2 3/4 times landing on the passenger side.
Everyone was ok, baby was still asleep
Anyways, I am only insured with liability.
My car was paid off, but now I'm stuck without a car, no way to get to and from anywhere. I don't know anyone in my area besides Co workers and I need a car.
Is there any thing I can do to squeeze some very needed money out of this situation? I will probably get about 300 for the totaled out car. I feel so wronged like I was jipped out of my car and almost lost my life and/or family
Anyone who has had something like this happen (icy roads) I need some advice please. There was nothing I could do, there was no salt on the road, multiple accidents occurred before they finally shut down the highway a few miles back.
Any feedback is appreciated

Just seeing if anyone else has been in this situation.. Not looking for insurance fraud or advice on suing the city. Just maybe if there's any other type of claim I can file... Like I said I just feel wronged because the roads should have been maintained.. The last time there was precipitation was about 5 hours before the accident.. It just seems like there should have been some type of warning or precautions or something :/

Well, my sister got hit by a Oakland city bus. She is ok now, it knocked her off her bike, bad cut on her elbow, and a dislocated shoulder. It was clear it was the bus drivers fault. Witnesses and everything. Despite all this the lawyer says it's still going to take at least a year for her to see any money, probably longer. The moral of the story, getting money from a city is no easy or short process.
"Every man is guilty of all the good they did not do"
Voltaire
I doubt you're going to get any kind of money since you only have liability and black ice probably falls under an act of nature or some such. I don't see how the city would be on the hook for anything.
I don't think the city is liable to pay anything, though maybe you can squeeze out some more money from the insurance company.
If you have a lawyer friend, have him read all the clauses, terms, conditions etc of the insurance agreement and see if there is any scope.
Insurance companies only pay the depreciated value of your car. You need to check up whether the depreciated value of your car is what they are paying you.
Having your insurance claim fully accepted is rare. Best of luck.
Sent from my pet- Megatron™
There is probably nothing you can do and no additional money you can get. Having liability only is a dangerous game imo, full coverage can save your butt.
Hind sight is 20/20. Considering you have a family with a very small child, you should have had planned better for this. Liability only is for those who know if their car is wrecked, it isn't worth fixing and have money available for another car if something happens.
I have always carried full coverage on paid off cars since I hit a deer when I was 17.
Best bet is to buy another car. If you have really bad credit, best chance is probably drive time
Sorry for the bad luck

The problem is that you have to destroy your back cover.
The average person reading this post seems oblivious the the wonders of 3d printing. I've posted a few times and it seems to go right over everyone's head. So I'm posting in the main forum.
I am willing to pay $10.00 to the person who creates a 3d model of a case for the N4, with room for the extra battery, that holds everything in place. I know I'm not the only one willing to do this. If we get enough people interested in chipping in, a 3d modeler could make a nice chunk of change.
I did a google search for "have something 3d printed" and I get a bunch of companies, all I need is someone to make the model.
Anyone interested?
$10 would not even be worth the material to print out a "custom" case you want let alone the time and resources involved.
I don't want or need someone to print it out. I am going to submit the file to the printing service and pay for that all on my own. As would anyone else who wants the case.
I am paying 10.00 for someone to create the model in autocad for example. Provide that file for download. So anyone can submit this file to the printing service, pay the printing service fee, and have the printed case mailed to them.
Ten dollars? To develop a product that might eventually change the future of this phone, I don't think so

I'm not planning on paying 10.00 to have it printed. I'm chipping in 10.00 to have the document that is sent to the printer created. And paying to have it printed on my own. He w ever that much would be.
Regardless. The battery will be here after the 13th. I'm going to confirm the op. Between my roommate and I, we are going to *try* to develop an easy way to do the hardware mods to the device so almost anyone can do it. I'm going to hire the 3d modeler, have a few cases printed up and sell um on eBay.
Or... At least have great battery life and a nice case, depending on the cost I may just have one printed.
One way or another, I'm going to take full advantage of technology available to me.

IMO that project is much better suited for phones with removable covers, as you have a preexisting mounting mechanism and there's no need to modify the actual phone. I can say however that a printable case fit the N4 woukd be pretty sweet.

I say throw this up on kickstarter, while I don't want this I'd chip in $5.
Sooo I came across this thread, and I'm an engineer, with access to a 3d printer and CAD software.
If a two piece hard case exists, I could base it on that, the 3d material isn't that strong when thin so it would have to be a two piece design.
This is certainly intriguing, though I must warn you, the "ink" our printer uses feels fairly cheap. I'm not sure what texture you're looking for, but I know other options exist, it would just be a matter of getting options from the shop who is actually printing.
Just want to note too, the ink is fairly expensive, plus there is hand cleaning necessary after the object is printed (driving up the cost).
I have a model N4 that I used to make a basic desk holder, I can send that to you to get a quote.
Let me know
EDIT: also, a case with a battery would need to be wired into the original, thus destroying your current back...unless a battery with qi like capacity could be placed next to the untouched back.

If it were me, I would copy the dimensions of the OEM bumper, use AutoCAD or Pro-E to make the 3D model, print and shove the rubber part from the bumper into the case. I'll take a look at my bumper when I get home and do a mock up. $10 for 10 minutes of work is worth it lol. The most time consuming parts would be getting exact measurements. I'll have my trusty caliper for that. The rounds would be a bit tricky though. Plus including some sort of tolerance for the mass produced 4's, though I suspect it should be fine if I stick with the same dimensions of the bumper.
Instead buy a travel charger !! Its too beautiful to be fk'd up

I really hate to be one of those people but i need to figure out if It's true or not, so i apologize if this is false and creates a scare. I was told that Google has stopped production of the chrome cast. Is this true has anyone else heard anything?
Again I apologize if this is false and worries some people

Have not heard a single thing about that. Quite the opposite really, on all the news networks, they're taking about the crazy demand and success of chromecast.

Let's see, launched on Wednesday, sold out everywhere, has rave reviews from every media outlet, seems to fit well into Google's media strategy...
That you're even giving this ridiculous rumor enough credibility to asks begs your own judgment.

no, they haven't stopped production.
they did, however, stop giving away free netflix. whomever told you they stopped production probably confused those two things.

Yep, they only stopped giving out Netflix codes cause they did not anticipate more than 200,000. So basically in less than 48 hours they sold 200,000 Chromecasts. If anything I'd say they are going to have to ramp up production since its sold out almost everywhere.
supply and demand are the issue, not the stopping of production. just give it time and you will find one for less than the insanity price they go for on ebay

I know I should've done research before posting here I really just didn't think about it this time I usually do so please no snide remarks I wasn't aware of when it launched or anything except what is is, I do appreciate the fast replies, but since this seems to be just a rumor if a mod could close and delete this that would be great
