Well I was stupid and pre-ordered from Wal-Mart.com. My order status stated it would arrive today but that it hadn't shipped yet. I called their customer service and they said they had to cancel my order because my item has been discontinued from the distributor. Called gamestop and they said that not only are they out but they were told today they weren't getting anymore...anyone else heard this?

Definitely NOT discontinued. Supply issues certainly, but not discontinued.

Google were shocked by demand, they though it would be like the iPod touch where the cheapest model sold the most- they got the opposite.
Sounds like they're tired of answering questions at Gamestop.

Discontinued? That kinda made me laugh. I wouldn't believe a word from anyone working at Walmart. Products like these just don't get discontinued in a month.

I heard Asus is refusing to make anymore until those that have suggested it would have been better to have Samsung or Motorola make them instead, apologize..
In other news, it could be a national holiday in China, like it was during the long wait for the Notion Ink Adam, where employees agreed to continue working during New Years celebrations instead of going on their yearly vacation to see their families. Perhaps this time they see no benefit and refuse to skip theirs..
Second wave 8/30 or still waiting on the SD (street date) of 8/05?
NOTE: I called my Gamestop, they didn't have any, she offered to look in the computer to see which stores nearby had them in stock. Went to one and exchanged mine on the spot.
My Gamestop called me today to tell me my replacement came in.
I also ordered from Wallmart and checked on my order yesterday they said that it was ready to ship today. Than today I get a email and was told that they could not ship it yet. This was after they told me that they had them!

Well I don't need to apologise as I said in the other thread stores could have had a faulty early batch but didn't say I agree with changing manufacturers
Anyway, others just have to wait and hope they come out okay

Yeah, I think at the price point more people went straight for the 16GB. I know I did, I didn't even consider the 8GB.
Honestly though with either model and an OTG cable and a little root work, storage isn't really a limiting factor at all. People who really want an N7 and can find a 8GB now should scoop one up.

They make an 8GB one?
LOL :silly:
It's not discontinued as mentioned, probably just temporarily out of stock. In Sweden we seem to only get the 16GB version sometime during September. I would have been fine with the 8GB but it doesn't really matter to me either in price or storage.
They might have stopped to address the screen and creaking issues. That's just a guess though.

I stopped by a GS the other day to see if they had any accessories for the n7, they didn't, but when i Asked them if they had any n7's the employee told me you had to have preordered one to get one and they wouldn't be getting more.
Doesn't mean Google isn't making more' just means GameStop won't be selling them.

Google probly pissed at retail stores for selling them before street date ..
Or maybe they don't want to be in retail and decided to run a Play Store sweat shop with backed up orders that continue to build up

Even if they halted distribution, there's no way it's being discontinued. I really doubt that any Walmart rep has his or her finger on the pulse, and the Gamestop guy only said that they were expecting shipments but now they're not.
It is possible that Google wants to put a hold on things until they reign in the build quality.

Yeh, but that was a total flop and only started selling in the fire sales after it had been discontinued. This on the other hand was a massive success and sold-out everywhere,
Soon to be former HTC Flyer owner here. I just ordered my 16GB Nexus 7 today. I had just paid $200 for my Flyer in February, and to be honest it was a great tablet hardware wise but ruined by lackluster support by HTC. It hit EOL status way too soon, and got cut off from support at honeycomb. I spent the last month debating whether or not to keep it or cut my losses and get a Nexus 7 and Finally Monday I decided I'm not happy with the Flyer, it didn't live up to my expectations, so on Ebay it went. Haven't sold it yet, but decided to go ahead and charge the Nexus 7 before they sell out again.
Very excited and looking forward to receiving it! BTW how long does it take for google to process and ship the order?
i ordered my nexus late afternoon on monday, and it is suppose to arrive tomorrow according to the trackingt number from UPS. So i am gonna guess 3-4 days.

2 day shipping means that the actual shipping takes 2 days - they can still take a long time to process it.

Seriously??????????
How on earth has Google lied about 2 day shipping?
I assume that you have ordered online before and are aware that means delivery is 2 days from when it is shipped and not 2 days from when you click the order button...
If you have never ordered anything online before then please excuse my sarcasm....

?? There is a difference between when you Order it and when they ship it. When they ship it, it is 2 day business delivery. It may however take more than 2 days before the ship the unit from your order.
I think they did great. When I ordered it July 19th, the order page said ETA 3-4 WEEKS.... They shipped it 6 days later, and it arrived within 2 business days of the shipping date.
The only people who seem to have had issues with shipping had...
o Problems with Customs, not much Google can do about that
o Shipping issues with UPS, again, it is out of their hands once they hand it off.
From what I've seen, Google has refunded shipping costs when this happened which is just about all they can do.
They are not "lieing" .... and are not lying either.
Woa....
Sorry didn't mean to get everyone riled up. Just don't quite understand what 2 day shipping means from Google. I've been ordering stuff online for over 10 years. Just sayin 2 day shipping from say newegg would mean ordering yesterday would get me my stuff by Friday.
But from what I've seen it sounds like the 2 day shipping is actually 3 to 5 days so no that doesn't make much sense.
Sounds like they just aren't providing all the details like processing time etc. Sorry I just hate waiting on shipping! I have planned on buying it from a store until I read about the warranty.
Sent from my De-Sensed HTC Vivid using Tapatalk 2
that's because they ship same day. 2day shipping only applies to the time it spends in transit by a carrier. Processing and handling time is a different story. if you order say, a custom computer from dell, you can get 3-5 days shipping but it takes them a week to build it. so the system will arrive to its destination a week + 3-5 days.
tldr: shipping time =/= ETA. Handling & processing is not calculated in shipping time.
EDIT: you also have to consider the terms and conditions of the shipping service. most of them are business days only and some are based purely on time spent in transit regardless of it being a business day or not.

When it's here I won't care. Sorry didn't want to start off my first official post with the community on a bad note. Trust me I know Google is a Web product company not a physical product company so things might take longer and shipping is going to cost more than say amazon who ships out millions of products every day. And the petition for the. $14 shipping charge is just lunacy! I went through the play store because the warranty service is better and you get a $25 Google play credit. I'm sure the wait and the shipping charges will be worth it over buying it directly from a retailer.
Google is my favorite company, and this will be my 4th android device, love the os. Sorry again if I offended

With the flyer was it not getting updates that you weren't happy about, or problems that didn't get fixed before end of life, or just general performance? Was your flyer rooted?
I'm just curious, I haven't had one yet and wont buy one that old but would love to get a nice sense 4 quad core tablet from HTC to go along with my nexus 7
You will LOVE the Nexus 7 I'm sure. It's an amazing device.

Yeah lack of support. I wanted a nice tablet and didn't want to pay a mint. I was actually looking at a Anol novo 7 Chinese tablet with ics on it but I found this flyer refurbished for 200 and figured with Htc I'd get better support. Unfortunately the updated to honeycomb which made it a bit laggy, and web browsing sucked on it. Even Google hates honeycomb as you can't get chrome for it. It's like an ics beta, and in may htc decided all their tablets would stay on honeycomb. Hardware and build quality wise it was awesome but I was mulling over the nexus ever since I got it. We got a good ics rom in the works, borrowing drivers from the one v and desire HD but it has ways to go and overall I finally decided not happy with the flyer, and I really want a nexus, so I went with my heart!
And the 2 day shipping is no lie, getting it tommorrow! Very excited. Im loosing some features like mhl: never used it, rear camera: pretty useless just a toy on a tablet and the flyers camera was pretty grainy anyway, sd slot in which I found just didn't need one. I eventually put one in but only for cwm purposes, selling it with the flyer as a deal sweetner. And vibrate too, but I eventually turned it off on the flyer as it just wasn't needed, it just drained the battery more. So that stuff the nexus is missing is not important to me
And who wouldn't want a chance to play with jelly bean now instead of hoping your phone might get it after key lime pie comes out? Very excited!

I figured many users may want to express what they feel about the new Nexus 4.
Well, in my opinion - It surely is a beast - I don't like the look of it though - The back looks stunning but the front is kind of weird.
THE BEST PART - The price is INSANE! 349 for 16GB GSM - Getting a 2G, Quad Core BEAST is INSANE!
Sorry for caps but it's just amazing! I'm trying to sell out my Nexus to get the N4.
The thing I don't like - It's not SuperAmoled - But it's not Pentile either.
Android 4.2 features are amazing, it looks smooth! I love that they finally included quick settings and the sphere camera thing is epic.
Let's get this thread going
the phone is very cheap for the hardware, but i think if it won´t offer a better batterylife i can wait. the nexus itself is awesome and very fast, there´s no need for me atm for more power xD
i hate the fact that google is gonna take the way of apple, getting money (50€/$) for 8gb extra internal storage... and the 8gb version makes not much sense. if u own such a device, you´d like to play games, that take benefits from the hardware and such games are 1gb+. all in all i can wait for the moment. in 2months i can get a new phone, because my contract is gonna expire
i´d always prefer a nexus, but hd display, with only 16gb storage sucks if u want to watch hd videos :/ so i might take an s3 or nexus tablet for that and stick to the nexus as mainphone, we´ll see.
I allready found some1 that want to buy my GNex but i wait until the release... I can't waiiiiiiiiiittttttttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >_< damn 350$ 16bg???? so so so cheap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i paid 400$ for my GNex gsm 16Gb... but i really love my GNex (is the only phone that remeaind in my pocket for 8-9 months ) i usually sell my phone every 2-3 months

I got mine on 10/5, so about 3 weeks ago. Does anyone know anyway to convince Google to take it as a return? I see they have 15 days only on their website, which is honestly a joke... Except for big ticket items (cars, homes, etc.) the standard should really be 30 days and I'd even say up to 90. Anyway, any guidance is helpful, if there isn't any, no big deal.

How the hell Google is taking way of apple when Google is selling their flagship phone for $300-$350? Apple charges $700 for the unlocked iPhone 5. At this price I don't think there is any room to complain.

I am seriously considering getting one of these babies at launch. The specs look fantastic and I have grown to love stock android since getting my Nexus 7. I'm hoping I can set my 6 month old One X about £270-280 so that it will cover this purchase. The only downgrade will be the storage space but considering I only use about 4gb of the available space on my One X it won't be an issue.
I understand for some 16gb won't be enough. But if you look at what Google has done with the Nexus 7 I wouldn't be surprised to see a 32gb model released a few months down the line.
I'd like to see a screen comparison between the One X and the Nexus 4. I LOVE the screen on my One X and if the Nexus 4 screen isn't at a similar level it could make me decide to stick with what I have.

Undoubtedly! The Nexus 4 is SO cheap! I can literally sell my Galaxy Nexus right now for the same price of the Nexus 4.
At this point it may be difficult to sell the GNex at New pricing, unless you literally ordered it before it was removed from Play or you use convincing-enough wording when listing it on Amazon.

I'm going to buy direct from Google and switch to GiffGaff. It runs on o2's network so the signal will be the same. They have a variety of very low priced offers. Check it out: http://giffgaff.com/
I've cancelled my contract with Vodafone. Contracts are just too expensive in the long run. This phone will be around £25-30 for 2 years. That makes a total price of £600-720. Buying direct and using GiffGaffs £10 a month offer after two years it is £520
For anyone who is thinking about buying the Nexus 4, but is worried about all the threads you've seen citing various problems with the screen, etc.
Perfect Nexus 4's DO exist. I bought mine off of the play store about 2 weeks ago, and everything was great except one thing - there was a screen defect that took up about 1/4" of the right side of the display.
I contacted Google who made the exchange process painless.. and I received my new Nexus 4 yesterday. It is, without a doubt, 100% absolutely perfect.
No hissing from the speaker, a brilliant screen, excellent blue tooth/wifi connectivity, fast as hell, great reception/call quality, just perfect.
I didn't have any of those problems with my other Nexus 4, other than that minor screen defect. Just wanted to let everyone know they are getting much better with their QA on these, GO GET ONE NOW!
Coming from a Galaxy S3, I can honestly say the Nexus 4 is the best phone I have ever had. Hands down I would sell my S3 and buy this phone all over again. Hell I might just buy another one, at this price point it's almost silly not to.
Feel free to chime in if you have a perfect Nexus 4

Yeah I'll probably give it to my wife and sell her GS2
Received my Nexus 4 on 04/04/2013 and it is flawless as far as I can tell. None of the problems posted in threads on this site are present as of yet (knock on wood). I've had really good luck with online orders of electronics though. I know a lot of people that don't like ordering electronics on the Internet because they always RMA. Anyway, just thought I'd post for statistics.
Less on-topic than my previous paragraph, I love my Nexus 4. By far best phone I've ever had, hardware- and software-wise.
Mine's not flawless but the 'defects' are so small that they're not noticeable. My volume rocker squeaks a little when stroked from top to bottom. I know it sounds weird but that's the only way I can make the noise. It's very minute and you have to be listening for it specifically to hear it unless the room's silent. Five of my friends also have N4s and none of them have complained about them at all.
Mines perfect. Rev 11.

I got mine back in Feb and it is perfect, I even dropped it few times(not intentional
) and no cracks or scratches
Got mine 2 months ago, perfect
Still have the original screen protectors on the front and back (along with a case)
I like things new
Received mine at the beginning of February. Ordered from the German Play Store. Hardware revision 11.
No visible defects. No issues at all regarding call quality, screen quality, connectivity.
Completely satisfied.
How long did it take from when you filed the warranty claim until you got the replacement device?

How long did it take from when you filed the warranty claim until you got the replacement device?

I didn't have to "warranty" exchange it because I will still within my initial purchase period (I think it's 15 days)
A warranty exchange is different because they can (and usually do) provide a refurbished device instead of a brand new one.
They offered me a refund, but instead I opted for an "advanced replacement". That means they send me the brand new phone but place a hold on my account for the amount of the phone ($359, they don't charge the shipping or tax) until I send the new phone back.
I received my replacement in 3 days and I am sending my original phone back today.

wowowowow. This is unbelievable. Prep to fight the iPhone which will also be $199 I assume. How can anyone pass this up? I mean the only disadvantage is it's almost a year old and no LTE but for this price. WOW.
Yep. Just saw this. 199 and 249 for 8 and 16 GB. Brilliant price for the phone!

I don't think LTE works on AT&T right? Only t-mobile. If it does damn I have to figure that out since I have an LTE sim card already inside it.

AFAIK it only works with T-Mobile and Canadian carriers.
Getting ready for the next nexus phone!!!
I'm one device away from making my Nexus complete. Hope I can do it this time.
Hoping it is for the new Nexus. Kinda killed my resale value though.
Omg i can't believe it. One of the most competitive smartphones on the market for $200...
N4, PA+Franco
Why do this when most people don't even know what a nexus is at least advertise it so apple doesnt get all the shine next month

I'm really tempted by this deal. I mean, it's the same price I got the original 32GB Nexus 7 for, and the phone is great overall. But, I kind of want to wait for the Nexus 5 just because it may offer better specs. It's just so hard to pass this deal up because it's being sold at such an amazing price.
Am I the only one in this predicament?

Are you happy with your current phone? If so, wait for the Nexus 4 (2013).
(Side note: Why does everyone insist on calling the next Nexus phone the Nexus 5? The number refers to the screen size, not the iteration; observe "Nexus 7 (2013)" instead of "Nexus 8", and with Google having stuck to the same phone screen size for 2 generations straight and then reaffirmed their affinity for this screen size with the Moto X, I'm pretty sure that the next Nexus won't be 5", and it won't be called the Nexus 5.)
Even if you decide at that point that you'd still want a N4 instead of a N4-2013, the market at that point will be flooded by people selling their N4s as they upgrade to N4-2013s.

Ooo please don't go there, we're all sick of those naming discussions that lead to nowhere, every f-ing thread is spammed with that stupid debate.

I just wish other OEMs would follow suit with such low off contract prices.
Looking at you Moto X.
I'm actually really sad about this. I was in the works for trading my phone for a note 2 to try the screen size. The other party just gave me the finger I hope this means a new nexus will debut soon I've had this phone the longest of all my phones 9 month and now I'm starting to get that new smartphone itch.
