No official word. It's believed to be available on Verizon sometime in November.

damn

I asked for assistance about it to my carrier since Moto X got released a pair of weeks ago here in Mexico at Telcel. They told me that whenever i go to buy it, and i want to personalize it; they would buy it and give me the PIN for the order directly to MotoMaker.
I don't trust them that much because it seems that they don't know that much about it.
They didn't have heard about MotoMaker until i told them... So let's hope they do what they promised. I'm not that worried because i'm exactly two months away from buying it.

Nexus 4 at T-Mobile b&m

Just letting everyone know that I was able to pick up a Nexus 4 at a t- mobile retail store. At first they told me they were in stock but couldn't be sold yet. About 10 minutes later this story changed and they said they could sell it to me. Pricing is different than buying directly from Google but it is available.
This was in Raleigh North Carolina.

My local T-Mobile also has a few Nexus 4's in stock. I'm with AT&T though so I don't know if it has any T-Mobile bloatware on it or not.
Was the pricing full retail for TMO or Google?
$549 for the 16 GB Nexus 4 at my local T-Mobile.
Full retail unless you go with a "classic contract". But the classic contracts are inflated and cost more in the long run.
I have not found any bloatware.

I purchased one at the College Station, TX TMo store. It has zero bloatware. Also, it rooted just fine and is already running cm10.1. this is a pretty incredible phone.

Are you with T-Mobile or AT&T?
There is no bloatware on the T-Mobile nexus 4. I have one and there is no T-Mobile crap on it.

Fore that much money, you could have bought a bnib nexus 4 on amazon and a charging stand or 3. Why would you pay that much?

Well I didn't buy it. Thats the price they told me when I called a couple hours ago.
$500 plus tax at 10% is about $550. Seems a little high... Maybe that's with activation?

If you're in Lansing, MI there are a few Nexus 4s in stock at the T-mobile at Frandor Plaza. Hit up Kerry, he'll hook you up. :good:
I just picked mine up from T-Mobile. New promotion at work demanded the capabilities of a smartphone for email. Works paying for it so might as well get the phone I want and not wait
I was at CES and knew from the rep there it would be in stores by the 16th. Thanks BTW from the dude with the white helmet. Managed to hold off on getting a smartphone since they came out. Yay me for being poor till now.
I tried the Droid DNA and hated Sense. This thing is beast.

Yeah they have it at a couple of stores here in San Antonio for $218 with a 2 year upgrade or new line/contract.
I was just going to buy it outright. But I decided to let my companies monthly cell expense pay for the phone via contract.

No bloatware. It is the same n4 that you can get from the play store.

I got mine for free through HTC's Champions program. 250 deposit that they refund part of when you send your qualifying device back to htc. I'm lucky enough to have a Note II that is offering a full deposit refund :good: The downside of this program is I have to wait 2 weeks for them to ship it out to my store Not sure if the program applies to sprint corporate though I'm a 3rd party store.

It would appear this is the case, on the site they specifically sate "does not apply to corporate" and only list Preferred/Platinum dealers on the approved dealer list.
So, can employees buy it? Not some HTC program. I mean is it available for employees of Sprint to purchase from our company on our computer at work.
I am only asking because I live on the far side of town from the employee store. I would hate to make the trip for no reason.

No not yet. They put it up through there site to get people to trade in there galaxy s3 straight up (htc rep said it was aimed at the s3)
It might be a little while inventory is strained and still no black available. But on a positive note they have been quicker with employee availability minus the iPhone

Its only through there site you pay them 250 for the phone they send it, you send yours in and they cut you a check for it
Update on availability I'm the advocate at my store and my phone had to be returned to inventory cause of constraints so.... Expect even longer of a wait

My understanding is (got this confirmed by corporate when trying to get iPhone 5) that even if you buy the handset full price even if directly from manufacturer, you cannot activate it on an employee account or you risk getting on corrective action up to termination. This was huge deal when the EVO 4G came out. A manager in my district almost got fired for this...
Wait until sprint sprint sends communication to employees that you can buy it for swac accounts. Just my .02 cents

I had no problem activating mine on a sero plan through sprint's online chat. Idk how sprint corporate works but I dont see why it would be an issue.
I don't think that is true. I have bought numerous devices and activated them before they were available to employees.
BTW, any word on if this is available yet?

Cant you get an unlock code off eBay? Perhaps cellunlocker will offer an unlocking service. I remember I unlocked my AT&T Optimus G Pro with them when I got it in the UK for around $8/£5.

Friend of mine is already trying with CellUnlocker. Will report back if it works or not. He already tried UnlockUnit but they refunded after trying for a week. Looks like Att is making it even harder this time due to motomaker exclusivity.

We are in the US on Att, so whatever works in Canada for the Rogers units probably won't work for us. If you have used Fusionunlock.com, can you show a screenshot if it says worthing about unlocking the Att version? Their website requires a username and password, and I don't want to sign up just to see the details.
I know a unlock services would work unlocking the phone. My question is if the Att moto x would at least pick H+ after unlocking. If it has the tmo bands. That's the question. The only way to know is by popping in a tmo sim card.

Depends on the store. Some managers might be strong arming you and think you don't know any better, but you can buy the motomaker version at full retail.

Nexus 6 on contract VZ?

I've anxiously awaiting the nexus 6 on verizon. I'm a little worried, as I have contacted Verizon twice and they have no record of them opening up the pre orders tomorrow. Both reps checked everything they have and don't show it at all. Is it going to be available on contract for verizon? Will it be available for pre order?

Well they got the Turbo announcement out of the way, nothing holding them back now. Im going to just get it off the play store tomorrow though, Im not going to wait for them!
im gonna order off the play store tomorrow too, hopefully Verizon does not screw us and try to fight there activation

For my company I am the VZW authorizer for our account and business\enterprise support have not been able to tell me if can pre-order until last night. My rep emailed me saying that Friday I can pre-order...
There are so many answer out there who knows... I sent my new unopened box of the Samsung Note 4 back to their return center in TX yesterday so I am hoping that they have it all processed and in the system so I can get that line to show the upgrade again for the re-order...otherwise I have to wait next week.
Never had a Nexus look forward to it really enjoyed the Note line but if they will not get anymore root (maybe late) no roms no sell for me...at least my Note 3 has SS installed for the custom rom.
will verizon be able to sell the 64gb version?
I decided to just buy it from Motorola using their credit. Now the question is when will Motorola sell it on their site? !?!
