    Anyone order a N4 in from the US? How much was the customs if it got caught? Or does anyone know how much it'd be?

    Ordered mine yesterday. Just in time it seems but won't ship till mid January. Still better later than never.




    Wouldn't believe what it says. Ordered one 28th Novemeber, came to the 10th and was still listed as pending. Re-ordered on the 10th and it shipped on the 12th. Logged in and cancelled my order from the 28th. Delivered yesterday to mail forwarding service in the US. Just waiting for it to be delivered here now.

    Looks like Google are updating info on the play accounts on pending orders. My bank is also showing a new charge for the phone and pending. Fingers crossed!

    (16 gig N4 order with 1-2 weeks showing when initially ordered)

    When did you order yours?

    Mine said 6-7 weeks even when I ordered yesterday.

    That xda thread is very annoying. I'm a fan of xda but I can't look at that uk shipping thread anymore.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 923 ✭✭✭markad1


    ok I have a problem I cant stop checking the xda thread :o

    Quick question, I thought my Meteor contract was up this month but it's not up until February now :( was going to switch over to 3's pay as you go, question is regarding getting a micro sim off Meteor easy enough as just walking into their store and picking one up or do I have to jump through a bunch of hoops?

    Should hopefully have my Nexus 4 on Wednesday :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,383 ✭✭✭S.M.B.


    Hmmmm.

    Mine should be shipped before the end of the week then if that statement is true. Now I have to worry about the fact that I finish up work on Friday so if it gets delivered any time after that god knows where it'll end up.

    Hmm ok doesn't look like I'll be lucky and getting this before Xmas. Ah well... only 7 weeks to wait. Hopefully when the next Nexus launches we'll have a Play Store in Ireland at least!

    Anyone sick of trawling through XDA, keep an eye on this https://sites.google.com/site/nexus4cr/what-we-suspect

    The guy running the site is aggregating shipping updates from various sources.

    Dec 5 You placed an order with Google Commerce Ltd on Dec 5. Google Wallet sent a copy of this receipt to XXXXXXXX@XXXX.com
    Estimated Ship: 5-6 weeks
    Dec 7 Google Commerce Ltd received your order.

    Its still showing as pre-ordered :-(

    Just a quick question to those who have ordered.
    Is everyone doing it through parcel motel or getting friend/family member to get them while abroad?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 879 ✭✭✭pedatron


    Jesus what a disaster of a product launch. LG may forget about making the next nexus if this is what supplies will be like!

    keep us posted darren :)
    did you get any shipping email or did your status change on wallet?

    Have my Nexus 4 now and I'm very happy with it so far.

    Picked it up on Saturday after it was delivered to parcel motel in Lucan on Thursday...

    I got an email to say our was shipped and the status changed on wallet around the same time. Weirdly the tracking number I got was for delivery to Dublin, even though the delivery addresses on my account were all up north for PM. There was no tracking past that.

    Anyway, have the phone now ;-)

    I just asked for one in the O2 shop, there was no charge for the micro SIM. Just activated it on their website. You can use the micro SIM in existing full SIM phones, just don't remove all the bits.

    I'm sure meteor should be similar, SIMs often needed replacing.

    Cheers for the heads up, as for the part about not removing all the bits what's that???

    The way that the SIM comes, from O2 at least, is as part of a credit-card, which can break out a regular mini-SIM, and from that you can break it further in to a micro-SIM, as per the old Apple link here:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4192

    but what worked for me was to not break out the micro-SIM, but use the mini-SIM in my existing phone (HTC Desire) until I got the LG Nexus 4...


    A nano-SIM is smaller again, so make sure you don't get that one...

    You shipping via N Ireland? I'm just trying to see whether they are bunching the N Ireland orders as they use a different courier in the North (UTI) compared to TNT in GB.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,231 ✭✭✭stereo_steve


    Yep it's going to Parcel Motel with UTI


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 442 ✭✭Incompetent


    Yep it's going to Parcel Motel with UTI

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,329 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    Google shipped my last order with UTI, I got the shipped email around 6 pm on Monday and had the parcel in parcel motel on Wednesday morn.
