Dont understand why it isnt available in the UK, when UK customers who bought the nexus 7 got £15 play store credit, just like a gift card. Surely this means it can work?

Think of the US as a test grounds for this. It will surely go worldwide soon.

Seeing as how google is based in California..It pretty means we get first dibs..sorry guys, gift cards, big whoop.

So you an get Dropbox from the play store so what?
If you mean getting the same amount of gb as galaxy s 3 then I hope not because otherwise it will discourage this great thing of Dropbox or other cloud provider in doing such sweet deals

Discourage? Sweet deal?
they are getting paid by Samsung you know that right? -_-
also it has been done with Sense 4 ROMs on HTC Sensation and that didn't DISCOURAGE them to provide that same offer to SGSIII users
It's business there's no such thing as discourage in business its sweet deal to THEM as Samsung is buying HUGE amount of space from them!

The people that hacked the HTC drop box apk had the 'extra' space removed. Furthermore the guy who did the actual hack was 'asked' by Drop box to refrain from hacking their app.

try and read more what?! did i say he kept it?! he said that a move like that might make dropbox stop supporting these kind of NICE services so i told him it happened already and they kept doing it as they are getting PAID for it, relax dude have a beer or something
Unless it is indefinite I would keep my storage down to the "free" level. The problem is once they hook you into all that storage and it becomes necessary and the only option they then can start billing. Likely something people would not have done themselves.
As for me. I'd prefer a 32MB phone with a 64MB card.....I am my own DropBox.
I do have the free account to upload files I want to later use on my phone or in my business to transfer shared files when necessary . But I don't use it for Mass Storage.

Nice to see someone from the wonderful island nation of Barbados here!! I live in St. James near Holetown a month or two out of the year on average. Haven't been down in a while though (getting homesick something awful!) .
What provider are you using, and how are the data speeds? I usually go with a pay-as-you-go SIM from Digicell (good for island hopping), but might go C&W if there are better speeds/data buckets/tariffs.

If you buy it now, it won't have Jelly Bean - but it will get it in mid-July when Jelly Bean is released on this, the Nexus 7 and I think something else (I forget). So said those at Google I/O at least...

Thanks for the reply. I do understand the difference between gsm vs cdma. I have the LTE nexus currently. My question had to do with not being able to see the nexus for sale on my market (along with accessories). I also can't find the nexus 7 on the play store. Any ideas other than clearing data?

[Q] Surely it hasn't sold out already? (where can I get one?)

No way has Google sold out in under bloody 30 minutes!!!
I am so angry right now. I had the damn thing in the frickin' checkout for Christ's sake! And then it just disappeared... now it's telling me it's 'coming soon' WTF?!!!
What's going on? Surely Google are not that blind that they would only stock tiny limited amount?
Had mine in checkout and now coming soon, ****ing well pissed off, as if Google didnt see this coming, well angry

Be on a lookout for new devices coming today or the nearest days I say. I accidently ordered 3 Nexus 10 tablets because of spamming buy. Just one seemed to go through, but in the end I had 3 pending. Surely they will be made available again soon once I cancel them.

Google Wallet and Google Play Store were crashing down.
So they closed ordering for a while.
It's not sold out yet.
Though it seems they weren't ready for all the orders, so there might not be that many units left...

Indeed. But I have a feeling USA will suffer the same fate
seems alot of people are having bad luck and some lucky bastards orders went through here
Between 10 am and 1pm I was constantly hitting the refresh button and on around 8 occasions I was greeted with the add to cart button, on one occasion I even made it to select quantity, the max being one handset, the rest of the times I got the stupid oops something went wrong screen
I have a sneaky feeling that something might give around 5pm UK time and not all handsets are in fact sold, fingers crossed

Hopefully the North American launch will be limited to one per customer to help avoid this on our side of the pond.
Sorry for your fortune, gents - hopefully you guys get them back in stock pronto!

How to order Nexus 4 ?
Hello everyone. I want to buy this new android smartphone (Nexus 4), but Google Play isn't available in my country. How can i buy it at the astonishing price of 350 EUR (16 gb version) ? I'll pay the shipping..that's not a problem. Where I live (in Romania), the phone will probably appear in stores in December at the price of ~~599 EUR. A little help from you, guys...
Thank you.:good:
If you must have it now then same as me eBay and prepare to pay more for it, maybe lots more!!!!

I don't need it right now. If i could get it before Christmas at a good price, i will be quite amazed. I really hope i'll manage to find a way....
I'd keep checking throughout the day. It's possible there will be a lot of orders that don't process and some stock may become available again. Some people have already noted they've seen the COMING soon switch to available and then back again (I haven't).
Well ive just taken the plunge and paid £339 for an 8GB on eBay.

I think i'll stick with the Samsung S3 if eBay is the solution. It cost "380£" in several reliable stores in my town.
Although I prefered the N4...

I thought that this game was over with Evo 3D.
Thanks for the heads up!
confirmed it is running on ATT.
It does not seem to be on VZW model.
2 people have confirmed it is not installed on the VS980
It can be removed, right?
I checked my Verizon G2 with three different Carrier IQ detectors and none of the three found it.
I'm surprised that AT&T would revive this PR nightmare... hope it blows up in their face.

Does the T-Mobile version support micro-SD? Says they support up to 32gb!?
Sigh. I thought we were passed this. I'm having a hard time caring though this time around. Not sure why.
If I were to guess, LG doesn't have the market share muscle to say no and AT&T insisted on installing it.

ATT comes standard 32gb, probably on T-Mobile too. No SD support on USA phone models from what i've read. Maybe T-Mobile offers a 16gb and 32gb model for some reason? Thought it ONLY came in 32gb?
Just remove these two files: found in /system/lib libiq_client.so and libiq_service.so
You need to be rooted one you remove these you can confirm whether the service is dining by downloading an iq checker in the play store. Remember it's the carriers not lg that included this.
Upon further testing phone FCS during a call if u remove these files...so will have to figure out whatelse needs to be done.
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk 4
On T-Mobile, at least for the One and S4, it asks whether you want to opt-in for Carrier IQ. I really don't see this as a huge deal but I mean I'm not against removing it either though.

The gnex was a different model with LTE on Verizon. This phone is the same model on all US carriers. Users have already confirmed you can unlock just like any other Nexus on reddit (at least that's the story I read ).
its the same nexus, no matter where you buy it, no matter who your provider is.
Not happy about the 32gb, but can maybe make clouds work for me. Don't want to wait for mail, so I'll be in line.
