Just got off the phone with ST. I tried to order a micro sim for my N4 to use on AT&T. Guess what, they are out and don't know when they will be back in stock!!!!!! My N4 shipped today. Guess it'll make a great door stop!!

Try Walmart.com - search for Straight Talk AT&T Micro Sim

[minnemike]

OK. Now I feel dumb. I ordered the Nexus 4 Tuesday, got it Thursday. I ordered a SIM from T-mobile Wednesday, and it won't get here until 2/6. In the meantime, what all can I do with this phone?

You can certainly still just hold it up to your ear in a crowded place and look important.

walmart.com has the straight talk micro sim for AT&T in stock. Also, check out their bundle with the $45 card ... saves you $5. I'm waiting for my SIM card - should be arriving today.

[Muleskinner392]

Yep, just ordered mine as well.

I ran into the same problem when I ordered the micro sim from T-mobile. The shipping company is USPS, not UPS. Also, add 92 before the tracking number. For some reason, T-mobile omitted that from the tracking number they gave us.

nice! that worked and its being delivered today by USPS

I'm afraid it's going to take a lot more than a Nexus 4 to make me look important.

I went to the USPS site and plugged in both the tracking number and tried adding 92 in front of it. Neither worked. If it is coming by USPS instead of UPS, though, that's a pretty big fail, T-Mobile.

If you are near a TMO store, they will give you a free sim card....at least the two I went to offered them.

I read elsewhere that the sim cards they give you in a TMO store can not be used with the $30/month option, since that is online-only.

Everything you can do on a Nexus 7 basically but you just have two bloatware, messaging and phone.

[thisfnguy]

Use it for drop tests.

There is no way I would wait 2 or 3 days for that SIM. I'd drive to a Tmo store and buy a SIM from them right now.

I hope you ordered a micro-Sim

I have this regular to micro to nano SIM cutter I got on eBay to solve this problem.

That's what I thought too.

That's what I thought too.

Actually. I was told by the T-Mobile rep that I got sim at today when I was at the mall to call them at the end of the cycle. I had her just activate it on the $50 plan right away. But according to her if you call and tell them you had it set up at walmart, and they put you on the wrong plan. She said it usually will work. She said that the $30 plan was a walmart and tmobile web only, they cant do it at the store. Anyway, I ordered a sim for no reason, at least it was only a buck and now I have a back up.

True, based on my eperience. I was told at the T Mobile store that they can give and activate SIM cards for all no contract monthly 4G plans other than the web-only $30 (100 minutes 5 GB) plan.

While I am waiting for my SIM card I've been using mine as a voip phone wiht Groove IP.

Yep, I'll give the VOIP a shot as well.

OK. Here is some of what I've done so far:

Unlocked the bootloader.
Set up all of my Google stuff that I already have on my Nexus 7.
Take some photos.
Listen to some tunes with Google Music.
Listen to some podcasts with BeyondPod.
Get root.

I think it's time to read the manual. For those of you who don't know, it's on Google Books. And I'm going to read it on my Nexus 7. I'm still going to do all of my reading on the tablet.

You win one free internet.

[AFM1204]

Thanks, that's what I always wanted!

I ordered the T-Mobile sim Wednesday and It's still not here.

In the meantime, I set up my Google Voice account and my old cell number already ported. So I have two cell phones with no cell service.

But I have a nice voice mailbox.

Can the manual only be accessed once the device is in your google account? I'm still waiting for delivery, wanted to look at the manual but can only find the nexus 7 manual (which I have).

[edit]: Found the direct link here and was able to add it...strange it would not come up in search at all...

The Official Nexus 4 Guidebook is here!

I called T-mobile they stated you have to add "92" in front of the tracking number they sent you. Worked fine tracking at UPS after that.
