    UK order 16gb Nexus 4 Thursday 6th of December

    The headphone jack on my Desire died a few weeks ago and I kept running out of space so constantly had to delete apps. I love my N4 but it hasn't left the house yet because my neighbourhood is currently a giant sheet of ice. I'm waiting until a) my case arrives and b) I can move around without...

    My previous phone was the HTC Desire as well. I agree, it is a major upgrade.

    UK order 16gb Nexus 4 Thursday 6th of December

    I was a bit miffed about it not being delivered Saturday because re-delivery was going to get awkward. However I got really lucky, just as I was heading off to work TNT arrived. I don't mind the waiting so much as the not knowing. Hope other people get theirs soon.

    UK order 16gb Nexus 4 Thursday 6th of December

    I think our posts crossed - see above... I called TNT and "Shipment loaded to vehicle... Out for delivery between the hours of 09:00 - 18:00" apparently refers to Monday.

    UK order 16gb Nexus 4 Thursday 6th of December

    After seeing this I called TNT and found the same. Unfortunately I'll be at work on Monday. I really wish Google would communicate things like when the package is going to be delivered. Quite often I can arrange to work from home but not at this short notice.

    UK order 16gb Nexus 4 Thursday 6th of December

    Same here. I live in the absolute centre of Birmingham so I don't think the snow should affect the delivery. I'm surprised they are doing a Saturday delivery but I'll post if/when it arrives.

    How to get the 4.2 OTA update NOW!! Your welcome! ;)

    This also worked for me. As others report, two tries seems to do it. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

    Same issue here. USA and UK English installed for offline use, but when not WiFi connected voice recognition doesn't work. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Android Central Forums

    Was your Nexus 7 defective or in Perfect condition?

    1st Nexus 7 16gig from the UK Play store had screen lift on the left. That was RMAed but the replacement has screen lift on the top right. Not particularly raised but clicks when pressed. Gonna leave it a week or two in the hope screen lift is resolved and then RMA again. Sent from my Nexus 7...

    Was your Nexus 7 defective or in Perfect condition?

    I ordered a 16gig on the 27th from the UK Google Play store. Got my Nexus on the 18th July. The screen was slightly raised on the left. OK to play with, but definitely needed replacing. Called Google on Sat 21st. Got an email to purchase a replacement for free and that arrived yesterday. New one...

    UK preorders shipping

    So you'll get it on Thursday? Did you order the 8 or 16 gig? I ordered a 16 on the first day. Yesterday I got a pending charge but no email or tracking. I'd really like to know the dispatch schedule but if the USA pre-order is anything to go by they seem to be sent out in a pseudo-random order!

    Google shipping the Nexus 7 in the UK... NOW!

    There seems to be some movement. My credit card had a pending charge applied yesterday and in Google Play my order has been updated to show 16th July. No email or tracking number. Looks like it might just about be within the 2-3 weeks advertised but really wish Google would clarify what is...
