Anyone who cancelled the order and got the Cancellation not allowed as order already processed email message however still not yet receive shipping information within 48 hours ?


Trying to find out the trend. Just a week ago..if you received cancellation not successful message,it meant about to ship..but I dont know after a week or since 12Dec (all pending changed back to Pre-Order). The approach still the same or not..


I have 2x 16GB ordered on 12Dec..stuck till now with no further shipment status and I tried to cancel the order but received order processed.


If Google change the mechanism..many with multiple accounts and keep ordering and assume order could be cancelled easily as long as units not shipped. may end up with too many phones.

If that happend..the only way is to purposely disclose your location by adding home address as Singapore and Flip flop locations login with Gmail..one time at Singapore, VPN to USA for 2 minutes..keep repeating that..likely Google will cancel the order automatically..

you may want to contact them by email to googleplay.support @google com (not gmail). i had my enquiry replied by human (not autoreply), but note that it may take 2-3 days.

Just to check, you guys create a new account when you reorder and put your US address for everything including credit card billing address rite?

Tried to reorder with new account but got a notification soon after that the order was cancelled because they were unable to verify the account information :(

i used citibank master. address was CGW address.

When i reorder, must i create a new email? Thought i read it somewhere.

If create new email, will it be hard to sync the old information from the old email from the new one?

when you order your phone at play store, you can choose to have your "disposable" playstore account to be factory loaded into the phone, or have it kosong.

Aiya I gave up. Going to buy note 2 instead. All the wait has lead me to read up more and more about the device and people who got it seem to complain a lot about it, from battery life to the screen to volume rocker to cracked glass, even someone having 2 nexus 4 one working fine the other having washed out screen and worse battery life for no particular reason.

If they had shipped to me earlier I'd probably be living happily with it but all the wait.. .____. Some more my phone kaput already. The funny thing is, I can't cancel my order because it has been "processed" (probably 2 days ago) as I ordered it during the Nov 27 batch. Just going to **** it, remove my debit card from my google wallet. They can't debit me when they ship, they'll cancel it.

I hope you guys enjoy the phone as much as I think I would! :D And don't go read up too much about it or else you might have second thoughts like myself, although I think I would probably live happily with the Nexus 4 even with those faults.

I think they still will be able to charge you.. because you authorized them to take the amount when u proceed to order.

The wallet card information is to store our card number so in the future we do not need to reenter.

Even after years of Android, I can say for sure trying to get battery life as it should work is still an arcane art.

If you get lucky, you get a straight line in the battery screen. But more often than not, it's a sloping decent that's disheartening. :( And it has nothing to do with hardware or battery capacity (mostly). Even a Note 2 or Razr Maxx encounter the same crap, depending on luck. :(

Theres definitely something wrong with your device.

Notice the almost horizontal line in the image? Thats when i was sleeping. Post some screenshot here so we can help. My advice, try uninstalling all apps den sync to google and back up. Reset your device. Wipe everything. Den download back your apps.

Try to email Google around 3-4pm. Their CSOs apparently start to respond around that time. I had a to and fro email with their CSO around that time. 3 replies from them within an hour. so i would say quite responsive
