I ordered my nexus 4 16gb and got an email saying “estimated ship 2-3 weeks”. I hope it will be here sooner. I’m looking to replace my aging iPhone 4 with the Nexus 4. I ditched AT&T because of their horrible service and price gouging. However, my iPhone 4 only gets edge data speed on T-Mobile. Drop calls and fail to send text messages are my constant frustration on the iPhone 4 because of its antenna design .

I have never used an android phone. The Nexus 4 will be my first android phone. I’ve been using iPhone since the first generation iPhone. This will be a new experience and I think there’s no better time than now. My girlfriend already got her Samsung Nexus. So far she has good overall experience with the phone on T-Mobile. I can’t wait for the phone to be here.

Boom! Take that, Verizon! I really hope this shakes up the whole subsidized phone with a crazy monthly the carriers have been monopolising us with.

I thought about doing the pre-paid, but instead, i’m doing a value plan and jumping in with my brother. It only costs him 20/month to add me to his 1000 minute plan with unlimited data. Overall, it drops our verizon bill by 70 dollars (parents still on it) and the way we worked out t-mobile, adding me actually saves him 7 dollars a month. Overall 77 dollars a month savings here!

That’s exactly what I’m doing. Going to T-Mobile prepaid for $30 a month; I’m going to save $85/month on my phone bill. I just refinanced my house and lowered my interest rate by almost 1.5%, and I’m saving the same amount as my phone bill savings by switching to T-Mo! That’s insane! Really shows me how much these guys are overcharging for mobile service.

I agree with your point, but I have never, ever hit anything less than 35ms on Verizon LTE. Since the iPhone 5 launch, I’m rarely under 70ms anymore (often over 100). Practical differences matter more to me than theoretical ones (though your coverage area might be different).

You are amazing. Perusing through howard forums, it seems pretty straight-forward. Maybe I can sell my plan for 100 + 200 for phone and basically get a free nexus 4.

Yes, it does. As long as the person doing the Assumption of Liability has an existing family plan, they can take over your lines as is, unlimited data and all, no problem. If they don’t have an existing plan to add the line to, they’ll be stuck going to a Share Everything plan. The exception is if you’re getting rid of the entire plan, in which case a non-Verizon customer can take it all over as is. Once they take over the line, they can migrate another phone number to it. Also, make sure they have a device to put on the line because your device will still be attached to the plan when it’s transferred (which is obviously fine if you’re also selling them the phone, but most people seem to bring their own device).

Check out Howard Forums or Cell Phone Forums (don’t want to link to another cell phone site on here out of respect for DL) for people selling their plans and looking to purchase lines. The going rate for an unlimited line (the $9.99 line fee plus $29.99 data fee) is something like $50-125. I sold mine for $75; probably could have got more, but I needed it gone.

I just went through the process, so feel free to ask me anything about it!

How Long Is The Wait For A Replacement Nexus 4 Back Glass?

And will they sell them in 3 packs?

Hi guys….I ordered Galaxy Nexus 4 yesterday….I received an email for order confirmation and it will be shipped 2-3 weeks. And you’ll only be charge once it shipped. Opened my bnk acc. and so the charge was already placed…But I didn’t received any shipping confirmation from Google. Is this to be expected?
