Nexus 4 User Decodes Serial Number, Says Only 400,000 Units Manufactured So Far - International Business Times

Checked mine I bought 26th Dec and its true.


Mine is 212K

Mine starts with 210k so that means mine came out in October 2012. That is interesting how they figured that out.

Check the number on the box Not the number on the phone,

There's been a lot of speculation about this but it was proved to be untrue. Also this is only talking about the 16 gig.

Notice how the serial number of the packaging box is different from the serial number of the phone itself. "Much ado about nothing."

I read in an inverview with someone from LG or Google and they said that there were quite a bit more than what folks were speculating.

They would say that...

This is so exhausting already...

Either Google or LG need to just step up and take responsibility and say it won't happen again and that both parties are ready to supply as many phones are needed to meet future demands.

Samsung would never let something like this happen....enuff with the blaming game already. Just rectify it!

... enuff with the blaming game already. Just rectify it!

They've already rectumfied it.

They've already rectumfied it.

Really?


How so?

By LG saying Google underestimated how popular the phone was going to be and not ordering enough phones?

Or by Google saying LG has been slugs on producing the phones at a snails pace?

If it had been rectified the phone would be available and in stock to order through the play store at this very moment, sorry man, sadly its not been rectified and the blame game continues!

I can't remember where I read it but I read that production would be significantly ramped up for mid February. Obviously it takes time to do this but apparently demand will be met then. I've also just read the UK thread on XDA where a slug of people have received there shipping confirmations.

Really? How so? ...

(sigh) Look up the word "rectum" in a dictionary if you need the humor explained.
