Trick to Order the Nexus 4

I have found a trick that let me order a Nexus 4 16GB just moments ago (around 1:10pm EST). I plan to use the device for reviews of upcoming “Holo” apps.

Here’s how it works:

1) Go to https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=nexus48gb 2) Where you see the option to “Choose another Nexus 4″ click between the 16GB and 8GB versions.

After doing this a couple of times I was able to “Add to Cart” both the 8GB and 16GB versions (I only went ahead and ordered the 16GB).

Trick is still working this moment (1:15pm).

Good Luck! :)

Update: You may see an error in the cart when you try to check out, just go back and retry the process above (after three failed attempts we got through, and just received our confirmation email).

Also, for those wondering, we were able to checkout using Chrome (but IE8 also appeared to work as well) and I can only confirm that this works in the US.

    Any specific browser? I get an error when I try to add to cart.

    I can’t get “Add to Cart” to show up for either right now

    If you get it into your cart and then reach an error on the summary page, don’t even bother going back. Just keep hitting Proceed on the summary page. It will eventually go through.

    I tried this, no longer working. Bummer.
