Good thing I read the review. I was about to buy it from a seller in sulit. Phew!
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
i have one and currently not in use. i prefer karapace for nexus 4 by capdase.
[Nexus 4 General] exdas:
Woild you be willing to sell your bumper? :)
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
uh. yup. i am not using anyway.

i also have poetic booklet type case.

[Nexus 4 General] krjadejesus:
How much will you be willing to sell it sir? The original nexus bumper?
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
Sent you a pm yesterday since we're not allowed to discuss buy and sell here.
[Nexus 4 General] itenos:
Guys, totally off topic: I'm planning to stay in Manila for one or two months starting the day after tomorrow. Does anybody of you know about some apartments or condos to rent not exceeding 20k per month? They must be fully furnished of course, i don't want to buy any household items for that short period.

Thanks and sorry for the OT
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
When will you stay? I have a condo for rent in ortigas semi furnished. If ur not into cooking u can stay there without buying kitchenware. Or just buy disposables.

Its available after june though
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
There are some good ones in the makati area. I heard there are some in columns being rented out
[Nexus 4 General] itenos:
Thanks for replying guys. I don't know if we should continue this OT here or better in private mail. Anyway, I'm going to arrive in Manila in the afternoon of the 14th and i don't know the area very much, so please be as specific as possible. I already tried to look on sulit.com but could not find anything serious. Most ads show prices that don't match anymore once you open the detailed description. I'm not looking for places to stay for a year or more, just one or two months.

Thanks
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
guys who pm'ed me... replied. sorry late. i was out yesterday afternoon.
[Nexus 4 General] DaVince:
Yeah.. I'm wondering that myself since I'm not having any problems. But I'm using the Paranoid Android ROM so maybe that's it.
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
That's odd. I'm using paranoid with Franco kernel and I don't have any blue tooth or WiFi problems
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
It's because not everyone is affected by that issue. :D On stock rom since dec and no bluetooth or wi-fi problems here. I even connected a bluetooth speaker the other day to play done songs and all works well
[Nexus 4 General] bugnoy710:
I have some bluetooth issues. Will double check over the weekend. All stock, unrooted me :)
[Nexus 4 General] exdas:
Can you describe your issue?

I have a hard time pairing with my tablet but i think that's because of my tsblet's rom...
[Nexus 4 General] bugnoy710:
I need to switch my phone off and on again for bluetooth to work. It happens rarely though so I figure it's because of the power toggle app I'm using.
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
happens to me too. so what i do is turn on the bluetooth and leave it as is. it doesnt consume battery anyway unless you use it. it's a know issue and i am not sure why some don't experience it - god for them. reboot fixes the issue.
[Nexus 4 General] krjadejesus:
Agree, same here sir.

cracked screen

Hi

I got a minor crak in the lower part of my screen. :(

anyone have any experience as to warranty here in the philippines?

Is this covered under the warranty?

I got my unit from smart if that matters.
[Nexus 4 General] Stiban:
Hi Guys,

Has anyone tried the Smart LTE SIM on the Nexus 4 yet? If I remember correctly the Nexus 4 has a built in LTE chip.

Maybe someone can test it out if it will work for Smart. I'm not able to test as the area I live in doesn't have Smart LTE coverage yet.

Tried posting a link to the article about the built in LTE chip but xda prevents it if you have less than 10 posts.

Google "Anandtech Nexus 4 LTE" for the article.
[Nexus 4 General] poyskie:
I think the band used by the nexus 4 is not supported here in the Philippines
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
it's not supported (band 4). and besides it was already disabled in 4.2.2 anyway...

smart uses 1, 3, and 5
[Nexus 4 General] Raiken_:
Is the Nexus 4 a good device for use here in the Philippines? I'm kinda scared of getting one since of the glass back..and also where can I get one for a good deal?
[Nexus 4 General] bugnoy710:
I have no complaints. I've been using mine since December. No cracking on my part (and I hope that it's kept that way XD).

I'm not aware of current pricing though,sorry...
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
i accidentally dropped my phone hip level. no crack. what a relief. using capdase karapace.
[Nexus 4 General] blancer:
good day guys! i don't have time to backread so i'm sorry if my question has been answered before. is there a good case available for our device? like otterbox, cygnett and the like?

thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
I got mine from kimstore. No problems so far. On sulit they also have the white version. 16.5k I think.

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 PM ----------

Locally the only ones I saw were Capdase. They have a clear back hardcase, rubberized hardcase and a jelly case. All have a screen protector included for 900 pesos.

Nexus 4 OEM Cable

Hi, Anyone knows where I can get an OEM Nexus 4 data cable here in the Philippines? Tried looking the net but no luck finding one besides Play Store

While charging, my phone seems to change from AC to USB after a random amount of time even though It is properly connected to the AC. Tried another cable and charging seems fine so i'm assuming the cable is now defective and my phone doesn't have any warranty anymore.
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
try note1, sgs3 charger. i'm using it because it charge my n4 faster than the stock charger that came with it. rated 2A compared to 1.x stock. it's portable too...

this one in particular.
[Nexus 4 General] vicdp117:
Actually it is the cable that is defective, not the adapter
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
^ yup. try the cable that with the mentioned units. they're good. including asus.
[Nexus 4 General] blancer:
what store bro?

thanks.
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
I saw a lot on the 3rd floor of vmall. That's the only place. In other malls no stock.
[Nexus 4 General] blancer:
thanks bro. plano ko pa naman sa cyberzone sa megamall maghanap.

[Nexus 4 General] avellanas:
Hi guys, I'm a noob in rooting and flashing. I just registered today.

Got my nexus 4 a month ago in CA and I was just wondering if I can get the smart LTE.

Some threads say I can't. So I did some readings and found out that the Nexus 4 works on band 4, which is 1700mHz/2100mHz and that smart LTE is operating on 1800mHz and 2100 mHz.

So is it possible to get LTE if i switch my preferred network type to LTE/GSM/CDMA in the Phone info settings?

I just want to verify before getting an LTE sim :)

My Nexus 4 is rooted and has a CWM recovery. Running stock rom. :)

---------- Post added at 11:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 AM ----------

I saw that one too!

They say smart uses bands 1, 3 and 5.

Band 1 is 2100mHz

and that article in Anandtech says something about Nexus 4 using Band 4 (1700mHz/2100mHz)
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
Nexus 4 on the old radio works on band 4 aws which is different from band 1 imt. Philippine networks don't have that so it won't work despite seeing the 2100 in band 4. Smart uses band 1 imt on the 2100 frequency. I have an lte plan on smart but it doesn't work on the n4

[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
Yes that's where I got mine! In cyber zone also in the block there's a Capdase store.
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
Had a feeling it was that place. I get items from there too from to time. It's pretty legit. I've a feeling the owner of that store and the samsung store in greenhills are the same. Got before a battery from the samsung store and the receipt was Orange. Hehehe

[Nexus 4 General] Samzter:
Hi there! Just bumped into this thread and was wondering where can we avail the cheapest but of course a brand new 16GB Nexus 4 here in 'Pinas? I saw cmkcellphones.com's price which is at 21,250PHP and here in Zamboanga, it's 22,950PHP.

I like the crazy price at the US Play Store at $349 but it's just hassle to avail it from here. Damn.

How much did you get yours and where?
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
check widgetcity.com.ph. cheapest i've seen...
[Nexus 4 General] blancer:
+1 for widget city.

got mine for 16,790.
[Nexus 4 General] Samzter:
Oh are they legit? Last night I was turned off from their FB page's misleading ad about the Nexus 4 price drop to 14k, then it was the 8GB version. LOL
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
Widget city is legit as a seller just like kimstore. Majority of the units have only store warranty as they are a gray market seller. I believe only the early units from them have an official warranty from LG phils. If you want one that has official warranty, you'd have to go to the likes of cmk, memoxpress, LG directly

I have bought one from a physical store in Eton Centris just infront of Robinsons Galleria Hot Gadgets is the name of the store 16680 for 16 gig

btw way guys do you know how to block ads on a rooted nex4? romtoolbox and adblocker plus is not working

Just a tip. Its not LG or Samsung - the Next Nexus device is something for the first time includes 5.0 card ui Key Lime then

fully LTE support and much more :D he told me much but asked me not to tell anyone about it :D

well we know it will have the KLP but its the manufacturer is something we should be expecting since then :D

i see. i keep data on cause i'm using viber all the time. but i switch to 2g from time to time. i managed to squish 3hrs earlier but needed to charge before i went home. i hope my battery gets better. hehe

what rom/kernel are you guys on? and what case/bumper are you using. kinda curious cause i dont see many nexus 4s around my area.
[Nexus 4 General] :

Yes it does hve halo. Pac stands for

Paranoid android

Aosp

Cyanogenmod

Its a mix of all 3 roms.

Try franco kernel for longer battery life

[Nexus 4 General] krjadejesus:
Franco's M3 or Matr1x 9.5, both are exceptional.
[Nexus 4 General] :
Yeah, try also the new V10 of Matr1x, me and MK did a collaboration with it, it's called AOSPilipinas Project: N30/Matr1x.
[Nexus 4 General] krjadejesus:
Glad to hear that we have our local ROMs :), by the way, does your ROM have the full screen and pie from PA?
[Nexus 4 General] :
You mean this one...
[Nexus 4 General] krjadejesus:
Wow :), i mean, i love the pie from PA not that from slimbean, perhaps because of the smoothness and responsiveness, i think i am not aiming for features wih this i just want the pie to be accurate, consistent and fast. By the way, it is just for me, i am not really using nav bar buttons because i am having a hard time reaching them when using my Nex4 with one hand only, pie is more efficient and nearer to my thumb, and I want screen estate to be maximized in terms of usage area and display.
[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
nice. does it have halo? halo+pie+full screen is a winner.
[Nexus 4 General] :
I've used slim pie coz it's much lightweight, if you want to try it out the links on my sig.

No halo mate.
[Nexus 4 General] Visual360:
Hey guys,

Will be traveling to the Philippines in the coming months, and I was wondering if I can just buy a SIM card there, and expect it to work? If so, what do you guys recommend for the SIM card to get there in the Phils? Thanks!
[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
yes just buy micro sim and it should work. if you'll use mobile data i suggest you get a smart or globe sim. im personally using smart, if not i think sun os ok too (lowest unli sms/call rate but sucky data coverage). hth
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
im currently out of the country and made a mistake. so i am suggesting this:

1. keep your phone as is. dont change sim card. enable your voice/text roaming.

2. if you have old android phone that can tether, bring it or buy cheap single/dual sim android that can tether. bigger battery is better, obviously ;)

3. buy smart sim card. register for unlimited internet. tether to your main phone.

i hope this helps. i'm going to do this today.

[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
yes im on pa+m3 with full screen pie and halo. but i have my pie on the bottom. but i did have somewhat the same problem as yours, i had to press space and other keys multiple times for it to work, i just adjusted pie trigger area to normal, and that fixed it for me. (i had it on huge)

---------- Post added at 08:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 AM ----------

Thank you.

Could you please elaborate more on number 1.

I could enable voice/text, but isn't it cheaper to get a sim card there? Are you saying there's a possibility of damaging the N4 by switching the sim card?

On number 2: I also have an international version of the Galaxy. I tethered with it before, so I guess I could use it. On the other hand I have talked to my friends there, and they suggest to get a hotspot from Globe or Smart. Buy the equipment (which is relatively cheap), and tether from that. I'm not sure about the speed, but should be decent enough. What do you think?

Salamat!
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
elaborate no. 1: simple enable your roaming. dont change sim card.

yes it's cheaper to get SIM here. but roaming isn't that expensive especially if you're coming from US. calling US from here isn't expensive anymore. other countries not sure.

No. 2: use your internation galaxy to tether. why? bigger capacity battery and you can use the same sim to call/text. no need to carry 3 devices (main US phone, extra phone for PH, wifi hotspot - hassle to many stuff to bring).

my suggestion: your main phone + extra android phone for PH sim. just tether the internet. get smart. you can't go wrong. register for unlimited internet for x number of days.

[Nexus 4 General] eric_son:
I saw a Nokia Qi charger when I went to Hong Kong. I tried it out and it worked as expected. It worked even when with a Nilkin hard shell case.

I forgot exactly how much the thing cost...but I decided against getting it. I didn't think it was worth spending that much to get wireless charging functionality....

When I got back home, I started regretting my decision not to buy. :(

But now, what I'd really want to get is a SlimPort HDMI adapter.
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
if you guys are adventurous enough, you can look at this:

http://www.cdrking.com/index.php?mod=products&type=view&sid=16982&main=167

yeah was surprised that they have a qi charger available already and i tested one out in a store and it seems to work although the output is low so it'll take awhile for the phone to charge. but it's not bad for those who simply need something on the desk to give an emergency charge. it's rebranded as well and i saw the provider somewhere but can't seem to find a link to it at the moment. i'll just edit when i see it.
[Nexus 4 General] eric_son:
Cool! I failed to notice that one...and I just paid a visit to CDRKING last Friday. Had I known, I would have checked it out.

Anyway, is it possible for a defective Qi charger to damage your phone?
[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
wow that 's a good find.
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
I think there's always that chance even with original ones. Best bet is to thoroughly test. I'm not techie in that sense so don't take my word for it
[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
i'll try asking in g+.
[Nexus 4 General] jyuuken:
nope shouldnt damage the phone. ill buy it and will give a review guys
[Nexus 4 General] :
It wont damage the phone itself, but it may damage your battery, just think about that it has a standard charging voltage, and if the Qi Charger is quite defective, most likely it will give out a fluctuating signal since it's wireless. Just like defective routers, you tend to disconnect a lot.
