[Nexus 4 General] Silverspitz:
I suggest that you don't get a Galaxy Nexus, poor batt life, poor camera, no expandable memory, plasticky exterior. I suggest you get an S3 na lng if you can't wait for the Nexus 4. I'd rather have Galaxy S2 or an Xperia S than the GNex.
[Nexus 4 General] eric_son:
I'm in the same dilemma.

I've had my HTC Desire for 3 years now and I'm now itching to get a new phone. I can probably wait till January though since I managed to hold out for 3 years. But if I can't wait any longer, I'm looking at getting an HOX+.
[Nexus 4 General] Awestrike:
I'm actually hoping to get it from Smart but with the current pricing trend for their devices, I'm anticipating it's going to cost more than a Note 2. And I'm having trouble justifying getting the N4 over the Note 2.
[Nexus 4 General] Silverspitz:
I'm with you bro, same dilemma. I still have my Nexus One with me CM7, with Holo launcher, trying so hard to be ICS-ish. One of my strongest reason to go for Nexus 4 over the existing cheap offers of S3 and Note 2 is that I'm really into LCD screens. HOX+ is sadly the 2nd on my list. Still itching to switch but waiting for that price drop!
[Nexus 4 General] djkinetic:
Trust me you guys are going to want a warranty with the phone, there have been many reports of yellowing screens, faulty hardware causing the phone to not power on, glass cracking, along with rattling of components within the earpiece...just some advice from a Nexus 4 US owner =P

---------- Post added at 12:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 PM ----------

if google updates and massive dev support arent important to you then get the Note 2.

---------- Post added at 12:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:26 PM ----------

Other users on XDA have experienced the same creaking/rattling, also a buzzing noise from the earpiece is suppose to be normal the creaking shouldnt be.
[Nexus 4 General] stankyou:
The buzzing noise seems to be caused by EMI. The phone in airplane mode makes the buzz go away. I wonder how this affect battery drain.
[Nexus 4 General] ads.underground:
is the glass cracking issue common or just an isolated issue? i've read this on some blog but can't remember where. so far this is the only issue that i'm worried about. probably get my unit from LG if ever i decided to get Nexus 4.

i've been reading this thread. i've read up to page 11 but so far no mention of the glass cracking.

the rattling sound seems to be normal as it is available for other phones as well, according to posts on that thread. i'll keep reading the thread and see if there are other issues as well.
[Nexus 4 General] Agwe23:
@techfreak atc? Where there? Floor? Etc? Any info would be great
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
Actually i was just informed. But latest update is that 25k is actually the 8gb version and it is on festivall mall. I can ask for the exact area but currently my colleague is on sl today. Anyway, i think its too expensive for u to be interested.
[Nexus 4 General] Agwe23:
Yikes. I'm willing to bite for 16gig but 8 gig? Too much
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
Yup. Way too much. Just buy from kimstore 24900 for 16gb and last time i checked, they still have stocks.
[Nexus 4 General] Agwe23:
I don't like kimstore. Had 2 mishaps with them. Once when I tried to buy my Sony nex camera from them a.few.years back. And just last week when I tried to buy the nexus4 from them. They said 3 pm then at 3 they said reschedule to tomorrow. I don't trust them.
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
Awwww. I bought mine from kimstore the next day they announced it. Anyway, you can try from roopy's online shop. They will have stocks soon i think.
[Nexus 4 General] Agwe23:
Is roopy's legit? I've never dealt with them before and the nex4 is only by delivery. Meaning deposit first
[Nexus 4 General] darius0519:
Still no update from my contacts in green hills. They said that eta is by the end of December or January. Di ko na kaya maghintay ng Ganun katagal. Hay... :(
[Nexus 4 General] marvsxxix:
Well. I decided to give kimstore a try, I just ordered from them late this afternoon and they still have stocks, they confirmed they will meet with me tomorrow. I will let you know guys how it will turn out.

I was actually planning to wait for the official release from LG but when i approached 3 different LG stores all of them have the same response that Nexus 4 will be coming this December but they are not sure if its before or after Christmas...Warranty is really important for me but I ran out of patience. I can't fight the urge to have the phone
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
Good luck on your purchase. Welcome to the club of people without patience. Lol
[Nexus 4 General] Water Dispenser:
does anyone know any sellers for nexus 4 bumpers or case? is it available already?
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
Ur timing couldnt be any better. Just found one that sells here and will habe stocks soon. Note however that this is not a google bumper case.

Pic attached.
[Nexus 4 General] marvsxxix:
WOW! Kimstore just called me and told me that Nexus 4 is no longer available due to delay in shipping.. then I'm just wondering why they told me last night that they still have stocks available and confirmed my order. That's heart breaking...

I'll just take this a sign that I must wait for the official release from LG Philippines.

and that's how i see ANDROID over and iPHONE. seriously. iphone is just as flashy as a spoon fed phone. android is fun the way you wanted it to be. Fun in ways you can have it and in ways that you can see it :D

I'll wait for the odexed.
[Nexus 4 General] eric_son:
Yeah! :)

And I raise it to ^1000

But seriously, I know a lot of people who prefer the non-changing iPhone UI experience. When I still had my Desire as my main phone, I'd frequently switch between Stock, Sense (with frequent Android Kitchen UI changes), MIUI and QiSS whenever I get bored. Even when I got my N4, I'd still keep my Desire up to date with the latest Custom Roms (the desire is immortal!) My happy camper iPhone co-leagues frequently remark that the iOS UI is so perfect, there's no need to change things. Android is so bad, I frequently get tired and keep flashing different UIs just to be "happy". (AND as expected, when the preview of the new iOS came up, they were all ecstatic, saying that it's a groundbreaking, long overdue change, etc...)

Long overdue change eh... on a perfect UI? Hehehe..I just let it pass. I've all but given up debating with people like those.

If they're happy, let them be. :D
[Nexus 4 General] krjadejesus:
Everyone has his own preferences, though for me iOS 6 is almost perfect, i think it should not be changed. The superiority of the design of the software that matches the hardware that no mobile OS can beat including the optimizations. That is the reason i was not that excited with iOS 7 perhaps what iOS needs is additional features not really an overhaul to its design. I know people who love apple devices because of the insconsistency over Android and other mobile OSes that they had experienced or experiencing and they themselves do not want change that they only want fast transactions and long-term services. Anyway i am still loving my Nex4 because i am that person who easily get bored wih the UI so options is needed for me (and i really hate the nav buttons that is why i am using PA).... But not really satisfied with the apps and consistency of Android... Long way to go.
[Nexus 4 General] joe_dsi:
how's your battery life after the 4.3 update? mine got worse tsk
[Nexus 4 General] SonicYan:
Can't say yet, but today has been pretty bad. 17% left after 7 hours with an hour 50 minutes of screen time. On constant H+ though and did use it as a hotspot for an hour or so with some light GPS use.
[Nexus 4 General] jyuuken:
Battery stats or it didnt happen :D
[Nexus 4 General] Droid2drummer:
FYI. Give two days then report back. Seems the settling is actually a proven thing for me personally when I flash. Though for couple of years I never saw how it was really relevant. Lol hope it gets better for you as it should. Also. Even though you just took ota. And its non data wiping form and goodness (lol) its wise and will only do good to wipe data reset one good time. ;)

Odd, double posted

Yeah I will give it a few days and report back. Hopefully it gets better. Thanks man

Wake up lag

Hi. Im relatively new to this group..

Has anyone experienced a 1-2 second lag when waking up the phone? Usually the backlight i on and takes a good sec or two before the homescreen shows up. Im on all stock. Updated to 4.3 via ota. It has been happening to me quite often now.

Any ideas will be appreciated.

Is there a website or thread somewhere that I can report a bug? It seems that my phone keeps restarting whenever I video chat on skype or have my front camera on. This only started recently after the 4.3 update. Tried searching but haven't found similar issues here.

Edit: nm, seems this isn't only happening to me, a few users on skype seem to be having the same problem. I wonder if the culprit is skype though. The phone also restarted when I was playing around with the front camera, even while not on skype.
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
i think the front cam has a bug even when i was still in 4.2.2. i tried using it as a mirror and hanged after 10-15mins. FCed and unable to use it after. requires restart and fixes the problem.
[Nexus 4 General] SonicYan:
I see. This never happened to me though on 4.2.2. :-\

Quick Question!

I'm on a newly rooted N4 JB4.3 with jwr build. I just installed Franco Kernel Updater from playstore but whenever I search for new kernel using the app it returns r165. Should this work with my build or should I download the r174 one? Which one is more stable, I don't change kernel or roms often I just want something that is very stable on daily use. I don't have a problem with the stock kernel but I just wanna use franco coz of it's battery life and comptability with touchcontrol(PGM), I dont like to keep using power button as it will strain the button in the long run. Hope you guys can help me shed light on this. Thanks in advance! :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] ElliSkyline:
The latest for franco is r174 for jwr. yes download the v174 for your rom

i don't think franco got his app updated because he went on vacation.

go here to download the zip http://minooch.com/franciscofranco/Nexus4/4.3/
[Nexus 4 General] munke3man:
Thanks!!

Thanks for the reply, do you happen to be on FK r174? any thoughts or issues using it as daily driver? Thanks again!
[Nexus 4 General] ElliSkyline:
Salamat! :)

Ako? I used to used Franco but recently switch over to purified kernel as I'm using JSS AOSP build. Franco kernel is great actually, good battery, excellent performance and lots of features.

I haven't have any issues with it during the time I was with it and yes I can say that it is good for a daily driver.
[Nexus 4 General] munke3man:
Thanks again!

Thanks again for the reply, been searching for some inputs to push me in using alternative kernel. :)
[Nexus 4 General] ElliSkyline:
No problem!!

Just be careful if your gonna undervolt your device, not all phones can handle the same voltages so go down -25mV at a time and don't click set voltages on boot until you know your device is stable with those frequencies (no hangs or random reboots)

To me undervolting keeps my device a little bit cooler than stock voltages, but i'm not telling you to do it, that's up to you.

Do some research first on undervolting before you go ahead with it.
[Nexus 4 General] munke3man:
Nah, not gonna undervolt. just gonna stick with the default settings(ondemand I believe) I read in the FK thread on G+ that the default setting is already optimized by franco for battery saving. I just want that extra juice to get me through the day of using the phone and prolly change the color settings. Sucks that touchcontrolPGM doesn't work with r174 tho. :( I really hate putting so much strain on the power button.
[Nexus 4 General] ElliSkyline:
You can download Trickster Mod from the Play Store, it supports Sweep2Wake

Oh man i wish i was back in Manila right now :)

It's been so long since i've been home.

Whats the Nexus popularity there?

PS: if you don't like the Stock EQ for sound, i got a thread where you can flash Cyanogenmod's DSP Manager EQ, Better Bass ;)
[Nexus 4 General] munke3man:
It does? gonna check that out. It's not that popular, I have been around the metro looking for screen protectors and cases it's extremely difficult to get one. The store which do hold the stocks are quite expensive. :( some stores dont even know what a nexus 4 looks like.

Try flashing a different radio if able if not something went wrong with the ota image. You can try re-flashing again via fastboot and see if that made a difference.
