Hi there!

I'll be receiving my 13th month this week and I'm having a hard time whether to buy an N4 or the Xperia SP.. my only issue with N4 is the lack of LTE and the non-expandable memory. --- are these really a deal breaker? :(
[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
in the end, it is always up to you to decide. i have a n4 and my mom has an xsp. i think over all android experience is alot better on my n4, even the screen is better. plus its a lot easier to mod if youre into that. but i must say battery life on xsp just blows my n4 away. i have unli data on smart without lte and i dont use much store so yeah. n4 is my choice.
[Nexus 4 General] joemcua:
Thanks for the reply! I think I'm gonna go with N4.. one more thing on your mom's XSP though, does the screen really not at par with the N4? I have not thought of that since they're both 720 and 300+ ppi... how about the illuminator bar? Was it any good?
[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
the screen on my moms xsp is a little white for my taste, even more if you look at it at even the slightest angle, there is like a haze or something. illuminiting bar was fun but i quickly got over it. hehe. i guess im not into that kind of effects.

edit: im on pa 3.6 + franco m3 so my screen color might be a little diff from stock n4. i changed to this setup as soon as i got it so i cant compare to stock much.
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
Hxxxx is fast enough for me... expandable memory, so haven't experience running out of space except when copying movies from office back home.

if there is a choice between lte, microSD, and removable battery - i'll pick battery. but that does not mean battery life of n4 sucks. depends on your usage.
[Nexus 4 General] musashihatred:
Yeap +1. N4's screen even blows apple's ip5. For.me honestly.

Though view angles are not cool, its not like you're going to watch a movie while phone is tilted. Its lame. And ips lcd + 2 is really awesome. Though it give nc resolution, it might lack vividness sometimes :) though it pnly reflects real colors.

Ps. I went to cdr king but have no stock of Qi charger -_-…

Seen it in only 2 branches. The one in trinoma (the big one on the ground floor NOT the one beside sun shop) and the one in greenbelt 1. The other branches seem to just give me a puzzled look when i inquired before
[Nexus 4 General] musashihatred:
do you know how much is it?

what is its specs? how many Amps and Voltage output ?:D

PS. Guys, cant find a GOOGLE BUMPER case.

anyone knows where can i buy?

i PMed Adam888 at tcp. no reply

i asked one from sulit but its sold yesterday. -_- T_T

Mixtapes beat you to it.. Lol!
[Nexus 4 General] musashihatred:
i PMed him. already sold -_-
[Nexus 4 General] :
Try the Poetic bumper case. I was looking for that when I had no luck finding the Original OEM bumper case, but, luckily I got one now. Maybe if you can find one we can trade. Lol!
[Nexus 4 General] ngoralph:
Got one reserved from him he said it would be delivered to him July 8 try asking him via text
[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
what rom has halo and a transparent status bar? i really like halo and pie but full screen mode removes status bar which makes things a lot harder.
[Nexus 4 General] musashihatred:
hahaha i can think about that bro! :D where did you get one??

O_O can you ask him if i can get also another one ?:D

thanks.

---------- Post added at 02:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 PM ----------

well you can have all those 3 in AOSPA

Set Nav Bar = 0 DPI at Hybrid properties

You'll have PIE then at Bare Style

then activate HAlo :D
[Nexus 4 General] :
I got mine from adam888 this is the OEM one. If you get a Poetic Bumper lets talk about it. Lol!
[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
thanks mate. but i am looking for the pie with status bar info. pie with on bare state is kinda meh,
[Nexus 4 General] musashihatred:
well finding a rom with what you want is hard since its PA that created those stuffs,

you'll never get pie quick style up with a statusbar. halo is a given.

but you can configure apps with fullscreen mode. if ever :D
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Hmmm, PA is the best option as far as I can tell. Try experimenting on other ROMs that have PIE and maybe you'll find the one your looking for. :D
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
Here's the sticker at the back. Technically 500mA as compared to the standard 1.2A for the wired charger. If I remember it correctly the orb gives out about 700mA. It's 1.3k for the price
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
I hope he's not saying it's an original one because if one uses the pics as a basis, it's a replica.
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
It was really nice reading this forum guys but I'm selling my nexus 4. Thanks everyone!

[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Congrats on the HTC One! Anyways, you like more the GEd phone's than the Pure Nexus one? Once the fabled "Moto X" is out a lot of people will just be surprised it's just another GEd phone, not a pure Nexus. ;)

"Riddle me this, Riddle me that. Smash an iPhone with a baseball BAT!"
[Nexus 4 General] joemcua:
Hxxxx --- what do you mean by this sir?
[Nexus 4 General] digitallysick:
I hoping for the Google edition galaxy s4. Or maybe the regular galaxy s4 will run the google edition software without any issue.

If so i will jump ship from the N4. The nexus 4 is heavy, and battery life leaves a lot to be desired for me. Plus the huge lack of accessories, cases and poor camera quality. Other than those issues i like the phone for the most part.
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
Actually I just got the one because of how it looked. Was happy about the nexus 4 but I got so envious of my friend when I saw his htc one.

Other than that the software of the nexus 4 really is superior! Will be flashing stock android on this one soon.

[Nexus 4 General] ngoralph:
am getting nexus 4 this friday hoohoo

umm what negative thing could you point out about the nexus 4???
[Nexus 4 General] reicute789:
nothing really, as i dont mind no lte and limited storage. camera is good enough for me. the only thing i wish for is better battery life. i need to chsrge my phone twice because i have my data always on. but i guess any other phone wouldnt last more.
[Nexus 4 General] joemcua:
So happy for you. :) I'm still on the look out for a good buy.
[Nexus 4 General] ngoralph:

---------- Post added at 04:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:08 PM ----------

any suggestion where to get official bumper case or poetic ?? am not comfortable to buying a non official one because volume buttons maybe hard to press or something :)
[Nexus 4 General] joemcua:
Wow. That's great... :) how many items does your seller have? Maybe I could have one too! Any link?
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Try looking at TCP, a lot of people here found one there when I back read the thread.

---------- Post added at 04:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------

Negative? Hmmm... For me is the stock colors on the screen, although you can tweak it with an app like trickster or FkU. But overall performance is great, doesn't use this for gaming though so I can't comment on that part.
[Nexus 4 General] ngoralph:
Only 2 and literally begged him to reserved the first one for me lol and he removed it from sulit already :p
[Nexus 4 General] joemcua:
Okay.:(
[Nexus 4 General] munke3man:
Point me please!

Hi guys, am on my second Nexus 4 as the first one was snatched out of my pocket. :( Was wondering if anyone could point me where to get a pouch like this or similar so I can like hold my phone when on public transport, oh and the Capdase Karapace for nexus 4 as well. Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Try TCP, just type in the correct keyword. Or GizmoSheildz in facebook.
[Nexus 4 General] stankyou:
-The colors are washed out out of the box but that's nothing a custom kernel can't fix.

- Heats up pretty fast.. again custom kernel plus undervolting would keep it from turning into an oven in your hands.

Other than that, its awesome. Had mine since December last year (I think)
[Nexus 4 General] ngoralph:
i asked the dude and he said its orignal i believe him because he said it was shipped :P

hmm how'd ya say tht its a replica??
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Just to be sure, have him bring the receipt of the shipping cost. It's much safer that way since it's not that cheap.
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
Based on the pics in sulit, packaging isn't the original play store bumper. There are a lot of sellers claiming original bumper but they just get them from different online sites. There are ways to check them. Also, price of the bumper in play store is 20 plus shipping and taxes if applicable. The last i got sent to seattle cost 28. Given that plus the transit cost to the philippines and the profit of the seller, well, we can just do the math. Not discrediting him but it would be better if sellers declare what it really is so buyers are aware. If it's real as he says it is, then good for the buyer
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
I got mine for $25 when I was in LA. So most roughly about 1.5k here if you get one there plus the shipping.
[Nexus 4 General] ngoralph:
i get you! :) will just test it before getting it, i mean if buttons work fine and all :)

btw, is the bumper 2 part case????
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Yes, one is an aluminum of some sort plus the rubber. The buttons are just like the aluminum thingy. I dont use it much since I removed my screen protector at the front and back.
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
To add to what riddler(sorry man, hard to type in the exact name) mentioned, it isn't like those 2 piece cases wherein you put one and the other. Just snap it as a single piece. The aluminum colored band is plastic, by the way. Oh and check the inside of the buttons. Most replicas have it colored white or silver. Original is black

It depends on how low you are going to sell your TX, and I might just get your TX even if its 2nd hand instead of the Nexus 4 if the price is right =)

PM me!
[Nexus 4 General] Agwe23:
For 25k I'll. Just wait for the official release. At least you get one year warranty.

LG in megamall is accepting preorders. I'm fifth on the list. Accdg to them its exclusive to them this December(?) They expect it to be on sale either the end of this week or next week.
[Nexus 4 General] alfiemenace:
How much will they say it?

Stock ROM, custom user.
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
Based from the person i talked to, its going to be around 25k. But at least ull have lg warranty
[Nexus 4 General] Agwe23:
Another online store on Facebook selling for 23k. But I'm also leaning towards the official release.

Will we have the same launch date at hk (Dec 8)? I'm buzzing with excitement. Hehe
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
Whats the name of the store? Post link please if possible.

Anyway, there is still no official announcement of the official release. Afaik.
[Nexus 4 General] Agwe23:
Roody something in facebook
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
It's Roopy's Online
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
Thanks. Apparently its on pre order basis wherein stocks will be available on dec 8.

I would want to buy 8gb though for my friend and it seems asian release dont have this variant
[Nexus 4 General] darius0519:
Just got back from green hills and unfortunately nexus 4 is not yet available. But I was able to talk to one of the vendors and was told that they will contact me not later than next week when N4 will be available. I was also offered brand new S3 with 1yr warranty there for only P21,800. But i rather have N4 instead :D
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
Let us know how much and where in greenhills exactly when u already bought.

Maybe they also have the google bumper case for nex4 as well. I would like to buy it.
[Nexus 4 General] darius0519:
Ok. Let you guys know once I get mine. They don't have a case yet for the N4 as of the moment.
[Nexus 4 General] Agwe23:
Accdg to a comment from a post in yugatech's blog. LG in MOA is saying 3rd week of December with a 23k price tag. Hopefully it's accurate -- this has more details than what the attendants in LG megamall said
[Nexus 4 General] bugnoy710:
I inquired today at LG SM North. Nexus 4 will arrive in January with a P24,990 price tag.
[Nexus 4 General] techfreak:
Just want to ask nexus 4 owners here if you have encountered any creaking sound more likely in the top area of the phone when applying a bit of pressure?

Seems like n7 all over again wherein i even see a very small gap between glass and plastic. I would have never noticed it when i did not hear my n4 creak earlier. After that i checked the device for possible built issues and saw the small separation.
[Nexus 4 General] ads.underground:
hi guys,

official na ba yang price from LG SM North? and that sa january pa ang dating dito?

was planning on buying pero i won't be able to wait that long. so i was thinking of just getting the galaxy nexus since up-to-date din naman OS (which is what i'm after in the first place but i'm worried na baka jelly bean na last OS update so i'm a bit hesitant)

although the hardware upgrade in the nexus 4 is tempting pero yung price for now is not. the price might go down but at this point i think that will only be possible around Q2 next year.

so is it worth waiting for the nexus 4 by Q2 next year (hopefully all or most of the hardware and software issues should be fix by then)

or

should i go ahead and buy the galaxy nexus and just wait for the next generation nexus (the one coming after Nexus 4).
[Nexus 4 General] sajpogi:
Im sending my brother in law one. Should be there in 2 weeks. :)
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Here this might help...

Here's the inside where the buttons are located, it's black...
[Nexus 4 General] eluspo:
Flashing fk can fix the colors right?
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Any custom kernel that supports color tweaking will do, and dont forget to download a kernel app like fauxclock, FrancoUpdater or Trickster to tweak the colors. By default there are already preloaded color tweaks there so choose what suits you. ;)

hi i am using the capdase orig jellycase its 900 but is worth the money. added extra grip and protection if u use the carapase im sure it will shatter if dropped
[Nexus 4 General] munke3man:
Seriously? it will shatter? it's that fragile? where did you get your Capdase? Thanks btw!
[Nexus 4 General] Grimlogic:
Seconded. I'd like to know where to get Capdase cases for the Nexus 4 too. I've been to the malls in the Ortigas, Makati, and Taguig areas, but no luck.

Still using the cheap black knock-off jelly case being sold in Greenhills. It actually performs its function perfectly well, I'm just looking for an aesthetic upgrade.
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
You won't find much cases for the nexus 4 anywhere. I got mine from my suki in vmall greenhills, it's called Orange and on the 3rd floor. I bought the smoked carapace and the jelly case, both original Capdase. The workmanship and finish are excellent. I don't know if the carapace will shatter because I've never dropped my phone.
[Nexus 4 General] jyuuken:
i also bought mine in orange. oh btw its not the carapase that will shatter. its the phone when dropped hard in considerable height so for me the jellycase is definitely better since its rubbery and may protect the phone better than the carapace version
[Nexus 4 General] Grimlogic:
Thanks for the tip, I'll check it out this weekend! Will report back here for what I find.
[Nexus 4 General] ngoralph:
guys, finally got my nexus 4 :)

nexus brothers with my old phone

got it brand new for 15k lol what a steal also with lg warranty plus receipt :)
[Nexus 4 General] jyuuken:
congratzz
[Nexus 4 General] Grimlogic:
So I pulled the trigger on the black Capdase Soft Jacket from Orange in VMall. The rubber has a really nice, velvety feel, it's thin so it doesn't add much to the phone's profile, and it's just plain clean-looking. P900 as said before, and it comes with a clear screen protector. I was glad to get rid of the matte one I had.

Tried on the plastic Karapace too, but it's too thin to be of any protection, really. And it's more of a backplate than anything - the top and the bottom of your phone's exposed. For the price I'd rather get the jelly case.

Overall, pleased with my purchase. Phone looks brand new again. :D
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
guys sorry i am asking this again: you know a desktop stand with or without charger for nexus 4? thanks.
[Nexus 4 General] digitallysick:
Is the rubber grippy like silicone? Or is it slick? I have a bumper case that makes the phone slick and i hate it. Im looking for something with rubbery grip, Not just like a cheap plastic jelly case

If it is grippy for sure i would buy
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
there's a pretty nice stand I saw which works well for the n4. No charger though. It works like a suction. I saw it being sold in Rockwell just outside of the cinemas. It's just a stall there. Sorry but no pics as I didn't take any and when I went there I didn't buy it but I'm planning on getting that the next time I go. It's really nice. Try to drop by that place
[Nexus 4 General] Flash05:
^ oh oh you gave me an idea. car mount. and a base! thanks. cdrking + slab

of marble perhaps!

thanks thanks! but i will still wait for other suggestions while i still havent got one.
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
I guess you could say that. A car mount of some sort. I was grasping for words to explain how it looked like because it was really just a suction for the base and a suction for the phone itself. No clamps or clips. It attaches pretty well too despite the way the stand looks. I did some searching to see if there's something on the net which looks like what I saw. Here it is. You wouldn't think it would work when you see it but it was good
[Nexus 4 General] ngoralph:
guys

for those who desperately needs a case for nexus 4 but cant find one you can try s4 bumper case it fits pretty well but buttons hard to touch
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
One question which is better? Inviguard or ishield?
[Nexus 4 General] thephantom:
Between the 2, Ishield is better. However both aren't good. If you want wet installed protectors, gadgetshieldz or bestskinsever are better options. You have to order online for them though
[Nexus 4 General] jyuuken:
its a little grippy worth the purchase :)

btw guys what headset do u use with ur gnex4s?
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
I use Beats and Skull Candy. The original one of course. ;)

Anyone having problems with the physical keys of your Nexus 4? I need to press the power button multiple times just to lock/unlock mine and it gets worst everyday. I need your advise.
[Nexus 4 General] jyuuken:
no prob with mine. did u buy it bnew?

if u want look for a rom with swipe to lock and swipe to wake options so that the button doesnt get abused
[Nexus 4 General] vinbaure:

But inviguard have lower replacement fee, 200php unlike invishield, 250.

to those who bought bumper case from adam888 from tcp is it really authentic???
[Nexus 4 General] jyuuken:
is the bumper case worth the hassle? i havent seen one but it only covers d sides ryt?
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
Just to be sure check the buttons from the inside, if it's black then go for it, also ask for a receipt of some sort. ANyways I'm not currently using my bumper case, kinda tired of it, still thinking about selling it.
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
I think that's covered. Most likely you got one of the first production units. Along the lines the hardware was revised for the nexus 4 like and those who got the rev11 got better buttons and nipples on the backside.
[Nexus 4 General] vinbaure:
Thanks sir. Any idea where can I have my phone fixed?
[Nexus 4 General] prinzhernan:
Depends. Do you have official warranty or service warranty? Usually you can have it fixed from the shop where you bought it from, if not with LG themselves.
[Nexus 4 General] vinbaure:
I have them both. Maybe I'll try to call them first. Thanks sir!
[Nexus 4 General] Gnome:
You can try to install the slide 2 wake/lock app from the playstore, untill you have that button fixed by your warranty.
[Nexus 4 General] ngoralph:
sell it.... to me lol
[Nexus 4 General] Grimlogic:
It's a bit slippery for me. I would have wanted it to be a bit more grippy, but for the quality I can't complain. Your impression when you actually hold it in your hands may vary.
[Nexus 4 General] jyuuken:
yup. but coming from the unbranded jelly cases its a little better grip wise and way better aesthetically
[Nexus 4 General] munke3man:
probably been asked before

Hi guys, this has been probably been asked before and most of you have probably answered it. Anyway here it goes, am kinda torn between getting a dry and wet install screen protector. Been reading up on wet install and I wanna hear it from the people who actually have used it. Kinda looking for something that doesn't have that orange peeling thing, no rubbery feel like the ones on iShield, crystal clear and somewhat provides some amount of protection. Thanks in advance.
