No it's not too much. Infact, not enuff to make a fuss about it. Yes I had S2. I still have it. Infact Custom ROM and Kernel can help u cooling the temp of battery.
[Nexus 4 General] OrrPenn18:
Me came from the S2 ... Believe me, all the stuff which we used to crib on S2, half baked cm builds and the closest we had were MCM's butter builds. This feels like heaven. 100% stable, mine doesn't overheat like the S2(staggering heat around the camera). And yes, custom kernels solve this issue if it may persist.

The best move I have made. N4 kills the quad core section.
[Nexus 4 General] aceian:
Thanks eddy and Orr....

Half baked builds are bad...

For just playing real racing 3 I'm on stock rom on my s2.....such a sacrifice.... :eek:

Today is last day of my s2..

Just hope I find a nexus locally soon....

[Nexus 4 General] rakeshishere:
Not bad in terms of resale value :p

Everyday I think about selling my SGS2 & just can't find a comparable alternative. Don't want to trade off any features & only wished N4 came in a 32GB variant
[Nexus 4 General] aceian:
Thanks.!

That's why I asked is it a good move..

Space is ok for me ...

Only problem was the heating one.... But people seem to do fine with it when rooted..

I'm also thinking about moving from the S2 to the Nexus. If anyone has done that, please give the ups and downs of the move.
[Nexus 4 General] eddy4823:
Ups

-Smooth UI

-Prompt updates

-Better Hardware

-better dev support

Downs

-Display isn't as good as S2

-Camera quality is better in S2

-S2 has better features on stock which are absent in Nexus unless u root and install custom rom. though they are tiny but makes difference. eg: t9 dialer, flip to silence etc etc.

-option of expandable memory
[Nexus 4 General] trueblueram:
Display is better then s2, needs calibration though.

I don't think Flip to silence is really a deal killer. You had to put up with touch wiz too

(I had an s3 before)
[Nexus 4 General] rajarshi10:
This gives an idea about the two cameras. S2 and Nexus 4

Clearly, Nexus 4 is better :p

I'm thinking of getting the ringke fusion case but I'm worried that it adds too much thickness to the phone.

People who are using it, does it add a lot of thickness or does it feel similar like a naked phone?

And also can u guys suggest me a good screen protector!

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 General] punitthereddevil:
I'm using ringke from the moment I got my phone...and I have absolutely ABSOLUTELY no complaints...even about the finger prints issue...its a subjective opinion though...but I would advice a ringke any day...go for it...!!!:)

Can anyone tell me what's new in the 305k model?
[Nexus 4 General] OrrPenn18:
Only new back nubs and camera placement on the back.
[Nexus 4 General] josinpaul:
Yup. I bought it from them. They are trustworthy and they deliver in 3 days max ( with proper bill which mentions IMEI number). I received a phone made on may 2013 (jdq39E). So the stock they have is new. Courier is blue dart and they shows detailed tracking information.
[Nexus 4 General] :
Saholic says theres Headset in the box? Is it?
[Nexus 4 General] josinpaul:
No. I had not received it. When I called them about it they said its a mistake and lg does not supply any headset with nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 General] sam razzy:
Yes its trustworthy website.. 3days before I ordered Nexus 4 from that website, what I did is that curiously I got good offer from my friend posted as a manager at Sangeetha Mobile Bangalore.. Later saholic delivery boy called me for receiving their product.. Lol.. I told him sorry I don't need the product as I didn't get the product in time.. Hahaha
[Nexus 4 General] mohitdabbaail:
Hey guys !

I'm thinking of selling my Galaxy S3 to buy Nexus 4. Is it the right decision ?

The reasons why I want to get rid of my S3 are

1. It has the SDS prone motherboard.

2. The phone quicky runs out of RAM no matter which ROM I try. I always have to close the apps and greenify them.

3. The custom samsung roms start lagging like hell after few days.

What do you think? Should I buy Nexus 4 ? I'm fine with 16GB of storage space.
[Nexus 4 General] :
If you are really sick of ur phone then yes. !
[Nexus 4 General] sam razzy:
If I'm not wrong, S3 has 1gb RAM which is less than N⁴.. So if you consider RAM then you can choose nexus4..

Secondly if you can go with 16gb storage, then its great to make a move on to new world of flasholic.. Haha :D even I bet nexus has good battery life considering S3 .. What say guys ?
[Nexus 4 General] king231:
You can never say that s2's display is better than that if nexus 4. Amoled's look punchy and vibrant (which I'm not a huge fan of) kind of look but nexus 4 has a lot crisper display and produces natural colors.

The lifespan of AMOLED displays is not that good. You could develop a bluish tint on some part of the screen just after few months of usage. If AMOLEDs display perfect black levels, IPS LCDs display perfect whites, even the replacement of LCD panels is quite a lot cheaper than AMOLEDs(if you happen to get into that kind of a situation). If the screen size and the resolution were the same then we could have brought in all the practical aspects discussed above, but here nexus 4 is the clear winner
[Nexus 4 General] punitthereddevil:
Hey Sam...u checked out the pics I uploaded right...?
[Nexus 4 General] king231:
I've observed one thing that only about 500mb of the ram is used up while normal usage so that should be great for and another advantage is that stock android is the smoothest android than anything else
[Nexus 4 General] punitthereddevil:
Is there a way to take screenshots on the nexus natively...? Or do we have to use 3rd party apps...?
[Nexus 4 General] ral7:
Press Power and the volume down button.
[Nexus 4 General] sam razzy:
You can press power and volume down together to get a snatch of screenshot... Its quite easy but must press buttons. :P

[Nexus 4 General] ral7:
Hahaha :p thank you :D
[Nexus 4 General] mohitdabbaail:
RAM is really an issue which makes the whole Touchwiz UI laggy. It's impossible to run Samsung ROMs without lag even on a custom ROM. I tried the leaked 4.2.2 custom ROMs. They were really fast but around 600-700 RAM was already taken by the system. After a few hours everything started getting slow.

I've decided to go for Nexus 4.

I live in Ghaziabad. Can anyone give me an information on where can I find Nexus 4 in Ghaziabad or Delhi ? I want to buy it from a store.
[Nexus 4 General] eddy4823:
Lol. that's why ppl install custom kernel amd then change colors. also, nexus doesn't have good display when u go in sunlight. I am big fan of nexus. a fanboy u can say. but these points can't be denied. not complaining but just being honest.
[Nexus 4 General] RohanM:
4. Multitasking sucks on GS3

These are the reason for which I sold My S3 & moved on to N4. :)
[Nexus 4 General] sam razzy:
Now you can find almost in every retail shop.. Go to univercel or sangeetha. You can grasp the nexus4 on your hand.. :)

[Nexus 4 General] RohanM:
Dude u r talking abt S2 !! I sold my S3 for 24k & now proud owner of N4. :cowboy:
[Nexus 4 General] mohitdabbaail:
I've checked their website. Both of these have stores only in South India.

---------- Post added at 11:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:51 PM ----------

I going in the same direction. Selling my S3 for Nexus 4. I don't think I'll ger 24k for a phone which is now available for 27k.

I've seen comparison videos on Youtube where the Nexus 4 was even faster than the S4.
[Nexus 4 General] Reza_707:
Already did the same . sold my s2 fr 13k but it was 2 yrs old . got the n4 fr 24,500/- from eBay & really happy with the move . the heating issue occurs fr prolong usage of internet but not as much as s2 & gets cleared immediately.
[Nexus 4 General] punitthereddevil:
I don't think it comes in white variant...in my hunt for the perfect case I literally checked some 20 videos and many sites too...but never came across a white ringke...but I think there's a white coloured ringke slim...but not ringke fusion...

---------- Post added at 07:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:00 AM ----------

That's coz of the glass back panel...glass is a good heat conductor...so heats up quick...but also loses the heat quick...good for the battery since its not removable but is still protected from overheating...
[Nexus 4 General] lorzinian:
What would be the cheapest way to import a White nexus 4 from US to India. I know there are many reviews in this thread about borderlinx, hopshopgo, ishopinternational, etc.. which is the cheapest currently?

Also, I have bought many phones through Borderlinx and have never paid anything for customs from my pocket. I hear that recently Borderlinx policy has changed and I might end up paying duty to DHL. Is it true? Kindly help me out on this. I'm planning to buy three white ones.
[Nexus 4 General] punitthereddevil:
Guys if your getting screen protectors,don't go for complete body protection...especially if your using ringke fusion...the gap between the transparent back of the case and the glass back of the phone is very small...so even minute amount of increase in thickness due to a screen protector,leaves behind wet spots...the protector touches the case in the central parts and makes it look very bad...

I don't know about other brands but its an issue with gadgetshieldz...

---------- Post added at 07:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 AM ----------

why don't you get it in India itself...? It might be a 1-2k more but u get warranty and service here...

---------- Post added at 07:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 AM ----------

Hey Sam razzy...

Which thread did u refer to unlock and root your nexus...? There are 2...temme which is the better and easier one...
[Nexus 4 General] lorzinian:
Is the white one already available for sale in India retail shops? I thought only the black ones were out for sale. Also, if I import from Google play now, I can't ask for warranty I'm India with LG? It is international warranty right?
[Nexus 4 General] punitthereddevil:
Nope...no international warranty...and the white one is all over the online retails...they have a shortage of blacks...snapdeal if forcing customers with the white one even though they don't want it...they say the choice of color is not in the hands of the customers..looks like their way of making sure they don't lose customers...

Anyways go online and check out sites...lots of them have whites...your lucky u already like the white one...coz snapdeal has forced some people into liking it...:)

The phone has a weird bug. Sometimes it detects the wall charger as USB and so bit takes a really long time to charge. Unplugging and replugging fixes it. Each time it gets disconnected for some reason( charger falls, loose plug, etc) check if its charging in AC mode when you insert it back.

Just the protectors.

Piece of advice : Apply only the back protector. They are way too rubbery. You won't feel like using the phone
[Nexus 4 General] Mohit12:
I haven't used it yet but I don't think I'll mind the orange peel too much. I come from a very crappy phone and an even worse screen protector. Besides, maybe it'll just add a little grip.

Guys where is the the NFC chip located on nexus because tried to beam some pics to my friend's xperia ion, nothing gap happened. There wasn't any problem with the settings of the both devices.

And I haven't removed the screen guardon the back, that came with the device. Is it somewhere near the place where the imei number is written on the protector, which is a bit thick. So do you think that is causing a problem.
[Nexus 4 General] punitthereddevil:
Mine shows ac dude...
[Nexus 4 General] oSandmaNo:
Sometimes it shows USB. If you see charging is abnormally slow check it out.

USB time it takes 4+ hours to charge. Otherwise less than 3 hours
[Nexus 4 General] josinpaul:
For applying the wet screen guard you can use 3 or 4 drops of any clear baby shampoo mixed with 300 ml of water

---------- Post added at 08:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:39 AM ----------

Switch on NFC first. Settings >more>NFC. Bring back side of both devices together. Both device will vibrate. Now touch what ever you want to beam. NFC will work even with the protective guards on.

I brought the phone from Google Play store through my friend in US. Seems to have lot many issues for me.

I had a buzzing sound at the ear piece whenever I try to make a call at less than 50% of battery.

Everything hangs when the battery is less than 40% and even unlock would hang. If I connect charger it would work from the hanged place. Very odd.

Does anyone having this issue? Did you see your device working fine even in 20% of battery or less ?

I am about to return the phone to them but just wanted to make sure atleast the Indian version is correct? So I can order it here?
