Okay, I'll be the first noob.

1 - I'm getting this phone from the US where they use a 110 volt connection, whereas in India we use a 220 volt connection. What accessories should I get along with my phone to ensure my phone charges perfectly and does not spoil the battery?

2 - Will the charger of another phone (Samsung Galaxy 3. Not S3, just 3) work just fine with the Nexus 4? When I use a Blackberry charger on my Galaxy 3, it starts acting funny like sometimes the screen becomes unresponsive or it reboots. I'm asking because although the G3 and the Nexus 4 both use the same micro USB port, they're made by different companies.

3 - I read somewhere that this phone comes with a plastic/silicon cover or something to put so that a fall doesn't break the Gorilla glass. Is that true?

EDIT : 4 - I'm also using a portable charger (a small one). Link : http://theheatweb.com/milktube-portable-battery-charger-smartphone-led-light/. I can continue to use this, right?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] undercover:
1. Just use any AC charger that has USB output. If you encounter touch problems, try different charger.

2. See 1

3. Haven't seen anything like that mentioned yet.

hello, in t mobile stores sell the nexus 4 without contract? I will come to New York on vacation from Italy and I would like to take them, also, you know how much is this phone?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eep2378:
1) use the charger that comes with the phone and you should be fine.

3) all phone comes with plastic/tape like covering but it's just part of the normal covering/packaging. If you want you can leave it on to protect the device until you get a proper case, etc

What's the best, cheapest GSM plan? I looked at StraightTalk and saw they had some pretty unlimited plan for $45/month, but I thought I heard T-Mobile offered something better, idk though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KidCarter93:
For those in the UK who want to know what prices they can get it for, check this thread out.

I've been approved by Snowflake. Jealous? :p
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eep2378:
I think ST is probably the cheapest, but there are some drawbacks(i.e you get flagged/possibility of them canceling your service if you use too much data). The odds of this actually happening are very rare. Many users have used ST and used like 5gb monthly with nary a warning. Also if you get good tmobile coverage in your area than you may wanna consider it. The N4 is capable if using tmobiles 42mbps 4g service. So you may get faster data speeds with Tmo vs ST.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctowne:
If you get good T-Mobile service where you are then get their prepaid $30 a month plan with 100 minutes, unlimited text, and 5GB of unthrottled "4G". Also, ST does have the option to run on either AT&T or T-Mobile if you need more minutes or something.

I think it is 500 dollars plus tax,which is about 10% in NYC. If you don't have a US credit card you might not be able to buy it from Play Store and ship to the hotel. You could try it with Nexus 7 now.

Have a couple questions about sim card compatibility. I have a galaxy vibrant on bell in Canada, I have already been scouring this site and others, and have just purchased a sim card cutter on amazon. But I do have a couple of other questions, will I get 4g HSPA+ speeds with my currant contract (galaxy vibrant is 3g)? And will I have to make any changes with bell or on the new phone itself? Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppero196:
If you buy it from play store it will be GSM and unlocked.

Nexus 4 supports HSPA+ but not LTE, so it will work
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] undercover:
If phone bands are compatible with your network (which they should be) and your network offers hspa+ you shouldn't have a problem. Easily searchable. BTW, hspa+ is NOT 4G, you guys in North America have been victims of marketing.

I would preorder my phone, but I am afraid of the border customs (cause I need to pay tax).

I was thinking of buying via a fellow RC from US. He orders it from Play Store and sends it to me.

But if the police finds out, my phone could end as public property :(

If I want to do legal way and pay the 400% tax then the phone will be mine, but expensive)

Also it would be too expensive if I want to buy it via my carrier
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] kucsi:
Hi,

I have some annoying experience with my A701 and I am curious whether I am alone with this. I have planned to use my Iconia to store my notes and to use for handwriting. I have tried several styluses an applications but what I have found that when I writing with a stylus there is a huge lag in response. The lag is so frustrating that is almost impossible to use the device for handwriting. I am using Lecture notes and Adonit Jot Pro and running rooted 4.1.1.First i was sore that it is a common issue with all styluses and tablets but I have tried my friends samsung and i was totally suprised. It works perfectly. The words and the lines on the screen followed my stylus and all the characters appeared realtime.No lag. Is there any advice what could i do?

I really appreciate Your comments.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Pivi:
Lag

I have the same problem, not only with handwriting but also using several other apps and games.

Isn't this supposed to be a monster of a tablet? Tegra 3, gig ram, huge resolution.. Seems like Acer just packed it full of HW and crossed their fingers for everything to work..

I've got a stock A700, does it get better/quicker with a custom rom?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] kucsi:
I am pretty satisfied with other apps but this issue is unbelievable. This is my first tablet and after several try with different styluses I really thought it is a common issue with tablets. But when I have tried my friend tablet I was shocked. It seems that the screen is not responsive enough. I have to push the stylus very hard, and even in that case some letters appears correctly some not. And above that there is a lag. :(:(:( Very disappointing :(, and I feel as if I am alone with this issue :(
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nmesisca:
I dont think Tegra 3 was supposed to be pushing so many pixels.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] kiteman44:
it seems tegra3 could support screen resolution to 2048x1536 (LCD), 1920x1200 (CRT) (n/a here) and 1920x1080 for HDMI. (dual display controller at same time)

source : nvidia.com
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Chris0706:
Simple answer, its the touchscreen.. look at all those other responibility problems with this screen.. maybe the Tegra3 is a little bit underpowered, too, but you could get rid of it by using a custom rom with oced CPU/GPU, but that wouldnt help with the touchscreen :/

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mg2195:
Doesn't exist....there's no step by step guide for anything as it varys slightly from device/ROM...not every ROM requires the same exact steps to be ported...a lot of the things you just have to experiment and find what works...the guides are meant to get you a starting point/something to work with -all that exist are general guides

Those first two xda result are the best guides you'll find...if you want to develop you have to be able to figure things out on your own...guides are great for reference...but that's it...

Im a senior in highschool that knew nothing about android a year and a half ago....so anyone can learn...but you have to put the effort in to figure things out yourself...and I'm not even a "smart" kid...I barely pull off a 3.0 GPA, took algebra 1 twice as i didn't pass the first year (currently struggling in algebra 2), in a intermediate English class (not workshop...but below a CP class) -basically what I'm saying is it doesn't take a genius, just the will and want to figure things out...I started off just adding apks to other people ROMs just for fun...then I moved onto adding tweaks others had created...then I moved onto zip porting (what you want to do) then onto source....it took about a year to get where I'm at now...

Quote from my math teacher "if you ask a question I'm not gonna spoon feed you, I'll ask you questions to get you on the right track, but its up to YOU to figure the problem out, its up to YOU to look at notes or the book. YOU have to take responsibility for your learning, not me" so I won't spoon feed you, and no one else will...we will try and get you on the right track...but in the end its up to you to figure things out...we won't do all the work for you
[RAZR HD General] Orphee:
Hello,

After the unlock of the bootloader via Motorola Website, you have probably noticed the M logo has been replaced by a Warning message...

Here is the solution to restore M logo :

Extract the file in attachement in the same folder as fastboot, you will find "logo.bin" file.

Enter in Fastboot mode :

- Shutdown your phone

- Push and maintain VOL DOWN and press POWER to boot your phone (A black screen with white lines should appear)

- Plug USB Cable

Flash the M Logo with fastboot :

- fastboot flash logo logo.bin (success message should appears in the DOS windows)

- Unplug USB cable

- Press POWER and the phone will shutdown

- Start your phone with long press on POWER and check your M Logo.

Bye

I'm trying to assist a non-technically inclined friend to troubleshoot her battery life issues. She's on a stock JB Vodafone ROM, and she lives a long way away, so me just going to see her and rooting the phone is a no-no.

Her battery dropped from 99% - 47% overnight, with the main culprits being android system, followed by device idle and cell standby quite a long way behind. The phone had wifi and mobile data switched off during this period.

I know android system is an umbrella for all sorts of processes that go on in the background, but since she isn't rooted I can't use Better Battery Stats to drill down and try and find the cause of her wakelocks. She doesn't have many apps installed at all, mainly just what came with the phone.

Is there some general stuff that I can do to try and eliminate any obvious causes of this battery drain? Any suggestions at all would be welcomed :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wraith404:
Install gsam from play and let it run over night. Use it to inspect apps, but then toggle the view from battery drain to number of times waking device. Typical culprits are sync with numerous accounts and location services. Google Now has been know to beat up location services. Next install air push detector and remove any apps it detects.

Hope this helps.

I used to have that problem

When I upgraded my phone to JB i had to charge my phone twice a day, so I decided to do a factory data reset and now my battery life is about 20 hours, I'm installing one by one all the apps that I had and until now I haven't had that problem anymore.

You could tell her to do the same, and let me know if it worked. Good luck!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HallwayStone:
I had the exact same problem, but on ICS. I figured that Fast Dormancy was the culprit, keeping my phone awake for almost half the time it was out of charger. It solved itself on Jelly Bean, but I read a tip somewhere that might help.

1. Remove battery for about a minute. Re-insert battery.

2. When phone is fully charged, ONLY remove it from charger when screen is on and phone unlocked. If not, then remove battery and start over.

Dont know if this helps, but give it a try. Worth a shot. If not, factory reset is an option. Better Battery Stats is also good for checking wich processes keep the phone awake.

So far as I can tell, the only bugs are that you MUST disable screen off animation or you will hot boot every time you press the power button or the screen times out. Also, hardware rotation switch does NOT work.
