Yeah since morning I am using 4.3, you can upgrade, mostly changes has been done in kernel.

Worth is depend upon your definition, mostly problems I was facing with 4.2.2 has been fixed so I like the update.
[Nexus 4 General] navino87:
My N4 is on stock ROM / rooted / CWM recovery.

No 4.3 OTA yet.. Just in case if I get OTA in coming days, can i proceed with the update process or should i unroot before updation??
[Nexus 4 General] adidas007:
You wont get the OTA.
[Nexus 4 General] ridhi:
Unroot with stock recovery if u want the OTA.
[Nexus 4 General] rak21:
I am since afternoon. Most of the fixes are internal, we may not notice. The touch response has improved, and u'll surely love auto complete in the stock dialer. If you also need a working root immediately then its better to wait as there isn't a proper root yet. else its good :good: :cowboy:

I had put my n4 on charging before i slept cause it was only 25% it was juiced up till 100% right now i just did a normal reboot and the battery feel down to 94% :| what could be the problem? I'm on the latest CM nightly with the stock kernel.

so nothing major right?
[Nexus 4 General] josinpaul:
yup, quiet normal....some times after so much flashing, battery status file gets corrupted and it returns a wrong reading. Not a big issue though. It will settle after 2 to 3 days. Oh and check for any wake locks.

Tried above, still don't have OTA pushed to my nexus 4.

My phone is completely stock, not even rooted.

My baseband version is .54

and Build number is: JDQ39E

has anyone got the OTA as yet?
[Nexus 4 General] josinpaul:
Just have Patience. Google will not push the update to all at the same time. They have to consider the server load,band width etc. they've done the same to the map app if you remember. So wait.
[Nexus 4 General] mandhir.s.bajwa:
thanks for the prompt reply. I've recently moved to Nexus 4 from Motorola Defy. And I was into all rooting, installing kernel and different roms on it. tried almost all available roms on xda for Defy. But in case of Nexus 4, all seems to be little confusing. It was pretty easy in Motorola Defy and the threads are very neat. Here i found a lot of threads talking about flashing, rooting, Roms, fastboot, adb etc etc, but could not find even a single guide which has all the steps mentioned in details. Like mostly they say to get into fastboot and run the command, but how to get there is what confuses me.

Have been reading all threads since 2 weeks now, and i'm still not sure how to move forward.

I also read, few people from India have upgraded to office 4.3 but I could not find the details steps they used.

Anyways, I'll keep an eye, and if someone can point me towards as how to move to 4.3 without loosing data, I would be very thankful. (I'm little impatient types:laugh:)
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
u have to set up adb and fast boot :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2277112

if u want 4.3 then read carefully before asking anything and download this toolkit :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1995688

original 4.3 :

https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/occam-jwr66v-factory-08d2b697.tgz

now the steps :

Put the original occam-jwr66v-factory-08d2b697.tgz in Google_Nexus_4_ToolKit\put_google_factory_image_here .

Activate Developer Options menu by entering on Settings / About phone and pressing 7 times on Build number.

Activate ADB on your phone from Settings / Developer Options by checking the Android Debugging.

Reboot into Recovery Mode - CWM or TWRP.

Wipe the /system /data /cache /dalvick from CWM or TWRP before using Nexus 4 Toolkit.

After that reboot into bootloader, open Nexus 4 Toolkit and use the 13 option (4.2.2).

Now use 9 option, select yes and when ask for delete the user data select no.

That's it! You have installed 4.3 without loosing your data from the phone.

Please note that after this procedure you will lose CWM or TWRP, but don't worry you can reinstall it from the Nexus 4 Toolkit selecting 13 and after that 6 option.
[Nexus 4 General] sohamssd:
I'd say stay away from toolkits, they are for noobs and don't let you know what's actually happening. Just keep researching, one day you'll root it by yourself. Its not difficult at all.
[Nexus 4 General] mittal.apoorv:
the above method is not for receiving OTA. its for the guy who was getting error message on updating apps from playstore :)

[Nexus 4 General] saintsinner25:
i mean,no toggles,no profiles,no expanded desktop mode,no theme chooser,no LED customization,no torch it feels so weird to use stock now! i know there are alternate apps to all this but why use apps when you can just have them built into the framework? i'm surprised google has never thought about adding toggles atleast.yes they came up with the quick settings panel but it's not customizeable and works more like shortcuts to the settings pane of the selected toggle.
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
exactly righ and yeah those quick settings panel is there but thats a pain 4-5 click to do a task whereas in power widgets u need to do only 2.

whenever i install a new rom 1st thing i check is power widgets then i move forward otherwise i just simply remove that rom and go to another.

power widget is must for me in any custom rom.
[Nexus 4 General] geekovary:
I am on Voda, PA 3.69 ROM, with FrancoMilestone 3 kernel, i am facing frequent call drops, i.e call disconnects randomly. Did not happen in the stock, seems a radio issue, suggestions and download links please!
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
call drops are not always related to radio and roms. nowdays telecom operators are becoming worse than ever they charge u like hell and then u get all sort of these problems.

Before blaming Rom or radio i will suggest u do 1 thing install any other rom like cayogen or any other but stable only and radio u can flash .33 and .54 dont go for .84 so early first try with those 2 and observe them both for 1 day.

if still u get call drops then call on 111(vodafone cc ) 121(airtel cc) and beat the hell out of them.

for radio use this :
[Nexus 4 General] geekovary:
Downloading .84 & .54. The reason i said could be a ROM issue is, i did not face the issue while being on STOCK. Nonetheless let me give these a try and get back. Btws, i am on VODA, i meant VODAFONE and their service until i had started using this ROM seemed fair enough, still must admitt even on STOCK, i used to have connection issues, while another voda sim no my other phone would work fine,
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
well bro i said dont go for .84 as some people said it works better with 4.3 only.

so try .33 and .54
[Nexus 4 General] geekovary:
I thought of trying .84, just flashed it, also downloaded .54 , will revert if I face issues. Thanks for the concern buddy.

JDQ39E was never pushed as OTA by google. It was out of box for India only.

[Nexus 4 General] RohanM:
Or u can flash factory Image of 4.3 ... directly.
[Nexus 4 General] mandhir.s.bajwa:
i suppose that will delete all system data?

I was trying sideload so that i don't loose data
[Nexus 4 General] RohanM:
You can bypass data wipe.. :angel:

Prerequisite you must have your PC configured to support the fastboot command and you must have CWM or TWRP installed [ Only if u don't want to lose any of your data other wise flash stock recovery ]

Enter below commands in fastboot

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-mako-makoz20i.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radius-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.0.1700.84.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Tip - Give Enter after each command.

After the last reboot you select the option to start in CWM recovery or TWRP and reformat the cache and the dalvik cache, reboot and expect up Android 4.3 ￼

Enjoy...
[Nexus 4 General] mandhir.s.bajwa:
quick question, can cwm be installed on locked bootloader. as unlocking it will remove all data
[Nexus 4 General] kalpik:
Without unlock, fastboot doesn't work. So you have to unlock bootloader.
[Nexus 4 General] king231:
Okay now how to flash the 4.3 update without unlocking and rooting?
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
I don't think u can flash update without unlocking bootloader. Bootloader need to be unlocked to flash 4.3 firmware
[Nexus 4 General] kalpik:
Wait for OTA.
[Nexus 4 General] king231:
Not even a single way? Because on my tablet (Asus transformer infinity tf700t), I just need to unzip a package downloaded from their site, copy into the root of sd or internal storage. Then a notification appears showing that an update is ready to install.

I was wondering if there was a similar way.
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
I wish it could have been this way but no you have to unlock bootloader or wait for ota
[Nexus 4 General] king231:
That should be long enough.
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
I can wait as I don't need stock rom I hate it. I am waiting for slim bean team or carbon developers to build a custom rom. Till then I will wait.

Nexus 4

Australia Google play store finished with stocks in 2 hours.

UK Play store finished with stocks in 20 mins.

US Play store finished with stocks in few mins.

Potential buyers frustrated all over the world. Why????

Coz Google was not able to handle Server load.

The guy who was ready with his page to buy for me never even got a chance. Gr8 going, google!!! If you cant handle server loads --- question is who can?????

I am wondering if Google wanted to emulate the Apple "sell out" hype. If so, Google then grow up!!!!

I wanted the Nexus 4 so badly I am getting it one way or the other - just booked mine on E Bay. This sucks.
[Nexus 4 General] premsrj:
No subsidy in India

I don't have any relatives in US, so my only option is to wait until LG releases it or buy from eBay. If LG is going to release it in december, a 32Gb model would be out by then. The main question in my mind is price.

Google is actually subsidizing the phone for $349 in the play store, in the hopes that people will buy content from the store like books, music, movies, apps etc. They can make up the money they lose from the phone by that.

But remember in India we only have apps. No music, movies or books. So if Google subsidizes the phone, they won't be able to make up for it in content sales. Thus they are no likely to subsidize it, and it will end up costing about the same as the Optimus G. If not more. Remember LG also wants to sell the Optimus G. If the Nexus 4 is being sold at a bargain, then who will buy the Optimus G. Considering all this, I am not too hopeful of the price.
[Nexus 4 General] abhi2889:
True.. It was very frustrating.. I was checking the page using proxy and my friend was checking in LA. Whenever i used to see 'add in cart', my friend couldn't see it and could not order :banghead: he tried so hard but couldn't see 'add in cart' once... :mad:

When i checked E bay last night after i got the depressing news from my friend that sites down, the number of items available was 9. Today morning after i order it was showing 6.

And now, surprise surprise E bay cart2india says more than 10 available.

Wonder how these guys are getting their stocks.

I know it makes more sense to wait till LG makes it available in India. But, like reported here in this thread there is a chance it will be at greater prices or worse it will never be launched.

Galaxy Nexus was never launched in India fully - why? Coz galaxy S3 was just round the corner. What if LG does the same with Optimus G just round the corner and as the sources that beast is worth no less than 35k.

Screw that!!!

This is interesting. LG cancelled Nexus launches in Netherlands and Belgium to cater to high demand elsewhere.

I wont be surprised if LG cancels/delays the India launch too.
[Nexus 4 General] Cantacid:
Thats what I did. I waited for 13th in US, downloaded a VPN software to scam the internet into thinking I was accessing the website in US and ordered it with my brother's card, to be delivered to his place so that he can get it along with him on 27th of this month. I will be a sweet owner of N4 this month, unless my brother likes it more than his iphone 4.

Its ironical how i could get an order complete while people in US itself with their 10mbps bandwidth lines couldn't get past the checkout. I had my brother and his wife trying it as well. None of them could get through, strange how google messed all this up big time.

But anyhow, yes the stock will be up way before 20th dec. Just make sure they dont run out of stock before you order it the next time it comes out, though even if they do, you would still have time to get it by 20th Dec.
[Nexus 4 General] ImSherlocked:
Guys, how much does ebay charge if we sell mobile on their site?
[Nexus 4 General] shishirasm:
I had posted a link from ebay few days back, that another guy had opened a pre order for 26,950 rs for 16gb & i had applied the 7% coupon that i got from ebay & able to order it for 25k... Some guys told me it was not good thing & critisized me for buying for 25k as they thought it will be available for less...

Now, i think i made the right decision... 25k is a great deal...

I think LG will skip launch in india like netherlands & belgium or it will just put it for a premium price like 30-35k...
