if still u cant decide what to use u can choose the below according to ur needs : :laugh:

1. For Dandruff free screenguard use HEAD & SHOULDER

2. For GERMS free screenguard use dettol liquid handwash.

3. For smooth and silky screenguard use L'oreal shampoo.

4. For Keeping ur screenguard cool u can use NAVRATAN OIL (thanda thanda cool cool). it will keep ur device cool in summers.

the best I've got is 4 and a half hour of on screen time. and I didn't charge the phone in between. :thumbup:

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

depends on what is his usage and what is your budget. Phones you mentioned fall in 16k to 26k price range. It's upto you how much money you wanna shell out.

hey guys pl help fr my prev questions.. tell me how do i backup stock kernel and recovery thru twrp? wer is d option? and i tried installng franco milestone it said installing file under dat were optns backup, wipe data , wipe cache n dalvick cache. wat to do? pl help
[Nexus 4 General] varshil:
His usage wont be much.. Just great battery life is needed
[Nexus 4 General] eddy4823:
Samsung or Micromax it is then.
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
wait for 1 day everything will go.
[Nexus 4 General] jithuelad:
Yes exactly. If it goes below 10 and u don't have a charger to charge then switch it off. That's better. Even if you faced RLD due to low battery just charge it with a powerful charger (<=1.5mah) for a hour it will surely wake up.
[Nexus 4 General] atulalvenkar:
Canvas is the only phone on that list that has A7 cpu. So it's performance won't be as good as the others.

Micromaxx is known to use old CPU/GPU to keep prices low. So if performance is important leave it out.
[Nexus 4 General] simratcs:
Xperia ZR/ZL seems pretty good choice.
[Nexus 4 General] arunkr:
Which option should I select in goo manager install twrp recovery?

EDIT: NEVER MIND.. Got it
[Nexus 4 General] saintsinner25:
Something like a note 2 charger right? (it gives out 2.0mah)
[Nexus 4 General] RohanM:
Xperia ZR.... :good:
[Nexus 4 General] arunkr:

[Nexus 4 General] eddy4823:
It's a terminal emulator. Already present in Apps section in Cyanogen ROMs or Hybrid ROMs having CM.

How to make sure the list of drivers are installed? I checked my device manager on PC. When phone is connected , it shows as Samsung Android phone in the device manager list. I installed the drivers using Toolkit.

[Nexus 4 General] agent6:
Can anyone tell me what are the ways to test if you get a superior nexus 4

I have been seeing lots of posts about 305k, 306k, cpu bindings. So are there other aspects that i can test? Also how to tell if my phone is the 305 or 306 one, and what difference does it make?
[Nexus 4 General] RohanM:
305 = manufactured in MAY

306 = June..

No other difference.
[Nexus 4 General] nithin1992:
I'm in a dilemma as to which phone to go for. I'd really really appreciate if you'd take a minute to post your opinion. For now, I have decided to go for Nexus 4 or Sony Xperia SP.

Price Difference:Xperia SP is ~2000 cheaper than the Nexus 4 here

The price difference isnt really my concern though, I might as well put in a few extra bucks to get the best phone, if necessary. Ive researched quite and here are some stuff i really need clarifications about the Nexus 4:

What's the battery backup I can get out of Nexus 4[approx of Standby,SOT[browsing],SOT[gaming, say, subway surfers] with custom rom+kernel and stock? [Standby=No Data,Wifi,Bluetooth,GPS]

Is the back glass very prone to shattering? Assume it falls on the ground from waist height, is it sure to crack?

Do you think the Nexus 4 would be outdated in terms of hardware hence i should be waiting for the Nexus 5? Here in India, Nexus 4 launched recently so I'm assuming the nexus 5 might take quite some time as well compared to the US release

I really don't mind compromising on the camera or the expandable memory however on the SP the lesser 1gb ram does set me back as I'm not too sure how big this lack of ram would affect the phone in the future. Is the lack of 2gb ram a deal breaker for future updates/appa/games?

The only concern about the nexus 4 is the battery. If it can last me for an hour of music on loud speaker with screen off, an hour of browsing,1-2 hours of light gaming and standby for ~9hrs(with data enabled) id go for it. But I don't know if it can give me so much battery backup either. So if you can help me out, thatd be great

IF you do know some stats about battery in the Xperia SP, do put it out as well.

The major advantage i hear about the Nexus is direct updates from google but aren't other phones like the Xperia SP likely to get custom Rom's with the latest software? So what's the big advantage in it?
[Nexus 4 General] RohanM:
Nexus 4 all the way... other best alternative would be Xperia ZR.
[Nexus 4 General] simratcs:
One more thing i want to ask is that when i will revert back to stock with help of toolkit on,it will revert my phone to which build no. JDQ39 or JDQ39E ?

please help [MENTION=3015498]mor_1228[/MENTION] !
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
the build which u will download bro can flash that nothing to worry about. u have option to download. it will download JDQ39 but u will never wan to go to stock bro.

use carbon rom or slim rom.
[Nexus 4 General] simratcs:
yes i'm thinking to flash PA 3.6 !

Thank u for clearing all my doubts !

and is there any difference between 39/39E
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
don't know about the difference bro never searched for it. I got 39 build in my mobile when I purchased it so I guess these builds hardly make a difference. I suggest u try every rom here and choose what suits u.

carbon rom and franco kernel is best.

and in the end if u don't like any custom rom then only go for stock.

I purchased N4 because of its easy customisation not for stock.

cheers bro enjoy ur N4 do keep coming here.
[Nexus 4 General] saintsinner25:
Carbon rom seems to be quite popular these days.whats so special about it?
[Nexus 4 General] simratcs:
did u bought it from India ?
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
fast, stable has all features in it.

yes delhi
[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
Any one interested in helping me.? I have these apps framaroot,bootunlocker and flashify goomanager

I have installed them all then opened framaroot installed superuser and super su app using gandalf and then unlocked using bootunlocker. Next I installed goo manager and it asked to go i menu and install twrp. If I install twrp how do I backup current recovery and stock rom and kernel? this is a very imp que if I want to revert back to stock.

Please guide me with twrp indetail what all to select to backup.

Can directly flash radios and kernels if I am rooted(won't b installing any custom rom)

Please reply in detail.

TIA :):good:
[Nexus 4 General] codeknight11:
Guys, does Matr1x kernel work with PAC? Which version should i flash? I suppose should CM version as PAC is based indirectly on CM sources.

Well tried it right now on my s3..doesnt seem all that special.too clustered for me.happy with cm10.1
[Nexus 4 General] arunkr:
I flashed Franco m3 but can't c the option for under volt in incredicontrol?..

---------- Post added at 07:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

Use flashify to backup stock recovery and stock kernel..

And for backing up stock ROM make a backup from twrp..select backup option and inside that u get sub options ..select the ones u want..

Don't forget to wipe cache and dalvik cache whenever flashing kernel,baseband,e.t.c..

In the case of custom Roms wipe data also
[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
Dude I backed up my recovery and kernel, wen I tried to flash Franco kernel M3 thru flashify it gave me a option (twrp) wipe cache,dalvick cache i selected it then clicked yup it installed and asked me to reboot after rebooting it gave me a error with android and a exclamation mark, What to do?

If I want to flash radios what should i wipe? before or after. pl rep in detail.. thanx bro. :)
[Nexus 4 General] RohanM:
Any one ? :rolleyes:
[Nexus 4 General] arunkr:
First did u install twrp from goo manager?..if u have done that wipe cache and dalvik cache ...then install zip from SD card..choose the kernel zip file..press reboot after that..

For flashing baseband wipe cache and dalvik before flashing..
[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
yes i installed twrp from goo manager..rebooted.

now wen i install dat zip file thru flashify it says locatiin then file name then says install thru twrp and give three option wipe data,cache, n dalvick cache. i selected data n cache n then clikced yup it installed n asked to reboot n then it gave me that error. how do i go in twrp what buttons should i press to go in actual recovery? and after flashing do i need to wipe data n cache or before installing d zip?
[Nexus 4 General] arunkr:
Go to goo manager..press reboot into recovery..don't touch flashify..inside twrp u will get options to do whatever u want... Before flashing wipe
[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
Sry bro no help.did d same it said it will ask for root and reboot to recovery i said yes it rebooted and gave me error wid android exclamation mark and under that was written No Command. what to do? :(
[Nexus 4 General] arunkr:
U told me u installed twrp from goomanager right?..tell me how u did it...??.the steps
[Nexus 4 General] Rohit02:
See I had went to twrp thread in original section. there they said dwnlod goomanager n then go in options n select install open recovery script i cliked n it installed n den it installed twrp2.5.0 thats it.. i also have d apk if u have sme other plan in case
[Nexus 4 General] arunkr:
Did it finish download and installation ??..well I followed the same steps. it worked for me..
[Nexus 4 General] xpress7:
Congrats :D That's really lucky.. Hope it will reach you soon...

I wish I also did this, instead of believing in stupid service like cart2india.
[Nexus 4 General] vsajan:
@congrats brar.arsh

@ exactly ...wasting our time believing cart2india :(
[Nexus 4 General] brar.arsh:
You people better order now and check your luck.. :D

BTW this is a Borderlinx order, now time to check them!!!
[Nexus 4 General] karanits:
the day Nexus 4 sold out in minutes, I had this feeling that cart2india will not be able to fulfill the demand. they were publicized by all the Indian tech blogs as if eBay itself is selling it! Now I want to all those blogs publish there failure too. IF and WHEN they truly fail to provide. I personally think everyone should cancel.

You all are forced to acknowledge that you have received the order. The seller is emailing one weird email after the other from his bottom! The only appeal you will get is if the phone is defective, which will not work as you will not be able to prove that phone was not received.

The above is a WORST CASE SCENARIO. I generally go by that.
[Nexus 4 General] atulalvenkar:
Lucky !! I ordered on 1st Dec and nothing has moved as yet. Let us know how borderlinx works out. I have ordered through borderlinx too.
[Nexus 4 General] vsajan:
ya its 100% correct what you said :) brother

will our money will be in safe hands , if we go against the eBay policy ? trusting cart2india & going as per them ?
[Nexus 4 General] brar.arsh:
Surely I will.. :D
[Nexus 4 General] xpress7:
Yes vsajan, but we don't have much options left now. Its already late. :crying:

I think we are the people in India who ordered nexus 4 first.. and we will be the people who receives it last :rolleyes:

I said proudly to my friends that I ordered Nexus 4 and getting it in December. Now I don't know how to face them :silly:

Stupid worst cart2india. If many people are getting it delivered to their US addresses, why these stupid cart2india people are not

able to ship a single device even after 3 weeks of launch??

I Can't order now, that stupid cart2india bllocked my money. Don't have enough credit limit to order another..

Even if I cancel my order now I don't know when I will get my money back. :(
[Nexus 4 General] yogeshmha:
how much did it total cost u

including shipping customs charges etc.. in INR

---------- Post added at 03:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:55 PM ----------

[Nexus 4 General] vsajan:
ha ha same here my frdz, my brother is marking fun of me will you get phone by 2014 not even 2013 rofl.... :P :crying:

i work in google the worst thing i did is even so i got direct access to us sever :( to order it from play store....but stupidly i went through cart2india :crying: now waiting since ages for the phone :crying:
[Nexus 4 General] atulalvenkar:
Don't you guys get free nexus devices? I have a friend who got Galaxy nexus free when it was launched.
[Nexus 4 General] vsajan:
its a separate department who get these type of stuff of free gifts & all not all ..

the department i work we get awarded with money & Google certificates.:crying:
[Nexus 4 General] xpress7:
Google certificates ?? What you people will do with those google certificates :D

I think you can buy one from some person on the other department. Have you tried?
[Nexus 4 General] _KP:
thanks a lot dude :)...gonna get it from HSG :D
[Nexus 4 General] vsajan:
no brother most of the ppl who work in Google are not crazy about phones like us :P they are like 24/7 job job job ...its better to be away from those type of kids :D:victory:

no i haven't tried ...if we ask managers they may or mayn't arrange .. haven't tried brother ...
[Nexus 4 General] brar.arsh:
there is a thanks button under very post, better use that from now one.. ;)
[Nexus 4 General] yogeshmha:
hahahaha :D
[Nexus 4 General] xpress7:
Then try bro, if many people are not crazy about phones then you can get one easily.

BTW what are google certificates? Any useful for you??
[Nexus 4 General] vsajan:
only useful for future to apply for any high end salary jobs

[Nexus 4 General] punitthereddevil:
Guys I recently rooted my nexus 4...I have done all sorts of flashing in my previous phone,galaxy ace...but there was no risk of losing any data since it had an SD card...but I dunno about what happens if I flash stuff on the nexus since there's no obvious separation between system data and user data, I'm scared I might lose everything I have on the phone if I flash something...

So can u please tell me in what case will I lose data and in what case I won't...? Flashing ROMs,mods,boot animations,etc...
[Nexus 4 General] mor_1228:
only when u unlock relock bootloader u loose internal memory or when u erase internal memory in rest of the cases of flashing roms,mods,kernel etc u wont loose any data. i do this everyday dont worry.
[Nexus 4 General] NishantM:
Flashing ROMs via CWM/TWRP and flashing img files via fastboot manually will not affect the internal memory. But if you flash factory ROM using toolkits (WUG's Toolkit does it), the internal memory is erased.

It is one week old with bill and Google bumper along with it... 23k
[Nexus 4 General] codeknight11:
The downside of buying online is that you cant check the Serial No. or batch no. of the phone. Sometimes people offer to sell the phone for a cheaper price just because its from an old batch. Who knows homeshop18 *may* have an old piece in stock with them. Spending extra 1000/- Rs. while buying from a local shop will atleast help you acertain that you purchased a newer model. S/N should start wid 3**K (Usually 305K or 306K)

---------- Post added at 10:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 AM ----------

I thought they must be stolen or smuggled so cheap !! :D
[Nexus 4 General] codeknight11:
Newer pieces have nubs (barely visible) at the bottom which lift the phone up a bit when kept on a flat surface so as to allow speakers to play louder music (you get the clue). Also, most of the new pieces are faster than previous models (better cpu/gpu configuration).
[Nexus 4 General] OrrPenn18:
Huh? In what sense faster? You mean the binning? They haven't changed the hardware assembly nor the assembly line. Imho, the only difference is the nubs and camera alignment.

Could you shed some more light on the topic? :)
[Nexus 4 General] mohitgalaxy3:
Forget about beats, I have the cheapest one of them and it costs around 6000.

Usually ROM threads recommended a triple wipe,I.e, data(factory reset), cache and dalvik...so should I do the factory reset part...? Will I lose data if I do that...?
[Nexus 4 General] codeknight11:
Yep. I meant binning. No hardware changes. Minor but significant and important changes. Dont remember all. Gsmarena made a post about it long back.

---------- Post added at 12:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 PM ----------

Nope. You lose data from internal sd only when you wipe 'usb-otg' using twrp.

[Nexus 4 General] rajat_red:
So I've been reading all the responses to my questions on rooting. Thanks everyone. :highfive:

I've finally come to the conclusion that I'm going to root using Framaroot. So please, just verify my steps one last time before I take the plunge.

1. Install Framaroot and root the device.

2. Download BootUnlocker for Nexus Devices by SegV from the playstore and unlock my bootloader.

3. Download ROM Manager and use it to flash the latest Clockworkmod recovery, and I'm good to go.

Are my steps correct or am I missing out on something? :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] oSandmaNo:
Yes. Select gandalf exploit in famaroot while rooting. ROM manager or goo manager should do it. I don't like ROM manager because downloading recovery through it is slow and accidental touches outside the small box cancels the download.
[Nexus 4 General] rajat_red:
Thanks man! Going ahead with it.
