But I have searched all over Islamabad, and the only warranty available with nexus 4 is of brightex.
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
What is this coming on ptcl dsl for the last day. "Sign into wifi network"
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Ok the reason google apps were not working on ptcl was due to DNS. i have changed the DNS address and G Apps working now. :D
[Nexus 4 General] andy_andoid:
I had this notification coming when I connected to my wifi few days ago, then I read somewhere that it is the type of authentication some routers require that causes this message to pop up, but I was confused as this was not coming before that day. Yet I reset my router and then the problem was gone!
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Thanks for ur response.

I have not reset my router, i have changed the dns addresses and the problem solved.

Now i m not getting that notification and google apps r also working fine
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Call this guy... His name is Adnan Ahmed Soobedaar... He has a shop in Karachi Saddar... He's the person who I spoke to and he told me of this other warranty...

Just call him and tell him someone gave his number and ask what warranty the Nexus 4 is in... At least that way you can confirm there are others providing it...

How did you do that? Please tell , i have ptcl wifi modem
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
R google apps not working at ur end?

If not, change the dns settings.

U can call ptcl helpline 1218 n ask them the new dns server addresses, i cald them but they put me on hold for so long thay i disconnected. (He said i m goin to transfer ur call to tech deptt)

Anyway for the time being i m using these addresses and gapps r working fine on them.

Primary: 203.99.163.240

Alternate: 203.99.163.243

Go to connection properties, then select TCP/IP V4. And enter these settings there. Alternatively can b done in modem page settings.

[MENTION=3687104]DrunkFuX666[/MENTION] did u upgrade to 4.3? U were on PAC rom... Right? Have they launched pac (android 4.3)?
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
PAC has released 4.3...They are in Alpha right now..
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Okay. I upgraded to 4.3 when it was launched bt then came bk to cm 10.1. 4.3 had issues, like stuttering, lags etc.

Will try cm 10.2 (or any other 4.3 rom) after a week or month, when those roms release a bit stable versions.
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
I would say just wait for the things to get settled down.Right now there are so many issues with the release of 4.3...Root issues & Rom+Kernel related issues.Apps noncompatibility with 4.3 is a headache as well..
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
U r right. Thats y i immediately came back to CM 10.1.2. :P 4.3 has so many issues. I was reading somewhere that JSS version/release has some freeze issues.

I ll keep using 4.2.2 until things become fine.
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
That freeze issue has be resolved in PA...They are now using a hybrid of JSS & JWR to fix that freeze.But PA is a little bit Laggy compared to other Aosp Roms.Right now i am hoping here & there trying different 4.3 Roms :silly:
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Yeah i read that the title of PA, they t using jwr n jss hybrid.

Anyway i m not goin to try different 4.3 roms. :P will stick to cm 10.1. Working quite fine.

Cm 10.2 is also released bt it is still on initial stage, will wait for a bit stable version. Or perhaps key lime pie :P

---------- Post added at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:00 PM ----------

Have u tried cm 10.2 btw? How it is compared to othr 4.3 roms?
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
Haven't tried CM 10.2 yet but i am planning to try it soon..:fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Sorry for the late reply, but yea as skater mentioned, PAC 4.3 is up and nightlies have started after the first 4 alpha builds...

I'm currently on the 08/16 build, waiting for the 19th to build... But I can surely say its not even close to the stability of 4.2.2... Altho the PAC milestone was quite stable etc... Should give it a shot...

But having said that I'll also say there are lots of changes in the general 4.3 PAC UI that I'm really liking... Bugs that were in 4.2.2 seem to have been fixed, but things that were working in 4.2.2 are now broken... Lol ... But 4.3 stable enough for use... Not yet has any random reboots I would occasionally have on 4.2.2 so that's good...

Its just a matter of time of course, but I'm gonna stay on the 4.3 night lies... The PAC team is quite quick to merge fixes... Apparently Halo 2.0 is almost ready for merge as well... But if you have no issues staying on 4.2.2 then wait it out... Tho I don't recommend waiting till KLP :P

[Nexus 4 General] aeoveu:
The freezing is an aosp bug that was introduced with the JSS (or whatever its called) branch. That's why PA reverted some fixes to the other 4.3 branch.

OK. Is it me, or is halo a little gimmicky to use? the multi-window mod is really nice, but the thing that puts me off (from PA's ROM) is that the signal colors and signal bars aren't clear enough (like in stock android, the gray and blue are clearly visible and you can distinguish both easily...in PA, the colors are so similar its not always easy to discern without focusing on the signal.

That's stopping me from using it (the color differentiation). Unless, I try the kernel with the stock colors...

sent from my mini tractor
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
You always have the option of flashing a custom kernel :)
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
I agree I think halo is really pointless... In the beginning it was a cool concept, but the fact that the whitelist and blacklist never worked properly for me and everything that happened on my phone , from a download, to a phonecalls to a screenshot, would appear in halo... Pretty much stopped me using it... I only turn it on when gaming if I remember to do so... But then I rarely get time to game anymore...

But people are saying 2.0 is supposed to be crazy... Iv not checked it out myself... But hopefully it will bring more functionality...

As for colors... Again as skater said, you can use different kernels with stock colors... Or use Franco or faux along with their Enhancer tool apps... Both of them have the presets for stock colors if you want to apply those...

And altho they are both paid apps... But we know Gold is not necessary for all that Glitters :P

Clear play store, play services, and Google services framework data from settings - apps and reboot

U will get connection error in play store at first but keep retrying till it loads
[Nexus 4 General] aeoveu:
Halo 2, from what I gather, let's you interact with widgets as well.

If only I could start apps in small screen from the notification shade... Or if Halo could act more like the notification shade (in terms of consistency when it comes to displaying/interacting with them), then I'll be a happy camper. That said, Halo is still alpha, so we don't really need to use it.

I tried PA with the stock kernel offered by PA (not the customized half-breed one - the stock colors). Strangely, when charging the phone, the display jittered a lot - from entering the menu, scrolling, pulling the notification shade and all... Perhaps it was a kernel issue cause I installed the same PA version with the stock kernel, and didn't face this problem.

As for the colors - the stock kernel improved the colors but didn't fix them. See the screenshot attached: the signal bar is a brighter shade of gray than it is in PA - THIS is what I don't like cause it reduces clarity.

Otherwise, thanks for your response, and the gold tip ;)

Just a slight update for you guys on the Pacman 4.3 Nightlies...

I just flashed the latest 08/20 nightly after being on the 08/16 nightly and tho its been just a few hours since I flashed, the improvement is phenomenal...

I think most of the bugs which caused me to say stay on 4.2.2 have already been ironed out, halo 2.0 has also been merged if interested... But its extremely smooth now... No complaints at all...

i couldnt think of getting any other phone after my samsung galaxy nexus was snatched - just got nexus 4 yesterday, i hope the issues with build qualities have resolved for LG over this period

---------- Post added at 03:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------

same here, bought with rightex warranty and checked yesterday, latest update available is 4.2.2

when i had samsung galaxy nexus, it had stock korean profile ( turns out there were 3 different stock profiles and mine was managed by samsung, not google ) so wouldnt get an update to 4.2, it re-flashed it with the american stock profile which was managed by google - got the updates right after updating -

Maybe nexus 4 has similar profile management ? - but i wouldnt go for 4.3 just yet, based on the reports coming in that nexus 4 users are experiencing bugs with 4.3 update
[Nexus 4 General] filthykid:

[Nexus 4 General] Hmmy 4444:
u in pakistan... n p.s if we hav our phones bootloader unlocked will we receive the update???
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Pakistan should have gotten the update as well...

And unlocked bootloader will still get the update... Even rooted will get the update I believe but you will lose root... If you have modified the ROM in any way then you won't get the update... AFAIK

And you will still get OTA update regardless of bootloader being unlocked or device being rooted.

Raza was pointing out people who got Nexus phones & they just don't play with their devices.I have seen such people myself.I believe that if you have net & you can search,then you can do anything with your phone..Once a shopkeeper was asking my friend Rs1000 for upgrading Htc One x to Jellybean.I was having a Nexus at that time & had no idea how to unlock it..Yet went on,did a little search & Flashed JB in One x for him..Rs 1000 for Rooting & Flashing a Rom,Rs 200 for installing Windows Xp etc etc.I hate such shopkeepers & those people who encourages them to do things like that.If you have net & you can search,go on & try the thing for yourself.Nothing wrong in getting stuck or asking questions.But just try at least once
[Nexus 4 General] Raza Qadri:
Thank God someone got my point.

Lol these shopkeeper troll people who want to get trolled.

A friend of mine who's completely iletrate about gadgets was going to give 500 to a shopkeeper to unlock his N9 or something that had meego OS

It only took me 2 minutes to unlock it for him (he didn't made a Nokia account that's why phone locked itself asked him to make account but he got paranoid )
[Nexus 4 General] faddyie:
Its just not abt trolling. Its the interest in one self to play with. Ppl who get nexus not necessarily play across the world. Now the competition among shopkeeper is such that they want to earn the whole day's earning from one customer.

Now its our responsibility to run such blogs that every Pakistani can easily search and get learned abt. Knowledge increases with sharing.

[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
If your a member of xda then you should know a nexus even IF stops getting official updates, will always be properly upgraded to the latest firmware due to the source code for everything... As long as the hardware can support it... And the N4 with quadcore and 2 gb ram is the same as the N5... Tho yes N5 is a better chipset, but still...

Theres only one reason Im gonna be trying to get the n5... Because my N4 was stolen... Other plausible reasons to upgrade is ONLY if there is a 32gb variant... Otherwise the N4 is perfect...

But yes if your getting 38k for it... In the words of the guy in the OLX add... "Sell itttttt!!!"

Keep in kind tho the Nexus⁴ is now out of stock and will probably NOT be restocked...

4.3 update procedure

Hi everyone.

I wanted to ask that is there any procedure to follow to safely update nexus 4 to 4.3 via OTA. I am getting that notification from a couple of months now, and my phone is completely stock- 4.2.2 stock rom, stock kernel, non-rooted etc. I have not done that update because I read on several forums that 4.3 is causing problems with nexus 4, and even in some cases it got bricked. So is it safe and worthwhile to update to 4.3 and are there any steps I should follow to do this?
[Nexus 4 General] razi914:
Nah , nothing bad happens, just flash a custom rom if you have any bugs with stock 4.3 ,
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
Nexus 4 would be getting updated for a long time.. That's confirmed.. Just look at its specs.. galaxy nexus & nexus 4 both had got a night & day difference between the hardware. But that's not the case when it comes to to nexus 4 and nexus 5

[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Hi bro, nice to see u back again. And how did ur phone get stolen? Just today one of my friends posted on fb, his iphone also got stolen. Big issue when expensive phones get stolen.

Anyway no i m not upgrading to n5. Will stick with n4. Cant find good reasons to upgrade my phone. N5 has same 2gig ram, 8mp cam. Yeah display and processor are better, bt even n4 is quite fast.

So will stick to n4 and cant wait to see android 4.4 on my n4 ;)
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Well actually my entire house was robbed unfortunately... This country is going to hell thanks to the people living and ruling over it...

And I agree, I wouldn't have upgraded from the N4 either if I still had it... Esp since the N4 was so much better looking than the N5... But the 32gb is a huge thing for me... 16gb has never been enough for me... Wish it had more ram or battery or an IR blaster... Oh well...
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Oh sad to know that bro. Hope the loss wasnt too big. May Allah protect all of us.

And yeah n5 wud b a good option for u. But i think it is going to b quite expensive in Pak esp in the start. But if u r getting it directly from US/Canada then it might b better.
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Did u guys see the price of nexus 5 on HomeShoping? Its 70K... :eek:

Too expensive...
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Hahaha... You forgot to mention thats the 16gb, not even the 32gb...

Well what can you expect from them... Their standard international market BS... For 70k shouldn't someone just get a Note 3 or Xperia Z1... Lol

If it weren't for the price of these nexus phones, no one would buy them... I know I wouldn't either... As its definitely not the best hardware out there...
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
OMG is it only for 16 GB :banghead:

Yeah i was also going to say that in my last post (bt then hit Submit button :P) that even note 3 with some good features is also selling at the same price.

Bt as far as hardware is concerned, i dont think nexus phones have bad hardware. Our N4 has better hardware than GS3. And except for display, imo n4 is better than GS3 (coz i used both). Plus u get fast updates on nexus devices.

But yeah in Pak it is selling for a very high price.
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
It's just the initial price which is the home shoppings way of saying 'hi' :D.. It'll probably fall down to 60k very soon..i wonder what would be the price of 32gb..i guess 90k lol
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
True. An initial price but still very high ... :D

But even if it comes to 60K that wud b too expensive. But if u can get it directly from US, it wud cost less. I guess the 16gig is selling for 349$ (not sure tho)...
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
I didn't say the nexus was Bad hardware... I'm just saying at the time it wasn't the Best hardware out there... Making a comparison to the s3 I don't think is right considering the s3 was launched about 7-8 months before the N4... The s4 launched just 3-4 months after the N4... Remember the s4 Google edition...?? Those were the real competitors of the N4... Not the S3... And having said that... Almost Every review I had read of s3 vs N4, they always said each have their stronger points but usually the s3 was the better phone Until price was taken into account... Which was true...

The S4 krait wasn't even the best quad core pricessor out there when the N4 was launched so... Tho yea 2gb ram was its biggest advantage... Which was evened out by the s3 i9305... Quad core with 2gb ram... Plus a much better camera screen and expandable storage... And then the better software integration of the N4 was what made it flow better than the s3... But throw on a custom ROM and it really solved allot of that ...

Anyway point being... The main thing tipping people towards the n4 was the price more than anything else... Unlocked off contract for very good specs but not the best , but best value for money... That's what helped it sell...

If the n5 camera is actually much better I think this will also do a great job... Tho its lost the excellent looks factor the n4 had...
[Nexus 4 General] Netuser:
I ordered 2 nexus 5, one in white and one in Black both 32 GB, but finally i was thinking of cancelling the order. But if the price is good in Pakistan I may keep them as I am coming next month.
