Hello,

With two games open plus 9 other apps i'm not noticing any slowdown. Multi tasking seems very good, certainly as good as expected.
[Nexus 4 General] GR36:
I find web pages load quicker. The voice recognition is much better. The screen is smooth and NO lag at all.

Its a little on the quiet side but so was the gnex.

I might go to o2 and get one but they always tell me they are locked to their network. I might get carphone warehouse to sell me one.

How much available ram to the system and how much is used on average? Thanks

1) When headphones are plugged in, and a notification comes through, does it also make a sound through the phone's speaker??

2) If you're browsing a webpage, for example, and a text message comes in, and you bring it up through the notification tray (while inside the browser), then click the back button when you're done with the text; does it go back to the home screen or the browser?

* These are my 2 biggest gripes with Android
[Nexus 4 General] casonswag:
That's deff good to hear
[Nexus 4 General] jacklebott:
1: I think it does come out the speaker

2: Yes, it should go back to the browser
[Nexus 4 General] InvalidUsername:
Nooo :(

Are you sure or do you just think that? Because I know on my gnex, one of the updates ruined it. Most apps do correctly go back to the browser, but the messaging app annoyingly goes to the home screen, regardless of what you were doing before.
[Nexus 4 General] arzbhatia:
Probably not as good as the Gnex huh?
[Nexus 4 General] jacklebott:
I don't know for sure about Jellybean, but it seems to work fine on Gingerbread. I'm just going on an educated guess, sorry.

* Please thank me. I had to do a lot of digging to find that :)

Okay, I realize that you're being polite and all, but please don't answer if you don't have the phone. I asked because I wanted to know if things have been improved since the Galaxy Nexus, and you give me an answer for gingerbread? Come on. Not cool
[Nexus 4 General] jacklebott:
I didn't realize it was an issue in the first place. Guess I'll just lurk a bit more then...

Sigh...I'm sorry, man. That was really harsh, and you seem like a very polite person :( I just need to get some sleep. Sorry about missing the first wave. Better luck next time.
[Nexus 4 General] arzbhatia:
OH MY GOD! Look at those blacks on AMOLEDs! Damn I love my Gnex so much! Thanks man! Thank you so much :D Not buying the N4 now for sure :P

Gonna get my hands on the N5 now :)
[Nexus 4 General] casonswag:
Wow your really not gonna buy a device just cause its not pitch black? Wouldnt the phone be lit up anyway if your using it
[Nexus 4 General] flafla:
HOLY CRAP i never knew the difference in black levels was that great.. @____@ that's insane.
[Nexus 4 General] USSENTERNCC1701E:
Actually you can see the jelly bean on screen buttons, that is with the screen on and the back light pretty high.

I just tried this on my SGS 4G, it's pretty impressive, turn the screen brightness all the way up, open the camera, then cover the lens. Not impressive enough that I wouldn't get an IPS display.
[Nexus 4 General] tixed:
Hi and thanks for your answers! Very informative.

One thing that trouble me with my Gnex is tiny dust/dirt particles which tend to build up in the space between screen's glass edge and plastic. It's not very noticeable, but annoying nevertheless.

Is there a similar gap on the N4, or glass is pretty much 'melted' with the plastic side?

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 4 General] adamtg:
Did any of the Nexus 4 users post some 1080p video here, did I missed it?
[Nexus 4 General] gideonMorrison:
That picture is highly inaccurate, as the it's not a true representation of black levels. The N4 has among the best black levels. I quote from Techradar:

"When you're looking at icons on a black background (like in the app drawer), you can't even see the black, if that makes sense. It is so deep, that icons just float."

Go check out some video reviews and see for yourself. That photo is idiotic.
[Nexus 4 General] casonswag:
Yea seeing it in hd video or in person would be better and more accurate

max charging power / navigation power consuming

Hi, could you please check what the max. charging power in mAh is? My HTC One X was slightly above 600mAh. And can you please navigate with google navigation and check if the battery will be charged or decharged when connected to an 1000mAh car-charger?

Big thanks!!!

Amoled + on screen buttons = horrible screen burn.

Not really, not for everyone. Mine is perfect :D
[Nexus 4 General] death__machine:
Didn't read if its mentioned before, but the rattling is mostly because of the Camera. All HTC One Xs have this. Nothing to worry about. Cheers

howdy yy'all

i have sucessfully upgraded my nexus 7 to 4.2 today but when using storage analyser i get error

unable to detect detect any valid sdcard or usb device

i have installed apps succesffuly with sd data being installed on the device

please can some advise the method i used for upgrade was

nexus toolkit

flashed stock 4.1.2 lost root and cwm

upgraded using tool kit to 4.2 and then reflashed root and cwm
[Nexus 7 General] simbin:
same problem here... they prob just need to update something for 4.2... suspect an update will follow soon
[Nexus 7 General] rootbrain:
The multi-user abilities in 4.2 are now causing havoc with some apps. used to be /data/media on 4.12. On 4.2, now the partition is /data/media/0/ for the 1st user, /data/media/1/ for the second, and so on and so on. If you're rooted, I think creating a symlink manually should fix this. I suggest you don't create other uses, just stick with the one for now, then you just need a single symlink from /data/media/0 back to just /data/media

There will need to be a lot of apps updated.....
[Nexus 7 General] erica_renee:
I could not have said this any better. There will be Hundreds of not thousands of apps that will have to be updated.. Nearly any app that stores data without it having any logic for looking for where to store it at..

I Like the multi user . will create a guest user to keep prying eyes (my son ) off my tablet.

New software has bugs to work out.. this one going to have more then useual
[Nexus 7 General] khaytsus:
Any app which manually specifies a path, such as apps like Storage Analyzer must do in order to operate, should be few. The vast majority of apps ask Android to store the data and Android handles the path.

Hi guys, i just installed cm7.2 and expreienced and extreme boost in my wifi signals. Its just an incredibleeeee boost! Like 10 - 15 meters!!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:
Dude, the OP is speaking about his Wifi Boost thing not about his Data connection, hence Modem has nothing to do with the same Wifi boost:)

@OP,May be the Kernel on CM7.2 is making the difference here compared to the one on the Stock ICS on ur wifi connection:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androiderb89:
Yes. I am dead sure.. The ability to grab the wifi signal is WAY more on the CM7.2. It might be consuming more power but i dont care. Is this software related?

Also I need to show you guys what I mean.

This is my modem (Belkin basic n150)

Next image is from the same window on my left.

There red mark is where i can catch the signal now! Its behind the tree actually on the opposite side of the road.? I still get a connection but a hazy one.. But IT DOES loads pages!! slow though.. The yellow mark is where i could get a connection on ICS.

I think it is almost 150 meters. INSANEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! Also please dont forget to answer my question regarding the software / rom / kernel thats affecting it. And how do i check the parameters if any.

Thanks.

Can you activate the "on screen keyboard" when Touch Cover is attached under tiles mode???

The reason I want this is to use handwriting feature.

Thanks for your help.
[Microsoft Surface] mchimney:
So far the only way I know how is if I fold the keyboard back. It senses the position of the keyboard and can activate the onscreen stuff.
[Microsoft Surface] scottiepp:
I hope there has a way to bring onscreen keyboard without folding the touch cover back.
[Microsoft Surface] AndyRathbone:
Yes.

Charms -> Settings -> Keyboard

When the Keyboard pop-up menu appears, choose Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel.

That always brings up the onscreen keyboard, even if an external keyboard is attached and working.

WOW you are the man, thx~~~~

It was stuck at Samsung logo (the one with color not the initial white one). Did it again with the stock kernal same issue.

I will tried the kies approach.

do what i did backup your faveriote files from your internslal storage and flash the factory image for 4.2 came stright from PA
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KiethS:
I'm applying for the knucklehead award :•{

I did´t like the clock and lock screen, so I tried your .zip via Cwm.

It worked, but only partially. Clock digits on lock screen are great, clock application is now missing, as is the English keyboard for input choices.

Wish I had a way back to where I was, pending an improved clock. I didn't mind the new keyboard, actually, just the Bold font clock.

I need a working clock with alarm, and prefer it like it was in 4.1.2.

Is it possible to get a zip to put the new keyboard back, but replace the clock and lock screen with the older versions? That would be very much appreciated!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KiethS:
Roundabout workaround-

I located a download link to manually push Google Nexus 7's version 4.2 update.

The .Zip is roughly 80mb.

I downloaded, flash in via CWM, then flashed the Superuser .zip (a shortcut way to enable root), and vwahlah!

Net results of modding the OTA 4.2 with your keyboard/clock mod zip, then restoring via downloaded manual 4.2 was, the Lock screen clock is now a single font style (no ugly BOLD hours), the new English Android keyboard has returned, the Clock application has been returned to the apps list (got my alarm back), BUT, the clock app's hour font is Bolded, unlike the lock screen.

Win some lose some.
[HTC Wildfire S] WiseCrunchyEggroll:

[HTC Wildfire S] Pr3no:

[HTC Wildfire S] WiseCrunchyEggroll:
That's because cm10 has been out longer. I personally like both. I'm asking others what they like about each
[HTC Wildfire S] Feyerabend:
That's it. AOKP appeared in this forums two days ago.

I flashed the ROM and it's amazing. In my phone goes faster than CM10. But it has some little bugs. I'm waiting to ak0r, he will upload a clean build in a few days.
[HTC Wildfire S] anupdada:
Cm10 has bug in camera,. Sometime Camera gets blurred like Thats why I reverted back to HTC stock ROM.

Has camera bug free cm10 released? If yes than pls some one give me the download link of Stable CM10 with latest Gapps supporting it...

For cm10 use miui camera to get ride of artifacts in the camera. Beside that there's the YouTube bug and small delay with lock screen but its pretty much stable.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Unibrow:
I was running latest paranoid android and I wiped cache/dalvic cache after flashing Cerberus in recovery and when the phone booted up it was asking me to Activate (sprint service) my phone. I've never seen this with flashing roms and was wondering if this is a known issue with flashing roms on the S3 or something that can randomly occur from time to time.

Anyone have experience with this before? I had been running Paranoid Android for less than 24 hours but initially didn't have any problems whatsoever.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Youdoofus:
Itll do that sometimes depending on the rom. Usually does it after a factory reset and installing a cm based rom. Its just asking you to add your google account... you should be fine

sent from my thumbs
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Unibrow:
This didn't have anything to do with my Google account. I guess I should have been more specific, I mean that my phone is deactivated on Sprint's network as in I can't make phone calls and all the info is missing in about phone. Phone number, PRL and such. I am flashing back to stock right now and hope this fixes it. Will probably give paranoid another go but this doesn't sound like a common issue because I haven't been able to find anything by searching.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] billard412:
When you get back to stock it'll probably reactivate itself. If not (although you can do this regardless just in case), ##72786# in the dialer should set you straight. If I'm not mistaken the screen you're referring to should be gone when you boot stock regardless. Its a bug. Doesn't work for a sprint phone but still buried in the rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Youdoofus:
Ahhh... could try manually flashing your modem after the install too

sent from my thumbs
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Unibrow:
Soon as I flashed the stock rom it tried to activate and initially failed and prompted me to reboot. Second attempt it was successful and then I immediately flashed back to PA and it is working. Going to give it another shot and keep the stock rom on my sd card this time in case I get stuck in a pinch.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Unibrow:
I jumped the gun, phone activated fine but signal drops in and out randomly and will not connect to 3g. Just reflashed to stock again and everything seemed fine but signal was still back in and out. Checked under status and PRL read "0" tried updating to no avail so did the dialer code and it did the activation and all is right in the world again, or at least for the moment.

Just trying to figure out why when I flash Paranoid all my settings just disappear

*edit*

Just flashed back to PA this third time after fully making sure that the phone was working and had 3G data and all was right with the world (my phone). Will update if it goes South again but as of right now the phone is behaving properly. Maybe it just wasn't working right the first time and I didn't notice since I was on wifi. Only thing that keeps me from thinking that is I didn't get the Activation message until 12 hours or so after I had flashed and had been using the phone. /shrug
