[Nexus 4 General] raze599:
Not being a developer, I'm not really sure of the implications of this. What are the implications? :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] Imperticus:
Meaning the sources for N4 will not be provided by Google, like they did/do with all other Nexus devices. You won't be able to just download the Android sources and build a ROM like you were able to with other nexus devices.
[Nexus 4 General] Ranguvar:
Can you give us a link? I just ordered a Nexus 4 and this is awful news.

The Groups link doesn't use clear language and doesn't rule out future release..

JBQ's post here - https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/android-building/-ymcoMuDAbA

It clearly says "There is nothing in AOSP related to Nexus 4"

On google+ I asked him: "Does that mean Nexus 4 not supported by AOSP?"

JBQ: Correct.

Me: But any plans to include N4 in AOSP later on?

JBQ: I can't comment about the future, sorry.﻿
[Nexus 4 General] tuffCookie:
wtf is this nonsense!!!

it's a Nexus device just like the Nexus 7, 10, Galaxy Nexus, etc...y shouldn't it have AOSP?! :crying:

if this were true, then T-Mobile should have went ahead and added wifi calling to their version.
[Nexus 4 General] raze599:
Oh well at least the factory image is up there. Hope it gets supported by AOSP in the future though.

[Nexus 4 General] Nebucatnetzer:
It's just really stupid from Google to say something like "I can't comment about the future."

There is a reason for it and I think it's quite logical to tell it. It wasn't a problem to tell why the N7 3G can't get AOSP support so why should it be a problem with the N4.

i set my clock and everything but google screwed me over by sending the wake-up call 10 minutes too late when everything was sold out. google germany said they have no clue when the new batches come in. it will be terrible for me because im going to another country in december because of work - until christmas.

i know some of you had checkout issues and in some cases they registered two devices instead of one. any of you got one spare? i'd pay the entire sum plus shipping of course. would at least ensure that paranoidandroid official will be built before 2013. : -/

Hi sorry if its a silly question. ..but I really can't figure out how to do a screen cap on the phone. I am able to do it using the spen only.

I tried the home and power buttons...didn't work for me?? I dont know why....

Thanks!

Three methods.

S-Pen. Press button and hold pen onto screen.

Buttons. Press power and home at the same time.

HydraCore v7 has bugs.. Just wait until they are fixed in next version..

Also, it was mentioned many times, you cant just read the last comment and say to yourself that nothing is wrong with this kernel.. You have to do reading on all the pages starting from the date/time when the kernel was released..
[LG Optimus Black] luq529:
What do you think about this phone (L9) ? I've read that it works smoothly and battery lasts a long time. In my country the phone costs 900PLN. For example Lg 4X costs about 1350PLN and I can sell my black for 500PLN. I would like to buy, but I do not know if it is worth it. It have dual-core proccesor and SGX540 and 4,7 IPS screen with a little higher resolution. Gpu is old, I think. I can not decide and I'm waiting for a good answer. Sorry for my bad English.
[LG Optimus Black] pkb_always4u:
Its like "hanging in palm tree after falling from sky" (A hindi proverb translated roughly). Sell ur OB and dont look back for LG. I m yet amazed you are going to buy another mobile from LG. IMO go for HTC as they have very vast support by XDA and their updates are good too.
[LG Optimus Black] re4lsk:
HTC = locked bootloader and if you dont know how to you could brick the phone.

as I always recommend, go for an AOSP device Galaxy nexus or the next nexus4 (made by LG) or some of the new xperias.
[LG Optimus Black] luq529:
Yea, but in my sweet country Nexus 4 costs two times more and it doesn't have microsd slot. If thera is 32gb model of this phone, sure I will buy it. I saw on the youtube that L9 is very smooth, have good performance, good battery, nice screen(I don't need a full hd in phone) and good looking.
[LG Optimus Black] franck57:
I have tried this phone and i can tell you that it is very smooth in comparision to another smatphone like optimus l7. Also the materials (for me) are really good, :laugh: i also would buy l9 because it doesn't costs much for what it offers
[LG Optimus Black] sekhar13515:
No company gives free nothing.. Just think why the L series cost is less than Optimus Black

You compare the LG Optimus Black and L series in some sites, nothing L series is better than Optimus Black except ICS version for now (of course now we will get soon official ICS for optimus black in couple of weeks)

So decision is yours..
[LG Optimus Black] t0g3:
p970 better then L9??? :confused:

http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5025&idPhone2=3704
[LG Optimus Black] antoz87:
Optimus L9 seems to be a lot berrer than Optimus Black
[LG Optimus Black] xonar_:
L9 is better than P970 for most things, but according to GSMArena it doesn't have GPU and it will choke on high graphics games.

@pkb_always4

It depends on what phone you have not the brand. It varies. Out P970 community is better than a lot of HTC phones just as some HTC phones community is better than ours. Were alot better of than most phones this old since other companies like HTC decides rather not to give updates than take a while longer to release them (Even though they're supposed to but Google doesn't enforce it strictly enough). If you want a guaranteed awesome phone,awesome community and awesome official then theres only Nexus. The only problem is that it's expensive.
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Hey bro, I think on gsmarena, he just took the wrong phone... here are the full specs:

http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_optimus_l9_p760-4955.php

So the gpu is: PowerVR SGX540

But no clue of how good it is...
[LG Optimus Black] xonar_:
:eek: I looked at P769 which is also L9.

The SGX540 is a very good GPU.

If thats the phone he was talking about then its much better than P970.
[LG Optimus Black] luq529:
It have OMAP 4430, the same have razr and prada 3.0. But i thought that sgx 540 is old. This gpu is in the first galaxy s.
[LG Optimus Black] xonar_:
It won't give you lag. You don't need more than that.
[LG Optimus Black] luq529:
I'm decided, but does not want to leave our community. Unfortunately, this the way of things. My Lg Black will go to my brother. I don't why so many people complain about p970. It's a very good phone even now(but yea with Zeus :D). I will sure keep checking here still. We have a very good developers. I'm sure that someone go for the Lg L9 too. And thanks for reply.
[LG Optimus Black] Richard Wolf VI:
Same GPU as the Nexus S/Galaxy S, so it's better than the OB but not that much, compared to the Mali 400 in the Galaxy S II/S III and Xperia U/P. The Xperias have the same CPU as the L9.
[LG Optimus Black] Ereckson:
Better yes! BT i recommend u don't go fr a phone with a TI based cpu...Sony's NovaThor isn't dat grt also.. I'd say go fr anything with Qualcomm s4...
[LG Optimus Black] theaks30:
then i say how about nexus 4 :p
[LG Optimus Black] SovereignKnight:
I picked up a p769 L9 and I must say I'm impressed! The screen is beautiful and the phone is snappy! It makes me forget about my G2x. I'd love to see CM10.1 on it. It would run it perfectly! Only drawback I've seen so far... I can't seem to get Voice Dialing to work. What gives?
[LG Optimus Black] cmahendra:
Strange! The first thing I tried calling my wife from ShowRoom was to call with voice dial. Any ICS have built in support for that. Just press google voice and say "Call Wife" and phone will call your wife. :D And yes, I am also coming from O2x, almost same device.

Well said. I am long time hater of LG for its slow support, but pals, THEY MAKE UNBRICKABLE PHONES. LG Support Tool always UNBRICKED every phone (which I know). This is TOPMOST best feature of LG. Now about slow or no support, who cares? We have XDA :D One of my friend already bricked HTC phone last year and later sold it in scrap.

This is the reason, this week only, I upgraded to new economical but still strong model LG L9 with 4.7" screen. Long duration Li-Ion 2150 mAh battery, which gives two full working days (and roaming also) which is rare in most Android Smartphones. So now people should stop cursing them, like I did. :D I also recommend all for LG Nexus 4 if good budget, else go for L9.

EDIT: How LG phones are unbrickable? When you press few HARDWARE buttons on phone simultaneously the phone hardware puts phone in SW Upgrade Mode. No matter phone is bricked or working. In this mode most devices download full rom with the help of LG Support Tool and your phone is back in action.

Most (not all) of the phones from other companies does not even come in such upgrade mode and you loose chances of bringing LIFE back to phone, leaving only one option to send to Service Center and well you know how much they charge. I did not pay a single penny to Service Center for any of my bricked phones. :D
[LG Optimus Black] glückspilz:
here are the main differences ...

connectivity:

.p970 Has a gyroscope , l9 not

p970 can be used as a WiFi hot spot l9 not.

l9 Has DLNA p970 not.

camera:

Clearly better video recording quality	1080p @30 fps (l9)	vs	720p @30 fps (p970)

power

Appreciably more battery power	2,150 mAh (l9)	vs	1,500 mAh (p970)	=> 44% more battery power

i couldnt send the link im still new in this forum , its from versusio
[LG Optimus Black] Jishnu Sur™:
I've have this phone, and said by Cmahendra even i come from the O2x, this phone is quiet good! Antutu Benchmark results hover around 7300..

And yea, Video camera does have autofocus! But i guess the camera clarity in P970 is better than of L9 and my friend own a P970..

Cost cutting in L9? Yes, it has no ambient Light Sensor!
[LG Optimus Black] crystallogenesis:
7300 in antutu with stock rom?
[LG Optimus Black] xonar_:
It's possible to break sw update mode by damaging the bootloader in P970 and possible quite a few other LG phones aswel.

Also tegra devices can always be recovered using nvflash and quite a few other devices has fastboot.

Theoretically you should be able to use Omapflash to read/write to our device but LG's SW update mode has made that difficult.
[LG Optimus Black] luq529:
L9 and Black have DLNA and wifi hotspot. I have both so i know. I'm not sure with gyro.
[LG Optimus Black] Jishnu Sur™:
Yes!
[LG Optimus Black] crystallogenesis:
I read that in stock rom it reachin 5900 points.

And if its with tweaked rom? Then It should reach about 8000-8500 points
[LG Optimus Black] luq529:
I have on stock rom with oc to 1,22ghz 8000 points.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dannymac77:
Some back story: Work is hot and heavy to get a few of these as we are looking to deploy a couple hundred across the enterprise. Well specifically upper management has narrowed the choices down to iPad, Surface or Nexus 10 as they want a closed infrastructure product, and with Android, closest we can get as Google isn't officially in the hardware business yet.

So Surface I've ruled out, at least RT OS as the closed infrastructure they so desire doesn't give me what I need, as in a JunOS Pulse client, Zenprise not available in the store.

iPad right now looks great, has all the 3rd party software I need and kiosk mode as the tablets are going to be utilized for a very specific reason and they want to lock out certain access/apps from the devices.

Which leads me to Nexus. I have come to terms that Zenprise MDM is not going to give me the granular control I need to lock out applications we don't want. Nature of Android. Samsung's SAFE would be wonderful, but obviously won't be bundled with the "pure google" Nexus. So I need to get a copy of the stock OS, strip all the apps I don't need and create a custom ROM and then push to these devices. I've had my management team standing on my back for 2 weeks now and am super bummed that there isn't a B&M store stocking on launch day as they did with the 7. So I've already purchased two from play and am hoping Walmart might get me one this week though doubt it.

TL;DR How can I get my hands on a copy of the stock OS for the 10 to start creating my ROM? Will I have to wait for someone more knowledgeable than me to strip from the device or will Saumsung/Google eventually have a place for me to DL. With the Asus Transformers it has been great as ASUS themselves offer all the tools needed on their website.

Also, taking suggestions from any with experience. I'm not in the modding scene personally other than as a consumer. (USe JBSourcery on my G'Nex with delight) So have been boning up on mod scene as I can and hope that process won't be too difficult. :P Thanks!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unlawful:
Well the actual stock image can be found here, however going about modifying this might be a PITA (note they are in .img form). Another option would be to create a custom build of Android but that might be a bit of work and a tad overkill.

[Windows Phone 8 General] gmfeld:
I picked up my AT&T 8X on Saturday, have 14 days to decide if I want to keep it. I've been on the fence since it's a little smaller than the HTC Titan that I was using. I like a big screen size, and the 8X is slightly but noticeably slimmer/smaller. Seems to me that the Nokia 920 size is pretty much the same as the Titan.

My experience with the 8X over the last 3 days has been fine, I do like the form factor and feel of the device in my hands. It's lightening quick, screen display is excellent, takes good photos (good enough for me). One issue that I've noticed but have not confirmed is whether the AT&T radio is different than what I experienced in the Titan. I've noticed drviing around in my car that the phone/bluetooth reception indicator drops to zero or 1 bar in places where I never had reception problems before. Could that be possible? I didn't get a chance to try to use the phone at those spots, but I will before my 14 days runs out.

Any other 8X users out there have any experiences with the device to share? Satisfied, not satisfied?
[Windows Phone 8 General] redbluff:
I have the 8X as well. No issues for me about the phone. Have some issues with WP 8 but these are OS issues. Phone has done a reboot on its own once. And I am still conditioning the battery. Seems to drain faster than expected but I have only had it since Monday. Overall much better than 920
