Lol..Last year i was thinking to wait for a while just because of N4's high Price.I was dreaming that its price would eventually come down close to the Google play price.It's a good thing that i did not wait & got it from US @ around 36k.At that time Home shopping was selling 16GB @ 57k lol..Now we got N5 here & i am shocked to see the price of N4 at Home shopping.It took a whole year for Home shopping to come to a price which was affordable for me lol..
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Well my N5 has been delivered in the U.S... Unfortunately no estimated Time to reach khi... Alas... So close yet so far :P

But yea sak3ater I would never rely on pak Prices to come down to match U.S prices... I mean the nexus 7 2013 16gb is being sold evrywhere for $200 now even tho it launched not too long ago... Here it still cost 30k+...

I believe if you have anyone coming from abroad... Get whatever you want thru them... Simple...
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Hey does anyone know where I can get a case and screen protectors for the N4...? Preferably Matt screen protectors...?
[Nexus 4 General] Devilisher:
From olx.com.

Search it and you'll find it
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
It's like asking in a forum "from where i can get something"..& the best reply was "From market"..

No offence but obviously olx would be the first place to search..Giving the name of a specific shop would be of some help

You have drivers installed? Can you use fast boot? if yes then it's only a one step process of flashing factory image
[Nexus 4 General] Hmmy 4444:
i cnt flash it throug fastboot becuz wen i type fastboot re-boot booloader or any thing concerning wth fastboot it always says Waiting for device n it doesnt work... cn u tell me hw to make it work. cuz i knw if it would work i would only hav to type fastboot-all.bat n thats it... plz help me out on the waiting for device prob
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Simplest way is to download the image file for 4.4... Then use any of the nexus toolkits... Use it to flash the stock image... It can't get easier than that... There are even tutorial videos on YouTube how to use the toolkits... Google it...

I think that's what your trying to do... Flash 4.4 stock...??
[Nexus 4 General] meZQureshi:
Simply grab a Flashable Zip made by some (@imperticus) containing 4.4 ROM and Kernel and dirty flash it on 4.3. Clear the cache n dalvik. You're done.
[Nexus 4 General] aeoveu:
No no no. You need the fastboot drivers (look for the "universal naked driver" on xda) and when your phone is in the boot loader, let the computer install the driver (direct it towards the driver, cause it probably won't pick it up automatically).once it finishes installing, fast boot should work fine.

Zip flashing and toolkits are unnecessary.

[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
First boot takes long time. But if it is stuck there for more than 10 - 15 mins, then there could be something else. Let some expert give opinion about it. And/Or you can google it as well.
[Nexus 4 General] Hmmy 4444:
plz help me, cn i again flash te factory image?
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Yes I think you can. I flashed it through toolkit. Don't have idea about fastboot. Now best thing is either google/search your issue, "Stuck at nexus logo (or something like that)" and/or wait for some expert to say about it. Alternatively you can post it in Nexus 4 Q & A thread.
[Nexus 4 General] Hmmy 4444:
whch toolkit did u use??
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
I used nexus 4 toolkit by mskip.

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

Toolkit Download Link: http://goo.im/devs/mskip/toolkit/google_nexus4/model_files/MAKO.zip

---------- Post added at 12:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 PM ----------

This toolkit by mskip is free up to Android 4.2.2. But I flashed Android 4.4 successfully using this toolkit.

You can select Android 4.2.2 (when starting operation, even though your phone is running 4.3 or 4.4). Then Flash google stock image (you'll have to download stock image and put it in "Put google stock factory image here" folder (this folder will be created by nexus 4 toolkit and should be in "C")). Toolkit will warn you that this image doesn't exist in toolkit, do you want to continue, write "YES" there and continue. It should flash without any issue.

[Nexus 4 General] Fahad M.:
ahan... since how many time you're facing that boot loop, i mean first boot takes some long time.
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
You probably need to boot into recovery... And wipe data/factory reset... Should solve the issue I think...
[Nexus 4 General] raze599:
Do this, but it will wipe your data and /sdcard :

Make sure you have the Android SDK installed on your computer.

Download the official Nexus 4 4.4 factory image from here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

Extract the file you downloaded. Another compressed file will be in there.

Extract the new compressed file, and you will find a folder in there. In the folder are lots of different files.

Put all these files into the platform-tools directory of your Android SDK.

Click the flash-all file. This will overwrite all of your partitions and install complete stock Android 4.4.
[Nexus 4 General] Fahad M.:
for platform tools u dont need to download full sdk, pm me ur email id and i will give the platform tools directly to u, put those extracted image files in the platform tools folder and run flash-all.bat
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
There are 2 methods to get rid of this issue...

Either do a factory reset.If it does not work then try to re-lock your bootloader & unlock it again..

You will lose all of your data includind sd card but you will have a working Rom :D

Hi all,

I bought my nexus 4 from saddar karachi without any local warranty support. Now my nexus 4 wont turn on, i let it discharge completely and now it wont resuscitate by charging. The international warranty card says that it is only applicable in new zealand/australia. What do i do? pz help. Is there any way i can make a claim or should i go for local repairs, if yes then where and how?

Many Thanks

Regards

SH
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
The N4 has an issue where if you leave it to discharge all the way, it has a tough time coming back on again... Usually get the red charging light flashing...

Either way... Plug it in on charge and leave it for about an hour... Then try to switch on holding the power button for a while... If nothing... Then pull out charger plug again and let it charge... It shouldn't be more serious than a completely drained battery...

If this doesn't work you will need to try another fix that requires opening it up... But leave that for later...

Bottom line... NEVER completely discharge the nexus...
[Nexus 4 General] EnIXmA:
Open the nexus 4 from the back, disconect the battery, connect it back again and then charge it all the way to 100%.

Hi can anyone please reply soon...

Just want to know frm where in US a person can buy Nexus 5 (no contract n unlocked)...any specific store apart from online or google play ??
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
You can buy it from any major places like BestBuy, Wallmart and even ebay... but you wont get the same subsidized price as the Google Play Store...

Google is delivering phones in 2-4 days so you dont need to wait for it too long if you worried about time... you wont get a better price and product support from any other store like Google will give...
[Nexus 4 General] razi914:
hey there , im upgrading from gnex, im confused between n4 and s3 , which one has more good battery life? is n4 a good all-rounder?

?
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Generally the s3 has better Battery life... But the N4 as you know has the best development... And latest android version... also being 2GB ram is a huuggeee benefit...

The camera is not as good as the s3 so if you want a very good camera then the N4 may not be a good option... Tho the pictures are not bad at all... Just not as good as the s3.

I would suggest the N4 personally... But it does have its flaws... Like no expandable memory... Average camera... And screen I like the super amoled S3 better than IPS...

I would say try to put in some more money and get a Nexus 5... Its amazing in all aspects...

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 4 General] aeoveu:
Amoled is also prone to over saturation and discoloration (I had the Gnexus before the N4).

My N4, also, easily lasts a day...unless the operator's data connection is screwy (which is the case with Telenor these days).

The N4 will never feel like an d device. The camera, in low-light, isn't stellar as such, but its better than some Samsung phones. The Camera app, however, is rather basic sooooo.... But not that its bad either (I went to the US and UK recently and used the N4 as my sole camera. Didn't let me down).

[Nexus 4 General] razi914:
okay, as i am going to unlock and flash a rom on ma new n4 , but i fear that my phone bootloader doesnt screw up during unlock, i read a thread in which a guy was just unlocking the bootloader ,after selecting yes the screen went black and never turned on again , ,, :eek::eek: :eek:

p.s my benchmark score is lower then a s3 , gaming performance is also more slow , i chose a n4 bcoz it had a 2nd generaion quadcore and should be more faster then s3,
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
I unlocked bootloader n rooted my phone using a toolkit withoit any issue. Toolkit by mskip (look it up in original development thread, if u want). And IMO n4 is faster (or equivalent) to S3 in gaming performance. Which game did u try and it worked slower on ur device?
[Nexus 4 General] razi914:
Beach buggy !!
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Mmm... I haven't tried it. But dont know it is working slower than S3.
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
There is generally a corrupt something that causes these issues... It's very rare... I also used a toolkit for my N4 and also my N5... Work like a charm.

As for performance difference... A N4 should by much better due to double the RAM than a s3... I never had any performance issues with my n4 and I used to try majority of all the heavy games... Used to play modern combat 4 online all the time... No issues...

unlocking boot loader will wipe everything including your internal sdcard. And N4 is far far better than an S3 in terms of fluidity, multi tasking and 3d gaming

Charging li-po/li-ion batteries which today are used in all modern electronic gadgets should be with bit of care where a phone should be plugged off charger after it touches 100% in that case charging over night is prone to over charge the battery especially in case of usb charge(due to trickle charge). It can bloat the battery and reduce its standby time gradually. On the opposite side, battery should be avoided continued usage below 10% charge which strains the battery and hence reduces over all life

Hmm, is there anyway to improve the colors of nexus 4?, like we did it in the galaxy nexus,
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
U can do it with some custom kernel. Use app like trickstermod or other (franco.kernel, if u r using franco kernel, tho even tricketermod will work on franco kernel as well), but anyway u can use these apps to modify colors on custom kernels.
[Nexus 4 General] razi914:
Im using bricked kernel atm, im checking different combinations of colors, does n4 has any high color screen burn in problems?
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Dont know mate. Once i used PA kernel with their default color scheme, which looked good in the beginning but then it felt over saturated.

Anyway not sure abt any screen burn. Let some expert say abt it...
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
As far as i recall, screen burn in is a problem you need to worry about on Amoled screens... You mentioned you had the galaxy nexus which had amoled hence had to worry about it there... But this is an IPS display... Hence don't really need worry from that aspect.

Omer7, your as much an expert as anyone else ;)

How s ur nexus 5 going? Which rom u using on n5?

Is the display of n5 similar to n4, i mean colors washed out?
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Oh I love it MA. Its better in every aspect compared to the N4 and you can really see/feel it.

Currently running cm11 M2 , tho I have loaded multiboot to try other roms but not had the time to do so yet.

As for the screen, I was able to compare the N4 along side the N5... And the N4 looks terrible in comparison... Especially the blacks... The N5 blacks look so much better. I wouldn't say its washed out as much either... Its no Amoled, but its very very crisp.

[Nexus 4 General] razi914:
I sold my galaxy nexus for 20k, bought n4 for 30k, 20k is not a good price for n4... And for market price of n5, u can check sites like HomeShopping.pk , offering good prices!
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
20k for a nexus 4 is too little... A N4 used without warranty 16gb is going for about 27-29k... If you have a 8gb the. About 22-24k... So you can sell accordingly.

Personally I definitely say the nexus 5 is a pretty good upgrade from the N4... But if your losing too much money on it then might as well wait for the N6... It should be with some other company rather than LG next time... If its HTC or moto then it should be great...

An N5 in the market, 16gb you can get new for about 46k I think... Not too sure tho...

btw a guy is selling Note 2 on at&t for 29.5K should i go for it?
[Nexus 4 General] DrunkFuX666:
Snak3ater is right and that is the correct way of approaching the shop keepers... Rather don't say "I want to buy a used -----" then change your statement and say you want to sell... That would piss anyone off...

Instead Ask "how much is a used ----- for..." That way they will assume you want to buy and tell you the price... Then tell them you want to sell... That way the shop keeper won't think your trying to be over smart... Its really interesting how twisting words just a little bit can completely change its impact...

As for the note 2... There is a well known problem with the Note 2 mother boards which get fried a lot... The s3 had the same issue but was more widespread in the note2... I had it happen to one I bought for a friend... Luckily it was under warranty and got fixed free of cost... And they told me at M&P its a very widespread problem with this model...

So be a bit careful... Also... Lots of people say the nexus is a lot smoother than note 2... It tends to get sluggish with time apparently.
