[Nexus 4 Accessories] Stryder5:
If you bought it through T-Mobile, they have a $5 per month insurance policy ($20 deductible) for accidental damage. They also have an $8 per month policy (no deductible) that covers damage and theft. Beats the SquareTrade, even with the discount. I understand that most people probably got it through the Play Store but hope that helps anyone thinking of getting it through T-Mobile.

I personally got the $8 plan. I'll probably either cancel the plan or downgrade it to the $5 after I get a case and some screen covers.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] chadmd23:
I have a Citi Forward Visa card, for free (no annual fee either) you get $250 of cell phone insurance ($50 deductible). I just filed a claim on my Galaxy Nexus after the screen cracked when I dropped it. Seems pretty straightforward and can't beat the price. It covers breakage & theft.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] WinDroidGuy:
Incorrect...
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Deeco7:
Your Bank/Home Insurance
[Nexus 4 Accessories] mZimm:
I'm assuming you have to buy the phone with the card in order for it to be covered? Really wish I knew this before paying with my Discover Card.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
How is that incorrect?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] icecicle:
If u crack the phone with TMobile insurance there is a deductible it only covers non accidental stuff without the deductibles but if its not super cracked they won't charge u just Dont mention it ... U think if we buy from play store we can still get it insured from TMobile? I have the 8 dollar plan on my line for my One S right now Dont know what's gonna happen with that Lol
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
I'm pretty sure Premium Handset Protection will work with the Nexus 4. I don't see why it wouldn't, considering there are NO differences between the Play Store and T-Mobile version.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] llblwskydrgn:
Thanks for mentioning this, I have the same card and I bought the phone using the card. Do you know how long it is covered? I can't find a link to the information on the site.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] SubyWill:
This. You just have to be really careful.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] lnfound:
If you bought with amex you get 90 days accidental on all tech as I understand it. Great for learning to cope with the new phone
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
I purchased with AMEX. Thanks for the info.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] itspb:
I'm usually very very careful with my phone but sometimes the luck isn't with me and I end up dropping it. Thankfully my room is carpeted so the impact is reduced. But I don't want to take any risks.

I can't goto Tmobile because i bought the phone from Play Store.

SquareTrade looks good but $99 deductible is absurd.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] 0.0:
$99 is better than $130 from tmobile. i currently have the tmobile one for my phone that i bought from them, but im going to keep it for the nexus 4 even though i bought it from the play store. i dont think tmobile would know or care much. its the same phone
[Nexus 4 Accessories] phixional:
SquareTrade's Price is alright if you have a $600 device, if they want to attract the Nexus 4 users they will need to drop the price.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Stryder5:
Totally forgot about this. Opted for the warranty until I get a bumper and skin on the phone, but I can cancel that since 90 days will be plenty!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] chadmd23:
You do NOT have to buy the phone with this card, you just have to pay your entire monthly bill with the card. Coverage begins after you pay your first monthly bill with the CC. (For my claim, I have to send in both my credit card bill and my cell phone bill)

There is no time limit. But you can only make 2 claims per year. If you have an older phone, they may not value it for as much as you have paid for it, but that would be on a case by case basis.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] magn2o:
Don't forget Ensquared. Currently it's $58.99 for 1 year (or $99.99 for 2 years) with a $75 deductable. :good:
[Nexus 4 Accessories] llblwskydrgn:
Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, I don't pay the phone bill on this card. However, I did find that my card offers a 1 year extended warranty, so I guess that means that after the 1 year Google Play warranty expires, the Visa will cover it for one more year. Yay for credit card benefits!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] D_Rob:
They will reject it based on the IMEI fyi.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] edwtenor:
Very wrong.

The 5 dollar plan will only extend the manufacture warranty as long as you pay it (also includes access to tmobile mobile security which must be set up). Deductible for claims is indeed $20 dollars but DOES NOT cover accidental damage, loss of device or theft.

The 8 dollar plan is what covers accidental damage and loss/theft of device. It also encompasses the extended manufacture warranty as long as the feature is added. The deductible for coverage of accidental damage claim is $130. A claim for non accidental damage (USB port malfunction, screen goes dark, no noticeable physical damage) is $20.

Hope this clarifies the policy...
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
This.

I still think it's a pretty good deal.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Xentar712:
Squaretrade is a rip. Why the iPhone 5 64GB plan is $99(for 2 years) with a $50 deductible and ALL other smartphones are $125 with a $99 deductible, is beyond me. The iPhone 5 64GB is $500 more expensive yet the insurance is cheaper?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] itspb:
This looks really good. Can anyone else comment on Ensquared?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] CoCoGirl886:
I actually just found out I have the same extended warranty from chase. Any idea whether it covers cracked glass? (Also the 90 days accidental protection). Or will it follow the same terms as Google?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] partylikeaninjastar:
Honestly, what I'm more worried about is phone loss or theft. Me owning a phone pre Android meant I was buying a new phone every month or every other month (my record is ten phones in twelve months). Ever since my first Android phone, and my second, now my third, and soon to be my fourth, I've taken a LOT better care of my phones. A phone can take a drop. With proper protection, it can take more.

After our warranties are up in a year, a few of us will probably be looking to buy the next Nexus device anyway and I'm confident that I can keep a phone in good working order within a year's time span, but I'm not confident that it won't get "lost" or stolen.

I think I may pass on third party insurance since most don't cover theft and I don't think Asurion will cover me since I didn't buy it from T-Mobile. There's a tempered glass screen protector, the Fantom 4, coming out in late January that claims to protect against screen breakage that I might invest in since the only kind of damage I'm really worried about is cracked front. If the back cracks, I'll just get a case that covers it.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] narcopolypse:
I just went with Protect Your Bubble. $8 a month with a $100 deductable and they cover loss, theft, and accidental damage.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] jdzitro:
wish i would have seen this thread sooner.

i went ahead and got the SquareTrade plan. most of my tax money is going toward this phone anyway. and ive been pleased with ST in the past.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] g2uzer:
Anyone using else using Protect your bubble? Any good ?or do they bull there way when you make a claim ?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] altqq:
for those looking for insurance still...might i suggest looking into best buy geek squad protection. 170/2 yr or 9.99/month. No contract, No deductible, no claim limits, cover everything except lost/theft. You can cancel it anytime and they will return the remaining unused time if u got the 2 yr plan.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] g2uzer:
You have to buy the phone there, correct,?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] LesserAnimal:
Square trade is how I Got my nexus 4 and 7. Originally bought a one x but it blew and had terrible random total battery discharge. They had none left so they offered me a check for 550 and I bought both nexuss for that price. You get 2 more exchanges if you buy the phone in store no contract but the contract expires if you buy a different phone. I called ignorant off that fact and they agreed to insure my used nexus 4 two more times. Best $100 spent ever

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cosmozona:
dear experts,

i have a question regarding playing files on TV via wife which are located on an external HD, which is connected to TF101. In other words, i have toshiba external drive 500 gb, tf101, samsung ace 2 phone, samsung tv and skifta program. The idea is, connect external drive to tf101, initiate skifta in tf101 and in ace 2 phone and by using phone initiate a movie on TV which is located in external drive?

And here I come into a problem, i can play movies on TV that are on my phone, and those that are in TF101, but with skifta my ace 2 does not list movies that are on external drive which is connected to TF101 :( If i use only TF101 and skifta, i also can play on TV only those files, that are on TF101 but those which are on external HDD are not listed.

Is there a way to do that? Thank you!

Hi. I currently have a GT-8010. I want to change the firmware to the US version. How do I go about doing that? Thank you. (I have experience with rooting, but I haven't seen any explicit answers or suggestions.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smaw51:
So you just want it to say its an 8013? Modify build.prop with something like rom tool box
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elfsiren:
Thanks for your reply. I want it to be the 8013 because that's the US version and it comes with an app I really want. (The KNO textbooks app). It's only available on the US version. I have seen the two rooting methods, but neither explicitly says if I can change the 8010 to US firmware.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smaw51:
so just edit your build.prop, change the stuff from 8010 to 8013 and that will let you install that app. That was what I did to get the 4.2 camera working on this tablet before other librarys were put out to have it working right, switched to make it think it was a nexus.

So make those changes and then install the app, making a backup first of course
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elfsiren:
You've been very helpful. I will root and try this method. Thanks for your replies.

Edit: Is there a guide about changing build props you could point me to? I've never done this particular thing before. Thanks again.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoss_n2:
You need to flash the GT -n8013 rom via Odin it will take 5 minutes Max
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elfsiren:
Thank you. I'll do that. Do I use method 2? Sorry for the bother, but the thread that Zedomax posted is a bit cluttered. Can I get some step by step instructions? (Though I know there aren't that many steps :o)

Other nav apps work but google nav is the default nav program and I cant change that, so after putting the full address in delivery droid then I have to put the full address in again in another nav app rather then just clicking the provided navigate button in delivery droid, its time consuming and making peoples pizza late and my tips shrink.

Hey guys, 2am and I'm stuck sans phone.

I was trying to do a wipe and apparently did something wrong. Here is where I sit:

Can open CWM v4.0.1.5

if I boot without trying to go CWM, It just stays on LG loading screen

Have pulled SD card, reformatted (FAT 32), and added .zip files on there (straight to sd card). Neither .zips show up.

In CWM, I can click "install zip from sdcard" but, as the title says, I get "No files found."

I already redid the steps to root (One-Click-G2x-recovery-flasher-04-28-12 ... NVFlash)

please help.

EDIT: Fixed. CWM v4.0.1.5 does not recognize external sd cards. used NVflash to flash CWM 5.x.x.x. Problem solved. Thank you!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] justjackyl:
Doesn't the old of a version of cwm not support external sd? You should flash 5.0.2.8 which supports both external and internal.

Upgrade your cwm from 4.x to 5.x to get external sd support.

This will get you upto 5.0.2.0 don't flash the touch version.

5.0.2.0 supports external as well.

I can't find where the post is for 5.0.2.8 which i use, but i used the older one for a long time.

Edit i read too fast, just nvflash the 5.0.2.0, you flashed the 4.x which only supports internal.

Good to.go.

Hi

Is there any JB rom where external mic (headset) is working?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grouper:
This is completely AOSP with Verizon bins, and root/busybox. It's ALMOST completely functional. Check the Current Bugs section to see the two insignificant ones that are left.

READ THIS FIRST: Upon first boot (after factory reset), everything on your sdcard is moved into a new folder named "0", don't freak out. This has to do with the new multi-user functionality, and this is how it will stay. If you're wondering about the problem of nested folders being created every time you wipe data/cache, and recoveries not being able to see your backups, this has been solved with the latest recoveries. It's NECESSARY that you update to the latest CWM (6.0.1.5+) or TWRP to prevent this from happening every time you wipe data/cache (do a factory reset). Update CWM through ROM Manager, TWRP through Goo Manager or flash it through fastboot. The downloads are below.

Appreciate the help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grouper:
Upon each data wipe the contents of the sdcard are moved into a new folder named "0," even if that folder already exists. There will be an update to your recovery (there is already a commit for CWM) to solve this problem. To be running 4.2, I would leave everything in the "0" folder. If you're worried about an app being able to see backups, there is also already a fix for ROM Manager if you've updated to the latest version.
