[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoobieExtraordinare:
Unless you work for Google or samsung, your theory is all conjecture (same as mine) and so I would dial down the confidence of that statement. And two, I personally know and have also read on forums of N10s running 4.2.1 with none of these issues, which makes the software theory bogus.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bru87tr:
I think it is the updates. Mine was rock solid for almost two weeks. As soon as I did the updates, crash/reboots.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johno86:
I'm pretty sure certain apps draw a certain command from 4.2.1 causing problems.

Honestly, until Google addresses what the problem is it's all theorizing.

I haven't had a restart since I've changed my governor to performance. 42 hours so far with no reboots or freezes.

Only disabled is Location Services.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vittogn:
Which kernel are you using (that allows u to switch governor)?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tsunami1609:
To those turning off location services and have less/no reboots, have you disabled/don't use anything else? Reading earlier in this tread indicated that currents may have been an issue, and I originally attributed my issues to chrome, since that's where I noticed the reboots the most.

I've stopped using chrome and turned off background sync with currents, but the reboots still happen 2-3 times a day. Is using these apps causing the reboots as well, or can I start using them again? (I really like both of them, save for chrome's sluggish performance).

I'm also considering doing a factory reset, and rooting + using the AOSP browser if these issues still persist. I can handle once or twice a week, but once or twice a day isn't cutting it for me.

Is this in CM10 still? If so it would appear that CM10 did give you reboots until you change the governor?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johno86:
I'm using Jellybro at this very moment. The reboots are probably being caused by one of the apps I was using. I wasn't going to sacrifice not having an app for the reboots so just fiddled around here and there. Having it on performance has helped greatly in that regards.

I know it's not a permanent fix or good for battery life, but the reboots only happen when there's an update for an app or from goo manager; which is every 48 hours or whenever there's an app update through playstore.

[HTC Droid DNA] tehknics:
Can anyone confirm that either of these works?
[HTC Droid DNA] CastleBravo:
I don't have a DNA yet to test it, but they should work. Under the FCC ruling on Verizon's use of the 700mHz band (the band they use for 4G), Verizon can't take any actions that in any way restrict what apps the customers use, and also can not restrict tethering in any way. If it is blocked, then Verizon will have some major explaining to do to the FCC. (they already had to pay a 1.25 million dollar fine over this, so the FCC is serious)
[HTC Droid DNA] tehknics:
I sure hope so since none of the WiFi options seem to be working.

I download plenty of beta version apps and homebrew apps (not from market). Is there a way to update these without losing app data by uninstalling and reinstalling the new version. I don't want to lose the app data.

Thanks :)
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
Just install the new versions over the old ones. (App will be updated without data loss)
[General Questions and Answers] smartypants0:
It doesn't let me do that. It tells me the previous version must be uninstalled before installing the new one.
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
In that case, use an app such as Titanium Backup to backup your data, then uninstall the old app and install the new one. After that, restore the data.
[General Questions and Answers] smartypants0:
Do I need to root my phone to use that app?
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
Yes, the device would need root access.
[General Questions and Answers] blakdulz:
first open playstore and look for the new version of the app

second, searching that apk in google

that i do for manualy update, or u can use plugin on chrome to download apk directly into ur pc
[General Questions and Answers] johnyute:

[General Questions and Answers] smartypants0:
it doesnt let me update , it forces me to uninstall making me lose data.
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
As stated the only way to do it is do back up the data with titanium back up. Uninstall the app, install new one and then restore the settings.

Also be careful about getting apks from places other then the official app stores or here

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] singh_uk:
Hi

I have recently got my Nexus 4 having come from a Desire HD and the phone seems OK but even light use (web browsing, downloading) makes the top half of the back of the N4 noticeably warm

I can understand the phone heating up under benchmark/game stress but heating up just on web browsing?!

Coupled with the poor-ish battery life so far (only on 2nd cycle) I am trying to work out if my N4 is defective or not. Does everyone else's phones warm up this quickly?

Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanetheninja:
Mine doesn't get overly warm but this is something that's really subjective. I mean, I guess it gets warmer than plastic backed phone but my brain expects that somehow. Maybe it's abnormal though.

Charge the phone, then unplug it.

And run all tests on GL benchmark, this should heat it up more than any other application

Also, post the results. :)

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmxsoulja3:
Hey guys,

Just joined the whole android crowd, and for my first device why not the biggest phone they could load Android onto the Note II. I have been really happy with the device so far, well minus the fact the keyboard doesnt auto correct, and some other minor things. I like using AirDroid when I'm at home, but while I'm at work my PC is on a completely separate wired LAN system and not WIFI, is there a app out there that would allow me to send SMS from my PC through the phone similar to Airdroid without being on the same network? It doesn't have to be wireless, I can do USB, or my PC has bluetooth as well.

Thanks in advance, J

Hi all, got my nexus 4 yesterday through O2 yesterday and started using it today, first impressions are it is a brilliant phone, much better than the s3 of mine which after updating to 4.1 became very slow among other things!

Anyway the purpose of this thread is to find out if you guys have the same 'problem' as me! Basically when I shake the handset I can hear something moving inside the earpiece, this don't sound normal to me but if it is a regular thing then ok, but if not I'm going back to O2 tomorrow.

So, does anyone else have this problem?

[Nexus 4 General] johnny13oi:
Hey guys, I have read many reviews where people complain about overheating and excessive amount of heat from the phone localized in one area. Based on the tear down provided by ifixit, there looks to be no EMI shield over the CPU/memory chip area unless it was removed before the photo was taken. But either way, I see that when assembled there is the metal backing to the LCD directly above it which would really dissipate the heat well.

Why not purchase some thin thermal pads and apply as necessary to transfer the heat to the metal frame directly above it. Even if there is an EMI shield over it, open it up (unless it's soldered making it harder) and put the thin thermal pad in there and on the outside of the shield.

Seems like a very simple solution to fix a pretty big problem. I don't have my hands on a Nexus 4 and am unsure if I will in the future but if I ever do I will definitely try this and provide results and instructions on how to do the same.
[Nexus 4 General] Venekor:
Or LG could design the phone better.
[Nexus 4 General] BakaPhoenix:
Is not a bad idea actually, but i'm not too sure if the display will soffer about it :D

[Nexus 4 General] InvalidUsername:

[Nexus 4 General] crachel:
We hack phones to try and make them work better on this website, did you know that?
[Nexus 4 General] johnny13oi:
While I agree with you, thermal pads are relatively cheap and the concerns about pressure on the LCD by another poster would be fine as long as you use a thinner thermal pad that doesn't compress too much after application. I have various thickness of thermal pads so as long as you use the correct one to apply just the right amount of pressure I can only see a large benefit from something so simple.

It would require opening the device and I am unsure if there are warranty voiding stickers in the phone. Some people are really happy with the phone and this is the only problem so I am merely just trying to provide a solution to the one problem remaining.
[Nexus 4 General] Stadsport:
Thermal pads are to conduct heat from one surface (CPU) to another (heatsink). I can't say I agree with using the screen as a heatsink.
[Nexus 4 General] BakaPhoenix:
I wasn't talking of the pressure :D but the heat that the backplade dissipate, maybe can damage the screen
[Nexus 4 General] wurzelsepp3:
I doubt it will help,

someone pointed out that the only trigger for thermal throttling is the battery temperature,

[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
Yeah, i would guess the space there is to keep the heat from the screen...

If this phone runs hot it is most likely due to the glass acting as an insulator. Is there any venting anywhere? I bet much of the thermal issue could be solved with a well placed vent..

[Nexus 4 General] johnny13oi:
While I can see concerns about damaging the LCD due to the heat but I imagine heat spread over the entire surface of the phone is much better than localizing a much more intense heat in a smaller area. LCDs can withstand a decent amount of heat and a small arm chip spreading heat over the entire surface of the phone would be very minimal to no effect on the LCD. I can see great potential for damage allowing the heat to be confined to a small area (just the CPU and RAM sitting on each other) with no heat spreader or heat sink.
[Nexus 4 General] Ace42:
Well I guess we won't be overclocking this phone anytime time soon. And you know I was really hoping I could finally fry me some bacon strips on my way to work.
[Nexus 4 General] BakaPhoenix:
Air is a very good thermal isolator, i read that many desktop ips lcs have a maximum teamp. of 35/40 C° so if if the cpu heats a lot it can create problems. I don't know how much is the max temp that this ips can withstand tough.
[Nexus 4 General] shadehh:
I really think this whole heat thing is a kernel issue at the moment. I remember owning the one x since very 1.26 or was it an earlier one? Either way, the phone would really get VERY hot. After a few updates i barely felt the heat. Maybe when playing games or whatever, all in all the updates solved the issue. I think google will manage to sort it out, i can't imagine them being that stupid.
[Nexus 4 General] johnny13oi:
I guess if you are concerned with the LCD becoming damaged then you could just put the thermal pad on the other side to make the whole motherboard (minus spring contacts) contact the glass back and spread the heat outside including the battery.

And yes air is a very good thermal insulator so all the heat is just getting trapped inside the phone. Gotta use some thermal pads to conduct that heat to a panel exposed to the outside.

These are all just suggestions that I would do if I were to have one in my hands right now.
[Nexus 4 General] Capt.PP:
The bottom line is if the SOC or N4 design is flawed internally which created thermal throttling, then there won't be much help for inserting thermal pads. I have tried this with HD2 when it had thermal runaway. There was a huge thread figuring out how to cure it by many methods as far as putting the motherboard in the oven to melt the soldering at exact time and temperature. The thermal pads method only decreased a few Fahrenheit which wasn't enough to cure if there was a thermal problems. My HD2's SOC was made by Qualcomm. Something definitely don't add up with bad benchmarks scores, thermal problems. Could future updates cure this? Only time can tell.
[Nexus 4 General] whitewindhtc:
I've done something similar with my OCed Samsung i9000, but instead of using thermal pads, I used thermal paste. Similar to the Nexus 4 the cpu IC is sandwiched between the PCB and the metal chassis. The metal chassis becomes a massive heatsink for the CPU which dropped my CPU temp. by 10oC (~17oF) at maximum load.

After 9 months of use there hasn't been any damage or deterioration of the display screen (AMOLED).

Details can be found in the i9000 forum.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1605517

[Nexus 4 General] drbrainsol:
The only problem i can see with this method is warranty. I'm 100% sure that even if there is no warranty void stickers on the screws they won't accept to fix a phone that has been tinkered with :P

And try to wipe thermal paste without leaving any trace ;) you will fail :)
[Nexus 4 General] draugaz:
It is not flawed as such, it is just overdimensioned.

In essence it is a double APQ8060A + quicker (more power hungry) GPU + additional management circuitry. So it should not surprise, that under full load (benchmarks) it burns through more than double of the usual dual core Krait phone power. While having similar dimensions/power dissipation capacity.

In their marketing Qualcomm positioned this SoC for Tablets. Now you have it in the phone. Is it bad? Not really, full power quadcore tasks is not a realistic task for a phone. And for a second or two (after this it does not matter anymore since your phone "lags") the existing cooling is perfectly adequate.

One thing where Qualcomm/LG/Google could do better are the GPU drivers. Which currently seem badly tuned.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snuffalofagus:
Changing kernels is exactly like changing ROMs. You flash them, although, you have to wipe cache and dalvik cache every time you change a kernel. Look in the developer section for our phone, there are 3 kernel choices: Matr1x, Marmite, and Air Kernel. Test each out on different ROMs, find your favorite. Be sure though, if you're going to be hopping between Android versions (4.0.4 (ICS), 2.3.7 (GB), and 4.1.1/4.1.2 (JB)) You find the version of the kernel that corresponds with whatever version of Android the ROM you're using is running. As far as I know, Marmite is only available for JB, Matr1x has kernels for all versions of Android (GB-JB), and I think Air only has ICS and JB versions. Hope this helps!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vidaljs:
Hi..

It either some junk files u have floating around ur SD card..

Or

Are u tweaking the CPU when u install the ROMs?

Or

Are u using titanium backup to restore any of ur apps?

Try to do the entire factor reset/ wipe both cache & dalvik but also flash a zip file call "wipe all" ( it formats everything under storage and mounts except the SD card stuff)

Then flash the newest slim bean 3.0 it comes with a good kernel

Flash it and do not add anything. Check if the sleep reboot issues still occur.

If not then make a backup b4 adding ur apps and restores since one of those can be causing it.

I hope it works... good luck
