hi there

i've got exact the same issue! After a reboot. the sensor is working and everything it's fine. then after a few hours autobrightness is not working. I'm on carbon rom 1.7 and matrix kernel. I've tried the suggested solutions from this topic. Uninstalled Light Flow, removed auto brightness toggle from notification bar and so on. with androsense and other apps I've tested and the sensor isn`t giving any feedback after some hours. Now I don't know. Is this a software or a hardware problem?

Or anybody have other workarounds or solutions? This behavior is very frustrating. Thank you guys.

Hi

Having a few issues without restoring backup to factory rom . Got a corrupt backup.

Does anyone have, or point me in the right direction to restore the manufacturers standard rom on a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 WiFi (GT-N8000 UK version).

Please if anyone can help it will be really appreciated.

Thanks.

I want to buy it but I heard that so many people's Nexus 4 phones shattered out of the blue??? I treat my phones with delicacy but these people say their phones broke from being in their pocket with nothing else in it. I have a SGS2 and it doesn't have a single scratch or bend or any flaw on its hardware visible view
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dknotty:
Agree. I have had an SGSII for 18 months, 12 months without any sort of screen protector and I haven't had a single scratch on the screen (touch wood).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Mine and most others are fine, shattered out of the blue is a misnomer really, just means the owner doesn't know how it got broken, obviously it's not going to spontaneously shatter.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henryy97:
thanks guys. I'd like if some other people also shared their hardware experience because I don't want to regret buying this phone hence I live in the Bahamas. this means I won't be able to return it if something happened as quick and would cost a lot of money :rolleyes:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hung0702:
There's already a ton of threads and discussion on this, but I'll oblige OP and provide my experiences once again.

Some background on my phone usage: I came from a Galaxy S which had the previous generation of Gorilla Glass. After over two years of heavy use without a case or screen cover, my phone had two very minor but broad scratches that could only been seen with the screen off and at certain angles under certain lighting. Screen on, you would never know the phone wasn't brand new.

My N4 arrived last Monday (two days use thus far) and I removed the packaging films from the front and rear. Haven't got a case but I ordered the Poetic Slimbook case, which I expect in December.

I haven't dropped the N4 and have placed it on many different surfaces (Thanksgiving table in a room with over a dozen eaters, so the table wasn't very clean). My phones have always sat in my front pocket. While the N4 has been occupying this same space, I've heard it hit a few tables and counters, which left me grimacing on the inside.

However, I'm glad to say that my N4 is pristine and has zero scratches, scuffs, or signs of wear. Both glass faces have stayed spotless and the oleophobic coating works very well. The plastic edges have not scuffed either, and don't seem too have picked up any oil/grime.

I really don't expect my phone to get scratched in any way over the next few years. I only got the case for extra protection when I am out or traveling. Also, I like flip cases :P

I wouldn't recommend this phone if you tend to be reckless with your phone and can't own up to it, so you make threads saying the screen randomly cracked. Those people would probably "bump" into a Window and break it, then blame the manufacturer for not making the glass bulletproof. I'm sure a lot of iPhone 4/4S users have scratched or cracked the glass faces on their phones, but no one said those phones were too fragile. The N4 is just as durable, if not more durable that the previous generation iPhone. If you are honest with yourself and think that you would mutilate an iPhone 4/4S, you should get a case and screen protector for the N4. It's not unusually fragile in any sense. Pretty durable in my opinion.

Maybe in two to three years, I'll end up with a few minor scratches that are invisible when the screen is on. For me, it's a phone, not a piece of art that is meant to be seen and not held. I really doubt that I'll scratch the phone now that I'm a bit older and wiser. The scratches on my old phone can be attributed to very drunken nights and surprise encounters with broken glass containers. Or perhaps some an unfortunate meeting with silicate on my old lab bench. Regardless, I learned how to take care of my phone without babying it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] potatomaster:
No offense, but assuming everyone whose Nexus 4 spontaneously shattered isn't telling the whole story or is otherwise irresponsible is jumping to conclusions.

I set mine down to charge, returned 2 hours later, and the back had shattered around the speaker hole and radiated cracks throughout the rest of the back. I have no explanation for this other than the glass is potentially also sensitive to temperature change (warming battery/cool countertop). In any case, the fragility of the back of this phone is patently absurd for a mobile device and we can only hope Google/LG step up to rectify it. The internals of the phone are otherwise fantastic and it's a powerful device.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kanetheninja:
That being said, there are a very small number of people who's phone "breaks all by itself", I would imagine given any population that has a new device there will be a similar number of people who reports these kinds of problems. If you're too worried about it, throw a case on it.

Then again, maybe the case will break on its own too.

Well, you can always put a case around the case.

One time I was at my brother's place and he had this untouched Krispy Kreme donut just sitting on the table.

Two hours later he comes back and sees a bite in it and asked me who had eaten it...

My response?... nooo ideaaa! :D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweaked:
News at 11. Guy with 4 posts and no credibility states his phone spontaneously cracked the back screen. :rolleyes:

.....

I dropped this phone from 4 feet standing up from a chair on the patio, it was forcefully thrown from my lap, flipped multiple times, and skidded on "Cement", and not a scratch. Unless these ppl got some weird defaulted phone they are full of it.

Would I want to drop it again? Nope. :( But, the phone won't break from thin air. In fact every pic I have seen that had a broken screen/back, you could see the pressure spot where it was hit, smashed, and otherwise bludgeoned.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henryy97:
Thanks, very realistic perspective. I really don't know whether to get the SGS3 or N4 :( the n4 is so sexy but many people say its fragile and I treat my phones with the most extreme care I can give. I've never dropped my SGS2 except thrown on my bed.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
If your used to taking care of your devices, then you should have no problem with this awesome N4!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyvram1:
similar story; mine slid off a paper towel machine in a public restroom hit HARD right on the front glass on the tile floor, bounced up and landed on the back. i thought for sure one or both sides was going to have a huge crack but to my pleasant surprise, neither side had any scratches.

...now if it spontaneously cracks the next time i charge it..i will deny any responsibility :laugh:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Henryy97:
woah.. I guess the phone isn't as fragile as it sounds.. why are people saying there are random cracks already though? are those just false rumors to make LG look bad? I'm so afraid the phone will break out of the blue..
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poopymt3g:
I was on the phone at a party someone bumped into me and I dropped it onto a stone tile floor..I'm 6feet tall so that's a pretty decent drop..the only mark I have on the phone is a small nick in the bezel..both front and back are in tact..don't go throwing it around but id say its pretty solid :laugh:

Hello,

im not really sure what happened to my phone. I rooted it a while ago to install some ics version via clockwork mod.

Then, not really sure what i was doing, i tried to root it again several times when i wanted to change the custom rom.

now i cannot root the device anymore. its now running stock 2.3.4 but i want to go back to original lg software to start all over again.

as there isnt going to be an official update any time soon, which would have solved my problem, i now need help.

i dont know what to do. im really confused.

please help and excuse my bad english :)

Hi guys.

An issue I noted was that my messages would appear above my friend's messages even though he messaged me first.

Does anyone else have this problem? A reboot seems to temporarily fix it, but I can't seem to pinpoint what exactly causes this. Thanks!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garciaw:
That is a problem that has existed for quite some time. It is something about gtalk displaying messages ordered by received time, but incomming messages use a different time than system time, or something like that. You can check that the messages are sorted by time, but incomming messages have wrong timestamps. It happened to my GFs phone once and the fix was checking (or unchecking) "automatic" in Settings>Date & Time settings. Very weird, I know...

Has anyone figured out how to allow multiple users share applications across users and Google accounts? It's my tablet but I wanted to give my girlfriend her own homescreen (she has her own google account). Is there away to allow her to share some of my applications?

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] springy:
Another question...

The application that is installed, will it be installed again on the other user environment taking up double space? If not then I might opt for the 16GB...
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djd338:
I'm using the app called Multiuser App Share. It works good for most apps. Those requiring root are no-go tho, as is most paid apps. The 2ed user does take up its own storage space. Some is shared but it's mostly settings stuff & requires little space. I'm rooted with 3 backups & that's using 16gb on my 32gb device. Backups are large as you could expect having to backup 2 users data.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] springy:
If you do not use this Multi User App Share applications, say I have "account1@gmail.com" and I install Angry Birds therefore I have the associate link on this account.

On "account2@gmail.com" I also install angry birds and associate it to this account. When I install it for the second time on the secondary user, does it download the same .apk or is the OS smart enough to realise, hey the primary user or other users has this .apk, lets not download it and use the same .apk.

This is not related to data storage as it is stored on the /u/0/ for the primary user and /u/1/ from my understanding so I am aware of that.

Don't care with applications which requires roots as I read that the secondary user cannot get root. Just care about storage and big .apk may be a problem if I buy the 16GB Nexus 10.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djd338:
The 2 users are pretty much separated. As far as apps & storage, each user is separate having their very own apks, app data, media & media storage, pictures, etc. Sorta like having 2 complete tablets on one. Ex.: Right now each user on my tablet is using about 3.5 gb of data/media storage for 7 gb total. I don't know of any apk that is actually "shared", as in both users use the same single apk. The share-app I spoke of above allows an apk to be installed from the primary to the secondary. It's for installing apks AFAIK. Some say they can share games, but not so on mine yet. The tablet is still new to me, but this is what I'm seeing so far.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tesla67:
Actually. I run multi right now and it doesn't redownload the apps it just grants (or so it seams...) the user access to the app. Now the data for apps are separate. Then again I have one account I use for my apps so both users have that account to get apps from.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tesla67:
This was a test to show you using my single app account and instilling nova on the "test" account. Nova is well over a gig if not two and you'll notice the storage usage on the test account
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djd338:
I see what your saying. Looking closer & playing with the Multiuser app, I allowed the 2ed user the use of Deadtrigger installed in the Primary account. Then going into 2ed account & opening that game, there was no waiting for a download - it simply opened & was available for play.... Cool
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] springy:
So it looks like the primary account needs to be added as well to the secondary account and then things should work?

djd338 is that what you done on yours or was Deadtrigger was installed or linked to two separate accounts?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djd338:
I only installed it one time & on the primary user account. All else happened within the Multiuser App Share-app. Deadtrigger was installed to Primary. The Multiuser app opened & the box for Deadtrigger was checked to allow sharing. Opening 2ed user account allowed for immediate play. Paid games (Nova3 & GTA) where also checked to allow sharing, but when 2ed user opened them on that side, a popup appeared saying it was not allowed.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tesla67:
Yah you might want to try having a Google account for just you paid apps like how I do then any device or account can have them with no trouble and you don't have to worry about other people going through your email ;)
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johan1976:
There should be some way to lock everything but Google play access when you add account on secondary user. I have disabled all syncing on my Google account which I have added to my wife's and kids account. That way at least the calendar and Gmail app is not automatically showing my things. But I think that there are place for improvement with multiuser support. For example shared folders so all users easily can access common files.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codewisp:
There are 2 methods as far as I know:

1) Add the Google account with apps to the 2nd user, when you install a 'common' app, you'll notice that it'll finish downloading instantly, as if it didn't really download anything. I believe what happens is that the 'restriction' for that specific app is removed for the 2nd user, which brings us to #2

2) The 'multiuser app share' does exactly this -- it edits the package-restrictions.xml of the secondary user and removes the offending lines.

Don't quote me on this, I'm not really an expert on the matter, but I have actually manually enabled apps through this method (#2). My first try got my 2nd user messed up (after reboot, it went through setup again) but it magically 'installed' all my apps from the primary user. The subsequent attempts worked just fine ('enabling' individual apps)
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] springy:
The only problem I see is that the multi share app might break after another OTA update. I am sure Google will sort this out in 4.2.2 which is rumour to be coming out soon (or has according to some reports)

Running a test secondary user on my HTC Inspire/Synergy's 4.2.1 SR6 (OFFICIAL codefireX Builds - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2003273).

I have found that it separates "users" data/apps fine (Gallery shows "0" files - GREAT!!! But, the app "File Manager" is listed in the available apps, which of course you can use to view the contents of the SD card - and the other user's files.

So how do you block certain apps from being used? I've tried Titanium's "freeze", but it only froze the app on my user profile, and the other user profile still had it running.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
I just got my N10 today.

I backed up ym phone with Titanium and rooted the tablet.

Then I made some accounts, mine as owner, my GF's as a second. Then I restored my backup using my account.

MOST apps were then on my GF's, but they don't have their own data.. this is quite stupid to be honest. A 1GB game means 2GB downloaded, despite it could quite easily share the same location.

[Nexus 4 General] techmatlock:
I was using some hi-fi earphones on this phone and was getting enough power from the phone. I have DSPManager equalizer installed and I nearly had to have the volume bar full just to get decent volume. Kind of sucks, but I can't complain too much for how good the price was. Will any developers be working on this chipset?
[Nexus 4 General] titeuf007:
i think chinese phone could be great and could be compare with this incredible phone
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
Which hi-fi earphones you are using?

With your case, I suggest you buy a headphone amp like Fiio E5 to deal with your high impedence headphones.
[Nexus 4 General] decepticon:
How good are the Fiio E5's? I have been looking for something to give my 8323's a little something extra and does it work with an inline mic?
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
It's just a headphone amp. I haven't tried with an mic so I don't know. Don't expect too much from its price point.

But for 99% people E5 will work great. I'm using E5 with my laptop and Grado headphone.
[Nexus 4 General] decepticon:
Not expecting too much, just a little extra "oomph" in power to where I don't have to have the volume up to 100% and it still sound low.
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
E5 can definitely do that.

I just tried connecting my Grado to N4 without the amp. And the volume is perfect for me.

Also tried connect the phone to E5 and does amplify a bit, not a lot though.

There's also an E6 for a few bucks more. The power output spec:

E5:

Output Power: 100mW (32ohms Load) 18mW (300ohms Load)

E6:

Output Power: 150mW (16Ohm), 16mW (300Ohm)

Fiio has a whole line of portable headphone amps. Check them out on Amazon.com
[Nexus 4 General] decepticon:
Thanks, I kinda like the look of the E6 more, it's less "iPod shuffle"
[Nexus 4 General] yokken:
The E6 is a good little amp but it will only drive headphones/earphones volume-wise. If you want something that will actually make them sound better, you'll have to step it up to an E7 or an E11. I have an E17 and it's great. The bonus with the E7 and E17 is that you can plug it into your computer via USB and use it as a DAC as well as an amp without installing any drivers.
[Nexus 4 General] mesasone:
An amp will not make the source sound better. It takes the existing signal and amplifies it. If it is a poorly designed amplifier, it may even add distortion and make the signal worse. You may hear an improvement if the amplifier on the SOC can not adequately power your headphones (likely due to either high impedance or low sensitivity, or both) and you drive it into distortion. So, if this is the case then you may hear an improvement. Given some of the lack luster results from the GSMArena testing, it may be more than just the amplifier though.

Some phones with USB OTG can use mobile USB DACs, which would likely improve SQ considering the state of sound quality on mobile SOCs. They also tend to have decent quality amplifiers as well. I'm not sure we can do this with the Nexus 4 yet, but it is possible on the GS3 and I'd suspect it's only a matter of time before we get it here as well.
[Nexus 4 General] sexualrug:
If you are having volume issues its almost certainly because your headphones are low impedance. Lower than the inbuilt amplifier can supply. You can easily verify by plugging in another set of crappy earphones.

As was suggested, amp is your solution or you can use one of the phones that have a more powerful amplifier. I guess some of the HTC ones may have that though I have never used them.
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
Most USB DACs under $100 are cheaply made anyway. So there's no point to further drain your phone battery with a very minimal improvement over sound quality.

If you are really into it, use local FLAC and a small headphone amp. The best balance between mobility and audio.
[Nexus 4 General] noobdeagle:
The DAC in the nexus 4 drives high end IEMs easily, using hi end hifi equipment on phones and expecting it to work as Intended is bad logic
