Then I'll be swapping the SSD in for the 500GB optical drive that it comes with and installing the new software from http://www.hackseagatesatellite.com/. Later I am thinking about possibly matching the specs on the battery and replacing it with a higher capacity battery, although switching to the SSD should increase battery life due to the fact that they draw less power than a traditional optical HD. I have not been able to find any good info on the exact battery specs so I am going to have to wait till I take the unit apart. Might end up having to build a new enclosure for it, but image 12+hrs or battery life (Really happy to be technically inclined)

I will keep everyone posted on my progress.

**UPDATE**

It seems that i have lucked out.. the Seagate is on sale today on amazon for cyber Monday for $99.99. I just ordered mine now. Should be here is a few days. Might have the SSD and new software on it by the end of the week.. woohoo.. Ill let everyone know how this progresses once everything gets to my house.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitroz:
Hello All,

I'm in need of advice if this is down to battery calibration or I have a faulty battery.

I got a replacement Nexus 4 3 days ago and I have been using it as normal. But I have noticed something strange going on with it.

I charged my phone to 100% and put my phone into airplane mode overnight, as I did with my Galaxy Nexus (It saves battery and I have a house phone for emergencies if somebody wants to contact me). I wake up the next morning around 9 hours later, I lose 1% battery which is normal, but when I use the phone for, say, 20 seconds, the battery instantly drains down to 95%. When I turn the screen off, and leave it until I get into work. I get into work 30 minutes later, turn the screen on and use it for a further 40-50 seconds, the battery then goes down to 92%, and the same thing goes throughout the day. I'm currently at 77% which only 12mins screen on time.

Would this be down to calibration? I haven't actually calibrated the battery and I rooted and flashed a custom ROM on the first day.

I had similar issue on my old, broken Nexus 4 so its not a coincidence.

Any help is appreciated.

-N
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OverTheBelow:
I wouldn't worry about it. It's common with new phones (and new ROMs mind you) for the battery life reading to be a bit weird. Ultimately you'll still get the same battery life as normal, it's just the reading that will take a little time to become accurate as it calibrates itself.

Try Batterycalibration:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration

When I first got an extended battery for my old Xperia X10 I would often see the battery life *apparently* going up after going down, without actually charging. :p

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fihlvein:
Reminds me about HTC Sensation. It behaved so strangely with the battery readings. Jumped many percentages at once, or stayed at 100% for a while. Also after rebooting, the reading might have been quite different each reboot.

I truly, deeply, did NOT like it. It was horrible to keep track of the real juice level the battery had.

So I wonder if anyone else is seeing this behavior?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djkinetic:
I just thought its normal, for the first couple cycles, and since I flash a rom quite often was hard to pinpoint any of my battery drain problems, eventually though I found that my battery drain issues, were from the CPU not switching back to the 384mhz slot properly, set my min cpu speed with voltage control and now my drain issues are fixed, and I dont have those haywire readings.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshnichols189:
Calibrating the battery with that app does nothing. The reason you see the battery graph go up without charging after usage is because the graph is more of an "estimate". If you are using it extremely heavily for a long period of time it will give an "estimate" of where it is and then when you stop using it, it will realize it is no longer under load and appear to "recharge".

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stryder5:
How many hours do you end up getting out of it before it dies? And what settings do you get out of that?

I don't pay attention to my battery every few minutes, but look at what I get out of a whole day. Depending on usage, I get 2% to 8% drain per hour. On average, it's closer to 6%. Hope that helps.

Sorry for the noob question but I can't quite work out from the threads whether root is possible to attain on the above build.

I can see that I can't downgrade the above build to anything other than 2.3.6, but that's fine with me (and her)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peachpuff:
Are the dimensions of the galaxy nexus and lg nexus 4 identical? If no, do you still want to take a risk with your precious phone falling out?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pedxing:
The answer is.... Sort of. It will fit and it is held tightly (tighter than the gn).

The power and volume rubber buttons on the dock are wrong by at least a quarter inch. The power button is unusable and you have to press really hard to turn the screen on and off. The up rocker on the dock nothing and the down rocker hits the up volume.

The most problematic issue is the USB plug. It doesn't quite line up. It worked but I'm concerned about pressure put on the plug latterly. You'd definitely want to trim this for regular use.

Overall.... Not recommended.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] chronostorm:
Just wondering, did you shake it or did you tap it around the camera?

With my friend's Optimus, it seems that it only makes the rattling noise if it's tapped. (that, or knocked against your knuckle) When it's shaken, there's pretty much no sound.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] \m/:
It sounds like it is coming from the earpiece area. However, this could be that it's merely the only passage for the sound to travel through. Either way, mine rattles with a shake, tap, and knock.

I guess I better open it up and see what's going on. Wish me luck. :fingers-crossed:

Edit: Confirmed, it is the camera. It is not seated firmly in the housing. Since it is connected via a ribbon, applying pressure will not fix it. Aside from applying adhesive underneath, I'm not sure there is really anything that can be done about it. However, it does not affect functionality, so the real question is whether anything SHOULD be done about it. It's just annoying.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] my.ads0:
I was wondering if I should return it or start a thread asking about it.

Ditto. If I tap the back of the phone by the camera, I hear the same thing.

Actually I did both and all kinds of movement and it was tight...Update though now as of the 3rd of December I noticed I now too have the faint little rattle from the camera lens area.

Workaround

Hi all

This is the workaround:

Do a search for a business that you visit a lot and that is local to your current location, e.g. your employer's business.

When the results come up, swipe over to local and select the one you want.

When the location page comes up, click on the address. This will launch Bing maps.

Pin this location to the start screen.

Now, when you open the pinned location, you go to the address card and then can click on the address to open Bing maps.

God bless

Now, I know I can tether to my N7 with my N4, but I feel like i am paying for the convenience of just having the N7 ready to go. If I run out of 4G data on my N7, then I will just tether. However, both of these plans do me no good when I am out on the road because tmo 4G coverage sucks balls once you get out of large cities. So I have the verizon hotspot, which is PERFECT because their rural coverage is second to none. So if you think you are going to be going on lots of road trips in between large cities, then you should get a verizon Mifi hotspot. AT&T also has decent coverage because I tested out one of their hotspots a while back.

Hello All

I have been following the open Kang Project and tried an upgrade from JB Milestone1 to unofficial release 26.

The install went fine but when it rebooted prior to the setup it fails. I had done factory reset prior to this install. It makes a mount point below the root named 0 and attempts to install the update in that location.

Long and short of it I had to roll back to Milestone1 and now everything is installed 1 folder deeper than it should be. As a result none of my backups etc work.

So here is the question how can I get this back to factory settings in terms of the file structure etc.

Thanks
