[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tatltael:
LG did a great job in Google's, mine and most people on this forum's opinion.

At least better than Samsung did at the nexus line.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sav_uk:
X-Phone isn't going to be a Nexus device according to various posts I've read on these forums.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisastrous:
I'm asking what did lg do that impressed Google since they said that Motorola has done nothing to impress them
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
Apparently they impressed them enough that they wanted to use their product. They could have used Samsung, HTC, Asus, Motorola or probably whomever tickled their fancy. They chose LG.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tatltael:
I think most manufacturers like Samsung would've proposed a nexus with slightly lower specs than their flagship to ensure there was no competition between the two.

But LG was crazy enough to make one with the exact same specs as its flagship. And I guess it paid off for them as well.

I believe only on sprint. My buddy has a og (att) and he says that it has the same camera.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] davwman:
Better camera. Maybe. But again...the price point. My canon is for pics. My phone camera is for those situations where my daughter is doing something new or funny and I don't have my canon ready to go. With that said, this is my second lg android phone, and I've had nothing but great experiences with both. Lg isnt as bad as we think. Are there so called “better" manufacturers, maybe, but in some respect, a lot of these manufacturers use the same material alot. Quality control is a big deal, anyone can assemble electronics, but ensuring that the products are assembled to standards is the biggest part of the assembly line industry.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monte666:
Lg is a bunch of d#$ks if this phone wasn't a nexus I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole. I still have a bad taste in my mouth from my g2x great phone little manufacturer or carrier support. That said this phone is awesome

Hey guys OP here. Decided on the note 2. By far the best phone on the market. There are so many positives about the note 2 its impossible to list them all
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigDig:
Yeah right! Note 2 will be outdated in 2 months....And it`s not a phone, it`s phablet!!!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Apart from the sammy bloatware it is definately one the best phones on the market. Had it myself for a while but wanted the N4 and didn`t regret it so far. If you root it i would advice to debloat the phone with ROMCleaner.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrDarkKV:
"According to Motorola sources the device will feature software never seen before in a smartphone." - So potentially a new platform, - not android?

"It would be available on all carriers as well as the Play store for an insanely low price" - Cheap.. Since when is insanely cheap = good?

Its just my opinion, but Motorola are pure sh*t now, they died after the original Razer, plus they use cheap parts and their "new" phones have the worse build quality. - Again just my opinion.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlleN7:
I HOPE SO! I Don't want a new Nexus to replace mine just months after I got the 4! :mad:

If The Nexus 5 has a 5" screen, then it'll make me that much happier knowing I got my N4. A 4.7" screen is already huge!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snapper.fishes:
Well talk about painting a vivid picture...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NardVa:
I don't think the X Phone is gone be 350 or less. New phones with high end specs cost 750 and up off jump. Nexus 4 was a steal at 350.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3UR0TR45H:
I actually bought my nexus 4 from someone who works for Motorola. I grilled him about the x phone and all I could get was that he said it would run Key Lime, big battery, and come with a lot of hype.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackplague1347:
Here's how I feel about the N4:

+ speed of the OS

+ multitasking

+ development community/hackability

+ fast updates from google

+ hspa+ is plenty fast; the lack of LTE is overblown

+- stock keyboard is very good; autocorrect is great; swiping is good most of the time, with the exception of trying to type words such as "too" which usually show up as "to"

+- high res screen; colors need to be adjusted. Though if you're not comparing to another phone, you'll quickly get used to it and it'll be fine. And no, I'm not "coming from AMOLED." Unless, of course, the HTC One X and iPhone 5 are AMOLED now [hint: they're not]. Outdoor screen visibility is so-so.

+- battery is "okay" stock. I've had better battery with cm10.1 and franco kernel

- camera is merely "okay"; flash is overwhelming in low-light scenarios

- limited storage options (I have the 8gb; currently have 3.81gb available while using cm10.1 and with one nandroid on the phone)

- on screen buttons take up enough screen that the 4.7" screen is functionally similar to a 4.3" screen (some ROMs negate this with pie controls -- I have not tried them)

- the phone can get very hot if you use it for any CPU/GPU-taxing apps (games come immediately to mind)

I'll add more items as I think of them. I keep hopping back and forth between my Note 2 (which I bought several months after my N4) and my Nexus 4, so I'm sure there are things missing from my list.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] catharsis3k:
I went snowboarding today and took tons of great pictures . I came home and tried to upload the files to my computer. At first I tried bluetooth but it didn't work for some reason. I then plugged in the USB cable and attempted to manually copy them. I couldn't find them on either my phone or my sd card. Furthermore, I saw a folder called "Blackberry" in triplicate on my sd card ( the card was in my old BB ) and I decided to erase it. It erased 2 copies and said it couldn't erase the third one. After that... poof, ALL media files are gone. Literally everything. Folders are intact but the files are all gone! On the phone, on the SD card, in every folder: camera, pictures, whatsapp, videos, you name it.. all gone!

I am running AOKP d2att 9.30.2012 with 4.1.

I was able to recover the files from the SD card with an undelete software, by putting the card in my old BB which exports it through UMS. But the S3 has no UMS option. I then spent the next 2h trying to get the S3 to export its internal storage through UMS and hoping I could undelete the files.

Isn't this just crazy ? Anyone had anything similar happen to them ? Do I have any other options at this point ?

P.S. Didn't have time to backup the new pics...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] catharsis3k:
I made *some* progress.

I installed 'DiskDigger' app which was able to retrieve the deleted files from the external sd card ( which I was already able to do by mounting it in the BB and using a desktop app for undeleting ). DiskDigger also worked on the internal sdcard and it recovered about 500 deleted files, like really old files from months ago but NONE from the Camera folder or other folders which contained images/videos. They appear to be mostly files which were displayed in the browser, used by Facebook, etc.

I booted my device in CWM and ran e2fsck in adb shell without any luck.

Where could my files be ? Are they really deleted ? If so, why doesn't the 'undelete' software pick them up ? How can videos, camera photos, whatsapp images, pictures be gone in one instant ? This makes no sense at all!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] topshins:
Hey everyone! Long time lurker, finally had an issue and needed to post--thanks for having such an awesome community.

Basically I tried to use Mobile Odin for the first time tonight, but failed to properly install the FlashKernel necessary with the light version before attempting to flash a kernel. Now my phone just hangs at the Samsung Galaxy SII boot image and does noting. I can get into download mode, but Odin isn't recognizing my phone.

Any ideas on what I can do? If I need to provide any more info, just let me know. Thanks in advance for all your help!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
What kernel did you flash and did you install a wrong flash kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] topshins:
I was just trying to flash the basic EL26 kernel with CWM. I don't believe it was a wrong one at all, as it was from rwilco12's android repository.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
If you keep holding down PWR + VOL UP, can you get in CWM 5.0.2.7?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] topshins:
I can get into recovery, but it seems like it's stock, not CWM. Think a factory reset would help at all?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Nope. I guess you installed wrong flashkernel before flashing el26 from the mobile odin lite thread?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] topshins:
I didn't install a flashkernel at all. For some brilliant reason, I thought my device wasn't listed, event though the app prompted me to view the thread and download the proper one. So I hit cancel and proceeded to flash. That's where my issue lies.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] themisterwilson:
Dude. Not the most intelligent thing you could have done. Why would you be so careless with something like this?

Anyhow,I would search for and download the drivers for this phone and then hopefully your PC will recognize the device and you should be able to desktop Odin that kernel from there. Just do some reading and make sure you flash things the right way. For God's sake pay attention to the warnings. Don't skip steps. Your lucky you didn't brick your device.

Best of luck to you. Past your progress and folks will help :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bill9999:
I didn't think you needed to install the flashkernel to install the el26 cwm kernel with mobile odin lite. I installed it when I flashed the EL26 CWM kernel but later saw a QBKing video where I thought he said it wasn't required?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
At this point you're going to need a PC/Mac probably. Hold Vol Down + Power to get to download mode (You'll have to press Vol Up when you get to the warning screen) and then I would honestly suggest getting a full restore one click and using that to make sure there are no lingering effects. Heimdall can do the same with a full restore .tar.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] themisterwilson:
I think the "flash" kernel that mobile Odin prompts you to download is what it uses to flash whatever you're flashing. At least that was my understanding. I could be entirely wrong. But yeah, like garwynn said, he's best off getting into download mode and using one of the one-click full restores
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] topshins:
Hey everyone, thanks so much for your replys. After messing around with drivers and such I removed everything from my PC, then did a factory reset of the phone. I turned it on and plugged it in to the computer while it sat at the boot screen and all of the drivers started installing. From here it booted into Odin mode and it recognized it! So glad I did screw myself by not being more careful, needless to say I'll be checking things a little more closely before I blindly flash things. Thanks again for being so responsive!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Teknician:
You could use Odin3 v1.85 and StockCWM-EL26 and that should install CWM 5.0.2.7. I have both if you cant locate either. Dont recall if there was an Odin EL26 or 29 1-click because I would have probably had them on 1 of my 10 hard drives around here. I do have the EL26 zip and md5 files. I presume you can get into Odin mode?

Curious if there is any other ways to achieve S-Off on an already rooted EVO hboot 1.12 other than DirtyRacun as I am not having any luck with that method.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] P.Mobile:
lazy panda works if u have hboot 1.12 they dont support it anymore but it still works on hboot 1.12 i kno someone who used it a weeks ago.. dam i just asked if they had the file still and they dont.. ask around someone should still have the lazy panda file im sure
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] spokenwordd:
I am also on hboot 1.12 and am currently S-ON rooted and HTCDEV unlocked. Looking for an S-Off method other than DirtyRacun because I have x64 Windows and would really rather not update my hboot for S-OFF or mess around with Linux.

If I could get a hold of the Lazy Panda file would it be helpful based on my situation?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Yesterday I did the deed, and got S-OFF. I was running a 1.12 hboot after downgrading several months earlier. Had to RUU up to a 1.19 hboot for the Racun to do it's thing. Otherwise it was a quick, and painless operation. If you need help go the #unlimited IRC channel on freenode.net.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] decayer177:
If you're already hboot 1.12, lazypanda is a simple executable that needs no more than administrative privileges and 5-10 minutes.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] reeher3287:
Why not upgrade from 1.12 to 1.19 to use dirtyracun? Only reason why not to upgrade before was because there wasn't an s off method for 1.19 lol

Problem now is, Lazy Panda is no longer supported by Team Unlimited. If you get into a tight spot and need help, you're potentially going to be screwed. Having said that, myself and many others have successfully used it since support for it ceased. Risk versus reward, I suppose.

How do we run the dll file

I didn't want to start a thread on this and its not an issue that I'm concerned over or view as a problem nor do I know if this belongs in this thread but I wanted to share this anyways. My bootloader banner, you know the one that once said dirtyracun has completely disappeared.

Does it say locked or unlocked? Have you recently ruu'd ? That will eliminate the dirty racun hboot with the stock one

No experimental roms.Tried Scotty's relock and nothing I'm assuming its gone for good, I'm also assuming no harm will come from it being missing. Could my hboot be screwed up like harmfully screwed up? BTW sorry for using your thread for this since I'm not sure what happened and knowing when I flashed the modded hboot made by this utility all was fine with the flash and the utility it's just I was trying to ask your opinion personally.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] junkmail9:
I am mystified. I doubt that your hboot is screwed up. More likely, there is yet another mystery setting deep in the phone that turns that pink box on and/or off, similar to the bit that resets your phone to "LOCKED" (versus "RELOCKED"). Somehow you (or something) accidentally turned it off. If you ever figure it out, I'm sure the community will benefit from the information. In the mean time, I wouldn't worry about it.
