You're not all that bright are you?

Because of the Nexus 4 LG will **** all over Samsung in 2013. Yes both the Nexus 4 and the Optimus G take a massive spray **** on ANY current Sammy.

LG is partnered with Google so LG will make as many Nexus 4's as Google tells them to. It's still way early, the phone has been out for a month and already approaching 500,000 units. Considering how poorly the launch went those are fantastic numbers.

Why would LG not want to make a phone that has put themselves on top of the food chain.."Yea this beast of a phone we made for Google that EVERYONE wants...yea we're just gonna scrap it" another guy says "Yea you're right, I hate money and being the best too"

Motorola is owned by Google so they're working with themselves for a replacement? No.

Motorola won't be making a Nexus device until they break their relationship with Verizon.

It's not like Google has forgotten how poorly Verizon did the Galaxy Nexus...Google learned that carriers like Verizon ruined the Nexus experience for the Android die hards like us.

Aside from that Google has already come out and said the next Nexus could be ANYBODY. I'm betting on HTC or LG again.

Ultimately the current shortage is because of Google themselves not LG. LG is the manufacturer. They produce the number of Nexus 4s Google tells them too. No more and no less.

While we're speculating as to why the Nexus 4 is made from unobtanium look back one year to the Galaxy Nexus. The Galaxy Nexus retailed out of the gate at like $799 unlocked. A year later a new Nexus is released with better specs, build quality, etc..for less the HALF the price unlocked! Think

The Nexus 4 is a paradigm shifting game changer because of the price, the specs, and the fact that you and your phone are finally free to do whatever and go wherever the fuch you want to. It's kind of a big deal. Google and LG hit one out of the park. The average consumer wasn't prepared to be blindsided by such an awesome deal. Google and LG wasn't ready either.

They bought Motorola for the gazillion patents Motorola has. As for smartphone oems Motorola is the low on the totem pole. They make one or two great devices a year and their Verizon exclusive....who...gives....a...FU@k
[Nexus 4 General] richteralan:
You distorted view on smartphone prices is not surprising. As most Americans are. They are willing to let carrier butt-r*pe them with contracts but get the illusion that the smartphone "should be" $199.

When you comparing price to price, of course people will buy $199 versus $349.
[Nexus 4 General] ksc6000:
You're kind of a **** aren't you? I bet it feels tough to insult people on the internet that have done nothing to antagonize you. A$$hole. Go f yourself.

I don't buy that 400k Nexus 4's have been sold/shipped until we get official numbers from LG or Google. I think that LG feels that the Nexus 4 is a fruitless endeavor for them as it's sales price is so low that they're probably not making enough money on it, and then have to deal with all of the returned/warrantied devices. And btw, this is just MY THOUGHT, you blowhard.
[Nexus 4 General] BarryH_GEG:
You're out of your mind. Samsung's out performing Apple and their growth is more than double that of smartphone sales in general (which includes LG). They sold 20MM smartphones per month in the three months comprising the fourth quarter. With HSPA-only and a 720P display the N4 will be dated after Q1 2013 when higher-spec'd phones hit the market. The next three months are its peak selling period. And the amount sold will be limitied by the lack of carrier partnerships.

He also offered his take on the news that Samsung is expected to report sales of

63 million smartphones in the fourth quarter

, which would represent

75 percent year-over-year growth

. Munster expects

35 percent year-over-year growth for the smartphone industry

, and a 21 percent increase in iPhone sales.

[Nexus 4 General] qazibasit:
Well if LG did an agreement with google, it means they didnt mean this. Plus their company standings has raised. Plus LG had an advantage that if their optimus didnt go well they will put the hardware in the nexus 4. So the speculation is not right. Actually google knew its sales will be less because sony and htc release were close and they only have a window of 2 months to sell their phones. So they ordered less and even in the upcoming batch they will be less in number. Lastly LG and google has some pricing issue thats the latest rumor.
[Nexus 4 General] BarryH_GEG:
Your comment is oxymoronic and has nothing to do with me as the messenger. 90+% of people buy subsidized phones having nothing to do with me or anyone else on XDA. As long as they do, whether you think they are idiots or not, a 1080P LTE phone with expandable storage for $199 will be perceived as a much better value than a 720P HSPA phone with 16GB of fixed storage at $349. Want to change the system and enlighten the masses? Start a blog.

P.S. - I'm on a contract-less post-paid AT&T plan and have used international non-subsidized phones for over two years.

I don't think Google chose LG because they wanted to be charitable. So I had to wait a couple months for mine. I have it now. All is forgiven. No hard feelings. Google was never great at selling physical items.

[Nexus 4 General] electric0ant:
It's not LG that has no stock, it's google that has no stock. Get it right.

All the other shops selling the nexus 4 at the RRP has stock (T-mobile in USA, Carphone warehouse in UK), the Nexus 4 launch in Hong Kong also had plenty of stock on the day they promised with still lots of stock available at the moment.

Google is the one with no stock, they didn't order enough from LG.

We all know that google is subsidizing the price of the Nexus 4 on the play store, that's why it's so cheap. In my opinion, they are only planning to do so for a set quantity, that's why they take so long to get back in stock on the play store.
[Nexus 4 General] imtiax:
I'm assuming Google wont have any stock for the next few months. Might as well go buy it on Craigslist now.
[Nexus 4 General] draugaz:
It all depends on the real demand which is out here.

LG is currently producing a bit over 10k devices per day, so soon every XDA kid will get their N4 and the tide of excitment wil turn into "I am bored, will put mine on craigslist". My gut feeling says it will happen in Feb.

I was told by a Google rep that it should be in stock sometime by the end of this month..I am hopeful but I won't hold my breath..
[Nexus 4 General] -Mindroid-:

It sounds like the most reasonable explanation. Google is subsidizing the Nexus4 and can only put out a

limited number of phones periodically.

[Nexus 4 General] RealiZms:
Are you kidding me? I'm ROFL now.

In other news LG has been manufacturing the Nexus 4 in Brazil since early Jan.....which for some of you trapped in a time warp is this month....meaning LG just started to manufacture the phone about a week ago in Brazil....

Most people want a Nexus 4. LG will make them as long as their is demand. The story in my opinion is just another way to keep the demand for the phone in the upper stratosphere.
[Nexus 4 General] heat361:
Is Google really that stupid to stop production and release a new product I don't think so. They will face the same problem as before and won't be able to keep up with demand.
[Nexus 4 General] idividebyzero:
The only reason is because google sucks at delivering products, they always have regardless of the manufacturer. They sucked with Samsung, they sucked with ASUS (6 months to deliver a simple hunk of plastic for the Nexus 7? give me a damn break), and now they suck with LG. This is a chronic problem, its googles fault, not LG's.

Stop blaming LG, google has NEVER released anything right. NOTHING. They screwed up every single release theyve ever done or canned it completely like the Nexus Q.
[Nexus 4 General] lowandbehold:
Well, I remember on the Nexus 7 launch day they were available at SEVERAL retailers in my area. I also remember that the Gnex was never sold out. Same with the Nexus S. So, I really don't get what you are talking about.
[Nexus 4 General] idividebyzero:
thats just because they werent popular, they screwed up the accessories for both those very badly and failed to deliver what they said they would
[Nexus 4 General] androidtoy09:
At this point, I really think the problem is simple. LG doesn't have the production capability like Samsung or HTC. It has been months! What is the logical excuse to not ramp up production?
[Nexus 4 General] Jayrod1980:
Where do you get this crap? They are a huge OEM. They produce more than 10 million a year and aren't even a top tier android phone maker. Like Samsung they also make everything under the sun including batteries and display panels. They will only produce what they are contracted to make. If there is a shortage its because Google didn't initially contract for enough at launch. Right now only T-Mobile and the play store sell the device in the US. The majority of the components in this phone are the same as the optimus G. That phone is not sold out anywhere. The nexus 4 is made by them but is not their device. It is Googles phone, contracted to be built by LG. They just have not figured out or put enough resources into selling these things. By past experience, I really don't think they care about or are trying to be a smartphone maker or market leader. They produce these to showcase Android and to encourage more development so they can make money from ads and app purchases. I think they just introduce these things to spur innovation and to show OEMS how they want to see their software moving forward. Otherwise there is a lot less incentive for OEMS like Samsung to release newer versions of android on their phones, as those phones emphasize the touch wiz overlay.

Apple doesn't have to do this because they use an entirely different business model. If they want to move in another direction they just build the new device for it and push the update to their other devices. Android doesn't operate this way.

[Nexus 4 General] lowandbehold:
EXACTLY. Google makes it's money through search and advertisements. They don't care about selling 50 million phones. Also, look at the buzz that this shortage of phones is creating on the internet. Free advertising at it's best.

i have the lg doubleplay, a few nights ago i was in root toolbox and clicked the install dsp manager, i rebooted after but it stayed on the lg boot screen, i tried to get a factory reset but it stayed on lg screen after. now all it does whenever i plug it in or push the power button is start to lg screen, powers off, powers on to stock recovery, powers off, powers on to lg screen and stays. i have tried the lg update tool and its recovery but it tells me contact lg, i cannot get into any fastboot mode, emergency mode, download mode, etc. i have tried every button, with and without battery, sim, and sd card in the phone. it all does the same i mentioned above. today i took it to the local cell repair store, kinda blew the techs mind asking him about adb, sdk, fastboot, etc. They suggest replacing the logic board and wanted 100 to do it, i said no, thats something i can handle if its needed. my question is, any ideas on how to fix this? should i get another board or should i send to lg or just get another phone? i had to go back to my gravity 3 and its killing me being on a basic pos but dont have the cash to drop on a new/replacement phone atm

Read all efrant's directions thoroughly first, perhaps several times to be sure you understand the process. Without CWM, i believe your most important step would be "fastboot erase cache". If you have CWM, there's no harm in wiping cache and dalvik. I would even do a factory reset first to be safe. Yes, there are ways to preserve your data, if you already have any, but reading for comprehension is key.

BTW, about the GPU scaling just set it to on to increase your battery life. Go to GPU max frequency and change the clock number to whatever you like as long is the kernel supports it then try to decrease every voltage to -5mV for example if a voltage is set to 1200, change it to 1195 in other words, to undervolt to increase more battery life while gaining good enough overall performance. I suggest you download M-Kernels build which is a28. About the thank you button, I think just click my name then find the thank you button there.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyelo2:
Another noob here.

So, to overclock you have to get another kernel (as opposed to editing a config file somewhere)?

And recent posts in this thread discuss overclocking the GPU. Is also possible to overclock the main CPU? In what circumstances would you choose to overclock one versus the other?
