[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevinrubio1:
Anything i should know before i buy this phone?

Like any cons/problems?

How's the battery life?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scampy:
Depends how picky you are. Some people are finding problem everywhere and returning their phones for the smallest reason.

If you check the forum will will find lots of this.

Battery life ...... I had shockingly bad screen on time on the standard kernel so I flashed franco kernel and it seems a little better.

If i didnt leave 3g turned on and didnt actually do anything on the phone i could get 2 days between charges, but if used 3g the battery would go down 10% in 10 mins. But with a different kernel im getting a lot better screen on time.

As for the software its vanilla android and its virtually perfect for me and the phone is blistering fast it does everything i want very fast, also a lot of people where i live dont know what it is especially people with iphones and they are a litttle jealous when they see how fast it is.

A minus though is the phone can get very hot, I men where i live it gets down to -40 and i can use it as a hand warmer I dont know if this is heat dissipation working correctly or some other problem

Im hoping the battery and heating issues can be solved with an update which im sure they will be.

For me buy it its individual i havent seen one anywhere apart from in my pocket any problems and you can just take it straight back )))
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tengen:
Battery life has been fine for me, even on stock kernel (though I'm running a custom one now). As for cons, some people have problems with the phone being a little more fragile, as both front and back are made of glass. YMMV depending on how careful you are / how willing you are to put a case on it.

As far as the heating issue goes, if you flash a custom kernel and UV a bit you should be fine. Also depends on what you use your phone for. 3D gaming will obviously get you higher temps.

OP - you might get some more informative answers if you mention what phone you're coming from and what you're used to or expecting.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ztmike:
Battery life is about the same as any other phone in this category of the Nexus 4's specs.

The heat it gives off I would consider the same as my Galaxy S3.

Only thing that I would tell you is to have a case for it, it has glass on both sides ..I would recommend the Diztronic TPU case.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scampy:
im running franco kernel with it underclocked and i still get the heat issue. I dont use it for games i have a n7 for that. only normal phone use and stuff like social networks and looking at the browser when on the bus, or when im using 3g when using for example facebook (which i dont think is too demanding on the cpu) it gets damn HOT at the back like i said even when its -40 well maybe -20 on the bus which tbh is very bad becasue then it will condense inside causing water damage.

Im gonna wait till the next update and see if that cures it if not ill have to speak to google i think when im in the uk next month. Im not the kind of person who RMA`s for small things but my battery really is shockingly bad.

But i do agree that this kind of high level hardware is going to hammer batteries it has 4 x the power of my old xperia arc......

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biffsmash:
This phone is absolutely brilliant. I would put it at a 9/10, losing 1 point for the camera.

It's cooler than the SGS3 temperature wise, it's well built, it's super fast and has great battery life. Volumes are loud, earpiece speaker is clear and as loud as a jet engine, the screen is absolutely gorgeous.

On AOKP milestone build 1, with franko kernel, I get around 20 hours standby, and 4.5 hours screen on time with moderate use. Thats with some form of data on permanently apart from at night (standby time includes sleep at night lol)

Once google release good camera software, nexus will take over. Camera is a 6/10 for me.

I'm coming from the HTC Amaze, that has an amazing battery but I'm leaving that phone because of the battery and the reboot problem.

and can you guys give me a little more information on the camera? Like pictures you guys took, and I heard the battery can compete with the Samsung galaxy 2
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tengen:
Some people in this thread have been discussing camera issues. There are also a bunch of pictures taken by the N4 there. The gist of it is that low light performance may not be up to everyone's standards, but (again) it depends on how picky you are about these things. If it bothers you, you may be able to work around it by using a third-party camera app - there's some debate about whether the problem is hardware- or software-related.

My personal impression is that the camera is good enough for my uses, but then again I'm not a photography buff, so take that opinion with a grain of salt :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kristoff125:
I could easily recommend this phone to anyone. The battery is what it is, I get 3-4 hours of screen on time. I do have a charger at work and home and in the car, so it's a non-issue for me. The screen is beautiful. The phone is insanely fast. The heat issues I think are non-issues, the back is glass which is a much better conductor, so all that really means is the glass back heats up to cool off the processor, plastic backed phones don't have a huge thermal plate to dissipate heat. I'd call the phone a 9.5/10 especially if you can get it straight from Google for their price. (good luck)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blendobass:
The worst thing about this phone is feels like fine china, it is fragile, and I bet most will broken sooner or later.

The battery is not very good and you can carry two.

The storage is silly low at 8 - 16 gigs, it is silly slow

THE WORST for me is not USB On the GO - so you can't plug in mice, keyboard and external drives like most of the good phones can do.

No LTE - am ok with that myself but LTE is taking over and will be teh THE network in a year or two.

LG doesn't have a good track network, this is a cheaply built phone when you look at it

It doesn't come with a head set so you need to buy one.

The google shpping sucks REALLY bad as does the playstore service, they are full of it.

Camera is about as good as an old blackberry, it kind of sucks.

I have a rattle somewhere inside of it.

It looks a little to flashy and I don't think that is goralla glass on the back.

Vanilla android sucks, you don't get a note app even, if you just want to use a phone and have the extras already there, i would pass,

If you need a rugged, long lasting trooper, this isn't int. If you stay indoors and doen't share your phone you should love the video games.

As for me, I need to call girls.

Whine, whine, whine, whine, whine. Seriously, someone call the wah-bulance. this post is ridiculous. That battery is fine (I easily get 20 hours with moderate usage), storage is plenty unless you have 46 gigs of porn.. USB OTG?? How many people do you honestly think plugs mice/keyboard into A CELL PHONE?! This phone feels much more solidly built than all of the Samsung plastic I've had in the past, headset? who cares... Shipping was fine, I agree the ordering process needs work... Camera is better than the previous Nexus (though not as good as GS3, One-X, etc) I have no rattle so you've probably dropped it or done something else stupid, I've had the phone since launch and not a single scratch so yes, it is Gorilla Glass 2; and vanilla android is MUCH better than Touchjizz, Sense, etc. A note app?? REALLY?! Why the hell did you buy this phone?!

S4 won't be out until June at the earliest... And it depends on if you are the type of person who wants OS updates as soon as they come out (Nexus 4), don't care when they finally roll out 3 months later or more (everyone else).. As far as the fee thing, no clue.

it's a great idea，but it seems so difficult for us to complete such a huge program.
[Defy Android Development] YetAnotherForumUser:
It is not as big as you make it out to be. The drivers already exist, they just need to be ported. The differences between 2.6.32 and 3.0.X (the first target) are not that big, so the changes needed should be limited. The number of drivers which need to be ported is also rather limited, especially given the potential number of volunteers. The difficulty level for porting these drivers is generally not that high, there are plenty of examples to be found for similar hardware which has already been ported.

The list contains 17 items. Several of them need to be checked for compatibility only (USE_OF, MACH_OMAP_MAPPHONE, VIDEO_OMAP2_VOUT, SND_OMAP_SOC, USB_MOT_ANDROID). This leaves 12 items. The CPCAP-related drivers might already be available (need to check later Motorola code). The procfs-related stuff should be easy to implement (PROC_DEVICETREE, OMAP3_EXPORT_DIE_ID) and might already be available under different names.

For OMAP-specific stuff (CONFIG_MPU_BRIDGE etc) there is linux-omap, more specifically several mailing lists frequented by people who have experience with porting to the linux-omap tree.

Porting the sensor drivers (SENSORS_AKM8973_AKMD, SENSORS_KXTF9) should be straightforward. The camera/video-related drivers might be more complicated as they'll need to be adapted to use ION. Then again, maybe they have already been ported? If not, there should be plenty of examples for similar hardware to base a port on.

I'm not saying porting these drivers/features will be effortless. Nor does it have to be. Porting ICS and later JB to Defy(+) wasn't effortless either yet still someone did it. By dividing the tasks needed to port these drivers/features the amount of effort needed will be limited. As said, I assume that there are several people frequenting this (part of this) site who should be capable of partaking in this effort.

Comparison between Defy and LG Optimus Black kernel configuration

The display subsystem in the LG Optimus Black seems to resemble that in the Defy(+), so for that purpose those sources can be useful.

For comparison purposes I attached a side-by-side diff of the default Defy(+) kernel .config and that for the LG Optimus Black.
[Defy Android Development] YetAnotherForumUser:
That is the base I used to find missing drivers/features. For porting purposes it does not matter that much which base is used, as long as it is as close to baseline as possible. The linux-omap tree would be a good starting point as that is a) synchronized with baseline and b) where work on OMAP-related stuff takes place. As the purpose of the port is to get Android to run, the most recent Android-specific branch would be a good target. Of course there is much to say for taking the path of least resistance so if one of those other trees around here (Quarx 3.0.8-defy_display, LG, Samsung, a mashup of all three, etc) can get us where we want to be in less time that would be an option as well.

[Defy Android Development] YetAnotherForumUser:
It might. For more stuff like that have a look at the Linux OMAP Kernel Project where you'll find more about the various OMAP-related development efforts. The above link points to one of the many branches of this tree:

http://git.omapzoom.org/?p=kernel/omap.git;a=summary

In the p-android-omap-3.4 branch there is a camera driver for the "Aptina MT9P031 Camera". The Defy+ (and Defy/Bayer) contain a camera based on the MT9P012. It stands to reason that there is a family relationship between all these mt9xyyy sensor drivers.

[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
junesoung, it's not a Moto kernel.

p-android-omap3-3.0 clean branch without display changes.

About kernel driver:

Device Drivers/Misc devices/Sound/Camera etc - it's not a problem, i didn't see reason to port it, untill usb and display not fixed.

Main problems are display and usb.

For display i'm recommend to use "3.0.8-solana_display" branch, it's more ready for display. Problem now in DSS, something wrong in here, it's not enabled or sonething wrong in initialization.

CPCAP stuff (except USB) and PROC_DEVICETREE(ARM_OF) already supported and works correct. Devtree work correct.

MPU_BRIDGE already in kernel, not tested, but initalization going without errors.

OMAP3_EXPORT_DIE_ID it's not necessary.

MAPPHONE_2NDBOOT no need yet.

USB can be fixed too, but it's hard to debug.

[Defy Android Development] YetAnotherForumUser:
So display and USB should be the starting points in our attempts to get this kernel working on the Defy(+). Even though the hardware is not identical, the running examples for the LG Optimus Black and the Samsung Galaxy SL can give some clues as to what is missing.

Once display works it would be good to have wlan as that would make it easier to debug USB. As noted in an earlier post some of the remaining drivers have already been ported elsewhere. I have thus far not found any ports for the camera and lens driver so those still need to be done.
[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
LG Optimus Black and the Samsung Galaxy SL are generic OMAP3 devices.

Defy/Droid/Milestone/RAZR etc is not generic, it's a CPCAP devices, so it's very different way to works with usb and other hardware.
[Defy Android Development] YetAnotherForumUser:
But the display is quite similar if I'm not mistaken? As the display on both works it might help getting it to work on Defy (and those other Motorola devices).
[Defy Android Development] domokos:
Well, fact is that in kernel 2.6 it works.

As the source is available in theory it is possible to understand what needs to be done to the hardware to get the display and USB up and running just by reading the code of kernel 2.6.

Going that way I spent a bit of time looking at the same DSS code in the 2.6 kernel. So far all I can see that it is quite different. However, I think this is a sure way to yield the result in the end, though not necessarily the easiest one.

Am I missing something by proposing this approach?
