[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonnokenny:
So I've made a few threads, but gonna ask all my concerns here so I won't have to make multiple threads.

Vibration: The vibration seems dull, seen a few people complaining about that. Guessing that's normal?

Volume: I have my volume set half way on everything, media, notifications, ringer etc. Compared to my Dad's Galaxy S and Mum's S3, the volume isn't as loud as them. Even going to higher levels, the Samsung's volume seems louder, though it might just have a better tone. Either way, half volume on my Nexus 4, games music seems quiet. Normal?

Occasionally I hear a rattle in the phone. Again, normal?

Can artificial lights - like lamps in the house - damage the Nexus 4 screen if the light is shining directly on it?

Accelerometer: How good is it? It works fine, it just doesn't seem as sensitive in games compared to an iPhone or something. Though I might be imagining this.

A friend of mine installs custom ROMs, and downloads apk's from various places. Dunno how legitimate or safe they are. So today, he installed a custom ROM whilst in university off the university's wireless network. He then used NFC to transfer an image to me, but I cancelled it whilst it was connected - because am careful about what I accept on my phone. Just wondering if anything would have transferred to my phone to harm it, or should it be okay? I've already gone through a phase of performing factory resets on my phone in case of viruses etc, and don't want to be doing that again. This friend also sent me a link to The Verge. I didn't open it because I was concerned about opening something sent from his phone. I just saw the link "mobile.theverge etc." Nothing could happen to my phone from just opening links, right? I've already gone through a phase of performing factory resets on my phone in case of viruses etc, and don't want to be doing that again.

Finally, are anti viruses on Android good? I have avast! installed, and each time I scan my phone everything comes back clean so want to know how reliable they are. Can an avast! scan be disrupted by an incoming text? Or wouldn't that affect the scan?

Am a bit OCD about new phones, you see.

Sorry for all my questions.

Many thanks.

Saw it on The Verge. I'm wondering if the magnets will be able to hold it up with a bumper on. The image shows that the diameter of the orb is larger than the width of the phone meaning a bumper would stop it from touching the base of the orb... meaning the magnets might not be as strong. I would much rather wait for a video review of peoples experience.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] heat361:
There are two other thread with the same information.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Pedro Peguero Jr.:
Yeah same here. I can't wait for a review video to pop up
[Nexus 4 Accessories] 2.0:
Still waiting for a UK release.. Looks good though.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] SysAdmNj:
You need to take the case off to use this? I also like to use my device while its charging on the cable so this is not that great of an idea imho.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kd78:
interesting image they are showing on the n4 when it is docked. Is that an existing view I can get to or something new when you dock to this thing?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] tysj:
From the other thread, it's Battery Widget? Reborn!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] mobilehavoc:
Already have two LG chargers but figured one more can't hurt so I ordered mine and went through right away. Already charged on CC.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] 2.0:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you do. I tried using the phone (and the case) with the Nokia Lumia wireless charger in an O2 Store and it worked fine.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] biggiestuff:
I'm thinking you might need to take off the case for the magnets to latch onto the phone though. I'm worried even with the OEM bumper the phone won't sit properly.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
I really hope the magnets will still work when using a case
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Psyclism:
I'm going to go out on a limb here and speculate that the magnets will still work with the thin TPU cases out there. Reason being, the Nexus 4, when nude, is as slick as greased moose poo and is going to require a fair amount of magnetic pull to keep it from sliding off of the Orb. The TPU cases will probably lessen the pull, but will instead add additional friction, so I'm guessing they'll cancel each other out.

Pure speculation, but that's how I'm rationalizing buying one ;)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Enhanced:
I assume they made the OEM bumper the way it is (thin as heck with very little lip) so that it would work with the OEM wireless charger. Only makes sense, but I wouldn't put it past Google/LG to mess this up.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] rSallyx:
What is the Battery status app being displayed? maybe it comes up when connected to charger 0_o
[Nexus 4 Accessories] MrWulf:
I laughed at the moose poo! It really does try to slowly sneak towards and edge if you leave it on a glass table or tiled area. I've had a few near drops.

Does anyone else question the usefulness of wireless charging? I think it's quite cool and all that, but it's hardly like plugging in a micro usb cord is especially time consuming. Does anybody know if it charges faster than micro usb? This may be a silly question, but can you charge the phone using both the usb and charging org, in order to charge it quicker?

Hello everyone, I am terribly sorry to make this post since after scouring this page Ive seen alot of either unanswered questions or members upset with noobs for posting in the wrong place.

Sooo i'm gonna give everyone my run down and hope someone can walk me through this.

I bought my Motorola Droid Bionic Used and Rooted. I unrooted it to take into Verizion due to media file and battery issues. Afterwords I attempted to understand the "simple step by step" rooting process. Somehow I messed up somewhere and now have the Bionic Eclipse ICS v1.3 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1965305 running on my phone but unrooted. I have everything backed up through Titanium Back up. Can someone please help me with my lack of "su code" issue. I have spent the last 6 hrs trying to figure out where I went wrong working with Motofail and Petes motorola root tools.

Please feel free to pm or email me.

Sincerely,

Ethan S.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lemonspeakers:
WoW! I think I actually might like this!

FYI: AOKP MR3 just released a way to hide the nav bar and a quick swipe up enables the nave bar to reappear. Just like WebOS!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] p2kmafia:
My problem with PIE is when I have it set to either right side or bottom (easiest to access) it cuts off half of my backspace button on my keyboard as it is reserved for swiping in and PIEing from the right or its hard to click my space bar or punctuation marks if I have it set to the bottom.

Is there anyway to avoid this? Like preferably have it set to force swiping from the bezel, rather than allowing a majority of the finger to be on the screen when swiping up. I've messed with all of the launch setting sizes to no avail.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ATTACK:
I have the same problem with my keyboard when pie is set to the bottom. I do not know of any fix. In a few days or so there will be a new release of PA with some impressive fixes that they have done. Take a look at they're (PA) Google+ page.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] p2kmafia:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] CPA Poke:
I noticed that ManelScout4Life seems to be posting nightlies of the Vanilla Rootbox 4.2.1 ROM under the "quincyatt" header on his goo.im section (although they don't appear when you "filter by compatible roms".

I downloaded it, but searched all over the interwebz and couldn't find a damn thing on it...and since I'm not a huge fan of blindly flashing ROM's, I wanted to see if anyone here has taken the plunge and tried to flash it? I know he did the voting thing the other day, but I have no idea how that turned out...so I'm not sure if he's just intentionally not posting it here, or if they're just test builds that aren't ready for full-on testing yet.

Either way - I have read some cool things about RootBox, so I'd love to give it a whirl if anyone else (Manel included?) could confirm that it's not gonna take us to Bricktown or anything. :laugh:

Thanks in advance, hopefully I didn't miss anything previously regarding his ROM's...I'm definitely not trying to go against a contributor's wishes or anything like that.

I'm thinking of buying a new android phone. I've been a user for 2 years now and despite the advantages it has over iOS, i was thinking of buying another android phone although i can't decide which one's better. Surely nexus 4 wields a better hardware but the fact that it only has 16 GB and no mem cards slot where some of it is reserved for the OS, leaving around 14 GB for personal use. What do you guys suggest? Feel free to give your opinions...

It's funny how none of you have any comment/opinion to make (126 views....)

Definitely Nexus 4, the lack of an ext SD card is a real bummer but still the "pure Android" experience outweighs it for me. The fast updates, no bloatware, Google doesn't put obstacles in the way of developers. :)

Coming from a Galaxy S2 I really had enough of Samsung not disclosing necessary sources to make CM fully compatible to the hardware used (Exynos, gralloc, audio, hwcomposer, ...) and that was my main reason to make the switch!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calinoii:
nope,no power saving on.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ficti0n851:
Ok there are still other things you can do. Maybe something is eating your cpu. Try using cpuspy or setcpu to see what clocks your using. If its at the highest clock all the time that could indicate a cpu hog.

See what processes are using those high clocks with top or another program run on the phone.

Most important though is to see what is actualy causing the low score, which part of the benchmark is causing low scores. Maybe IO or memory performance, cpu might be fine.

Hi Everyone,

My wife wants me to root her One X+ (AT&T) so I can put a ROM that she likes on there, but I wanted to know if there was a way to back up all of her contacts and stuff like that without being rooted?

I was reading the guide on how to root this phone and it says I have to unlock the bootloader first and then root it? And by unlocking the bootloader all data will be erased.

I guess what i'm asking for is a "guide" on how to back up all of her apps, pictures, and contacts so I can restore them after the root and ROM flash.
[HTC One X+] NoobDude:
You can back up all apps with astro file manager or another app backup app. I save all my contact to my google account, so when ever i get a new phone when i log into my google account my contacts are auto restored. you can back up her pictures using either google drive, or another cloud service, or just save them to your PC/MAC, then copy them back to the DCIM folder.

EDIT: when you back up the apps using astro or the like, make sure you save the file to your computer, IIRC rooting the phone even erases the "SD card".
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
You don't have read access to /data/ on an unrooted devices AFAIK.
[HTC One X+] dubdroid_:
Backing up contacts and SMS/MMS is easily done inside the contacts / messaging app (or via your wife's Google-account).

It gets complicated if you want to back up any app data (like gaming highscores etc). Some apps store this data on your "sdcard" which you can access with your computer. But anything that is stored on /data/... like most apps and their data can't be accessed without root.

Does this really work (now)? I tried this 2 month ago when I was still unrooted and had a locked bootloader - these adb backup xyz commands didn't work, it neither showed any errors, nor it created any backup file (Intl. model)
[HTC One X+] superchilpil:
I've used before, but on a different phone.

Should be completely universal, just make sure you're SDK is up to date

Follow the guide, then find an unnecessary app. Delete it and then do a restore, if it works it works

Make sure you follow the guide completely and read everything, they are a few things that will prevent it from doing a backup

It should be noted, that the data is several months old and HTC seems to have changed (read: messed up) the specs for the recent Europe launch, as moom999 mentioned. Having the very same specs all over the world seems to be very challenging and only just 4 variants doesn't seem to be enough.
