Just ordered the fiance and myself Nexus 4s. She has a tendency to drop phone every so often. Whats the best case to protect the Nexus 4? i dont think she will be worried about bulk seeing as she keeps her phone her purse. she seems to be interested in the wallet style cases. I just dont know how those would handle a drop....

I Just got the Ballistic Shell Gel case for mine and it seems like a good product that would fair well in a drop. I am quite happy with fit and look and does not add huge bulk I would recommend it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floppyears:
I have the ballistic case and I strongly recommend it. It even comes in black/pink in case she likes that color. It provides the best protection currently for the n4.my only piece of advice is to let hthe case air out for a few days before giving it to her since the rubber part has a strong rubber smell.

Okay I've been contemplating getting a nexus 4 and yesterday I tried one out for the first time. Immediately I noticed terrible ghosting. How are you guys dealing with that. Total deal breaker for me. Was really excited about this phone. Can't believe lg pulled that kinda crap:banghead:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evonc:
The only time I've ever seen this is with my razr that has an oled display. A quick transition between whites and blacks would create that issue. In terms of lcd, it is a standard 60hz screen like most desktop monitors.

I don't think there are any ips panels that can support 120hz so this is probably as good as it gets. What you're noticing is probably visual lag of some sort.

Yep, I noticed that since the first day I've had my device. 4.2.2 definitely takes care of that problem for me since they did a bunch of changes in the video driver.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KossKnowsKarate:
Bah 4.2.2 does not fix that. Its a hardware issue, software can't remedy that. I also noticed that pure android on that phone lack some quality if life feature compared to cm10.1. Surprisingly enough... Oh well I'll wait for the next nexus device I guess.

You must have special eyes like the guys from phandroid
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SetiroN:
You're right, ghosting on that panel is pretty bad. LG did a pretty bad job with it, overdrive+proper calibration would have made the screen noticeably better. Coming from an amoled panel (which have about 0.1ms response time) the difference is staggering.

A lot of people don't notice it, just like a lot of people don't notice the difference between colors in TN and IPS panels, 128kbps mp3 and CDs or 40 and 80 fps in games. It's a matter of being used AND sensitive to the better quality.

Franco is right when he says that 4.2.2 brought lots of improvements to fluidity, but ghosting hasn't really changed, it's due to the pixels' response time and that hasn't changed. You're wrong saying that software cannot fix it tho, because huge mitigation could come from a software lcd overdrive implementation, which is probably not going to happen anyway: it needs to be implemented at driver level, afaik nobody on linux has done it yet (just ATI and maybe nvidia on their latest windows drivers).

But hey, that's far from being a deal breaker, it's A PHONE. First of all, you get used to it; second, it doesn't really matter all that much.

16gb max, no sdcard and otg support can be a deal breaker. But LCD ghosting? Get outta here. :)

I had to use flashboot over USB to upload CWM, then CWM protected itself and re-enabled root, I didn'tevn have to reflash super-su.

- get he recovery image recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.3-mako

- flash it from bootloader:

- extract fastboot from the sdk (I extracted the whole sdk)

- restart phone while holding power+vol down (keep vol don pressed after release sing power)

- run "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.2.3-mako.img" on your PC

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SharpHawk:
When I launch Navigation, I'm given four methods of choosing a location: "Speak Destination", "Type Destination", "Go home", and "Map". Clicking on "Map" brings me to a map view (cool)... which doesn't actually let me select a destination (WTF). Is this bug present only in Jelly Bean? I can't believe it wouldn't have been caught earlier otherwise.

Oh, launching Maps and long-pressing on a point allows me to select it and set it as a destination for Navigation. Ironic that this functionality is missing from Navigation itself.

Is there a fix for this, or is Maps the only way to select a destination by clicking on a map?

Read the Xperia recovery thread in my signature. The OP has a lot of good information.

If you did a hard reset you will have to let the battery die and start over.

Read read read before you do anything else. If you have any more questions about soft-brick you can ask in the recovery thread. Also chances are the questions have already been asked and answered there.

Ya it says that because it doesn't overwrite the boot loader, but the ll4 update blocks you from writing any boot loader. So you use that file and it restores everything except sboot.

Hi

I have just bought nexus 7 and received it today. When I unpacked it I tried to charge it. While the backlight of the device turned on, no indication of charging could be notice. Now after some time charging I tried to switch on the device but nothing is happening. Am I doing something wrong or the device could be defective? On a side note, I live in a European country and the Nexus is usa model, so the seller sent me an adapter (not sure if this helps).

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] belti:
Hi

Just an update about the issue. I have contacted the seller and he asked me to send the item back but before I should try to open the device and check if the battery is properly connected. So far I did not try to do this, because I'm concerned that by opening the back I would void the warranty ... am I correct in think this? Although a youtube video he sent me, it seems quite easy to open the back cover and check the battery.

On a side note, does anyone knows if the warranty covers shipping costs if the item was sent faulty in the first place?

Thank you.

I was at one time running cleanrom. But, I bought a AllShare Cast Hub with my 50% coupon. I can only get that to work on stock. So, I went back to bone unrooted stock, took the OTA than granted multi view, then ran the auto root with Odin. Then I took the newer ota. It still says modified, and super su is still installed. When I open super su I didn't get any sort of error. So, I ASSumed I was still rooted.

But, when I dig deeper and tried to get root access I am not actually rooted anymore. I wonder why it says modified then. I expected to lose root, but I also expected it to remove super su.

The ota downloaded, rebooted, installed, with no hitch, when I was rooted. So, root doesn't prevent the ota from downloading. But, root was the only modification I made, nothing else, otherwise the AllShare cast doesn't work.
