Hey Op you might wanna do your homework next time you decide to buy any products... That's the problem with these new android user.. They get in a pickle the first words come out there mouths "ANDROID SUCKS" Ugh!! Maybe Android isn't for you:good: But hey you could always RUN back to apple Where everything is simple and done for you... :silly::rolleyes::eek::crying:

Give me an example of what a jailbroken iPhone can do that an Android phone can't. You just need to get used to the way Android does things, that's all.

Headphones work great, microphone doesn't work, and pausing and starting music works, that's basically it . its closed to iProducts its the way apple engineered them.

Use a 3 button headphone set..I'm stuck with a crappy one button option now
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threeclaws:
Not sure why people think apple is to blame for headphones not working, they don't have a patent on 3.5mm connectors and there is no reason that device manf. have chosen not use the "standard" that apple uses.

As for an itunes alternative, I had one (salling media sync) but with the new way jelly bean handles internal storage (no more mass storage) it doesn't work anymore and doubletwist is a complete mess. So if itunes is critical for you then back to apple you will have to go. I do wish google (or a third party) would come up with "itunes for android" but they seem to want to push streaming for whatever reason.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PcFish:
Agreed. If I recall Stock Android only supports one button headsets. Whereas HTC and Samsung support 3 button ones.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
And there are people saying stock android is better than customised android with all the extra features and additions.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username8611:
While I do agree with this, the fact that he is coming in and bashing androids saying they suck because his apple products don't work with it, this is what blew my mind.

Edit: I know headphones are headphones, but its up to the device manufacterer to decide whether it supports additional features. They still play music, I don't think he should be so upset about extras not working.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
Lol you obviously haven't read the thread
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] username8611:
this is your comment I'm referring too. just sounds a bit arrogant. im not trying to fight or bash you, but jeez dont jump to conclusions assuming things.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nigeldg:
I can only assume music is your entire life if you're really judging an OS purely on its ability to play music. With the money you've saved by getting a N4 over an iPhone you could easily buy a few 160GB iPod classics and be happy.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threeclaws:
He could buy 1...but this is what I don't understand about android apologists that are also apple bashers, why should anybody have to buy a second device because android is deficient?

I like the N4, I think it is the first android device to date (thanks mostly to the software) that can actually compete with the current iphone BUT the iphone covers camera/music/phone/messaging/browsing/apps 100% so why can't we expect the same out of our android devices? The camera isn't great, there isn't a great music player (the stock one can't even ffw WTF,) phone - check, messaging - check (albeit with some reservations,) browsing - check and apps - checkish (new apps are still usually ios first and take months to come to android but that isn't really google's fault.)

I just wish people on this forum would stop ignoring android's shortcomings and instead face reality, then maybe there wouldn't be so many ex-idevice people pissed when android doesn't live up to the hype.

And even then I believe HTC and Samsung both use their own standards, I have no idea why they didn't just adopt apple's.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Android is a developers OS just like Linux. You want it to be compatible then speak to apple. They make it so things only work with their stuff.

Android is all about making it your way. They give you the basics and the rest is up to you. This is what makes android great.

Wayne Tech S-III
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nigeldg:
And what I'm saying is that while Android has its shortcomings there's no point judging it on a few certain features unless they're literally the only things you use on your phone. iOS surpasses Android in some aspects but Android hugely surpasses iOS in others. As for your categories:

Camera - There are tonnes of phones with great cameras on Android, so I have no clue what you mean here

Music - Admittedly the stock Google Music app isn't the best but with so many alternatives on the Play Store you have choice, unlike on iOS (there are no alternative system music players allowed on the App store afaik).

Messaging - Could you expand on these reservations?

Apps - Google Play is on par with the App store, and there seem to be more free apps on the Play store as well (I have no figures to back this up, just feels like it). Some apps are poorly designed but it remains that all the apps you'd want are great on both OSes.

The reason iDevice users aren't happy when switching to Android is because it's completely different from iOS. With Apple you get given something and you have no option to change it, so people don't realise that if they want to replace a certain app then they can. With iOS you make yourself work with the phone, with Android you make the phone work perfectly with you.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
Says don't want to bash and then does the exact same thing... Hmmm makes sense
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
Amen brother! People on this thread and forum and just as much apple bashers and android fanbois than anyone! They seem to think android can never be critiqued and it is always better than Iphones no matter what. They just blindly promote android over apple even though apple is clearly far better in many aspects
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nigeldg:
Where did he bash you?

Read my above posts. Android has its issues and so does iOS. Some are willing to admit them and some aren't. If you only listen to music them the iPhone will be the best phone for you.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
This is all a matter of opinion when it comes down to it. I have not found anything that apple does the is better then Android for what i use my device for.

As I stated above if things bug you then you have the ability to change it. By all means I look forward to seeing what you come up with to fix the issues that you have with android.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
IPhone stock music app works perfectly, you don't even have to go out and keep searching for others and even end up paying for a new app like on android.

I can say the apple app store isfar far superior than android. A lot more apps and far better quality. I can't use important apps that I used because it,s not on android or it's far less quality. Android alternative apps look very ugly and just don't have the functionality of apple ones.

I have some apps that I used on both platforms. And I was so horrified at the android version because I barely recognised the app anymore.

Apple has imessage built in so you don't have to clog more space by downloading extra SMS apps.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
I'm the consumer, its pretty stupid to suggest untrained consumers have to code and fix the problem because of underlying issues in android. Please tell me what kind of company would do that?

Annoys me so much when there are problems and fanbois say fix it yourself. But it's not up to me to fix these problems! This is what is wrong with android and their fan base. Instead of saying there are problems that should be fixed by Google, fanbois say the software is fine and if consumers have problems then fix it yourself. Terrible attitude
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
I want my phone to be a smart phone/ multimedia integration hub. From experience now I know android can't seamlessly integrate everything as a package like iTunes/iPhone can. You have to download like 10 extra apps and even pay for some of them to have the subpar level of integration and holistic cohesion of iphone

This mess needs to be closed.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
You do realize you are on a Developers site right? You do know what we do here? You do understand android is a developers OS?

Now if you want Apple stuff to work then go tell apple to stop making their stuff only work with their products. The fact that your having issues with stuff from another OS that is only compatible with that OS is not another OSs fault.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
As far as I know, I'm posting on the q&a and general help section. The forum caters for everyone not just developers who can code. If you can't see that then you are pretty ignorant.

Wow. Android doesn't support 3 button headsets not because of apple but because of android dude. Even android supported 3 button headsets only work on Samsung/HTC customised android
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
OK maybe you missed the name of the site. It is XDA-Developers. We are a developers site. Made for and by developers. We don't sit there and complain about stuff. We find ways to fix it.

And after dealing with this I went and got out my old BB head set and guess what? It works without issues. It is well know. Apple doesn't use the standard 3.5 plug configuration. They use a different set up so it doesn't work on phones that use the standard set up.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] El Daddy:
You started this thread off with a question, which you got many good answers for. Including a suggestion from myself. Instead of trying said solutions and being open to alternatives, you continued on a 3 day tantrum. Xda is for collaboration and helping each other with solutions to problems users may have. It's not the place for a whine fest about why android doesn't work EXACTLY like iOS.

P.S. Generalizing and calling the people here fanboys isn't going to get you anywhere.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
Like I said, despite the name the forum caters for everyone dude. Are you blind or just stupid? That is a pretty dumb assertion to make just because of the name.

I bought iPhone because it does everything. By your logic it should just be a phone that takes and answers calls LOL. Ahh

Klipsch and nocs make 3 button headsets for android phones which doesn't work on vanilla android like nexus 4. I'm not talking g about apple earphones alone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinny1:
Google music app has so many problems of its own. I had to create a separate thread for it. Still haven't found apps that is anywhere near the level of iPhone can. I have researched a lot. So far used media monkey, isyncr, music bee, double twist, power amp, Google music.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nigeldg:
And for me the stock Google Music app would work perfectly as well. When I'm listening to music I'm not using the app, my phone is in my pocket. You DEFINITELY don't have to pay to get a good app on Android, the Sony Walkman music player (downloadable off XDA) as well as DoubleTwist and Rocket Player from the Play store are perfect examples. Look at all of the free music player apps that are rated above 4*s which are available.

The 'far less quality' excuse is quite frankly bullsh*t. While there are far more 'vaporware' apps on Android than on iOS, the top apps are equal if not better than their iOS counterparts in pretty much every case. Also, they usually have more functionality in Android because of the better integration between apps meaning that everything is made easier.

Nobody has had to download extra SMS apps on Android, the guy I quoted earlier just said that the SMS app had its shortcomings and I asked him what they were.

He never said you have to code, don't make up BS. The majority of consumers don't have any issues to fix, and if you do you just download an app. The software may not be fine for you but if that's the case then fix it, it's not difficult. The only reason you don't have issues on iOS is because you have gotten used to it and are comfortable with the way it works.

I, on the other hand, have loads of issues with iOS. One of my biggest complaints is how counter-intuitive some things on it are. In safari, there's a separate box for Google search and the URL which is frankly stupid and by your logic I shouldn't fix it myself. There's also the fact that there is no utility to the phone outside of some sort of app which means that all you're doing is jumping in and out of apps all the time. I can get most of the information I want from my homescreen widgets. On iOS, settings for individual apps are located within the general settings, again incredibly stupid. If I want to edit an app setting I want it to be within the app, not have to go to another app. The notification shade is very half-arsed and the crosses to delete notifications are far too small. The back button in apps is always in different places whereas on Android there's a consistent back arrow (same with menu). These are just some of the issues I have, there are obviously a lot more.

You're calling other people fanboys then you post this? smh
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
You know what I am done with you being rude to people that have given you options to try and calling people names. Maybe Android is not for you. Its not for everyone. Maybe you should go back to the Iphone. It works well enough for alot of people.

Normally you start calling moderators names would equal being banned from the site all together but I am gonna let it go. This once.

I currently have an old 6gb SanDisk sdcard I got a few years ago which works well for me.

Although I've been wanting to upgrade to a 32 or 64gb sdcard. I've noticed people having issues with sdcards like the phone won't recognize or it unmounts rapidly.

I was wondering what you guys use that's most stable for you. Do you guys use SanDisk, Samsung, etc memory cards? Post model or anything that works.
