with the default settings, the screen goes off when the tablet is put to sleep - which is why everything stops. you can play with the power settings and get the screen to turn off without causing the tablet to go to sleep - and your music will keep playing. sadly you can't just turn he screen off with the power button - its for either sleep or shutdown. there might be a shortcut key to do this, but I'm not sure.

hope that helps

Hi...its my suggestion to make the fonts colour lighter and the colour of popups more dark...so it makes a contrast and pleases the eyes. I think you opted for such colour bcz this is GB and font colour on some 3rd party apps are affected as they have bright popups according to the GB code.

I love those dark popups...and plz...try to port it to neoV too.

Thanks.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeknight11:
The title says it all. I am confused between Nexus 4 and Galaxy S3. Now, I am coming from a Note II. I don't really like the Note II. Its way too big for me -.-

So I gave it to my dad.

Now, let me make a few things clear. No matter if its a nexus or anything else, I am going to root it and install a custom rom as soon as I purchase it. So, the question of running the latest version of android doesnt come up. I want suggestions based on your overall device experience.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rohit02:
Nexus 4 all the way.. :)

N4 is way better in performance than S3. Even S3 users have moved on from S3 to N4, check other thread with similar title.

As you said you will be rooting it, so u have ample of ROM's to try. 2gigs of RAM and 1.5 GHz makes it a BEAST and stand out off all. though the camera is not as good as S3 to admit. Rest its your call. Nexus 4 anytime the best .
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codygs83:
I'm with the n4 now and am more than pleased.

However if removeable storage and battery are your thing then the s3 is the way to go.

I personally prefer the development community that the n4 has along with the plethora of ROM and kernel choices. Plus with online cloud storage, who needs a micro SD these days.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperJigglyWalrus:
I say go with the Galaxy SIII. Much cheaper to replace parts when broken and way easier. More battery life than the Nexus. You get the added benefit of the phone being popular and will have more access to premium cases and accessories that the Nexus 4 may never see. I love my Nexus 4, but if you already have software taken care of, go for the GSIII.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeknight11:
More battery life? Both the phones have a 2100 mAh battery, don't they?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperJigglyWalrus:
Nope. The Nexus 4 uses a 1750mAh battery. c:
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extremetempz:
Depends

the nexus 4 is a lot more future proof then the galaxy s3 but if you want expandable storage or camera definatly go gs3 otherwise nexus 4

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeknight11:
Okay. I actually need a lot of storage. I have a large music collection and I keep docs and other imp stuff on my phone just in case I need them urgently. Assume that I purchase the S3. Will the 750MB ram and crappy exynos source codes lead to problems in future?

If yes, then I'll compromise with the storage thing and purchase the Nexus 4. I can do away with the storage problems by purchasing a 64GB pendrive.

About the camera, I don't really use my phone to take pictures. Took around 3-4 pictures in the last 7 months using my NoteII. I have a camera for taking pictures.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defffizz:
I have n4 and my girlfriend s3,and I don't know why is considered that s3 has much better camera. Maybe it's not the camera, rather the amoled screen on s3 which gives that over saturated surreal look. I took the same photo with n4 and s3 and transferred to laptop and there wasn't almost any difference between them.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiru.adi13:
The nexus 4 doesn't support USB OTG so the pendrive won't help :(

If storage is an absolute need then I think you should go for the s3.

If the lack of ram bugs you, take a look at the s3 lte (same exynos quad, 2 gigs of ram)

But it definitely won't match the nexus 4's performance no matter what. Its gonna be a lot less smooth. If you can live with your note II for a few more months you should do that and buy the new nexus when it comes out this fall.....

EDIT: Read the first post. Oops, my bad about the note II. It all comes down to storage then. If you really need a lot of it, buy the s3 lte(or the us s3, that's good too). Otherwise, nexus 4 all the way. Cheers
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
How much space does your files need. I was worried about space but lets be honest with all the cloud features out there like BOx giving you 50 gigs when you sign up you can put your stuff anywhere. I have 0 issues playing my 1000 or so songs from a streaming Google Music. I hear ya storage was an issue for me but you learn to adapt....
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codygs83:
Dude. Use the cloud!

There are several services out there, I personally use drop box and copy.

On another note.... I have over 3k songs uploaded to play music through music manager on my desktop and stream them bad boys through the play music app.

The future is here.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
I kind of think the mentions here in this thread (N4 vs HTC OneX+) kind of applies and makes the same argument, especially as I even bought up the S3 in comparison in that thread. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2086175

Mainly with the S3, are these important to you?

*) replaceable/extendable battery

*) Micro-SD card slot

If so then S3 would be for you, since can't seem to decide on everything else :D

---------- Post added at 12:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 AM ----------

I use dropbox and such too, though I normally won't rely on it for very large files to my phone basically. There's OwnCloud if you don't mind setting that up (just kind of a pain if you're expecting it to stream).

Far as movies and audio, etc on my local wifi or wifi in general, that's what stuff like Google Play Music, Qloud Media, or Plex is for.

Course if the Nexus4 supported USB-OTG like my Nexus 7 does (well it 'sorta' does, but it's hardware limitation is that it needs extra juice via an external power source), then I'd just pop on a micro-SD card or thumbdrive if for some reason I really needed local connected storage. (There's also AirDroid if you're just trying to transfer).

PS: I love dropbox, I use a Eye-Fi SD card, which can use WAP off my phone to save photos I take to my computer at home, at home I have it saving to my dropbox folder, so I can always pull up the photos via dropbox on my phone if I wish to share from there rather than having to re-configure the card to save straight to my phone but then still having to end up saving it to the desktop later.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yash295:
I know you tj bro... U used to have sga right? I loved your stocklite rom man. Exactly one month ago i was in same situation as you. I was going insane on which mobile to buy s3 or n4. Finally i bought n4 because of its dev support on xda.

Major Pros of n4 :

RAM 2 gb

Awesomest support of ROMs.

Future proof as compared to s3

Build quality is good as compared to s3

Major Cons of n4 :

Delayed push notification in whatsapp etc though it will hopefully fixed in next Google's next update.(though you can fix it having a simple hack)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
It's most likely my ignorance of not having used WhatsApp myself, but if it's an app, why would the push notifications be delayed on an N4 but not on an S3? Especially if you're using custom roms anyways?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yash295:
My bad I wanted to say that push notifications are delayed in many apps like gmail whatsapp etc. Not ONLY whatsapp. I don't know the reason that why is this happening only on nexus 4 but doesn't phone even respond to ping while on Wi-Fi.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Not sure I'd put that in a "con" list if you don't know why or if it's even related to the hardware as opposed to all OSes when the same could happen on the S3 side depending on the software, apps, region, configuration. etc.

PS: Also if it's not responding to ping while on wifi especially with specific wifi spots, you might have to configure a DNS server manually (like google's 8.8.8.8, as the phone may have picked up a configuration that's not resolving certain domains correctly etc).
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yash295:
Dude you might not know about the issue but here is the proof it is only on n4: productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/mobile/SQH6JnIFYcQ

Also you can also Google there are many complaints about delayed push notification.

Edit : I also forgot to clarify that delaying only happens when screen is off
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Just noticed that from the link you sent, just seem so bizzare that something like that would happen regardless if you wiped the entire OS with a custom kernel and rom and so forth.

I was actually pinging my phone at 5 second intervals for the last several minutes with the screen off and it hasn't dropped yet (though it wasn't pinging at first til I turned the screen back on). Using a static IP for it.

[stops ping and waits a min before starting it back up]

After waiting roughly 45 seconds before doing the pings again, it's request timeout 100% from there on. If I touch the power to turn the screen on, pings still fail for least 10 seconds and then resumes.

So yea there's an issue when it's shutting down wifi with the screen off when even the policy is set to keep wifi on.

Might explain why the power usage is well below -30mA during screen off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yash295:
Yeah so there is problem as I said earlier. Hopefully devs will fix the problem.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Seems like there are some work-arounds. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2072930

PS: Seems a dev responded on March 5th, but it's taking them this long to address it? Kind of removes the Nexus4 from being a "business viable" device no?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yash295:
Lol :D you are right bro..and yeah I already checked that link earlier but some users are reporting that it's not working on 4.2.2.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
Well I'll let you know in a sec because I just applied it, and doing the ping test was pretty consistent and easy to replicate. (SlimBean is 4.2.2)

Edit #1 : Still pings after waiting a min from stopping it. Will edit again in 5 minutes of screen off, then will try again. So far so good, but though unrelated to the topic, we'll see how much of a battery impact it has since I got detailed logs of drain for the last few hours with screen off, will see if its bigger.

---------- Post added at 03:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:53 AM ----------

Yep, still pings after being screen-off for over 5 minutes.

battery wise with both broadcasting/multicasting, we're looking at going from around -27mA ~ -56mA , to around -150mA ~ 180mA, I need to leave the screen off for more than 10 mins to get a more accurate picture of it's usage idle.

---------- Post added at 03:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 AM ----------

K doesn't look like it's that bad, after nearly 15 mins can still ping, can still receive things instantly. Battery drain on sleep is around -70mA to -90mA, as opposed to around -27mA to -60mA, so it's not like its an outrageous increase (though still almost double when you think about it.I might try the bcast-only one just to see.

So least we know that option is on the table between the S3 and N4, provided you don't mind 'hacking it up abit', hopefully there will be an official fix in 4.3.x or whatever next 4.2.x is .

i sold my note 2 to get a nexus 4. if you are going to root the phone and install a custom rom then its definitly a nexus without thinkin about it... if you are gonna root the s3 most roms run stock android so you will propably end up with the same thing ... nexus has better development faster development ... more roms more mods, softbuttons(better) etc ...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeknight11:
So, looking at the comments I think I should purchase the Nexus 4. I don't really care about getting whatsapp messages or emails late. And I am a power user, if there are workarounds I will apply them. I need a future proof phone so nexus 4 seems to be the perfect choice. I can wait for a month, so lets see if google releases the Nexus 5 during its upcoming event (I'll purchase it ofc). Otherwise, I'll go with the Nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeknight11:
Oh hi :P

Thanks for the compliment xP

Nice to see people from SGA forums here :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kbeezie:
And to follow up with an overnight sleep, when device screen is off with the broadcast-only patch, it initially draws around -90mA but after about 10 minutes -52, then for I'm guessing deep sleep it's -40 consistantly it bumped up to -53 and -57 a couple of times and if I match the power bump time to notifications it would appear that's when it received a push notification, then goes back to around -41 to -43 mA. So yea every time I go screen off it's initially ~ -90mA -> -60ish -> -50ish -> -40-ish for the long sleep.

Not as nice as -27mA but pretty good for a hack that supposedly impacts your battery life.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] machoman1337:
Nexus 4 all the way, unless these are dealbreakers:

- Max 16 GB storage

- Non removable battery

- More fragile than other phones (that glass!)

If your intention is to use an AOSP based custom ROM, the N4 will still do a lot better than the S3. Not only does it have a better CPU, it has much better driver support so all the hardware components are guaranteed to work as they should. Common complaints I've heard with running CM on the S3 are related to the camera (not the lack of features, rather just being buggy and crashing) and connectivity like Bluetooth.

I'm guessing you won't care about the lack of LTE, right? Since you live in India.

Hey all, I was browsing on Facebook this morning on the bus and came across an advert for a new Home Launcher for Android. It's called Everything.me Home (Beta) in the Market.

It is actually pretty dam nice, very smooth, and very clever how they have done it. Everything is organised, you have a search bar on the top called, Whats on your mind? and it will find pretty much everything you want (app wise) I typed in Xbox, and it popped up with Xbox apps linked straight to the Market.

It's worth a try, and for a Beta it is definitely a good Launcher, I have had 1 crash so far when coming off the Market and that's it.

So i hope to dont be wrong to ask here:

Its my first experience with a Tablet and it come with JB 4.1.1.

1) Are there ROMS (officially-unofficially portings) with 4.2.1 or more? Wich one in particoular? It has the £G module,so the ROMS for A210 model i suppose are not good.

2) Are specific tools for unlock bootloader, do root and install CWM?

Nimo you need to attach the source of kernel here this is mandatory nowadays for posting any rom on Xda :( else it will be removed :crying:

For the time being what you can do is separate kernel from ROM package and recommend users to use a kernel from a link which will be inside your rom package i.e the zip will contain flashable rom.zip+txt file with link

I can do it for you if you want.
