[Nexus 4 General] ladislav4:
Few years ago was unimaginable to make phone like N4,GS3 oth,because our PCs have quad cores and 2GB ram and that was enough for us ...and i think the performance of our phone (N4) was enough for a while...and the construction and body of the phone was excellent for me ;)
[Nexus 4 General] xingchenre:
I got my nexus4 from another guy,700 RMB,,about 100 dollars,,,
[Nexus 4 General] catlog:
Nearly 2 years and this device is still more than capable for my usage, can probably go another year with it.
[Nexus 4 General] RumoredNow:
I'm still flashing alternate OS images to it... Waiting for SailfishOS on Nexus 4 to mature.
[Nexus 4 General] Planterz:
I didn't really choose to stay with the Nexus 4 - in fact, I just got mine. I've been wanting for a while, and had been trying to buy one off my co-worker, but she ended up breaking the screen, so she just gave me the phone for free. So after replacing the screen and battery, I've got practically a new N4 for only $80!

This is easily the best phone I've ever owned, especially with CM11 on it. Now I'm playing around with kernels to maximize the unfortunately sized battery. I don't really have any interest in the N5 (although I wouldn't say no to a free or really cheap one), and have practically no interest in the Nexus 6, especially if the rumors of it being phablet-sized are true. I like using big screens, but I hate carrying them in my pocket. In fact, what'll probably be my next phone (Sony Xperia Z3 Compact) will be smaller than the N4. I think it'll be a good balance between screen size, ease of use with one hand, and pocketablility. If only they'd make a GPE edition...
[Nexus 4 General] bj3096:
Because the N5 got this oddly shaped speaker hole... :silly:

To be honest, i like the design of the N4 far more.
[Nexus 4 General] lndulgence:
When i heard that N5's battery life is still awful, i decided to steer away from it and stick to my N4. Now, here's hoping that N6 will have a decent battery life, otherwise, this N4 will be my last nexus device.. Battery life man, battery life..
[Nexus 4 General] timurka:
Simply love my N4 and don't wanna change it anytime soon. I still use it a lot (even after 2 yrs) so there is no need for me to change it.
[Nexus 4 General] RootNightmareX:
Lets see.

I had more optiins like n4 n5 note 2 lg g2 s4 htc m7.

So n5 bad battery life

Lg g2 had a very high price at that time

Note one hell of a monster too big for me

S4 plastic jizzz

Htc one too big for his screen size

So i decided the best phone i can get is n4 :p
[Nexus 4 General] opssemnik:
1d and 7h, with 5h40min of sot with my friend´s n5, he done some gaming, browsing, some photos, social media...

on the rest i can confirm.

nexus 4 is beautifull ,if i could find here in brazil i would have bought it again, but its hard so gone for the m8

/thread
[Nexus 4 General] Stixxbixby:
Design. In the confines of the 'slab' aesthetics, I love the N4's personality & feel in hand (ideal screen size) as compared with the N5. The white N4 is a very unique device that u don't see too often, which is also nice. Performance upgrades of the N5 r nice, but I also bought an htc one to help in that regard ;)

[Nexus 4 General] MusadiqManas:
Reason to stick with N4

Didn't feel much need coz N4 was and still is catering my smartphone-related needs.
[Nexus 4 General] :
I didn't see much reason to upgrade. Slightly better smoothness, battery and camera. That's it.
[Nexus 4 General] shanesim:
incremental changes in N5 + no killer features.
[Nexus 4 General] onetik:
Nexus 4 is such a good phone that nothing in the market excites me much now. The performance is very adequate for me, although the battery life could've been a bit better. I usually get 2.5-3 hrs SOT with a full charge after nearly 1.5 years.
[Nexus 4 General] yhn:
Money. My investment hasn't paid off yet.
[Nexus 4 General] alwaysbmx:
My N4 was my first expensive phone and open door to pure android. I've stayed with it mostly because money and because its still so powerful to change it.
[Nexus 4 General] Vlad Paul:
I switched to G2 few days ago but i keep my Nexus 4 like a second device ?
[Nexus 4 General] tember1214:
I traded my moto x for nexus 4. Loved my moto x but I mainly traded for android l haha and the fact that my moto x was att version with locked boot loader and a tethered root. Not disappointed with the n4 at all. Love this phone.
[Nexus 4 General] Nathan-NL:
Bad (awful) call quality on Nexus 5.

Only 16GB version of Moto X available here.

Moto G not good enough.

OnePlus One: no invite, screen is too big.

Waiting for Moto X + 1. Hopefully it will not disappoint.
[Nexus 4 General] prog19:
Knowing that even new moto g will have a bigger screen than the n4 makes me think that I'm staying withthe nexus for long

I'm a Brazilian without English Course, sorry and be comprehensive :)
[Nexus 4 General] Jumpermc:
Nat sforzey

It's priced too highly for what you get.
[Nexus 4 General] wolfen69:
I disagree. Most phones with those specs were a lot more money when it was released. But anyway, I sold my N5 and am using the N4 until the next Nexus comes out. I needed more money for my upcoming vacation and decided I can use the money. The N5 was slightly faster, but I am happy with the 4.

Those that say the N5 isn't any faster are wrong. Sure, it's not light years ahead, but I've owned both and can tell a small difference. It's just not quite as snappy. But I'm not here to bash the N4, as it's my daily driver and love it.
[Nexus 4 General] juan_carlos__007:
It's just not that big of a step from Nexus 4 to nexus 5, at least the nexus 4 has a flashier looking rear jeje. I used to have the nexus s and from nexus s to nexus galaxy it was not that big of a jump neither, so what I do is get the google phones by-models. My rooted nexus 4 with paranoid rom (pie controls) and franco kernel is way better than any new phones out there by being much faster (overclocked) and has features no new phones have out there even beating the stock nexus 5.
[Nexus 4 General] slugger09:
I think the N4 looks way better than the N5, I don't think the N5 is much of an upgrade, when the next Nexus comes out I might upgrade but to be honest the N4 is still fast enough for me, I also have a 4G Moto G and to be honest there is very little difference in the N4 and Moto G in terms of speed, sure for playing games etc but for everyday browsing I can't tell the difference.
[Nexus 4 General] ariciselman:
cos i love my N4
[Nexus 4 General] Project:Frankenphone:
worst luck

I was originally going to get the N5. I was following it closely. Then one day they said it wasn't going to be released, so I bought the N4. 2 weeks after my birthday, the N5 was released......
[Nexus 4 General] Pirum:
Price. I bought my N4 after N5 was released, the N4 is way better than my previous phone and will certainly not be replaced soon (I hope). I have no use for LTE at the moment, and not in foreseeable future.
[Nexus 4 General] Planterz:
If you're in the US or in Canada on Rogers, then you can have LTE with a simple hack.
[Nexus 4 General] prog19:
Why did you decide to stay with nexus 4 after the iPhone 6 was launched ?

I'm a Brazilian without English Course, sorry and be comprehensive :)
[Nexus 4 General] akan24:
almost two years on and mine is still going strong. Great phone. I like the design of the 5 but it wasn't enough of an upgrade to get me to part with the 4.
[Nexus 4 General] rondias18:
Honestly I thought about trading my N4 for the N5, but then i didn't because the pro's outweighed the con's of switching, and this is just my opinion so any criticism you might have is welcomed:

Snapdragon 800 better then S4 Pro, but the GPU remained the same meaning only processing power was increased whereas gaming was only slighly affected

Display size and resolution was increased, but for me 320ppi and 440ppi don't make a diff cause i'm able to watch 1080 videos either way

Battery was a main issue, considering the CPU boost Google only increased the battery capacity bya mere 200mAh

Also as far as updates go the N4 is capable of handling upto the 2nd iteration of Android L should Google support it

Compared to the N5 I believe the N4 has a bit more developer support

And as far as the costs go, when I bought the N4 the price to specs deal was much better then what the N5 was being offered for, cause the N4 at the time of launch had specs to go head-to-head with top flagship phones.

I rest my case :)
[Nexus 4 General] macallik:
The whole reason I bought the N4 was because it is an off contract phone that will save me money in the long run. There is nothing that is a must buy for me on the N5 compared to the N4, so the only reason that I could give to myself that would warrant an upgrade is having the 'newest' thing (comparatively speaking). Plus, I don't think I will ever buy a phone over $300 off contract nowadays. Plenty of off-contract options for cheaper
[Nexus 4 General] Pirum:
Sorry, Sweden, but I have a cheap unlimited dataplan for 3G, if I ever make the switch to 4G/LTE I need to "upgrade" my plan to fewer GBs and more money as LTE is blocked for customers with old cheap plans...With more people going to LTE, 3G seems to be less overloaded here these days.

One thing though, I would wish for a better camera on my N4. It is good, but compared to newer phones it does show its age now. I never have any problems with the power of the CPU, GPU, memory whatever.
[Nexus 4 General] Aashrey99:
Because I'm a college student and I'm broke. xD
[Nexus 4 General] SirHat:
Around that time I was holding off upgrading to KitKat. After N5 was released and KitKat became available for N4, I took the leap and installed KitKat. After that the phone was so smooth that I thought: N4 is still good enough spec-wise.

Though I have to say, now with new high-ends phones coming, I am intrigued to look around.
[Nexus 4 General] fahadsul3man:
because 2gb ram > 1 gb ram of icrap 6:D
[Nexus 4 General] fortunz:
I'm another one who grabbed a fire sale N4 not long before the n5 hit. Only thing that could make me move on early is probably Project Ara. I"m a bit of an anachronism as I was a proponent of big screens back when "big" meant 4", these days, they're launching 4.7"s and calling them minis. But Ara has two endos that are quite reasonably sized, one a bit smaller than the old iphones and one a smidge larger.

That and even the shadow of a hope of good wired (in a manner of speaking) keyboards is a huge draw. So I'm basically the only person alive who wishes phones were smaller-screened and thicker bodied. If Ara fizzles, I could probably live with my N4 for 3 years total even though the 8GB storage and lack of sd vexes me, because I've got Dimple NFC buttons on the way. My N4 is about to become a much more comfy ereader.
[Nexus 4 General] r.sorujlall:
because i can't afford a more expensive phone.
[Nexus 4 General] Planterz:
As I said before, I got the Nexus 4 for cheap. A co-worker gave me one with a broken screen, which I replaced. A new co-worker happens to have a Nexus 5 with a broken screen, and he's getting an iPhone next week. But honestly it's not worth buying and fixing up. If it were a 32GB, then yeah, but it's only a 16GB. A new screen assembly is $100, new battery is $20, and a new back cover (his is all messed up) is $30. So $150 plus whatever he wants for the phone ($100-120). Not worth it. I'd rather just get another Nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 General] aceo07:
The Nexus 5 is too big. I like the N4 size, and that's already the max I really want. Even a few mm taller is too much. 4.7" display is the biggest I want.

Everything else is slowly creeping up past 5" and way past 130mm tall.. Too bad the Moto X(2014) went to 5.2" and too bad the N5 went 5". I hope the new Nexus gets smaller or at least the bezel get smaller to make it shorter.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThePagel:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Syst3m Deadlock:
Hey all, I need some help. I bricked my phone, and I can only get into download mode and recovery. Flashing through odin fails each time, and so does flashing through recovery. Gives me a status 7 error. Ive made sure I'm downloading all the proper files, but Im stumped here. My phone also isnt recognized in Kies. Ive uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers multiple times now. Im too nervous to go to an AT&T store because theyll see I voided my warranty from the recovery (using philz recovery).

Anyone got any clue on what Im doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
EDIT: In your sig, it says you have an S2? this is the S3 section.

What happened exactly to soft-brick?

The software you're flashing with Odin might not be good, try another one. Also, since you can get in recovery, you can try clean flashing the ROM you had running previous to the brick.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Syst3m Deadlock:
I have an S3 now, just havent updated my sig.

And I was trying to root. I was on the latest stock 4.4.2 and flashed the wrong file by mistake. Forgot what it was. So now I cant flash any files in recovery or odin. It just fails each and every time. I know all these files cant be bad

So root wasnt successful and now I cant even revert back to stock
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Kies interferes with odin. Uninstall it from your computer and try odin again.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Syst3m Deadlock:
Still didnt work. Odin let me install a recovery file, but it just wont let me install files to restore back to stock. Same with recovery, I'm still getting the status 7 error. It doesnt make any sense. Ive downloaded and redownloaded from different places, so I highly doubt that all these files are bad
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Are you running the latest Philz? Sometimes, the status 7 error occurs with an outdated recovery. Have you tried flashing a custom ROM with TWRP?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Syst3m Deadlock:
I'm running 6.0.5 - no I haven't tried TWRP
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
What rom were you running before? What do you want to be running now?

And what is your current firmware/bootloader version? Not sure about philz recovery, but status 7 errors usually occur when you dont have the required firmware build.

Also, at least for the T999, cm roms updater-scripts are outdated. So if we have the newest available, it still gives the status 7 errors because the new builds haven't been added. Just thought I'd mention this in case you're updated to the new kk firmware and are trying to flash a cm rom.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Syst3m Deadlock:
I was running official 4.4 unrooted. I'm trying to install Likewise S5.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Install terminal emulator from the play store and enter this:

getprop ro.bootloader

If it returns I747UCUEMJB you should be ok to flash likewise and something else is preventing it. If its anyway but that, you probably need to update your base firmware/bootloaders first.

If you're still unable to boot anything, the build should be shown on the Download Mode screen. You can probably reflash your previous rom and boot to that for right now though.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Syst3m Deadlock:
I was able to get a custom ROM installed, but now I have no reception. Im guessing the bootloader needs to be updated. So I tried updating it via odin. That failed. I also tried flashing it in recovery and still got a status 7 error. Im at my whits end here :eek:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
You probably need to flash your modem. Run the Terminal Emulator command I posted before, and if it returns I747UCUEMJB, flash the MJB modem. If it returns anything else, flash the modem that matches, but let us know first just to be on the safe side.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Syst3m Deadlock:
Terminal Emulator tells me my bootloader is 1747UCUFNE4
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
So yeah, you need the 1747UCUFNE4 baseband. Look in Settings/About Phone to know which one you have before going and flashing it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Syst3m Deadlock:
I cant seem to find the 1747UCUFNE4 baseband,
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:

I'd really like to have one, but there are a couple of issues: The screen...if I bought a used one, for example, can I get the warranty honored? Secondly, the SOD: Has it been solved?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
I'm very happy with my two (one as a incar GPS/test box). Good luck on warranty on a used one, Sony here in NZ didn't want to know for my second one (I brought it broken), although they are a gray import here.

The sleep of death was solved a long time ago on one of the 4.2 updates. There is 4.4.4 kicking around noe.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] hansip87:
Yes, i am very satisfied with Z Ultra. Nope the chances for me to go back to small screen is very much gone... Unless no Z2 Ultra in the future.

But as of now, Z Ultra is really great. never got satisfied more than this. Battery Life might need to be better but 5 hour real time screen time average is very respectable for such screen size and power engine :)

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] E90 Commie:
I am very happy with my C6802 almost 11 months after getting it (bought it early August last year). It is still unsurpassed and despite about three weeks before root was possible (vRoot unfortunately), the arrival of GPe got things going.

It is the best phablet made to this date; I don't consider any other device close beside the Oppo Find 7. The only thing I am worried about is the lack of any successor rumor or even information about upcoming devices in the same category. The only competitors I know about right now is the Oppo N1 and Huawei Ascend Mate 2, both with weaker hardware.

My requirements for a new device is Snapdragon 810/815, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB internal storage, 6.5-7 inch screen, keyboard cover as an option, camera not important (have the QX10 for that), microSDXC slot and... either Google vanilla/Android Silver or CM-based. Sony implementation is OK.

I guess next year will bring those things to the table but it would be great with some decent phablets this fall since it would indicate that the segment is alive and well. Right now, the Ultra is in a class of its own and any other device means compromising on the core: a solution that is a true tablet replacement with great software.

Edit: The GPe ROM paired with Xposed Framework and optimized Dalvik libraries (compensating for the ART/Xposed issue) make the Ultra a completely superior phablet. I have tried the Note 3 (which is hyped as being such a great device) several times and it is far, far behind the Ultra in every aspect besides the camera. The best features of it such as multiwindow is available on the Ultra through Xposed and it works great.

I have safestrap on the phone now flash it with safestrap or odem.

sorry for all the questions
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jmjoyas:
On stock rom, all firmware components have the same version. So, one could say their firmware version by looking at the baseband. But, actually, the baseband is the modem. Since you build is MK2, you should flash the MK2 modem to make everything compatible.

If the file is in ".tar" or ".tar.md5" format, you flash using Odin. If the file is in zip format, then you flash it using recovery.

As per the All things ATT thread, the modems are flashable via recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] treydawg:
It was a zip file but didn't help. Im about to think the phone is bad and give up. I was think of doing the 4.4.2 upgrade with the wifi fix and see if that helped. whats your thoughts on my next move?
