Starting from Android 4.0 Google removed ad hoc network support. So if your portable device transmit ad hoc network you may not be able to connect to it. Some users managed to modify the wpa supplicant file to support ad hoc network. I might try to do that after I got my phone.

Think I pissed the Hotspot facebook operator by asking about the courier status again laugh.gif

Correct. That app does not help in any way
You use the info from it to act on battery savings tips

Got my Nexus 4 about 3 hours ago. Immediately rooted it and install TWRP recovery
Everything seems working well so far - 3G, Wifi, calls etc
Phone is snappy and responsive
Display is average only - slightly better than Nexus 7
Only very negative aspect is the extremely unbelievable slow copying of files over from PC to it. I was trying to copy my 2 GB Titanium Backup folder over - I gave up after 15 mins and it is not even 20% copied. Eventually I use the app wifi file explorer and the folder transferred over in under 2 minutes. I have just completed transferring over all my Note 2 stuffs over thro wifi file explorer ( i zip up all the data) and the whole process just took me 15 minutes ( about 8 GB data in all )

I had issue connecting to WPA2 routers. (posted in V3)

If it was set to both WPA/WPA2 it wont connect.
If it was set to ONLY WPA2 it wont connect.

If it was set to ONLY WPA then OK no issues.

See whether are you having similar issues to me

Bandwidth = 20Mhz

No other issues I had with my laptop, N7 or Sensation with the previous setup of WPA/WPA2.

I have absolutely ZERO problems connecting to my WPA2 routers
Connecting to my Note 2 as wifi hotspot also no problem

Hey guys, last night I just unlocked my phone on version 4.2, so if right now I update to 4.2.1, do I have to re-unlock again?

ps. someone mind to point me to tutorial how to save photo/picture from facebook? the facebook apps doesnt allow download anyway. tq.
*
Once unlock leave it. Why want to relock it
If you unlock it again everything in phone will be wipe 100% clean
No harm leaving bootloader unlock
Facebook hopeless app. I use friendcaster to replace it with more features m very much faster download

Battery drain in 4.2.1 is terribly horrible. Unbelievable n is very much worse than even galaxy nexus
Well wait for another 2-3 charges to assess better
Only 3 hours plus using it
Upgraded immediately to 4.2.1 when prompted
Just installed Franco 34 kernel n hopefully will improve
3g browsing unbelievable at 30-35% per hour drain

Well,that's a epic fail with CM10.1
Stuck with bootloop & didn't have nandroid backup because I went flashing commando style.
Had to rescue the phone with sending file through adb & reflash stock rom.
Probably made mistake somewhere due to lack of sleep.Will try again after getting some sleep.
*
First thing I did after I install recovery is do a nandroid backup. I would say is compulsory step if one plan to flash anything

My nexus 7 and d1 quad can last that long,maybe will go for Xperia z

10 hours ON SCREEN TIME for your d1 quad - that is even better than Note 2 ? Are you sure you are not confused with battery hours usage ?

anyone planning to get Nillkin Ultra Slim Leather Case for Google LG Nexus 4?

I am using it now. Only issue is quite slightly difficult to press down power button when you need to wake up display
Other than that is a nice case with good fit

Of course nexus 7 can hit it . Was surprised you mention it together with d1 quad
Actually his 4 hours ost is quite good with 12 hours usage n you said no good. Your expectations is too high. If so get note2 at least 6 to 9 hours ost

I use normal mail apps that comes in my n7 to check for mail and sync every hourly or in minutes.
Not sure if N4 have external mail client.
Can consolidate with gmail too.

Use k9 mail free app many more features vs stock email. I would say is best android email app I have used

Battery life is better assess after 2-3 full charges
First day is always the worst. Use it as control to assess improvement in subsequent days
