Exactly. My Nexus 4 came with 4.2 and staying away from 4.2.1 for now due to battery issues.

Hope Google releases the next firmware that can fix the battery issue FAST!

As a Nexus fan, the pure-Google experience is just second to none.

I've used HTC One X, S3, Note II, Xperia Acro. Still, previous Galaxy Nexus's interface looks coolest amongst all, and that is now replaced by my new Nexus 4.

The only thing that would be BETTER than the Nexus 4, is probably Nexus 5 with the rumoured (and most likely) 5" 1080p screen (same as Droid DNA & Xperia Z). But that would take about another 6-months at least to be released.

Not only that.

All the HTC Sense, Moto Blur, Samsung TouchWiz UI are really pale in comparison to the vanilla-Android. It's like downgrading your interface and replacing it with shiny poorly-designed stuff. However, some of the features (like in TouchWiz) would be great to add into the Nexus, though.

Only tested From my Nexus 4 to a friend's Nexus 4 so far, and works brilliantly!

Not capalang android. They're still good, offer more features (for models like Note II) but with a poor Google-like experience.

One look also you will know it's a guy's phone.
Unless you get a colourful girly case.

I have to say my Nexus 4 actually looks more commanding due to the size and rugged-looks when put side-by-side with my iPhone 5.

Today's battery life of my Nexus 4 running stock 4.2 since took it off charger at 7.30am this morning. Quite impressed with it.

- Notifications (Push) on for 2 Gmail accounts
- Whatsapp notifications on - 3 whatsapp active groups in addition to individual ones
- Facebook (Push) notifications on (no idea how to disable it )
- Google Contacts Sync On
- Google Calendar Sync On
- Switched from 3G to 2G at times. 3G only when sending files / photos.

Nope. Maybe keep it virgin for awhile first. Later maybe straight whack root, etc.

Yup.

It seems that this static sound is a common problem for all Nexus 4 units.

However, I can't seem to notice the problem at all when making phone calls.

I'm still on firmware 4.2 though. Could that be why?

Anyone here has tried Sweep2Wake mod?

It's possibly the only thing that interests me now to root my Nexus 4.

If anyone has tried the mod, please give a short review of it! TQ

It's apparently part of Bricked-Kernel. Details here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/37692-kerneldec...stickyfreqocuv/

The latest tweak to the Sweep2Wake is that it uses 'Interrupts' which doesn't drain the battery somehow according to the developers.

For me, rooting will unstabilize the phone right? Right now the phone hasn't crash on me and the apps haven't frozen/shutdown yet, which is great!

There will not be overcharging issues with Nexus 4 since the phone will disconnect current from the charger after full charge. Just touch you phone 1 hour after it has reached full charge and you will feel it's cold (meaning charging stopped).

The same goes for charging on my Panasonic QE-TM101 Qi Wireless Charging Pad. After full-charged achieved, the charging pad's actuators will return to it's 'sleep' position, noting that charging has stopped for the Nexus 4.

OMG. This is awesome. Thanks a lot for this!!!

Btw, this should work fine on rooted stock kernel right?

Wow. So much poison here. Tonight after work just got to root already.

My iPhone 5 is sitting in my drawer now because Nexus 4 is just so FUN to use. LOL.

Yeah. Sigh. Anyway, possible for me to root using WUG while maintaining stock ROM of 4.2? hope I don't need to upgrade to 4.2.1 yet.

Gnex is made by Samsung. Samsung uses really poor quality physical buttons. Just search up home/power button failure of S3 and Note II and you will be shocked, even after those phones were just launched! LOL. LG's durability is much better, and the button failure problem is almost non-existent, YET!
