So the conclusion is, try to have good connection every time to avoid device heating up. Or put it on a cold place, ie in front of aircond to cold it down.

Then I have another question, this constant heating and cooling, dies it affect the glass back? Am really concern with it cracking~~ huhuhu..

Couldn't care less. If it will crack, it will crack.

The only way to avoid heating up the device is to not using it, which defeats the purpose of me buying it. sweat.gif

So I'll use it, let it heats up, if the rear glass wanna crack, there's nothing I can do about it. The only thing is, if I could only safely lift the thermal throttle thing without risking the CPU burned. hmm.gif

Anyway, having rear glass does help to dissipate the heat faster.

not trying to start a debate here, it's just my personal opinion based on actual usage (not based on benchmarks or scores on the internet)

any answers for this:

anyway, does anyone know (and can confirm) whether the N4 can be bought at digi using only prepaid? i've heard from my sis that many digi distributors there are accepting prepaid to get the N4, don't need to register any plans, so the price is only RM1499 + the price of the prepaid (RM50???)

i'm thinking of buying a 2nd phone for the wife, so need to gather some info first...

Uncle Benny, need some guidance here.  The rooting bug has bitten me but a noob on such things, would appreciate your comments if I got the sequence tight

My situation
- I am already using the phone extensively so I will want to restore my apps and settings over
- I don't intend to flash customs roms and remain stock to get OTA updates

With the toolkit, is this sequence correct,

- option 1, install drivers
- option 2, backup device
- option 8, 1 click unlock, root etc
- option 2, restore backup

Question, where are the backup files located? If it's in the phone, then I will have to move it to PC and then move it back to restore after I root?

Can I or should I relock bootloader after the rootas I read that leaving the bootloader open, may make the phone susceptible to malicious app

Thanks for answering, uncle Benny and everyone else contributing

Sequence is correct
Option 2 : you can choose what type of backups you want
Backup files are located in your PC
I have never done any backup before unlock bootloader/root as it is 100% safe ( based on my experience on previous Nexus phone/tablets). Do it if you feel insecure. Only after installing all my apps, I did a backup of the virtual SDcard
Yes you can lock back bootloader after root - I never do it and I think most of us here never bother to lock back
Unlocking back will wipe clean your phone 100%

You need not worry about OTA updates. You can use toolkit to update latest stock official rom even though you are on custom kernel, custom roms. Again , your phone will be wipe clean. Just do a full backup first before flashing it - either using toolkit or 3rd party apps such as Titanium, Super Backup etc

So far I know of only one case back glass cracked supposedly due to temperature change - affected was an editor from Droidlfe. Since he was from Droidlife this issue was spread all over the web. We do not really know the exact circumstances except he claim the " back getting warm from the heat of his hand. Then when he gently placed the phone on his room temperature countertop (I’m assuming the room temperature was quite low), the glass could not bear the sudden drop in temperature, resulting in the rather enormous crack ".
This was reported in late Nov
Have not read/heard of any new such cases since than

Just let him...chill bro...b4 i had some clash with him,not really big prob.but whenever he occur prob on his hands-on devices he will assume all unit is same.adreno320 or tegra3 is only good for gaming.otherwise normal usage doesnt really affect perfomance.and yeah,for me those benchmark score always for shiok sendiri only.

Can't agree more on that. Let just keep this thread forum as a way for us to improve our beloved Nexus 4 & stop comparing with others.it would never end.

by using internet commander pro.  i'm getting twice than that, max battery without charge is 35 hours.
yes it is, i've got both and i'd say snapdragon chips are always better than tegra, even the older gens compared to tegra 3

anyway, does anyone know (and can confirm) whether the N4 can be bought at digi using only prepaid?  i've heard from my sis that many digi distributors there are accepting prepaid to get the N4, don't need to register any plans, so the price is only RM1499 + the price of the prepaid (RM50???)

Can I use this alongside with JD? Seems to sound very good. anyways, I just flashed Franco kernel into the phone. Not sure how im going to revert it back to stock though doh.gif
