how do u change ur google account country? i can only change my g+ location which i think it is irrelevant...
so now u can directly access us play store music from ur phone? blink.gif as well as the play books, magazines?
*
nod.gif Yup, can access all those but haven't try to purchase them yet (not planning to at current stage tongue.gif)

1) https://www.google.com/settings/account
2) There should be a header Email with sub-headers Primary Email & Secondary Email on the right. Look for the 'EDIT' text right beside the Email main header.
3) You'll be lead to https://accounts.google.com/b/0/EditUserInfo?hl=en_GB and thus, modify your Country (optional) there. Not sure if it'll work or not as initially it doesn't work for me. It just somehow happened to switch to US store after I finally gave up sweat.gif

Any comment about the digi offering? I'm planning to take smartplan 88 for my wife.. Do you think it's a value buy?
*
If you mean the smartplan 88, IMO there's always other telco's plan which are more attractive and given that the Nexus 4 Malaysia set have dropped in price in some shops; it might be better to purchase it w/o contract and subscribe to other telco's plan. My previous experience with DiGi + observing from my friends, the data speed is seriously sweat.gif as compared with Maxis or U-Mobile. But these are subjectively my opinion only laugh.gif

But one sad thing is, i asked the digi salesperson to cut my umobile simcard to micro-sim, who knows when put in it shows ''no service''. I try other simcard no problem. She told my my simcard chip got problem liao. ==''
tmr have to go times square to chg a new micro simcard. ==
*
Still better than my case where my friend cut it upside-down, which caused my sim-card to be facing the wrong direction sweat.gif

Luckily can force-cut the opposite edge to fit it into the sim tray

Haha. I had the same issue before. Either the sim is fragile or the guy who cut it wrong. Today my nilkin SP got deep scratch until torn. i haven't check my screen yet. cry.gif Need to buy new SP. Any recommendation?

If you're keen to give Wet Application Screen Protector a try, check out XtremeGuard as they currently have 83% discount when you purchase 3 or more products (any type) with the code: 83off

Replaced my outdated iPhone 4 with Nexus 4 8GB US set today... battery life quite bad with stock 4.2.2. Had to use NFC to disable unwanted functions for home, car and office.

Try stock rom + custom kernel with undervolting as it'll help in battery life without affecting performances tongue.gif

Previously I messed around by adding CC using US address, changing my Google account to US, trying with vpn, using market access on my phone and emulate Us telcos, and etc. Not sure which of it helped sweat.gif

Done with replace Nexus LCD. Shop price cost RM650, Lg Service Center price just RM350.
Thanks to LG Service Center. Great service.
They replace in front me and only about 15 minutes.
They also teach me how to replace the battery. diy.
Thanks for great service!

Good to hear that! -1 worries for those who have US Set now laugh.gif

Anyway, anyone here used ROM Toolbox Pro? Not sure if it's worth to buy but all-in-one seems to be better than buying apps separately in the future (e.g. Root Explorer, Kernel tweaks & others)

hi, will root & unlock bootloader wipe all my apps that i purchased?

if yes then i need to purchase again when i wan those apps?
*
1. Unlocking will perform a full-wipe on your device (a.k.a everything and anything including media files). However this is only a one-time-process as you'll only have to unlock your device once in your lifetime (unless you go and re-lock it)

2. Rooting requires your bootloader to be unlocked (see above post), however if your device is already unlocked, no wiping will occur.

3. If your device is wiped, you can re-install the apps that you have purchased easily by linking your device to the Google Account that you have used to purchase the apps. Apps are tied to your Google Account and not your device.

Hope it helps smile.gif

for 3. it means once i purchased the apps i can get back those apps with same google account without pay again right?

thx

Correct. Additionally, if you own multiple Android Devices, you can actually install them across-your-devices (single purchases, multi installation).

Hmm. Then apart from manufacturer defects, i guess US sets do not really have anything else to worry about laugh.gif

The Mercury Flip Case for N4, the lock for the case, is it a button or magnetic? Looks quite nice and TPU is a plus too (as I prefer TPU cases over hard plastic).
