DiGi Zero Contract? SKMM Rebate?
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

DiGi only sells Nexus 4 bundled with plans. You will have to sign up for plans with the phone price at RM1449. Plans available are DG Smart Plan 68 (Zero Contract) and DG Smart Plan 88 (24 months/Zero Contract). You can always visit your nearest DiGi Centre to purchase your phone & DiGi plan outright!

Please note that "Zero Contract customers must sign up for DG Smart Plan for at least three (3) months. In the event of termination within the first 3 months of subscription, customers will be charged an administrative fee of RM100."

Sharing by nightwalkertzs on his experience in getting Nexus 4 from DiGi store

I bought from digi store ALAMANDA already..Device after discount RM200 rebate -RM1299

i Will use digi for 3 months = rm68*3 = Rm204

mean total own cost = RM 1503...i will terminate the plan after 3 months for sure. hehe so now i am eenjoying my Nexus 4...thanks all for acc me all lon g waiting 1 month ^^

auto billing with credit card can rebate rm5 each month^^ so in 3 months = Rm1503 - Rm15 = RM1488

(Link to original post)

Want to purchase Nexus 4 with SKMM rebate? Read on below; posted by polarzbearz.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

For DiGi, if you want to just get the phone; the best and cheapest option is to take DiGi Zero Contract 68 which breaks down to the price table below:

DESCRIPTION PRICE
Nexus 4 RM1499
SKMM Rebate - RM200
Advanced Payment RM68
Early Termination Fee* RM100
TOTAL RM1467

*Zero Contract customers must sign up for DG Smart Plan™ for at least three (3) months. In the event of termination within the first 3 months of subscription, customers will be charged an administrative fee of RM100. (Source).

However, some of the DiGi staff does not allow on-the-spot termination so make sure you negotiate hard or go for another DiGi Store.

An alternative is to use the plan for 3 months first and then terminate, which will cost:

DESCRIPTION PRICE
Nexus 4 RM1499
SKMM Rebate - RM200
Advanced Payment RM68
Second Month Payment RM68
Third Month Payment RM68
TOTAL RM1503

Also, when you terminate, make sure you get proof of termination just in case they did not successfully terminate your account within their system and continues sending you bill.

Another post shared by SSY22 regarding his experiences of signing DiGi Zero Contract 48 instead of the usual 68, so you might want to try your luck to save some bucks

Nexus 4 User here. Btw , i wan to share something here.

If you want to sign up DG rm48+1499 price for ZERO CONTRACT , go to DEALER store

DG centre only allow you to sign up RM68+1499 for ZERO CONTRACT

BTW no advanced payment needed. I got my nexus 4 today. Been waiting for so long.

This why sometime you see got people able to subscribe 48 plan.

4.2.2 Announcement @ 14 February 2013 along with some guidelines / tips
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

OTA 4.2.2 is out! Didn't receive OTAs (for stock ROM & stock kernel users)? On custom ROM / kernel? Head over this link to D.I.Y! Heads up to XDA Community for the thread.

For those on stock ROM and have yet receive OTA notification, try these steps: Go to Settings > Apps > All Apps > Google Framework Services > Force Stop > Disable > Clear Data > Enable > Go back to settings > About Phone > System Updates > Check now > 4.2.2 is available! (credits to stormlcc).

Some members reported that these had to be done repeatedly (more than one time) in order to receive the OTA notification; and some got it work within first try. So do try a few times if it does not work

*Do note that it may take some time for the OTA to be rolled out to all users. Some of us ~~(including me)~~ have not received the OTAs yet. If you can't wait, use the link above to do it yourself manually; or try the above trick to receive OTA notification!

If you are on custom recovery when you receives OTA notification, please read this post by annoymous1234 on how to proceed

Can't download apps from Play Store after updating to 4.2.2 and receives the error message Error retrieving information from server. [RPC:S-5:AEC-0]? Try this solution posted by nightwalkertzs.

Gotta give LightManager a try soon, since it's free as opposed to Light Flow (free version limits functionality ) The earpiece seems to be overpriced IMO, might as well as spending it on other earpieces QUOTE(teckyang97 @ Apr 19 2013, 03:34 PM) Actually I think no need keep creating new thread,just leave it like usual Just a standard practice in Lowyat.net's forum, if you did not notice

Gracie Senior Member 4,816 posts Joined: Apr 2007	QUOTE(poad @ Apr 19 2013, 03:38 PM) in ur opinion should i stick with stock rom or flash the other one.. Depends on what you need. Do you want the extra functionalities offered in custom ROMs (e.g. T9 Dialers in some AOKP ROMs, etc); or do you prefer staying stock and not having to do any extra work (e.g. to flash, to download and flash again, etc). It's all up to your preferences But I do recommend flashing custom kernels tho, in order to slightly improve battery life by undervolting. Nevertheless, it might be a good idea to unlock your bootloader first if you're unsure whether to proceed or not (since unlocking will wipe every data in your device, might as well as do it early when there aren't much data residing in it).

The only difference is either your warranty is under LG or under the shop who sold you the phone. But if you ask me, I would take the Original LG set. Since you can straight away just send it to LG. instead of AP in which you'll have to wait for the shop to send it to their factory. But well, each person has their own preference, its up to you in the end
