bought it from here but it seems I remember wrongly, its 4USD not 4RM tongue.gif

Where you buy the carbon fiber? Strong enuf to protect the back glass??
*
Carbon fiber bought from Dbrand. Can google for them. And theres someone doing a bulk too in Garage sales. Its good enough to protect the back glass from scratches etc. Not from drops wink.gif but it does a great job of hiding cracks if it ever happens

Hi guys, I just switched back from iOS, hehe in the end, I am an Android guy. BTW, I'm currently using my backup galaxy mini as my main phone after selling my 4s.

Do you guys think I should wait for Nexus 5, or just go ahead with Nexus 4 16gb? Is 16gb enough?
*
I'd definitely say wait for N5. Go for a 32gb version. N5 is going to be released within a few weeks anyway. If follow last year should be early Nov reveal.

I like your red combo,still thinking whether should go for white combo or red combo  hmm.gif
*
Try both tongue.gif I might go for white in a few months time once I get bored of red. Or maybe gold drool.gif

What rom are you using? Try going into the Sound settings. I'm on carbon and there's an option there on what the phone will do when you plug in earphones smile.gif

One question, just flash Carbon ROM. Build number 4.3.1 JLS. Trying to find Hells kernel. Only found JWR, JSS, CM only. Is it okay to flash the JWR?
*
I'm on carbon too. Flashed jwr. So far no problems smile.gif

Looking at LG G2 actually hahaha ... looks innovative and more practical with it's feature although not with the super latest spec.
*
LG G2 currently best Android phone IMO. Great camera with OIS but even better is the battery life. Aces all the battery tests consistently in reviews. Nexus 5 was overhyped. Still happy with my nexus 4 biggrin.gif

IMO, any phone with 3000mAh ++ battery is great. It can simply last for a day with 6-7 hours SOT without any modification. Example is HTC butterfly s and note 2/3.
*
True tongue.gif but not necessarily also. The Z1 has 3000mAH but most reviews say battery life normal only. Not outstanding like the G2. Might be because of that camera also lah tongue.gif but really my only complaint using nexus is the battery. Used g.nex before too and tbh is disappointing that they still don't really improve on battery life.

thanks guys. seems like no easy solution for nexus 4 compared to other nexus devices which just need rooting and app for usb otg.
*
Yeah for some odd reason Google decided against otg on the nexus 4. If you really want it you're gonna need to root, use a kernel which supports otg and have a Y cable. Need an external power source for the otg to work. Can find more details in xda.

Of course with custom kernel, but my Nexus 4 with custom kernel only able to get 3-3.5hours SOT. cry.gif
*
Not all phones are made equally? tongue.gif Even on nexus 4 some people can hit 5 or 6 hour SOT if you look at those in XDA. I'm pretty sure nexus 5 will not be a huge improvement over nexus 4 in battery department unless you're lucky. I came from a galaxy nexus --> one x --> nexus 4 so far all 3 more or less same performance in the battery department.

Seriously... It makes me wonder... Whether is all other manufacturer too good at managing battery/power management or is Google too bad at it? No optimization at all??

Nexus 4 has 2100 mAh (Erm... Same as S3???) Nexus 5 has even bigger, at 2300 mAh. But looking at gsmarena's battery test, just as benchmark... S3 is better than both Nexus 4 and Nexus 5, losing out only in talk time.

Endurance rating, S3 50 hours N4 32 hours N5 40 hours despite bigger battery.

Sometimes... It just make me think that Google never care about optimization for battery. Same battery capacity, both running on Android and Google is the core of android yet getting outperformed in this particular sector.

Maybe next iteration of Android, they emphasize on this? Hope so drool.gif

Well I guess this is where they cut corners to make the price more affordable. Nexus devices always using latest tech in terms of proc, ram etc. I remember G.Nexus was the first one with 720p screen rclxms.gif
