Guys, I've done updating N4 to 4.4. But what I notice is that the dialer's call log and dialer is not displaying my contact. Instead it just display phone numbers, no contact names, I checked my 'people', it shows all my contact though.

Is there a way to enable call log to show contact name instead of number?
*
Mine able to show no issue. Try check if your contact synced or not ?

my nexus front screen is cracked.
I read the first page that repair at lg service center cost rm350.
Is it better to let LG service center or some phone repairing shop to repair my nexus 4?
will there be any difference in price?
*
I once cracked my Nokia 5610 screen. Introduce by my friend, it was repaired through his friend cheaper than service center. I guess charges depend on material.

Don't think so. Some shops actually quote higher.
RM350 can be considered a reasonable price for a 720p 4.7" screen.
*
To replace a whole screen, RM350 was dirt cheap.

News that some unfortunate nexus4 users faced several errors after update to KitKat, mostly from OTA update.

damn after i change to ART, my whasapp kaput, got error. any idea?

ART was not ready for daily usage yet, that's why Google didnt put it as default. Revert back to dalvik for now.

btw just updated my n4, although i really appreciate the change under the hood (all is faster), im sad on how gooogle treat n4. at least make the UI looks the same as n5. kamon google, my n4 is only 1 gen behind. no transparent key at top n bottom, my app drawer still can go to widget, generally looks the same as 4.3. so what next, no 5.0 for n4 coz out of 18month life cycle, like the poor gnex?
*
You can always install Google Experience Launcher using apk. Works perfect on mine, transparency and 'Ok google' command.

KitKat does have battery percentage, but was disabled by default. Mine was enabled, but less useful when your battery more than half.

First two run shows no differences, but 3rd run onward shows slight increase.

how to scrennshot on 4.4?

Had similar problem after I upgraded to 4.3 and now to 4.4, Vol Down + Power button seems to be less 'sensitive', low chances of taking screenshot with that key combination now.

I wonder can we just do Clean Flash from CustomROM(4.3/4.2.2) to CustomROM(4.4/4.4.1)? hmm.gif
and then just flash another Radio(4.4) for it? would it be less hassle than side-load or OTA thing?

I did mine like that.
