I'm rooted but on stock rom, stock kernel. At least root your phone so you can take advantage of:
1. Nexus 4 Display Control. Calibrate your screen so it's not awfully wrong everywhere
2. Titanium Backup.
3. Avast Anti-Theft

EDIT: Also, if you are on a custom ROM, it might not have hardware acceleration yet, hence the lag. Should run fine on stock though.

Posted via RS Mobile | It's always good to install from scratch but I'm always too lazy to do that and since I paid for TI Pro I might as well put it to use. Never ran into any problems because I only backup and restore apps/data and not settings.

Yeah. Exactly. I'm lazy. Lol. I flash a lot so I use TBpro a lot.
I ordered the poetic borderline bumper. Supposed to be slimmer than the oem one, much cheaper, and in stock.

^Google it, plenty of websites explaining it. Or even go on XDA forums, they have a lot of help there.

Posted via RS Mobile | Yup, was probably the first app I paid for. And for those that had 3-4 weeks check your emails, I just received a shipped notice. Posted via RS Mobile | |

I've always been a purist. I like things as-is and not modified, the way the manufacturer intended. So when I had iPhones, I did not jailbreak. I sometimes envied those who had sbsettings because it seriously rocked.
So then I switched to Android, using the Nexus 4. I refused to root at first but gave in because of what I mentioned above. I refused to change the kernel or rom because well, it's not Google. It's third-party, some developer on XDA. Except today.
Holy shit anyone who has or will have the Nexus 4, damn it, root and kernel that thing now. I'm on Franco kernel r21 and not only is the performance better, the battery life is insane. I mentioned how I can only get 8 or so hours of battery before, now I get the whole day.
