Good thing about Franco's app is that you just need to be rooted. You can be on any ROM/kernel. The gamma setting on faux's app requires you to be on his kernel. Fauxclock also costs twice as much as Franco's app.

Wrong. The gamma control works on stock kernel & his.. And the $5 is very much worth it. That app also has a boatload of other features Posted via RS Mobile

You're right. I wasn't updated with his news. It used to only work on faux kernel users.

Anyone adjust the colour with Franco's Nexus 4 Display Control? I just received my second N4 and compared it to my first one and realized it's actually really yellow (never got to spend time with stock at all).
Changed the settings right away with the app to 200 200 255. I just eyeballed this setting to make the whites really white. A popular setting I found on forums is 238 228 240 but I found that still too saturated.
The app does cost $2.60 but it works really well and you don't have to constantly go back and change the settings. Do it once and you can leave it.
Try it and if you don't find a setting you like you can refund it within 15 minutes.
How's battery for all of you guys now? Posted via RS Mobile

How long does the nilkin case take to ship to Canada? I emailed the seller because it's been over 2 weeks and I'm told that it'll arrive end of janurary/early feburary.
when the phone is in sleep/stand-by mode (screen is off) is there any way to wake the phone/turn screen on, other then the power button on the side? Like using the home button or swiping the screen somehow? I've tried searching but haven't found anything... thx
^have you been spoiled by the PlayBook?
Haven't heard of anything of that sort but when you install custom ROMs there is an option to wake the screen with the volume keys

You'll need either a custom rom or a custom kernel. Roms usually allow power or volume to wake. Kernels like faux allow swipe2wake where you simply swipe the screen to turn it on. Mind you this will take up some battery. Posted via RS Mobile
im a super noob with phones and androids, can someone post a reliable link where it teachs you how to root, flash a kernal, franco or whatever... im searching and there's soo many different forums and stuff, dont know which one to trust or use. I'm just looking for a reliable source that shows the step to step. thanks again!l

Generally, I'd say read up as much as you can on androids..
This is the SAFEST WAY you can root your phone
now outside of this, you are on your own...I encourage reading up on android and all the how to's because essentially you will learn just how much of a beast these phones are
look under the original dev section on the N4 via XDA. Franco, Faux and all the roms have their own thread
I would go the adb route, its simpler, and have a bit more control over the device
just my 2c
I've used ADB to unlock/root a few devices in the past so I'm familiar with the steps. There's no comparison when using the root kit, everything is pretty much automated and you just press buttons, no prompts to deal with. To each his own.
