I'm still debating if franco is worth it or not. Stock kernel is serving me well so far.

There is no correct setting. Every display is different. Read up the thread on XDA

Washed out colours was the first thing I noticed compared to my S3, though I know AMOLED is notorious for going overboard with colour saturation.
Good to know there's an app to fix that, because the n4 screen is a beaut.

I'm just going to leave this note here....
ANYONE TRYING TO SELL THE NEXUS 4 FOR PROFIT ON RS IS GOING TO GET BANNED.
I've already had the pleasure of banning 3 or 4 people already. If you're going to be an asshole and order so you can flip it, go fuck yourself. Do it on CL because RS isn't going to put up with your shit.

Side question, could you load up a touchwiz rom on this phone to get motion gestures to work? Assuming there is one.

First the hardware is pretty different to any Samsung phone out there. Second, if you were to somehow get it working, it'd be buggy like crazy.

Just a quick question for those that have had an s3, what made you switch from the s3 to the nexus 4? Isn't the rooted s3 running cyanogenmod 10 better than the nexus 4?

CM10 on the s3 is more buggy than AOSP on the n4. You get extra customizations with cm10, but it's not as clean-running as AOSP.
For me, I'd like to make the switch to the n4 because of: - IPS screen > AMOLED imo
- the build quality on the n4 seems wayyyyyy better than the s3
- updates straight from google
- LTE aside, it's the fastest android device atm

No flash storage is the killer for me. And before anyone says cloud storage, no thanks.

Posted via RS Mobile | On WiFi, the battery is excellent.
on data (HSPA or LTE), it sucks
LTE seemed about the same in terms of battery use (compared to HSPA)

People really need to stop suggesting the phone has LTE like it was designed to. It only works on one band, and it has to be enabled by a tweak that doesn't stick unless you're rooted.
Also, don't be surprised if LTE functionality suddenly disappears because Google finds a way to stop it.

And this is a Canadian website so its safe to say that 95% of people on here can get lte.. And yeah Google will probably disable it. But people could find a way to get it working again or just stick to 4.2.1 Posted via RS Mobile | |
