What do you miss about the note 2? The size or the battery? The nexus is so much more forgiving when in my hands it feels so much better and i can use it when in walking or with one hand haha. But i wish it had the battery life of the note then it would be .. Are you using any battery savers? I actually think this phone is snappier than the note 2 but maybe its just the ROM in running right now.
Can't buy your case  i already have a tech21 case Posted via RS Mobile |

Can't buy your case  i already have a tech21 case Posted via RS Mobile | I'm missing the screen size, native LTE support and few novelty features such as keeping the screen on when you are looking at the screen.
But yes, like you said the Nexus 4 feels so much better in the hands.
I'm not using any battery saver apps or anything.
Although the Note II battery is a beast, the Nexus battery is adequate for me too. I'm always on LTE and with average usage I still have around 50% when I get home from work. Just use franco's r23 kernel. It does wonders to your battery life but give it a day or two to settle after you flashed it.

EDIT: My nexus 4 lasted 6 hours with 2 and a half hours of screen time with the xylon rom......... Posted via RS Mobile

It has more so to do with not giving credit where credit is due
AOKP has come in and replaced Cyanogen since the CMteam is SLOW and can't get their shit together
PA on the other hand, is very niche and isnt a product for everyone

Try to leave a note on your door if you're not there. Tell them to give you a call, deliver another day, bring to a UPS store, or at least give it to a trusted neighbour.

Is the Nexus4 (stock) saving your guys' preference on phone numbers? I keep clicking "remember my preference" to call my gf's cell phone rather than her home, and even made her cell the "main" number. But it still keeps asking me which number to call when I click on her contact picture in frequently called. Is this a bug?
