I've flashed PA, CM, and AOKP.
The next time I decide to flash something, it'll be back on PA, or stock (rooted).
I really see no significant difference in battery life between all these roms and all the kernels I've flashed. When I say significant, I mean 2-3 hour difference on 3G.

hey guys you know what... my ass just itches so goddam hard

ive been watching nexus 4 vids all day and think i can't take it anymore, i'm gonna pull the trigger.

i will still keep my s3, when i KNOW i will be on the phone a lot aka when i go to school (lol) or on a trip or something.

this may sound like a noob question, but are the sim card sizes about the same? i want to be able to switch from phone to phone without much hassle

3 types of most common sims card:

Standard, Micro, Nano

S3 and N4 uses micro
So yes, you can swap between S3/N4 with 1 sim!

GF cracked front glass after 1 month of use (human error).

Google's aftercare services SUCKS. Only directs you to LG.

LG: Can't quote you. Send it in (you pay shipping). We will check and quote you.

Anybody that fixed it how much it is locally? Probably get her to take it to JP celluar, but somehow feels stupid spending 100-175$ fixing the glass when the phone costed ~300$. Sigh.

I don't know why the battery issue for you guys is so severe, but I find the battery life on my N4 to be very very satisfactory. So far I have never had the battery run to less than 50%, even with extended data/wi-fi use; I haven't used any roms or custom kernels either, I'm just using what I've had the whole time since I took mine out of the box

Has anybody picked up the wireless charger? Any good with a case on?

Your usage is probably quite light compared to everyone else.

i ordered the nexus 4 orb... then proceeded to read reviews on forums about it, 90% which were negative.

almost all complaints were pointing to the phone actually slipping when placed on the orb... with some other complaints that the phone will stop charging midway etc.

immediately tried to cancel the order within 5-6 hours (this was during the weekend) but google told me it was too late.

now i'm given the option to "refuse delivery", by posting a note on my door saying im refusing it and the shipper would return to the sender?

has anyone dealt with that process before? i'll be at work during the scheduled day of delivery and i dont know... if i was the UPS guy i will just pocket the package and say " i never saw any gay note on their door "

worried

I'd be worried about that working as well.. I think your best bet is to just try and sell it afterwards

Wow, sounds like Google didn't think this out very well.
Selling an orb that doesn't really work with the phone the way it's supposed to
