    Old dog, new tricks

    This phone has been collecting dust in the corner of a draw for sometime now but after my galaxy started bugging out I went back to it for a couple days... That was last month. I never thought I'd say it again but i really like this phone. It may not be on kitkat or lollipop but ive tried my...

    Root [CDMA] Motorola Unlock Tool

    I have adb and fastboot installed on my computer. I received my unlock code and put it in cmd. Each time I tried it said the password was incorrect. I found out that it was a bug in 4.4.4 for the moto g and motorola created a patch for it. Unfortunately, I am having trouble flashing the .img to...

    Help Service help

    I recently just bought a nexus 5 on craigslist just to find out when I got home the imei was blacklisted on T-Mobile ( coming from nexus 4). Seeing as how I paid good money for the phone & can't reach the previous owner, can I activate it on a CDMA network like Verizon or sprint instead? It is...

    Moto X 2014 gets lollipop before nexus phones

    I could've sworn that one of the key benefits of having a nexus device was vanilla android before anyone else. This is the 2nd year Motorola got the update before us! I understand that they wanted to iron out the bugs but they should've been done that. Lollipop shouldve been revealed and...

    Nexus 4 Weird

    For the past 2 weeks my nexus 4 was randomly shutting down in my pocket when I wasn't using it & when the battery was about to die. This week, it got worse. The time & date would be off and my wallpaper would always change to phase beam. The battery bar would be incorrect too, sometimes...

    Make it great

    Anyone who has or has owned this phone knows that it is not a top tier performer. A 1 GHz processor and 512 MB of RAM is incredibly dated but being with Android since 09 has let me deal with even worse phones. This phone is one of them until you tweak it right. I'm not referring to rooting...

    Help Funny smell coming from battery, HELP!!

    Upon repairing NY phone the black layer of the battery scratched off a bit but now whenever the phone is on it releases an odd smell which I know is definitely from the battery. If I wrap electrical masking tape (black tape) around the whole battery do you think it would block the smell? Its...

    Help Battery Connector Screws

    I'm in the process of repairing my screen but I need to remove the battery. However, the screws connecting the battery to the motherboard will not come out (I am using the proper tool) and are stripping when I apply the littlest pressure. Damn Google employee must've screwed them on too tight...

    Nexus 4 EOL,... When?

    Every smartphone reaches a point where it is no longer officially supported to receive further software updates & so forth. This stage in the phones life is called the EOL (end of life). I love my nexus 4 and to this day it still runs better than most phones but I can't help but feel like it's...

    The Nexus Collection

    With all of the rumors going around about the possible ending of the Nexus program next year I am thinking of starting a nexus collection. From the Dream (though not officially a nexus) to the Nexus 5. It'll be sad to see my 4 on display on a shelf in my room but to have all of the greatest in...

    An official ROM is going to be available for flashing for our phone specifically soon and I was curious if anyone was going to run it on their nexus 4

    Anyone get the OTA yet?

    So did anyone get it? I'm still waiting to get mine. I understand the process can take up to 2 weeks but I'm just curious if anyone did receive the update yet

    ART=SRT for Android

    I just switched my runtime on my Nexus from dalvik which the phone was running by default after the update to ART and my god is this thing blazing again. If my Nexus was a car, it just went from a Dodge Dart to an SRT8 Charger with all the heart if a Hemi motor in it

    Nexus 4

    I'm sitting at the dinner table with my nexus 4 and my cousin is sitting across from me with the nexus 5, and a thought hit me; the Nexus 4 is the Nexus 5's hotter older sister lol. Just had to point it out

    Red Notification Light

    There were stories long ago that said the Nexus 4 had a red notification light. I was wondering if anyone has seen it yet? I've only seen green, white, and blue.

    Google Play Music Shortcut

    I'm not sure if anyone else picked up on this but if your music is playing all you have to do is hold the play button from the lockscreen and a scrubber will come up for you to either fast forward or rewind to wherever you want in the song. Holding the forward and reverse buttons will bring up...

    Root Flashing CWM on stock 4.4

    I just updated to KitKat when the factory images became available. My nexus 4 has never had any custom recovery or root access on it since the day I bought it but I would like to flash the mod that will make my lock screen status and nav bars transparent. CWM and TWRP will get the job done but I...

    Help Any news on a battery life fix?

    Ever since the 4.3 update, myself and many others have noticed a major change in battery life on the phone that is no where near good. Have you guys heard anything on a possible 4.3.1 update to address the issue or are we just going to have to wait for kitkat?

    Who's Updating to KitKat 4.4?

    Of course the N4 is getting kitkat but the question is, who's updating their device. I personally think the UI has lost its sleek look but will be updating just because Ill be able to say i have the latest android software to date while no one else dose (except for later nexus devices). Is...

    Goodbye Friends

    Well everyone, its been a great adventure with this phone but everyone must move on at some point. I just ordered my Nexus 4 so I'm gonna be heading over to their side for awhile. I'll still be around to help out anyone who's having trouble but not as much now. Hope the force stays with you...

    Streaming Music

    Hey guys. I am considering buying this phone but I don't like the fact that you can't expand the memory with an SD Card. So the solution for storing music is Google Play Music. How is the streaming service for you guys, particularly sprint users?

    What the Nexus 5 BETTER have

    I have always loved the nexus phones and the perks behind them. But I cannot stand one trend specifically that has been following us since the Galaxy Nexus S... lack of MicroSD card expansion. If you are someone like me for example who has a lot of music, pictures, videos and so forth then...
