***The Official LG Nexus 4 Thread***

Way off topic, but you have 5 Amex cards all in the same name? Never tried to get more than 1 of a type of credit card. Just assumed there would be some sort of 1 card/credit per customer kind of limit?

Yeah, 3 are direct with American Express (Gold, Nectar, British Airways), one's with my bank (Lloyds Avios Duo) and one's with MBNA (Fly BMI). So obviously not!

And sorry, back on topic...
 
Does the phone come with no network branding? Thats the only thing putting me off at the moment.

All Nexus 4's are unlocked and unbranded.

Even if they did come branded it would be so easy to remove (factory images are hosted by Google), but they don't, so it's a moot point.
 
its plenty loud enough, not even looked at upping it past the stock settings even though i have unlocked and rooted

I think it is a tad quiet personally. I set my ringtone yesterday and manually increased it's volume off the phone to help a bit but I certainly wouldn't hear it in my pocket in a pub or similar I don't think.

Do you tend to have to back down on something? I find that can muffle it a bit as the back is perfectly flat.
 
Anyone running a custom ROM?

Looking at installing Paranoid Android, but just wanted to make sure everything works as it should before I do! :D

I only run custom :cool:

PA is rock solid and if you pair that with the Matr1x kernel it should give you good battery life.

I like PA, but can't live without the custom navbar so I'm running AOKP which also has better quick settings features. When there are no notifications and you perform a 1 finger swipe it shows the quick settings instead of an empty notification drawer.

Thanks for the reply, will give the PA and matr1x combo a try.

As a side note, I've got the phone set up just how I like it with all the apps I currently need, is there an easy way to batch back them up and reinstall them after wiping and installing a new ROM? I've got ROM Toolbox installed, was thinking I could maybe do it with that?

Edit? ROM Toolbox works, just ran a backup, will install PA tomorrow morning. :)
