Funny stuff, sadly it's probably true!

Rumor has it, that the sand used to make the Nexus 4's silicon, gets collected one grain at a time. After this it is said, that each grain is individually inspected by one of LG's master engineers. If, and only if he deems it to have passed QC, an email is personally sent to Eric Schmidt. Upon Schmidt's blessing, and receipt of the resultant reply, the master engineer passes down the chain of command, that all is clear for the grain to make its way to the assembly line.

With QC like this you'd have thought people could be a little more patient!?

If its just serving media surely you could use a wireless HDD, maybe not to stream straight off of but to swap what you wanna watch for the journey...

Just come off the phone from Google after chasing up my order. I ordered on the 6th December and was given a 5-6 week delivery time. 6 weeks from then is tomorrow and I've had no shipping email hence my call to Google.

I was advised that I should have a shipping email by the end of this week. We shall see....

Hopefully they receive a massive bulk amount on a constant shipping schedule to keep up with demand. Supply everyone with back orders theirs and supply new orders with a realistic and correct timeline.

Nah, can't see that happening unfortunately.

This phone slides around like crazy. If it was the back that was cracked I would just mask it with a cover. Failing that call LG for a price.

Yeh that is what Google told me, problem I'm having is the cracks are increasing and the phone didn't drop since then. I will just hear a random cracking sound and find a new one on the back. I will call LG tomorrow and see what they say.
 
I'm getting sick of the poor battery return on my phone, 11hrs after unplugging and it was at 79% and I hadn't touched the phone at all. Is putting a custom kernel a relatively easy process ?.
 
I know its a matter of preference but would anyone recommend a decent case/bumper/sleeve? I've been looking online but its hard to tell how much bulk things add to the phone

Its extremely simple you just have to unlock the bootloader (which is also very easy) and that wipes everything on your phone.If you wish to unlock and flash a kernel here are some links to watch a video.

First you need to unlock the bootloader/root/install clockwork, lucky all done in 1 easy step. Unlock Tool, just watch the youtube video should explain everything.

After that all you need to do is download the Zip file for the kernel, place it in your phone, restart in recovery mode, then select flash zip, sd card, and locate the file. That is all there is too it.

I have found Franco Kernel to offer great battery life and he is really trying to control how the CPU works for gaming and non gaming tasks to optimize for performance, battery life and heat.

All the best and if anything comes up their are many kind people here to help :D.

Its relativity easy but if your phone is not already rooted. It will wipe all the data when you root. Head over to XDA to find out how to root.

My drain on idle is about 1% per hour on 3G, less on Wi-Fi. But the culprit could be an app draining your battery.
