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

I'm down to 2% after just over 3 days on my first charge but I've been stuck at 2% for about 2 hours and no amount of Google Music will kill it :o

Will judge battery performance after a full recharge but I usually get 4-5 days on average.

In some ways I miss my Nexus 4, plus playing with Lollipop on my Nexus 7, I can see its a nice update...

But...


Pats Lumia 830 which is still on 72% battery (off charge since 5:30am) and I've been playing with my new toy loads!! :D

Sorry guys...

Don't be sorry. You're stuck with Windows Phone 8. At least we have a nice OS with our under powered batteries:p
 
Mehhh my N4 still hasn't done any OTA update for Lollipop. Don't want to manually do it.

My Moto G 2014 hasn't had a sniff yet either and my N7 2012 (3G) hasn't had any OTA either.

Considering 2 of my 3 devices are nexus this waiting game sucks
 
No ota here either, Apple may be pricy but you get the best service. Updates roll out to everyone at same time, hardware issues are swapped in store etc. Its mind boggling that Google doesn't have the server capacity to push out update to all nexus devices on same day. Or the software engineers to test it across the different devices, if Apple can do it google has no excuse.

I think you need to read this:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...to-never-clear-google-service-framework-data/

It's nothing to do with server capacity and everything to do with ensuring that major bugs aren't pushed out to all users at once. The amount of negative attention Apple get after every major iOS release is reason enough, I suspect.

Sideload it if you need it that badly, I did and it worked fine.
 
Yep, and although its frustrating when you are waiting for an update (as I currently am at the moment), I think the phased roll out is a much better approach. The problems Apple have been having recently reinforce this.
 
I have downloaded every update from Apple on release day and never had a issue, not every one does this so any bugs are disruptive to only a % of users probably not much different from a staggered rollout. Point is if you want the OTA you can get it on day one with apple with google who knows.
 
And my point is that that's not how Google do things and never has been. Your options are to either sideload the update manually or be patient and wait for the OTA. Apple's customer service is really of no relevance.
 
When I did have an iPhone I used to try downloading large updates the day they were released and it was always a massive ball ache, and you'd often see people ranting about it... And they've clearly had big issues recently...
 
In my opinion its better the way apple does it, in your opinion its googles way, let's just agree to disagree. I prefer to get updates on release day officially though a ota that's why I prefer the way Apple does it, that is all.
 
I updated my n4 to lollipop and its now dreadful, phone is pretty much unusable. Constant lag, apps crashing, no signal. Whats the best way to get it back to kitkat?

I had exactly the same thing on mine.

The only way of getting back to KK is a flash which will lose all data.

I ended up backing up data and doing a factory reset. L is now running fine with the applications that I needed re-installed.

It was not a ram/memory problem as I had plenty of each.

My suggestion would be a factory reset after a back up.
 
Finally got my OTA update this evening, I was a bit worried after reading a couple of the posts above, but seems to be running just fine, a little clunky immediately after the update but okay after a few minutes.
 
Updated my N4. Errored the first time trying to install, then insisted that 4.4.4 was the latest again for an hour. Plugged it into the charger and eventually it showed the update again (which it proceeded to download again).

Only gripe is getting used to swiping upwards to unlock to desktop/screen. Everything else seems fine except for hangouts not updating or failing to send sometimes but that could be the new hangouts update.

Thanks for the suggestion, did the hard reset and phones now working fine on lollipop :)
 
Couldn't find an android 5.0 thread so thought I would ask in here.

Got lollipop on my nexus 4 now and I like that you can make message notifications sensitive so nobody can read them from your lock screen but this also hides the sender identity.

Is there a way to customise the notifications further and hide the message content but not who sent it?

Would like the same with e-mails/what's app if I'm honest.
