Hello, I'm really stuck with the Sixaxis app. I'm rooted and my dual shock 3 pad is original. I have paired the pad via a pc and the Sixaxis app with an otg cable. The pad works great using the cable but over blue tooth it takes ages (10 seconds) to connect and after this the pad fails to work (1 light on pad lit up) but no control on nexus 7 with pad. The Sixaxis setting for use game pad is checked. I'm starting to wonder if the nexus 7 blue too this borked.

However, I do have a question of my own that can hopefully be answered by someone.
I have everything working fine with my dual shock, but for all games I always map my keys mapped (dead trigger, nova 3, sonic 4 e 1.... etc). For some games, such as Max Payne and GTA3 and from what I've heard dead trigger as well, have native gamepad support. How do I enable this feature in native supported games? In particular, dead trigger. (That is if DT even has native support..)

You need to "Enable Gamepad" in sixxaxis settings so native apps can see your controller.

I'm having similar issues: I'm using MapMyRun on Xylon/Franco, and it reports very strange distances. It's very weird because I can pull up the map on the app, and it looks right. When I upload the route to their web interface and access it from my computer, the distance gets calculated correctly. But the phone vastly overestimates the distance traveled (up to 10x--i.e. 30 miles for a 3 mile run).
Google maps and Foursquare are dead on, and GPS activates quite quickly.

I just saw we're both using Franco's kernel. Maybe that's the problem?

Also if you dont wait until Endomondo says GPS ok in the bottom left of the screen the it uses the last know GPS location, and moves you to where you actually are when it gets GPS lock. I hav experienced this on ALL older devices (havent been out with the N4 yet)
RunKeeper has been working fine on the other Nexus 4 in my house (distances are almost exactly the same as the Inc's were).

SportsTracker works perfectly for me. Much better than on the crappy GPS of my g2x, and better than my old Nokia c7.

Title says all.I've been playing NOVA 3 and NFS MW,Spiderman,batman... on my nexus 7 32gb 3g with trinity kernel @ 1.5ghz OC ,stock ROM.And FPS is pretty low according to me because its little laggy seems like i have 25-30~ fps.So how can I improve performance of these games?
AFAIK, those games are not fully optimized for nexus 7 so there's nothing you can do right now. You can try to over clock the GPU using "trickster mod" dload it in play store then swipe all the way to the right and change the GPU max frequency to 700 then set to boot. Check to see if u gain some performance. Don't forget to click the thank you button if I helped

I have tried over clocking my GPU earlier and it ended with speaker blown or something like that ,but after reboot it got little better, so I'm kinda scared doing it again.Maybe there are some other tweaks for these games?

I wouldn't crank it up to 700mhz that's really the limit of most of the nexus 7 gpu's. When I'm gaming I set my CPU at 1.5-1.6Ghz and my GPU to 520 or 600mhz if it starts getting really hot just back off the over clock until you find a nice medium, I can run NFS:MW at 1.6Ghz/520mhz and its great

Or the other option is to turn off GPU Scaling when playing that particular games. Then turn it back on when finished playing

It essentially allows the GPU to run free, at the loss of heat and power consumption.

Find "Trickster Mod' on Google play. You also need a kernel that supports it, if you pure performance go with trinity kernel

Don't do go into the developer settings, like what triscuit said, use trickster mod from Google play to turn off GPU scaling.

I tried it on my nexus 7 before and it worked for me. Then after playing those graphically intensive games, I just under clock it again to 446mhz. I used trinity kernel that time. But now I changed to Bricked Kernel to have some balance performance/battery.

Yeah, too many people lately are OCing to the max without knowing the implications
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
Always take your oc in steps, just because your kernel will let you overclock to rediculous limits doesn't mean you should, this is why they all have the 'its not my fault if you break things' disclaimer.
Also, for nfsmw, overclocking your CPU will actually make the game use higher graphic settings, if you want better performance use 1.3ghz CPU and set your gpu to 520

Hello Guys! I need some help plz
I'm from asia and I like to use WeChat to keep in touch with my friends(whether you guys know it or what, this app is popular in mainland of China)
Here comes the problem: new message wont be pushed to my Nexus 4 after I locked my phone for a while.
I'm doing all kinds of tests these days. I finally reflashed the factory image yesterday. After flashing the image I did nothing but install WeChat.
Then I logged in and locked my phone and waited for 15 minutes. No interrupt during this 15 minutes. Then I used my iPhone to send a WeChat message to my nexus 4. NO NOTIFICATION......the notification came out after I turned on the screen and unlock the phone. WTF:crying:
By the way, my nexus 4 connects to my wifi all day long. I've already turned off the wifi optimize and I chose to keep the wifi connection when the screen turns out.
I also noticed that when I locked my phone for a while and turn on the screen, the signal icon is grey. After 1 or 2 seconds it will turn blue. I know the blue color means the phone is connected to Google. So I guess the phone will disconnect wifi after locked for a while? I have no idea about it...
Other IM apps seems having the similar issue... I dont like to miss my friends' message and keep them waiting...
Can you guys help me out? Thanks!!!

let me ask the obvious.. how much space do you have left in your storage? i believe antutu needs you to have at least 300mb left, if not more, so it can run the write/read tests.

antutu doesnt brick phones. the n4 has an issue with the battery, how its read(red light of death). heat can bring it on. the only role that antutu plays here is that it can produce high heat if benching high cpu speeds.
