Over clocking + benchmarks seem to be a bad combo for the Nexus 4

Sounds more like you smoked your phone.

Seems like everyone that has done this exact thing has had the same issue. You will need to call Google support and see if they can help you out. As it stands your phone is toast.

People stop overclocking it. We had like a dozen of reports in here of the phone dying after that.

Agreed. This phone is fast enough. Why push it?

I'm not sure why someone would over clock this phone. Phones are made for everyday usage not for cool high numbers on a benchmark app. If anything this phone could be underclocked to save some battery and it still be extremely usable for everyday life. I hope you can somehow get Google to help you out. If you fried it don't tell them that just tell them you woke up and it was on the charger dead. I've done it before years back in my early days of not reading enough and trying to mod my phone. If you fried it they will probably never know. Just my 2 cents

Strange behavior

I had my Nexus One since last march, and apart from the 2second bug, I had no problems with it at all. I've never rooted it as it is a company phone.
Yesterday, when idle, it rebooted into the bootloader and wasn't responding to anything. I tried to take out the battery at least two dozen times without success until it finally rebooted properly.
The battery wasn't drained (it was at 76% when I managed to reboot) - anyone had similar experience? This is a bit worrying, I don't want to replace my Nexus One for at least two years (or until I fall in love with a phone like I did with this one, and the Nokia N95 before that) I've only had 4 phones since 1999.
- sorry I've posted in the wrong forum, I meant to post this to the Q&A section of the Nexus One forum, I hope a mod can transfer this
any water damage or u dropped your phone by accident¿

New Tab Owner

Yesterday I picked up on google I/O tab on craigslist for 50 bucks because it wouldn't power on. You could charge it but it wouldn't get past the battery icon. However it booted into donwload and recovery mode. I happened to have my car charger from my original tab. So I let it charge on the way home and when I got home I started to dl the odin files but I decided to boot it into recovery and wipe it for ****s and giggles. After it was wiped it powered right on! Already loving this thing.
Congratulations!!!

Nice find. Enjoy your tab.
I've only had mine for about a week and love it! Welcome abroad!
What would be really funny if the original owner appears on here ranting about selling what they believed to be "a dead unit" lol

i wish the battery is great so i can play games with it...
I'm going to do the same thing I do with all of my other phones...use it . As far as making reach its full potential, I'm waiting for a bad ass custom ROM to surface. Once the boards are riddled with new ROMs that really push this hardware, thats when my fun really begins. For now, I'm going to run stock for a couple months to give the development community some time to cook up some awesomeness.

Good luck, on the hox we had trouble getting 2ghz stable, still isn't really. Same CPU ofcourse so I'd assume the same applies here.

Just waiting for a JB AOSP/AOKP or CM10 release in a few weeks hopefully.
I really like JBs new style, and Google Now looks great. If there is a nexus device based on this hardware that would make an almost native porting environment I would be crazy happy!! A guy can dream can't he?
I would have bought a GNex but this hardware is just in another league,

What case are you planning on buying? My sister wants to put on a cell phone charm as well, but the only cases that have a cutout for the lanyard are Samsung cases that we've found so far.
Actually...I liked "Take over the world"
Buying more accessories for it than I need. Cables, cases, batteries, chargers, screen protectors, etc... till I figure out which ones I like best and use most often, then the rest will stay in a box as spares.

I have an iPad 2, as well as a N7 and I'll tell you the 7 inch form factor is so much easier to use in various situations and orientations. I really love mine'. Well I also got it for free since I was t Google IO =)
Mine was defective with a dead pixel, I got it replaced the next day. Great device.
I think the battery could be better, honestly it's around 20% now and I've been using it for around five and a half hours.

well you could replace the screen. or just take it back & get a replacement device. within 14 days verizon would give you a new one. not sure about other carriers.

If it's red it would then be a stuck pixel? There are some ways to potentially fix those (flashing images of different colours very quickly), but being brand new I would replace the phone.

Keep it going for a while.
There's an 8-hour version if you're willing to try that overnight before returning it.

If only one pixel out of 2073600 pixels is stuck or dead and it doesn't affect you much, then keep it.
But if it bothers you, you are fully entitled to exchange your new phone.
Same problem here, bought a S4 this morning with one dead or stuck pixel (green dot on black background).
Already exchanged at the store with no problem.

These things never does. I have had a lot of devices with stuck/death pixels - always seems to be a 1st batch issue. And always we find these "fix" recommendations but they NEVER work Swap it.
I had a red stuck pixel on my Galaxy S2, I removed it by simply rubbing the screen on the dead pixel while applying pressure.
It disappeared and never came back
I'd be devastated rather take it back.
