[Q]Nexus 4 differences between US, EU version? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello just searching any info, but tottally can't find. I know about some differences in other devices (for example htc desire is not the one version, special for US region and other for EU, CDMA or GSM ). My question is for nexus 4. Is the same like for EU? It will work in my country if i buy from US? It is cheaper than if i buy it on EU, anyway in my country is unavaiable, so i can't get it. (It will be cool if someone want to make me a gift hehehe, i know it is impossibru)
Can someone show me the differences or al versions? Best regard and thanks (send me a pm if You really think about gift hehe, still have hope to belive in good people)

No difference, same phone sent all over the world. THat's the point of the lack of certain things (LTE) - makes it so Google can make 1 phone for the whole world.

Nexus 4 has LTE

Correction: The Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro SoC in the Nexus 4 has LTE but the Nexus 4 is not a LTE device.
That's like saying the Nexus 4 is a hammer because someone pounded a nail into dry wall with it, It has done it and can do it, doesn't mean it was designed as a hammer however and therefore shouldn't be used as one!

Doesn't matter. The phone itself has LTE and LTE is being used in parts of Canada. So therefore, Nexus 4 is a LTE device.

But anyone can confirm it? Is here anyone who bought Nexus 4 from Us and use it in EU?

Using US nexus 7 internationally

I purchased a nexus 7 as a gift for a family member that lives overseas. Is there anything that will be affected in terms of updates and or general usage aside from the charger? I don't want to give them a headache if I can avoid it, so any info would be a big help before sending it. If there is anything I should know or do in preparation for them I would much appreciate any info, Thanks!

No.I m n Thailand
And. Been in Europe.
So far so good....
So is there no change in the software at all? I apologize I am new to anything nexus as I am mainly familiar with Samsung stuff. I know for instance the galaxy note 10.1 has ics in usa officially and Germany already has Jellybean. are updates like that likely to be the same?
Thank you for the reply!

As far as I know,
I'm going to Asia next few months ( in this case, we use Asia for example) and I called Google regarding my concerns. What I know is that the
GPS and navigation will definitely work.
The play store seem like only the app will work, Movie/music/TVshow/ magazine will not work if I did not remember anything wrong.
Android updates for the Nexus 7 will be continued I think. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks.
Correct.I have no book here...
OTA updates work everywhere, the only thing that changes are the play store offerings
Awesome. Thank you all for the information, I appreciate the help.

Can anyone verify if the Wi-Fi will work on channels 12 and 13? I know some US devices don't like my Sony Xperia.

[Q] Does Anyone know about this?

Just wondering if anyone would know the Nexus 4 is going to work in Taiwan?
I want to buy a Nexus 4, and I'm going to Taiwan soon. Does anyone know if the phone will work in Taiwan?
How about the OTA update for phone? Does it matter what country you stay?
Google customer support doesnt really help a lot by just saying yes and yes - -llll
Thanks for the help!
Nexus 4 is a quad-band GSM and penta-band 3G/4G phone, so yes, it goes everywhere.

[Q] Nexus 4 worth?

I am about it buy it off of google so i do not get t-mobile's extra carrier apps that waste my space. currently it is 350 for 16gb and i was wondering if any of you regret buying it or should i purchase it.
Thank you!
Edit: I know there is no LTE, so so battery and camera, are those game changers, if not are there any other major problems?
I bought it 1 awhile back and it was great phone. Back cracked after a week in a case never dropped or abused. That was my only complaint and lack of lte support

T-mobile ones don't come with any extra software. Exactly the same as from Google.

Well he's saying it comes pure stock android. You can also tweak some settings to enable LTE on the Nexus 4 if you want it.

Good day. I am planning on buying but i heard that the only models available at local samsung stores
are the wifi only p600 ones and only 16gb. I want a 32gb model but i am not sure if local samsung stores will ever release it in
the country. Where did you buy yours? What model, price and storage capacity?
If you want 32 gb probably you can buy at the online retailer like kimstore they sold 32 gb lte version but they dont have samsung warranty i guess well 16 gb is good enough for a moderate gamer just add a 64 gb microsd card

Of course you're welcome here, it's the internet! The only reason I see for this thread being exclusive for Philippines is difference in hardware or accessories availability in that particular region that may not benefit others from reading posts here. So far I have not seen anything on this thread relevant to a specific region. But if this thread were to exclude anyone who is not Filipino, then that's just silly. The Philippines and its people are known to be very friendly and hospitable to all ethnicity. Just be prepared if no one bothers to explain any cultural differences because it would be assumed everyone here knows what is being talked about, for example:
1. Can I change my tablet to wake up by saying "Hoy!" instead of "hi Galaxy!"?
2. My wife gets mad at me when I use my tablet while we're eating dinner. She says it's too hard to clean the rice off the display. (some Filipinos prefer to eat with their hands)
3. My wife got mad at me for cursing at the tablet in front of the kids. I was only using voice search for Manny's next fight! (Pacquiao, some Filipinos can't pronounce the letter F, so F*** you could sound like Pacquiao)
By the way, I'm not racist, I'm FBI. Full Blooded Ilokano.

My wife hates my tablet compared to her iPad. She says my S-Pen is so small, whenever she drops it on the floor she can't pick it up with her toes.
Don't worry about anything, this is a good thread. I've got a 32 gb, P-605 bought from Hong Kong.I love the snapdragon variant than the exynos version. I have to change the ROM though. Is this available in the Philippines? How much?

T-mobile offering nexus 6p soon?

Nexus 5 and 6 became available at t-mobile between Nov. 14-19. So I'm assuming 6p will become available in the next week or so.. Still not sure if I want this device or not considering new devices will be equipped with the new SD820 or exynos 8890..

It's been said before that they wouldn't be sold in stores, take that for what ever you think. However people are still waiting on their pre orders so I highly doubt it.

Did some more research and what you said is true. I just wish I can finance their phone without having to join project fi since I'm already with T-Mobile... And I know I can finance it through huawei but there's an interest, I might have to do more research.
Why don't you call t-mobile yourself and find out?

I called T-Mobile and I was told that they are not carrying Nexus 6p or Nexus 5x anytime soon and I can purchase it from Google. I even left a comment on T-Mobile official YouTube and was told same story.
By the time 820 devices are out they'll be an 830 or 850 ..... You'll never have the newest
