I just read that the nexus 4's production has been stopped by lg because they are working on a new nexus device. Has anyone heard anything about this?

if you read it online than most likely it's true...

http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/4229...4-buy-price-supply-successor.htm#.UO-meGfjFek
It's true

The nexus device is supposed to be only 1 device supported by Google. Not create a whole line of nexus products to get rich off of, way to screw over the people who waited desperately for this phone and/or stuck in shipping limbo

This will be the single most outrageous thing I've ever read about a smart phone. The phone sells for two hours in total over like 4 months and they kill it for a new phone. They should have just haulted the N4 altogether.

That the most retarded site and article i ever read... It was so bad My PC cleared its own History and Cookies after loading the site.

well... nothing's really happened for a month outside of the US...

I highly doubt that is true since so many people are still waiting to buy it why would you stop selling it? And T-Mobile is said to start carrying it at every location.

Look everyone. This person talks common sense, and he does it in a thread without any.
XDA may catch fire.

They are assuming a lot in that article...i dont doubt that LG may be working on the next nexus but the writer takes the leap from a quote that says LG is going to release it's next gen phone at WMC to it being the next nexus. I bet LG is going to be releasing some new Optimus phone but not the N4 successor. Even the writer states that the halt in production are just rumors. LG barely launched the nexus 4 as is, maybe they are working on a 5+ inch Nexus. Here's to hoping there's going to be a nexus 5, 6, 8, and 9 to complete the nexus line.

Well duh obviously LG is gonna show off some prototypes and tech at wmc. I'd be more worried if they didn't announce anything. Besides all the stuff from wmc well be lucky to see in stores by Q4.

Nahh... Not gonna happen. LG just can't keep up that's all..

I was more interested in the get rich quick penny stock article. Or maybe the other sensationalistic crap on that site. Too bad I can't get back the two minutes I wasted there...shame shame...

Uhm, this is essentially the content of the article: "rumours have it that the company seized the production of the smartphone to focus on the development of its future offerings", the rest is just a speculation.
If "rumours have it" == "it's true" then yeah, we will see the new nexus phone next month, sure.

Lol. Just lol.

I work for LG and I can confirm this article is true......
BS, I don't work for LG and the only thing I can confirm to be true is that, I love my nexus 4 more than any of my previous android phones (Hero, Desire HD, Sensation, Evo 3D, One X)......

LG called me directly,saying that Nexus 4 production is stopped cause all the people working at Lg's production lines is currently at the Bahamas,on the beach...

5 Nexus Devices?

Remember when the rumors were floating around about Google releasing '5' Nexus devices by the end of the year? I'm still wondering if these rumors are true.
1. Nexus 7
2. Nexus Q
3. Nexus 10
4. Nexus 4
5. ?
Google has released two tablets, a media device, and one phone. Wouldn't it be nice to have a 2nd Nexus phone? What about the whole 5" HTC Nexus phabet that was rumored? Is there one last device to come out by years end?
There will be no extra device to come out. The 5th device is the new version of the Nexus 7 they announced.
I doubt they will muddy the waters with another mobile device esp a phone, the Nexus 4 has a 4.7inch screen releasing a 5inch phone would be stupid business sense, for a mobile phone it makes much better sense to just have one, it helps the developers and it helps the consumer, as apps can be created and installed knowing that they will always work.
If they were to release another device it would be something different, not a phone not a tablet, perhaps a 'Nexus TV' (a set top box like a Google TV).
Maybe the nexus TV could be a proper smart TV made in collaboration with LG, with android on board... that would be nice

In all honesty, it was Verizon that gave CDMA Galaxy Nexus a bad name.

i agree with you. the HSPA+ nexus 7 would be the 5th one. so thats it until next year

[Q] Missed Nexus 4 in Canada again! What should I do?

OK so I was at work and missed the chance to get the nexus 4 again! Supposedly gonna take 7-8 weeks now to ship according to mobilesyrup. NOw if I do get the chance to get the Nexus 4 again in a couple weeks, I will recieve it in March or Feb. My question is that is it worth it to get a November phone in Feb? Now I have a **** lg xenon and gossip which I could last out till next year for the Nexus 5, or I might get the s4. Should I wait?
What is expected from Nexus 5 and S4
-1080p screen
-10-12mp camera
-2ghz processor estimate
-2gb ram or maybe 2.5-3gb
-5inch screen
-Quad core maybe more?
Overall I think the smartphone as we know it is going through a transition phase so should I wait? I don't have enough money to get a new phone every year like some people. I buy a phone for 2-3 years. Will I be stuck with old technology with this phone?
-WHAT THE FUUDGE SHOULD I DOOO????
Mod please move to q&a if you think that is were it should be!

You're asking us for advice to speculate on a phone that is unreleased (better yet, a year away)?
Yes, get the Nexus 5. Historically, a newer Nexus is better than an older Nexus. Might need confirmation on that though.

I was going to say nexus note. The nexus version of the galaxy note that could be soon.

Only you can answer the question of whether you should wait. In Feb the nexus 4 will still be a great phone. Is only 3 months old on 2/13. You seem to think your current phone will last to next November for nexus 5. If you think that just wait.
In the end you have to use the device, no one can tell you what to like or what works for you. My wife thinks I'm insane buying a new phone every year. I don't, I like upgrading to the new nexus or whatever the new stock android experience is. Been that way since g1. Just what I like. Others will say go buy a note 2. Since this is the nexus forum you'll find no shortage of posts about how great the nexus 4 is.
Oh, please stop bumping the thread, it's annoying.

Buy nexus 4 or wait for the new google X phone?

Been trying to decide if i want to get the new nexus 4 ( LOOKS AMAZING!) or wait for the X phone that was just announced. I've heard some bad things about the nexus 4 which is making me hesitant. What are your thoughts? I'M still rocking the G2 from way back so im pretty due for a new phone!

Guess it depends on how long you want to wait for the x phone. Its gonna be awhile.

One exists, the other is a rumor.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
It was more of a rumor than an announcement, and i wouldn't expect it to come out any time soon.
Like I'll tell anyone, if you keep on waiting for the next big thing, you'll wait forever.
The answer is simple by answering this question. Does the desire for the nexus 4 outweigh the usefulness of your current phone?
For me, it was a no-brainer. I was not happy with my vivid stock, I did not care for the bugginess (<--- is that even a word?) of the available Roms, but loved aosp.
If you feel you'll be happy with your current phone, then wait until a phone comes out that you must have.
The phone probably won't be out till summer most likely. Then the next nexus will be around the corner. Great hardware or not I don't know if I'd even get one if it doesn't have direct from Google software updates. Don't care if its a different branch than the nexus line... It has to be straight from Google or its no better or worse than the galaxy line from Samsung or the one series from HTC.

Live in the moment. When the next phone comes out, will your next thread be. Get the moto X or the next? Just get it. But then again, good luck trying to get one because they're all sold out

Considering you are using a G2, I would say its time for an upgrade. Get the new Nexus 4.

Don't play the waiting game, just get the N4 b/c the X hasn't been officially announced by Google/Moto.

well put. hang in there, am in the same zone too. Google+Motorola = best of both worlds. As you said your G2 is rocking! So is my X10 thanks to XDA ! specially scritch007:thumbup:
from xda-dev app on x10i
Maybe the x will be like this
NEXUS 4 X (100 gigs storage, slightly better useless something) = $580
and you will say, dudes, I been waiting 3 years and you raise the price for this and add some gigs ?

Thats what im thinking. Ive been babying my G2 so its lasted me a lot longer than others ( the whole loose hinge shenanigans). My phone is still serving its purpose but at the same time i know it wont last that much longer. N4 seems like an awesome device with a few quirks. For those that have the N4 can you tell me what you both like AND dislike about the phone. Want to start weighing the pros and cons.

I love absolutely everything about the phone. Only thing I don't like is the limit on memory (I have the 16GB). It'st he first phone I've owned that has yet to experience any lag or slowdown whatsoever.
I would personally go for Nexus 4 because
1. The x phone is just a rumor and hasn't even been announced
2. If it is going to be sold by Motorola who makes money off the hardware, then the x phone will be more expensive than Nexus 4 by Google who makes money off by software (which explains the price of Nexus 4)

Go to any forum of any device and you will always read a lot of "bad things". There is no perfect phone and people tend to exaggerate their problems. Ultimately, it is you who has to decide if this is the right phone for you.
Oh, and don't play the waiting game. When the new phone arrives, there will be rumours of the next, better one. What then?

Technology is always changing and improving but that doesn't necessarily mean that the improvements will be relevant for your needs.

If it's the same price, it is quite relevant.

First time I don't feel like getting a new phone...

I usually switch phones every 4 months but since I got my nexus 4 I do not feel like getting rid of the nexus 4. Anybody else feels the same out there?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
I do too. Except for the limited battery capacity, the phone feels great. You get to do what you like with it, no oem restrictions and always the first to get software updates.
I too am that type of person but I'm really enjoying the nexus!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Me too! I plan on getting a new one in 2-3 years but only if there'll be another amazing Nexus available
Pretty much this. I'll probably just stick with whatever the latest Nexus is.
Unfortunately I don't feel the same way. This HTC One is calling me and I must get it.

I was drooling over the HTC One when I first heard of it. But then I thought "Mine is better cuz it's cheaper, *****es".

i do... abit for the Z
The Nexus 4 is the perfect phone for me, no doubt about it.
However, being the tech geek that I am there is no doubt in my mind I will grab the Nexus 5 about 6 months after it's released (I don't want to deal with launch-day drama and hardware issues which always seem to plague the initial Nexus releases)
I can say, however, that I will only be buying Nexus phones from now on since they have finally stepped up to the plate with decent hardware and specs. The Gnex was a massive disappointment to me, I sold it within four months of owning it.
Same for me. I had the one x for the last year but it has started giving me trouble by not recognizing the Sim card was in the slot.
I was torn between the nexus 4. HTC one and the galaxy s4.
After much deliberation I went with the nexus 4 and I'm so glad I did.
I owned the nexus one before so I am already accustomed to the nexus experience.
I honestly didn't expect the 4 to be so much better than the one x. Snappier. Better gaming performance and longer battery life.
I'm so glad I switched

Well Google and LG didn't know the Nexus 4 was going to be high in demand. Unlike Apple, the hype for Apple products are higher so the demand is greater therefore a large quantity of Apple products are produced more quickly.
