The March 8, 2013, I bought in google play, 2 mobile devices Nexus 4. I bought them because it was a model powered by google and I thought it was going relatively well.
I've been very disappointed with this phone. The whatsapp, emails, lines, gtalk, etc. have a latency impressive. Some whatsapp slow to go over 20 minutes! When you send line messages, get a shipping error and you have to give forward constantly. I tested and in 4 different operators: Amena, Orange, Movistar and Telstra, and none works well. Say it clear, that the APN is configured properly (I assure you). In fact, this same setup I've tried the other 4 terminals, HTC Wildfire, Galaxy Ace, Iphone 4 and Galaxy s2, and all works correctly. In contrast, in the Nexus 4 is grief. I do not know what to do, I can not contact Google to return the phone and give me a solution either.
Does anyone in this respectable forum knows how solve this serious problem with the nexus 4? Are there any hidden settings to solve this internet problem?
I would do very happy if guys could give me a solution to this problem because the phone I liked a lot, but if I can not find any solution, I will have to get rid of it.

id say that you are having app issues, not nexus 4 issues. i dont use whatsapp, i use gmail for emails, and gtalk all work great on my end. try factory resetting your devices.
Tough luck. Now, sell it to someone who will flash CM on it and appreciate it's glory.
Must be your location.. No lag issues here on any of the apps you have stated..

Impossible
Since I did one factory reset on both phones and installed cm10 one of the devices, but the problem persists. As I said in the previous thread, I've tried with several telephone companies with APN configured correctly. On other phones like the galaxy ace or htc wildfire running, but in the nexus 4 posts slow to arrive between 10 and 20 minutes.
I think I'll have to buy another phone.
Someone offered me a good deal for both phones?
They were bought in Google Play the March 8, 2013.
In my opinion LG Nexus 4 malfunctioned.
Data sending delays
Bug report here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=52260
You can get a small improvement by installing a custom kernel (Harsh works for me). I almost want to tell you to return your phone and make sure Google knows about the problem. Once people start returning their phones, maybe Google will look into fixing this. :crying:
Return the phones
How I can I contact google to return the 2 phones?

Here is the factory image for the nexus 4: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occamjdq39
I think you can flash it without rooting or unlocking your bootloader, or you can simply unlock then flash then lock your bootloader again. There are some instructions here. You can try it without unlocking your bootloader first, and if that fails, unlock it temporarily. Flashing like this WILL DEFINITELY wipe your data, including /sdcard, so backup to computer.

This is definitely a software or radio problem, because it wasn't an issue in the earlier versions of Android. Furthermore, installing a custom kernel like Harsh mitigates the problem. I hope the next version of Android will fix this, but I'm worried the Google engineers don't even know about it. I think it's provider-related, and this problem may not exist in the US.

That would be sad, but you gotta do what you gotta do. The next version of Android is expected to be released in about 3 weeks. You could return the phone and buy it again when you know this issue is fixed. Or you could wait. (But if you wait too long, do you lose your right to return the phone? It is defective, so in your country you probably have pretty strong rights in this area.)

Are you absolutely sure that:
1. You had a problem where outgoing data was delayed by up to a minute (in all applications, not just WhatsApp)?
2. You did not change service providers or plan or SIM card?
3. The wipe solved your problem and messages are now sent immediately?
I'd like to try this if it helps, but it's a huge effort. Thanks!

Totally out of left field: dell released a new rom for softbank.
The changelog does not seem to state much.
Android 2.2.2
Build date: Jul 10, 2012
Build: 29579
Dell Stage 1.6
The rom is completely identical to 366 except for the following files:
<root>\boot.img
<root>\amss.mbn
<root>\dbl.mbn
<root>\dsp1.mbn
<root>\osbl.mbn
<root>\system\build.prop
<root>\system\app\quickoffice.apk
Out of all those, only boot.img seems to have changed more then just being resigned/trivial changes.
Dell normally holds a rom for 1 month to test before releasing, but the normal release date for a rom built in july would be mid/late august.
So for whatever reasons: they held it back for a month.
It also only includes a trivial amount of changes, so it's not much more then going though the motions of a release
I received the update SMS today and came here to check. Figured you would have some additional info on this.
Still Froyo? I guess I'm never getting a phone from Softbank again.
Blame Dell/Qisda's dell team/Softbank
The SPro's still on GB too.
The Lenovo LePad S2005 (ie the "Opus one") got ICS back in April.
I dont even know why they released 369, I cant tell if it even changed anything as far as softbank's changelog is concerned.

maybe the user or the dev is old school type .. and pretty much on comfort zone...
Official roms arnt custom roms, they cant simply release it and hope there's no serious issues. They have to have staff on hand to test for 3 weeks before releasing.
Even if they only changed like a dozen lines of code at best for it.

I currently sport the Dell official 360 rom and I was wondering if it was worth the bother of udating to this one? has anyone given it a go and does it work?
Any pointers would be appreciated! Also interested in whether it requires a complete reset or if it upgrades leaving data/apps in place? :fingers-crossed:

Well I took the plunge and generally I am pleased with the results. Wifi seems much more stable and most things work, although mms does not seem to be working at the moment. Also softbank does not come with a sms app pre-installed, instead they use their own combined messaging app which I have not tried yet. I installed an sms app from the market and it works ok, apart from mms

The MMS issue I was having was me being an idiot - I had run out of credit I have never used Wifi Hotspot. There is an app that comes rolled into this rom which seems to be for tethering but i have not used it. The WiFi in general is excellent and seem way more stable that any other ROM I've used to date (and I've used quite a few). I think it may be easier to look up a 3rd party (barnacle I think) tool to get the tethering working - but I know very little about this.

I've been using it for a while and generally all is good. It seems better on battery than the 360 rom, the WiFi seems more stable, though I do get the odd issue with it not connecting but far less than any other rom I've used. I do not use tethering and I know that is not present, but there are apps in the market to do this anyway. SuperUser.zip also happily rooted it with no issues. It does seem to be quicker than other Froyo roms too - so overall I'd say it's worth an upgrade. Be aware that the native messaging app will not work on it for some reason, but Handsent or Go SMS are just fine and dandy - unless you run out of credit (see earlier post by me)
If I had to stick to a single rom this would be the one. I am tempted to go for DSC and I've been told by the author that it can be flashed over this rom - so I may report back when 1.6 is rolled out fully and I've installed it to give a comparison.
I hope this helps!
I've looked and haven't found any links for what I'm looking for which is just the amss and dsp1 files to flash in fastboot... anybody got those uploaded anywhere? I hate to flash the entire ROM just to extract those two, but if I have to then I just have to... thanks guys for any help
Hi Guys!
I've just picked up a Nexus 7 32gb 3g and it's amazing to say the least. I can't believe for something just over £200 I have a full up to date android experience with premium hardware. Anyway what I was wondering was could I use this device to replace my recently broken Samsung Galaxy S1 (i9000). By which I mean make calls over 3g cellular. I want to pop in a contract sim and just use the minutes and texts of that and I was wondering whether it was possible?
I've done my research and apparently it's as simple as just copying over the default phone apk and it should work although I'm a bit skeptical as I've only seen one thread about. So what do I need to do to make cellular calls on the Nexus 7?
Regards,
Enya
P.S. I don't mind holding a 7" tablet to my face to make calls, I'd probably just use hands free anyway, and I don't mind rooting or flashing roms.
sorry for the off topic
but where did you get your 32gb 3g from - as ive only seen pc world, currys etc selling the wifi only for 200 pound...
would also like to know about the sim card and making calls / texts with the 3g model
thanks

N7+3g will sell in uk! Check it via proxy 62.233.100.46:80
I am also looking for an answer to this question, i can't find any answers, would you be able to try the phone apk and report back. I am not sure if you need rot access to do that.
Also interested, if only because the carrier that my SIM comes from occasionally requires me to make a call to their automated attendant when their online management tool isn't working.
Metaphorically speaking, Oh and yeah I'm probably going to try the phone.apk although I was wondering if anyone has had any experience or anything?
Oh and to put the phone.apk app back on I think you'll either need root access or ABD, but don't take my word for it, I'm no expert lol,
Uh-oh, just read that the N7 3G support won't be in AOSP for now because they weren't able to licence the GSM stack for AOSP
Wait, so you can't just push it into a system app i=in adb by extracting it from another phone that's running AOSP?

No idea. As of yet the only AOSP phone with 4.2 is the GNex (Nexus 4 is not in AOSP yet either due to the same licensing issue).
And unless devs find a clever workaround, N73G isn't going to get the same scope of ROMs as the wi-fi version until they sort out the licensing.
Any results yet?
enya123101, did you try the phone.apk ? I'm really eager to find out if the NExus 7 can make phone calls and I can't find answers anywhere
please let us know
Please don't keep us in suspense. This data is what I need to determine between the Nexus 7 or the 10. I find it odd that this question is not being ask more on the net. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1958686 is the only other thread really that's asking this question and not just some random mentioning of it in a sea of Nexus 7 threads out there.
Thanks again for being the guinea pig.
you can not just push phone.apk in fact your device ALREADY has phone.APK and if you try to push it then you will receive the message "you are replacing a system app.
the reason you cant USE or SEE it is because of the way our framework.res is compiled and it is not set as a phone device it is set as tablet among other settings that are different as well.
its not that easy but hopefully once its out in full force then developers will figure out a way perhaps with custom roms that allow it.
any info yet

It's been said the the Fitbit app has been hardcoded to work only with certain devices. I think some users have even tried to edit the build.prop to spoof another phone and it didn't work. I think you'll have to wait for Fitbit to update their app. Maybe you should contact them and push for Nexus 4 support. I'm sure a lot of Flex owners are doing the same!

Has anyone had any luck with getting it working now? Apparently the app has been updated and it does work, it's just 'unsupported' (meaning they won't offer support if you have problems).

Has anyone had any luck with getting it working now? Apparently the app has been updated and it does work, it's just 'unsupported' (meaning they won't offer support if you have problems).

I know it's not terribly helpful for the Nexus 4 (and this is the Nexus 4 forum, but I digress) but it's working quite well on the Galaxy S4 GE now. Prior to the app update, there was no way to communicate between the phone and the flex. Now, it's working just as well as the iPhone app.
Good luck!

So fibit and nexus, worked?
I don't think so. And when I was on my S3, it would only work on stock ROMs.

just modify the /system/build.prop file so that:
change the
ro.product.model=GT-I9505G
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
and save those settings, reboot, and now Fitbit will try to sync now. I used the Build Prop Editor from JRummy. play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor

both the instructions and the editor worked great for me.
I've set it to manual sync only though since fitbit did say background sync broke after 2 days on the N4, will be interesting to see how it goes from here.
This build.prop method works but it breaks Auto focus on the camera....... Damn,..... Why is this taking so long to support the N4?

ah! I was wondering what happened with that. I dont use the camera much
Running 10.2 on my big red S3, changed the value to 9505,
And it still will not pair. It shows up as available, but that's it
Any ideas?

Well, deleted old apk, installed new, double checked that Build prop value says GT-I9505G, but I still get the "cannot communicat with" error message.
XDA Fitbit App
One xda dev (see link) updated the latest version of the Fitbit app (1.8.1 as of the time of this writing) to skip the device check and sync anyways. Worked great on my T-Mobile Galaxy S3 running LiquidSmooth (CM 10.2) and is reported as working on devices:
- Google Nexus 4
- Google Nexus 7
- Galaxy Nexus (some firmwares require additional BTLE drivers)
- LG G2
- HTC One
- Samsung Note 3
- Samsung Galaxy S3, S4 (custom ROMs)
I can finally set the silent alarm without having to go to my PC! Haven't seen any issues so far, but it appears that you'll want to disable background syncing (I'm guessing it drains your battery more than usual if you leave that enabled?)
Help!
I got a LG G2 D-802 International (From Denmark), with CM 10.2 latest nightly, and i am unable to get this to work.
1. If i go to Bluetooth i can see my Flex device, but it cant connect.
2. When i open the Fitbit app i get the sync option, and it seems like its trying, however it never establishes a connect.
3. I have reset my Fitbit Flex several times.
Can anyone help me, or hint towards a solution?
Hi all,
Do you think the 6P will work without battery drain or connectivity problems in Mainland China? Anyone using the 6P as their daily in mainland China. I don't want to move on from my Note 4 N9108v, if I'm going to find that the Huawei is bogged down with problems due to Google issues. I can use a VPN to get apps etc when I wnat, but if it is essentially compromised at a hardware level, than I cannot go there. Would love to get into a nexus now that the camera is near high standard. Anyone?
Also, Should be fine getting the HK version rather than the US version, right?
Ok - Not much of a response here. However, I was able to get a few PM responses and used another HK thread. Have decided to have a friend pick one up from HK for me and will know very soon whether or not it was a big mistake to Nexufy in Beijing China.
ive been using a 6p international version (HK) the phone works in china mobile as well as Unicom, 4g speeds are awesome... as for the battery,, ive noticed my 6p draining quite fast... perhaps has something to do with the google apps trying to connect to the google services that are unavailable in mainland.. out of that.. the phone works amazingly

Ty for the response...
I now have one. Weird that with my WiFi (China mobile) on, the phone keeps telling me that the network is connected, but no internet... When clearly there is. I haven't really tried the 4g speeds much, but they were dead slow on my note 4.. Yet amazingly fast on my note 4 when abroad, so I figure that it's just a China speed thing. Battery ends awesome enough compared to note 4 too.

That a problem caused by our network censorship that blocks Google. You need to disable "Captive Portal" scanning or set the server to a different one to avoid it.
Try the command "settings put global captive_portal_server g.cn" in Terminal with Superuser privilege.
Been using mine as a daily driver for 3 days, but flashed CM on it, so battery life does not impress. Wonder how good it is on stock, though, because all these Google apps will drain battery if you don't disable them or hook up to a VPN.

Yes, I am not ready to root yet and I am resisting the almost overwhelming temptation to root and rom right now, as I want to see and feel the natural stock experience for a good couple of weeks so that I can compare.
I am finding the battery is excellent for my situation so far. I have no regrets in terms of moving toward this rather than LG's V10, Huawei's 8 mate, Xiaomi's future offerings, or the Samsung Note 5... So far.
The wifi no internet notification, doesn't seem to affect any access to the internet. So ... I'm not going to worry about it - just looks weird with the little exclamation mark next to the wifi symbol. My work's wifi is VPN connected and I have two ready and set up on my phone for use. Although I don't really use them much when I travel to and fro and rely on the LTE network - (although at least one will work if I need it). I found that the native messaging service on the phone didn't send or receive a couple of texts yesterday, so I installed a new messaging app (SMS messaging (ASOP) Sylvain Galand) so far it seems to have worked 100%, but I haven't fully tested it yet. PLenty of time for that.
Yep, I'll stay on stock till after Xmas and see how it goes.
ok - Intersting thin is - was playing around with the old 6P putting 8.1 on it. couldn't get rid of the cross and connectivity problem.
Used to get fixed by:
settings put global captive_portal_server g.cn
But for ANdroid 8.1 it seems it is this:
#!/usr/bin/env sh
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_fallback_url http://g.cn/generate_204
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_http_url http://www.google.cn/generate_204
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_https_url https://www.google.cn/generate_204
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_other_fallback_urls http://www.qualcomm.cn/generate_204

Thank you sir.
Doubtful anyone else will have the same difficulty as I would imagine no one is using the 6P in china these days. But he solve is here if it helps.
