Nexus 4 spoiled me - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just go a nexus 7 yeah I know a little late but I got it as a gift so is it just me or is it a little slower than the nexus 4 I'm currently running paranoid android because I love the tablet ui. Any ideas? I already put trinity kernel on it, I'm thinking its pa slowing it down but I'm not sure.

Purity Rom is faster. Pa was not working well for me too.
Try that Rom.

just got me a nexus 4 recently, Ive had my n7 since December. yep, N7 is slower but it's not a fair comparison considering their hardware. +1 for purity, doesn't have a ton of features but is very smooth and doesn't bog down after a while

+1 For Purity too.
But if you still feel that it's not fast enough try m-kernel with a little overclocking should be really close to the N4 in term of responsive.

So I have steered away from pa and all things are fast and responsive going to try the m-kernel next thanks everybody.

Just bought 2nd N7

after doing what I would now consider (dumb as ****) OTA updates....what would you all recommend i do as far as unlock...root...and rom? or if i stay stock no updates.......what would you do?
4.2 is as fast as any of the 4.1.2 custom roms / kernels that i have run in the past and i have tried most of them, i am currently running stock rom rooted with lean kernel which is a nice combination until some custom roms come out

It all depends on what you plan to do with it. Personally, I require root because of otg+host mode charging, among many other reasons. Each person is different in what they want and or require. You could use the first to experiment with different things and leave the new one stock till you find a configuration you like. Good luck!

Would recommend just keeping stock until more 4.2 Roms become available, or flash the rooted 4.2 stock image that was released.
Paranoid android is releasing 4.2 tomorrow :thumbup:
What are those things on XDA no one listens to? Oh yea, rules. What the hell does this have to do with android development? If you have questions post in the Q&A.

Where did you hear this, I looked through the last 5-6 pages of the paranoid android thread. I am very excited if it's true, but how because it is based on CyanogenMod and 10.1 is not released yet...

Try minco or rasbean. Doesn't get more stable / smooth than that.
Rasbean Jelly, sir.

How's the customization? Can i use CM10 themes with Rasbean?

Already try panandroid too... Need more customization! I'm all about the looks and make it personal! Lol!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
You asked most stable, not most customizable. Disregard minco & rasbean then. None or minimal customization there, just stable & fast.
I would recommend CFX then.

Carbon vs liquidsmooth

Planning on flashing one of these ROMs (or another if you can suggest a better one) but not sure which to go for. Now I know there is no best ROM but if you can explain the differences then at east I can make an educated decision (as I know these 2 are branches from what were once 1 group of developers.) I tend to prioritise battery, customisation and smoothness and must also be stable for daily use.
Thanks in advance

You really couldn't separate them on performance, stability & battery. I think carbon has more frequently updated nightlies. Features? Both packed.
So I can't really loose then?

Comparing latest PA with 4.3 stock

Has any one compared latest PA 4.3 with OTA stock 4.3?
Thanks in advance
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
There are a couple of bugs which are stated in the OP of PA and I'm getting a touch of stuttering here and there but the features of PA make up for that. If you're concerned about stability then just wait a week or so before flashing.
Sent from my Nexus 4
Well.
Im using PA since i bought N4. Was using stock for 1 month and since then, im on PA.
Ill give it a try i think.
Thanks for your reply.
If anyone else has some experience also, please respond here.
Thanks in advance

Compared about what?. Battery life, performance, tweaks, customizations...?.
Compared about those things youve just mentioned, and about stability in total..

Best ROM for the nexus 4?

I just bought nexus device. My old phone was s3 mini and since I used cyanogenmod whole time I'm asking which ROM based on stock Android is best for it.
Guessing that we have official releases of all Roms because this phone is just awesome it will be harder to choose

Actually Nexus 4 doesn't have more ROMs than Galaxy S3 for instance. Most developers moved to Nexus 5
Haven't tried all of them, but they are all mostly similar in terms of performance, it's the customization that is different in each ROM.
I'm on PA 4+ because it's the closest thing in terms of Stability to STOCK rom
There is no "best" ROM out there. All have there ups and downs. Threads like these are no allowed on XDA
