Anyone find a fix for the audio issue yet? If so please share. If not, I'm sure a fix will be out soon?
The only thing missing for me while on 4.3 are those awesome LTE speeds that I honestly can't live without anymore (especially upload, upload speeds on hspa are garbage).
Thanks!
I understand there is a new radio with 4.3. What version is showing up on your phone? Does anyone have a pointer to release notes that show you details of what has been changed in 4.3, particularly with the radio?

OP wants to use <.33 for LTE. Radios newer than .33 has LTE disabled.
So thats why he doesn't want to use .84 (that comes with 4.3)
There is no fusion fix yet.

I know that......I guess I kinda hijacked the thread for a somewhat unrelated question; my bad. Anyway, thanks for the answer. Hopefully I can now get more than 1Mbps download data speed on my phone.

does in-call audio work fine with H and H+ on the newer radios?
.27 or .33 is needed for LTE however, the .84 radio hasn't been out long enough to determine if LTE can somehow be enabled. Time will tell, Google has surprised us with today and how it's turning out.
For now, stick with what is known to work...

It doesn't have to be out long enough. If the radio has LTE disabled, its disabled. You can't workaround to enable LTE on a radio that is compiled with it disabled. Its a closed source radio just like all of them.
With 4.2.2, using the old radio with an audio fix allowed for us to keep the LTE active. Does this still work work 4.3?

For the last few days I was running 4.2.2 with the old .33 radio and that screwed up my phone. I lost the basic feature to make calls. I could dial but I could not hear it ringing. When the other person would puck up the phone, I didn't hear anything and I couldn't even talk through the mic. I thought my mic was broken but it was the freaking baseband. After I flashed baseband.48, it fixed the problem!

When I went to 4.2.2 and then flashed my radio down, I lost the ability to hear phone calls, or them hear me. As soon as I went back to .48 (whatever the stock newest one is), it worked fine again. I also had a lot of signal drops with both .33 and I think it was .24? More than usual that is : \

I've also had no issues for using .33 Radio on 4.2.2
I've had multiple phone calls with no issues.
Tested GPS in the wild (while in car) and no issues.
Data works fine in the wild (when not connected to Wifi)
Does the flash method make a difference? Flashing via TWRP vs. Flashing using fastboot command?
I used fastboot myself to copy the radio.img over.
Updated to 4.2.2 and realized I had lost access to LTE with the new radio. I switched back to .33 and haven't had any issues.

Hi guys, I just bought my nexus 4. I'm really hesitant in updating because I also own a nexus 7 and when I updated that, my tablet was just flawed from left to right so I ended up downgrading it back to 4.1.2. Also, I hear that there is a way to enable LTE, but that with the new update the LTE function goes away? I would really appreciate to hear you guys' opinions. Thanks!

Even if you do update to the latest you can still flash a different radio which will give you the option to use lte.
Oh ok just wanted to make sure that I wouldn't lose the LTE option. Does the new update have any flaws? Or are u happy with the new update and what are the differences between 4.2.1 and 4.2.2?

I think a lot of us are on the 4.2.2 update. Those who didn't update are of course on 4.2.1 because they want their LTE. I would like to a say a majority of the members are on 4.2.2.
Some folks are still having Bluetooth and WiFi issues. Problems like the difficulty of connecting to their device and the same for WiFi. This is plaguing some users but not all. Just a small percentage. On my end everything is working fine. It's just weird to hear others are having these problems. I never have any issues with my devices. If you want to update to 4.2.2, I strongly suggest you do a super clean install/update.

4.2.2 has been better for battery life, at least for me. You should update it. And for LTE you can flash old radio, but might not work with the latest versions of certain ROMs, so do your research on that. I believe you can just do a nandroid for 4.2.1 (not 100% on this)

Yeah thanks for the advice, and your right about the battery life because I feel that considering that the nexus 4 has a 2100mah battery the battery doesn't last long enough. If I can do a nandroid backup then it would be awesome. I'm pretty new to the nexus 4 scene, so I appreciate everyone's help thus far.

http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-4/occam/
It's the third one down the list on the "images". Use 7zip to unpack the files and flash away!
EDIT: There is the option to have 4.2.2 with the 33 baseband to retain the LTE, however that has caused problems for people so the only official way to make it work with LTE is to flash 4.2.1 with the 33 base.

Well holy hell, I was using Carbon 4.3.1 with the stock radio and with Franco 193 and only getting around 1mb download speed for some reason.
IN THE SAME LOCATION
I switched to Carbon 1.8 which is 4.2.2, with Franco 165, and a hybrid kernel (with LTE enabler, but switched APN from LTE to GSM) and I was getting 15mb down, for some reason same speed with LTE only and GSM only.
Not sure why that is, I'm in Kansas City, which does have LTE for Tmo, but whatever, I think this proves my point.
Well if you're speed was low on LTE then you just didn't get good LTE signal, that's the problem, you just had to disable LTE. When you flash a rom, it doesn't flash a baseband so you are using the same baseband, just without LTE enabled. Doesn't have anything to do with OS versions (you would think if this was an issue it would have been an uproar over the internet.)

There were a lot of Nexus 4 owners complaining of slower data speeds after the OTA to 4.3, just google "Nexus 4 data speeds 4.3".
Also when I was on 4.3 it was all stock, there isn't an LTE fix for 4.3 I don't think. So yea, I was updated with the newest baseband (radio) and it was just really slow for the past week. In my specific case, the baseband/OS version does have something to do with it.
If I can go from 4.3 at 1mb/sec to 4.2.2 at 15mb/sec in the matter of a few minutes by flashing a few things, then I'd say there was a problem.
I had the opposite experience. Going from 4.2.2 to 4.3, my data speeds went from never topping 1 Mbps to between 3 - 7 Mbps on the stock radio. I also still get the better speeds with any of the hybrid radios I tried on 4.3.

itll work on the n4 only if its band 4 lte, and no other frequency for lte. and its not about flashing a rom, its about flashing a hybrid radi, having the right apn, and changing the phine info to lte/gsm. there are threads that explain how to do it.
Yes I live in London.....but since updating to the latest 4.3 I can no longer select 4g LTE in the service menu. How would I find out if three is using the correct band !????

it goes back because you need to use either the .27 hybrid radio or the .33 hybrid radio. google disabled lte for 4.3, and you cant enable lte in the settings unless you are using one of the hybrid radios.

nice rationalization, but not true. the chip works great, everything works. and since switching over to lte permanently, ive been seeing 6-7 hours screen on time regularly. imagine this, when you download things it takes time for it to finish downloading, especially large files. the slower data speed, the longer it takes. the longer it takes, the more battery is wasted. on lte, i average about 30mbps download speed, so downloads finish in seconds. so less battery is wasted. i download 2gb games from the play store in about 13-18 minutes. the newer lte chips are much better on battety than the old days, better than hspa+, hspa, 3g, and 2g.
How can that be possible ? The LTE chip in the nexus 4 has no antenna or amplifier :/ hmm I'm baffled

Battery life is the same with LTE enabled. My N4 has it enabled my wife hasn't let me to it to her's yet and our battery life is the same, but my data is much faster than her's. I get LTE signal with my N4 in the same places as I do with my Galaxy Tab 2. So I would say it works perfectly fine. Yes I am on T-mobile in case anyone was wondering.
3 UK is going to use LTE band 3 and 20 only, so the nexus 4 will not support it (unless Google is going to release a Nexus 4 LTe version, which is pointless because you should get the Nexus 5 anyway.)
