[Q] Stock Kernel version? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just returned on stock kernel from franco on my nexus4 because of some issues, but I'm not sure if that's the latest version out there. Can someone check if this is the newest version of stock kernel: 3.4.0-perf-gf43c3d9 form 17th June 2013. And sorry for my English.. Thanks!

I think its lastest version

N7 build numbers

Hi all I have x2 Nexus 7 32gb versions.
The old one came with build JRO03D and the new one came with JRN84D.
When I updated the new N7 to Jellybean 4.1.1, the build became JRO03D, question is, which is the newer build number ? I thought it was the JRN84D as it was the new Nexus batch that just got delivered.
cheers
JR003D is 4.1.1 where as other is just 4.1

OTA update with 3rd party kernels

I am currently running FraNco.Kernel R38 and was wondering how I go about updating to the newest version of android when it releases. Would I do an ota update and be fine or would I have to flash the whole ROM and lose all my stuff?
Would I be able to use cwm or twrp and restore just the data?
Still new to android and was having a hard time finding this with search.
Thank you so much!
Adam
Edit: running stock Jellybean 4.2.1

[Q] Best way to get LTE on Nexus 4

I recently switched from a Galaxy s3 to a Nexus 4 and would like to get LTE on it as Rogers does not support DC-HSPA 42Mbps. So far from all the threads i have read say there are a few ways to do this:
1) downgrade to 4.2.1
2) Flash 4.2.2 with the .33 Radio.
3) custom Rom 4.2.2 with .33 Radio.
From what i gathered people who flashed .33 radio (or older) on 4.2.2 have been having a range of problems. And apparently 4.2.1 has a lot of bugs in general?
It would be great if someone who has already done this could post about their experience with each of the options as i'm tired of reading pages and pages of posts about how the Nexus 4 is not suppose to have LTE and to be happy with the hspda etc.
Thanks
I am also interested in this any advice would be appreciated

If you happen to lose the ability to make or receive calls on your Nexus 4 on the .33 baseband then you must flash the latest .48 baseband to make calls.
I am going to flash a 4.1.2 ROM when I get home I had a nexus 4 when they first came out running lte went to a note 2 and now back again to nexus 4;I am running the latest paranoid android 3.1 and faux kernel but the internet is painfully slow without lte I really can't take it any more will try 4.1.2 then 4.2.2 with the different radios

I am almost positive that there is no backwards compatibility with Android. Meaning, that since the Nexus 4 debuted with 4.2, you couldn't run a 4.1.2 ROM, and that's why they don't exist (to my knowledge).
to anyone interested i flashed a .33 radio from paranoidandroid 3.1 / latest faux kernel and i now have lte back - now everything is good !!

golfinggino,
Could you be a little more clear/descriptive? What ROM/kernel are you running now? Are you still running 4.2.2 stock or something else? Did you follow instructions that you found somewhere?
Thanks in advance,
JT

Yes was running the latest paranoid android and faux kernel wasn't happy with it and just flashed the latest carbon ROM ( much better) along with today's faux update, lte is working on the this ROM as well
i made and received some phone calls and didn't notice anything unusual, i will test making and receiving some calls tomorrow
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app
tested it today and the call quality seems to be better on the .33 radio then the latest one ? could just be me ? anyway ran on lte all day was connected to wifi for bit and still managed 5 hours screen on time - just picked up a nexus 10 today and in the process of loading up carbon rom on it - that should really fly !
hey again guys thanks for all the responses and sorry about the late response.

I think im going to try the Carbon rom too. Did you have to flash the older radio with it or no? sorry im new to flashing roms and radios and such.
Thanks again guys will post again with my results (hopefully wont mess up my phone in the process XD)
yes i flashed the older radio - the one i used was cwm-radio-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.1.1700.33.zip
i was running paranoidandroid 3.1 but think the carbonrom is smoother
Only problem is that at least on cyanogenmod using any radio other than version 48 causes auto focus in the camera to not work.

What the heck....that is so irrelevant. There is absolutely no relation between the camera application and the baseband. It has to be a CM 10.1 rom issue.

Test it for yourself. Many have had problems with autofocus on .33 radio. Updating baseband fixes that issue. And if updating the baseband fixes it, by definition it's not a cm issue.

Kit Kat (Android 4.4) release soon!

Just a quick Hi to all the Nexus 7 2013 owners! I just acquired mine a couple days ago! Replaced my HTC Flyer (BB WiFi model). Been eyeing this beauty for a while. Rooted and installed Official CM 10.2 ROM.....however, I flashed back to stock root. Here's why:
The rumors point to a drop date for Kit Kat (Android 4.4) of October 28th
Any of you gonna give it a shot?

Just update ! It's all.
Guys,
Am on the latest version of PA rom on my Nexus 5, i.e pa_hammerhead-4.4-BETA1-20140603.
I want to now upgrade to the latest RC1, i.e pa_hammerhead-4.4-RC1-20140611.
How exactly do I do that? Just flash in recovery and move from PA 4.4.2 to PA 4.4.3? Or do i need to first update device 4.4.3 and then PA 4.4.3?
Or is a clean wipe and install enough?
Specifically, how do we update the the radio and boot loader before flashing the ROM. Are the updated 4.4,3 radios already included? Meaning I can just download the ROM via the PA OTA and flash? I am also on 4.4.2 last Beta mentioned above.

I am still on the D820 November 2013 radio. Should we update to the 4.4.3 radio dated May 7? What happens if we dont update the radio.

It doesn't matter. It's a choice of if you want to update or not.

So if I have the latest 4.4.2 PA ROM, I can just skip flashing the radios and bootloader and directly update to the 4.4.3 PA ROM?

I just did that and everything seems to work.
I updated my nexus 4 from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3 and I have some problems with it. WIFI, notifications, home button doesn't work. Anyone have solutions for it? I don't want to wipe data.

So Im forced to do it.. It doesn't work because franco kernel don't have support for 4.4.3 or what?

You need a 4.4.3 kernel.
Before reporting bugs you should always try the rom as it ships. You should not report things when you have modified them with kernels or mods, xposed, etc
