hi all. i have two concerns. is there a way to make the phone come back to normal faster after moving the phone away from your ear when you end the call or while in call? if that makes sense.
another concern is while i'm on the call, without moving the phone away from my ear or anything, the phone will just dial a random string of numbers as if i'm pressing them accidentally. in each instance the dialpad is open while i'm in call, but i'm not moving the phone away from the ear so the phone should be staying dim. now, i'm not sure what exactly happens, but i'll be on the phone and then i'll hear just a bunch of tones as if i'm pressing the numbers on the dialpad and the other party would be all WTF. and then i take the phone away from my ear and look at it and there's like a string of random numbers pressed. i use a Dialer One app for my dialer. never used to happen before. i'm on 4.3 right now, rooted.
thank you.

These two things are directly connected. There should be a line in the build prop that controls the delay. But the reasons that you're face dialing is two fold. One, because the proximity sensor is in a weird place in the left corner of the phone and two, because the delay is slightly too short. So if the corner of the phone is at an angle to your face, it pops on real quick. Making the delay smaller will make your face dialing much worse.

Thank you for that info. Although I'm pretty sure that I keep the phone in constant contact with my ear, I'll pay more attention to how I hold it to see if that's the issue why I face dial. As for the delay, I think it's too long for my liking. If there's a way I could change that I'd be grateful for that information. Thanks.
Have you checked your proximity sensor to see if it is registering properly? Use one of the sensor test apps.

Forgive me for a dumb question, but what is a build prop? So using xposed framework wouldn't work either?

A build prop is a document that holds a lot of your phones technical documentation. Like when you see a signature on here and it tells you the type of phone. That info was grabbed by tapatalk from the build prop. And if it had an option to do so, you should try it.

Every now and then, when opening an app or using the system buttons at the bottom, a very short "click" noise comes from the speaker. I have my N4 on silent/vibrate all the time and it is not an operating system noise that's meant to be there because its random. The best way to describe it is that it seems like the phone is "accidentally" starting to play a sound then stopping because its realised its in silent mode.
Anyone else getting this? Views on this problem?
(It happened again as I was typing this, so it happens through the the keyboard key presses as well)

Maybe you have to turn down the media volume.
I don't have a nexus 4, but I do get that random click noise on my incredible s as well, and from many different roms. I am not sure what it is, though.
Key press noise in settings turn it off may stop it the Gnex had this issue and still does

I get that click noise occasionally on my HTC HD2.
Running PACMAN 4.1.2 Jellybean at the moment.
I had this issue as well. I just turned off touch sounds and all is well.
I should note that I have keyboard sounds enabled and I do not experience the random clicking noise.
It seems to be isolated to the enabling of touch sounds, whether on vibrate or any audible volume.

I have the autofocus rattle issue as well. But I rarely if ever would shake my phone like that.
At this point I am just grateful that I got my phone, let alone got my phone earlier than projected. There are a lot of people that would love to hear the rattling of the autofocus on their N4.

Power Management
Ok... I think this is correct,
The audio chip like most other IC's are entering power saving mode milliseconds after you hear any audio so the small click is the powering up and down of the audio hardware... Many phones do this and many people don't notice it.
It's quite normal but if you have very good hearing it might bother some more then others.

It seems like a touch sound issue.
Make sure you've got touch sounds turned off by going:
Settings > Sound > Touch Sounds (disable the checkbox)
Has anyone noticed that the screen on this phone is way too sensitive? Mine goes as far as to register a touch when I hold my finger a few millimeters away. This results in accidental double presses and is very frustrating especially when typing. I even made sure the high sensitivity setting was off.
When in Camera mode, it even snaps photos by itself without my finger anywhere near the shutter button.
Any tips?

As stated in OP I had made sure that the hi sensitivity option is off as well as any other convenience features.
As for the camera, I have been in windy conditions when this was occurring, so maybe it was thinking I was giving voice commands. But I had all of that turned off as well, so I'm not sure what the deal is.
I will probably revert to factory settings again before returning the phone to make sure it's not a software issue.
I think that Samsung went a little overboard with the touchscreen on this phone. I do not like the fact that everything can be used to touch the screen. What I actually liked about my iPhone 4s was that it was picky about only recognizing fingertip touches.
Great phone overall but this issue sadly ruins it for me. I do not want to go back to iOS so I think HTC One is the only other strong competitor.

Occasional home button response delay
Sent from my Galaxy S4
Your definition of Lag is definitely different than my definition. However, the "home" button has a short pause because it is designed that way. It is waiting (just a fraction of a second) to see if you are going to use it for it's double tap option or not. Disable this feature (you can search for how) and that very little delay should go away.

You did a 10 minute video for that???? I believe when you say you have OCD. I suggest you to seek professional help, and not from Samsung support
I agree there's nothing wrong with your phone.. But they're might be something wrong with you if a .01 millisecond delay bothers you to the point of making a 10 minute video and rambling on and on about it. I would try and get laid if I were you and stop worrying about the phones home button.. Not that big of a deal

You should all kinds of weirdness with your launcher - how about going back to stock 100% first. But from what I see things are fine. Maybe the mechanical home button is slower then the touchscreen. You could always return it for an iPhone.

Limiting the process to four will negatively impact your performance.
More ram usage does not mean more battery usage, in fact it should usually save battery because the applications are already loaded in ram when you go to use them. If you are constantly killing them you'll have to reload from nand flash and back into ram.
Also you should probably try to make shorter videos
Do you have any idea why when I have maybe 5 apps in my recent list my home button response has a slight delay but then if I clear all recent the home button response is basically instant?
Sent from my Galaxy S4
I actually went to at&t yesterday to compare mine to the display models and the home button response was exactly the same, until I started loading multiple apps then mine was a tad bit slower. You guys might think this is ridiculous but I'm just trying to make sure that I don't have a defective device. I have like 6 more days to return it to Verizon if i feel I do.

Yep, it's pretty normal.
I assume with it being a new feature it's not properly optimized properly if thats right word for it.
If LG get their ass into gear we may see a fix for it. And I mean IF.
No, but i have noticed a trick with it. If you put your hand over the top area of the screen, and then try to knock on. It will not work no matter what until you move your hand. I believe it is a sensor.

tapping at the top of the screen where the status/notification bar would be works 100% of the time. at least for me.
I knock 3x. Works all the time
Thanks for the double at the top of the screen hint - works great now
What's worse is accidentally switching on the screen by simply handling the phone and it recognizing your "handling" as knock ons.
Yes, the proximity sensor will keep it from working. Since i have been more aware of this it works much better. Even if i have the phone in landscape and have my thumb on the slightest edge of the screen it will not work. U dont have to be over it. Just close will keep it from working.

You can hear this sound when you shake the phone in many different smartphones (iPhone included). I am not sure about it but I have read many forums over the years saying that it is not a flaw at all and it has something to do with the camera lens.
My advice is that if your phone is ok don't pay attention to it.

I had read as I remember exactly the opposite of your fear about it. They manufacture it loose just to give the camera space to perform in order not to malfunction.
Put your phone near your ear and open the camera app. You will hear a soft click in the camera area [emoji6]
In other words there is no way camera will break if you shake it even intentionally.
