I would love to see multi user on the nexus 4..I think it wouldn't be hard since it's already in 4.2... think it would make sense for doing different setups like different launcher, icon packs, theme etc..I wonder if it's just a line or lines of code to turn it on and/ or is any body up for the challenge!!?

My nex 7 has it. You are sure you can't make other users already?

Multi-user support is only available on tablets. Nokia has a patent on multi-user support on phones.
I am sure a build.prop edit can fix it.

That is more for switching ROMs ...not having different setups (launcher, icon packs etc)

Exactly.. doesn't mean we can't figure a way to get it on our phones
Hmm I don't think a build. Prop edit will do it but I'll check

Well its only for tablets, I think the reason for that being tablets are more family and sharing, whereas phones are a personal device. Why would you want to share your phone?

I don't see anything in build.prop specifically disabling multi-user mode. Looks like I was wrong.

Ah I see. I didn't know that. I thought it was a 4.2 thing.. You are right though. I have no need for it on my phone.

Would be nice to have multi-users for testing and demo purposes.

Bored, trolling or no way to imagine use cases when multi-users may be handy?
If I want to show something to a client on my Nexus 4 (or any other device) without providing access to my apps and data?
or
If I'm willing to give it to my 3-4 years offspring for a video or a game, without risking my contacts, notes, mails?

This is the only reason I would need it, but it is a good one. If my 5 year old wants to watch a movie or play a game I wouldn't have to worry about her screwing up my home screen or deleting apps like she has been known to do.
I believe Paranoid to be the answer. That's if you don't mind rooting.
Great example above and the most used I'm sure.

Because it's forcing something that's supposed to be up to the developers to enable it. If it's not enabled, it's probably for a reason.

+1, used it since ICS day one. I've also just asked this in the Franco thread, a forum mod was also advising against it. W h y???
Use the old Xda prem App. It loads forums faster and is way smoother. I'm still using version 1.1.2.

Let me guess, all you lagaholics are rooted/custom rom'd. Unrooted/stock/latest rev = xda smooth as iPhone and user (me) very happy.. almost scared to ota to key lime when the time comes.

Hi Devs,
anyone working on porting of ColorOS of Oppo N1, based on Android 4.2.2 to Nexus 4??
It has already parted to HTC One X, as it based on sense framework..
It looks very weighted and pretty..
Thanks..

Oppo color os is not based on sense, how ever the dev ported it to HTC one and added sense framework. I am interested on this and downloaded the factory image for porting to Nexus 4. i will update soon next week.
Hopes we will see color os on our nexus 4 soon. .

Ill be honest most will not work on a port of a 4.2.2 rom to a device that has 4.4 already. Also Sense ports never full work on devices that are not HTC.
Anyone? If so, how? I'm running CM10.2 and would love to get the Gear.
Probably not since I'm sure tuchwiz framework is required

Actually I know Samsung stated it could work just all the S stuff wouldent work which I assume is most of it. Second you have to be on 4.3 or above since some way the notifications work or something like that

I am getting my first nexus 4 soon and I was very excited until I read about the throttling issue it has (or I'm calling it that) i like to game on
Phones and that's why I was planning on fixing it. But if it passes 39c it down clocks everything? If I get a custom kernel and rom will it prevent this? Quadrant scores are really low.. I just hope it performs good. Oh yeah when I am gaming on my HTC Droid incredible 4G Lte if will get 55c cpu and 50-55c battery. And my phone never change clocks. Thanks for any help.

Well, with a custom kernel you can adjust throttling to your likes. My nexus performed better than my dads m7 in 3dmark

I personally got horrible benchmarks on the N5 Experience. I run stock with Faux kernel with delvik and bionic tweaks. Also the Google now launcher. I installed xPosed frameworks and GravityBox to get all the same features as the other rom but still have incredible performance. Just my experience.
