No, since the n4 has an IPS display it would be a waste of battery.
I like Dynamic Notifications. I've been using it since it was launched and it doesn't effect the battery that much.
You can try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2641557 I use it without any issues on my N4.

I usually keep my phones on full brightness. I'll deal with the battery draining because I love how it looks with full brightness. Has anyone noticed the display on the n4 kind of adjusting sometimes. I have noticed sometimes it changes to a little darker or a little brighter while using the phone.
I also noticed when I am talking on the phone with the speaker on sometimes it shuts when opening an application or sometimes even without opening an app and switches to regular ear piece. Sometimes it will stay on speaker but go lower.
Anyone having these issues? Its not a deal breaker or anything I still love it. I know phones will always have their issues, I've had ever nexus and the g1. I just want to know if other people are having this issue.

My guess is glitch hardware. Lg is known for making inconsistent quality. Terrible QA. Just because its made in Korea doesn't means its better than in China.

I don't know how you can use this display on full brightness it's too damn bright! Strains my eyes. lol I tend to keep mine around the 25% mark
It's adaptive contrast, runs independent of your brightness settings and there's not an option to disable it. You probably notice it most when moving from a largely black screen to a white one.
I think I remember first hearing about it's use in a Galaxy S2 review, my TV does the same thing on its dynamic setting.

I didn't know this. Can you show me somewhere, where this is stated about the phone? It makes sense.

Hello guys.
I don't know if it is just me but I can't see a big difference between medium and max bright, you obviously can tell it changed a bit but it's not like other devices I've had before, although the difference between min and max is way bigger, just wanted to know if this is a normal standard thing or some kind of issue. Thanks.

Can confirm that. A bit weird that the other half of the slider is like doing nothing. Its like the volume slider on the galaxy nexus.. After the half, the music won't go noticeable louder... Weird... Maybe a 4.2 problem idk..

Oh, wasn't it like this in previous versions?
I got it a few days ago so I don't really know.

Got mine also for a few days...
But after knowing that 4.2 brought a lot of bad stuff I think maybe this too... Only a guy or girl that had it for a few months can help us

Hey guys,
am I the only one who's not entirely happy with the new camera in Android 4.3.
The first thing i noticed is that many of my photos seem to be a little more washed out than they used to be.
And the second thing: Whenever i take a photo sphere with my N4, the corresponding location is not saved to the picture. No matter if location is turned on/off in the photosphere settings.
Does anyone have an idea for fixing these issues? Or at least for the second one? Or have you noticed similar behavior?
Thanks in advance
I don't have those. For me the camera seems taking better pictures than 4.2.2 and flash seems stronger. But I think camera has become a bit more slow in starting.

I noticed the washed out pictures as well compared to 4.2.2. 4.3 has too many problems. I reverted it back to 4.2.2.

I noticed the wash pics too, 4.3 isn't a big jump, only the colors and touch drivers.

You check these washed out pics on other monitors? It's probably just the colour on your N4, not the camera.
^^ nope. Its not the screen colors. I used PA 4.3 version which has screen calibrated colors.

something I said offended you or unusual?
I trade pics with my wife. She has an HTC One X. Pics she takes that look good on her phone don't look as good once they are on my phone. Pics that I take that don't look so good on my phone look much better on her phone. Colors are more vibrant on her phone no matter which camera was used and colors on my N4 do look washed out no matter which camera used.

I had the same problem with the missing location. Just go to Google settings and enable location access for Apps under the location settings... After that the camera stores the location again..

Have you flashed any KitKat ROM? GEL alone can't clone KitKat features.

Yes, I'm on 4.4 stock. And I get the translucent bars on the home screen but not on the lock screen.
But as far as i can tell this is normal and you can't do anything about it aside from replacing the framework.
So this would be the only thing different software wise ,as I said in the opening post?

Yes your missing o, e, i, n and g. There must be a problem with your spellchecker. Try SwiftKey. Its much better than stock.

And you're missing an apostrophe and an "e" people in glass houses...
But to answer the OP's question, we're missing HDR+, low power music playback, and... yeah I'm struggling to think of any other software differences. Even the 2 differences I mentioned are hardware dependant. And to think I was considering "upgrading".

hardware difference = software difference....multiple features are exclusive, therefore there's a difference

I find the calibration is a tad bit better than JB. Can't confirm with proof though as it just looks better from a users perspective.
