Hello developers, like subject i want to transformer my old Nexus 4 in a PDA.
Shortly i wanna remove all the programms and tools to make my nexus capable of connecting internet by wifi or data to check email, browsing ecc. For example I don't need the contacs or telephone app and also other things.

I've seen a lot of apps that will send your phone text to a tablet but it seems like none are compatible yet anyone know of any that are yet ?

Tablet talk works great.

I use "What's App." Works great across different platforms (and especially for international texts - no fees!). It's like an instant messaging service, but it piggybacks your cell network if you're tethering.
EDIT: sorry, I forgot to mention that it only works if the other person has What's App, too.
I use Google voice, only thing that you don't get are the picture msgs.

Try HeyWire Link ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/...GwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5tZWRpYWZyaWVuZHMuY2hpbWUiXQ.. ) in google play it is free and it works. Takes a few min's to setup and a little thinking because of the way the help files are, well there english is not to good lets put it that way. But it works very well. Hope that helps
Yes, I also use the fantastic product: 'Tablet Talk'

I just use Google Voice which is linked to my Sprint account. Only downside is that you can't receive MMS.
+1 for tablet talk, it works great I just hope for more theme/customizing options in the future.

Whoah, great thread. Thanks for sharing guys. Think I'll try Tablet Talk on my Nexus 7!
Another +1 for Tablet Talk. It gets the job done.

im slow, can i use my existing phone number?
Yes. Tablet talk syncs to your phone via WiFi or Bluetooth..so technically its using your cell service as an "extension" to your cell phone. I love it.

Google Voice, however like someone mentioned they haven't incorporated MMS into it yet.
Will try Tablet Talk tho.
I've used Tablet Talk for a couple weeks now and it hasn't really worked for me. I'm thinking that it's probably because of my phone. Does anyone else have a Galaxy S II/N7 pairing that works?

Did you download the update? It has some sort of fixes in it.

Be a bit more specific For example..are you using a 3rd party SMS program such as GoSms or Handicent? If so..read the FAQ for tablet talk.
Whats the issue that you're having?
Seriously amazed by tablet talk, my galaxy s3,suffered the sudden death syndrome, so was in a fickle, bought a cheap Huawei blaze and it's tethered to my phone and having to use tablet talk for texts and calls is amazing. Those using tablet talk for Blue tooth calling how clear is it.

If I'm not mistaken, In tablet talk you have to be connected by blue tooth or on the SAME wifi. An app called CLOUD SMS doesn't require that you be on the same wifi, I can receive text on my n7 even if I'm connected to wifi and my phone is not.

Hi
I have been searching Google but with no real success.
The problem I'm having is that I don't get a phone signal in my house, and I am starting my own business which will involve phoning a fair few mobile numbers.
Can anyone recommend a good SIP provider in the UK that has a package including mobile calls that integrates well with the Nexus 4?
Any help would be massively appreciated
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Have you searched the general thread section? I don't use SIP but I know it's discussed in the general section for this phone.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, I looked there too but all results seem to discuss SIP/VOIP in US. If anybody can help with UK setup, especially with bundled mobile minutes it would be a great help!
Awesome anti theft app. Well worth the asking price, but it is free for the next 30 hours:

It's a must have app. Well worth the money when not on sale!

What does this do that the Google built in device manager doesn't? I thought you could track, wipe, and sound an alert with what's built in to android. Why do I want this (sincerely asking)?

Read up on the features it can do so much more like taking screenshots or activating back or front camera if someone has stolen ur phone you can even activate wifi or location through sms so IMHO far better than android device manager

android manager only works when your account is in use. Consider your phone is stolen and you used a wipe. Now your account information is removed and Google device manager is now useless.
There are lot of differences. I use avast anti theft rooted. My phone was stolen and I was able to track it, control it and eventually got it back after 4 weeks.
What you can do with this app which adm can't
Use sms commands to control your phone
Block Uninstall manager and/or settings page remotely
Whenever a new sim card is inserted you will be notified. This is most useful feature.
Force data and gps connection remotely. The other user can't turn it off.
In my personal opinion, you can't prevent theft.. If you lock down your phone (what you can do in adm) after that, the thief knows there is something wrong, and he may flash new firmware. But these app allow to silently track the phone which gives more power to locate the phone.

Definitely this is a very very useful app, hope the thief doesn't know the loop holes.

Explain, man? This is huge.
As per title really. Completley stock phone using a Tmobile uk sim.
Sim creates valid hotspots on other phones and other sim cards also are unable to share internet. Hotspot is created but any connecting devices report no internet.
The phone is a grey import, apparently from korea if that helps.
Everything else is working fine.
Really need to get it sorted as i use a tablet and qpair. Ive tried both qpair and standalone hotspots to no avail.
Any ideas? Ideally i dont want to root, or need to unroot after as i use apps like sky go that wont run if rooted.
Thanks
Anyone? Any suggestions?

Sounds like a hardware fault to me. Have you tried s factory reset? Other than that not sure there is much you can try.

Umm i sometimes have the same problem with my G2. If I don't have any security (as in no password and encryption) there's never a problem.

Hey guys,
I'm posting this on behalf of a non-XDA friend who recently switched from iPhone to Samsung. Since he made the switch, he has gone from 1.5GB of data use to roughly 15GB of data use without changing his habits. He's called Verizon (to no avail. Shocking, I know.) He's turned off unused apps. He's changed settings. Nothing seems to work, and I'm out of ideas. Any input you guys might have would be greatly appreciated!!

That's crazy I don't even use 4 most months. Most I think was 7 and that's because of downloading some large files for work. I use Pandora, Facebook, XDA and YouTube everyday with no issues. Does he use google+ at all maybe he has it syncing photos over 4G? Why not just turn on the data restricter in settings so once he gets to a certain amount it cuts him off. He has to be unknowingly doing something maybe a 3rd party messenger app that uses data instead of mobile network

That's a nucking futs amount of data. Does he torrent from his phone? I've accidentally left something seeding before.
Tethering which someone else is using?
Any apps from outside the store?
Iffn it was me I would consider a reset and then only add a few apps back at a time as he needs them while watching data usage.
