Mine only half works on M. It works no problem when the screen is on, but only works when the screen is off if it's charging.

As far as I know, screen off doesn't work at all.

I'm wondering if there is some kind of mod or app or something that allows you to turn on the screen by touch. With the case I'm using the power button is quite hard to trigger.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app
This is available for the Galaxy Nexus. I use it and find it quite useful. As far as I know, there isn't a solution for the Nexus 7, yet.

I love touch wake on my SGS, when I get a good N7 I think that is the mod I will want most.

You could fasten a small magnet to your person and use it as your "smart cover".
I haz no sig
Awesome on/off ultimate works on the N7, you just tilt slightly to wake, since the GNex solution requires a module to be added to the kernel.
(both will use battery, the app I mentioned states 5% per day)
Ok thanks" I'll look around
Thanks for this. I can get the "on" option to work, but not the "off". Does it work for you?

Is it just me? Or is anyone else having problems with music controls on the new lock screen in 4.2. when I resume a song from play music in the lock screen the the camera gets mixed in with the lock screen and the volume goes to maximum for a second then returns to normal. Its done it a few times now.

I had this happen just a little bit ago at the gym. It almost seemed like it locked up. I was able to launch Google now and get to the main screen though. Hopefully they add an on/off button for the lock screen widgets, I won't ever use them so it would be nice to disable them.

Disable Lock Screen Camera and Widgets
Found an article by Droid Life about Lockscreen Policy, an app created by Chislon Chow.
Been using it for a couple days. It is free and seems to work perfectly fine. Did not even need root privilege. The effect is not "permanent" in that if you disable/freeze or uninstall it, the widgets come right back, and you'll have to reboot before they can be removed again.
Anyone had this one? Since 4.2, the screen momentarily goes black, with a similar transition to hitting the task manage soft key, but transiting to the left in landscape, then flicks back to normal use. Happens in apps...screws up some games, puts others into pause mode as if a task has been switched. Thought it might have had something to do with auto rotation going a bit bonkers, but not sure....
Not heard any reports...have looked through the forum, couldn't find anything.
Weird...it just did it then....but the keyboard stayed on screen, xda disappeared to the left...
Any thoughts and thanks in advance

Ok..just happened again while in portrait mode. Definitely saw it flick to landscape. Rotation is locked btw.

Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
It happened to me three times last night after update to 4.2 :crying:
Ok...so, while sitting in a tedious meeting, Nexus in landscape, propped up with its folding case the screened flipped upside down and stayed upside down. 3 times. My ipad using colleague giggled.
Any way to recalibrate the tilt sensor? Or any other suggestions?
It's not the end of the world but...there must be a patch solution or other? Before 4.1 I used the auto rotate app, I forget its correct name...
Thoughts?
Sent from my GT-I9100P using xda app-developers app
I used logcat to monitor the Nexus 7 until the random rotation happened. After looking at the log I realized that it was always the same process being activated and that process was nVision.
Since nVision always rotates into landscape mode I was suspicious that perhaps when it tried to update itself in the background it was changing the screen orientation. I disabled notifications and then uninstalled the app and the problem has completely gone away. I have had no random rotations at all in the last 24 hours.

Thanks very much. Ill give it a try and report back
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Okie doke.
For the record.... 48 hours and no random flips to landscape and back. I'd be willing to be a substantial amount of money this was the culprit. However, whether this is a 4.2 issue per se vs. Bad behavior in nVision is an open Question.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Ok. Disabling nvision notifications still flips out. Will uninstall later.
Thanks again

Uninstall it. I still think it checks in and screws your screen, whether it shows you the notification or not.

I want to ask if anybody has similar bugs to a non-rooted, locked, stock nexus 4 on 4.2.2 and would like to know on how to fix them. I have factory reset the phone and always seem to get the same results. I don't mind these little bugs, but they are making me want to root my phone.
1. While listening to Google music, I would try to unlock my phone and Google music screen widget would flicker and shake and make unlocking difficult I provided the picture on the attachment.
2. Another bug while still listening to Google music; it would dim more than normally it would in a shorter amount of time on lock screen.
3. Almost every time I open YouTube, the YouTube window animation flickers.
4. Battery drops 2-5% when the phone is rebooted.
5. Phone battery % drops after being fully charged and unplugged.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
4 and 5 are caused by a slightly wrong calibrated battery if you reset the calibration files (here is a tut somewhere) or just do only full cycles for a few weeks this shouldn't be a problem because it is just a displayed drop I think I'm rooted and don't listen much to Google music so no comment to 1 and 2.
3 isn't known to me.
Just a quick answer haha

Thank you, I'm going to look on how to properly calibrate the battery. These little bugs can get frustrating at times.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Don't know about 1 and 2.
3) The youtube app is a buggy piece of sh*t, so I wouldn't sweat it too much.
4) The battery percentage drop on rebooting has occured on every ROM I tried so far, so I don't really care. Well, maybe not 5%, but 1-2% is normal for me.
5) Happens to me occasionally, I don't really mind if it drops to 99% straight away, it's only correct. 100% would mean that your battery is perfectly fully charged. When you unplug it, some tiny (seriously) amount of power is being used due to the fact that your screen turns on, right?
Try cleaning the app data and cache for Play Music and Youtube (settings > apps) and see if it gives any result.
Thank you for helping. I forgot to mention another bug that is probably the worst. When receiving a phone call, I pick up the phone and the screen turns off. I try to turn the screen on and it doesn't respond. This bug has made me miss calls various times.

Mh well your on/off presses sometimes interfere with the proximity sensor on your phone this "issue" sometimes causes wild screen on/off during call because I click the button but the screen was already turning on because I no more held it next to my ear so it turns off again so I click again to turn on but hold the phone to my ear shortly to check whether the other person is still in call so proximity sensor reacts.... Repeat n-times. But that doesn't sound like your problem. Could you describe it more specific?

When receiving a phone call, I pick it up the phone and the screen turns off and doesn't respond to the power button. I have to tilt the phone until it turns on and until I get a chance to answer the call. Proximity sensor/s does sound to be the cause of this. Any way to fix this?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Phew I don't think so... But changing habits... I'm working on a solution for my random clicking but I think the only way to solve that is to give the phone more time to react before pressing power button because it'll turn screen on/off as you would like it to but it needs a short period of time for that

Hopefully Android 4.3 fixes some of these bugs. The Nexus 4 Lg adapter was garbage, I dropped it once and after that it stopped working.

They said to clear cache/data & uninstall updates. Then update.
It did not work. I told them & they said they will Look into fixing this issue in a update later on.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Yeah, uninstalling and updating apps doesn't work. I've been doing that since the longest and no fix. Factory resetting or even flashing stock doesn't seem to fix these bugs either. Hopefully later on they find a solution. I didn't mind these bugs at first, but after a while, it got frustrating.

1. While listening to Google music, I would try to unlock my phone and Google music screen widget would flicker and shake and make unlocking difficult I provided the picture on the attachment. Don't use the lockescreen and/or the music app. Google play music works fine on my end.
2. Another bug while still listening to Google music; it would dim more than normally it would in a shorter amount of time on lock screen.
Don't notice this because I always sleep the phone manually after choosing music.
3. Almost every time I open YouTube, the YouTube window animation flickers.
Never have experienced this.
4. Battery drops 2-5% when the phone is rebooted.
This can happen, yes. Stop rebooting so much.
5. Phone battery % drops after being fully charged and unplugged.
This happens about 95% of the time. Nothing to worry about.

Thanks for your reply. For the Google Music apk, I don't use any lock screen widget. When I listen to the music and try to unlock it, that's when it gets buggy. Either the widget shakes or the screen dims more than normally it would. I only reboot I once a day every morning in order to reduce lag and refresh the system.
I guess I don't know what you mean with the music app. What Rom are you on?
Sent from my Nexus 4
I'm on stock rom, unrooted and locked. I was on cyanognemod, unofficial miui, and decided to go back to stock. I have enjoyed stock until bugs started happening. When I listen to Google Play Music; there are times when I turn my phone on and try to unlock the screen, the Google Music widget shakes and makes it difficult to unlock.
Found another bug. Not annoying but its just there. When applying a stock wallpaper and you immediately scroll left or right, you get this result.

May be it's just the universe trolling you saying "one does not simply not root a nexus".
Yes most of the bugs you mentioned are present and they are fixed in most of the custom ROMs.
I am using Nexus 4... is anyone aware to Wake up phone from sleep mode other than pressing power button ??
I have seen video once on you tube however i am unable to find that vidio now
Try this, you need a custom kernel and root for this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.paranoid.touchcontrolfree

Currently incompatible with 4.3, however
I don't like the idea of the phone being in the pocket, and turning itself on because of pressure touches in the screen...
Also keeping the phone always 'listening' for touches will fore sure take a toll on the battery.
try this app "Gravity Screen - On / Off" , no root required
