The image no, we could see Marshmallow working but it would be from aosp. Modified system images from the nexus 5 never got very far (someone tried this for the android L previews back in the day, they got it booting after a ton of issues but it was never actually released or really usable.)

Isn't the nexus 5 almost the exact same specs as lg g2? Besides barometer and partition layout?

Not at all.
SoC and ram may be the same but the similarities end about there.

Hmmmmm........thanks for the reply

There's an app that provides such functionality, but I can't think of its name.

N7 isn't in his list of supported models. Probably a very high risk of something going bonkers. Some braver soul then me can be the guinea pig.
EDIT: I have had great luck with the app on my old G2 though.

Unlock play store for nexus 7?

I've searched google and it keeps taking me to market enabler which is only for gsm. I'm trying to get a sprint specific app. I've tried the spring codes, don't work. Is there another way of doing this?

Yea tried that.. like I said. That's only for gsm carriers does not work for sprint. I tried several custom codes and none of them work. The app is an NBA app only available through sprint. My friend has it for his phone but wants it for his tablet

It isn't possible to side load it via Titanium Backup? Or is the tablet version different from the phone version?

Unless its an app that updates all the time side loading isn't a bad way to do it. In your case that seems like the least headache solution for now.

My wife has a LG Optimus 4X HD P880
Hardware wise its very similar..
But also has better battery life than my Nexus 4
Physical touch sensitive area/buttons at the bottom (compared to soft buttons inside the screen in Nexus 4 which I dont like anymore)
and expandable storage.
Get the optimus g, it has lte and expandable storage. You can also convert it to a nexus 4 from what I've heard, as it has the same exact internals...

Nexus 10 is not a phone and it doesn't have expandable storage.
The HTC First allows you to turn off Facebook Home, leaving you with unskinned Android.
I'm pretty sure it's got external storage?

[Q] Advanced Camera Options

On my nexus 4 I have the attached options.
On my girlfriend's nexus 4 she just has three options: scene options, store location and picture size.
I cannot figure out what I did on my phone so I could do the same on my girlfriends nexus 4. Any ideas?
thanks.
I have the latest aokp nightly, franco m3. She also has those flashed too.
What android version exactly?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4
All I managed to do is press and hold both of the volume keys and then let go to burst shoot 2 pictures since any of the volume keys are triggers.
What have you done before discovering this?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4
It's 4.2.2.
I upgraded aokp but then again I did on my gfs phone and didn't see it on here

GAPPS unofficial flashes and AOKP. But i do them on both devices.
I use a certain unofficial gapps package by BANKs of the theme section but I have flashed on both phones. Only mine has it. I also backed up the camera and data with titanium. This leads me to believe i'm missing some setting or something.
Just wanted to add. I tried to backup the camera app and data from my nexus 4 with titanium and then restore it on the other nexus 4 to no avail. Does anyone know what else I would need to backup and restore to transfer over the camera settings in the main post?
thanks.

Did you try backing up Gallery to see if it works?, Gallery has a linked activity which is camera.

Were both phones bought together? or one is newer and one is older? I saw same thing when I installed same gapps file on s2 and it came with tonnes option in camera app but nothing on my nexus 4 app. I think older nexus 4's camera hardware doesn't support those software features may be?

I should be supported since the SGS3 does support it while the Nexus 4 is newer hardware and software wise.

I have a white nexus 4 and hers is black. She bought hers a week after I did actually.
I also backed up gallery data and restored on hers and that didn't work either. Would suck if it's a hardware thing.

stock camera has those 3 options. custom roms like slimbean have modified cameras that have more options like ISO among other options.
That's the cyanogenmod camera (not focal). I'm a big fan of that one. It takes pictures much quicker than the stock camera. The only issue though is that flash doesn't work unless you manually tap to focus before taking the picture.
Oh thank you. Do you, or anyone, have the app package? I assume since its working on my aokp setup, that it's possible. Or what file to transfer over from my phone to my girlfriend's? Like I said, I tried the gallery and camera apps already.
I will say that I did cyanogen mod at one point but have factory set numerous times since then.

[Q]Porting of NexSense 6.0 for nexus 5

hi to everybody , i found this on the nexus 5 forum :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/port-sense-6-0-m8-dev-t2703397?__utma=248941774.573565283.1393783423.1397553098.1397580170.195&__utmb=248941774.2.10.1397580170&__utmc=248941774&__utmx=-&__utmz=248941774.1396619636.153.6.utmcsr=google|utmccn=(organic)|utmcmd=organic|utmctr=(not%20provided)&__utmv=-&__utmk=231964828
i only want to say this and bring it to your eyes , i think that a port of the sense 6 for the nexus 4 will be great
The Dev from that already said it isn't possible on the nexus 4

why?
Needs high knwoledge about kernel,binaries,etc..

It is close to impossible to port Sense to Nexus 4. Because HTC devices use different screen resolution than nexus 4. One should resize them for the Resolution of Nexus 4. Also It needs many Kernel tweaking and hacking. Availability of Binaries is a downfall.

Different chip sets.
Different screen
Different drivers
You see how most things still don't work on that port?
There is a LOT of back porting that needs to be done. Its already a pain on the N5. They've gotten far but its a lot of work. It would be near impossible to get sense completely working on your phone. You can always use the working Blink feed launcher and a theme if you must have sense 6

Very cool! I never expected Sense to be working on Google Nexus's devices.

I think blinkfeed launcher is not working. It says incompatible device.
