My new Nexus 4 has..feet? - Nexus 4 General

I just received my new N4 from an RMA and noticed that there are now what appear to be two small bumps at the bottom of the just beneath the glass back. At first I only saw one and thought it was an imperfection but then I noticed the other in the exact same location on the opposite side. My old N4 doesn't have this. I'm guessing this was done to keep the glass from making contact with debris when it's laid on it's back, thus reducing potential scratches and damage. So is this new or did I miss something? Anyone else have these on their device?
I attached an image to show what I'm talking about. The extra layer you see on the rear of the phone is my dbrand skin.

You missed something.

I've got the 'retro' manilla version.
You could have at least drawn a picture of the Android on the front...give it a little flare.

It surely had to be inexpensive? Drawing such a picture on the front would have increased production costs and potentially made such a case impractical.

Think as though its marketing costs to get your product out there
I've been wrapping mine up in a t-shirt and throwing it in my backpack. That is until some decent cases are out.

Lol at the suggestions, on a serious note here's a decent alternative to oven mitts and padded envelopes on amazon UK.

I would call you all cheap 4sses but not everyone is as well off as I am. Great job with being creative! I do agree that the cases available right now are all little sub par. I bought a Moko case for 6 dollars and they offered to replace it for free. A little thick but good for free.

Nexus 4 has a pattern on the display.

If you hold up the phone turned off under bright light you'll see small blue dots in a grid pattern. Very cool.
Picture?

is the digitizer, the thing that let touch a smartphone not dumb
you can see it on every phone. Maybe in the n4 is more visible because lg used a special tecnology to blend it with the glass
Yea. It's totally right for Nexus to have these. For example, in SE Xperia Neo V there are barely noticeable lines running across the screen. You can sometimes see them when pixels are white. Now that's really annoying sometimes; as you can see, there's completely nothing to worry about

I didn't know being excited about something makes you a fanboy, right.
also, says the person who has a nexus 4 as well..
I figured that it had some rhyme or reason. It's definitely more noticeable, considering I've gone through a captivate and an HTC one xl without notice. As for the fanboy comment I really don't care. Trolls are trolls and hey. He's right. Who cares if I'm a fanboy dammit. I got my phone on the seventeenth, a day before my birthday, while the other poor souls wait.
Thanks for the info!
Thanks troll! I'm glad you were so amused
W00t my order shipped.

This pattern (as we agreed on is the digitizer) is very visible on my device even if the screen is turned on (!) It is really annoying on bright background colours. Anyone else suffering from this?

Yes I can confirm there is a Death grip for Wifi, when you hold the phone tightly on top side it lose wifi signal upto to 30%
you can download free app "Network signal info" turn it on and turn on wifi and tightly hold the phone from top side so you can cover from sim try to volume button sude tightly, but generally very less people hold it like that way
But I should say that there was no need of a new thread for this. You could've posted in mega thread

no you are right too. but as i said lots of people are interested if there are issues with it. i had death grip issue with xperia p if i find that HTC One has i will cancel my order. my business is from home most of he times on phone clients to book villa i cant afford losing a call.
No death grip here, people will say anything to knock HTC down. Seriously no problems here.
This shouldn't be a problem with the One. The antennas are invaded in the plastic strip on the back of the device which are molded to the aluminum unibody, they are not under the aluminum which is what causes the "death grip"

Avoid BESTBUY Platinum kickstand case Serio

I've always been a fan of these cases AKA Seidio Surface but unfortunately when the kickstand is used for landscape mode the video is upside down. Yep the damn kickstand opens the wrong way.... obviously they don't test out their products before putting it out for retail.
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
I'm not having that issue at all. I've played videos with the stock samsung video player and VLC and neither have issues playing either way I rotate it. You might want to make sure your Rotation Lock isn't on. I work at Best Buy and the kickstand is the same as it was on the S6 and Note 4.

Unfortunately the MLB at bat app only plays one way in landscape.. I was basing my post on that app

Yes that's the case, awesome overall case. I guess the problem I talked is isolated to that one app I mention which I was able to correct the issue by downloading a force rotation app and set it "reverse landscape"
But anyway I love this case maybe I jump the gun when I made this thread. .. definitely don't avoid it as the title states.

Learn to edit before you bad mouth a product due to your intelligence, or therefore, the lack of it.
This is hilarious
I love sedio cases. They are the best, period, but I noticed this the second it was unboxed in the video in another post on this board. There's a standard landscape orientation and the case doesn't conform to the standard. I have what is essentially the exact same case for my old note 3, it does conform to the standard. There's no defensible reason for changing it and MLB will be far from the only app affected.

Thanks for clarifying it saying it better than I could, of course people on XDA rather be jerks and blow off what I said and start critiquing.
Actually im loving the case might still keep it but I'm just bringing up a flaw in the kickstand.

You may just wanna edit the title of your post man. I was thinking about getting this case, and if I hadn't read through all this thread and just looked at the title and OP, I may have figured it was no good.

i have had the note 5 and case from best buy
since Friday and i just realized today that if you place the phone in holster with the screen out there is a separate kickstand on the clip it self that you can rotate . i actually thought i broke the clip the first time i did it but its made that way hope this helps.

Do we have replacement back cases for 550KL like moto phones?

And what is the material of original back panel.
Because I feel little discomfort after taking it into hands from a dusty surface(table or rack). So wanna change to some replacement break panel which doesn't come with the same original material.

I'm not sure if they have them or plan to make them, but it would be awesome if they did. I do like the look of the back, but I like a slightly grippier texture. I have a 551KL so idk if they're different.
