Nexus 5 OS on the Verizon G2 - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Basically, I'm wondering if we are going to be able to take the stock ROM on the Nexus 5, and bring it straight to the Verizon G2? Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, all we really need is a pure AOSP ROM right? But will that allow us to still have all the features specific to the G2?

[Q] Nexus 4 on ATT - Will Google Wallet Work?

Either ATT or T-Mobile or both, Will Google Wallet work out of the box
on the Nexus 4?

Yeah, in both cases att and tmo have no power over this. Unless tmo fills their nexus with bloat

I just set it up for the first time ever. It didn't work on my
Galaxy Nexus, but it worked fine on new Nexus 4.
Yes, Google Wallet does work on Nexus 4 with either AT&T or T-Mobile

[Q] Nexus 4 + Optimus G Kernel = MIUI?

As I miss the good old MIUI
And MIUI 4 doesn't work on 4.2
And MIUI 5 seems to take forever
And MIUI can quite easily be ported to 4.1
And Optimus G is 4.1
And Nexus 4 can flash Optimus G Kernel
I just wanted to ask if somebody with more time than me wants to try and port MIUI 4 to the Nexus. :good:
Miui 4 is in fact terribly optimized on my older nexus s, I'm not too sure about the galaxy nexus as I never flashed it, but I would assume the same. It's never a good idea to have a hacked phone, running on ported software, as problems will be much harder to debug, as they could be from either the port or/and the hacked kernel

[Q] Nexus 4 at google site

hi i have ATT iphone4s and getting bored with it, thinking of getting the nexus 4, will google ship me the nexus 4 with 4.2.2 or 4.2.1?
i hope its 4.2.1, easier to do the LTE tweak, otherwise i will have to rooted it and install the 4.2.1 radio am i right?
Who knows what version you'll get. No one knows what version they'll get until they turn on the phone. it's the luck of the draw.
Not only will you need to downgrade to 4.2.1 you will need the old baseband to get it to work. You need the .33 baseband installed.

Also you'll need to be in one of the AT&T Markets that support LTE Band 4
Google Nexus 4
My bet is that you would receive one with 4.2.2.

Nexus 4 vs SGS4 vs Htc One (lag)

Hi everybody, I want to buy one of this three devices (since I have a very old phone now, the galaxy ace), but I'd like to know which one is the most lagfree. The s4 and the htc one are surely faster (even If I saw some videos in which the n4 with custom rom was faster than an s4 with stock rom), but what about lag? Is the n4 really the smoothest android experience? Thanks in advance!
I have not gotten the chance to try the Galaxy S4 but I have gotten to use an HTC One for a few days, I loved the phone but I still feel my Nexus 4 was a smoother experience. The HTC one is extremely smooth and fast though, no doubt.

I've heard that the s4 has some lag. Either way every android phone I had with oem skin on has gotten more and more slow and laggy, my gnex is almost smoother then my s3 by now.. I have no idea why

The S4 is very laggy at the moment. I've had both the AT&T and T-Mobile version both lag during leaving apps. Sometime it lags on the home screen while moving through pages.
HTC one i only got to play with for about 30 mins and it was pretty smooth. I didn't notice lag at all. But the nexus with a custom rom is going to be better until someone makes better use of the HTC one and GS4 power.
And for the record the GS4 lag on a custom rom CM10 and Wicked.
I played with a brand new s4 today, only factory apps installed, and imported contacts, and i definitely noticed some ui lag. Nexus 4 is way smoother imo.

The S4 is stupidly laggy for something with such amazing hardware. From videos that I've seen the One seems pretty much as lag-free as the N4, right now the One is definitely the best phone on the market IMO.
Ok guys, thanks for the help! I want the nexus 4 so badly!

I had a play wit ha S4 yesterday. Its almost unrecognizable as an android device. Samsung has done their best to bloat touchwiz up so bad, it almost wont run. Shame for a phone with such awesome hardware to have stuttering and lag like that .
S4 is too much laggy (exynos octa version) because it doesnt have a govenor and I/O scheduler sufficiently smart to manage the low-power and and performance cores.
If you wanna add a wildcard how about the s4 Google edition, all the nexus experience with the Sammy hardware. Unlocked bootloader out of the box. Should be a contender.

I've had my nexus 4 for about 2 weeks and I have yet to experience any type of lag.

I read that the s4 gogle edition will be an USA exclusive, and I live in Italy... Also the nexus 4 looks 100 times cooler ahahah
I was torn between the GE S4 and the Nexus. I picked the nexus because it is the same experience for almost have the price.

If you plan on getting a nexus 4 root and flash roms and kernels, it makes the phone so much better

I've got a Nexus 4. Zero lag. Very smooth. I've gone into a few different AT&T stores to check out the HTC One and the S4. Every time I tried the S4, the first thing I noticed was lag. I was really surprised. Even a little jittery when swiping the home screen. It's not terrible, don't get me wrong, but it's there. Didn't notice it with the HTC One.
My thoughts are that the HTC One has the highest build quality of the three. There's no doubt, it's the most "premium" and for that reason it makes me want one. It also has the best screen in my opinion. However, there's also no doubt that the Nexus 4 has the best software (both HTC and Samsung ruined their phones with all the unnecessary changes they made) and there's also obviously no doubt that it will get Android updates the quickest and longest into the future, so for that reason I'd stick with my Nexus 4. I also hate that both HTC and Samsung removed the dedicated app switcher button (which I use all the time). The Nexus 4 battery life is a little disappointing coming from an iPhone 4S, but it blows the iPhone away in almost every other way in my opinion.
The best phone "in the world" would be an HTC One that was a Nexus and had the app-switcher button. But, it doesn't exist. So, Nexus 4 is my vote instead.

Port Note 5 apps and maybe rom?

Can't wait for one of our developers to jump on this!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/deodex-galaxy-note-5-dump-t3179420
I was thinking about it but the note 5 is honestly no different in software to our phones now. Note 5 is honestly a fail. Samsung is going down iPhones route, same design and software in every new phone. I'm switching to the Moto X Pure Edition.

They already managed to port some of the S6's apps over to the Note 4, didn't they?
Just give the devs some time, we'll probably get the Note 5 software enhancements soon enough.
Maybe soon...
