Look at it this way, I want to get the phone, but I don't want a defective phone, I am sure they (Google or LG) don't know many of the problems, the faster they know about the problems, the faster they can resolve the problems. Not harassment, just concerned. If nobody speaks up, how do they know something is wrong?

I only list my employment to Foxconn to basically show that I know something about quality testing before sending product out to customer.

Really? You think a company like Google or LG doesn't have any information about its current product offerings? You're only fooling yourself on that one.

You do not own this device, yet you think your knowledge exceeds that of the manufacturers of said device because you've browsed a few forums. Come on now.

Please, read the post below again and look at your most recently closed thread.

Why? You don't own the device yet you are effectively harassing Google about problems you've only heard of second-hand through forums. See my post in your other thread about why you shouldn't buy into the complaints you read in forums. Yes some products are defective, as with every single piece of technology that hits the market. They are the minority. If you receive a defective device, exchange it for a good one.

P.S. Working at Foxconn yet NOT OWNING THE DEVICE gives you zero credibility in this specific circumstance.

Reading through the OP list (most of which are just ridiculous, btw)...No. There is a very slight rattle from the volume rocker if you shake the device, which is not even an issue.. it's a thing that happens when you shake two pieces of plastic together when they aren't molded together, lol. Nothing else there applies to my device, and some are truly ridiculous to list as faults, and some are just not true, and some are going to vary with experience i.e..
16... Glass is slippery. Glass will break and crack if you drop it. Shocking.
2.. wifi signal is stronger than on either my Gnex or Bionic before it.
4... picture quality, this is an opinion. It's sure nicer than the 5mp camera from my Gnex, and the Bionic's was notoriously bad. I'm very satisfied with it.
6... Did anyone even read this? "out of the blue back cracking with no impact"... Sure, whatever you say. I'll believe that when I see it :)
5... I cannot make this device lag if I try.
10.. Random reboots? Not one here since first getting it Monday.
No issues with screen leakage, pixels, anything... No overheating (back can get warm if taxing it, it isn't bad. The Gnex could cause 3rd degree burns sometimes, lol...
Not going through any more on there, it's too silly to bother.

Point is.. everyone needs to stop believing everything you read from forums.

i have a samsung google nexus 4 and am experiencing many problems with it i was wondering if anyone had any similar problems or insight because i am at loss for what to do. it will not let me delete photos, it adds apps without my knowledge or permission. i cannot delete my apps. my apps have the ability to change passwords and accounts on my phone withut my permission. the network says full bars yet i cannot go on my email or make phone calls. it doesnt ring when i get phone calls. it changes its own volume. it sends text messages and emails without my knowledge. i cannot change any settings on it they just reinstate when i turn my phone off and on. the screen gets lines of light randomly. it turns off at random. if anyone has insight or knowledge of anything having to do with this info please reply to this post!!!!!!

you lost me at "samsung google nexus 4"

every thing you said after that is complete rubbish and there is no way those things are happening on your phone (assuming you even own one, which you probably don't)

This thread is trash. Can a mod please close this? It's virtually the exact same as the one he had before that got closed.

I haven't had one issue with mine. Not one. Usage and issues vary per user but you can't make these types of claims without owning the device. It's like me commenting about how bad the new Maybach rides without ever riding one nor owning it to make that wild assertion.

Might have hurt his credibility some when he doesn't even own the device yet.

Then again, he DOES work for Foxconn, so all bets are off.

LOL. Im freezing my genitalia off walking my dog and read this. Really did laugh out loud :)

Internet high 5 for that one.

One nagging issue that's plaguing my pre-release unit is the touchscreen goes unresponsive about 3-4 times a day, i'll have to lock the screen the bring it back up to get it to work again, quite a PITA.

It rattles when you shake the phone? Don't shake the phone then.....

I just shook my iPhone 4S and it rattled slightly, so guess what? I'm not gonna shake it again.....

Received my phone today and def have numbers 1 and 3 so far. And they're very apparent both the heat the yellowing.

I heard its just a glue, according to what I heard, it dries 100%( after a couple days) and the yellowing will disappear

(This is what I read on the internet so idk If its true)

I have seen that too, on both my wifes and my unit. No pattern to it that I can tell. Both 16g N4s.

I'm having random reboots. Has anyone with this problem alerted google to it? And if so have they offered a solution/have you found a solution? It's not so annoying that I want to return the phone but I dont mind requesting a replacement is the problem is anything but software related. Thank you.

As majority of phones don't have the problem it is highly likely to be your hardware and not software fixable - of course keeping in mind some app you have installed could be the cause of the problem, which would make it neither, or at least not an OS issue.

Re: GTH :)

Safe to say we can lock this one up as the OP has erased every post and edited it to tell us all to "GTH."

Smooth, guy.

P.S. Almost all your posts were quoted, I'm not sure what you were attempting to accomplish by erasing what you wrote. The internet doesn't forget :)
