I was snapping photos and swiping to the right to view photos that I'd just taken and my GNex froze. Had to pull the battery to reboot it. First time I've ever had to pull it.
what is that option?Another cool find...go into advanced settings in WiFi and there is an optimization option to improve battery.

what is that option?
also i heard if you take a picture and apply filters to it. if you swipe the picture down you can see original and the modified picture.
The OTA update to 4.2 pushed to my phone today. My initial observations:
1. I have mixed feelings about the notifications shade revamp. While it looks "cleaner" by hiding various system shortcuts, the fact that you now have to flip over to the other page to access them seems kind of counterintuitive.
2. I think the new clock theme is ugly. The hour digit is in bold typeface, while the minute digits are not. I liked the old clock theme better.
3. Gesture typing (Google's version of Swype in 4.2) actually works quite well. I'm glad it's finally a stock feature.
And that's about as far as got digging into things today...
Is anyone else's screen seem sluggish when the power button is pushed?

Yep I got the N4 wallpapers on mine, I manually flashed the takju update which I found online

i am new to android and feel like i have made a great change from Apple. I cannot seem to find in the settings where to customize your phone. with effects and all the other minimal choices. anything i am overlooking. i have the Nexus 4
First off, welcome! You will find that the customization possibilities are endless when it comes to android. A couple of quick tips:
Change wallpaper, go on any home screen and long press
Quick settings, talked two fingers and simultaneously swipe down. From there you can access all settings including sound, WiFi, security, etc
Custom launcher, go to play store and search for nova or apex launcher. This will completely change the way your phone looks.
For a complete rundown you may want to read through different threads, YouTube videos etc

Gotcha! I was just hoping for customization like nova launcher but without downloading the app. I had the HTC One S but this phone just blows that out the water and any other phone I have used.
