Searched for this thread for a while I but I knew I?d find it. I?ll answer with a very loud NO. My Nexus 7 is no longer buttery smooth, and noticeably slower compared to my N4. Pulling up the keyboard is the big challenge and that really contributes to the slowdown especially when you want to do...

I'm in the same boat having downloaded nova recently (first android phone), you can check out my screen shot from this link. I didn?t stray too far from the stock layout, but changed icons, changed the search bar and put in the weather widget. Look through all the screen shots and you can find...

I like the apple earbuds because they're relatively cheap, good combo of sound quality and portability, have a one year warranty and the remote clicker works well enough with android. A rundown of how the apple earbud's remote works for the N4: Can: pause/play audio (google music, pocketcasts...

I recently got a small crack on the bottom left, no screen space effected but still a crack, that was enough for me to go back to a case, but I don't use the bumper, just a plastic shell.

This is my problem, my walk to work is on a busy street and when traffic is going it's pretty hard to hear podcasts, especially because podcasts have such a wide range of broadcasting volume. I'm wondering how legit these volume booster apps are, sounds like some people here dismiss them as an...

Good question, I have done what above posters have instructed and that does work for some actions, like opening pics with Gallery. However I still can't get the NY times app to open (instead of chrome) when I click on a ny times link on twitter, FB or even emails from the times. I seam to...

I'll also recomend Nova Launcher, I've found it's close enough to stock to not be overwhelming but still allows customization, putting the little numbers next to app icons is only for the prime version, the free version also has plenty of options. And the best part about android is if you get...

Overall i rarely need to charge if I start the day full. I play through the speaker for about 1 hour a day, texting, web browsing and facebook on mobile data and a little podcast streaming. Most of my usage throughout the day is not on wifi, even if I get home late my battery isn't below 10%

Just started messing around with the new launcher. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Android Central Forums

I?m considering a switch from chrome and this is one of my big hold ups. I use chrome on my nexus 7, phone, laptop and work computer. If I ad a bookmark on one it?s there on everything, can firefox or dolphin provide this? I have noticed slow speeds on chrome and 4.2.2 so I?m open to change

Google Wallet at Walgreens, every damn day. Lockscreen widgets, overall layout of the main screen, . When it really starts working google now will be show off worthy. And of course, naked, no cases.

Hey guys, after the uproar about google reader I decided to finally check it out, I downloaded feedly and started loading up my feeds. Most of my reading is doestic politics, city planning, sports and TV wrap ups. A lot of my feeds don't provide pictures and I wish the feed looked more visually...

I also bought my N4 around christmas, battery life seems to have improved, I fear for the headphone jack and feel like it eventually might loose connection, but thats what bluetooth headphones are for. Aside from that I feel the quality has improved

Right now I'm on the stock Jelly Bean keyboard, I bought and used swiftkey for about a month but had to go back, predictions weren't as good, typing took longer, design wasn't my taste, hated the color options for the swping line, which for some reason is a big deal for me. I have very few...

Pocketcasts is definitely worth the money. It will automatically download podcasts as soon as you wake up the tablet, possibly if the tablet's sleeping and the app is open. No compalints about pocketcasts, lockscreen widget is good and skipping back and forth 10 and 30 seconds is freat.
