Hmm...

I had it plugged in for hours, unplugged to find it was at 30%. It was not charging. Tried two cables and two power sources. A reboot fixed it, but what was that all about?

I'm finding that nothing will securely plug into the headphone jack - like the Nexus 4 jack is too shallow or something. I've tried 3 different mini devices with the same results. Anyone else finding this situation? Things will sort of plug in and will work, but they come unplugged very very easily.

EDIT: Just found this thread on the charging issue. No real solution offered. One user had the phone swapped out.

EDIT2: F! Lint from my jeans was in the headphones jack. WTF. Nasty. Had to get it out with a paper clip and flashlight. I'd delete this whole post, but, this was the "solution" to the "problem." I suppose it could happen to someone else.

EDIT2.1: Friend reported his phone "turned off" last night while charging. He uses it as an alarm clock, so that is not good. I briefly had an LG G2X and it would overheat and turn off randomly. Is that maybe what we are looking at here?
