I have a Nexus 4, you have questions. Fire away.

I think this thread needs to be closed as there first post by the OP was back in 2012. Now it's just all sort of off topic questions being asked almost a year later.

Yes it does (Grant Earls) And for the messaging app that comes with the phone, whats the number in the top right corner, and why are some of my conversations highlighted gray and others white?

The number indicates the number of texts in that conversation (or thread as the app may call it).
The grey ones are the ones that you have read, and the white ones are ones that you haven't read.

first off, don't download random apk files to avoid malware.

Just reboot the phone and let it sit for a minute so it can scan for new files, only then plug in the phone, then you will see the file.
 
Hello. My Nexus 4 isn't located by Android Device Manager. I've gone thru the process in Google's help feature and I'm up to the point where I'm told to 'Clear data'. I now have an option to 'ok' or 'cancel', but I'm worried that if I press 'ok', it will wipe my phone. Can you provide any reassurance?
"Clear app data" only clear synced app data. If you want to to wipe your phone, you have to factory reset it. You should install the Helium app to make backups though.
 
The camera and build quality is far from terrible. Yes, I'd say the front camera could be better but for its price, in my opinion it is amazing. It also looks high end, with its sleek shiny surface, and its unique curves.
 
You've got your contacts from your google account not stored on your sim so when you delete it, the contacts go with it.
 
Hi, I have recently got a nexus 4 and now the auto rotate has stopped working. I have checked the obvious = Settings - display - auto rotate screen is ticked.
Any ideas why?

Thanks

Auto rotate only works in apps that do not force either portrait or landscape. It also does not allow you to rotate your homescreen, unless you have a custom launcher.

It is not rotating for any apps, even those it used to rotate for ( and my old phone (gingerbread) still does)

It's stock rom etc - no changes made at all. Have upgraded to 4.3 though although I can't remember if the problems started at this point - i don't 'think' so

Grab Phone Tester from the Play Store, open it and look at the Gyroscope under Sensors Status, then rotate the screen, if the XYZ axis change appropriately then the hardware OK and it's a software issue, look for an app or setting that might be interfering, and if all else fails, factory reset and try again. If they don't move correctly then you have a hardware issue and should contact LG for warranty replacement.
 
Thanks acejavelin, the xyz in 'gyroscope' all read 0.000 rad/sec however I move the phone so is it definitly back to Google for a replacement? It's only 6 weeks old.
 
Well thats weird - it's working this morning. Not done anything more to it. xyz are changing and screen rotates. Anyway , thanks for the help guys.

Download a malware detection app and scan your phone.
