[RESULTS] CPU Binning - Nexus 4 General

About a week back, I posted a poll here asking you all to check what type of binned chip you had. The results of the poll can be found here: http://poll.pollcode.com/qars3c_result?v
At the time I stopped counting results, there were 502 participants. About 100 were from /r/Nexus4 on Reddit, and the rest from here. Thank you to everyone who took part in the poll!
Anyways, if you want some visual results you can find them in this album here: http://imgur.com/a/6eCzh
Take from this what you will, but I believe this should dispel any rumors about the Nexus 4 using "leftover" or "cheaper" parts than the Optimus G. This is as much a premium device as it is. The super cheap price on the Play Store shouldn't fool you - that price is just because Google can make up the costs through getting you onto their Play and other Google services.

Thanks. Getting sick of people saying "Well *duh* they had to cut corners somewhere, so that's why the glass cracks, the impact zones are lacking, and my mommy's fat etc"

tried rebooting, i get NOTHING output! :crying: tried (space)dmesg nothing either!
on r53 if it makes a difference

Dude (or girl, whatever), this phone has a 400 MHz processor. It barely runs Gingerbread. Its just something not possible. If you really want, I can build Android 4.0 from cyanogen mod source (if we have a recent kernel which im not sure if we have) but there will be tons of problems...

well thanks for the offer but nah, it wasnt really a serious post.
i just look in here from time to time for a bit of nostalgia
i still smile when i see the "kaiser 3d drivers at last post"
i just reloaded Gingerbread and its running fine.
on the other hand, it does have a dedicated camera button, what about windows phone 7?

ICS should be possible though. It ran on the blueangel, and the kaiser is slightly faster.
Then again, android runs like **** on kaiser. Probably not a good idea to try anything newer than gingerbread....

Can't blame you. As much as I call it "work" flashing & re-flashing ROMs I can only imagine how much work it is to make them. One reason I have never taken that step to get to the next level here as I also deal with so much tech stuff at work and don't want it to consume all my free time too. BTW I also would never want to be doing those 24 hour dev marathons you do, hope you will finally sleep and pour those God awful Monster drinks down the drain where they belong! OK I'm through preaching.

Oh, wow. Didn't know you guys were still working on it lol. I saw the boot animation though and it looks really nice. I would suggest you guys all take a break sometime haha. You guys have been pumping out updates and new roms like crazy. Breaks are great
I love the AOSP 4.0 ROM. It's the only one where everything feels snappy. The only issues with it though is that GMAIL doesn't show me my email messages at times. It just shows a white screen. It gets fixed with a reboot, so it's not a huge issue.

That's an old bug with custom ICS ROMs that are all based on CM9. You can go into settings, apps, GMail and clear cache when that happens instead of rebooting each time. Just keep in mind you'll probably still get that bug from time to time as it was never fixed.

The mods gives out points that leads to being temp banned and if you continue or do something stupid they can ban you for good. This isnt posted anywhere because they claim its like explaining the law for loopholes so no one can push the system to see how much they can get away with. Pretty much the mods have the power to ban you if they need to it just depends on the mod and what you did they also can strip you of your title if your a developer or themer
http://www.xda-developers.com/announcements/banning-policy-revealed/
It's VERY sad that some people even questioned whether I was joking or not, but I halfway expected it. I mean, when I said "no one has brought up battery life" that wasn't a clue? Hello!!! That's what it's come down to around here and even though I was joking I was also testing to see what responses I would get. Disappointed but unfortunately not surprised.
I think I will just chill out until I get another phone because there is obviously nothing left to discuss here, it's always the SOS. "Need better battery", "SwapSD", "you guys are the greatest ever", "best ROM around" and now the new one "hey guys, I'm leaving". LOL. Somebody posts 5 times here and expects a going away party? Hey if you're Camcory though that's another thing, just to be clear btw. To think, those threads are allowed too.
Whatever.

Android 4.4 KitKat running on Nexus 4 + Benchmarks

This is the new Android 4.4 AOSP ROM, which was just recently published by PA, running on Nexus 4.
In the video I go through the new stuff that's been added to Android, including the new "Ok Google" feature.
I also ran benchmarks and the results were better than I expected!
Antutu benchmark score: 16867 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_8_I6xHiOk)
Quadrant benchmark score: 5042 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aQbUfnrwU4)
The scores will improve once Google released the official ROM with all the binaries and what not.
Here's the original ROM thread:

TToivanen is right, the battery stays intact as it only listens for the keyword while on the home screen.
Results should increase when actual 4.4 binaries/drivers+kernel is released with factory images.
