We've been waiting on the g3 devs, working hard on unlocking it, in the hopes it'll bring something nice for us as well. How promising do you guys think Bump! looks?
The g3 Thread
Anyone have any thoughts?

I'm not sure what thoughts you want?
Is it promising on the g3 then yes it works great for them. Is it promising on the flex then as it's been said a couple times there's already one being tested/working, but waiting to be fine tuned and i believe the devs want to get the website to bump images built before releasing it. Playfulgod has said in his thread he's running twrp and I'm running it too so be patient it's coming.
Just get ya the g3 and bump the the flex 4 realz yo!

I only hope Lollipop come up with some miracle screen tweeks which will make our screen looks as clean as any other 720p mobiles. then all the d-fused will be fused again other then the weak screen, G flex is just perfect. perfect curve's, perfect in hands, and on top of all its a centre of attraction.
i could not use G3 for more then 2 days because of the dull colors OS. and everything looks so flat so what if it's 4K
LONG LIVE THE FLEX

on my flex i found that if you bump the screen brightness to around 80%, it looks night and day different. the bat takes a little bit but not bad.
But i cant take brightness more then 40-% creates irritation

Which revision do you have? I'm on the newer one, and only after having it for five months, have I begun to notice the slightest bit of an issue. I guess after getting used to it, or possibly burning in the home buttons, have I noticed image retention. And on the new rev, the screen looks really nice at a high brightness, plus the battery is equipped to take it on. And after washing my screen, that bit of burn in from the Nav bar is gone! Good as new.
Also, what even became of this thread???
guess it died cuz bump works now

Lol If you buy the DHD you're going to be amazed by the screen. I thought I knew what was coming but holy c***p when I got the phone I was so surprised by the screen size It was like holding a 50" LED TV in my hands So I see it like this: if you really use the keyboard a lot for SMS'ing, browsing etc. buy the Desire Z but you're going to be blown away if you buy the DHD if you don't have such a big need for a physical keyboard
Hmm.. So tempted... Stop making it HARD!!!!!!
I've been on one at Harrods And it is nice... Camera is amazin... although I have yet to been on the dz ;D

BTW when I first looked at the Desire Z I thought it had an amazing design. Much better than the DHD but when I really looked thoroughly I actually thought it was kind of boring. And okay if you look at the DHD it also seems like it has a rather boring look but unlike the Desire Z I actually thought it looked better when I gave it a good look
Am I making it harder? (Lol that's what she said )

Looks like an old test device or sth, the back says with google instead of nexus. Also, the software is kinda of different from what 4.2 is supposed to be. Also, I can understand what he's saying and he didn't say anything that important....
Thanks for the link. It look different from the PlayStore photo which doesn't have that chrome frame which reminded me way too much of the iPhone 3G. Really hope there is no chrome frame.

I find the review pretty bad to be honest. He didn't double finger scroll down the notification bar, and he said you needed 1 more step vs the other LG model.
Since JB/ICS I never been able to long press homescreen to add widgets...
The display size on the Nexus 4 is 4.7 inches INCLUDING the menu buttons or EXCLUDING menu buttons?
Won't stop me from getting the phone despite the fact that i'm not too into the 3 menu screen button.
The buttons are on screen, so part of the 4.7.

I had no issues reported in previous threads..
-yellow screen? Nope.
-Rattling? - Nope
- Crickling noise with earpiece? Nada
UPDATE: The crickling noise is actually there, but its so damn minimal I can't even hear it from an inch away in the most muted environment. I personally believe it isn't a hardware defect, because since it is a speaker, I would expect a small amount of static noise to slip through. Overall, I can't hear it while I'm on the phone, or when the phone is OFF, so if anything its software that's triggering it.
If you SEARCH for an issue, you will find it
But why bother to, if in the end your just going to complain?
Still pretty damn happy beyond believe with this device. Regardless of the smallest OCD issues reported in this forum.
Just a heads up for people who got confirmation emails last night, and is expecting a phone today! Looks like (well atleast to me) the problems aren't there.. Or maybe I'm just extremely lucky.
Really...glad your phone is perfect. Mine is too, but I don't think we needed a thread for this.:good: maybe go to each thread and report your findings? If everyone made a thread about their phone. It would be cray up in hurrr.

all screens have defects. Amoleds, especially the one on the Galaxy Nexus, are more likely to have defects compared to LCDs. i think you were just unlucky with this Nexus.

That's what happened with the galaxy and google ended up refunding me.
If I were you, I would loop a video for like half an hour and see whether it improves. I also got similar things on my Xperia S and it's actually fairly common if the LCD is new or it has not been used for a long time. I looped a video with a lot of action and moving scenes for about half an hour and now it's perfect.
Mines gets a yellow spot as well it went away tho came back then a little again now its gone...

Even Chris Pirillo fell for that 'lag' exercise/flicking the screen when showing the N4 versus iPhone...I'm like..HELLO! WHO the f uses their phone that way!?! No one. Period. It's a stupid exercise that proves nothing. Compare the units in NORMAL navigation, and you MIGHT detect smoother operation, but I detect it as SLOWER operation.
