I have been using Android only for roughly 7 years or so, and as such I have very little experience of using an iOS. I have although, seen how mature the OS is, and how stable it is. One of the reasons for me staying with Android for so long, was that I used to flash ROMs and root my devices...

No custom recovery no. I'm not sure of it makes a difference but I'm stock android. Can I install custom recovery on stock? By custom recovery do you mean something like CWM? Is it one custom recovery for any device, or is it device specific?

I have not flashed any ROM's since moving to OSx and my nexus 4 so I am totally out of this game right now. I've looked into it and tried to run Cyanogen Mod Installer Mac Beta (https://plus.google.com/communities/100663046352711689172), although it isn''t available for Yosemite yet (currently...

Yes, MTP is on, PTP is not selected. I've also made sure my screen is unlocked before plugging in the USB and then running AFT.

I am trying to connect my Nexus 4 to my Mac via Android File Transfer. I have updated to Lollipop a month ago, and Android File Transfer has stopped working as a result. The error message is "No Android device found. Please connect your Android device with a USB cable to get started." When I...

I have been looking for a solution to my problem for some time now, with very little lucky unfortunately. This is an intermittent problem I am having and does not happen all of the time, but a good percentage of the time (50/60%), and not every contact, it seems to be a weird one weather or not...

I am looking for some kind of way that I can make my charger for my Nexus 4 (Micro USB) a magnetic attachment? I've seen this one but the cable is only 80cm, The cable I have now is 300cm! I've also had a quick look on eBay but it seems I can only find them for the Xperia Z rather than a...

Is there anyway to set a Tasker profile which states if I am at home turn my pin off but set a pin for certain apps only? I have done the first part, but cant set a pin for apps specifically. Thanks a lot for any help!! Please move if in the incorrect sub-forum :)

Oh ok, shame. Thanks :)

Sorry, I should have said Stock rom also. I just had a look at Launcher and its version 4.4-920375. It does not say if that is Launcher3 though, just Launcher.

They do not remove themselves with no icons. I have removed all icons from my last 2 screens but they still remain. Also when I long press the background I get only the option to change wallpaper. Are you sure these features are on the N4, I thought these functions were only on the N5??

Is the stock launcher still not custimazable in the new 4.4 OTA? If it is, then how can I remove home screens?

Has anyone tried the stock encryption with android (4.2 and above possibly?)? I'm wanting to encrypt my phone but I've heard it can slow it down, which is obvious, bit is it notecebly slower? In order to remove encryption for good on the device, do you need to factory restore? Sent from my...

Oh ok. I just wasnt sure as I came from TW. LED notification light on N4 is pretty poor in all honesty, it flashes extremely slowly! I know I can download a third party app but are there any ways to change the settings of the LED flash without a third party app?

Whenever I get any notification, the screen does not come on, if the phone is locked. The screen only turns on for calls, or if i actually tuen the phone on. Am i missing something, because I cant seem to find a setting to turn the screen on with notifications. It is stock apps, like messaging...
