So yeah, a silly thread :)
So I ll get started,
On SGS2, no the N4, but still:
I had that MIUI rom installed where the normal microphone and the noice-cancelation microphone were inverted. So of course calling people, they would complain how low was my voice, and shouting in the "Microphone" would do worse :D

So how about you?

On my i9100 was running siyah kernel and got an app freeze. Mashed the home button and the whole phone inverted colours... I was like "whaaaaaaaaaat?!" but apparently it's a kernel feature :p

Text messages would be sent to a different contact.... no good when you are juggling women :p lol

That was on my I9100 and galaxy nexus though...... So far no funny business on the LG nexus 4!

That was a problem with Android, I believe back in Froyo or Gingerbread days. Thankfully it's been fixed.

Other than that, I hate bugs and need a stable rom, therefore stock. But sometimes stock has it's own share of bugs as well. Couldn't find any neither though.

Sensation 4g on cm9, had call audio routing issues. Meaning when you would be on a call, sometimes the voice would come out of the external speaker instead of the earpiece.

There is a quite funny bug on paranoid android for the nexus 4.
If you activate 180° screen rotation and turn the phone upside down, the screen is sometimes mirror-inverted.
Happens for example in the xda app when replying to a thread.


There was another great bug on the desire hd for some time.
When you wanted to partition the sdcard through clockworkmod, it partitioned the internal storage instead of the sdcard.
So it basically formatted the whole internal storage. Including the bootloader and everything else.

Oh the internal format storage, happened also in the beginning of JB on the S3, where CM (I think that was CM) would invert the mounting points yeah :D

On the galaxy exhibit 4g cm9, you couldn't call 911, the phone app would force close. glad I never needed to

My Xperia Play with Google Now, voice input is mapped to the camera mic in the back. Took a while to figure out why it wasn't working.

Also the SII had issues with upside down reversed image, probably due to the TV screen off animation mod.

Also not a rom bug, but beginning with Jelly Bean I didn't realize you have to specifically allow Google to access your location otherwise none of the Google apps can get GPS fix, took a long time for me figure out the issue.
