Nothing thus far. I have been babying it after seeing the state the back of my iPhone has gotten in over the few weeks I've used it.
I've heard the glass is appallingly weak. LG's quality control not doing their best, I guess.
Be careful, early adopters. This launch is such a mess by Google. Delay in bumpers, too, apparently. Tmobile stores also have no idea when they're getting cases/screen protectors, etc. Really ridiculous.
I sincerely hope Google is taking notes. I guess I was too hopeful to think they learned anything from their Nexus 7 launch. =T
Yeah, I knew something was up when the launch drew closer and closer and there was no pricing or additional information about the Nexus Orb or whatever it's called.
If I could make a face at Google, it'd be:

Whatevs. I just pop mine in the microwave for a couple of minutes each morning, and it charges it up just fine.
I do hope it is obvious this is a joke.
Three nice observations. The screen is really smooth. The speaker on back is loud. The curved glass really makes a difference when using apps that have the " slide from the edge to access more" type of UI.
Not yet. I've gotten two calls while it was on its back and heard things just fine. But I am home today and it's pretty quiet.
Try laying it on something that conforms a bit too it like a couch or leather furniture. That used to damn near mute my old Samsung dumb phone.
I'm currently getting AWFUL results in the speed tests. Like .01 Mbps. Yes point 01. I think my APN settings may be wrong or something.
It's showing only "H" and not "H+" also on AT&T

Nexus 4 owners: are you experiencing any of these bugs? http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/1...major-issues-plaguing-googles-newest-release/
Well since before even getting my N4 I was looking for a way to hide the nav buttons to get more screen real estate (for games, web browsing... anything I might want more screen where the nav buttons dont disappear on their own).
Well since I rooted I was able to install Hide Bar that does just that. It's not perfect and I am only using the--fully functional--demo version as wait to see if something better comes along. But it does work:

Well I'm pretty impressed with the battery for the first run. I think this is similar to what I got on my iPhone 4. I feel good about it! And I was pushing this phone pretty hard all day. I hope the attachments worked.
When the wireless charging orb comes about this will absolutely be a non issue. A few charging cycles should make it better too.

That actually looks pretty good. Can you also post a screenshot of the battery history (tap on the battery chart)?
To my surprise I held my thumb firmly over the speaker and it muffled it too. Who'd a thunk it!
