From what I understand those tests can't accurately measure the quadcore processor in the nexus 4....or something like that... Don't feel like looking it up I just remember reading something along those lines. That's why people shouldn't put so much thought into these tests... In real world use the nexus 4 outperforms everything speed wise from what I understand (obviously not data speeds... But Operation wise).

Not really. Other components are missing to make it usable. That's not to say they won't make an lte variant in the future, but I wouldn't count on the current version having usable lte.

Yeah, AP was saying it lacked the proper power amplifiers when Anandtech clearly had pics of them in their review, but I guess it doesn't matter since the phone doesn't have a LTE antenna.

People weren't really worried about the benchmark scores since most people knew what the S4 Pro is capable of. It's the throttling after a certain thermal threshold that had people worried. I mean it only happens under abnormal conditions like stressing out the phone while constantly running benchmarks, so it'll go unnoticed by 90% of the people that use the phone. The flipside is that as of right now there isn't anything(software wise; mostly games) that's gonna stress out the S4 Pro, but that can change in 6-12 months from now.

Yeah, I'd ignore the scores. I've thrown everything I can at this thing and I haven't noticed any slow down yet. shyt is smooth as butter. :ahh:

nexus 4 owners -
How to set up the right APN on your Nexus 4


link -http://www.androidcentral.com/how-setup-right-apn-your-nexus-4
nexus-4-apn-settings-chart.jpg


Choosing the right APN

If you plan on using your newly unwrapped Nexus 4 on either AT&T or T-Mobile postpaid services, you won't need any extra configuration. The devices come out of the box with the carrier's proper APN settings preloaded in the software. That's a good thing, because you shouldn't have to fiddle with APN settings to use your phone right out of the box.

Our resident Brit, Alex Dobie, also explained that every unlocked phone that's come across his desk (that's a lot of phones) has had the correct APNs loaded or available without any special configuration -- even for the more obscure carriers out there. Maybe it's just lucky, or maybe he lives in a continent of civilized individuals that like network interoperability, who knows. What we do know is that using the Nexus 4 (or any other unlocked device, for that matter) on a Prepaid carrier here in the states takes just a touch more work.

We've gone to the major Prepaid carrier's support pages and found the APN settings that are suggested by the carrier. Setting up your device with these APNs should get you up and running without any major troubles. Fill in everything exactly as you see on the chart below, leaving blank anything either not listed or grayed out here:

damn if LG can get PIRILLO to change his stance on android then they must have come through.

Lots of the stuff he is happy about has been around since ICS though, even with the shut off "tube tv" animation
