Post by: matt on February 03, 2013, 12:18:50 AM: Given, but scanning paperwork and receipts with some ocr might be useful. Also fewer incompatible apps on play. So will 4.2.2 come before key lime pie? There were some leaked qualcom docs saying 3rd quarter, maybe.

It might be a bit useful for star charts for us xenophobes. You know, identifying ufos so we can grab our tin foil hats and stockpiled ak-47s.

Post by: bjs229 on February 03, 2013, 02:09:37 AM: Scanning.. precisely.

Post by: Bigtroutz on February 03, 2013, 02:29:39 PM: i don't doubt there are uses, and good ones too but for a low cost tablet without an option for the vendor to subsidize via contracts like a phone, something has to give.

At some point there will be decent tablets at every price point to fill every niche and desire but right now, the choices are limited.

Post by: matt on February 03, 2013, 04:21:07 PM: Within a few years, I'm sure there'll be tablets with terabytes of on board memory and batteries that go weeks between charges. I'll wait until then to have buyer's remorse.

Any eta on 4.2.2? Even bug fixes would be nice right now.

I haven't mentioned it but my battery life has been good but charging has been wonky lately. It takes over 7 hours to charge my battery now. Used to be less than half that.I think I might have a hardware problem after the drop.

Post by: matt on February 12, 2013, 10:06:27 PM: This might be the better thread to discuss the 4.2.2 bug fixes. Is bluetooth fixed?

Wifi drops and missed scans
Media scanner
Mediaserver
Media player
Domain name resolution
Charging issues
Miracast

The changelog at android police has a lot of phone entries, it may be for the nexus 4 version.
Is Bluetooth fixed?

Come on Google, no excuses... All Nexus devices should be updated at the same time...

Damn, some of the included tweaks are phone or even Nexus 4 specific.

Post by: matt on February 19, 2013, 06:44:51 PM: My bluetooth headphones are working great now. Should we start a compatibility list, or will things just work for a change? Need to test controllers, also can more than one device be paired concurrently? Audio+kb or game controller.

I'm using my Moga controller with Jambox for sound. Seems fine.

Post by: bjs229 on February 20, 2013, 05:23:51 AM: I paid full retail $49.99 cause I saw it at the Verizon store and had to have it. It's pretty cool though. The sticks are a little short for me with some games. For instance Pac Man is tough to navigate.

Post by: loociddreemr on February 20, 2013, 09:08:07 AM: If I turn my Moga controller on, then start the Universal Moga Driver app in system mode, it connects almost almost instantly. I've never had it connect so fast since the update.

Sorry you are still having BT problems.. I don't have a nex4 so I am a little in the dark. I have noticed better results since the update with the 7.

Post by: loociddreemr on February 20, 2013, 09:40:31 PM: No. I use it with Shadowgun THD often, but I'll look into it and see if I can cine up with something. Do you use Moga pivot or the universal driver?

I wear headphones most of the time on my computer. That way my wife's TV noise doesn't bother me and my computer sounds don't bother her. I don't know if I'm weird, but I'm definitely different.
