Android 4.2.2 OTA Update

image

After installing 4.2.2 through OTA, my mobile radio doesn’t work. WiFi, Bluetooth, etc… everything works fine but my network says “No Service”… it can’t detect my IMEI either. As usual… I Google’d and found a thread on XDA how to fix it. The first page of the thread looks hopeless… they are saying that I have to change the motherboard and nothing can fix it… and I was like “WTF!”

After hitting page 2… finally someone posted a link from XDA thread… flashing it will fix the issue. So I rush and start the day flashing my Nexus 4 the following day… My pictures, music, SMS and keepass files are stored and sync on Dropbox, SkyDrive,UbuntuOne and Google Drive. So… everything seems covered and flashing went well and successful. One thing I forgot though… my 2-step verification for Google and Dropbox… sh!t

I’m able to recover my Google Authentication but my 5gig+ Dropbox left out of luck. Their tech support says, they cant recover my account unless I can provide the 16 digit emergency code. Guess what! It doesn’t work! I can’t blame Dropbox… either their tech support for what had happened. Dropbox is a great product and service… it is faster and reliable than other cloud storage as far as I know (base on my personal experience). In fact… I created a new account again.

Lesson: Don’t use 2-step verification if you don’t know how to follow instructions ^_^

Android 4.2.1 to 4.2.2 update doesn’t provide any significant changes. As expected of course… it would be 4.3 or 5.0 if does! silly!!!

Thanks for reading!

Almost there!

#Nexus4 Case: Nilkin Hard Case and Soft TPU Gel Silicone Case

TPU Gel Silicone Case Daily

I bought two protective cases for my Nexus 4 few months ago… a Nilkin Hard Case and Soft TPU Gel Silicone Case.

I use Nilkin Hard Case just to show it off because it looks tough and thinner than Soft TPU Gel Silicone Case. But whenever I want to mix my unit with keys* and coins* inside my pocket, I use Soft TPU Gel Silicone Case. Coz it covers all corners for bumps and protect its screen when the unit is faced down. TPU also grips on lots of surface and with wont slip like Nilkin.

Most of the time… I use Soft TPU Gel Silicone Case because it stays inside my pocket more often ^_^ than showing it off ^_^.

I posted some pictures of “Nilkin” and “Soft TPU” for you to decide which case fits to your needs.

Notes:
* I use XtremeGuard film to protect my screen and shiny back panel from scratches.
