Really I thought odexed would be faster since everything is all 'zipped up' and you should only use deodexed if you want to install skin mods, etc

Apparently it's been confirmed that it's done by design to facilitate the swipe to preview that looked glitchy on 4.1 (?)....
I forgot how it looked on 4.1 now but I never noticed it looked glitchy before. | the entire screen/layout does rotate. didn't think this was a "bug" since the entire swipe preview etc probably needs to rotate to accommodate this anyway.

Has anyone switched between 4.2 roms? I know that switching back to 4.1.2 is messed-up at the moment due to the changes to how the phone partitions your files on the internal sd. However I'm not sure if there will be any problems while switching between 4.2 roms. I read that some people ended up with sdcard/0/0/0 with another 0 being added for every flash of a new rom, but the information hasn't been consistent.

yeah i only noticed it when the phone was off. only had it for a couple weeks though so that was kinda fast
I really don't want to use a screen protector but if it scratches this easily I might have to

From the Nexus series only the Nexus One and the Nexus 4 have Gorilla Glass. The others have curved glass which prevented them from using Gorilla Glass at the time.
I'm using a glass screen protector on top. Feels just like stock.

It doesn't have to be Corning Gorilla Glass to be scratch proof or scratch resistant. Just decent quality.
On my HTC I had for 2 years, the screen is pretty much the only thing that isn't scratched 
Screen protectors never look as good as stock, it's impossible. But it might be worth it if the glass scratches really easily like this seems to

CRS, what did you type in the dial pad to "clear cache" and get my phone to prompt update again?

Posted via RS Mobile | So that explains it. Ironically that coating is the main reason to not put a protector on it...
I really hate that I wasted $60 on this protector that I can't wait to rip off | |

Hey guys, I need help. I flashed Yakju 4.2 factory and now I can't connect to any network. I'm on mobilicity. Any ideas? I can see Mobolicity in my APN list but only "CDN Roaming", "302610", "302490", and "Telus" in the network list.

OP:
What I suggest is go to your dialer and hit *#*#4636#*#* which will take you to a test menu. Hit "Phone Information," scroll down, "Set preferred network type" to WCDMA.

Also, did you remember to change the setting on your phone to "mobile media device" or whatever it is that we're supposed to use instead of mass storage?
