i am not sure if this is what you are looking for but i have this one, i like it but it is too bulky from time to time you add the cards and bills and well the device is not thin anymore, it is kinda like the bookbook but for the nexus 4 and there is another one, but i dont own it so i dont know if it is good or not but it is kinda like the s3 flip case but for the nexus 4 i guess, hope it helps
I got the iOttie "easy Flex car mount 2" a few days ago and it's been great. The regular iOttie was too bulky for my car windshield where I wouldn't be able to use my windshield visors. This one, though, is pretty thin and extremely solid. The easy Flex 2 has their "one touch lock" and is only a few dollars more than the regular easy Flex. Totally worth the price imo. Link:
http://www.amazon.com/cell-phones-accessories/dp/B0099RGRT8
Edit: sorry, mobile link.
Checkout the iOttie Easy Flex 2. I was in the same shoe as you looking for something to be able to easily record (wanted to do time-lapse) and still be sleak.
This thing is simply awesome. It's such a small footprint, has great positioning options. As for the speed of placing your device and removing it? Holy crap, I tell my friends about it before they see it and they're still shocked when they finally see in person how stupid simple it is.
And yes, it works with the official dock (and can easily handle a whole range of devices).
I 2nd this. I got a 1 inch long scratch on my screen the other day. Immediately bought a screen protector. After I applied it, I gave my phone to coworkers asking them to find the scratch. None was able to find it. This is due to the screen protector allows the light to refract and reflect on the layers of the additional silicon, and not the scratched glass itself.
In your case, having a screen protector will also prevent further cracking of the glass.
I suggest SGP, best screen protector I ever used. Best of all, it is Oleophobic, just like the original glass.

If you want something slim and small then look at this one. I got one last week and I'm loving it so far. Really slim and and really nice. The 10000mAh Anker is probably better if you want something that will last a really long time. For me, 4500mAh is enough since I never drive very far and size was really important (it's 126 x 64 x 10 mm while the phone is 133.9 x 68.7 x 9.1 mm). After 2 straight hours of streaming music and running navigation it charged the phone by 30% and still had around 25% of its own capacity left (phone was at 100%).
Also, why not just get a car charger? External batteries are great, but if you're in the car for a long time it's cheaper and easier to just have a car charger
The only legit Slimport I know of is this one. It's almost 3 times that of a MHL (since they don't work on our N4's) but there aren't too many manufacturers that make the Slimport. Trust me, i've looked around. Plus, it looks like Amazon restocked this model. It was sold out for awhile and people that had one, marked up the price to almost three to six times of the original.

Holy christ you really destroyed the scree! Nice work :-) I just installed a very similar part yesterday and it's been working fine. One of the screws holding down the battery cable was super tight and I came close to stripping it out. Also when I reassembled it seems like I didn't have one end of the antenna coax cable tight, so the bars would drop to zero and the phone would red-light-shutdown.
This video was the most helpful of the few that I found on YouTube. I would also recommend getting a very small flathead screwdriver which will assist in unlatching some of the clips/cables.
This. That particular item is currently marked as unavailable, but many apparently identical ones seem to be out there.
Worked perfectly whenever I've used it, although some apps won't display over an HDMI interface. Pretty sure that's a limitation of the app rather than the device, though.
Here is the screen protector I ordered for my Nexus 4 and my wife's. We both have the diztronic case and really like this screen protector. We hadn't used a screen protector for the longest time, but I was noticing some super tiny scratches from the phone being in my pocket and decided we should do something to protect our screens.
I did the same thing on my first replacement. This is the screen I ordered. Apparently you're supposed to take the cover from the old screen and put it over the notification light area on the new one. I really disliked the screen though. It seemed to crack much easier when I cracked it the second time, and it wouldn't recognize touches all the time. The second time, I ordered this screen. It doesn't come with any tools, but if you already have some you don't need any more. So far it's been better from what I can tell. There is a sticker that I think you're supposed to take off for the notification light, and I didn't realize it, so now my notification light is too dark (instead of too bright like yours and mine last time). So for future reference, or if you really want to fix it, that is the screen I would order.
As for returning the screen, I highly doubt you'll be able to do that, as the screen functions as intended; they just didn't make it obvious that you have to do something for the notification light area. You could try removing the screen and fixing it by putting something under it like a piece of black tape or something, but unless it really bothers you, I wouldn't risk breaking the screen again by trying to remove it.
Sounds like water damage might be the problem, and if so then you'll have to replace the charging port flex cable dock connector ribbon (not sure if all of that is how you say it).
dock connector ribbon. This takes like a month to arrive, so you might want to buy from somewhere else.
Might also need some tools.
Hope that helps, cheers!
It would be nice if they did. I went through a couple crappy poetic cases (one case, one bumper) both fell apart within weeks.
Then I found this http://www.amazon.com/BoxWave-Resolute-OA3-Nexus-Case/dp/B000LJWEGI/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
and have been really happy with it. Granted, it's only good if you like the beefy ballistic style case.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000LJWEGI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A30XRGG45X0IFD I got this one. Haven't gotten it yet but it seems pretty nice and it's only $3 + shipping.
A few suggestions...
You can try installing an app called AirDroid through the Google Play Store online and accessing photos that way. Or you could try a slimport connector with a usb otg cable which allows you to hook into an HDTV and control your phone screen with a mouse. Good luck!
Totally. You're not going to get a good looking minimalist bumper that will protect your phone from a drop on a hard surface. If you want drop protection look at something like this, I've had it since they came out and it's great.

I've seen replacement backs on amazon for about 20 bucks and I don't think they're too hard to put on. Might be worth looking into.
*Edit: Here's a link to a replacement back on amazon. Reviews say it is pretty good and it should make your phone look new again.
I have one of these. Pretty much bulletproof. Not compact by any means, though I'd say the extra-thick corners and hard shell make it one of the best cases I've ever seen for drops. It actually makes the buttons clickier too, which I find mind-boggling but is welcome.
Thanks for the advice guys! Does anyone have a recommended replacement? I found a few on Amazon but they have both 5 and 1 star reviews.
I am split between this one:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HFMWZCC/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=AEQWZUC8629A0

Thanks a bunch!
> LG WCP-300
Thanks for this. I've been looking for a cheaper, well reviewed Qi charger. I wanted to save on shipping ( I'm a Northerner ) and this is what I found [(http://www.amazon.ca/Electronics-WCP-300-Wireless-Charging-Pad/dp/B00C6VP03I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1376053464&sr=8-1&keywords=LG+WCP-300)]
Try a new battery. Cost me less than $20 on ebay. I had all kinds of shutdown problems and a new battery fixed them. Tho I still do have the camera flash crashes the whole damn phone. I added the Camera 365 app a couple of weeks ago and use that as my main camera and it hasn't crashed yet.
While I was waiting on my new battery to arrive, I kept my phone plugged into one of those portable external USB charger/battery things. It was clunky to carry around, but it helped with the crashes until I got the new battery and installed it.
Good luck!
> As with all new phones, the lcd screen and touch components are integrated into the one unit, so the part is expensive.
The two may be fused together, but they aren't integrated. It is possible to replace one, but not the other, but given how much more trouble is involved and the additional opportunities for things to go wrong, it's not worth the time and aggravation, IMO.
>People will tell you to buy a new screen and fix it yourself. While this is reasonable advice, this isn't as easy as it once was a few years ago, and is VERY easy to mess up without the correct tools and method.
True, while it is possible to damage your phone in the process of repairing it (which is true of any kind of repair), repairing the Nexus 4 isn't that difficult (though it is a bit time consuming). I just replaced my screen/digitizer assembly about two weeks ago, and it's fifteen screws, a bunch of pogo pins, and a couple ribbon cables. If you're comfortable with working on tiny components with tools it's not impossible to do, though depending on your screen replacement it can be annoying (the ribbon cable for my screen kept wanting to unfold itself) but not too difficult. Certainly easier than the iPod Touch screen replacement I had attempted the previous month.
And as far as tools go, there are a lot of kits out there that include tools. This was the kit I purchased, and it had everything I needed in it (though you might want to opt for using your own screwdrivers as these tiny things can be uncomfortable to use after a while).
>Considering the price of a new screen unit, pay the little bit extra and just get a service centre to do the whole job [seriously, it's like an extra $20].
I had a repair place handle my first screen replacement and it actually costs, in my area, about twice what it costs to just buy the kit. Of course, I'm not saying don't have someone else do it, I'm just saying to make sure you get a quote from them before blindly agreeing to it.
why do you need the metal frame(isn't it hard plastic)? did you dent it good? you can buy the LCD and digitiser in one unit. i got this one. do a google search about the proximity sensor failing after you replace the screen. you can prevent it from happening by doing something during the replacing process(don't know what). after i replaced my screen, the sensor didn't work, but it was too difficult to remove the screen again so i had to live with the sensor not working(complete hassle). also, my replacement screen didn't settle flush with the sides of the frame. i think the tape was a tad bit too thick. i used the tape all the tutorials recommended. it would be best if there was some liquid adhesive, but i don't know where to look for that.
I highly recommend this one
It is the LG WCP-300, its tiny, works perfectly, and is one of the least expensive qi chargers out there. Came extra quick from Verizon Wirless online, I also hear you can buy them in store. They are sold by Verizon as the wireless charger for the LG Lucid, so this might help you help the dude at Verizon store find it (or similarly help you find it on the online store).
The link i provided is to the verizon site, but i had to enter my state and thus the link might not work properly, or you might have a different price or availability. If not here it is on amazon
I have a wireless charger, something like this and a case this one. It works fine but you have to position the phone correctly. But I decided it's just easier and it takes less space on my desk to plug the phone directly to the USB cable.
I have this one and I absolutely love it!
Edit: My imgur Album
I have the Poetic Slim Case. The black one is only $4.50 right now on Amazon. Never used the Ringke but they look pretty similar to me.
I bought this recently: (nexus 4 back)[ http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00FRBVMLS] well I stuck at this formatting thing on my phone...
$19.88 - comes with Pry tool and (shitty) torx screwdriver.
It took about 30 minutes to swap. I was being very very careful, but it was easy.
You need a slim port HDMI adapter, this one has been verified to work with the n4, but I am sure there are others.

Don't know if your local electronic store sells them but lots on Amazon or EBay.
Edit: obviously they are marking these up just a bit... I had a look at the price.. Yikes! Try eBay maybe!
I've had the S-Line bulky flexible case, the Poetic bumper, the official Google bumper, and the Rinke Fusion (which is currently on the phone). I too have been pining for a slimmer case so I just ordered this off Amazon. Looked to be the thinnest case outside of a .3mm case on Ebay. I really wish someone would produce sticky corner protectors for the phone. Just enough to elevate the glass off of surfaces and provide minimal cushion when the phone is dropped.
I used the drops, they don't work, like at all.
I bought an oleophobic screen protector after seeing this guy recommend it
I agree with literally everything he says about it. It feels so damn smooth now, before my finger would drag a lot when swiping across the screen. It feels so sexy now.
Edit: I actually bought it from Amazon.
Back then I paid almost $18 for it and now it's not even $10, and you get 2 screen protectors in each pack! I would highly recommend this product.
I bought this one about 2.5 months ago. It works great. I just use the bumper.
I got this one. Has worked great for me for the past few months.
I just use this It's cheap, lots of juice, and most importantly, it is light and slim. Doesn't make me feel like I'm carrying a brick.
You can get them at Amazon, even with Prime shipping.

Its a little tricky popping the N4's case off, but other than that its easy. Plenty of Youtube videos showing how to do it.
This one is fantastic. Smooth as glass and resists fingerprints.
If you're comfortable tinkering with the hardware, you could try replacing the charger port part.

http://www.amazon.com/Replace-DISPLAY-Screen-Digitizer-Optimus/dp/B00BIZMX38
Its actually a fun process to replace the screen.
I bought this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HFMWZCC/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 without any issues.
There is speculation about whether or not any of these replacement screens are Gorilla Glass or not. I personally use screen protectors anyway so that wasn't a concern to me.
Color quality is excellent as is touch response. The only (minor) issue is that there was no filter for the LED notification light, so that ended up being extremely bright.
I bought it from seller "Injured Gadgets", because that seller ships from the USA. The same item can also ship from China, so you have to check which seller you're getting it from if you want it sooner rather than later (and assuming you're in USA after all).
Buy the back case from amazon its only like 20 bucks brooooo its so easy to replace Here you go and to remove it
There's also the Seidio Convert case, which is significantly more bulky but also $50. They basically took a Seidio Surface case and added a layer of shock-absorbing silicone then a plastic exoskeleton to hold the silicone on. I would HIGHLY recommend it if you have the money.
It also comes with a belt holder that you can remove the small clip from to basically add protection on the front if you're extra paranoid and a screen protector.
This is the closest I found. I just got the case in myself and it is really nice i didn't get the belt clip with it though. link
I got this yesterday in the mail. The initial impression is one of high quality materials. I cannot believe how nice this thing feels. Not exactly what you are after but I thought I would share.
Album made by my workmate
true true. It does require an external power source, since the phone physically cant provide it. But I could see someone making a controller holder that could hold a battery pack, that would snap onto your phone, while also holding the controller.
They do make some very small, portable power packs. like this one: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005X1Y7I2/
For example you could buy this: http://buy.thegameklip.com/products/gameklip-casemount and then attach that battery pack to the back of that game controller klip. Not super elegant, but it would work.
Iconic Gaurdian. I have one for my nexus 4, and liked it so much that I bought one for my new S4.
http://www.amazon.com/Ionic-GUARDIAN-Armor-Google-Nexus/dp/B00A06Z41E
I have an Anker Astro Slim 2 which is pretty awesome... gives me an extra day or two of charge while on the go and it's almost exactly the same profile as the Nexus 4 so it fits behind it in a pocket without any hassle :)
Actually I JUST bought this one about a week ago. Took it on one run so far, successful. Tight fit so it's not going anywhere.
I recently replaced my screen because of same problem. I used this assembly to replace it. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00HFMWZCC It was surprisingly easy.
Been using this screen protector with a case and it fits just fine.

I have the Poetic Slim Hard Case and I would describe it as quite minimal.
I ordered this one about a month or so ago from Amazon. Rounded edges and 10 points. The diffuser sucks, but is not a deal breaker. It doesnt have the nice fade the original does. It is gorilla glass. Been in my pocket everyday, no scratches. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L4MF8XC/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_OR2gub13JZ9AY
I have this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Ionic-GUARDIAN-Armor-Google-Nexus/dp/B00A06Z41E/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
Adds some bulk to the phone, but I got it because of the cost and the fact that it is, in fact, a very sturdy case. No regrets thus far.
I've been wondering about this issue myself. I did a quick google search and one thread on XDA said it might drain the battery a tad bit faster, but nothing too noticeable.
The big issue, however, is that once the screen goes off the NFC radio turns off. This means that if you turn your screen on and unlock your phone again, the tag will be read again. This might cause some issues depending on how you set up your NFC tags.
Also, fyi, there is an updated iOttie here. It doesn't have the bottom feet though if that's an issue for you.
