This is a nice minimalistic notification based weather app.

I'm just curious, but how do you use so much data?
I can barely get over half a gig of data since I use wifi at home

Combination of Twitter, YouTube, browsing, forums, tethering, and occasional music streaming. But before I would have to 'work hard ' to get to 4GBs a month. As of late I've had one streaming service or another, like Crunchyroll (anime) or right now, NHL Game center.

I've never been a case guy, phones are made to look amazing and I've appreciated that and prefered to have my phones sans case.. but with the Nexus 4 being glass I've been looking around.

This one looks the best, by far but isn't available to be shipped on Amazon.ca

Looks nice. There has to somewhere online to get it.

I'm beginning to dislike this bumper. Makes the phone just a bit too wide. I'm going to hot up Cross Iron tonight and get the Zagg skin put on. Front, back and sides.

I'll post pics after.

Maybe they can help you out with your Tapatalk settings too!

I've never understood why it bothers people so much. But anyway, it's taken care of.

I got my Zagg skin put on last night. Just the front. I can't get a clear enough picture, but it looks great. Adds some grip and not noticeable. There is a small bubble in the bottom right, but I'll wait until the end of the day to see if it goes away.

i haven't looked through all 29 pages, but has anyone been able to switch on LTE on rogers?

I ended up ordering this case from amazon.ca, we'll see how it works out. I really want to show off that back though.

Thinking of this case, but I like the one MMF posted if the back clear plastic wasn't windshield thick.

I put this in for pre-order yesterday and while it said it wouldn't be available until February 15th, I received a notification today saying it was shipped.

Maybe worth a try if you want one, but the $10 shipping to Canada is a little steep.

Edit: scratch that. Apparently the company printed up tracking numbers in advance to make for quicker shipping when it does arrive.

Curious about that as well but that's probably another topic in itself.

I'm guessing the front Zagg only was $25 with labor?

[MrMastodonFarm]

My Nexus 4 just left Winnipeg, was hoping there was an outside chance it would arrive tomorrow but looks like it'll arrive right on time Monday afternoon.

I had the same case for my iPhone. The clear part got scratched way too easily. It looks awful now.

Yes. Booth in Crossiron Mills mall. Go through the food court entrance (east side of the mall) and take a left. Past the T-Booth.

It'll arrive in Calgary tomorrow afternoon, and then be "out for delivery" on Monday. At that point you can call UPS and ask them to give the driver specific instructions. Ie: ring door bell, leave in the back yard, etc. It won't require a signature, so they'll just leave it either in the mailbox or against your front door.

If anyone wants a new sealed in box Nexus4, shoot me a PM, will let it go for $420.

[RedMileDJ]

I paid $414.93 for my 16GB Nexus 4. This is included the bumper, shipping and taxes.

Assuming you bought it without the bumper, then you paid $394.79. This includes shipping and tax. So you're going to try to make $25.21 off of selling it.

As you know, there is a buy/sell forum for selling stuff. You did make a post trying to sell your Nexus. Should probably remove your post from this thread.

I don't think anyone is desperate enough for it, as you seem to suggest, that they'll pay the extra $25 to have it right away. I got mine in less than a week.

[BigNumbers]

I paid for the express shipping, cost me $450... Was just looking to see if anyone wanted it before I send it back... Sorry didnt mean to upset.
