<snicker> I just ordered another Google Nexus 4. LG is gearing up to produce a new batch, for which the estimated shipping date of 2 - 3 weeks matches the now-estimated release date of Android4.2.2, which is purported to contain a less-buggy Qualcomm wifi driver, and patches to the buggy 4.2.1 wifi and bluetooth code. Plus, it wouldn't surprise me if LG hasn't tweaked a manufacturing issue or two that I believe existed in their first production run.
Hey, what have I got to lose? Google pays the return shipping if the phone is broken. At the very least I get some more writing material. --Doug On Tue, Feb 5, 2013 at 6:19 AM, Douglas Roberts <[email protected]>wrote: > Well, the Parrot Farm is recovering nicely from the small neutron bomb > detonation that temporarily knocked us off the air yesterday, mid-email. > Fortunately, the WiFi on the GNB (Google Neutron Bomb) was defective, and > so we only received a short burst. > > Oh, and thanks to the Android Police (and not The Google), we received the > answer as to when the WiFi and bluetooth problems with the Nexus 4 will be > fixed: http://things-linux.blogspot.com/2013/02/what-is-evil.html > > --Doug > > > On Mon, Feb 4, 2013 at 11:31 PM, Jochen Fromm <[email protected]> wrote: > >> That was a good one ;-) If you see a group of people with fancy glasses >> approaching your house, then it is indeed time to grab up your belongings >> and run.
