You can send to LG repair 50 bucks lor.. But if you want we can share shipping.. Will take a long time though. My power button also dying, I wanna repair but lazy to make a trip down to LG.

Nvm ba. I just buy that part and try to fix it. I have a feeling the power button problem will comes back after a few months anyway so no point wasting so much to fix it. Waiting 11-18 days for it to come!

Maybe I try to take apart my Nexus 4 tmr or soon to see if replacing it is easy or hard...

LG qc really sux.. Makes me worried if they make the nextnexus

Yeah... I think Google is afraid that Samsung is getting too big and Android has to rely on Samsung that why they pick LG instead. But still they can pick Sony or HTC. Why LG?..zzz

Where did these speculations come from?

All of them are baseless speculations, base on past history, Google never once refresh products at Google I/O...

Going by past trends, a Google device is only released once per year(a nexus 4 will last a year before the next phone is released, same for tablets..).. Which means the only possible product being released at I/O is a new tablet..

I'm just summing up all the rumors that's been speculating. Haha

Yes..... Why LG........

Sony is developer friendly, HTC builds solid design.. LG simply has nothing to offer.. Maybe costs?

No need to get paranoid with conspiracy theories.....they will change the manufacturer based on whoever offers them a better deal and closest to what Google needs at that point in time.

Only those crackpots say what Samsung too big....they're both making money for each other.

If it's HTC... I hope they don't put a camera hump on the back.. I hate camera humps and that's one of the main reasons I chose the N4 over the Gnex.

And oh god, no plasticky Samsuck phones either.

As for Sony.. Please support OTG if really is Sony..

After it arrives you mind taking a picture of it compared to the original ones? Also mind telling me if your power button is easier to press. Scared mine is the switch problem, not the button problem.

Anyone here has done an RMA before? I have contacted Google regarding RMAing the device and they have agreed to replace it for me but I'm unsure of how to pack the items and also how to ship it to them. Any help here? Thanks a lot!

Anyone experience this problem? I flash my N4 back to factory image but when I power on my phone, my IMEI not detected and Baseband shows N/A.
