  • I'm having issues with my N4 recently in regards to my signal. I'm on Giffgaff and for the most part it's fine all over the place but in the last few weeks I'm getting no signal at all where I normally would do. Ordered a new SIM to no avail so I've no idea (running stock Lollipop). Help/suggestions as to what I can do?

    Also having major battery issues; one second it'll tell me it's at 70%, shutdown unexpectedly only for me to turn it back on and it's actually 2%. Half hour on charge and it's at 100%!

    To be honest I'm tempted to finally root the thing and put a custom ROM on, suggestions? Paranoid Android looks alright, I liked 4.4.4 before all of this came along.

  • I think N4s have an issue with their batteries - or something related to power anyway.

    You're actually lucky you managed to salvage it from the unexpected shutdown, mine did that and now it just wont charge. I've changed the battery and done various re-sets but its basically dead. So it might be that causing the issue rather than the Lollipop update

  • Yeah I did a quick Google which seemed to suggest something battery related, so I went and ordered a brand new genuine one. Put it in and initial signs aren't positive as I still get no signal at my desk.

    I think the end is nigh which is a shame as I do love this phone, served me well for two years until all of this.
