The rumored Nexus 4 was leaked again this morning but this time, the leak was from evleaks twitter account, who has been pretty accurate with leaks from quite sometime. He leaked the front of the phone and confirmed its specifications. It appears that the next Nexus phone will be called LG Nexus 4 and from the front, it looks quite similar to the current Nexus phone.

* Big battery
* Stylus
* Fast processor
* 2GB RAM
* Latest Android OS

Stock firmwares are important when you want to roll back to the factory state. One scenario is when you have to use the phone’s warranty, which gets voided when you root your Note II, install custom CWM or a custom ROM like this on your phone. Follow the below given steps to download and install the stock ROM on your Samsung Galaxy Note 2.
The LG Optimus 2x runs Android 2.2.1, and offers up a four inch LCD display showing at 800 x 480 resolution. You’ll also get an eight megapixel rear-facing camera that records video in full 1080p, as well as a burst shooting mode, a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera for video conferencing, eight gigs of onboard memory (though you can up that to thirty two with a micro SD card, since it has a slot for that), a mini HDMI port, 3G, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, a digital compass, Google Maps with GPS, MP3 player, support for Flash 10.1, a variety of games and other applications geared toward getting the most out of the Tegra 2 processor running this phone, and a battery that yields nearly eight hours of talk time.
