Official Bumper Case (Bright Red)

So its been almost 2 weeks since I've had the phone and the official bumper case (Red). The colour from the bumper case has started fading, just like as if the red colour has been coated on top of the black case. Also, it takes the colour from the pants and stuff pretty fast.

Really disappointed with this. Anyone else experiencing this?

Can't believe a 2.5k case from Google will be of this quality :banghead:

Hey I was the one who wrote the earlier post regarding this issue.....I have contacted google play once again for better clarification and they told that since you bought your device from google play, if any problem occurs due to manufacturing fault then you need to contact google and yeaa u can contact them within the warranty period and not just 15 days and they will replace your device but if any damage is done by you to your device and u need to get it repair then u need to contact lg....I have asked her to write all those things in the follow up email and i m just wauting for it now.

Seriously google has messed with their policies in india

---------- Post added at 03:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:46 PM ----------

Here is the follow up email that i got

Hello Varun,

Thank you for contacting Google.

As discussed, Google provides 1 year of warranty for the devices sold through Play Store and accidental damages are not covered under limited warranty.

For any repairs (accidental damage), please contact the manufacturer of the device LG at 18001809999.

Please reply if you've any questions.

Thanks,

Mrinalini

[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
No, no rattles so far but the button does have some play which is perfectly normal I guess. Otherwise it would be too tight. I put it thru a pixel test again an hour back. So far so good.

Where do these guys say that they will replace the set after the 15 day period? They will offer warranty support yes, but that does not mean replacement. They may direct us to a LG service centre for repairs/replacement. I am truly hoping that this exchange/RMA holds for 1 year. Even better, I am hoping there wont be a need to use the RMA or warranty. :D
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
They don't say that on google page anywhere directly. Though they haven't denied it either. People have been able to get rma even after 2 months of purchase as I told you earlier so.. anyways, I bought it on 20th and got my phone on 22nd so my rma period as you say is 15 days... i will be applying for rma on 10th most probably and if they do have that 15 period rma thing, my application for rma will be denied right ? as I got on 22nd and applying on 10th (that's 19days including 22nd/10th). So, let's see.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Yeah, do let us know how it goes. Good luck.

Like I said, it'll be great if they have the RMA policy running for the term of the warranty.
[Nexus 5 General] varuntis1993:
Man when I talked to her she said that they will replace it even after 15 days and also the follow up email says " google provides 1yr warranty" and not lg....I think it's sufficient and I don't need any other clarification regarding this issue and we will get to know it soon when [MENTION=5398512]Seadra[/MENTION] applies for RMA.

My SBI Visa Debit Card was declined by Google Wallet saying 'invalid credit card'..anybody else dere with SBI Debit Card who paid using it?:confused:
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
I've used Apple products extensively, iPhones, iPods, and my bro has a MacBook Pro. Never owned an iPad.

Though Apple makes some beautiful stuff, the new iPad Air should be a beauty, all I will say is that I prefer Android.

I agree, IOS is not the best way for us 'droid guys.

SBI Visa Debit Card Solution

To use SBI Visa Debit Card in Google Wallet you can TRY to follow these steps -

1. Login in the SBI Card website

2. Find International Payment Option ,, and ACTIVATE IT

3. Add the Card in Google wallet

this method should work ,,, but there are different SBI cards so :fingers-crossed: ,,

Hey guys!! I want to buy few NFC tags. Anyone of you using it let me know which one to buy.Cheers.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
This may sound like a dumb question, so please pardon me. Is there a way to get a 'Restart' option on the pop up screen that appears after you press the power button? I hate the fact that to restart the phone, I have to switch it off and press the power button to restart it.

There are some features of Samsung's Touchwiz interface that I sorely miss on the Nexus. This is one of them.

VDO recording

Guys, need help.. Nexus noob here...

My vdo recording is not initialising.. Every other parts of the cam works good... Still, Panorama, Photosphere.. Everything... But vdo recording doesnt start.. I press the red button but it doesnt start...

Nope, no option unless & until u root the device.

Also u will miss more functions from touchwiz later... :p
[Nexus 5 General] SGTABHI:
[MENTION=852372]razr[/MENTION]

Root the device...Use xposed modules...

That way you don't need to have bloatware into your device

...Just the stuff you want :D
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Thanks. Which is why the Nexus 5 is my backup handset. ;) Seriously whatever you might say about Samsung's Touchwiz it does make the phone easier to use compared to a vanilla Android OS. And in the Note 3 it hardly introduces any screen lag or affect responsiveness. I find both the Note 3 and Nexus 5 equally fast and responsive.

About rooting - Is there any e-fuse or other root detection mechanism in the Nexus 5, like for e.g. the irreversible Knox status flag that is present in the Note 3?
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Press power button for 10 seconds+
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Hmm, any traps laid by LG to detect root and void the warranty like what Samsung has done with the S4, Note 3 and Tab 10.1 2014 edition?
[Nexus 5 General] RohanM:
Nope. there is no such thing. thats why it's nexus, no triangle, u can always go full stock using factory image...

even google can't detect u have rooted !!
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Yes that works in most phones. But its only for unresponsive apps or when the phone hangs. Was looking at a 'clean reboot' option if you know what I mean.
[Nexus 5 General] RohanM:
that will be a hard reboot.. forcefully. in case of hang or stuck it's good.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
That's good. Thanks for the guidance man. :good: Will root the thing eventually.

Just bought the Nexus 5 32GB Black

Guys,

Just wanted to let all you guys know that i got my Nexus 5 32GB Black a couple of hours ago. Was just wandering in Viviana Mall in Thane and thought of asking the fellows in Paragon Mobiles whether they have this handset.. And to my utter surprise they had it in stock.

Bought it for 33999/-. Checked out play store and saw that the delivery time was unbearable..So it did not matter paying 1000 bucks extra..

Would suggest folks from Thane to check out this shop..Who knows you might be able to get one...

Cheers,

Gokul

I can vouch for my handset. Set it on a pixel tester/fixer for 1.5 hours this afternoon and then examined the display. All ok so far. Haven't used it at all to make/receive calls. I was only interested in testing the LCD. :) I charged it to 100% and it's back in the box now. Fingers crossed. Hope the damn thing runs fault free for at least 1 more year.

Problem Selecting Network Mode .

Guyz ,, Been using Nexus 5 for past 4 days ,, until today was connected to wi-Fi so had no issues .

But When in the Select Network Mode having option of 3G , 2G , LTE , i an unable to choose ANY OF THE OPTION .

Contacted the service provider ( Tata Docomo 3G) and all ,, they say all is well and activated ALSO i have Full Signal Strength .

UNABLE TO USE 3G ,,, is it the device defect ,, Any Suggestion ,, Factory Reset has been tried :crying: .. RMA ????:confused:
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Sadly I can't right now. I am in Jammu and my default address on google wallet is of Panchkula. It's impossible to rma for jammu address as I am about to leave for panchkula on 10th. So only after that.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
What does the network indicator in the status bar show? 2G/2.5G (denoted by 'E') or 3G? You will not see LTE because there's no LTE data on Tata DoCoMo. You should be able to select 2G/3G/LTE. If you select LTE it will automatically choose the best mode of operation
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Firstly try the handset on some other SIM , if it works then it's probably the network itself which have got problems. I am using Aircel's, reliance's 3G from a week on my handset. No problems whatsoever. Got like 1.4mb/s(11mbps) on reliance's 3g network. Awesome! A friend of mine who has samsung quattro was only able to reach 400kb/s lol. It was probably a device limitation as if the same SIM is in my phone the speeds are no problems on mine at all.
[Nexus 5 General] SamBG:
Dats y i would recommend to pay 1000bucks more and buy it hand to hand.!!

U can even check for defects or so at the same moment.bcoz if someone is lucky enough to get a defective one he may have to wait for another week or two

The network indicator sometimes shows E ( even when selected 2G / 3G ) ,, but it keeps dropping in like 1 - 2 seconds ,,,, And when i choose any option it network mode it automatically gets deselected and f*cking 3G won't work ..:crying::crying:

---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

Dude the APN settings are all well and good :rolleyes: ,,, The Customer Care guy was like asking the Device Name ,, and provided settings for like mms , 3G and 2G .

And the Signal is almost always full inside my house but No Choosing Network available ..

it's like unable to select any option ,, they get DESELECTED AUTOMATICALLY :crying::crying::crying::crying:
[Nexus 5 General] mani0008:
Have you tried anyother SIM? From other operators like Airtel Vodafone?
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
This is certainly not the phone. There may be an issue with the network in your area. Use a friend's micro SIM preferably from another network to check.

One more thing - have you got a micro SIM or did you get a normal SIM 'cut' to micro SIM dimensions? If yes, that is known to cause issues at times. The cutters don't do the job with precision and the contacts get misaligned. Get a new micro SIM from Tata DOCOMO and try.
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Mine once showed E and continously dropped E. Tried 3G and same with that.. came "H" and then kept dropping until I realized I didn't had any pack or recharge on my SIM LOLOL. Did the recharge and all good lol.

[Nexus 5 General] Sparx75:
Airtel's 3G doesn't work for me. It gets deselected too right away. I think its because I had my sim cut into a microsim. Gonna get a new micro sim next week maybe and that'll hopefully solve my problem.

Guys If you getting Samsung Note 3 for say Rs.35000 Total new with warranty, Will you buy over Nexus 5 or LG G2 ? Please answer..
[Nexus 5 General] darkshadow246:
No

Note 3 is too big

Both have similar specs and N5 looks better
[Nexus 5 General] jithendra194:
#1 no, I wouldn't.

#2 no development for exynos version, and I'll be bored eventually.

#3 it'll start lagging for no freaking reason because it has touchwiz.

Pros-

#1 camera

#2 battery

#3 features which we'll never use.

Did I miss anything?

This is just my opinion. Had lots of experience with exynos devices.
[Nexus 5 General] H4CK_H0PP3R:
Note 3 has good battery life & also getting 32 GB internal Memory along with removable battery & SD card support upto 64 GB , + Camera produces good images with 13 MP , Definately i hate samsung but getting it for cheapest price almost to Nexus 5 thats why i am confused now,Maybe can get for 33K .
[Nexus 5 General] darkshadow246:
Didn't Samsung put a new anti root feature or something like that in the note 3 and s4?

Not sure

A 32 GB is more than enough storage for me

You don't need to worry. Just do the right thing and everything will be ok.

I would strongly suggest that your brother (as the card holder) calls up Google Play Support (in India, or whichever regional store you placed the order with) and tells them to deduct the amount within 10 days as he's moving back to India. They will complete the transaction.

Trust me, if your bro returns back without the payment being deducted they will certainly send someone to your doorstep demanding the money. They have the delivery address on record. Nobody overlooks a loss of nearly Rs 30k or more. Please don't get into these kind of embarrassing scenes. Just be honest with them and all will be ok.

Any news on 4.4.1 OTA Update in India ?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
It's going as per a staggered country/region wise roll out. Don't hold your breath. It will come eventually.

To me these bug fixes/updates are as exciting as, well, a Windows OS update from Microsoft that is automatically downloaded and installed.

I find this frenzy about updates for Android and other mobile OSes like IOS rather puzzling.

Enjoy your device in the meantime.
[Nexus 5 General] amkush:
Thanks ! that was some consolation :silly:. It is a well justified concern and not frenzy as you call it, as I am not able to use my N5 as a smartphone due to problems with my exchange account synchronization, I don't give a damn about some gimmicky camera fix etc but the real reasons for buying a smartphone. So yes I am eagerly waiting for the update which will improve usability of N5 for me and I will not have to carry a backup phone for my business related work :o
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
The frenzy is not you bro, but in general. People post several questions about when an update will be rolled out...and/or why it has been delayed. Don't get me wrong.

According to reports the 4.4.1 update has the following fixes:

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/5...tkat-kot49e-features-nexus5-nexus4-nexus7.htm

It includes one fix related to Exchange - "The default email client in Nexus 5 not syncing with an exchange server bug is also fixed now."

Don't know if it will fix your Exchange server and mobile client issue. BTW, I use an app called RoadSync by Dataviz. Check it out.
