Lol yeah! I normally root my phone on first or second day and when friends come to know about it, meri toh hawaa ho jati hai! ? because most people know the term rooting but think that its a big jugaad and i have done something extraordinary by rooting brand new phone. ?? xda is like a breath of fresh air for people who know how to about android and stuff.

dint got warranty letter

hi guys,

i bought nexus 5 from india playstore but i did not got any warranty letter atleast a bill,so how can i get fix if in future i got any problem with my nexus 5 with out paymeny bill/warranty letter
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Don't worry. Call the Google Play Store support line for any warranty claims or RMA.
[Nexus 5 General] dODo_gooner:
Hi,

I ordered my nexus 5 32gb black from playstore yesterday. How many days does it take to ship to mumbai?

I already have ordered nillkin 9h+ protector and spigen ultra hybrid case,

Just hope that UAG also make a case for nexus 5.

I had a UAG case for both s3 and iphone4s
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
It will take a max of 2-3 days once you get the order &/or shipping confirmation.
[Nexus 5 General] Web_E:
Your question is already replied yesterday. Check notification on top right or go back few pages. This is third time you have posted the same thing.

Here is again:

You don't need any bill or warranty. Call up google play store, they will initiate replacement process. They will pick up, verify the warranty claim is legit and replace with a new device which will be sent to you. You don't have to bear any charges.

After a year, when warranty is over you can repair in LG shops and of course you need to pay.
[Nexus 5 General] jitin02:
Guys need some thing to clear...... Can't find it any where do asked

1 if I unlock my bootloader will I receive official updates (ota and all)

2 when I lock it back..... Will everything be same as the new phone (no side effects or things I lose????)

3 any side effects??

Please guide........
[Nexus 5 General] Puneet.Maan:
Not a problem, You will get ota updates. :)

[Nexus 5 General] jitin02:
:eek::eek: so it's not the case like Sony ??
[Nexus 5 General] anshmiester78900:
No
[Nexus 5 General] Silver.Shadow:
Would you guys recommend this or the Moto X if both are available around the same price?
[Nexus 5 General] droid@xda:
1. You will get updates. OTA updates are only affected if you install custom ROM.

2. Yes. Everything will be same. Unlocked bootloader won't cause any change in behavior in first place. It just enables modification to system partition.

3. No side effect if you know what you are doing and flash only the stuff you think right and with proper instructions.

---------- Post added at 02:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 PM ----------

Nexus 5 all the way. Far superior hardware and dev support than Moto X.
[Nexus 5 General] freak744:
If u bought from Play store, by default, u get a written receipt/bill on behalf of Google Play IN

U can use that as a proof of purchase. Else, inside the box you have a small warranty booklet which has a warranty page in it. U can use that as well.

Press THANKS if I helped you :)
[Nexus 5 General] :
While locking the bootloader again you have reset the tamper flag that will be set when you first unlock it! There's a thread in General Section which deals with this. Search

I had a HTC One X for the past 1.5 years and sold it today to get a Nexus 5.

Would you suggest getting one from the play store or the local market? Anyone who ordered from play store has any issues ?

[Nexus 5 General] android_master:
Believe me, the best way is to get it from a LG Store (they are in plenty in India), almost all of them (in big cities atleast) have got new batches 401, you can personally check for buttons,speaker grills and almost everything right there. It is the best option.
[Nexus 5 General] sam razzy:
How to check whether I got the 401 batch phone ?
[Nexus 5 General] fanil123:
Yes, I completely agree. Buy from LG store.

I bought 401k batch form LG store for 33k with 6 month EMI which is interest free.

There is plenty of 401k batch available on LG stores.

From Google you will end up paying full 33k and will have to wait few days for delivery and you will receive the refurbished (used and defective item which has been rectified) 310k, 311k, 312k model.

There is 5% cash back offer on SBI credit/debit card until today.

HDFC and ICICI credit cards are offering interest free 3, 6, 9 months EMI option.

---------- Post added at 11:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:39 AM ----------

Google will start supplying new 401k batch from Feb only.
[Nexus 5 General] sam razzy:
Would you mind telling me how to check whether I'm using new or old one ? How to check the 401 batch code in my phone ?
[Nexus 5 General] anshmiester78900:
Guys I got my N5 from USA but it's motherboard got crashed so i had to send it back to relatives in USA now its being replaced , but the problem is how to get it back shipped to India as last time relatives brought itself with them. And will it get caught in customs ?
[Nexus 5 General] shubh_007:
Check the starting of your device's serial number. If it is 401 it is 2014 january batch. For the serial number look at the box of the device.
[Nexus 5 General] fanil123:
Go to LG store and check for the box to ensure 401k model.

You cannot do the same with Google store.

Dead Pixel 312K

Hi Guys bought my Nexus 5 on Jan 22nd bought on 24th and have one dead pixel :( why LG why??

Mailed Google about problem send me the RMA form now and praying for the next replacement to be fine...:(
[Nexus 5 General] Ashutosh1313:
That sucks dude. I know how frustrating it is. :(

Best of luck though for RMA. :good:
[Nexus 5 General] shadowdevil:
Yup..all fate...:crying:
[Nexus 5 General] ImSherlocked:
Check the box. It must be having double sealing tapes. Mine had it.
[Nexus 5 General] shadowdevil:
Sealed box only..fresh one..bad luck..:(

So Google will send only the replacement after receiving the RMA package?

Wait continues...
[Nexus 5 General] sam razzy:
Give me the link for good case?
[Nexus 5 General] fanil123:
Thanks buddy. MX Player works like a charm. :good:

Its disappointing, though, that the stock video player is not able to play HD videos. I hope Google will fix the laggy video player in the next android update.

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 PM ----------

I can actually see two dead pixels.

Hopefully you will get a defect free replacement after the RMA process.

Nexus 5-old or new

Can you guys help me figure out if this is the new speaker grille design or the old one ? The serial number on the box reads 401KP...

It looks like the old one to me. Is this what's available in India ?
[Nexus 5 General] fanil123:
Yes, the speaker grills are larger.

Enjoy.
[Nexus 5 General] sam razzy:
How is the sound compared to the old one ? Is there any rattling sound on your nexus while shaking ?

installing Custom kernel also breaks OTA, removing apps from system partition also breaks OTA. Check OTA helpdesk - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2523217

If you lock it, unlocking again will require data wipe. ( there is an app bootunlocker that can lock and unlock BL from phone [This is after first unlock and gaining root], in this case no wipe is required)

Nexus 5 Google Play Store Delivery Time

Hi Friends,

Its my first post in XDA and just ordered my first smartphone the Nexus 5.

Ordered on 28/01/2014 12:20 PM. How long does play store take to deliver it to Mumbai?

Help Pls!!!

Guys i am having serious problem!!!

from past few days when i am receiving a call then he call screen doesnt show up but i can hear the ringtone and truecaller screen. I cant attend the call now..

then if i dial to any phone the call screen is not popping up but the call is getting connected, cannot disconnect.

help me what to do with this. resetting the phone will make me hell of ajob for taking backups and reinstalling.
[Nexus 5 General] droid@xda:
There's no support here if you install aftermarket app like truecaller which interferes with system functionality. Uninstall it and try. If problem still persist, clear cache and dalvik cache.

If contacts you want to merge have exact same name, then there are plenty of apps to let you merge them in one go. One such app I can remember is contact+.

just bought nexus 5. getting only 3.15hrs of screen on time :( any suggestion ?
[Nexus 5 General] sam razzy:
I think it needs some recycle
[Nexus 5 General] droid@xda:
Go to advance settings of wifi and uncheck 'scanning always available' option.

Go to location. Click on Google location reporting and turn it off.

Prefer manual brightness adjustments than automatic.

Turn NFC off if you don't require it.

These changes will significantly improve SOT and overall battery backup.

If you still want more backup, flash custom kernel having out of box battery optimization, turn WiFi, Bluetooth on only when you require.
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
you will get a device which will either be new or be refurbished..hope you get a new device of latest batch..:)

Guys I'm getting a new phone through RMA in USA as i had my relatives brought it from there . How many days can it take to be delivered at my relatives house in US ?
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
you will have to calibrate the battery..I suggest you to hard reset the phone..after that,fully charge your phone and use it till it switches off automatically..then again charge it fully..repeat this 10-12 times and you will be getting around 4-4.5hrs SOT..if you are familiar with rooting then try some battery friendly kernel..;)

Probably trying going to the LG Service Centre!
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Yes. Call google again. They have a call centre and all the time new person picks the phone. Try to argue. They will definitely replace it easily. Talk to indian support though, not the us one. I have replaced my phone 2 times easily.
[Nexus 5 General] madnish30:
So it's been a week, interesting so far. Was curious to know what sort of battery life are you guys getting? I'm managing 3-3.5 hours of SOT. Constantly pushing email, Twitter and WhatsApp, always on 3G/WiFi. However, Google Now and Location services are always off and hardly any apps running in the background.

To be very honest, I was expecting a little more, any tips for increasing battery life?

Would be great to hear your battery performance and usage.
[Nexus 5 General] shubh_007:
Have a look at the previous page. Several people have suggested several ways to increase battery life. Try them all.

And personally, I think it make no sense to stop Nexus as this brand has just started gaining mass appeal and its moto is actually, quite different than play edition and even motorola's moto x and moto g. They don't offer you top of the line specs at affordable price.

Hey guyz,

This is going to be my first nexus device. I'm really confused between the white and the black versions. The black always seems to be sold out on the play store.

[Nexus 5 General] Android_Sheriff:
Thanks. That should clear up most of the confusion.

Is there any price difference between this and the playstore version? Its currently 28,999 on the PS.

What do you mean the "new 4K batch". Can you please clarify. What difference does it make?

Edit:

I get it now. Doesn't make much difference I guess.

Look here.

Also can someone suggest any LG store in Mumbai, preferably along the western line. Thanks.
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
Black is sold out..so that means?..that means its the sought after one..and the material on the back isnt same either..with black color u get a soft touch back and this runs to the sides as well..whereas in white the back is solid and the sides are glossy black..and personally I hate the white earpiece on the front..looks like a "bindi" that Indian women wear..phone with a bindi :/..

And the performance might slightly differ..coz wen i was a kid i read that dark colors conduct heat more than light colors so white color might not get hot easily..alright ignore this last para ;)
[Nexus 5 General] Android_Sheriff:
Ok, So I've decided to go with the black one. However, there seems to be a problem with debit cards and especially ICICI debit cards. I've learnt that debit cards are charges twice and the amount is then refunded. Is this true? What happens if I don't have that much amount in my account? This is really pathetic from Google. Not Cool!:mad:

So I finally bought Nexus 5 and was searching for cases. Spigen Neo Hybrid,Slim fit and Ultra Hybrid looks interesting. Also anyone has bought Ringke Slim ? I read about it causing some scratches around the edges of the phone?

And why is there such a price difference between the prices of Amazon.in and in.mobilefun.com... Around 600/-. Any other cases that you guys recommend ?
[Nexus 5 General] nishthecooldude:
Am using Both Neo Hybrid Satin Silver - looks amazing and Ringke Fusion Black - looks great and slim...

Ringke Fusion not causing any scratches till now...Its own transparent plastic may get some scratches after prolonged use which is ok....

Both are great and fullfil their own purpose...

Ringke Fusion is slim lightweight customizable...

While Neo Hybrid feels slightly bulky and up market :p

(Am using black color sides are not glossy...White color may get scratches on all tight fit cases due to its glossy sides )
