Some issues

Hey all,

I'm new on this forum.

I ordered mine on 14th Dec'13 and received shipping mail today at 00:10 am. It says tracking number would take 24 hours to activate, but it is already activated.

I clicked on Gati's order number link and assured delivery date is of today. So Waiting for it.

Everything is fine on this front. ( touch wood!!!)....my issue is my HDFC credit card charged me twice for this transaction once on 14th dec'13 when I ordered it and again on 3rd jan'14. I called them they said it can be fraud transaction so they hotlisted by card and told me to send dispute form.(that i did). Anyone else who is facing same issue !!!

Regards,

Hemant
[Nexus 5 General] anirudhnyg:
There was nothing to worry .. If you had seen in the unbilled section on net banking it would have showed you that you were not charged on 14th .. That was just a authorisation ...

the same thing happened. To me also.. Got sms on the day i made the order and again on the day it was shipping .. But was charged only once

[Nexus 5 General] the_original_hash:
finally..!!!

had ordered it on 14th and received the shipped mail..!!

hope i get it soon..:fingers-crossed:

one question...does bluedart work on sundays??
[Nexus 5 General] ImSherlocked:
I don't think they work on Sundays. Their tracking system is even worse than speed post.
[Nexus 5 General] anuseb89:
I ordered on 31 dec..32 gb black..and today is the delivery date as per FedEx.. Hope my next post in xda will be from it..

Ps::the wait is too much.. :D

from which courier ur N5 is coming??

---------- Post added at 02:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:26 PM ----------

hey guys anybody knows that from which city our shipment shipped yesterday.
[Nexus 5 General] TJKV:
Mine started by saying it shipped from Bhiwandi to Mumbai at 2am this morning, last status update was at 5am (in transit in Mumbai). I am guessing it's flying over to my city now. Courier here is Gati btw. The tracking page says assured delivery date is today :)
[Nexus 5 General] sameer8019:
wow congratulations u r lucky. my N5 also shipped bt i dont know from which city n whats d status of shipment, BTW my courier is bluedart. my status on bluedart is "tracking number not found"
[Nexus 5 General] TJKV:
It will be originating from Bhiwadi for everyone, the whole batch of 2500 handsets from the 27th Dec import would have come to the same place. Which city you in?
[Nexus 5 General] anirudhnyg:
Same for me ... Mine was also shipped around 2am today morning ... Via blue dart... Mine also says tracking number not found .... Any body else who got their nexus from dart had this problem ?

PS I am in Bangalore.... [MENTION=944229]tjv[/MENTION] when you get it. please let us know if your nexus is the new (slightly) redesigned version ? Like this

Thanks

The wait is killing me
[Nexus 5 General] TJKV:
IIRC many people said the same thing, the tracking number never got activated. Hence I was surprised when mine started showing updates. Guess it is a bluedart thing, dw about it. Yeah I'm in blore too, let's see who gets it first :P

Don't worry too much about those "redesigns", they are more like manufacturing tolerances.

radio version

Hi Guys,

Those who have the phone, can you please post your radio version? Settings->About Phone->Baseband Version

My signal reception is poor. So I want to make sure if it is a s/w issue or if it is due to antenna. I bought my phone from US. Thats why i want to make sure.

Thanks in advance.

Same here..Tracking Number not activated yet...Blue Dart doesnt work on Sundays.....So I guess, we shall receive it either by Monday evenin or may be even Tuesday....
[Nexus 5 General] atishey23:
Had to pay 1k extra to purchase from a local dealer...But I was saved from all that confusion of online payment :p.

I got screen guard + a back cover
[Nexus 5 General] nexus32:
Anybody lucky enough to have been received their Nexus from Playstore today, Please update about the batch of the device received...

The guys at the Indian customer care says that they dont have any information about which batch is being shipped and as per them they have'nt received the new batches and they must be shipping old batches it self...Which i thing is wrong...!!
[Nexus 5 General] freak744:
exactly my point!

Does FedEx work on sunday ?????

[Nexus 5 General] atishey23:

[Nexus 5 General] rootSr.:
Received today 32 black. around 2pm - FedEx
[Nexus 5 General] freak744:
It is absolutely Normal.....

Even my order went on hold indefinitely. That actually happens when they are finally ready to ship you an order but find that there are simply not enough funds in your a/c for making a 'second authorization'.

Happened to me as well and the second authorization occurred the moment enough funds were added to the a/c!!!!

And the 'first authorization is simultaneously released by Google' as told to me by their support team. Depending on which bank your a/c is made in, it can take up to 21 days for the first authorized transaction's money to debit back to your a/c.

But you surely call them up or email them and your bank as well after the second authorization takes place (just to put them in pressure and make your problem go higher in their priority list :p)

Press thanks if I helped you
[Nexus 5 General] nexus32:
Lucky you are and all the people who were shipped through FedX and Gati....I `m hating Bluedart...!!

What batch is urs....310, 311 ya 312???
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
I feel for you. It will be really sad when you find some defect or some problem with your phone in future and you can't get any RMA or help from Google Playstore. And you go to LG service centre and all they will reply is "Sir, we can't help with this, you can put this or that hardware part for this much rupees... "

Buying from Google has 2 major benefits, 1st> it costs 1k less for both variants 2nd> you can RMA as many times as you want.

Too bad you can't do that. You seriously can't be happy purchasing it from local retailer. May be for now you are glad you got locally but in future you will know what I am talking about. Peace out.
[Nexus 5 General] TJKV:
I'm not lucky yet, I haven't received my shipment from gati yet (it's 7pm) though it's been in the city since 4pm. It will be December manufactured for sure.
[Nexus 5 General] :
I bought from a local dealer 3 days before it came out on the play store. Found 2 dead pixels a week later and loose vibration and got it replaced the very same day from the service center. Plus the 1k extra could be considered by some as opportunity cost to inspect their phone before accepting it and immediate delivery.

That invalidates both your points in my opinion. No offence meant.
[Nexus 5 General] atishey23:
I totally agree with u...But I have own family issues...which are complicated...I don't have a credit card...only debit card. And alone I have to pay twice...means 66k and one payment would return after 10-15 days...which I can't afford. And because of other issues too.. I can't purchase online just because of those two benefits. And I have heard that RMA are those devices which google fixes and give them as RMA.

312
[Nexus 5 General] anuseb89:
Finally got it.. 32 GB Black.. Ordered in 31 dec.. Went to fedex office in the evening for collecting it.. Couldnt wait till monday..312k batch..buttons are fine.. No dead pixels i could find.. Speaker holes i cant compare.. Overall feeling very happy.. :)
[Nexus 5 General] nexus32:
Atleast you can track it and you know that its reached the city.....For us....Its as good as not shipped yet...Tracking number not even workin...

Had I been it your place...Would have called up the courier guys and had picked up the fone from their office, if they aint able to deliver it by end of day....coz tomm may be a holiday being Sunday....

[Nexus 5 General] anuseb89:
Mine was through fedex..i think amazon is very good in delivery as per my experience..
[Nexus 5 General] eshopper:
a big lol for ur presumption.. i see complaints only from ppl who bought from playstore a lot..

i didnt buy from playstore and my device has no issues till date.. plus i got 3k+ cheaper than playstore price..

its not LG will not honour ur complaints but they wont honour silly issues..
[Nexus 5 General] :
+1
[Nexus 5 General] vksjangra:
well i paid them again today and my order is finally being shipped through fedex courier (got the tracking no as well)

now lets see when it will reach me.
[Nexus 5 General] droid@xda:
Here in Pune, LG was ready to replace my friend's N5 after he convinced guy at service center that his screen has yellow tint compared to mine! Not sure how well his new phone is going to be in this department but the point is at least people here in LG are helpful and kind.
[Nexus 5 General] freak744:
If you got the shipping confirmation, no need to worry.

You'll have your device in no time :)
[Nexus 5 General] vksjangra:
hope so!

are you planning to get a case for nexus 5

if so which one?
[Nexus 5 General] freak744:
Oh I'm planning to first get a screen protector from a shop.

And then probably I'm going to get any back case for it with a matte finish so it gives the same feel as the original back panel on the phone. Amzer's matte finish case is one that I saw and is quite affordable (about 560Rs. I believe). That is really all that I'm willing to spend on a case, as I originally didn't want one but have to get one because the camera lens protrudes out a bit.:p
[Nexus 5 General] vksjangra:
i was thinking of ringe fusion clear back case its only 999 on amazon and we get a free screen guard as well with it
[Nexus 5 General] abhi98228:
I didn't get mine yet shipping by gati its in my area for like whole day but didn't get it
[Nexus 5 General] Ajaykumar21066:
i got Ringke fusion , from Amzon , the one for 999 is grey colour not black , but a good cover though

---------- Post added at 01:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 AM ----------

anyone ordered after christmas has got the phone ???
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
LG will only replace upto first 7 days of buying. Checked with LG and confirmed. What about the rest 358days ? Well 1k less and you get unlimited RMA's for a year. Nothing beats that.

Nope, that doesn't happen. And people who say that can't confirm this as they don't work for Google. I have talked to Customer care of Google and they told me that they never give refurbished item ever. But ofc I won't believe them as CC always bull**** people. So, I rma'ed my nexus 5 310k and got the new 311k. 2 weeks later I replaced again and I got 312k (312k when the new orders started shipping, can't be coincidence)

How to know batch from seeing nexus 5's box. Is it possible? Or how to knw batch from phone itself?

Finally some good news .. Blue dart tracking is now working

Pickup Date	04 January 2014

From	Mumbai

To	Bangalore

Status	In Transit

Await Delivery Information

Expected Date of Delivery	07 January 2014
[Nexus 5 General] TJKV:
Actually it's just 15 days with play store. Beyond 15 days we have to go to lg service centres too.

EDIT: Not too sure actually, they seemed to have revised their warranty center information. Only the returns/refunds section mentions 15 days, but it might apply for warranty too. Maybe someone should verify this with google, if anyone is calling them anytime soon (to bug goog about their shipment etc :p)
[Nexus 5 General] sameer8019:
same here my tracking number is now working expected delivery date is 8th jan
[Nexus 5 General] :
You need to read the rma policy again my friend. It's not unlimited rmas. Google is not insane.

" If for any reason you do not wish to keep your device, you have up to 15 days from the date the device is delivered to you to initiate a return in accordance with the Return Instructions described below."

Quoted from their website.

https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/2411741?hl=en-IN
[Nexus 5 General] amkush:
I RMAed my Nx5 almost a month after receiving it from play store. Though warranty claims will be processed by LG at the back end but when you are purchasing it from Google then it will remain front end for all warranty claims and you will have to RMA your device for any warranty claims within 365 days. By the way my screen went dead and I believe I was allowed RMA under warranty and not under the 15 days return period clause.
[Nexus 5 General] TJKV:
Good to hear. That's pretty convenient then!
[Nexus 5 General] :
If that's how they do it then that's amazing. Good on Google.

I see absolutely no reason why LG wouldn't do it if I bought directly from them. I'm going to have to intimidate the **** out of them to get my job done I guess. (I've done it before with my S2 :P they refused to replace the battery once and I threatened them with a lawsuit!)
[Nexus 5 General] Ajaykumar21066:
Today shipping date

HI GUYS

Today is my shipping date , still no intimation from google , no shipping email nothing

Status still shows pending

Order date - 24 Dec

Ship date - 5th Jan
[Nexus 5 General] eshopper:
so you are RMA ing it for every new batch is it??? seriously dude thats a pain in ass to take backups, RMA, wait for new device and restore your stuff..

whats the reason you are RMAing two phones??

i dont find a single reason to go for service centre as of now..
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Facepalm to both of you. It's been 50 days since I got my Nexus 5, already have RMA'ed 3 times. last time was a week back. How can it be 15 days ? 15 days is only for "Refund" and return is for a whole year. I don't know why they have typed wrongly in their policies but having actually asked for rma'ed and I got a new piece certainly shows that returns are for a whole year. I have checked the same with Google's CC aswell and reply was returns are for a year.

No. I rma'ed the device for actual defects. First 2 had dead pixels and last one is kinda perfect ex ept the button rattles but it's all cool as it's a minor defect which doesn't matter to me. It's not a pain in the ass ... call Google (20 mins) , wait for bluedart for pickup (2days- you can still use your phone in this time frame) , bluedart comes and give you a new phone after (2days)

so in total 2days+20mins and you get a totally new device(not refurbished) , worth it.

Nexus 5 shipped!!!

Hi all,

I placed play store order for 32GB Black on 2nd Jan through credit card, amount processed on 4th and saw "shipped" status on the same day! Awaiting delivery for tomorrow as per tracking status. No issues/delays, no double swipe on card etc. so far. Expecting a good piece hopefully without any flaws.

Planning to buy SPI Gen Neo Hybrid and possible a glass screen protector.

Will keep you all posted!

Good day!!

Cheers,

[Nexus 5 General] Parithosh:
Can someone here reassure me that the problem of LED notification not going off until you reboot the phone is a software bug and not a hardware problem? In only two weeks of usage, I've faced this issue 4 times and I don't expect it to go away in the future either, unless it's a software bug and a fix is released.
[Nexus 5 General] jtflora:
Hello Guys

I am on the same waiting list as rest of you ...:(...

Had ordered on 25th Dec around 6pm Nexus 5, 32gb Black finally the tracking details became active today morning ... showing 7th as delivery date :good: ... Buying from google play sucks though... have been charged twice.. limit blocked on CC.... should take cues from Amazon or Flipkart.. charges are reversed in not more than 3 days....

Quoting Seadra

So does the Bluedart bring along the new device or you have to wait .. what would happen in case there was delay in stock (as was the case in december... with our orders... :( )
[Nexus 5 General] rameshbitra:
I am having this same issue. Pulse light notification doesn't turn off and a reboot needed to stop tat. Due to this I turned off tat feature for now. Hope it's a software bug and not a hardware issue
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
No, they take the device and in merely 2 days they give a new device.

I have rma'ed twice in december and never faced any delays. 2 days max and you get your rma.
[Nexus 5 General] Parithosh:
Yeah but turning off the feature is not an option for me.

Problem is, I don't see this issue being reported widely, as compared to other known issues. So that gets me a little worried.

[Nexus 5 General] rameshbitra:
I uninstalled lite flow app and enabled pulse light notification. It seems to be working now however I am yet to conclude. This cud be due to conflicts due to handling light notifications directly supported by app and lite flow app. Perhaps this shd be a software bug

[Nexus 5 General] droid@xda:
To those having issues with notification light, just give 'light manager' app on play store a try. For me, stock settings never worked and not even light flow app was reliable. But light manager works perfectly. Using it from more than a month without any issue.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 General] TJKV:
Yes it appears I did :)

It's a November manufactured 32gb black piece, there are a ton of updates to do on play store. Only two apps in the play store list were up to date. There is also a 54mb system update for the camera. Screen yellowish, but less yellowish than my old phone (Defy) so I'm happy. My defy also had extremely rattle-y buttons, which I had not noticed in the 2.5 years of owning it until I read the complaints about Nexus 5 buttons. So in my opinion I do not have rattling buttons on N5. Once the updates finish I will run a set of hardware tests and if it pases then "fastboot oem unlock' ;)

If there is anything to complain about it's that the screen is too big. 3.7" --> 5" will take a while to get used to. Feels extremely thin in the hand, I actually like it better with my case on (Spigen slim armour in white)
[Nexus 5 General] Hemant946:
mine, which i received today only is dec'13 manufactured (bought from play store) and with no cam update atleast and screen doesn't seem yellowish to me....m i missing something :|

mine is of 860 (including 45 rs delivery charges)...i saw ringke also on amazon since reviews were not great so ordered cruzerlite, i liked its funky look and gr8 reviews.

[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
People I am not able to take a screenshot on my phone ..tried pressing "power+volume down" but nothing..What shall I do?

And can anybody please suggest a case..i just bot a cheap one from my neighborhood shop.. Ringe has a clear hard back so the back will get scratched pretty bad in a month or so and Cruzerlite isnt simple enough for my taste..any other option?
[Nexus 5 General] anmolbedi:
Go for Ringke, back won't scratch. The glass on back is raised by nubs on the case. It's much better than cruzerlite. Ringke would have tactile feedback to your buttons. Cruzerlite has only cut out for buttons.
[Nexus 5 General] vksjangra:
ringke case has a cushion space below so that the clear panel does not come directly in contact with the surface hence protecting it from scratches

the above was stated by some body on amazon,com in comments, i am yet to receive mine will report my own review once i get my hands on it
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
Alright then ..will go for Ringe only ..do post your review with some pics here once u receive it :D:thumbup:
