One the same day (13th) we have 3 more imports http://www.zauba.com/import-nexus5-hs-code.html NEXUS 5 BUMPER CASE- GRAY/red/yellow 320/320/320 total = 960 :D And this 99% is for play store sales, so I'm guessing it will be exclusive for play store.

Should I buy a Nexus 5?

Hello Guys,

I just recently thought of buying my next smartphone. I researched a lot and atlast have narrowed my selection to Nexus 5. My only worry is, this phone is released before a year. Is it still good to buy this phone in October 2014 ow should I go for something else?

Please advice.

Thanks
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
Hi and welcome to the Nexus 5 forums.

As for your question, no one can answer that for you. We all have our own needs and expect different things from our devices. So, what do you expect out of it?

If you want tons of development and if you're on a tight budget, Nexus 5 might be a good option. But then again, it's a year old now. But IMHO, it should be pretty good for at least an year.

---------- Post added at 10:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ----------

They have already said that official OTAs will begin on 3rd November for Nexus 7 and 10 wifi models. Nexus 5 and 7 LTE will follow them in the coming weeks.

If you ask me, it's best this way. The expectations and the environment in the Lollipop thread was electric on the 17th. All of us eagerly waiting for the Big G to post the builds. If a tentative time was given, everybody would be like.. "duhh I'll sleep now and get up at 9pm when the update is out"... What's the fun in that?? :p Well, I guess it's just my wishful thinking at play over here :silly:
[Nexus 5 General] MakDroid:
Go for it. The USB cables do have an impact on charging but it doesn't depend on the length of the cable. It depends upon the quality of the cable. And the quality of the cable provided with the charger you mentioned is really great. I get almost 1500mA current constantly with this charger and the USB cable provided with it. How do I know? My neighbour has this charger and I asked him if I could test it on my N5. I just ordered this charger from flipkart. For 500 bucks, its an amazing charger!
[Nexus 5 General] nithin1992:
Go for the Moto X 2014 if the price is not a barrier. Flipkart has an exchange offer going on or you could use some coupons and buy one off ebay for cheaper.

well... yeah they have provided a date for nexus 7 and N10 but a specific date for N5 would have been sweet too.

have u flashed latest dev preview?
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
[MENTION=6098485]sundar0108[/MENTION]

If you care about custom rom/kernel development, stay away from Moto X. Otherwise, it's an excellent device.

[Nexus 5 General] swat4samp:
To me, kitkat looked like black and white movie (i always install any theme to get rid of that holo gradient) :p but L's material design is just eye catching and gives a premium feel to me. And yeah, having white background in drawer is somewhat derp, but this is android, we can always chose to opt for other choice ;) Just wait until official build arrives.

I always wanted white background everywhere , from the beginning (when i first started using android , eclair days[emoji13] ).

Been a fan of android from a long time due to its customization abilities over ios. Only thing i felt lagging in android was the smoothness of ios. But with Android L, i feel they have overcome that. The ui feels so fresh. Now we just need material apps, to make it a complete experience just like ios does it.

[Nexus 5 General] nithin1992:
Got the Moto X 2014 edition, ordered yesterday night and had it with me by 10am, pretty quick! I've been using it from the morning and its a really "useful" phone, thought i'd share my thoughts on this phone to help some of the others here who are planning on moving to a new phone. I've always stayed with nexus line of phones as all the features OEMs add are pretty useless, but motorola's additions on top of kitkat are definitely an exception, you'll find yourself using things like Moto display, always on touchless control a lot more than you think you would.

If your in the market to buy a phone, then go ahead and get it, but if you already have a nexus and your planning on upgrading then it wont be a major upgrade, the N5 is still a very good performer, it just lacks some hardware like the active voice processors and an AMOLED display which have a lot of benefits and since they are on the Nexus 6 as well, im sure google would make some more really good improvements on this front, especially the voice processors, The moto x does perform better than the N5 in smoothness especially during app installations there are no micro stutters present like on the N5 and the overall usage but its not a huge gain as the N5 is already near perfect. The camera is just okay similar to the N5 performance if you use the Google camera, battery life seems similar too, i got a little over 4 hours with 8% left and this was with lot of ongoing app installations throughout the day.

The bad stuff is the development side, custom ROMs and kernels aren't an issue at all they will come as time passes by but the problem is unlocking the bootloader which voids your warranty, so if your okay with that then development wouldnt be an issue either. But you gotta keep in mind that we use custom roms to get some new features for our phones, say PAs peek,Lockscreen notifications,active display etc and sometimes by sacrificing stability, but these features are built into Moto X stock ROM so yeah you wont miss those. My N5 is with my dad now, so if i do feel very adventurous I can always shift back to the N5 but as of now, I'm lovin it!
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
People who are using Lollipop (permissive or cf boot) , go ahead and flash ElementalX! :D

You will have a lot of control now on cpu and other settings!

[Nexus 5 General] Prattham:
Can you please elaborate..
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
If you're using Lollipop with permissive boot.img or chain fire's boot.img.. . You can flash ElementalX 2.0 which is a custom kernel for Lollipop.

You need to flash permissive or chain fire's boot.img before flashing ElementalX.

Guys, I'm planning to upgrade to Android L as I just can't wait anymore for November. Anything I need to know or take care about?

Also, I wanted to ask, which 'material' apps are you guys using/know about?
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
You just need to keep one thing in mind...

PLEASE FLASH THE USERDATA.IMG FILE AS WELL!

Yes, it will wipe all your data. But, it's highly recommended that you do so if you don't want issues later on.

The current apps which say that they are "material" don't actually use the Material API afaik. Developers can push the material apps from 3rd November when Google officially releases Lollipop! :)
[Nexus 5 General] Royal King:
Umm, crap. I've done that once before and I'm probably on the same userdata.img file which was launched with the first android L release (now again on kitkat). Should I flash it again or it's ok?
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
You've already been warned mate. Rest is up to you.

It's always recommended to flash userdata.img while changing Android Base (eg.: KitKat to Lollipop). If you want to take a chance then don't flash it. However, if you run into any issues, you know what to do! :)
[Nexus 5 General] Royal King:
Umm, ok thanks! I'll flash it.

btw, I should flash this right?

---------- Post added at 10:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

Umm, can't find 2.0. Can you link me?

Edit: Got it (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95747613655048396). So I should flash Lollipop - flash chainfire's boot img - flash supersu and then flash ElementalX right?

(Yes, I do need root privileges)
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
You can. But I never recommend anyone to flash zips of stock rom. Those .img files are meant to be flashed via fastboot which can be found @ developer.android.com . However, you could follow that thread.

I've never flashed chainfire's img so can't comment on that. Here's what I had done. Flash all img files from Google's zip. Flash permissive boot.img and supersu.zip to attain root. Flash elementalX 2.0 and then install it's app via playstore!
[Nexus 5 General] harsh.ea:
I'd be flashing the factory image of lollipop when it releases. My question is can I just flash them without having to wipe my SD card ?

I know it's advisable to wipe the data of phone hence asking
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
You've answered your own question. Can you flash? Yes you can. Is it advisable? No.
[Nexus 5 General] harsh.ea:
The question is: is the advice saying to wipe both data and SD card or just phone data will do?
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
Everything needs to be erased.If you ask me, flash all img files one by one!:angel:
[Nexus 5 General] MakDroid:
Thats what I do. I have even edited the flash-all.bat file to automatically flash the img files one by one. Its really very convenient.

I used it for a day and it worked fine. What error message are you getting? Not sure why you're using Trickster on Stock Lollipop kernel though. You can't change the frequencies of the cores. All you can do (changes which matter) is change the I/O scheduler and read ahead size which doesn't affect performance that much.

My advice would be to flash ElementalX or code blue and then use it's app to alter or any other kernel tweaker.
[Nexus 5 General] Royal King:
I'm on code blue. Wanted to play around a lil bit.
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:

[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
Best way is to flash the permissive boot.img from vomer's thread and then flash SuperSu.zip. Chainfire hasn't made the kernel fully permissive keeping security in mind and hence some root apps fail to work with chainfire's boot.img

Yes, Greenify works just fine.

Spigen Neo Hybrid

So I received the Spigen Neo Hybrid Case from Amazon today ordered @ 712 Rs. There was a small chit inside the box saying the product code which was authentic when i checked in website.

So does any one has a spigen case and does the Product authenticity code comes separately in a small piece of printed paper ?:confused:

BTW the case feels really nice and looks beautiful. the rim is the difference which we can make out (one i got from ali express was a fake one and had plastic white buttons and case broke near the ear jack hole). This case has a solid rim again made of fibre / plastic but looks a little metallic finish with silver metallic buttons around.
