I don't think there was anything like Knox during ace time. Back then reverting to stock was still possible. I'm not really sure about it, but most probably this was the case previously.

Any ways ace is the past now ;)

For battery drain issues turn off WiFi/cellular data when not needed. As mentioned earlier brightness level can be lowered too. Check if NFC and android beam is off if not used. Try letting the phone drain away its battery completely and then charge it fully once.

For all the additional camera features there are plenty of applications available on the market. You can try some of the big and the famous from these options.

For charging issues, which charger have you been using? Is it the one which came with the phone?

I ask because different chargers have different charging speeds so perhaps you should check out with another charger is possible.

If nothing really works then I guess factory reset is the only option. If that doesn't help, you should get it replaced.

Ordered the phone on 18th night from Flipkart and received it on 20th morning. So far so good. Haven't checked for any dead pixel yet. Will be checking it after a week or so. 30 days replacement period so no worries there.

Nothing new to report or review about the phone. 311 batch. No loose buttons.
[Nexus 5 General] abhi98228:
still order is pending from google ordered on 12th google why you taking so much time
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Which one did you order (16/32GB, white/black) and what was the expected delivery time on the Play Store? Go by what Google specified there and be patient. Lead time may have been more or less when you ordered your handset. Generally Google delivers earlier than what they specify.

Expected delivery time as of today is 4-5 weeks for black 16GB and 2-3 weeks for black 32GB.

If you are really impatient look for a local retailer who stocks the phone and if you find one, just cancel the play store order.

I've been getting pretty good battery stats.

Yesterday it was 1 day 18 hrs with 19% battery remaining.

Wifi was always on and mostly used for calling,facebook and tapatalk. Played some games for 15-20 mins too.
[Nexus 5 General] eshopper:
i dont use wifi.. brightness level is set as auto, NFC and beam are off,

please provide me the names of camera apps you suggest,

using the charger which came with the phone,

will wait for couple of charging cycles to complete to decide whether to rest or not.

thanks for the help. :good:
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Knox came up only with the S4 and Note 3. We were happily rooting & flashing our older Samsung devices. But I hear this form of 'warranty/modification flag' will become common in Samsung handsets, especially the high end models, henceforth.

My experience with dev ROMs (CM10 and Carbon) on my Note 2 and S3 hasn't been very encouraging. I prefer the stock ROM for stability and battery life.
[Nexus 5 General] Parithosh:
Guys could you tell me please if the LED notification problem is a general software bug or is it only my phone on which there is no LED notification whatsoever.

Haven't tried any market app yet but shouldn't it at least show by default for a missed call or something maybe? On 4.4.2 BTW.

2. If there is a phone no. in a text, can the phone no. be saved to contacts by clicking on the phone no.

---------- Post added at 05:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ----------

Perhaps a major reason why I would prefer a nexus over s4/note 3

3.

I owned a galaxy s before this and rooting was a boon. Its only because of cyanogen I have it on gingerbread.

But that's the past now. Nexus rocks! :D
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
I agree, the Nexus will be my 1st choice if it had a screen of at least 5.5" and some improvements in the quality. Maybe Asus gets to make it next year. If Motorola, let's also hope they re-enter the Indian market.

Whoever makes it, hopefully the Nexus 6 will have a larger screen. Then it's a no-brainer and bye-bye Samsung from me!
[Nexus 5 General] Z3US911:
received my replacement device yesterday but i am disappointed as hell!

rattle issue still exist.And it looks like speaker holes are a bit bigger than the previous one.
[Nexus 5 General] chirag_chheda:
Bigger speaker holes!!!

Batch number please :D

---------- Post added at 06:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:17 PM ----------

I don't know about the screen size but I think it should be Motorola only for the nexus 6.

Whatever it is, its going to be awesome as usual ;)
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Rattle still exists? That's really sad and pretty much does nullifies the reason for the RMA! Hope you could check the display, because display defects are more serious than cosmetic issues like rattles.If your new handset has bigger speaker holes can you also click a photo and tell us the batch #?
[Nexus 5 General] :
My replacement device shipped today :cowboy: , So unlocked bootloader really made a difference :D , just kidding . Will receive mine on monday .

I had to call the tollfree 1800 number to know whats happening as my device was delivered to them yesterday , The guy was not able to provide me with a tracking number but he did acknowledge that my replacement device was being shipped out today . He said "there is an update from our shipper's end which says replacement device is being sent out today :D

mine is White 32 GB , the old device did not have rattle , the buttons were loose yeah , but did not make any noise when the device was shaken .

As posted here by sharp razer if i am not wrong , the details of imports of nexus 5 which dated 14 december I think all new devices we will get will be from 312k batch

i never used samsung , i was on the hTC bandwagon since 2 years incredible s > sensation > one s > one and now finally n5

i would not mind jumping to htc m8 if its good enough , i never liked the stock android untill 4.4 on n5 came out .
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Guys.. I called Support for RMA for my device. This would be my 2nd RMA but.. the guy from support told me that google india will contact me in 24-48 hrs. He also gave me a number so I called the number and they say, google play is country closed :( what the hell ?
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Congrats man! So when I root my phone or flash a dev ROM & custom recovery I still get warranty coverage. Way to go Googs/LG! Now I believe you are customer friendly.

Do let us know what batch your replacement is from.

---------- Post added at 06:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 PM ----------

They are on Christmas leave/vacation. Hence the reason for the notice on the Play store about shipping orders received by 15th Dec in time for Christmas. Orders received later will probably be delivered early Jan 2014.
[Nexus 5 General] Z3US911:
trust me you will get your device from 311k batch.

and i did a dead pixel test,seems all okk.Its just the rattling sound which is irritating enough for me to exercise RMA option again.Will be trying again in january.

And mine is from 311k batch!
[Nexus 5 General] :
umm did u use the call me option ? in which u get a call from +5012 or something like that ?

and the indian customer care is open till 6 on saturdays and sundays .. try calling them tomorrow or maybe monday

[Nexus 5 General] samerotica:
Pals I got 32gb black boy from batch 311 :cool:.. Everything is perfect only power button rattles:banghead:. Got it from LG store. Any idea if they can fix it or they will change complete handset. I want to use the same phone though.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Better to get it replaced. But then be prepared to get a replacement with the same or more problems.

This question is not directed at anybody in particular but folks at large on this thread - Seriously guys, I wonder exactly what prompts this craze for a so called "rattle free" power or volume button. I mean, do we shake the damn thing all the while before using it? A slightly loose button doesn't impact usability in the least like, for example, a faulty display would. Have to wonder exactly how many times will people exchange their phones for these cosmetic issues. :laugh:
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Yep, call me option. Hmm, may be the reason. I did ask the US support to tell me the timings or any holidays before I call em, and he told me he is not aware of any. Anyways, I don't know why they are directing me to Indian play store :/ previously I received my RMA from US support , I wonder why/how.
[Nexus 5 General] samerotica:
Bro I bet vehicles that you drive makes too much sound may be that's why you are not bothered about any rattle sounds... A defect is a defect sply when it's paid in full that too real currency notes.. :beer:
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Umm, no my cars are pretty rattle free. :) Anyways, fair enough bro suit yourself. Good luck with the ongoing RMAs/replacement, hope you get a defect free piece...eventually.
[Nexus 5 General] samerotica:
Bro that's what my concern is I just want that sound to be fixed. Don't they repair phones like Samsung.

[Nexus 5 General] H4CK_H0PP3R:
It should work with any international debit/credit card, Just make sure you putting each correct details while adding to wallet any details as some wrong info will block your card in wallet , last year I tried with 5 different gmail ids also with different cards n at the end my card got blocked as i tried many times & its still same , I can't buy anything from my main gmail Id from playstore ,unable to resolve issue also as its asking for documents ,

Is PNB is nationalized bank or cooperative ? I am not sure maybe its making trouble to u or try to make new gmail I'd with US proxy with name which you gonna use for buying & try to add OR simply ask any relative or frnd for card as you will never need to put password while doing transactions on play store.

VISA, VISA Electron and MasterCard

these are the supported types of debit card on google wallet...

if your debit card has one of those logo then your debit card should be accepted by google wallet.

but most of us has a "Maestro" type of debit card which is not supported by wallet, may be that's why our debit cards are not accepted in google wallet.

Can your mastercard debit card be used online? Some banks issue electronic use only debit cards (it's written on the card somewhere) which can't be used for online purchases. I had to use my MC Credit Card for my purchase.

They do. If you want to get your phone repaired go to LG service center. Probably LG won't acknowledge that slight rattle as a defect. So the only option you have for rattling buttons is RMA. Most of the people prefer getting a new device rather than getting it repaired.
[Nexus 5 General] :
I am thinking what will happen to the tons of returned faulty devices :silly:
[Nexus 5 General] Simplyansh:
Same here

I've ordered from playstore on 9th Dec, it shows it would be dispatched by 27th Dec, expecting it to be in my hands by 30-31st Dec 13. Do drop a msg whn u receive yours. I've ordered 16gb black. Regds, Ansh:good:
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Let me tell you something based on experience: I gave my brother's old Note 1 for repair in October. The Samsung centre opened it up. They didn't put it back together properly. The effect? Dust on the inside of the glass, handset not assembled properly (edges not perfectly aligned) etc. etc. The handset also died within 2 hours after delivery and we (my brother and I) had to rush back again. Then they took 1 week to fix it and cleaned up every single spec of dust in the handset. Also, quite luckily that phone is working well now.

If small things like a button rattle upsets you a spec of dust under the display would bug you no end. But there's always a chance the LG centres are better and more careful. I haven't had an occasion to use their services and hope not to either. Anyways, ask them if they can fix it for you. It's a very minor issue and wont take time. Good luck.

They are eventually sold as refurbished sets and/or used for warranty replacements.

Apple does it too once the product is a long way into its lifecycle.
[Nexus 5 General] fanil123:
Yes, all the returned phones are refurbished and recycled back to customers as warranty replacements.

It is quite possible that some of you who returned the phone in first week of december will be given as replacement to someone who will RMA their phone now.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Yes, provided the phones have been fixed. I RMAed mine for a hot pixel issue within a week of getting it. Got the replacement on 29th November.

Guess my original handset would be going to some other customer, somewhere on the planet. ;) Hey who knows, we could be getting RMAed pieces from some other country coming to us too. :D

[Nexus 5 General] ankur3290:
Can you tell the hardware version of your nexus if you think that the speaker holes are bigger than previous. Because I think the batch number doesn't matter until the hw rev is changed.
[Nexus 5 General] Z3US911:
is it mentioned on the box?
[Nexus 5 General] ankur3290:
No. You have to first power off your nexus and then press volume up + volume down + power button at same time. It will start in recovery mode there you can check the hardware version.
[Nexus 5 General] Parithosh:
Quite strangely the LED started working after posting about it here. Though it doesn't light up while being charged :/
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Quick way of doing this is looking at the label on the box, stuck on the side. It's the one with the IMEI number. The batch # is a identifier it starts with 310K, 311K or even 312K.

Let us know because there were subtle changes introduced recently according to a thread on XDA and widely reported thereafter on android sites. Let's see which batch it was introduced in. The 310 and 311 batches had the old 'design'

Ok, so finally contacted Google India and they said, I am very well entitled for another RMA (this is my 2nd RMA). They sent me an email with the same instructions but the thing is, in that new RMA form, the date is 1st Dec and IMEI number is of the nexus 5 which I originally got. What the hell ?

Form closed pop up... I can't reply to any post... Strange... Is it same with all???
[Nexus 5 General] ankur3290:
I think you have read that "Hardware changes" thread. In the same thread it was mentioned that until hardware revision number is changed in recovery mode till then its same as earlier batches.

Check this and this. The guy saying his nexus is having larger holes and the hardware rev is 11.
[Nexus 5 General] Z3US911:
my hardware rev is 11 :)

i am really fed up with this rattling sound,it even comes when i touch screen from top side of screen. arghh!

and i also think that there's a vibration issue,i cannot feel it vibrating even if i am wearing pyjama,so forget about jeans.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
I too have a rev 11 phone from the 310k batch. Obviously we need to wait till the 312K comes into the market to see if they have incremented the hardware revision.
[Nexus 5 General] Z3US911:
but mine is from 311k batch.

Hey guys, I just purchased the Nexus 5 from the play store in US.

I'm currently in Canada right now, and just inputed my sim from Vodaphone India. I can make and receive sms, and receive incoming calls but can NOT make outgoing calls, and I don't know what's wrong. Obviously the network is detected because I can get incoming calls/sms. When I try to make a call it just waits for 3-4 seconds with no sound then says call ended. I've tried calls locally and abroad to India.

Is there some setting I have to alter within the phone itself? I tried enabling data and roaming but it didn't change anything. I also tried disabling NFC but that also didn't help. Do I have a bad phone?
