Yes, I did have this problem but it was specific to windows 8. The explorer stopped responding when I was copying songs. So I killed the process and opened it again but it was the same problem. Then tried it in windows 7 there was no such problem. But ever since that play music stopped recognizing the album art. So I have manually refresh the song files for play music to detect the album art. But now I use rocket player. It works like a charm. I guess its play music problem. I started liking it but this was a let off.

By network I meant 2g/3g. Even while you're not on a 'data plan', the battery used up by your phone while connected to the network depends on the type of network you might be using (2g/3g)......

For notification on lock screen use dashclock and dashclock extenstions. (To put a widget in lock screen, you need enable under settings>security)

For badge icons you need to use custom launcher (like nova prime version, apex, smart launcher) and associated notifier app.
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
Thanks..ya already done that..using Dashclock ..might switch to a custom launcher in a few days combined with the Tesla plugin for badge icons..

I would like to buy the vinyl skin, can you tell me which ecommerce website delivers this. I needed xgear or dbrand one.
[Nexus 5 General] senotrius:
none for the nexus 5.its available for ios products on eBay or amazon in India.costs 12$ for cruzerlite to ship to India.slickwraps at 5$ via USPS (but that takes its own sweet time.)

do check them out at their websites and contact customer care to know the shipping rates.or just checkout with a product on their sites.

slickwraps,xgear and dbrand have their own threads here on nexus 5 accessories forum.as in the company itself has its own profile here.

Volume Bar Stuck

Hi Friends,

Facing a strange problem with my N5 since the last couple of days.

While playing a game or listening to music, the volume bar stays stuck when i try to change the volume although the volume does change.The bar moves fine while adjusting volume during a call or while doing it from the home screen. I have noticed it mainly when changing the media volume.

I have been using this phone for over 2 months but never had this issue until now. Anyone else facing this. Any known causes or fixes???

:confused::confused::confused:
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
Did u flash the speaker and headphones volume boost mod?..the one listed in themes and apps section..
[Nexus 5 General] SuRfeR101:
No. Itz still on stock
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
Ohh..then I am not sure..coz I had the same problem too but I had flashed that mod..so I returned to my stock settings and then it became normal again..n then I enhanced the volume through FKU kernel settings as I am rocking Franco's kernel..

If u have a custom recovery then try clearing Dalvik and cache..

N if u are completely stock and dont have a custom recovery then try switching to ART and see if that resolves the issue..
[Nexus 5 General] SuRfeR101:
ok. will try these out. Hope it helps. Will post it here once i find d fix :)

---------- Post added at 12:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:03 PM ----------

booted into safe mode and tried it out. The bar is working fine. Seems like some app is messing it up. Any ideas on how to pinpoint the rogue app :p
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
Well I dont think that an app can cause that..but since u said that u got this problem only 2 days ago so just pinpoint and uninstall the apps that u have installed in the last 2 days..
[Nexus 5 General] SuRfeR101:
formatted the cache partition.It took pretty long(around 8 mins). Usually doesnt last more than a minute.Anyways, problem solved, bar working fine now :)
[Nexus 5 General] Techimplant:
Great..looks like I didn't need to return to stock settings afterall ..clearing the cache would have done it..we learn new things everyday :good:

Backup for Non-Rooted Devices

Hi,

Wanted to share this link for taking a backup of your device before unlocking the bootloader. Its useful for people who have been using their device on stock and want to switch to a custom ROM now.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2091047

The tool basically uses the adb backup command internally with some added parameters. If anyone here has already used it, it would be nice to share their experiences with this tool.

:)

If you are using ElementalX (CM version[0.27-0.29]) then u might have this problem.

The black nexus 5 32 gb arrived today.shipped in 2 days from flipkart. 401 serial. jan 2014 mfg. There is a small number 7 or Z sticker on the box. not sure what is is. When i opened the sealed box i could see some dust on the top of device (default screen guard tape on). I guess there was some repacking of some sor or may be somehow dust got in while at the warehouse. the device is flying, screen is awesome. having come from an amoled screen this one is more whitish to look at. super light weight. have ordered a case and screen guard from ebay but it will take some time coming i believe. So mostly home usage with wifi till then. Also need to get the micro sim from vodafone store.
[Nexus 5 General] senotrius:
how long did it take to arrive? any custom duties?
[Nexus 5 General] :
Took about a week and a half to arrive. There were no additional charges. I bought another one on the 26thI of Jan and I got it on the 5th of Feb.
[Nexus 5 General] senotrius:
meenova has a good shipping rate of 3$.delivered to doorstep i presume.

also would u happen to have ordered any vinyl or decals from dbrand/cruzerlite/xgear/slickwraps?or anyone here that did and got it shipped?

.also any idea about economical otg cables available on amazon/ebay india??

No that dint help. Im really sorry to say that, but i lost all my media including pics, videos etc. doing that.. It even cleared my phones stock ringtones, alarm tones and message alert tones..

Both of these things that you are asking aren't possible with Hangouts and thats why Hangouts sucks big time..so use a third party messaging app as the default instead ..

Yep. It's costs $15 in total (12+3) shipped to whatever address you give them. It's pretty awesome. I've gifted one to another friend of mine and filled mine with all my nandroid backups and tb backups.

That's really great. So how do you pay through!!!?? So I should handover the money first and then they will dispatch it from their country. I would like to go for this meenova and vinyl skin for my nexus 5. There is a website which gives you all the skin here in India but they don't have skin avail for nexus 5 right now. So I first thought of waiting for their product to be stocked up soon. But now I can't wait for long if i can get the product from there. Do anyone know whether we can buy nexus 5 vinyl skin one from dbrand or xgear?? :)
[Nexus 5 General] The-Droidster:
15$ is way to costly dude. Any cheaper alternatives that are available in India..else I'm getting an OTG cable.
[Nexus 5 General] :
Not that I know of. Try eBay.

---------- Post added at 12:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------

Yep, you make the payment on their website first and they usually ship it either the next day or the day after.

One word of caution, you do need root(stick mount app) or a paid app(Nexus media importer) in order to get otg to work on the nexus 5. Stickmount works great with fat32 file format but not too great with ntfs. I've currently got it running on exfat along with the franko kernel Stickmount and the exfat bins on the Stickmount playstore page(check bottom of the app description)

[Nexus 5 General] The-Droidster:
Oops! Skipped that part. Will try again. Thanks!:o

Check the Box. There's a field labeled S/N followed by some number. Check the first 3 digits of the number. If its 401 or 402,the device is from Jan or Feb batch. 312, 311, 310 denotes Dec, Nov and Oct 2013 resp. No you can't get it replaced just because its from old batch. You can get it RMA'ed only if there's some genuine issue with the device, like dead pixels, screen bleed or any other noticeable damage.

---------- Post added at 02:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 PM ----------

What do you mean your volume rocker isn't moving? Are the hardware volume buttons stuck? In that case its a hardware issue. If you can press the volume buttons and there's no change in the volume, then try rebooting your device first. If that doesn't fix and if you are complete stock, then maybe try some custom ROM and see if it functions, else RMA the device since it would mean a hardware fault.

Just to clarify further to what has been mentioned earlier, due to the strict fdi rules, flipkart had to allow other sellers to operate hence you have other retailers now selling their wares online. but WS Retail is the store owned by flipkart. Since they couldnt sell directly they opened up the market and become a seller themselves. All the recent complaints about flipkart is due to these new sellers who don't have much experience in handling customer.
