Can someone who had RMAed their phone let me know if I need to reseal-retape the phone box or just need to stick the address and RMA label on the phone box and hand it over to the courier guy.

Thanks !

Its not mandatory that you reseal the box. But I always do it anyway. With a note saying "This box was sealed when picked up"

Google Now - issues

Guys.. I have a question regarding Google now..

Are any of you guys able to

1. Play music by using voice commands

2. Get flight info/package delivery info (Gmail cards)

I have a feeling that these options are not enabled for India users.. So just confirming..

I came to know that problems with battery drain after 4.4.2 update is not with the os.. It's with the wireless network connections if you keep wireless on and put it on standby it will disconnect from wifi and keep on try to connect which eats up the battery a lot.. Hope this helps
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Not in my case. Even standytime sucks now. I used to sleep at 2AM and wake up at 9AM. Battery used to be the same or may be just 1 % down. And yesterday I slept at 3AM and woke up at 10AM and my battery go from 99% to 94% :/ My wifi was totally off.
[Nexus 5 General] Nexar:
initiial update skipped. How to set it up again?

Hi guys. Been following the thread almost since the launch of N5.

Just got mine (32GB/Black) yesterday, and as there was no wifi connectivity I had to skip in the initial system update at first launch,

It said you can set it up later, but i can't find where to do it from. Can someone please guide me?
[Nexus 5 General] eshopper:
out of stock now

Bought during GOSF, hope they do not cancell :fingers-crossed: out of stock now
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
I will advise everyone to just buy from play store instead of other online stores or city retailers for that matter. Play store's RMA policy is the best out there and being the early adopter, you are bound to get problems with the device. So rma from play store is silky smooth and with no worries at all. For eg you are gtetting 32gb for 31k from ebay, but then again u can't rma it from LG service center easily. But with play store it's easy as hell. Just for 2k or 3k , don't risk your devices.
[Nexus 5 General] ankitkhedekar:
Did you check for updates manually. Settings->About phone->system updates??

---------- Post added at 07:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:35 AM ----------

I need suggestions for decent screen protectors around Rs500 (other than the gadgetzshield one). And also online store from where i can buy it, since nexus accessories are not available in local stores atleast in my locality.

If anyone as already any such below 500 screen protector listed on ebay please share your experience.
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
I thnk today is the last day for ordering from playstore..their shipping holidays are beginning from tomorrow in India.

I am using Galaxy s3's screen guard for N4.. Rs.80/ -

I orderd one matte screen guard & it went bad while appliying my self, so head over to a local shop & they applied GS3's screen guard.. :D

Why to waste so much money on a screen guard when u are having a gorrilla glass!
[Nexus 5 General] dg_nexus:
Hello Guys, a quick question. My 32GB black N5 gets heated especially at the top portion of the backside (near to the camera). This happens even if I have used it for 10-15 minutes of web surfing. Is this normal or shall I go for RMA ? ? ? :confused:
[Nexus 5 General] Parithosh:
Can you pls explain what implications will that have on fresh orders? (say after tomorrow). And when does the holiday period end?

I was planning to order on the 19th.

Edit: Also, seems like the deadline was till noon. http://phandroid.com/2013/11/26/google-play-christmas-shipping/
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
Go to https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/4359025?hl=en&ref_topic=3245086 for more info regarding their shipping holidays.

There is no info about when will these holidays end.I think they wont accept orders till their holidays over.
[Nexus 5 General] varuntis1993:
will it effect the shipping for RMA devices also?
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
I think you should contact google customer service.They will tell more about this.If you do contact,please tell us also what they say.
[Nexus 5 General] Parithosh:
I don't think so.
[Nexus 5 General] varuntis1993:
I have contacted them and they said that no it will not be effecting shipping of RMA devices :)

RMA Update

[MENTION=4438668]Sharp-Razr[/MENTION] [MENTION=5398512]Seadra[/MENTION]

Guys received my second replacement device today.

No dead pixels, power button rattle, display bleed so far. Thank god.

will let you know if anything goes wrong. (I hope not) :p

Play store RMA is really awesome. Im really glad i bought it from there :)
[Nexus 5 General] samerotica:
Dear battery drain also occurs due to low mobile network.. If the bars are not full device pushes and consume little more energy. Hope it helps. Thanks
[Nexus 5 General] varuntis1993:
your device must already be updated that is why it is only showing u only the latest update and also if u have bought your device from India, the devices were already updated.
[Nexus 5 General] Tachyon1986:
Make sure Location Services is set to off. It's a major battery drain and the only time you really need it is when using Maps . Another service that keeps your phone awake is Exchange Services. If you've configured Hotmail/Yahoo e.t.c , make sure the Sync is set to 1 hour instead of PUSH. Keeping it on PUSH makes the phone listen to the server, thus awakening it at regular intervals from Deep Sleep. Finally, disable Touch Sound and Screen Lock sound. These also have a service that keeps your phone awake.

Also, I highly recommend using Franco's Kernel (Check Nexus 5 - Original Android Development forum). It switches off two of your cores , and only enables them when some apps demand it. I took mine off charge at 10 pm and it was 98% at 8 am. IMO , it is the most battery efficient kernel.
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
Seriously? ouch :'( I can't imagine a nexus 5 without button rattle lol. My Mamu has one and has the same power button rattle problem. Yup, playstore RMA is just sexy! and I am glad too I bought it from there. I am willing to do RMA but now that holiday season is coming and it took me 5 hrs to setup my this phone >.< hell! Btw yours is 311k ? is it revised hardware ?

I live on 2nd floor and my signal is full all the time. Even battery stats suggest there was no mobile network loss.

Location services are off ofcourse. Exchange isn't setup so.. sounds are off to. I am right now on fully stock! and I won't be going for kernals atleast for another month till I get bored of this.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Hey congrats mate. Fingers crossed. I hope our RMAed devices work trouble free henceforth.

All the hype about Nexus and Android KK set aside thing is I am not very happy with the quality. I hope Google ties up with Asus. Those guys make top notch hardware. Been using Asus motherboards, graphics cards, sound cards for nearly 13 years now. The Nx7 has a better build quality than the Nx5.
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
haha , Don't think so that will happen :( And I am already guessing next nexus will probably come from Motorola.
[Nexus 5 General] ankur3290:
Also turn off wifi usage for location. Even your wifi is off then also this option wakes up and check for location.
[Nexus 5 General] Ashutosh1313:
Nope its still 310 because the total RMA stock is 310. And yes no power button rattle :)

Thanks dude i too hope so its stays trouble free for at least a year.
[Nexus 5 General] amkush:
Didn't someone earlier report that the replacement device he got was 311 ?
[Nexus 5 General] ankur3290:
Yup I got 311k batch device after replacement.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
If Google ties up with Moto, we're screwed because Motorola pulled out of India at the end of 2012. Moto makes fine handsets. So then we'll go a-begging for the Nexus 6 and have to buy from the grey market. Sorry Googs, you'd be losing me as a customer.
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
lol what? Mine is 311k bro :P :confused::confused:
[Nexus 5 General] thegr8anand:
Any one else has cracked their screen yet? I still don't know where to go. The LG service center in my city is permanently closed and the one in next city is not responding to my queries.

Terrible experience.
[Nexus 5 General] Seadra:
well motorola is coming back here with Moto G on January and who knows, may be they will sell more handsets here soon and get some goodwill. Let's hope.

---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:48 PM ----------

Hey mate, a trick here. Probably a gamble.. anyways here goes. Contact google support and tell them u have some normal problems like dead pixel/button lose problem may be.. They will initiate the RMA if you have bought from play store. And u get a new device. The reason I am saying this is because I shipped my phone on 12th dec and my phone reached google india on 14th. Now the surprising part here is they alread had shipped my device on "13th" , my phone didn't even reach their warehouse and they already had shipped my new phone.. so who knows? may be u will get luckly. But then again gambling a 29k/33k phone is not worth it and this may be illegal :P .. anyways, my 0.05cents
[Nexus 5 General] jiteshj:
The catch is that they charge you twice for RMA and refund you back when they get their device in conditions you specified... So never take the risk
[Nexus 5 General] ankur3290:
Moto g is already being sold by shopyourworld.com in India.

Don't rely on pick up date. It can be wrong. In my case my device was picked up by blue dart on 11th dec and in status it showed 12th.
[Nexus 5 General] sameer8019:
plz dude dont give illegal advice to anyone here. may be someone get replacement by doing this trick but we Indians will loose are faith n trust to google. i hope u understand what i mean
[Nexus 5 General] ankur3290:
I agree with you. You don't what kind of action they might take. They have written conditions clearly in that RMA mail.
[Nexus 5 General] thegr8anand:
I just want to get this thing repaired quickly!
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
Contact LG India customer service..tell'em about your problem and status of nearby service centers.They will surely help you regarding this..best of luck..:)

PS: Dont do that RMA thing..this is illegal..you might get into trouble..!!
[Nexus 5 General] ankur3290:
If there are no lg service centre then I would suggest you to call google play support and ask them if you can send the broken phone and ready to pay for damage. They may suggest some solution.
[Nexus 5 General] chandradithya:
Hello guys, Just came across this awesome thread.

Ordered for the 16gb black on 12th december and still no reply from google. The Play Store order still says "Will ship by 27th". Hoping to get the 312k edition hopefully soon :)

Anyone ordered the phone close to the same time as mine? and got the status changed to shipped?

I also was pretty impatient enough to buy these accesories for my phone already, Anyone has ordered these. or have any thoughts? :)

Vinyl : iCarbons Black Carbon Fiber (Shipping from USA, use the coupon GIFT20 for free shipping)

Scratch Guard : Clear Screen Guard x2 (Ships from India)

Wireless Charger : Nokia Qi Wireless Charger DT-900 (Ships from India)
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
I ordered it on 9th and got it today on my shipping address..currently m out f town so cant check for defects..but its recieved atleast..:)

PS-Nexus 5,32GB Black..:)

Anyways from your signature ..whats dat iCarbons Black Fiber?

if i am not wrong..thats a sticker for nexus 5..not a case or cover?
[Nexus 5 General] sameer8019:
i ordered it on 12th dec and still waiting for it. i ordered 32 gb black. play store says will ship from warehouse in 2-3 weeks
[Nexus 5 General] chandradithya:
Yeah, Its a 3M based Vinyl (Not exactly a case or a cover and more like a sticker). I've a friend who uses it on his Nexus 4. It makes the phone look sexy and also protects the phone from scratches and does not change the size of the phone like a case normally does :)
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
how to remove that?

I mean..if somebody wants to remove this 'sticker',any residue remains there?
[Nexus 5 General] parthsony2000:
I ordered 16GB black on 7th December and still shows PENDING (leaves where house on 27th Dec)

Sent from my Xperia-P
[Nexus 5 General] ankitkhedekar:
how is that screen protector. i saw it on ebay today. can you give more details about it and is it worth buying??
[Nexus 5 General] chandradithya:
You just remove it like any other scratch guard for your screen. And since its of 3M quality adhesive material it will not leave any residues behind.

For proper installation alone a heat gun or a hair dryer is required.

---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 PM ----------

Ouch thats sad. Hope we both get it soon :D

And i have just ordered it, I havent got that yet. I just wanted a cheap one which is not the matte type so i went for it. Will let you know in the accessories thread once i receive them :)

Also others replying to the accessories i have mentioned. I have also posted the same in the "Indian Accessories Thread" under the accessories section. Do reply to my post there and lets stay on topic here and keep it spam free :D

My uncle just unboxed my N5 as I am out of town..they told me that power button seems loose like its sticked separately to phone..volume button is rattling less..mine is 310K..shud I look for RMA or further test it for dead pixel?

PS- can a good hardcase help me to decrease rattling? :(

No Dead Pixels..:)

what should i do now?
[Nexus 5 General] Ashutosh1313:
Yes a TPU case will suppress the rattle dont worry. the main prob is dead pixel. check if you have that otherwise no need of rma.
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
Dont have any dead pixels..:)

I am looking for screen guard. I have this RMA unit with me and I know GG3 isn't nuf as I did have a small scratch on my previous unit. The main thing I am looking for is a guard which doesn't attract fingerprints/dust. I am guessing it will be a matte finish or is there any other option available?
[Nexus 5 General] Z3US911:
guys i am sending my nexus 5 back to google for replacement.I am facing rattling sound issues.

does anyone here have done that?

i mean how should i pack it? RMA form should be inside the box or should be pasted on the outer box(blue one).

and should i pack it in some sort of poly bag or just handover the box itself?

---------- Post added at 10:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 PM ----------

[Nexus 5 General] vinod.20r:
What kind of rattling sound issues?

---------- Post added at 11:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

Go for a matte finish one.. I think u can find a pack of three on eBay for 450. One of my friends just purchased it and seems worth it
[Nexus 5 General] chirag_chheda:
Check out the post by sharp-razr at page 467 of this thread.

He has explained it pretty well over there.
[Nexus 5 General] ankur3290:
I packed the original box inside one more box and then bubble wrapped it. I put one RMA print out inside the original phone box and one in packing. That's it.

Do not handover the box itself. If something goes wrong with phone or anything with in box then you will be held responsible.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Precisely one of the reasons why we don't have facilities like advance replacement. Why should a manufacturer risk it?

One of the reasons for this trust deficit is the public's behaviour. It is not limited to any single country but happens elsewhere as well. Which is why they need a validated credit card number for advance replacement...I had mentioned this in one of my posts. Unfortunately CC popularity/penetration is low in India. Also, very few CC owners do online purchases for fear of fraudulent transactions.

Net effect - no advance replacements.

---------- Post added at 09:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 AM ----------

Well, then thank your stars and please don't fall for this tendency to RMA for so called minor "defects" like rattles. (But seriously guys :rolleyes:) )

You might get a handset that's worse as someone here experienced recently.

I bought the Capdase Klia screen guard. It's pretty expensive but the best I've used so far. It's finger print resistant and really very clear. Finger print resistant means just that....you will see light FPs on it...but not the blotches that you will experience with other products. Don't buy the matt finish, it affects screen clarity.
[Nexus 5 General] adityameena26:
just ordered grey ringke fusion case for my black nexus 5 as black case is unavailable..can someone please post a pic of their grey case+black N5 combo?
[Nexus 5 General] sameer8019:
can u show d pic of ur case n where from u bought n how much u paid for this??
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
This is not a case but a screen protector. Using my mobile so I don't have the link. Just search for Capdase Klia screen protector on eBay.in.
[Nexus 5 General] DrVNM:
I have used Klia variant scratchgard before. It is not worth the money. The coating wears off soon, in about 2 months and starts looking ugly. And swpying your way with text is always a trouble with all these plastic screen protectors.

Go green. Get tempered glass screen protectors. :P Seriously, they are the best.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
Thanks for the feedback. Frankly installed this a few weeks back. Let's hope it lasts a little longer than 2 months. I for one cannot see any coating on the protector. Also, not very comfortable using glass on glass, tempered or not.
[Nexus 5 General] DrVNM:
That's because the coating is still intact. You will see a rainbow effect around the places where the coating wears off. I too hope it stays well for more than 2 months. And what about glass on glass? Any worse than plastic on glass? Its much better protection and smooth usage compared to any plastic film for almost the same cost (the chinese ones hardly cost you anything). Have you ever used one? I suggest you try them out. They are freaking best. I am personally using a ROCK TG on my Note 3.
[Nexus 5 General] Sharp-Razr:
No, I haven't tried glass protectors. Like I said it's a personal preference. If this Capdase protector gets messed up I will think about using a tempered glass protector. Thx for the suggestion.
[Nexus 5 General] yashleo21:
Anyone who is sending out their unit for just rattling sound, PLEASE THINK AGAIN. Theres a high possibility that the replacement device might have many more defects like dead pixels,vibration motor issues. I have a 310K model and the power button rattles when I shake my phone. That's not a problem IMHO

For the hard reset part, go to settings and do a factory reset from backup and restore menu. :)
