Firstly, you have to make sure you have an LTE compatible SIM card. Secondly, take a look here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_LTE_networks (search for romania)

and here

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Differences-between-the-two-Nexus-5-models-D820-and-D821_id48985

If you bought it from Canada, you probably have the D820, which won't work on LTE here. Check the markings on the lower back of the phone or by going into fastboot mode. Be careful with all of you smartphone acquisitions in the future, because you'll probably run into similar issues if you buy them from the other side of the ocean.
[Nexus 5 General] AdrianFederovici:
LTE

Still, it should work on bands 1 and 5 if they are available.
[Nexus 5 General] Geo2160:
Did you even bother clicking my links? It says pretty clearly there that romanian carriers only have band 3 (1800Mhz) available for LTE. 3G and 4G bands are not the same.
[Nexus 5 General] AdrianFederovici:
LTE

I called 408 on orange and they said 2600 should be up. I checked your links.
[Nexus 5 General] Geo2160:
I am sorry then. Please check again if you have an LTE compatible SIM card. By default they don't provide you with one.
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
and of course, you must be aware of the warranty issues. they said that the US models are not covered by warranty in EUROPE. it is said to have continental warranty.
[Nexus 5 General] gamerZ1:
He needs a new SIM card a USIM to be more precise and a 4G compatible plan(subscription or prepay).And the US model is not working on romanian LTE bands.

hi guys .... in germany to Saturn markt LG G2 its 349 euro .... SIM FREE. orange vodafone cosmote dont have good price.
[Nexus 5 General] clepsy:
Of course they don't when they ask usually about 200eur and a 50eur contract for 2 years, that's just insane,
[Nexus 5 General] regius:
No, it's not. The operators figured out that romanians are willing and ready to pay that kind of money
[Nexus 5 General] daniel_loft:
Guys, please don't start a discussion about this here. It's far from being related to Nexus 5 and there are other places to talk about it.

Thank you!
[Nexus 5 General] daniel_loft:
Did your N5 come with headphones or not? Because I believe that the wonderful guys from eMag forgot to put the headphones back in the box when they resealed it and I only noticed them missing when I packed my old phone to be sold (I'm using another custom made pair or headphones and never used the stock ones).
[Nexus 5 General] KoRoZIV:
You should have a sticker on the side of the box that lists the content. Mine didn't have headphones, but I hate emag so I've got it from Orange, no contract.
[Nexus 5 General] daniel_loft:
KoRoZIV, where's that sticker placed?

On my box there are only two stickers on the small sides of the white lid: a big one with the IMEI & model and a small one with the local distributor.
[Nexus 5 General] mikka06:
I bought my phone in Switzerland. Brand new sealed box without headphones. Looks like headphones are not included,already read about that before purchasing it.
[Nexus 5 General] KoRoZIV:
The sticker with the content is on the other side, i have the imei on the left and the content on the right. It was placed there by the seller/distributor, it's in romanian.
[Nexus 5 General] clepsy:
There are no headphones included in the nexus package, and I think this is from the galaxy nexus time

Btw the galaxy s4 fits ok and it works also the volume and the good thing is that are cheap on gsmnet
[Nexus 5 General] regius:
I got my nexuses from Germany, and neither had headphones in the box (N4 and N5)
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
at the real sales price of the nexus, headphones are NOT included.

i bought a pair of nexus 4 original headphones at that time and they are still the best headphone i have ever tried.

http://www.androidmeter.com/unboxing-and-review-of-the-nexus-4-headphones-video/
[Nexus 5 General] Maramu:
Nexus 5 has headphones included only in certain countries, which demand it by law. I know for certain that France enforces this rule on the French Play Store.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
I don't know about these headphones included in the packages, I always found better ones separately. I am a big Sennheiser fan.
[Nexus 5 General] clepsy:
+1 for Sennheiser, what I mean is that you buy it once and never replace it :)
[Nexus 5 General] RaoulS:
nexus s was the last nexus that camed with headphones..(as far as i know)
[Nexus 5 General] Blueyedevil:
I just got mine before the end of April from Voda at a very special price and mine came with headphones, I'll see later today if i remember to post a picture. They are the in-ear types.
[Nexus 5 General] daniel_loft:
My Galaxy Nexus came with headphones, IEM's, but inferior to my HeadDirect RE0's.
[Nexus 5 General] Blueyedevil:
Coming back with the pics (btw - I didn't open them yet since I'm still using te ones I got with the Galaxy Nexus) :
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
There are some in the package of my Nexus 5. I don't like in-ear phones, I prefer over-the-ear ones.
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
very strange situation. i got nexus 4 also from Germany and emag web store and both had NO headphones.

can you post a better picture of the headphones?

i got a pair of pretty expensive in-ear Senheiser for a friend and after 2 months the cable broke, exactly when entering the headphone. and after a few days the other headphone had the same issue. i forgot the receipt someplace...so no warranty. i knew these were good headphones..but my nexus 4 are better in all comparisons.
[Nexus 5 General] daniel_loft:
Bogdan_wrc, if you still have those headphones i could try and fix them.
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
we'll keep in touch if I can find them...
[Nexus 5 General] Sabyn:
Hey guys, i want to buy in the next month the Nexus 5 , and i found the cheapest price in this site. http://www.grifonul.ro/telefoane/lg/lg-nexus-5-d821-16gb-negru-nexus5n16gb.html

Anyone know something about them? I never bought something from them before and that`s why am i asking. Or you know another place with a lower price? [ yeah, i am a stundent, don`t have so much money :)) ]

And btw, how is this device. I am very interested in camera, i want to know how good is it.
[Nexus 5 General] KoRoZIV:
The camera is great for daylight use, check the dedicated thread.

Never heard about that online store, try to find some reviews for it. I preferred to pay more to orange because most online stores have bad reviews and the few reliable ones had none on stock or had the same price.

ota 4.4.3? Somebody
[Nexus 5 General] ucraiova88:
So far no
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
I think some of the Europeans may get it by the end of the week. We should get it in a week tops.
[Nexus 5 General] kraven001:
what ota? sideload the package, just check the threads. no need to wait for google to push it.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
Can you preserve apps and data this way?
[Nexus 5 General] petrescu:
Was at Orange today because tomorrow I am buying it, no OTA, for now.
[Nexus 5 General] ucraiova88:
Received ota on a nexus 5 and girlfriend's nexus 4.i hava another nexus 5 and for that one not yet :)
[Nexus 5 General] kraven001:
Side-loading the OTA is basically like receiving it (you are downloading the package from the Google servers). Just read around here: http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/info-nexus-5-ota-help-desk-t2523217

It should be seamless and should preserve everything.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
I just found out that the OTA for the Nexus 5 was caught. I will wait a while loo longer, I want to see how long will it take :D
[Nexus 5 General] daniel_loft:
I'm on CM11 since day 1 so I'm still gonna be waiting for it for a little while.

Thinking of trying Omni the week after next week when I'll have some spare time.
[Nexus 5 General] kraven001:
Besides the "modem" all the changes are internal (bug - fix). If you are happy with 4.4.2 wait for it , no need to rush it - besides the boasting (I have the latest and greatest ...).
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
Has anybody received the 4.4.3 OTA update with an unlocked bootloader? I have not still received it. Mine is also rooted and I installed Franco's kernel.
[Nexus 5 General] Laurentyu1995:
You can't update via OTA if you have another kernel or if you modified some system files. There is a flashable zip of stock rom which also includes the new baseband
[Nexus 5 General] kraven001:
You won't be able to install it, but you will receive the notification of it being available.

Again, if you have an "itch" you can side-load the OTA. You will not loose any data and you don't need to be unlocked or whatever, sideload works for pure stock.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
I am on stock rom and kernel, but my phone is still rooted. Is the OTA identical to us as to all others on 4.4.2?
[Nexus 5 General] kraven001:
Yep , there is no "region" difference, the OTA is the same, everything is the same.

If you are rooted in theory it should work but you loose root (you can reapply after the first 4.4.3 reboot - just to be sure). To be extra sure you can revert your system partition to stock 4.4.2 (fastboot) and then it should succeed without any hickups. There are at least two sticky threads about how to do this.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
I unrooted it and flashed stock kernel. I am waiting now. Thanks.

Edit: it appears that the kernel touched some files on /system and I applied the OTA through the custom recovery. I am now on 4.4.3.

[Nexus 5 General] Vlad Paul:
New bootloader? The kernel wich version is? What about root?

Sent with mako via tapatalk
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
there are just factory images. found here

http://developer.android.com/preview/setup-sdk.html

or details can be found in the special topic. i think there are the same for now.

root appeared to be available from some toolkit, but i am not interested yet.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
The versions you are installing are not complete. You may break your phones. I would wait for a Nexus 5 factory image and if Nexus 4 doesn't get Android L (which is very unlikely), I would install a port based on a fully functional version. Just my 0.02 euros :)
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
what do you mean NOT COMPLETE? its the preview version from google website. there are hundred of persons trying them all over XDA (nexus 5 & 7) and i haven seen any complain...

its as easy as installing a factory image..

because this is what these are...

wait, you are talking to me or to vlad paul..for his nexus 4? because as long as i remember this is a Nexus 5 topic ;) i installed them on n5 and n7, of course.
[Nexus 5 General] Mihnea1996:
Hundreds? About 4000 downloads for Flashable zip in Nexus 5 Android L preview by Vomer . And maybe around ten thousand people that installed it with ADB. Now add Nexus 7 users and make an approximation ?
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
even better :) i tried to be pretty moderate. did you see anybody complaining? (except those who want to install root, twrp, or other program not supplied by google, even if its been only 12 hours since the release ;) )
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
It is a Developer Preview, not a final product for the Nexus 7 and Nexus 5.
[MENTION=1364645]bogdan_wrc[/MENTION]: I was talking about Nexus 4 as well.
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
Yeah, but this is a nexus 5 thread ;)
[Nexus 5 General] Laurentyu1995:
I'm also running Android L Preview since it was released and i can say it's awesome.I like the new features and i can't wait to reach final version. Of course it has some bugs but i can deal with them, and i hope in next future app developers to update their apps to make it compatible with this preview. Also it's smooth and i can say it's stable (no reboots,no random shutdowns,no sod or anything like these ) and i use it as a daily driver. Have a nice day !
[Nexus 5 General] bett3rthan:
Does anyone know if I can flash the baseband from Android L in 4.4.4? For me I don't why not, but it's better to see other opinions before flashing it!
[Nexus 5 General] Laurentyu1995:
Yes you can ;)
[Nexus 5 General] Maramu:
I flashed it when it came out, over SlimKat 4.4.4. At least in my area it gave me a little boost to signal strength and coverage (I'm on Digi Mobil). So far no issues and no visible battery drain. But then again, if it doesn't work for you, you can always switch back to. 16 or. 17. :)
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
do you know anything about the availability of LG G watch in RO?
[Nexus 5 General] daniel_loft:
I don't know about its availability, but people are complaining about very poor visibility in direct sunlight.
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
link me please :)
[Nexus 5 General] aresbv2000:
Dude....have you bought your Nexus 5 from Digi? How long did you waited until you recieved your phone? I made a new contract with them 2 weeks ago and I have not recieved mine yet :(
[Nexus 5 General] Maramu:
I bought mine a couple of months ago, so I don't know exactly how long it takes for them to deliver the units. A friend of mine ordered the M8 and he was told 'unofficially' by the sales person it would typically take around 4 weeks for delivery.
[Nexus 5 General] daniel_loft:
bogdan_wrc, here's the link!
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
thanks. i will keep my eye on the reviews as they appear.
[Nexus 5 General] bogdan_wrc:
well, mobile fun UK apparently ships to RO the LG G watch also..so..i might place an order.

Hmm i observed a funny thing on my new n4.

I disable google+ autobackup and photo to sync but after some hours it re enables itself automaticaly :\

For exemple the google photo backup it's disabled to backup from photo app.

Somebody has a solution whiteout disabling google+?

[Nexus 5 General] regius:
Anyone here on Digimobil? I have an issue with my N5 not swiching automaticaly on vodafone (national roaming) when out of digi coverage. Also, it does not connect on roaming partners while abroad. Always I have to select the networc manually, and this is a pain... I am using the latest Purity Rom
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
It may not be that easily because you are going into roaming (national or international). Have you manually selected the operator DigiMobil? It should be selected automatically.
[Nexus 5 General] regius:
I can select it manually, but I remember my dumb phones would just register on the networks automatically. This is a smartphone, why it cannot do the same?
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
I think it will stick with the latest setting, meaning that it will not switch automatically to another network because it is smart (it is counter-intuitive now). I am just guessing, I am not using it on Digi.
[Nexus 5 General] regius:
That's exactly what it does! Kind of not so smart I would say. Well, I have to live with it.

[Nexus 5 General] BunkerGuide:
I'm updated to 5.0, but with factory image, did not wait for the OTA. I'm happy, no major issues for me, except the memory management bug (I had to restart the phone because I saw background apps restarting - most annoying one app with persistent notification).

Sent from my Nexus 9
[Nexus 5 General] Sabyn:
How is the battery?
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
I didn't wait for the OTA too. I flashed the factory image, I am currently all stock. There is a problem connecting to an Enterprise WiFi (applying the OTA keeps the already connected WiFi). I get about a day out of the stock kernel, jsut like I did on KitKat, but I use GPS from time to time. I used to have about 2 days between 2 charges on KitKat with Franco's kernel. I'd say update to Lollipop, but be aware that some users are reporting a lot of issues. I installed all the apps I had on KitKat, I didn't encounter any app to behave like here http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/1...-suffers-the-longer-you-go-without-a-restart/. I had 2-3 days without any of the issues in the article.
[Nexus 5 General] BunkerGuide:
Similar to KitKat. If there is an improvement, it's not major, at least not for me. I still charge it every night.

I think the battery saver option does an ok job, squeezes a bit more time. I have it turn on automatically at 15%. Sad that they had to implement those ugly orange bars when it's active.

[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
Not for the Nexus 5. I read that only the tablets will get it. I'd prefer to wait and get a 5.0.1 that is really fixing bugs than to get one with some bugs still present. This is the reason I am still running stock Lollipop.
[Nexus 5 General] Sabyn:
I am still on stock 4.4.4 , waiting for a lollipop without bugs
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
I didn't encounter many bugs, 5.0 can be used as a daily driver. There are still some issues with the memory management.
[Nexus 5 General] Sabyn:
If You get the 5.0.1 update, tell us and what's new ans if it still has problems with wifi and battery drain please
[Nexus 5 General] darkeingel:
I'm running stock 5.0 + Faux Kernel with intellimm and I can squeez at least 24 hours with 4h30m - 5h of SOT without any problems.

I'm not using GNow or other Google Location services and carefully reduced the kernel partial wakeups by monitoring the apps that are running in background with BBS.

Tho' i'm coming from Moto G and the difference is enormous in terms of battery life, and 4.4.4 with xposed + some handful modules, I find 5.0 pretty neat and stable.

One thing tho', probably because using other governor and custom kernel, my phone acts sluggish after 3-4 weeks of using it in comparation with how was out of the box + ota update. Probably will do a clean install of 5.0.1 and see any differences.
[Nexus 5 General] Sabyn:
Guys, i downloaded the OTA 5.0 update, but i didn`t installed and now i want to install it and i cannot. If i try to search for system update, it says is up to date. Any ideeas where is that update to remove it so i can download it again?
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
Look in the Downloads folder or the root of the SD Card. If your Nexus is rooted or has anything modified in /system, the OTA won't install.
[Nexus 5 General] Sabyn:
It is not in download folder.. and the device is not rooted
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
[MENTION=5235310]Sabyn[/MENTION]: try side loading it. There are done guides about it with links to OTA download.

Any recommended modems/radios for Vodafone Romania?

I'm interested in low battery usage in 3G/4G scenarios (mostly 3G). I'm using the latest modem/radio found in stock L.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
I am curious if anybody tested different radios on Lollipop. I am on 5.0.1 stock radio too, on 3G all the time. 4G coverage in Galati sucks balls. With Franco's kernel I get 1 day and a half of usage with about 2 hours of screen on time.
[Nexus 5 General] Niflheimer:
Bucharest , Orange 4G .

Running Code Blue with Cataclysm , 5.0 radio. Around 13h total time with 6h SOT.
[Nexus 5 General] big_bum:
I live in Bucharest and in the dorm I have 2 lines on 4G, in the living room I get full signal. The rooms are 5-6m apart.

I'm not saying my battery life it bad, but I think it can be improved with a proper modem.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
The 4G signal strength is fluctuating outside. This is what is killing the battery, not using 4G. It goes from 3G to 4G and back. I tested 4G connectivity in the UK, where I had full strength everywhere. I actually had better battery life than on 3G at home using the same kernal/ROM version as the one I had in Galati. A better radio can only do so much, I am not saying there is not room for improvement. You can disable a certain network so it won't fallback to it, but it will affect you where general signal strength is low. We are still too far from daily usage of 4G connectivity.
[Nexus 5 General] big_bum:
Yeah, switching from 4G to 3G and searching for 4G towers is what's killing the battery. Add that and a low 4G signal 50% of the time and there you have it: poor battery life.

I guess we'll have to wait for 2016 for proper 4G from Vodafone. :))
[Nexus 5 General] nevrozel:
How on earth can you get 6h SOT? On Wi-Fi only? Do you use it as a phone as well?

I have Cataclysm with its stock kernel and get around 3h SOT. And I have smart radio activated so most of the day I am on Wi-Fi with 2G.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
or Orange
[Nexus 5 General] Niflheimer:
No wifi , screen at minimum brightness , no location or social apps . Sync off and -50mv undervoltage.average is around 5 h and a bit - I do have days when I get 3.5-4h SOT , but they are rare.

WiFi only actually drains more for me than 4G , but then my office is around 25m from a 4G tower.
[Nexus 5 General] wingman021280:
Hello everyone,

Coming from no issues at all on Nexus S and Nexus, I am now facing radio issues on Nexus 5.

I've tested a few basebands from here but none seem to make visible difference.

The problem is that radio keeps dropping and I have to cycle Airplane ON/OFF to get it to register back to the network.

GPRS is fine at around -65 dBm, but HSPA/+ and LTE are -110 -95 dBm.

I see that many people face this problem and I was wondering if there is a fix for this.

Thank you.
[Nexus 5 General] tmihai20:
[MENTION=6808460]wingman021280[/MENTION]: What network are you on? I went through all radios since 4.4.2 and I had no issues. I am on the latest radio right now (the one from 5.1.1). What ROM are you using? If it's stock, what modifications did you apply?
[Nexus 5 General] wingman021280:
Hello and thanks for replying.

I am on Vodafone with fresh sim (my old Nexus was on normal sim). ROM is 5.1.1 stock, except the baseband (tested all radios from 2.0.50.x.x).

Just one hour ago I remembered that the ex owner told me he changed the battery, so I thought... is it possible that one connector is not in place?

Well I've opened the phone and yes, the antenna connector on the top right (looking at the back of the phone) was not connected.

Now that I connected it, signal is in normal parameters. hsspa+ @ -75-65 dBm.

If anyone is facing similar issues, mostly connected to 2g and no internet, barely connecting to 3g and dropping signal like hell, check the connectors.

I've attached img with the connectors location. Red square on the top right hand was not connected in my phone.
