Hey all not sure what to make of the nexus 5 given I haven't held not seen hands on video of both colours.

I went for the white 32GB but on further inspection of pics found the white has a Silver earpiece grill. Why would they do that?

I would have assumed that to keep costs down all parts would be the same except the backplate which would be a colour variant.

Also the reason most companies use a black fascia is to allow you to watch video without glare or distraction from the screen so makes sense to have a black front. That and keep costs down again.

But why would you put a big freaking reflective dot above the screen when you could have kept it black.

Im not sure there is any right answer again on this until we get hands on and see for ourselves but from what iv seen the black one is a fingerprint magnet so case will be needed. The white is different and in my opinion lovely but you will always be distracted by that shining dot above the screen. grrrr first world problems eh.

Might have to look at a black one and just put a case on it.

[Nexus 5 General] zephiK:
16gb black... have ~4gb left on my n4 so ill live with a 16gb
[Nexus 5 General] oupavoc:
Weird, just noticed the ear piece, if you haven't mentioned it. Black shouldn't be a finger print magnet if the used the same material as the Asus Nexus 7 (2013). I have one and its awesome. Stays clean. If you've never seen one, Best buy has them on display!

Don't get me wrong, I really do like white phones, but I'm not digging the black front and side. If it was all black would have been sweet or even front black and the side and back were white it would have been ok.

Which is why I grabbed the 32 GB black!
[Nexus 5 General] jason4962:
just ordered 1 white 1 black both 16gb. white comes at 8 and black is untill 22.

Send from my sch-m919 using xda app
[Nexus 5 General] Kenneth131:
Never had hands on the Nexus 7 probably should have by now, I just imagined that the type of material it is will mean it shows oils from your fingers on it. Although I know the white will likely get discoloured over time. Im really torn with this phone. Love the white just not the materials. With no confirmation for definite on the speaker grill colour its so hard to make a decision on what going to be the best choice in the long run.

hopefully my local phone store will have both in on display and I can see side by side then make a decision. Dont mind waiting but want to make the right choice from the beginning.

Feel bad for anyone who bought the white. This will likely happen two weeks after you get it.

32GB black for me. Don't know why I got the 32GB but I figure if I'm going to hand it down to my wife after I'm done (gave her my Nexus 4), I might as well not skimp out while I can.
[Nexus 5 General] oupavoc:
Even though I got the black, you can always protect it with a case!

Black 32gb, if I'm not happy I'm sure I'll be able to swap out the back soon. ;) anyway first nexus phone jumping from lg e970.
[Nexus 5 General] Jayowend:
Black 32GB

Sort of wanted the White, but wasn't really sure about the texture/material and if it would easily get stained.

I think the Oreo/Panda looks pretty nice (either have front, side, and back ALL white, or like this. White back and side doesn't look as good IMO), and the main reason I wanted it was it probably would get less visible fingerprints on it through use.. some of the leaked photos for Black looked horrible with the amount of greasy fingerprints on it haha.

Anyway, a few days ago I went into a store and had a look at the Nexus 7 back texture which is supposedly the same or similar? And I thought it was pretty good so I opted for Black instead.

Was considering the White a lot though.. especially since I know most people will have Black as confirmed by this poll.

Extra points for being special and standing out! ;p kidding.

Hope i get tracking info at some point. Said you wouldn't get charged until your order ships out.... and i was charged.... but no e-mail saying it shipped or anything.
[Nexus 5 General] vomer:
16 White - mainly because the black shows too many smudges (new N7 has the same type of back)

Dirt will show more on the white one.. plus if there is any overheating at all it will most likely discolour to a brown-yellowish tint.

White 32GB here. Was about to pull the trigger on a black one, but flashed back to last night when my brother could easily find his white One X and I panicked and couldn't find my One X+ after we'd gotten the cams installed in his Evo.
[Nexus 5 General] agelus69:
I got the white one because I'm heavily into watching porn
[Nexus 5 General] force70:
32gb, white.

Why anyone would order a 16g I have no idea..id buy a 64g if they had one.
[Nexus 5 General] :
Guess I'm the very small minority... White - 16GB.
[Nexus 5 General] gen10:
Lol totally agreed there is no memory card expansion and it's only 50 more. I also got the 32gb white. For some reason I regret getting the white. Idk why but it was hard to choose for me. I feel like I'm going to be surprised on how much I like the color mix but I guess we'll see.

Btw mine shipped 2 days baby!!!
[Nexus 5 General] s33squar3d:
32gb White

Although looking at pictures of both, you really couldnt go wrong with either color. Storage size is just more of a personal preference, I like to know I wont have to worry as much about filling up my phone. Granted the cloud does make it much more viable to have less memory, but why not use the storage on your device if you have it right?
[Nexus 5 General] montbazon:
I made decision about storage but color.

Both are look damn so attractive:P

[Nexus 5 General] tmurray7491:
Same here, but only because it was the only 16 gig version left when I ordered :( It still looks nice, but I just would have preferred the black.
[Nexus 5 General] Latinaso:
16 & 32 gb, both white.. Nov 8th for shipping :cowboy:
[Nexus 5 General] timvdlinde:
16gb Black version here
[Nexus 5 General] Endoran:
White: 32gigs. I too thought about the color a lot. So much so that I didn't order for a few hours and got the November 8th shipping time.. Went with white since it's different from my black N4. I figure if it does turn yellow or brown I'll put a case on it (it will be naked until then). Also, I like the contrast with the camera lens.
[Nexus 5 General] rosswaa:
Yeh I like the white back so getting that but only the 16gb one. Gets delivered Monday, can't wait!
[Nexus 5 General] Kid_droid:
32gb black tbh i always have a case so white was always going to hidden.

Streaming got my data plan capped. And I have unlimited data. But sometimes it's a worth having some music. Plus I upload alot of video lately.
[Nexus 5 General] om22:
32gb Black because i only hava a 500mb data plan:(. And at home i´ve got a slow 135kbyte/sec upload so it would take a long time uploading some gigs of music.

[Nexus 5 General] Shivammcool:
I had chosen the Nexus 5 32GB Black. The White Nexus 5, seeing how it is the same feel and material on the back as the Nexus 7, would get dirty very, very quickly (by finger messes and/or by normal day activities ie. placing it on a desk, in a dock etc.). There is no denying that. And since this is a masterpiece of a phone, I don't wanna take that chance. And, IF you do end up putting on a case (which I recommend since the way LG integrated the camera it will be prone to scratches easily) black would be the better colour since every case (colour and style) would match it. For white, the cases would have to be selective.

Also, games are getting bigger and bigger every day, take for example COD: Striker Team and Real Racing is like 2GB each. For those reasons, I choose the 32GB version. Also, when I get around to root this beast, I would keep lots of backups, kernels, ROMs etc on it for easy flashing pleasures.
[Nexus 5 General] Cheater912:

[Nexus 5 General] Super Chimp:
The reason I always pick white these days is in my experience black phones always show up finger marks very easily. You're constantly having to wipe them over.

16 gb white:) will receive it on tuesday:)
[Nexus 5 General] Globespy:
But white plastic will discolor, especially since it's that rubbery feel kind. The iphone is coated with some shiny lacquer and seems to be pretty good at not discoloring.

I was going to go with the white but decided against it as I am pretty sure it will show blemishes, bumps and general grime much more than black.

Time will tell I guess, but most of us will use a case so it's probably a moot point! Hopefully they release more case options than the N4, you might end up stuck with a white phone covered by a black case! :laugh:

You actually have a delivery date confirmed? I've just got an email saying it will be dispatched by Tuesday 5th November, and with 2 days shipping that's obviously Thursday. Since there is no mail on Sunday, even if they posted Monday 4th, you won't get until Wednesday the 6th - there wasn't an overnight shipping option, 2 days was the fastest.

You might get it on the 5th if they post today.

Might be different in Germany though? You guys usually get your US electronics later than us.

Just sayin......
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfuscoLetum:
Stupid question, I know, but since my micro sd slot on my note died, i have serious issues installing apps, and had to cut about two thirds of what i had installed.

The current partitioning of storage on my note looks like:

View attachment 2362523

note (pun not intended) that "device storage" is where apps, and apps only get installed, and "USB storage" is everything else. app2sd was great, when I had a functioning sd slot, but not really an option now, since it doesn't recognize the usb storage partition as a card, even though it mounts at "sdcard0" :-/

Been looking to upgrade anyways, and since the n5 has a 32GB option (yay!), just looking for some confirmation on what the storage looks like. Hoping it's just one big section where everything gets put. Only having 2GB set aside is quite a pain :'(

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: oh, and before someone replies "but you have 200MB free", it seems to take about 10x the space of the app to update it. I don't know why, and since i'm planning to replace this soon, it really doesn't matter. The last few updates to chrome have all failed to install unless I ditch something small, update chrome, re-install what I ditched. Even restarting has ceased to work :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrenW:
It'll be one big partition. The beauty of no SD card.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamnikaz:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfuscoLetum:
See, this is what I'm looking to avoid. I don't wanna go from one bad situation to another. I know it hasn't got into a lot of hands yet, but if someone could post up a screen of the n5's storage like I did?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrenW:
If it's the same as my Galaxy Nexus then there are no limits as to how you use your storage. Fill it up any way you like - all music, all apps whatever
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] r0cafella:
On the 16Gb Model you get 12.55gb available.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J_Dutch:
Thanks, this is what I wanted to know!

I think the OP wants to know how much storage is the partition where you can install your apps. On my one x for example it's 2 GB. I hope N5 will not have more then 2 GB. In my country only the 16GB model is available so I'm more worried about the FAT partition. But that's 12,55GB if you are right. Would be great!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InfuscoLetum:
Yep! From what few images there are of the storage settings screen of the n4, and GrenW's post here it seems like the nexus phones are a "1 partition for everything" type setup

I might just buy one anyways. My note has been really starting to act up lately :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J_Dutch:
Yes I saw that also, it's different to what I'm used to at my one x but is definitely better this way. One partition for all.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamnikaz:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
The Nexus S still had a segregated partition because its architecture was originally designed for the launch of Android 2.3 which did not support single unified storage. From the GNex onwards, all the space on a Nexus device's data partition is shared between apps, app data and the "sdcard" folder.

Download .ftf file for .534 firmware [LINK]

Downgrade to .534 firmware with Flashtool (and untick wipe data/cache/appslog so that you can keep all your data) [GUIDE]

Use vRoot, 360 Root or Kingo App ROOT to root your phone [GUIDE]

After rooting you should restart the phone 2 times

Now you should get a notification that there's an available OTA update to .257

If you don't get the notification, go to the Update Center app on your Z1 (I think the icon for it is a blue circle with two arrows) and refresh to get the update notification

Just install the update through your phone (not through PC) and the root will still be there

WARNING: If you don't get the notification for .257 update, then you will only be able to update through PCCompanion but that way you will lose the root priviledges.

If that way doesn't work for you, you can also use gregbradley's way to root your .257 [GUIDE]
