[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electricpope:
That is a pretty general question that is hard to answer, because it is depends on what you value. The simple answer is that the N5 is basically one-year newer in terms of the hardware inside, has a little bigger screen, and supports 4g LTE. There are a lot of other minor differences, so I suggest googling Nexus 5 vs Nexus 4, because there are a few articles already out there that discuss the differences. More impressions will probably follow as more people get their hands on the Nexus 5.

Either device can do all the cool smartphone stuff you could want them to do right now, but the Nexus 5 will be a little more future-proof since the hardware in it is a year newer and it will get system updates longer. Whether that and the other differences are worth the $100 difference is up to you.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MohJee:
Of course get the newer phone ... what a silly question
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irhut:
I did not have N4 but I have had my N5 since 2pm yesterday and I love it! It is nice looking, very smooth to use, feels great in the hand. You would not regret getting one!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killomp:
Ok sounds good, but are you sure nexus 5 screen isn't too big than nexus 4? i know that nexus 5 screen is 5" and nexus 4 is 4.7", which is better for you?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hello00:
likewise dude..u getting the n5 too? did u already sell ur htc1? cant wait to sell mine but it looks like my n5 is leaving their warehouse in a couple weeks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dungeon47:
If you like/need latest and greatest, or any of the features unique to the N5 are must-haves, then go for it. If not, the N4 is still a fantastic device and will be for a few years yet, and may save you some money. A good condition N4 can be had for about half the price of a new N5.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irhut:
I find the screen to be the perfect size for me. I did have a note 2 which was too big. I really like the size of this phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garell:
Well, I'd say you can hardly get a totally unbiased opinion in here since most of us are here for the Nexus 5. We wont even know it if we're being biased. How about get some opinion from tech media such as Cnet, Engadget, etc. Oh, dont go to The Verge, cause that's iVerge.

also do you advice the 16 gb nexus 5 black/white or the 32 gb nexus 5 black/white? is the 32 gb really worth or 16 gb is enogh??

[MENTION=5521088]killomp[/MENTION] if your going to get the HTC ONE, Just wait for the second Gen. The NX5 is better then OG ONE in almsot every way behinds viewing angle and possible light bleed and not being made of aluminum (the one is also an uncomfortable tall device to hold IMHO)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] himu007:
I'd say definitely go for Nexus 5. The best Nexus phone you can get at the moment.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 072665995:
SO, to put it in perspective, you've pretty much got better everything. I like the Nexus 4. It's got a great feel to it but the glass back kind of puts me off (even though it was fixed in later models). It's got last year's best tech whereas the nexus 5 has this year's best tech or pretty much about as good as you'd need it really...

For me, when you take hardware out, I think the Nexus 5 has a much better feel. It's slightly curved back is really enjoyable and comfortable as opposed to the Nexus 4's flat back. I prefer the matte finish instead of the Glass back. It's also a lot more low profile. I personally prefer the Nexus 5 a lot more. Better hardware and a more comfortable feel for me.

Basically it really comes down to your budget. They're both entirely usable phones with great hardware that is more than sufficient for running pretty much anything. If you feel you could blow that extra $100 then by all means, go for the Nexus 5. But you can't go wrong with the Nexus 4 either :)

You don't say.....

I just saw your last post :p

The HTC One is beautiful. Just got about the most premium feel to any phone i've seen. But I'm pretty sure the HTC One will cost a lot more dollars than the Nexus 5 or Nexus 4. In Canada at least, it's like $300-$400 CAD difference O_o
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mzaur:
If you can afford it, get the LG G2 instead. It's similar to N5 but with much better battery life

[LG Optimus 4X HD] PenguinStyle:
I was thinking about why are those old gameloft hd games (nova 1,2 mc 1,2 avatar, splinter cell...) doesn't run on newer devices.

1. They aren't fit the screen, but they are HD so these games should fit it... :banghead:

2. Always after loading or gameloft logo they force close.

How solve this bug ?? Sory for eng...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titanic_fanatic:
Are you able to boot into recovery to restore a nandroid backup or reflash the rom?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pheonix1:
Yes. Maby wrong words i use. When i dont push power button several times (unlock home button and lock power) phone runs normally. Wipe and reflash dont help... (wipe data, dalvik).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titanic_fanatic:
This is not bricked then ;) bricked is when you press the power button and the phone won't turn on (hard brick) or bootloop at the boot animation (soft brick). A study brick is fixable by flashing a good ROM. A hard brick requires a professional to fix.

Your situation I believe is either a ROM or kernel bug. I think that pressing these buttons as quickly as it sounds like you are is probably causing the kernel to panic and reboot.

You should first search both of threads for the ROM and kernel you are using if they are not part of the same package for others with similar issues, there may be a patch or workaround not posted in the OP (original post) of the thread where you downloaded your ROM/kernel.

If no fixes are available, you should post on the development thread of your ROM/kernel about the bug so that they can fix it ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pheonix1:
Solved. Animation ctr off had bug

Thanks for help
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LostLess:
I've searched these forums for hours yesterday trying to find someone who has had a similar problem-maybe I am alone in this. Anyway, here goes:

I recently got my phone back from a repair shop-I suffered SDS. On return, the phone was running I9300XXEMA5 at the type-a Turkish variant. It seemed to be rooted-it had an SU program on there. Foolishly, I decided to move up to a BTU firmware that had XXEMG4. So, I moved to that stock firmware. While my IMEI and SN remain the same, I can only make emergency calls. I read about the changes that were brought about by XXEMG4 in terms of EFS. I neglected to make a backup beforehand, so I have since then been rolling forward-the last one I tried was a Chilean firmware with MH2. Doing this has brought about a slight improvement-my phone number was not registering before, but now it is. I still cannot make or receive calls though.

I am going to try a German Vodafone stock firmware with modem MJ1. I hope it works. Also, another thing: maybe it might be the SIM? I was using a full sized SIM from AT&T (my carrier) in my old phone when it was deactivated by the carrier when I went in to get a new micro SIM to put back in my S3. Could that cause a problem? I'm going to get another one from them today and see if that is the problem.

In the meantime, do any of you have any suggestions? The zuluman patch I hear does not work on firmware past July.

EDIT: I have read the sticky posted here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2393289, but I don't see any info about "no network" that pertains to my case.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] L0sT19:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Ariza patch doesn't work past July. Zuluman is a rework that does but these are only for serial number 0000 problems

Can't really say a lot else on this. You say there's nothing about "no network" in the sticky but actually its all about "no network".

Lots of words in post 1 here but no details do can't really help

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LostLess:
No problem. :)

UPDATE: Bumping up to the German Vodaphone with MJ1 didn't improve the situation. Also, the SIM works fine in another phone, so I don't think the SIM is suspect. I never had to unlock this phone (why would I need to do so? Moreover, it worked fine before SDS when I swapped between my regular AT&T and an international SIM I use for travelling)-maybe I need to do that now?

In the meantime, I am going to give L0St19's modem patch a go. If that does not work, I will try a custom ROM.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
AFAIK there is a modded XXEMG4 modem somewhere that in fact fixes network problem if you can't connect to it even with proper IMEI and efs v1/v2.

My friend had such problem and I couldn't get what may caused that, efs is fine, IMEI is fine and no network at all. I just made a research and we're talking about same thing - patch from zuluman. Trust me [MENTION=2872010]rootSU[/MENTION], it works even in such weird situations, not only 0000 problem.

However don't ask me why because even I have no idea. However if you run out of options with this problem try it -> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46585257&postcount=779

Firstly read carefully whole thread
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LostLess:
Hello JustArchi! I will take a look at that too. Thanks! :)

In the meantime, I have another update: I dropped back down to where it all started: a BTU I9300XXEMG4. After flashing, then doing a factory reset, it looks like things have improved again. However, this improvement is questionable: I consistently get a "Selected Network (AT&T) not available" message appearing. I thought it might be the SIM again, so I went to swap SIMs at the telco. No change-same result.

I'm beginning to think that the modem is not compatible for my part of the world (North America-US). I can't go back because I am no efs2 and I did not back up my efs1. My question now is: are there any modems past (or including) MG4 that will work here in the US?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LostLess:
Ok, JustArchi, I tried the patch, but when I applied it to modem.bin, and tried to flash with Odin, it fails. Going to try and fix that and try again.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
Download my flashable .zip -> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23869279/Temp/xxemg4.zip

Delete modem.bin from that, put your patched one. Now repack everything through 7-zip -> zip, deflate fastest compression. Now flash this .zip through (cwm) recovery, it will pass.

Maybe Odin doesn't like modified modems.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LostLess:
Ok, got it! I flashed this one. The flash was successful, but the problem remains. Thank you for your help though. :)

Modem.bin is fine with Odin, but there may have been something in the patch that it didn't like. I don't understand it-only two bytes changed.

Moreover, I've noticed that with this modem patch, the phone number becomes "Unknown". This seems to be a step down unfortunately.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustArchi:
Just flash my original xxemg4 then. Unfortunately I won't be able to help you further because honestly I don't know what may cause such issue.

Good luck tho.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LostLess:
Thank you for your help. I'm going to talk to mobiletechvideos.com about this. If I can't get help through them, this phone is going on eBay for spare parts. It's beginning to look like a lovely brick-it's a shame I'm not in the construction business.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LostLess:

I'll take a look at that sticky. I asked because someone had asked in a similar thread if that modem would work in the OP's country. I took this from a BTU (British Telecom), so I think it might not work. It's strange: before the SDS, I had a British firmware and ran it with no problem. Mind, I loaded this firmware almost a year ago to the month. A lot must have changed since-and for the worst apparently.

Trouble with achieving root.

I just got an HTC One, ran rumrunner and achieved S-Off, but not root. I used the correct rumrunner for the ROM I have (1.10.605.15). I realize I could flash a custom recovery, but I'm looking to just root and continue to use Sense with the stock recovery for the convenience of OTA updates.

I tried to use the "fastboot boot" command to load up an image of TWRP (2.6.3.3) and then install root from there, but for some reason my device just freezes on the fastboot screen despite what feedback my console is giving me. I tried waiting and then flushing the cache to see what the result was. Picture below. Any help is appreciated.
