[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gingerneil:
All,

The N5 looks excellent, and after fondling one in the local CPW in the UK today, I have decided to swap my Note2.

One question - looking on AOSP, I cant see which kernel the N5 is running. Others have said 3.4 (thanks), but which build files do I need from:

http://source.android.com/source/building-kernels.html#figuring-out-which-kernel-to-build

??

I suspect I will need to build ethernet USB OTG kernel modules as I did for my Note2 (unless, or course, they are pre built and included like in the N7).
[Zooper Widget General] Myrrhman:
I would like to request a feature.

A long-press option to bring up a small window with the option to delete widgets in the SD Card list, Autosave list and the Configure widgets list.

That would make things a lot easier than using a file explorer.

Is this possible ?
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] btort1:
I need a converter because I live in the US, the converter the seller gave me is cheap, and falls right off unless I hold it into place on the wall charger.

I bought these but they did not fit

[Xperia Z1 Accessories] nightic:
That's a UK (3-pin) plug.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] DAddYE:
Go to RadioShack with your charger and they'll give you a perfect adapter. They are quite pricey but I needed it for other stuff. Ah yes mine works perfectly with the UK adapter
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] PGTrips:
That is definitely a UK adapter, i think you should be able to purchase an adapter from any electrical shop :D.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] white lie:
For the cost of the adapter, I'd just buy a local USB charger instead
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] tthaz777:

Remove the USB cable and use a normal plug with it, don't mess around with pricey adaptors, it's a waste of money.

Is there a possibility to port the qpair app and the knock on feature from the G Pad to the nexus 7?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] iamezio:
Knock On is Double tap to wake and comes with most custom kernels ..

As of QPair , i don't recall anything similar for android..

[Nexus 5 General] Dan1909:
So, now that a few of us are finally getting our hands on the devices, let’s get some proper user benchmarks going! Mine should be with me in the next couple of days, but hopefully there’s enough people with phones now to get a good set! Let's see how the snapdragon 800 with pure android compares with the rest of the pack...

EDIT - Let's get a leader board going! :D I'll only post scores backed up with a screenshot showing the score. (Yes, I know, benchmarks don't really mean that much...)

Geekbench 2 - 4,961 - Simms22

Antutu - 40,723 - Simms22

Quadrant - 30,497 - Simms22

Linpack - 1259 - Simms22

Sunspider - 536 ms (Chrome (/beta)) - Simms22

3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited - 17902 - Newbieandroid

Some suggestions to get going (obviously there will be more that people can run if they want) :)

Sunspider

GFXBench (GLBenchmark 2.7)

3D Mark

Google Octane

Mozilla Kraken

BrowserMark (2.0)

Vellamo

Linpack

Quadrant

AntuTu

Also it would be nice to see what the read/write speeds of the internal memory are like, so if anyone could post those up it would be great!
[Nexus 5 General] big_b0sss:
Here you go for an antutu for ya
[Nexus 5 General] dazed1:
Not really impressive, throttling? :(
[Nexus 5 General] italia0101:
the note 3 cheats.... BIG TIME
[Nexus 5 General] dazed1:
S4 cheats also?
[Nexus 5 General] italia0101:
Yea....

go here http://www.anandtech.com/show/7384/

and look at the table.. the note 3 basically cheats in all
[Nexus 5 General] Dan1909:
Thanks!

Could you run any more, perhaps Sunspider for us and see what it manages?
[Nexus 5 General] dazed1:
So you want to tell me that clocking higher like 10-15% S600 should match S800? sorry but but that's just not possible there is an issue with the N5 being tested imho, the S800 should destroy the S600 no matter of the cheats, they are equal on the graphs.
[Nexus 5 General] wazka2:
A bit dissapointed with the results....
[Nexus 5 General] br0adband:
Try changing the compiler from Dalvik to ART and see if you get better results (it's under Developer Options).
[Nexus 5 General] wazka2:
Even worse now.
[Nexus 5 General] proxuser:
Install normal antutu and try again. Looks like you have antutu x.

22000 I get with my s4 mini with o/c 2.11ghz ;)
[Nexus 5 General] Yadao:
I thought people were over doing benchmarks like this. Real world usage is the best benchmark.
[Nexus 5 General] italia0101:
Not sure what your on about... The note 3 has a snapdragon 800 not a 600

Edit: Oh if you mean the s4, I believe that's the octa core variant not snapdragon. Don't quote me though

And let's not forget, Samsung and others put loads of optimisations for benchmarks that increase the scores, if you had the n4 I'm sure you would have heard of the dalvik patches from the s4? They increased benchmarks from 17-18 to 21k without any oc.
[Nexus 5 General] wazka2:
Back on default settings. Normal antutu, test done after reboot.
[Nexus 5 General] omrij:
Anyone willing to benchmark in a plastic bag in the freezer? ;)
[Nexus 5 General] aohus:
surprised people in this forum actually still believe in benchmarks.

the sammy phones as well as other brands cheat.

motorola and google do not 'tweak' to get better benchmarks.
[Nexus 5 General] meangreenie:
Google crap always comes without dalvik and krait optimisations. Those scores were totally expected.

Give xda devs some time and they will sort it.
[Nexus 5 General] BoneXDA:
Please for the love of God, forget AnTuTu! It's easy to rig and it measures I/O, memory etc., and inconsistently, therefore it doesn't give usable individual benchmarks.

Nexus 5 owners need to run AnandTech's test apps, 3D Mark, Sunspider, Browsermark, Vellamo, Basemark, GLBenchmark, Epic Citadel and Google Octane.
[Nexus 5 General] dazed1:
Bro, just to be clear here. I'm not saying anything bad for the N5, i'm huge fan of it, just the results was a bit off. Thanks for the explanation. Also I/O i dont get how is that affected, its S800, how come I/O can be average?

Sorry Android/mobile noob here :D
[Nexus 5 General] King ov Hell:
*If you don't like this one you can post your suggestions but stop fulminating you're just trolling.

[Nexus 5 General] dbellonate:
I have created a flashable zip for you to remove the items you listed. As standard I take no responsibility should something go wrong, so make a backup just in case. I use this same zip everyday to remove bloat after flashing nightlies so I see no reason for something to not work. Let me know though if something needs to be tweaked or if it doesn't work.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/2k0gv9hze67zppq/hammerhead_debloat.zip
[Nexus 5 General] King ov Hell:
Thank you dude.OP will updated

I don't know how to create flashable zip but as far as i know we can edit update-script ? Can I modify it too ?
[Nexus 5 General] tehdef:
TIL that GAPPS is Bloatware.
[Nexus 5 General] MasterGGM:
I do not consider 90% of those bloatware. It just looks like you're removing all the Google apps that can be downloaded manually from the play store.
[Nexus 5 General] sluflyer06:
I give this thread 1 derp vote. I think you need to re-check what bloatware is, I'll give you a hint its not the apps that provide half the core functionality of Android.

I have a startac you might enjoy.
[Nexus 5 General] NicholasQ:
OP, don't listen to the derps who can't grasp the concept that bloatware is subjective.

This is the approach that SlimRom takes. Which is to remove all apps and associated files that are NOT ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY for android to function. It leaves the user to determine which apps they want to install.

Thank you op for this thread. I too like to remove apps that I never use.

It's all about CHOICE. People are free to customize their ROM, however they want. And this is obviously not a tweak that a newbie should be doing anyway.
[Nexus 5 General] Aerys:
Removing Hangouts APK will also break sms functionality.
[Nexus 5 General] dbellonate:
If you use 7zip just right click file, open archive (don't unzip) and navigate to update-script. Then add or remove as you please. Just follow the scripts as I have entered them and it should work just fine :)
[Nexus 5 General] King ov Hell:
Thanks for support guys!

And thank you haters.You gave me a cr*ppy feeling again
[Nexus 5 General] NicholasQ:
If people report a function of android that gets broken with a removal of a particular app, maybe put a comment next to it saying what it breaks. Like how removing hangouts breaks sms.

Most apps are self-explanatory, but sometimes there are things that don't work that you wouldn't know unless you tried.

This thread can be great, sort of like a wiki for system app functionality.
[Nexus 5 General] AJM-hackers:
Hey,

First off, this is great! Don't pay any attention to the haters and the trolls who have nothing better to do. A couple of suggestions, could you do one for deodex, secondly it would be cool if someone could create an aroma out of this do that there is some choice, also do that there is an option to replace the removed apps with apks, backups on the internal storage. Edit: removing hangouts does not break sms, I tried it. IMO the holo blue messaging app on xda is way better
[Nexus 5 General] King ov Hell:
* Script is just for optional I created this thread for list.Script is not made by me,

* FOR BACKUP : Yes good idea, we can move apps to internel storage instead of removing them.

I don't think the thread is "great" but I'll update later :rolleyes: thanks again.

hi

my camera dont work becuse unlock bootloader and i dont have TA backup

so i think if any someone can do backup from TWRP recovery and up to site and i download it and install it.. will be work

someone can do this for me ?

i will whant try this and dont scare from hard break

tnx
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 301stSpartan:
No. If you unlocked the bootloader without backing up the TA partition you are out of luck. A TWRP backup won't help you. And if you try and restore the TA partition from someone else's phone you will HARD BRICK your device. There is nothing you can do except wait and pray that Sony fixes the bootloader issue and when they do somehow your camera will work again.

I need your guys input on this basically I got this phone on a swap off craigslist. The phone is on 4.3 and was already unlocked with TWRP. My only problem is the battery is charging extremely slow I mean like it was on charge for 3 hours and only went from 30 to 80 percent.

It seems when I open the contact "Myself", my gmail password is actually displayed just under my email.

I sync my gmail contacts as well as my work gmail contacts.

Haven't tried turning off all contacts but was wondering if anybody also noticed the same issue?

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neuropsychosis:
Going pure google is not that big nowadays, the gap between manufacturer roms and pure android is not that big. Manufacturer roms actually have an advantage now. All you need is root to get rid of the stuff you dont use and you're good.

Manufacturer Roms normally have better graphics, sounds, cameras and better customization. The fact that you cant even make a folder in the kitkat app drawer is a big letdown. Sure the n5 is newer but to say it's better? That would be hard to tell. Maybe the next Nexus will be but it's too soon, tech hasn't evolved much since Z's release.
