I've had bootloop problems with cm after trying to downgrade from cm10.2. Wiping data, cache, etc didnt help, it still boot looped for me. A TWRP backup was the only thing that saved me. I have used this to get out of a soft brick before, maybe try that as a last resort? Good luck, and i recommend using twrp recovery instead of cwm, it has given me problems before. Good luck!

Hey I was driving home from work where I safely put my phone "hands free" and had it record over some loud music. I embarrassingly sang a little bit too, to show the recording capabilities.

Well, that definitely sounds better than when I've tried to use the N4 to record anything loud, but it's hard to tell how that volume compares to what I've tried to do. I'd love it if someone could record the same loud source on both an N4 and N5 to see if the microphone is any better or not.

Oh yeah i forgot i recorded it with my n4 too. Ill upload it in a bit.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmstlist:
I've noticed that iOS, Touchwiz and a few other vendor Android skins implement a sliding-scale auto-brightness: You can enable auto, but also slide the overall average brightness up and down. This is a simple solution for varying comfort levels: Brightness fiends can tune the auto higher and those with sensitive eyes can tune it lower. I am surprised stock Android has yet to implement this.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riprowan:
+1 for Lux. I had the battery-guzzling HTC Amaze ("you'll be AMAZED how fast your phone dies!" ). Lux would almost double my battery life when I programmed it with ultra-conservative (but still usable) settings.

If Google will update the auto brightness calibration everyone will start seeing much better battery life.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CitizenX:
Which Lux app do i need from the Play Store? There are many of them... :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] riprowan:
I use this one:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vito.lux

The trick is in setting up the profiles by hand, the automatic profile settings can be wonky.

Take some light measurements in dimmes light and establish the lowest level you can accept the screen. On an N5 this is probably all the way min. (At first you may find that it's pretty dim but Realize that you'll get used to this and later wonder why you liked the screen so bright.)

Then go into bright light and find the min level that you can accept. This might be all the way bright (on my Amaze, all the way bright was unnecessarily bright EVEN IN SUNLIGHT).

Then take a reading in a normal room and find the min acceptable brightness. This may still be all the way min.

You may want to sample a point or two in other light levels, usually 3-5 samples is enough if you suss out the power curve correctly.

Everyone loves iPhone battery life...

ever notice how conservative an iPhone's auto brightness setting is?

I'll go out on a limb and guess that, if the N5 is as aggressively bright in auto mode as everyone says (don't have mine yet), there's the possibility of getting an entire extra hour of SOT just by switching instead to very conservative auto-brightness settings.

Also if the min brightness is still pretty darn bright, there's a really good chance an update can knock that brightness down and stretch the battery even further.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] demarcmj:
So it seems some of the metal contacts broke off in my headphone jack and I need to replace it. It seems like a pretty straightforward fix but I don't know if the replacement part requires a Verizon-specific model or not.

Both of these websites say that it is compatible with the i535 but I'm not 100% convinced.

http://www.globaldirectparts.com/product-p/smsng6115835-9qs.htm

http://www.durapowerglobal.com/Sams...placement-Includes-Headphone-Jack_p_5868.html

Looking at mine, there appear to be some traces or something near the corners, which I imagine are antenna-related, and I don't see these in any of the pictures of the replacement part.

Does anyone have any insight here? Perhaps anyone who's done it and can confirm that its a universal part?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] demarcmj:
I just saw a dissasembly video on youtube that identified the antennas on this part. The one near the flash LED is the GPS antenna and the one near the speaker is the GPS antenna. Since these are the same on all SGSIII models, I'm more convinced that this part should be Verizon-compatible. I also was able to make them out on a few pictures, not sure why I missed it before.

I was going to delete the question altogether, since I'm pretty confident now, but figured I'd leave it up for any future googlers down the line...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I'm actually preparing to do this same thing as well with my blue S3. Ordered the headphone jack a few hours ago. My headphone jack has only played audio in the right ear for the last month and a half. Looks simple enough to do according to iFixit.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fussgeist:
I did this repair myself (different break though, mine just quit working).

Can't remember the link I used, but the speaker/headphone module seems to be universal. The part I used listed it for the several models, but not i535 but worked fine.

Think I got it on eBay with a Buy-it-now for $7 plus shipping.

Really easy repair too, just be careful popping out the module connections.

Same issue I had. Easy, quick fix and been working fine since February.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
That's really encouraging, my friend. Glad it's gone over so well for you since replacement. Quick question, did you purchase an opening tool to separate the headphone jack component from the phone? Just curious what you used to separate it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fussgeist:
I did use some plastic tools, but I don't think it was entirely neccessary, made popping the module connections easier though.

I got the 2 item set from Fixit (found a $x off coupon, and managed to get 2 sets for free and only paid a couple dollars for shipping).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I might purchase those, they looked like a solid purchase. I was going to check my a few stores to see if they had any first.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Just got my replacement headphone jack from ebay, switched it out with my S3, and I can listen to audio in both ears again! It's been about two months since I could do this and it only took a few minutes to get set up. :D

It's in an image. Scroll down further, it's under "7 Layer Protection"
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gsrrr:
If I had to guess, I'd say this isn't glass like the more expensive Spigen ones. It shows as having 7 layers and it looks like only the PET kind of screen protectors are multi layers.

Yup, it's not real glass.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] 1lazysheep:
to be fair, the product in the link you provided doesn't mention anything about "tempered glass" in the description like the one in the OP. it also details only a 4-layer screen protector, unlike the 7 advertised in the OP.

but i also can't say for sure it's real glass either. dafuq is "tempered glass film?" and i also don't see a cutout for the earpiece speaker at the top. it's probably an error in the render, but you never know. these were on sale before any customers even received their phones.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gsrrr:
You are (were?) correct when you say that the item from my link did not say tempered glass yesterday but I just checked again and it does mention it now. It looks like they updated their images and it also shows that is it 7 layers, just like the item OP linked.

I was hoping this would actually be glass at such a cheap price. I would have picked one up too.

EDIT//

It looks like the same question was asked and they replied. But what the hell is tempered glass film? It's either tempered glass or it's a film (PET).
[Nexus 5 Accessories] AGiLiT:
It's simple - "You've got a screen made out of tempered glass? We've got a film to cover it." Don't know why that isn't obvious from the product's name. :D
[Nexus 5 Accessories] heshamtecom:
I heard good news about Spigen one, so I am probably going for it
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jeremy8000:
If you're not going to be using a case, be sure to get the 'R' model with the rounded edges; the normal one, with squared edges and without a case protecting those edges, is far more susceptible to chipping.

I'll never go back to a film protector again. Tempered glass is more expensive, true, but it lasts far longer (it will be pristine after several film SP's have degraded due to normal wear and tear), is as invisible as possible, has greater clarity, allows more light through, has no rainbow issues, orange peel effect, stretching.... and it feels exactly like the original screen.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] 1lazysheep:
it was actually me who posted that question. and i agree - it's either glass or PET, not both. perhaps something isn't being translated correctly?

regardless, i think i'm going to hold off on this one. $9 bucks would have been nice, but i'd rather pay a little more for real a real glass screen protector
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Z51:
Just ordered one because of the price. Thanks for the heads up.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] FloppyDrive:
Unfortunately there are too many people having issues with the Spigens, which means we are forced to use plastic films until someone comes out with a non-defective glass protector.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] 1lazysheep:
really? what issues are they having? can't say that i'm surprised though. Spigen had those things on sale even before the phones came out, so there's no way they could have done any testing
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Z51:
just received mine and its a regular screen protector, only a bit thicker. it went on PERFECTLY. no air bubbles or dirt trapped underneath. im VERY pleased with it. it has a cutout at the bottom where the notification light is aswell.
