[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KinTharEl:
Hello everyone. I recently bought a new Nexus 4,and was supremely satisfied with it. But around one and a half months after purchase, it seems as though the battery dies a lot faster than it used to. A note must be mentioned that since the battery percentage isn't shown by default on the status bar, I installed a third party battery app from the play store. Is it just my imagination or does the battery really die as fast as I'm experiencing it now? My usage of the phone is fairly heavy, with a lot of browsing through 3G,and I go over to my friends house to run torrents on his wifi (with his permission of course). The battery under constant use lasts around 7 hours with 10-15% left. I'm using the stock Android atm, Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. I'll consider flashing a custom rom after a few months, seeing as the phone is fairly new.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tricepz:
It's impossible to analyze battery problems without screenshot's of your usage and SOT (screen on time).

I'd even suggest to install BBS / WLD in order to troubleshoot if any program is keeping the phone awake etc', but first we need to see the battery details.

Your stats don't seem that bad to me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisM75:
What are your screen viewing angles like? Mine seems to be quite poor, it washes out off centre quite a lot. Im wondering if I have a bad unit or if its just normal for the N5.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marck527:
Looks good to me. Haven't received mine so I don't know if it's a bad unit.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisM75:
Not compared to what im used to it isnt. My last few devices have been AMOLED screens (no comparing to these, just a comment) or the HTC One LCD3 which has perfect viewing angles with no changes to the screen at any angles at all. Its somewhat worse than my Nexus 10.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mith500:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DevShaft:
That's normal for LCD, that's called backlight. Nothing faulty here. I also own the HTC One and it has the same effect as well when you tilt the screen.

EDIT: I see what you mean now, when tilting the screen exactly like you do (45 degrees vert/hor). It still is not a faulty unit, it's just that LG has less prevented the backlight from coming through. Maybe its because of the slim bevel. I have seen it on other LG devices before though.

To answer your question, I think it's normal for the N5 :).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisM75:
Well my HTC One doesnt change at all at any angle. The screen is perfect even if you look at it from the edge of the phone all colours and lighting are perfect!

Im fine with it if its normal for the N5, but if there are better units id prefer one of those.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
This does not seem right. Now i don't have my N5 yet, but on my N4 i can look at it from almost 180 degrees and it loses almost nothing no matter how i look at it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunatje:
I have the same problem. When I turn my Nexus 180° my screen isn't visible anymore. Is it normal?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Outrager:
I see what you did there.

But on topic, when you see a phone screen is IPS you kind of expect it to look great from off angles.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tunatje:
I totally agree with you. But dude, it looks great in any way.It has also to do with brightness. Throttle your brightness slider all the way to right en your N5 has perfect viewing angle. Even with 90 degrees. I had the Z1 before the Nexus 5. I must say the Nexus 5 does a waaaay beter job than the Z1. So I ain't complaining right now.

Might be a personal thing. After all, everything looks beter than TFT(regarding viewing angles).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Outrager:
Yup. I spoiled myself since my first LCD monitor was an IPS screen so when I look at TN screens I can't stand them.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diverblue:
The poor viewing angles of my Nexus 4 has been one of my biggest gripes with the device. I popped into the carphone warehouse today to check the viewing angles of the Nexus 5 and from what I can see it suffers from the same problem :( Not as bad as the Z1 but not as good as devices like the HTC One from what I can see. Shame.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
Getting my N5 today so i'll do some experimenting. my N4 has perfect viewing angles from anywhere. only very slight discoloration. nothing like OP's picture.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diverblue:
So good displays are out there on the N4... I'm on my second device but both have had pretty terrible displays :(
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
yeah i guess i just got lucky, and if that video comparing it with the oppo is legit that i'm insanely disappointed. If the screen is that bad i'm returning mine. I'd love to have the better camera and some of the other features but i'm not going to keep a garbage screen.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FILLY86:
Crappy screen is a no go. I will receive mine on saturday. If it also has this **** angles, i will return it.

FU LG for producing such a ****ty Display. I want HTC to produce the next nexus!!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
Honestly, the N4 really made me want to just swear off nexus phones, but no one else is making phones that i really like, or more importantly that actually follow the guidelines with onscreen keys and the like. or their phones are huge like samsung.

I was really hoping that the N4 could be the last phone i buy for maybe even a couple years. I hate buying a new one each year but the N4 has just never been an enjoyable device for me. I was hoping the N5 could and for the camera and many other features it looks like it will be but if i can only look at my screen head on, that's worse than my N4 and not worth $430.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grudas:
that video is legit, I took it lol.. :) its not that bad in real life the video ex-generates a bit due to the fact that the camera needs to re-adjust the exposure - you can see where I move the camera and it takes a couple of seconds for the screen to show anything on nexus 5.. :)

then again find 5 has an EPIC screen - compare it to s4/htc one etc so its the perfect benchmark as far as it goes.

and its better than n4! :) trust me on this.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
Well i'll know at some point in the next 5-7 hours whenever UPS shows up.

Right now my N4 screen is no where near as good as the Oppo in your video, blacks do not stay black they do turn grey when on max brightness but there is very minor, if any discoloration even looking at it almost sideways. I wouldn't mind the N5 not having full 178 degrees like a standard IPS but hopefully as you say it is better and won't be anywhere near as noticeable. Theres also a lot less black in android 4.4 so that should help as well.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grudas:
it is better than nexus 4 without a doubt :) oppo as I've said have nailed the screen on the device! it's hard to make it better IMO and I've compared that with HTC One and S4 and those are still my top 3 phones! :)

Moving from Oppo to nexus 5 genuinely It doesn't bother me too much :eek:

here's how I personally find the viewing angles and where the colours wash out the worst -;
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neok44:
I'd agree to that 100%. left right up down are almost no difference on my N4, angles are bad, but maybe only half way as bad as your video.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marleyfan61:
I can't see the screen on my N5 from ANY angle at all! I'm hoping that improves once it actually arrives.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanja_z:
Mine is just as bad, honestly the worst screen I've seen in many years.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rachit_rm:
Hello, I was having my Mobile phone in my pocket (SK17i). I took it out and suddenly it touch screen stopped working.

I was having MIUI 3 on my mobile with Extended Xperia Kernel.

I just want to know, what has occured, I mean if it is Software problem, or a hardware problem :) as there is no damage to mobile screen, not a scratch. The touch button, i.e. back button and menu button work properly, just the touchscreen is not responding.

I have tried to change the ROM to original one. Changed the Kernel too. Still no response.

Kindly help me. Please :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] n.inacio:
Sorry mate, but all indicates hardware malfunction.

I got a similar problem with a different phone wen it spilled some cafe on it (very little).

I opened, cleaned and everything worked except touchscreen.

Could it be some humidity on the phone?

(hope you didn't pissed your pants :P)

Anyway, for this phone you can order a new LCD + Touch from the ebay and assemble yourself with a tutorial on FixIt (google it).

If it still has warranty just send it back ;)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ankydu:
I am on latest stock indian jellybean rom, unrooted. My Note has become extreeemely sluggish and it takes ages to open apps. For example, if I am listening to a song, and I try to tag it with shazam or sound hound, they take ages to open and by the time the song has already finished. Secondly, when my friends ask me to click a pic of theirs at any moment, it feels very bad that the camera takes ages to open.

I want to know, if I root the device, and use the greenify app to freeze unwanted system apps, can my phone become reasonably alright. Also if I want to root without flashing any kernal or roms, is it possible. PLease help !!!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trinev:
I think you should smash you Galaxy Note.

I don't know what a "Kernal" is but if you want to stay stock why dont you just reset factory settings from the phone setting, it will be as good as it was when you bought it.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] han777:
Sorry , but I think you should just flash it to AOSP roms . I experienced what you are currently having right now the sluggishness , it's all Samsung's part to blame , they ruined the Jelly Bean for the Note 1 , I can confirm that ICS was running way smoother than JB too!

Even tried Custom TW rom with JB , still the same laggyness , opening the Gallery app would take a long time compared to other roms. So my advice is to just ditch TouchWiz Jelly Bean for the note 1.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CONTACTMC:
The answer to your problem is simple. Install sweet ROM version 10 with c.o.h kernel and greenify. Then install nova launcher if you want a butter smooth ui. My phone runs like lightning...has great battery life as well. Stock Samsung roms run like crap as they want you to buy a new phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noneym86:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v_square:
Use ics if you want stock experience as well as smoothness. Stock Jelly bean for note is total crap. And yes, use a different launcher if you want to preserve 100 mb RAM.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeCastellon:
I went for P.A.C. running 4.3.1, and it's a world of a difference! Battery is great, performance is great, and has so many features that it's so much fun to customize.

I do prefer stock, but ICS has that scary bug that can brick your phone and JB for the Note is like a sewer. Thankfully my company is giving me a S4 Mini in the next few days...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daimonart:
The phone is easy enough to root - two files in the main int. memory directory if I remember correctly, and boot into the normal recovery mode to install them.

CM10.2 ran very well for me. Stable, better battery life, more responsive (for a two year old phone anyhow).

I'm currently on PAC as well because I like the extra options, but the cost of these new toys does seem to be minor stability issues, although that could be in part due to the number of memory intensive apps I tend to have running.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
Instead of freezing them, just uninstall using tb so will free some space in the system partition. Use the supersu.zip file to root. File can be found in many rooting tutorials in the forum.

FPSE is by and away the best emulator i've used for the PSX, it's rock solid.

Tiger Mame for Arcade emulation.

N64oid for N64

NeoDroid for NEOGEO

All of these are aimed at recreating the actual game at the right framerate and with the right graphics, FPSE does this well, even though ePSXe does a better job at speed, this is becoming less noticeable with stronger hardware and FPSE is coming into it's own, N64oid also allows better control with the analogue sticks on Six axis controllers.

Tiger mame (besides some rom's messing up on sound and some incompatibility) for what games it runs it runs them perfectly, I don't think it's updated no more, but it's still very capable.

NeoDroid, what can i say, this is the only NEOGEO emulator that i would ever use, it's perfect.

Just my bit of input :)

Hi!

Got a Nexus 5 and I need to root (only) in order to be able to use TitaniumBackup Pro (restore), WatchDroid (anti-theft), and Tasker. My old Android phone was already rooted when I bought it, so I am not very familiar with rooting itself yet. (hence this perfect forum username of mine :)

I found http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2507905 which is a very cool piece of documentation.

However: I do not want to lose OTA for now in order to get the next updates and in order not to modify my new Nexus 5 more than needed.

The instruction (URL above) tells me that a "custom recovery is necessary to do [rooting]". Another statement (later on) is "As long as you keep the stock kernel, and the stock recovery, you will be able to receive OTAs."

So is this correct that I am going to lose OTA when I root my Nexus 5 in any case?

Thanks!

StressLocator

features

HRV measure

physical index, relaxation and concentration index.

pulse, poincare etc.

biofeedback and measure score to world topten

possibility to anonymous sending data to maps

The StressLocator Application is based on thesis by Adam Solc who studied at the Czech Technical University. His thesis focused on Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and its use in therapeutic praxis. On the basis of numerous studies is established the StressLocator Application.

Free version is for every device with camera with flashlight, this is main reason why I'm writing here.

popular new feature is world contest - you can measure your ability to increase concentration or relaxation. It's not in video :(.

App video (demo version)

[YOUTUBE]LQpowNdrdmQ[/YOUTUBE]

How to install

From Google play

Please focus on usability with a camera on your mobile. Note: your finger put on the camera with flashlight but some flashlights are warm, please be carefully and measure is good when you have finger only on camera and 3mm above flashlight.

Long Description

The application is based on analysis of HRV (Heart Rate Variability). Psychosomatic values are calculated from measured data and they represent current physical strength and mental balance. Uniqueness of this application is full visualization of the mathematical background and real time graphs. It can serve to those who want to go deeper into the subject. Due to two minute measurement, the application can gather sufficient amount of relevant data, which are very precise. For the ordinary users the StressLocator offers quick explanation with some tips with what to do. Huge advantage is also an option to increase your concentration or relaxation level with the breathing trainer. The progress, a user is making is visible on screen in real time. A user can also check the outcome by new measurement at the end of breathing exercise. It all creates a system in which the user can check his current condition improve it and check it again. The StressLocator can not only monitor but can also help shift mental condition toward currently desired state.

Thank you
