[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkoreaper:
It would remove the nav bar, but would cause FCs. I did everything you suggested except for the trailing line at the end. Not sure how that makes a difference, but it wasn't mentioned at all anywhere else when i was researching it.

Anyway, I got it to work another way. I am using the Cataclysm ROM and with that i can reduce the nav bar size down to 0 and use something else like Pie Control until I find something better.

I'm sure they plan on incorporating fullscreen modes for all their apps, it just takes time.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nbsss:
Yeah anyone who thinks the N5 is perfect out of the box is deluding themselves...

I like to think of it as a clean slab of android, that you have to do some work to make it perfect

eg change DPI to 445, lmt + navbar hide, battery % mod, quick toggles, fullscreen mode via xposed framework, side launchers like 'swapps', gmd, lux for brightness control, the list goes on....hopefully all these things will work soon on 4.4...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aooga:
No phone is perfect, but the n5 is pretty close.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nbsss:
and more importantly, lets you make it perfect ;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxpower7:
Or (here's a crazy thought), maybe everyone whose opinion differs from yours isn't deluded. Maybe they just have different preferences than you. The smugness of these people who purport to speak for everyone else with this phone just blows my mind.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nbsss:
As someone mentioned two posts above, no phone is perfect....

this phone lets you make it perfect for your personal needs is my point, i'm not saying my way is right for everyone...everyone has preferences, as do I...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ehcool:
Personally i cant see a problem with it really like on screen buttons better than the hardware buttons that you find in phones like the S4 or One

but firstly there are a few things you should know if you dont already 4.4 has an immersion mode which auto hides the nav bar and status in games and other apps devs just need to support it so give it a while and i think this issue will be resolved
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nbsss:
Yeah i think immersion mode is a pretty awesome idea, hopefully more apps support it soon.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxpower7:
You acknowledge that everyone has their own preferences and yet call anyone who's happy with the phone out of the box (like me) "deluded?"

So what do you want from me exactly? Do you enjoy arguing with others? Well i don't, so just quit if you've got nothing useful to add to this discussion...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodvova:
It was not. Once you've used a phone without nav bar, where a 5 inch screen displays a full picture, you understand how much space is eaten up.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muyoso:
Its seriously not that much. I ran the Nexus 4 with PIE controls for months and months, and returning to the navigation bar took all of an hour to get used to again.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxpower7:
With my S4, I would regularly go back and forth between stock TW (full 5-inch display) and AOSP roms with the navbar enabled. I never found the difference jarring, and I never thought that the navbar took up too much screen real estate.

I'll concede though, I can see why some people don't like it. Personally, I despise pie controls but I love the navbar.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jridda10121:
I agree with this have HTC one am thinking about getting nexus five just for navbar stock experience like it but I hear that doing so wouldn't matter that much maybe for income tax time I'll get one. Love or hate the navbar it's there HTC one it isn't but I love stock experience just feels like I'm missing one thing that annoying nav bar.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scissors_cut_paper:
I thought the navbar was too big,but as suggested by others I just changed DPI settings. And the s2 screen is not the same size with the Navarre there,that's the transition I made and its nowhere close. Looking forward to enabling tablet mode though,not a fan of reaching to the top of a 5inch screen to get notifications.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ady1976:
I totally agree,coming from an htc one x that htc had an option to hide the 3 dot menu and had capacitive buttons is actually making me feel I've got a smaller screen which is annoying,why google did not have this as a default option is beyond me however I do love the device,all these apps that are available are pointless as they require root and not everyone wants to root...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmkilc:
You are complaining about the wrong thing. Complain about the size of the bottom bezel, not the fact the buttons happen to digital instead of physical. The anti-navbar crowd has never made sense to me. Physical buttons take up useful space. Navbar does not. Navbar buttons are versatile and can go away for certain circumstances (video, games).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lafester:
The bottom bezel is easily big enough for capacitive buttons... it looks empty without them and honestly I would rather have the screen space.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rmkilc:
That's not what I was saying. I was saying the bottom bezel should have been all screen.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elementaldragon:
I think that would have been even worse than having capacitive/hardware buttons. It's already bad enough with capacitive buttons, trying to play a video and accidentally touching them. Having the screen fill up the entire phone would make that even more insane, navbar or no navbar.

As for the OP, and everyone else wishing that EVERY app supported immersion mode like games and Youtube and such do... let me point something out for you.

How exactly would you bring back the navbar in Chrome or GMail or the like? Tap the screen? How would it know if you wanted the navbar to come back, or if you really wanted to read that e-mail about that special pill to make you... uuh... "feel better about yourself"? Slide up from the bottom of the screen? again... do you want the navbar to come back, or do you want to launch Google Now?

I actually don't mind the navbar. Yes, it could be slightly smaller, but it's not exactly gargantuan. And OP... exactly how are you trying to get your point across about it being "terrible" how much useful space it takes up, by posting a side-by-side picture where the phones are not only not zoomed in/out to about the same size, but the N5 is clearly showing "more" of the content you'd want to see... that being the list of threads?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackhand1001:
hiding the navbar that way has the unfortunate side effect of also disabling the overflow menus from showing up on the action bars.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
That's why I added a menu button to my pie control.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] f1ip:
So looking into the future I bet this scenario will happen.

~Google releases Nexus 5 v2 with screen all the way to the bottom to compensate for the nav bar.

~users who were annoyed of previous Nexus 5 now rejoice of new massive screen real estate. woohooo!!

~users now complain about missing notification light, usb port and speakers on the wrong side, still no stereo speakers!! outrage!!

~some users still complain about the Nav bar being too big.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] falcon26:
That is the one and only thing I like about Samsung phones. A physical home button so it doesn't take up half the screen. With the buttons on their like on the Nexus 5, your screen isn't really 4.99 inches like they claim. Actually viewable area is more like 4.5 inches. They should say that when advertizing cell phones like they do on monitors....
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elementaldragon:
1) doubtful. Don't see any reason for a phone manufacturer to make a full-panel phone. Not only would using the device, especially in landscape view, be annoying as hell... but i'm pretty sure it wouldn't be anywhere near as structurally sound due to having less space to attach the panel to. People think screens break easily now?

2) if 1 did happen... you might be right.

3) if 1 & 2 happen... again.... probably right.

4) see 2 & 3.

I honestly think it's fine the way it is.

.... if they did that.... they'd have to say "Occasionally 4.5 inches.... Occasionally 4.95 inches" It's a 4.95 inch VIEWABLE screen, whether the nav bar is there or not. Just that in some situations, the ability to hide it is overshadowed by the fact that it would not be easy to bring it back into view.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaosxq:
Great, its annoying me now! Thanks for that!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elementaldragon:
Yea. Love how people point out pointless stuff as if them pointing it out will make everyone suddenly think "Wow.... i never realized how annoying that thing at the bottom of the screen that i hardly ever really paid much attention to is".
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
You always swipe down from the top to exit "fullscreen" mode. Makes it super simple and unobtrusive. It should be supported with more apps for sure and the transparent bar should always be an option not just on the home screen.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dimmes:
full!screen

use "full!screen" its the best!!!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elementaldragon:
i'm not sure if you're saying that's how you exit fullscreen mode, or how you think you WOULD exit fullscreen mode if more apps supported it.

If the former.... i'm pretty sure it's just coincidence, since using the Break app or Youtube, all you have to do is touch anywhere on the screen, and everything comes back into view.

If the latter... again... there would be subtleties that might make it a bit odd. Are you swiping down because you want to use the nav bar? Or are you swiping down because you wanted to check your notifications? Maybe you're unintentionally swiping down because you're playing a game and didn't notice your finger started off-screen.... or you were scrolling down a webpage and didn't notice you started your swipe from off-screen.

Again... while yes, it would be nice to have every app under the sun support full-screen.... it just doesn't make sense to do so in quite a few cases.

Why is this even being discussed? Because someone is pissed that they can't look at the XDA forum in full screen, and see one more thread than they normally could have if the nav bar wasn't hidden? How lazy have people become where the idea of scrolling is too much to handle? Makes me feel like the people complaining also constantly rotate their monitor so they can look at websites in portrait view and see far more than they could in landscape. But oh wait... that's harder than scrolling.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
The built in functionality for the full screen mode in 4.4 is swipe down from the top to exit full screen. This will bring up the UI bar at the top and bottom but will not pull down notifications without additional input. If the UI isn't touched for a few seconds it will auto hide itself once again. This way there is little confusion as to what input was meant for what.

If you happen to need to reach the top of your app and swipe down which pulls up the status bar and home buttons this would only be as much of an inconvenience as not having full screen mode in the start.

It actually works quite well and just needs more implementation across the board with emphasis on the transparent home bar.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chad_Petree:
Where ? I think the buttons dissapear completely ONLY when you watch a video on the gallery / Google + ,YouTube , when you view pictures you get three dots on one side or and the hour ( on the Google + photo app )
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Look at the N5 face on. The body underneath the digitiser (below the nav bar) is not hollow. Believe it or not, its full of the inside of the phone.

To add capacitive buttons would mean that the space under the screen would need to be made bigger. That means 1 of 2 things.

1) make the phone body even longer

2) reclaim the screen space used by the nav bar - and put body there.

I wouldn't fancy a longer phone personally. I prefer the nav bar. The advantage of the navbar is that;

1) it COULD be used as screen in some apps

2) it could be programmed with multiple button functions instead of the same capacitive buttons instead. As it happens, the button functions change and so does the icon to reflect it. This wouldn't be possible without a nav bar.

So you could either have a disproportionate shaped phone or a smaller screen than now, or a navbar.

I vote navbar
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunielsoto:
I'm assuming this is a navbar notification... I was wondering if there was a way to stop this from coming up so much

[LG Nitro HD] Gypce:
I think it's pretty funny how I've talked to LG, AT&T, and google about a possible update to JB. All three seem to tell me it's up to the other one If there is an update to our Nitro. Neither want to take responsibility and give a straight answer.
[LG Nitro HD] audit13:
I don't think it's ever going to happen.

If you want JB, your best option would be to root, unlock bootloader, and load a custom rom.
[LG Nitro HD] Swetnes:
The irony in all of this is the LG escape got the JB upgrade and the only difference between that phone and our Nitro is a 4.3" screen and our CPU clocked @ 1.2 GHz.

Hi guys,

got my nexus 5 yesterday and wanted to flash AOSP. But at some time, something might have broken, because now I get a bootloop after factory reseting via Kwongger Nexus5 Toolkit, ADB sideload via CWM, via zip, ... I tried everything, wiped everything, erased anything via fastboot. When I boot into CWM, there are messages like "E: cant mount cache, invalid argument", so my prediction is, that something bad happened to partition table or likely. :confused:

Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this? I searched the whole internet up and down, comparing to other devices like nexus 4 which I use right now.

Every idea is well-appreciated ALOT :good:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Best thing to do imo atm is to flash a factory image in fastboot and reroot afterwards bro.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Natural_born_chilla:
Tried that like 500x times with different factory images, right from google, from toolkit etc., tried using fastboot, flash-all.bat from google factory images and flashed via adb sideload. Same thing everytime. Boot loop and it won't work ...

Edit: found this a minute ago http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47170893&postcount=291
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Go into recovery and clear the caches and do a data factory reset and see if it boots, if it doesn`t go into fastboot and flash a Google factory image. A good advice = DO NOT USE TOOKITS. Good luck bro

It's been stellar, and has an unbelievable number of options. It has rebooted on me in a week all of twice, which is way acceptable in my book compared to the bloat and stuff that comes on the LG rom. I love the rom, tons of themes out there on the playstore for 10.2, etc.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kapybarus:
So i tried CM M1 snapshot. Usage was same as with debloated stock LG rom. Sync on, wifi or internet on, some low brightness and some high brightness.

I think that even phone was used more with LG rom, for same period of time LG rom was at 78-80% and CM rom was at 69 %.

As you can see from screenshots, no wakelock on CM.

Second screen is display.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simorangkir_dcs:

It s quite big difference. Hope that future roms and kernels will improve battery compare to stock.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mandelbrot.Benoit:
Taking your battery to 69% after 18 hours with an hour screen on time is not an indication of anything other than great battery life for the first 18 HOURS!!

Then you DON'T post screen shots of the LG ROM and just say "I think" it was 10% higher and are upset?

At the rate you're going you'll be at 3 days with three hours screen on time!@!@ - Now

THAT

was a scientific calculation!!

For awhile i thought CM was better, but running the 11/7 version, it seems to be draining faster than stock :(
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drc13:
I haven't been particularly happy with my battery drain running AOSP (Cyanogen mod nightly at the moment) which is a pity because other than that it runs great.

What I've been doing is charging my phone up to 100% before going to bed then leaving it idle (connected to wifi) while monitoring it with BBS.

What I've found is it's draining at around 3-6%/hour. The strange thing is BBS shows that my phone is going into deep sleep mode so why the battery drain, possibly powermanagerservice wakelocks?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kapybarus:
I made second test. Tried to use CM and stock ROM in same way (browsing, fb, some videos, calls, mails) plus I greeniefied some apps and some system apps and with same screen time I have result 84% stock rom for 1:20 screen time and 70% for same screen time in CM M1 snapshot.

On both screen was mostly at 0%, sometimes about 30-40% .

Honestly, can´t find any explanation why CM drains more battery, every post or article just said that it was wakelock or that CM just drains more battery.
