There are a lot of people with the same problem. My new RMA is yellowish when I compare it to my old N5 which I will ship back! Pretty annoying but not noticeable when I just use the phone.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenhi:
Left - N5 16 GB white, ordered more than a month ago

Right - N5 16 GB black arrived few days ago.

Photo is taken with N7, and unfortunately the difference is not that visible as IRL, but I hope that it is still visible.

(Both phones were set to 100% brightness)

Strange part is that yellow tint is not visible when I tilt my phone away from my eyes and when watching it from CCA 45 degrees angle.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compact70:
When i first received my nexus 5 (2 weeks ago) it didn't look all that yellow maybe a tiny bit. i compared it to my nexus 7(2012) and found it a bit too yellow for my liking.

After 2 weeks of usage the yellow looks completely gone to me. i compared again and saw that the nexus 7 was a bit reddish looking.

I saw on some forums that because the glue beneath the screen wasn't dried yet that caused it to be yellow. But now it looks great!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
I consider it a hardware defect but its also a panel lottery, how yellow your device is compared to the "warm" and "normal" colors on the N5 is anyone elses guess. Mine was pretty yellow but the phantom kernel based on franco's fixed it right up for me though its a little bit blue now but it is significantly better than a yellow tinted screen.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradellis51:
The yellow tint will go away after a couple weeks. Don't worry about it. It will disappear
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adey64:
hi is this from your experience from owning the device ?...so if it goes away would it be due to the glue or something?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bagou01:
same question here, bought it yesterday, and yellow as hell compared to my N7... what do you base on when saying it will disappear?

thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragn4rce:
Yeah mine was yellow compared to the my mom's and brother's moto x. But my whites are better then their whites.

This is why reviews usually suck. They test for several hours and review. No not good enough.

MKBHD did his right (sort of). He did a first impression and didn't like it 100%. Turns out, after a while he realizes it is like a shoe, gotta break her in till it's comfortable.

Patience is key.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bagou01:
well, sorry but after MKBHD, i didn't get what you are saying :-p
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragn4rce:
I'm saying break in your nexus 5. It will adjust and get better over time.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bagou01:
still sorry, (english is not my mother tongue), what do you mean by break in? open it?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragn4rce:
Oooh OK lol. Breaking in means use something long enough and it'll actually improve.

You learned something new today. :p
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adey64:
so the question remains, has your yellow tint got better/dissapeared over time?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragn4rce:
Ya. It was yellow at first compared to the moto X. Now mine has better whites.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adey64:
ok great! that is nice to know
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmmmBACON:
Awesome dude! :laugh:

That was the best thing I've read all night!

Break in = Just use it a lot until things smooth out.

The screen will correct itself "the more you use the phone."

I've noticed the same yellow tint on the 312K model here in the Belgium shop (MediaMarkt) to. It's like the white is not completely white in comparison with other phones on display. It's even more greyish, even when putting it on maximum brightness. Waiting for the next batch, because I really really want this Nexus 5 badly. Let's hope Google and LG will fix it soon..

Just an FYI - I've RMA'd 3 of these so far for non-screen reasons. My latest replacement has a noticeably "yellower" screen than the old one. BUT...

Here's the thing. I think we're so used to blueish tinted phones that we're conditioned to think they are color-accurate. As an experiment, I held up my new replacement and the prior one to my LCD monitor, which is professionally calibrated every 3 months (I'm a photographer so it has to be dead-on). The new "yellower" screen Nexus 5 nearly matches the whites/grays on my LCD screen. In other words, the "yellower" screen Nexus 5s are in fact more color accurate. While it may not be your preference, I don't consider it a glitch, at least in my case.

Yellow screen has a cinema tone as in many TV.

You can easily fix this issue if you don't like it by downloading "Screen adjuster" app and calibrate blue level +15 more or less.

just went to the shop to compare my nexus to a new nexus and the new nexus is yellower...i remember mine being that yellow in the beginning and now its neutral whites!..i guess its glue after all (mines 401k so kinda new too...used for a mth then the yellow dissapears slowly)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
Your phone might not of been as yellow as these latest screens though, it just had to be warmer than whatever you could compare it to at that time. N5 screen is supposed to be warm (about 7000k) but these are noticeably more yellow and dulled. It's as if they're calibrating for an even warmer colour temperature, lower gamma, or weakening the backlight to save battery perhaps.

ohh..wish i tooka photo to compare when first got it and now

Colors appear warmer on the nexus 5. Flash the elemental x kernel & select slightly cooler colours during the installation. I'm loving my display now.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techno_Funky:
I got a new Nexus 5 today and immediately noticing this yellow tint issue. Should I go in for a RMA or stick with it, I also know about the franko kernal. But since this is a brand new device shouldnt it be perfect out of the box.

Comparison between Nexus 5, Asus Zenfone 5, Galaxy S3.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
Looks better than the Zenfone at least. I'll take a warm colour temperature over a cool one any day.

Did you RMA the Zenfone for "blue tint"?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techno_Funky:
Lol, no I did not RMA the Zenfone, I found it to be better on the eye of the lot. But I am guessing that is how the Nexus 5 screen is so I guess I should keep the Nexus 5.

Sorry to bother you guy's about this but did anyone with a yellowish screen did see an improvement after a few months if use? Is the glue theory true?

[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dshook1979:
Hi everyone, I'm back with more questions. But first let me give a huge thanks to all that have helped me with other things. You guys helped me go from some who was terrified of the though of rooting and flashing to someone who not only rooted but has tried a few different Roms. That's huge for me as I am not a technically minded person. Thanks everyone! I hope I can help someone someday as much as in have been helped here.

Now for my question.

Since I have flashes my first custom ROM I have been getting horrible data speeds on 3g and 4g. I'm talking it takes me back to the AOL dial up days kind of slow.

I figured that I needed to update my prl/profile so I asked how to, and i did that. But no change in data speeds.

So here I am scratching my head as what to do next. Any suggestions?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Androidawg:
We need more info. What ROM are you currently on? Have you tried updating the APN file? If you flash the latest Carbon you will have the best speeds available for AOSP based ROMs. If you flash nexOgen or Optimus you will be on Stock based Roms that have slightly better data speeds. Or you LGNPST back to the orginal factory set up and see if that makes a difference.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Dshook1979:
Lol I forgot to include the info.

I'm running the latest carbon nightly 4.3

Honestly I haven't a clue what a apn file is so I don't believe I have updated it. How would I go about doing that?

I was playing and comparing the Nexus 5 with the LG G2 device and I noticed a pretty cool function. You can double tap the screen to turn on and off the phone... Not sure if this is a LG launcher proprietary app or something you can install with a 3rd party. I think it'll be cool to have it on the Nexus 5. Does any body have an idea of what possible apps that can do this for the nexus 5?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dagaetch:
LG function. Several custom kernels have supported this feature on other devices, so we can hope it comes to the N5.
[Nexus 5 General] djskarpia:
I read lot of posts where people is asking himself if the nexus 5 vibration is normal or not (seems like a truck). I'm here to CLARIFY the question. I can do this because fortunately i bought 2 phones (1 for me and 1 for my girlfriend) and i have 1 faulty and 1 not.

To explain better i can 100% says that the sounds i listened into the defect thread is exactly like my phone (the faulty one - 32gb white) and the other one (32 gb - black) is totally DIFFERENT AND NORMAL, so guys i know lot of you are happy to have a vibrator in their hands but trust me and check with someone else you meet : is FAULTY ,the right one is normal, like any other phone (to be honest isn't a good quality vibration like my htc one for example, but it doesn't sound loud as the faulty).

and few words about this:

I know guys that everyone here loves google, me too, but i'm objective. If you sell a phone and for example os is not 100% stable, i can understand, i wait updates and it's ok; if you don't put a 2$ earphones inside, i can accept, but if you sell phones with dead pixels, dust under screen, faulty and crappy vibrator motors, faulty screens, faulty buttons with rattle, here is a question of QUALITY and PLEASE don't say me that the phone is low cost. I PAID 410 EUROS, not 100 and if go to a market and i buy a cheap phone (100euro) i don't have rattle or something like this. We can say that they don't do quality control process properly and that a BIG company like google MUST check this and the data that confirm my ideas is the form that users here have compiled: only 38% of phones are resulted with NO DEFECTS, all others with SAME PROBLEMS, so it's not just a feeling. It's a Real problem...

my suggestion is : DO RMA until it's possible, my MONEY wasn't with dust, or it wasn't rattling...

hope to have done a useful thing

[Nexus 5 General] iNaruX:
Lol...I´d suggest waiting for the 2nd or 3rd charge or just replace the motor yourself (it is glued to the BACKPLATE, so it´s VERY easy :) ) - at the moment with my personal experience, there are more faulty motors than correct ones..it might just be something like the Power Button rattle, easy to fix. I have had hands on 5 devices (including mine) - ALL of them did that Chirping sound when typing on the keyboard ( all of them were black, if it matters ). So RMA´ing now will most likely not result in a perfect device. You just might get a worse one..

So again: Wait a few months and then RMA -> until then JUST DEACTIVATE the vibration on keypress - this is an easy fix as the chirping noise only occurs on very short vibrations rhythms (e.g typing on the keyboard)

Here a sound example what everybody is talking about:

[Nexus 5 General] Tony_YYZ:

The vibration is fine..... you feel subtle vibration while typing and the "noise".... i only heard when i had the phone's back against my ear....plus it's the same sound i've heard come out of all phones that use a linear oscillator vibration motor.

Put the back of phone to your ear and then type...you'll hear it. and it's fine if you do cuz it's freaking normal!

My phone has quite the opposite, very soft vibration. I can definitely feel it in SwiftKey but it's way less intense than on Galaxy Nexus. In fact I tried putting it on vibrate mode and getting a phone call, and the sensation was very subtle. It might be too weak in fact. However I'm probably going to RMA anyway due to dead pixels or gunk trapped under the screen, so I'll see what the next one is like.

Some people have real issues with the phone I don't think that would be hard to understand. This board makes Google enough money I'm sure also.
