I have this to say. I really like my nexus 5. I came from the HTC one. I had no issues with my one. If Google gives the nexus line to Motorola in which they own I will not purchase another nexus phone or whatever they change the name to if that's the case. I do not like Motorola anything. And if I'm not mistaken a lot of folks didn't like Motorola. Hence, why they were bought by Google. But it's personal with myself and Motorola. So I'll just keep my nexus 5 until it runs out of updates and then see what else is out there. I really like the nexus line and really hope Google keeps it. I have the n7, N10, and of course the n5.

Techno buffalo says it may be true...the name nexus 6 is trademark by someone else
[Nexus 5 General] -A-P-M-:
When I read that rumour, I didnt care a lot because Moto would be alternative. But now Google sold Motorola to Lenovo. So if rumour about end of Nexus phones is true, I dont know what phone to buy.:mad:
[Nexus 5 General] mrjeff2:
I really love the design language of the Nexus. I love the back and would hate to see that go too.

After reading this http://bgr.com/2014/01/27/google-nexus-discontinued-rumor/ , it seems like discontinuing the Nexus may be part of a concession by Google to push Samsung/OEMs to s/lowly abandon TouchWiz for a more AOSP feel. The source article is in Russian so the translation is not perfect but it seems Google may also be adding some of Samsung's added features directly into AOSP, maybe like multi-window, eye scanning, what-have you.

No way to know if this is a good or bad thing until it takes place and we see what kind of devices the OEMs are pushing out around 2015.
[Nexus 5 General] big_b0sss:
read somewhere, one part of the Google and Samsung 10 years cross licence agreement was Samsung will be focusing more on the os means they will be more stockish then i laughed my a$$ off. but if this happens i will be so happy i really do love sammy the only thing puts me off is the touchwiz. i would be surprised if they really use stockish ui like Motorola
[Nexus 5 General] Fatelord:
Lol and now after they sold Motorola off to a Chinese company ?

You'll put your hat back :P ..
[Nexus 5 General] RhapsodyK:
I really hope Google will keep producing Nexus series
[Nexus 5 General] fix-this!:
As long as we still get play edition phones im.fine with this. Just lower the prices a bit. The problem with the nexus line is they dont have a high resale value at all.
[Nexus 5 General] CDKJudoka:
Based on the licensing deal between Samsung and Google, I see Samsung going back to making the Nexus/GPDE devices. And since Skynet, er Google, is still going to own all of the patents from Motorola, as well as their advanced R&D division, they may have their own hardware division in the works to be a true Apple/Microshaft competitor.

I am looking forward to serving our new electronic overlords.
[Nexus 5 General] kailashnj:
Hahaha This was really a shocker.... So now Nexus series to continue.

[Nexus 5 General] freshlysqueezed:
I think we can thank Samsung for killing the nexus line. Its all part of the agreement between Google and Samsung. Samsung agreed to curb software development with touchwiz and fragmenting the android os and google agreed to curb inexpensive mobile hardware development in the nexus line.

My 2cents.

Source? I hope this is not the case.
[Nexus 5 General] SupaDupaFly24:
I don't think Google will stop selling Nexus like devices...But will they rebrand the Nexus name maybe!

I think the Nexus line is too important just to let Samsung or anybody else come in and tell Google they should stop making them..
[Nexus 5 General] Kobayashi_SRK:
This is really troubling.

What other line of phones allows you to (easily) unlock the bootloader, is compatible with pure AOSP, and thereby supported by truckloads of talented developers such as the hard-working ones here at XDA? What other line of phones are completely unlocked, work on GSM and CDMA, and basically embody all of the freedom the Nexus phones afford?

Are we forever doomed now to the will of OEM's? I've never owned a GPe device. Are GPe devices typically as well-supported by custom ROM's, kernels, etc. as the Nexus phones are? I love my Nexus 5. Not because of its price. I'd gladly pay full flagship price for it. Partially because of its cutting edge hardware and software. But mostly because of the freedom it affords. Do GPe devices have that same freedom?
[Nexus 5 General] dk206:
There is no benefit in google keeping nexus project alive. Softwarr implementation is much more important to them. It makes sense - this is from a guy who works at the big S.
[Nexus 5 General] bozzykid:
Apparently Google is going to be beefing up their GPE line and with or without the Nexus devices, developers will have the tools they need. At this point, there is no need for a single device for developers when Google is providing plenty of them from their Play Store.
[Nexus 5 General] mistahseller:
but will they be supported like the dev community supports the nexus line? There's a lot of neat stuff for the Nexus
[Nexus 5 General] Cirkustanz:
Uhm....you might be surprised to know that Google recently sold Motorola to Lenova very recently. The Motorola/Google thing is no longer an assumption that one can make.
[Nexus 5 General] LeoRex:
Well, the nexus line never involved Motorola, so that might not be an issue... LG's best phone is the nexus 5, Asus's best tablet is the 7... so there might be no reason to stop the program.
[Nexus 5 General] AndrasLOHF:
I think I'm done with Android if Nexus is killed. I'm not paying full flagship price as opposed to a contract price for a phone just to get timely updates. After my last 2 HTC phones I'm not going through anymore locked down OEM Knox/S-off crap either.
[Nexus 5 General] bozzykid:
I posted that before the announcement. At the end of the day, it will not matter to the average consumer. Google will still offer at least one affordable phone on the Play Store with a pure Google experience. Whether or not they call it a Nexus phone will not matter to most people.
[Nexus 5 General] jdk2:
Traitor :D

I agree. Software is where it's at for Google. If they can manipulate it's implementation, they've won the game. It looks like Samsung and Google are starting to reach an agreement that let's them both come out ahead.
[Nexus 5 General] sabre31:
I am all for nexus as well but the GPE devices are fully unlockable and ready for roms same as a nexus line. The hardware is also better in some cases because of flagship phones being used. I would love to see GPE for all flagship devices like note 3, etc. Only downside is price. Where can you buy a great phone at this price. I pretty much owned every nexus phone except nexus s and I paid 650 for them until N4 came out and I am afraid we are going back to those prices if nexus goes away.
[Nexus 5 General] ilostmypistons:
During Google earnings report this afternoon they made point to mention how happy they are with the Nexus 5 and how well its doing... so I highly doubt they will discontinue a segment of the company that is exceeding expectations
[Nexus 5 General] Dani897:
well i've heard they have had legal issues with calling the "android" phones "nexus"... philip k. **** wrote "do androids dream of electric sheep" and the "androids" also called replicants were called "nexus 6" models and the book was the basis for "blade runner." so they may be rebranding the product line. they may also be replacing the nexus with motorola play edition phones. i mean motorola has been making the moto g at an affordable price and they are part of google. so who knows.

i'm sure they only meant to pay homage to Philip K. **** but he is dead and his family or who ever is in charge of his estate probably sees an opportunity to make money.
[Nexus 5 General] caspboy:
they sold motorola to lenovo yesterday for 2.5 billion. It was on xda news. This nexus story is just a stunt for more views. Unless he works for google he wouldn't know...

Nexus is the best Android phone, why kill it?

It's better to kill Samsung's Galaxy lineup together with its Touchwiz because its ruining Android's reputation as the best mobile OS.

Weird...
[Nexus 5 General] sabre31:
Now take this all with a grain of salt but a lot of articles on this out there on the net. Many so-called experts are saying this has to do with Samsung and the deal Google made with them. If you read into all the stories out there it makes perfect sense. Samsung has been going away from Google more and more with their highly skinned look, their new Magazine UX they are proposing for S5 and slowly moving millions of their users to Samsung services. Heck Samsung has a clone for every Google App including their play store. Sure you and I know what are the google services but 90% of the average users do not and will simply use the Samsung Services.

Google is very afraid of this because it is a potential very large loss for them as far as revenue stream and their business. Not only do they make money from the Play Store but they are an advertising company at heart that is how they make a lot of their money. If all of a sudden 60 or 70% of users no longer use their services or search engines, email then they lost that target audience because they can't see what you are doing and sell you ads. Not to mention the loss of revenue from the Play Store as well because users will not be buying apps from there but from the Samsung app store.

Do you think that a normal user would care or know the difference whether they are on a Samsung Tizen phone using Samsung services or Google's? Most wont know or care as long as they get the apps and can still get their emails and browsing. This is what Google fears the most. Samsung became a common name like iPhone is. Samsung is iPhone for the Android world and Google cannot simply ignore this. Most likely they are scared sh*tless of Samsung and the damage it can to do them.

So they sell of Motorola which was losing money for them, they kill of Nexus and let's be real Nexus never made Google lots of money at all. Yeah maybe the N5 sold more then previous models but still not a cash cow for them. They will continue to sell GPE devices to please developers who want stock and unlocked bootloaders the very reason the Nexus program was born for so that concept and idea does not go away and this is the first year they started selling GPE to test the waters I am sure.

So they make Samsung happy and Samsung agrees not to change Android or move users to their services. Google realizes they need Samsung to keep Android alive and making money for them. Remember these are corporations they don't give a crap about anything except the bottom dollar.

They were probably negotiating with Samsung behind the scenes for quite some time and then once agreed on the terms they quickly announce a 10 year deal and Motorola goes Poof and Nexus goes bye-bye to keep Samsung happy and Samsung agrees to abide by Google's terms and not screw them over by moving users away from their services and OS.

Google plans to have the Nest team head up hardware designs. So, Google may still have some control over the hardware in upcoming phones. We shall see.
[Nexus 5 General] simms22:
http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/536732/20140131/google-nexus-5-red.htm

"Reports about Google planning to remove its Nexus line started circulating recently. However, Google took the liberty to address the situation stating otherwise. If people will look at the company's comments, they would be a good indication that the program will continue for the years to come. In a conference call regarding the fourth quarter earnings report of the company, Google CFO Patrick Pichette called the Nexus 5 as a winner. According to the CFO, the device has performed strongly for the company.

Pichette remained tight lipped how many units of Nexus 5 it was able to sell. According to reports, Chromecast and Google Nexus 5 were the two best selling products all quarter. The CFO noted that the company is very pleased about its sales. According to him: "We had great momentum on the Nexus 5 and Chromecast."

also have to keep in mind that if the two products are using the same name, but involve vastly different ideologies (and functions), then they may not overlap in a copywrite, patent, or trademark case... not saying this is the case or not, but it's something to think about...

this... the creator of Nest came from Apple's original iPhone team and changed the world with a cutting edge design. i can't wait to see what the Nest team comes up with hardware wise.
[Nexus 5 General] wicked1683:
Sorry mate, but I dont think Google is afraid of losing Samsung... There are lots of better hardware company out there than can make Android more popular.

Samsung is just ruining the real experience Android could give the users. With their laggy, buggy and bloated touchwiz, Samsung smartphone users think that's the Android everyone is talking about. Samsung is just good at false advertising. So many 1st time android users are choosing Samsung then will realize that IOS is better because of Samsung's touchwiz.

And "no" again mate, I dont think there are many Samsung app users than Google play users. Check the numbers mate.

It's better if Samsung depart itself from Android, go ahead use only Tizen, lets see who will buy Samsung Phones if that happens.

I'm saying all of this base in my own experience with Galaxy S3. It cant even handle a good multitasking. I even have a Samsung smart Tv with dual processor , and yeah it's slow as a Snail and yeah it has bug on it's important feature like connecting to a multiple wifi, etc.

But in fairness with Samsung, it's a good hardware company, but in software, they suck bigtime. Peace :p
[Nexus 5 General] markdapimp:
The main reason why people buy samsung phones is because of its features that are gimmicky but useful Such as Smart pause,Smart Stay etc. the second reason why people buy it is due to the apps because it has a large selection of apps

if Samsung were to sell a windows phone put a LOAD of feature on it some may buy but the majority wont as its lacking apps

Tizen would most likely lack that also

Has anyone see the Tizen OS being showed off at CNET

http://reviews.cnet.com/operating-systems/tizen-os/4505-3671_7-35624749.html

The reference software on the reference device was also terrible looks like Android 1.5, just does less and has lesser apps
[Nexus 5 General] nike0518:
based off this, it looks like the nexus line will be here for a while..

Google has just agreed to sell Motorola to Lenovo, thus I personally think the rumors of ending nexus line to replace it with motorola are now proven false. Just thought Id share this with Nexus owners.

Hello,

I was on onmiron 1/25/14 nightly when my SGH-i777 restarted on its own and was trying to upgrade android but could not continue. The message I keep seeing is that the NFC service was not responding and it kept force closing. I did not run any updates last night.

I had to revert to 011414 nightly and a factory reset to get it up and running again. I did turn off NFC in the settings after reverting.

Anyone else had this issue?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gatoray:
Hello,

What started out as a spontaneous root adventure turned into a nightmare after I messed with one too many options in Titanium Backup. Fortunately I have a full app backup, so if I can get my phone back to working condition it will be good as new.

Phone stats: Droid Razr M (XT907) running 4.1.2 at time of initial crash

MY PROBLEM:

After restoring and wiping (several times) I am stuck with this scenario. I can boot the phone just fine, and I can get through the new phone setup app, but the moment I attempt to exit the setup app I get this message "Sorry: Setup has stopped working". Setup closes and I am left with a blank desktop, only outlying system UI visible and responsive. I am able to get to settings though a conveniently placed notification, but that's the only way. I am able to access all settings and developer options, which is good, but when I go to look at the apps I notice a lot of apps (not all) are coming up as 0.00B of space. When I reboot the phone I get stuck in a "System Update: Loading Apps" cycle that never ends until I hard restart my phone.

WHAT I HAVE TRIED:

* Using RSD Lite to flash the factory default kernel or whatever: FAILED, can't get past the first out of 19 steps

* Using adb and mfastboot to flash the system image manually: FAILED, doesn't seem to want to install the boot or system images

* Using Droid RAZR M Utility v1.20: FAILED, same failure as adb.

* Downloaded many different drivers, programs, roms, zips, whatever. If you want me to try something again, I probably have the files for it.

I have basically given up trying to figure it out myself at this point, stayed up all last night searching for solutions (I'm a computer science student, who can blame me?) to no avail. It's up to you guys to help me save my phone!

There's something interesting going on in your phone. You have factory mode enabled, how you did it or what you did to turn it on? This is really interesting.

[Galaxy Note II General] m.4_ts@yahoo.com:
i think i made a mistake

as far as i can remember, its running 4.1.2 MC3 custom rom.

then i flashed > Stock_Deodex_Rooted_N7100XXDME6_N7100DBTDME2_N7100XXDME4_DBT

then i flashed > BL_N7100XXUEMJ5_1903221_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5 < so that i can install 4.3 custom rom.

flashed > philz_touch_5.15.0-n7100.tar.md5 < to root

after all those, even if i factory reset the phone, it never came to the usual setting of accounts where we set the language, connect to wifi, samsung accounts, etc.. it just boots up directly to the home screen with a foreign language.. and those pop ups (screen shots) keeps on popping out..

i flashed an official MJ5 rom through ODIN, factory resetted, but still booting it up goes directly to the home screen.

again, flashed official MK9 rom with BL, and still booting it up goes directly to the home screen..

i've messed up the phone..
