[Nexus 5 Accessories] FahadHassan:
I live in Dubai too

For which phone did you order your Nillkin Glass ? I also am looking into getting the Nillkin glass screen protector for my Note 3 from a seller in China on ebay.

I am not sure if I should order it as the waiting time is way too long. I heard it takes almost 25-30 days to get the package delivered to Dubai via China Post mail service. I'm worried about damage to the items as well. Do let me know when you get it and how's the condition especially of the glass :P. By that time, I'll stick with the UAG screen protector :P

Cheers. :laugh:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] redjersey:
Do they accept paypal?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dehsA:
Nope.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] FahadHassan:
On ebay they do. And I have found on ebay whatever there is on sites like Aliexpress & Souq.com.

Infact, you can get it on ebay on a pretty lower price like Ali-express but just research a bit and get in contact with the seller before making any purchase.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] kpjimmy:
I have bought the aluminum bumper on aliexpress. Paid for expedited shipping, which meant the shiptimes were cut from about 1month to 1 week, which was awesome for 5 bux IMO. Similar to ebay. Tracks your purchases and asks for feedback on the seller. I'd buy again from Ali depending on what it is.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
I've had no problems with Aliexpress. If I can find the same thing on ebay, I'll get it from there instead as it tends to be cheaper. Shipping times are pretty much the same to Canada, so if it's not on ebay and Aliexpress carries it, I'll order from there.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dunjamon:
It seems like an eBay-esque site. I ordered a replica Nexus 5 Bumper case, just waiting for it to arrive now. The China Post tracking isn't the best.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bushako:
Oh the Nillkin is for my beloved and pristine Nexus 5? although its true the waiting period is pretty long. I've never ordered from Ali express before but I have made orders directly from other merchants in China. It usually takes an average of 3weeks to get the item here in Dubai. Will update once I've received the items.

I usually sell stuff on Souq.com but only because I can get more value for my item. I actually sold a Nexus 5 32gb d820 for 626$ twice! But yea you don't always find what you're looking for and when you do its pretty expensive. I found a Diztronic case on souq, the only one, for around 30$ where as on Amazon its sold for like 10$. Only problem I have with eBay is Paypal. So it sucks.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bushako:
Ever used Dhgate? Their services seem to be identical to Aliexpress.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] FahadHassan:
True that. Dude I went to souq.com to find a case as well. They sell like almost 1.5 - 2 ice of the price. The UAG cover I ordered online cost me 35 bucks with intl. shipping and these guys sell the same cover here for AED 220 i.e almost like $60. :D

If I would have been living in the US, I would have got the same thing for about $27 ... This is brutal man. Somebody should keep a check :p
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Nope, don't have any experience with dhgate.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bushako:
Nah I'm glad its the way it is, especially if you're a seller there?

I came across the UAG but thought it was a bit too bulky and yes expensive! So I got the Spigen Slim Armor, it turned out to be bulky as well but has a more stealthy look to it.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rotaryheadrx7:
I've bought many things from Ali-Express. Depending on the shipping method delivery to USA has been 2-3 weeks. I've had things come broken and sellers have made right with me each time. Pleased so far.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bushako:
Just got all the items today. I think its been about 3 weeks for it to arrive here in Dubai. They came in padded envelopes and everything seemed intact. Applied the Nillkin Protector and I love it. I think after this I'll never go back to a plastic screen protector. Also received my quicksand case and have it on, not so sure about it but I'm willing yo give it a shot. Overall, I'm quite happy with their service, no problems at all.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] FahadHassan:
:good:

I have also ordered the Nillkin glass and it was shipped on 24th March. By your estimate, I shall get it by 15th April.

Can't wait.

BTW can you share your seller's info. Now that we know he can be trusted. Perhaps would order something some other time from him.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bushako:
Just make sure you use the blue static film they include in the package, It really helps in repelling dust. It took me in total 5 minutes to apply it perfectly with not a single spec under the glass. In comparison it takes me nearly 30minutes to apply a regular plastic SP from all the times I had to keep lifting them up to clear dust.

Here's some info about my order and the sellers info View attachment 2663351
[Nexus 5 Accessories] FahadHassan:
Awesome..... Same seller... :)

Now I can rest assured my item is genuine and brand new.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] FahadHassan:
Hey bro. sup?

How's your screen protector??? any scratches yet???

I got mine today :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bushako:
Nope but it's got a Crack at the very edge of the screen and chippings. I placed in a carry bag in rush with some sharp metal inside by accident and I realized it was sharp enough to poke the screen and cause a small Crack. Luckily the actual screen is safe. I don't know whether to be disappointed that it cracked easily or happy that it protected the actual screen. But either way I made another order for Nillkin glass along with a fake Nexus 5 official bumper case and one of those 0.3mm slim cases.

Did you apply yours yet? And how did you find it?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] FahadHassan:
yea I did right away.

Sad to hear that... :(

Is it that fragile?? Btw so far I feel it's not that smooth, I loved the buttery feel of the original screen. I use a UAG cover which has all the sides covered with a raised lip on the screen, this glass is just for some added protection. You did the right thing ordering a case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] muyoso:
Aliexpress is the best. Ordered about 30 things on the site in the last month. Got a beautiful Nillkin hard case in white and a Spigen Neo Hybrid for $4. Also got a leather beautiful Nexus 7 case which I love.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slimrider94:
I bought my case from there. Shipping took a while (it was coming from China). They waited a long time to ship the case and the tracking was pretty bad, I didn't know where my order was the whole time. Obviously experiences differ based on the seller.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] FahadHassan:
Did you use track17.net ?

It is awesome, right from the shipping till it gets delivered, you shall know everything. China Mail to Empost.

In my case, I had to pick it up, but it still stated that message in the status.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] xkravenx:
I started using AliExpress about 1 month ago. So far, I am pretty satisfied with my purchases. However I would set your expectations before buying anything from those stores.

1st Order: 2 x Qi Chargers for $20 . It took about 2-3 weeks for them to arrive. They get very hot when charging.

2nd Order: Nillkin White Case ($6) Not sure if real or fake. Looks very real, but white color is fading away.

3rd Order: Fake Spigen Slim Armor ($4). Received in less than 2 weeks. Fake, bad quality. Sharp edges and corners. (Huge case)

4th Order: Fake Spigen Neo Hybris ($3). Have not received this yet. It should arrive in another week.

The reason why I bought the cases, is to have a feel for how I would like them. In the past I have bought the expensive cases and never liked them. Too thick, big, glossy, etc. So this is my way of "TESTING" the cases before I buy the real ones.

So far my favorite case for the Nexus 5 has been the cheap $2 sand case from ebay.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] FahadHassan:
I personally like the neo hybrid, but bro the fake ones are not even close to the real ones in terms of quality and shock absorption. But again for $4 a case, who wouldn't want one. But I went with original UAG case + glass screen protector to have my phone completely covered in case of an accident
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bushako:
I'm liking the Official Nexus 5 bumper case. Its simple and has modest protection and not to mention the nexus logo in the back. I didn't wanna pay a hefty 30buks for the original one so I ordered a fake one for about 10buks. From the rating section a lot of people reported that there's barely any difference in quality between the genuine and fake, same feel, material and cutouts. Let's see.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] granduke:
Have you received this yet?

How is the quality?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] xkravenx:
Received it on Monday. Impressed by how fast they can ship this. Other places takes 3-4 weeks.

Anyhow for $3.99 the quality is better than I expected. You can tell it's not perfect if you really look for defects. So for the money it's great!!. Let's see how long this last.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] EPayne123:
Bpught one of the $12.50 Wireless Chargers from AliExpress on April 10th via Chinese Postal. Received it April 21st. A LOT faster than what I expected. Their website told me 5-10 days shipping and I think another 5-10 shipping and it was finished in 10.5D. . . bought it at like 6P on the 10th. Came US Postal in a Styrofoam box taped ALL sorts of up LoL but was secure inside and bubble wrapped. Works well, just ensure if you purchase one to read the specs and look at what kind of and how powerful your power brick can be to ensure maximum performance as mine didn't come with a brick.

Edit: By the way, cane from Shenzen to Fort Myers, Fl.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] wolfen69:
Yeah, I ordered a couple "Official" bumper cases from ebay for about $9 each. I saw a video on youtube about the replica cases from china, and they said quality was very good. Plus, you can get colors that aren't available through google.

As far as aliexpress, they seem to have good prices for most things. But it's probably a good idea to check a couple different sites to find the cheapest.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] granduke:
How is this fake Spigen Neo Hybrid holding out after a week? You still like it and would recommend?

I suppose you like it prefer it over the Slim Armor?

thanks

Aliexpress

In my opinion aliexpress is one of the best place to do shopping. I've ordered all kind of stuff; boxers, wallets, headphones, mouses, memory cards etc... They have very good customer service. Only shipping time is long, 3-4 weeks to Finland.

However, i ordered this:Wallet Case For LG Google Nexus 5 E980 D820 D821 Case Flip Leather Cover YXF03731 _ 15% OFF for 2PCS! to my nexus 5, and it's excellent! I have to admit, one of the best wallet cases what i've ever used. Cheap, good condition, good-looking, handy... I just love it. :victory:

Anyone have ordered this: NILLKIN screen protector Lot! Matte OR Super clear HD anti-fingerprint protective film for LG Nexus 5 ? I think this will be my next order, so if there's someone who's using this, i would like to know what you're thinking about it. :confused: .

ps. Sorry for not using links, i just have too few messages.. :cyclops:

Kitkattii
[Nexus 5 Accessories] :
I ordered the Nillkin tempered glass panel for N5 but it will be a few more weeks till it arrives. And I'm in Finland too :) I'll post some comments here when it arrives from Aliexpress
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Kenneth196:
What happens if you miss the delivery? I checked my tracking number and it states that the lastest update from 2 days ago is "attempted delivery".

It was sent to my work place, but its closed on Saturday, so I'm not sure who grabbed the piece of paper that was left on the front door. Kind of at a loss right now.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Kitkattii:
I'm not 100% sure, but all what i've ordered came to closest post-office. So, if you know which post-office holds your packet, i think you should go there and ask if it's possible to get the package. Show your ID and i think you're able to get the package. ;)

Kitkattii
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Kenneth196:
Great idea!

Edit: Just received the package! The receptionist at my job just handed it to me. So coincidental.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Techimplant:
Recieved my Nillkin glass today from Aliexpress.. Great service and a perfect product.. I have already placed an order for official bumper too ..

From now on I will be sticking with Aliexpress only for all of my phone accessories..

[Nexus 5 Accessories] xkravenx:
So far it's been good. As I said for the price it's great. I just noticed today that the buttons are white plastic. The original Spigen case I think are made of metal. Had no idea until I checked the pictures. :laugh: The buttons still feel OK though.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bushako:
Yes they're amazing, especially with the Aliexpress app, makes things so much easier. I mean there are plenty of other stores but this one to me seems the most convenient and closest to eBay and Amazon.

I'm still waiting on my official bumper case and Nillkin glass, the waiting is the only downside but it's free so no complain.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] slimrider94:
I think you mean 17track.net:p . Thanks for the recommendation, I haven't used it before but I will now.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] muyoso:
I've ordered quite a few things from aliexpress. Ordered a wireless charger that I tore apart and attached to a car dock to create a nice wireless charger. Bought a Nillkin hard case which I absolutely love. Bought a Spigen Neo Hybrid which ended up being a knockoff I guess and which I do not like for the mushy plastic buttons. Would absolutely still use that case though if o didn't have the Nillkin that I love. Also ordered a leather flip case for my Nexus 7 that I love. Then also ordered a ton of other things which have nothing to do with android. Overall a very very good experience with aliexpress. Absolutely love the communication the from the site and the entire payment system they have set up. There has been reason for me to open a dispute on a couple of items and all of the disputes have been resolved quickly and fairly. Love the site overall.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] goofball2k:
Have only ordered 3 items but have been very happy with aliexpress. Very addictive site as well. So far, great experience.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] thephantom:
I've gotten a couple items from that site. Some cases, screen protectors, etc for different phone brands. Longest wait was about a month but they arrive good without issues

Ah this sucks. My Nilkin got to me in about 2 weeks where as one of the two case is going through Ukraine then to Dubai, meaning another week of waiting. Why do they do that when they're all being shipped from China Mail? Shouldn't they all be shipped the same way?

So I am reviving a long-dead thread to ask about this site, AliExpress.

Everything looks legit, but as I have never purchased from there before, I wanted to get some opinions from you all before I buy.

Here is the link for the phone in question: LG Nexus 5 32GB

Hi,

I hope you can help as i am close to throwing this out the window.

I have a chinese market p6, i believe the build is 118, and i have rooted using SRS 1 click. I am trying to install TWRP so that i can install the KK4.4 custom ROM.

The phone is in chinese and i have managed to navigate to turn on developer options and USB debugging

So, in ADB services my device is recognised, when i type 'fastboot reboot-bootloader' it says 'waiting for device' and nothing happens.

incidently, SRS 1 does allow me to boot into recovery mode, but when i navigate to upload from sd card, it tells me the sd card isn't recognised.

The other thing i dont get, is when i get the device into fastboot/bootloader mode, how do i then install TWRP?

Its starting to frustrate the life out of me, any help is greatly appreciated.
