Any update?

My battery is ****e now, lasts 3-4 hours and I need to turn off the phone and charge. It takes 4+ hours to charge when switched on. Charging via the PC you can forget it, it drains the battery if anything!

I'm thinking of buying the battery on eBay and doing my research on how to fix myself.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zanyguy:
Phone not switching on and Battery issues

Hi,

I have been facing quick drainage of my Nexus 4 battery since past few months. Recently I had been keeping it on charge almost the whole day, and a full charge would last only 2-3 hours! Further, the charging was taking a lot of time too.

Today, my phone had already switched off due to low battery when I put it on charger. After the white charging icon appeared for a few seconds, the phone wasn't charging at all. I have tried 4 different chargers, but to no avail.

Can someone help me? Is there a guide on how to change the battery?

Any help and urgent help appreciated!

Zany!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
It's possible some hardware was damaged when you took apart and put back together your phone. The USB board is a possibility, as is the back cover itself. These parts are pretty inexpensive, if you want to try buying a replacement, but that's just a shot in the dark.

Buy a new battery. Li-ion batteries are only good for a few hundred cycles or so (~500 cycles is the expected lifetime), and the N4 isn't exactly the best in battery life, so you can reach the point where your battery turns to crap within a year or so (or less).

Go to ifixit.com and look at the teardown. All you need to replace the battery is a T5 TORX driver (for the screws at the bottom), something thin and plastic (like a guitar pick or a plastic knife - they do make professional tools for this) to pry the back cover off, a tiny phillips screwdriver (like for eyeglasses) for the battery screws, and something to pry the old battery off of the adhesive holding it in. Double sided cellophane tape works fine for keeping the new battery in. When prying the cover off, go slowly. A little at a time, don't rush or force things. Or you might flex too much and crack the back glass. Don't forget to take out the SIM tray first.

Time for a new battery. See above.

My battery have started to swollen up a bit but not alot (around 1mm or less, but it is noticeable when not in a case, it can wiggle a bit from side to side but not alot at all).

I have already ordered a new battery if it is expanding more, but yet battery life is pretty good in standby but not getting more then 3hours of SOT. but since im mostly using the N4 for email's and texting its not a problem for me to get through a full day.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] apocolypsecow:
I'm having the exact same issue but I've never taken the phone apart. In the 20 minutes its been off charger it's dropped 11% screen off in my pocket. It also gets hot and shuts off.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
That could be software/ROM related. It sounds like somethings keeping your phone going full blast instead of letting it idle.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CalculatedRisk:
Yup, trying going back to full stock (should always be first step if possible), and then you can go from there. If it doesn't happen, than it was a software issue, and if it still does than it is definitely a hardware issue. Best of luck.

With a swollen battery I strongly recommend you stop actively using the device. Swollen batteries can explode and that would not be good at all. I advise you to please not use the device anymore.

Can anyone tell me how I would go about modifying the .apk or .smali code to stop launcher rotation?

What I'd like is the S5 Launcher in 5X5 orientation, but without screen rotation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] MattSid:
Hallo everyone,

I just bought a Nexus 5 and I'm looking for a specific Qi Charger for my Automobile. I'm looking ONLY for a model that could be connected at the cigarette lighter receptacle, something like this one but with the Qi funktion. It would be perfect for me, someone knows where I could buy it?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MattSid:
I just made a Fotomontage und this is how it could be the look of the Qi charger that I got in my mind (of course with a Nexus 5 instead of the iPhone).

It's possible that it doens't exist a product like this?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dunjamon:
There doesn't seem to be any kind of back to the cradle so can't even see if it's possible to make something for the coil. Would be brilliant if you could...similar to what I've been looking for.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MattSid:
Sadly I'm not an electro freak and I can't build it :)

I'm wondering how It could be possible that this product doens't exist in the whole planet...maybe are we wrong and someone knows one? ;)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jsgraphicart:
Maybe get an official Nexus 5 charger and a lighter outlet plug and fix something up with that. Since it has magnets in it, it should hold the phone in place pretty well.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] bsg411:
I would suggest the official nexus Qi charger since it has adhesive capabilities so the phone does not slide off while driving....then find a usb cigarette lighter adapter to connect the charger to and you should be set. The nexus 4 charger has an adhesive surface and the nexus 5 charger has a magnetic surface to keep the phone secured to the phone.

I have not tried this...so use at your own risk but should work.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jsgraphicart:
Something like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7iIf6VkFXM
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dunjamon:
The nexus charger magnets don't seem to work with cases from what I've seen. I'm considering getting this dock and then attached the AirDock to the end. Bit pricey but should work well.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] KwaZyLiLoBoY:
The solution i have came up with may or may not work for you since cars all have different interior setups.

So my set up consists of

-Nexus Wireless Charger

-Kenu Airframe Vent Mount

-Cigarette charger / micro usb cable

This works perfectly and not permanent in case you don't want adhesive disk on your dash or a suction cup on your windshield and have to reach for it.

Mount the well.. mount on your AC vent and then use that to hold the charger and run the cable from it to the cigarette lighter port and viola.

So far I've been driving with this for two days, using it as a GPS via Google Maps. Driving thru bad highways and still holding on strong.. Phone needs to be naked though.

Sorry.. I don't know how to post pics.. first time posting..
[Nexus 5 Accessories] haturaya:
How about this? http://www.ebay.com.my/itm/LG-Car-M...LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1e8d32a5ea&_uhb=1

I've been using the Qi unit WCP-300 for quite some time (since Nexus 4). Stable and solidly built.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MattSid:
Haturaya, those products got always a usb cabel, i don't wont a cable all over my cockpit, that's why a solution like this one would be perfect, with a Qi charger instead of a USB connector.

I was interested in this model, but isn't compatible with the Nexus 5 'cause this one got the USB Connector inverted...

F**k! :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MattSid:
At the end I just gave up the reserch of this perfect Qi charger and I bought this one (modified in the order to fit the big dimension of the Nexus 5)

I hope to see in the future this same model but with Qi charger, I would buy it immediatly.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rancur3p1c:
shouldn't need the clamps its got magnetic mounts on the back. I want one of those
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dunjamon:
How sturdy is the cable? Does it wobble around when the phones in there?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] MattSid:
The clamp is there 'cause I broke the support in order to fit the Nexus 5 dimension.

It woobles a little bit, but I could say that it's enought stable to use the phone without problems.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] rancur3p1c:
I want a magnetically held up one.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] n2rjt:
Airdock for the win
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dunjamon:
Do you have one? I'm tempted to get one with this mount, but I've heard mixed reviews about how it holds phones in cases.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] n2rjt:
I have one. It works great, without a case. Can't say how it works with a case but it is sticky and they include magnetic stickers that you can use to make anything stick to the mount. I use one of those with my wife's Galaxy Nexus (only as a mount, not a charger in that case.)

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bflobills:
I just wanted to get people's opinion on whether backing up with Titanium for apps could be redundant if you already backup to your Google account?

The last time I updated my ROM with a full system wipe and re-booted, all the previously installed apps came right back as soon as I connected to wifi and logged into Google. The Titanium backup file is very large on my KF and I would rather use the space for other things..

I realize that TB is necessary for system data, but do you think I need to continuously back up my apps in both places?

Thanks for your input..
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ixthusdan:
I think that if you want an identical restore, then TB is the route. With Google, I still must setup my screens.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] the.emilio:
Guessing TWRP and you had wiped the system partition. If you wipe system it mounts that partition. Restart back in to recovery and flash again or go back to the main recovery screen, select mounts and unmount system then flash again :good: I will put in a command to unmount system before flashing in the script so this error can be avoided.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Kaemo:
I also noticed that it doesn't sync your apps. I have to download them all over again.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] the.emilio:
To confirm, unmounting system fixed it? Or did you reboot back to recovery and flashed again?

In regards to the app, yeah I noticed that too. Typically, it auto downloads everything when you run the same ROM. Any future updates to the same ROM will still save the info, so when you wipe and flash to the same ROM but an updated version, it will automatically restore. In this case, it is a brand new ROM and a start over is basically all that can be done. Once you've set everything up it should automatically restore on any subsequent build I put out. Best thing I can suggest in the future is titanium backup so you can restore app and app data. :good:

It is also one way to tell who is using the same base.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Kaemo:
Yep, unmounting system fixed it. :) Everything's good!

[MENTION=5334172]Gnome[/MENTION] Hey I see you have a new kernel link? Just sneaking it in there LOL! Which do you think is best for this ROM?

Edit: I saw AOSP/Linaro. That's not a kernel though (181 mb)!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] the.emilio:
Negative. viper4android would be a good fit tho
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Gnome:
Thats one built straight from linaro source code, so its AOSP linaro optimized, got the manifest from here: LINK

If you want to try it, use Banks Minimal GApps, there are issues with other GApps with it, system UI FC's if you use the others, only minimal works. Loading circle animation is bugged(known linaro bug) but its just cosmetics so it wont affect performance, boot animation not working so you'll just see Google splash screen but dont worry it'll boot. The one sitting on the server right now is deodexed fyi.

Edit: I fixed the bootanimation by replacing another one, building it again, but now odexed.

Anyways here's a screenshot:
