[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomancoolboy:
Well , the galaxy s3 can still record slo-mo videos .. (SoC and camera both are outdated)

It's upto the OEMS to provide the feature
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Yeah, at a lowered resolution. The Nexus 5 is a 350USD phone, they've obviously cut corners to drop the price while still making any profit.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomancoolboy:
None of the phones can record slo-mo in HD .. (Afaik)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Yeah, but it still doesn't mean the sensor in the Nexus 5 is fast enough for 120fps. Again, corners were cut.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomancoolboy:
You are missing my point ..

It's upto the software not the sensor itself ..

Nexus 5 can even record 4k videos if they wanted it to . .. But stock android doesn't allow it ..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
No, it can't record 4k. 4k is 3840 x 2160, the Nexus 5's sensor takes 3264 x 2468 images, as well as not being a 16:9 sensor.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomancoolboy:
Ohh yes .. You are Right .

But as the Nexus 5 have the same sony sensor as the lg g2 just lowered resolution .. So it is atleast capable for most of the feats that an LG g2 can do
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Again, corners were cut. You can't. If it were possible, don't you think it would have been done already?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomancoolboy:
It's going to be there ..

Currently there is no burst mode option

For nexus 5 . but as they are going to Implement new camera APIs which i think can increase the functionality of the n5's camera ..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Software can't change hardware. Quit dreaming. It's not possible.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomancoolboy:
Have you even watched or read about Android L. Try doing some research ..

And do search about the new APIs ..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
You need to do some on how a camera works. If it's a hardware limitation, software can't do anything to change that.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomancoolboy:
There are no hardware limitations in nexus 5's camera .. And btw the sensor is sony IMX179 ..

Try to google it and read about its actual capabilities .. Thanks ..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
"]There is no hardware limitations in nexus 5's camera"?

There are so many things wrong with that sentence.

It's already been proven again and again by various developers that it's a hardware limitation. YOU do some Googling.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
they are adding a burst mode supposedly, among other things..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Charlus97:
It's possible to use 120 fps on nexus 5 (well, on the hardware side) :) The problem is that the drivers assigned to this are closed source.

Somebody seem to have managed to get a working driver with 120fps support. But it seems that it would need a custom camera app to get it working :/

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unster:
Hi guys,

my brand new Nexus 5 in on the way to me, so I started thinking about few things connected with this topic... One of these things was battery capacity.

Is it really that bad? How much it can last with some basic tasks done on it?

Thais was also a reason for me to start considering changing battery for much bigger one. Do you think is is a good idea to buy one of these batteries:

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/GETL...lacement-Battery-For-LG-Nexus/1884021445.html

Its capacity is much, much bigger than original battery, so probably it can power up Nexus much longer. What do you think about it?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GtrCraft:
Battery can last a day with average usage, and you know that you void warranty if you change the battery with a (unsafe) one
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bm19981217:
It's not that Bad. Some people get 5+ hours of sot. I get about 3 hours sot with normal use for 12 hours. A bigger battery will last longer but I don't think it's worth the risk of destroying your Nexus :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unster:
Thanks for the repays! Do you thinks there is some kind of seal near back-side screws or somewhere on battery cables? That is the way manufacturer can detect me swapping battery for this one?

And also what do you mean by destroying my phone by using it?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Opening the back voids your warranty. And you can't fit a bigger battery in either. If one claims to be larger, then it's probably a cheap fake.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unster:
Thanks for the reply. Can you please tell me, how can I (or them) determine if back of the phone was opened?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Adhesive is used and it's not the hardest to tell.

Anyways, opening the back cover (which instantly voids your warranty) then attempting to RMA is fraud. If your device fails then you'd have to buy a replacement off Google or get it repaired by LG. They won't replace/repair it without charging you when your warranty is void.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chainsuk:
And just asking those questions just proves you dont know what you are doing....so if it aint bust DONT fix it.....
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Yep lol. And the battery is fine, you just have to manage your wakes and syncs properly.

I think there's also adhesive behind the battery. It isn't hard for Google or LG to know if you opened it up.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unster:
Ok guys, thanks for that. It's true, I was not entirely sure what's going on with this battery. I will give it a test spin few weeks, if it really bother me I will then try to figure it out again. Any way, thanks for the tips :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontrun:
You can use deep sleep battery saver it saves a ton of battery juice when your phone is locked if you have root you can use the cpu feature which makes only one core active when your phone is locked so it overnight it will drain about 1 or 2% battery as an example
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Extremely unnecessary. First of all you'll never get notifications, secondly it could cause issues with various apps such as music players. If you have your wakelocks managed properly your device will be in deep sleep properly when it needs to. I lose 1% per 24 hours if I don't turn the screen on, with WiFi on.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unster:
Franco Kernel will do his job (on default settings) or it's totally different topic and I should something more?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Kernel isn't related to wakelocks lol.

There isn't a specific kernel or ROM that will save battery. It's mostly down to your own usage and setup, as well as how few wakelocks you get. If you have battery issues, 3rd link of my signature.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surrealjam:
100 days standby! Wowzer - I need to get me some of that.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontrun:
Ds battery manager wakes once every 1 hour or 45 minutes etc. - you set up the time - and cheks the notifications but I'll try ran much managers
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] republicano:
Battery life has been a great improvement with custom kernels and unnecessary apps, from what I read you usually can't increase mah without increasing the size.

The battery is small for the size of the screen

Your best unlocking the bootloader than putting a after market battery, especially if your going to with a qi charger that may generate more heat.

On the website it states battery capacity 3001mAh-4000mAh

On review states actual capacity is 1500mah

Japanese research and development yet made in china, I would expect it to be made in japan but I don't know how many batteries are made there these days.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
my phone losses 1% all night with all 4 cores on at all times. when a phone sleeps it sleeps, the cores dont make a difference. its when its not going to sleep when you lose more battery. btw, battery apps are a waste, considering that they are using the battery that you can be saving without them.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontrun:
Can you please tell me how to manage wake lock I downloaded wake lock detector but all it does is tell me what's active and also give me the link cause I'm on from my phone and don't know how to see your signature
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsychDrummer:
This isn't the first time I'm reading you say this and I'm still amazed. I feel like if I left my phone on airplane mode for 24 hours it would still go down by 2% or so.

OP, I would suggest just getting an external battery, or a battery case if you're that worried about battery life. Zerolemon, limefuel, and a 3rd company that I'm forgetting offer battery cases. They are somewhat expensive but I'm 99% sure that battery from alie is BS.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaco81:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinninbsod:
It depends on apps battery life is bad on stock if you have poorly written apps like facebooks app you will probably on get 2 hours sot but as soon as you remove it probably 4 hours sot
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wulsic:
Guys i wonder if i see the battery in the OP it doesn't seem legit to me since there are alot of batteries with those kind of labels but the actual capacity is much lower. Does that battery also fit without back modifications? If it does fit and that capacity is real what i doubt then its highly dangerous in my eyes which could lead to an explosion on a impact. So what do you want? An safe battery from lg/google or a unsafe one which might explode in your pocket or burn? I don't trust cheap replacement batteries and the thinner the phones get and the batteries I also don't really trust anymore, like you are carrying an bomb with you.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
The capacity of that battery isn't legit. If anything its smaller than the stock battery. Capacity is limited by size and to have a real battery with that capacity it would not fit.

Along with the danger risks of 3rd party cheap batteries of course. When you hear of battery explosions/fires all the time 9/10 times it's either a damaged or cheap 3rd party battery.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unster:
Thanks guys for all the answers in topic :)

I decided NOT to order that battery - I don't wan to hurt neither myself nor my brand new N5... I have worked a bit around greenifying processes and looking for jobs which wake up phone, we will see how it goes soon :)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonmorris:
Now that's different. I've had these before and they can work pretty well, although they can sometimes result in the phone getting very hot.

I had one (can't remember the make) for an Xperia Z. Worked great.

Then I got one for the Z1 which should have been a lot better, but it was so light I wasn't convinced the battery was the 3000-3500mAh claimed. I'd have said it was probably a fraction of that, and - sure enough - it never managed to add more than about 10-15% to the charge. A total waste of time.

So be careful, as even these can be not what you expect (or are told).

ALEGEN : Battery wise the best is alegen by far, also pretty damn stable(dont like settings organization and for me its not as smooth as AICP)

MAHDI : been great since forever, stable and fast, standard battery life.

Dear XDA developer,

I am new to rooting. And before rooting I searched almost all the websites for pros and cons of rooting. I recently rooted my LG G2 for connecting PS3 controller via sixaxis. But i noticed that the data consumption increased way too much before rooting. I frequently close any running apps from task manager, but still the battery is draining very quickly and increased data consumption. My friend told that while rooting the phone, may be some malware entered when installing super user. Please suggest what should I do to avoid this. Please help.
[Nexus 10 General] un.droid:
I have a nexus 10 v4.4.4, finally wanted to root it and install a custom recovery (cwm). I used the same method as i used on my nexus 5 with the same application - nexus toolkit. All drivers are installed, clicked on "unlock", booted into the screen where i should click "yes" in order to unlock bootloader. The devices rebooted and stuck in the booting animation. Searched a lot and read a lot, but i cant make the device boot normally. I am able to boot into fastboot (i suppose, the screen where you can skip between options like "recovery, "power off" and "restart bootloader". Can anyone give me a hand with restoring the device?

EDIT

ok i was able to fix this issue. In case anyone encounters the same exact issue, this is what went wrong and what was made in order to make everything work:

1. make sure fastboot recognizes your device, by typing in command line "fastboot devices". if your device is not listed, first fix this (check drivers and connectivity). i had to reboot my pc in order to communicate with my nexus.

2. now boot to fastboot by holding vol up + vol down + power button.

3. launch NTK and simply select "back to stock" and check "soft brick \ bootloop" option.

4. the app with download the image and afterwards everything is automated. you will reboot to the setup screen.

BIG thanks to WugFresh and his awesome tool Nexus Root Toolkit v1.8.6.

I got the way to get it finally.

When you got OTA update, please download it but don't install.

Go to download folder and you will find ota zip file. Copy this file to your pc, extract zip file, get recovery.img inside zip file.

Then just do fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Now your recovery already back to stock recovery and ready to install OTA.

After OTA you will lost your root and Bootloader back to lock.

If you go to HTC DEV to get unlock Bootloader, your phone will restore clean back to factory conditions. Please remember to back u your personal data.

Other alternatives that you can try using towel root apk to get root. If you succeed to get root with towel root, you can unlock Bootloader without HTC DEV.

Find in xda how to unlock Bootloader without HTC dev. Use M8 version is it the same as E8.
