[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
what are you talking about? where do yoy hear these rumors? the 16gb model has about 13gb free for you to use. only the samsung sgs 1, 2, 3, and 4 had 8gb in their 16gb versions, because samsung adds much useless junk to their stock roms. the nexus devices NEVER come with bloatware.

also, there is NO SUCH THING AS A BEST ROM. to every person, they are different. best is only for you, and what fits your needs best. there isnt such a thing as a one size fits all rom. anyways, xda does not let you ask this question, as theres no best roms.

also, cm might be popular, but its far from a good rom.

before you do anything to your phone, learn first. read about modding, about how to fix things, about how to do things properly before you do anything, or youll be starting a thread titled "help, i bricked my dev ice".
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreeyps2:
OK, maybe I lied... I have a HTC Desire and I installed ~3 custom ROMs on it. I currently use Cyanongenmod V7.

A friend of mine told me that the stock android uses ~8 GB on his Nexus 5 (32 GB version).

I was thinking at installing Elix-R custom ROM.

It seems to be a simple ROM, for what I need... simple things.

What do you guys think?

I found just now the rules about "BEST ROM". I'm sorry ! But now I'm talking about Elix-R ROM :D Not breaking the rules anymore.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
install what you like, as there are many good roms for the n5(almost all of them). it takes minutes to flash, if you dont like a rom, flash another. no one is going to tell you which rom to use.

your friend is a bit off, android doesnt use 8gb, it uses almost 3.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreeyps2:
Umm, I will go for the Elix-R one.

The zip file has ~400 mb.

Do you guys know ~ how much space it will occupy after I install it?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
more than 400mb. you have 3gb dedicated to system stuff, it doesnt touch your storage, and you cant use the other space left over in the system, its only for system stuff.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreeyps2:
Thank you guys very much for the help !

Another question...

After I root my Nexus 5 and install Elix-R... I was thinking at buying a Micro SD adapter.

The product is called "Dash Micro with USB-MicroUSB Adapter & Case, Carbon Black". It costs 12$ and it's from the company named meenova.

I will be able to install apps & games on the SD Card and open & play them ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Not sure about apps and games, but you'll need Stickmount or an alternative if the ROM doesn't have it implemented.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLastSidekick:
Google the product name followed by the word review and you'll likely be able to determine if the purchase is one you should make or not. More likely than not, someone with a Nexus 5 has bought that product before and left a review.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Apps as in apk, no but game data (including obb) yes, with root and folder mount.

However a word of warning, the N5 isn't comfortable to play games in landscape mode with a USB device hanging out the port.

Personally I gave up and will get much bigger memory on my next device.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andreeyps2:
The "comfortable" thing will not be a problem for me xD but thanks anyway for the information !

So i had my phone rooted and running stock 4.4.2. I noticed on my notification bar it said there was an update to my phone. Being that im rooted i didnt do anything. So i get home phone was working good then i took a nap. When i woke up my phone was in CWM recovery. I dont know what happened, i tried wiping everything and flashed but still dosent work. Can anybody tell me what happened or better yet how i can fix this? Right now im using my wifes spare LG,but i really want to fix mine.

Another tip when putting the phone into download mode would be removing the battery before pressing the necessary keys.. Once the dl prompt appears battery maybe reinserted back

ok thanks for the help, but ill have to do this after i get back from work. pulling a grave yard shift tonight.
[LG Optimus G Pro] blitzkriegger:
oh by the way, just to add, while phone is of, simultaneously press the power key and the middle part of the volume keys, with the battery removed. Then insert the usb cable. That should do the trick. Good luck!

You are in CWM boot loop. You don't have to take the lg flash tool.

There are some simple method to fix it.

try this method if your PC could recognize your phone.

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petra2201:
I picked a pair of these phones cheap on ebay and I'm excited to see all the options for such an old phone. My question for you guys is what Rom would you recommend? One of the phones is going to my wife. She doesn't care what version she is on. For her the camera has to work as well as texting, and facebook, etc. etc. I think I saw an older gingerbread based rom that would do well for her but I can't see if their might be anything newer. As for me I'd like to get away with at least ICS so I can use google notes and I need the gps to work as it tracks my business mileage. Does anyone have any good suggestions? I was looking at Evervolv for me but the thread trailed off and I don't know if mms was ever fixed.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musical_chairs:
KitKat: MMS was never fixed on Evervolv 4 (kitkat). I gave up trying to fix it, and there has been very little activity on the legacy devices from the Evervolv team.

JellyBean: Tiny's CM10.1 was probably the best Jelly Bean build, the thread is here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2050930

I believe this is the most recent build: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2050930

Video Camera is either mostly broken or completely dead, I don't exactly remember, but other than that it worked pretty well, I ran that ROM as my daily driver for a long time.

ICS: Most of the links for ICS builds will likely be dead by now, but there is still a build of Evervolv ICS available at the bottom of this page:

http://evervolv.com/devices/inc

I ran that one for a while too, but I don't remember anymore if it had any nagging issues. Evervolv 2.2.0 is ICS, 3.0.0 is Jelly Bean.

For your wife, Gingerbread sounds like the way to go, CyanogenMod still has some builds on their site:

http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=inc

GPS should work fine on whatever ROM you choose.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazycrazyboi:
Awesome! I pulled out my old Dinc so that I could make it my designated business phone since I didn't want to use my personal one! The last ROM I ever installed I remember having issues with lag
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] petra2201:
Thank you so much!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2776902:
For me personally, I'm still using CM7. It's been great for, well, 3 years so far. I've played with ICS, JB, KitKat and such, but the stability of CM7 is great. I've been using the stable CM 7.2 build since it dropped in 2012.

The other ROM that is decently stable is of course the stock ROM. Though the data/data fix is just about necessary for it, seems to fill up faster with Sense vs AOSP.

I still use my Inc from time to time, and in service when my daily is being repaired or being sold. Been using the iPhone recently, but always come back at some point. Have to give each a try with each release, :cool:

You will find they aren't that fast in todays terms and rich, data heavy web sites and apps. But for general usage it's still just fine. I use CM7 and Smart Launcher or Launcher Pro, stock apps like Maps, Gmail, SMS, etc all work great. Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Dropbox, Evernote are also good to go. So it's still capable. Just take note the batteries are old if they haven't been replaced, and weren't ever very good to begin with.

Cheers!
[Sprint LG G3] blmvxer:
This isn't my first rodeo in the root world and I'm usually more careful when I know I won't have a custom recovery for awhile.

Well after using Stump Root everything was working fine and normal and then I pushed GTA III over to my applications because it wouldn't install.

I got a boot loop on the Sprint Spark animation. Downloaded the tot for zv4 aswell as the dll file. and it runs fine on the LG Restore tool but then boots into MiniOS and shows "Factory Reset 2"

Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this? I've looked everywhere for solutions on the G3 and even looked around on the G2 and no solutions.

Steps!

1 Download LG Flash Tool and LG Drivers

2. Download the tot and dll file for your devices.

3. Boot Into Download Mode(Power + Volume up when the LG screen Pops up press those keys again)

4. Open the Command Line and type devmgmt.msc and look for com and switch your G3 to port to 41.

5. Open LG Flash Tool and Put your dll and tot files in and use Board DL not Update DL(Very Important or you'll boot into MiniOS with a "Factory Reset Status 2" screen.

6. Start the tool with your phone plugged in. when It says ready unplug and replug your phone in. It'll run for awhile

7. It should boot into MiniOS just hit ok. Push power button plus touch the screen where it says Normal boot+(power)

8. Profit???

Greeting,

Sorry if this has been covered but every search comes back blank.

I live in Perth Western Australia and we have just started daylight savings for the first time. Problem is when I move my clock forward the 1hr it keeps changing all my appointment times by 1hr also....which I don't wont to happen!

I assume I'm doing something wrong but can't see the solution, could some please advise how to change times without changing appointments.

Cheers all,

marto
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] marto_martin:
A further update on this. O2 don't have any solutions, there advise is to "uncheck" the "Synchronize Mobile Device clock upon connecting" box which is under the Options tab in Microsoft Activesync.

The other strange thing is all dates in my Outlook calender since the commencement of daylight savings have moved themselves forward 1hr even though the time on my mini are still correct??

Perhaps microsoft have a solution or answers.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] zerimar:
Here in Europe DST starts on the last Sat/Sun of March and ends on the last Sat/Sun of October. As long as the timezone and regional settings are right the OS pops up a message asking the user for confirmation of the time change. Your PC must likewise be set accordingly for appointment times to be in sync.

I think this auto on/off of DST is built-in in the OS. Since it is the first time that Australia is using DST, I'm not so sure if would work for you automatically. You might have to manually advance the clock by 1 hour to both your unit and PC.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] gjlamb:
We've just started DST (Sydney, Australia) today and I noticed that my PC (Vista) changed automatically but my PDA (JasJam) updated with HTC WM6 didn't change. I can't find anywhere to sync the clock with the computer in Vista Mobile Device Centre and can't find anything on WM6. I did a sync and soft reset but it still stayed on non-DST time. I manually changed the clock and synced and the time stayed and my appointments stayed ok in Outlook but I'm not sure what's going to happen with my invitations to other ppl though.

Is there supposed to be somewhere to change the region/time to DST??
