Well actually, I have MetroPCS (but they use T-Mobile's "network" (not sure the best way to say that)). Another strange thing is that my ChromeCast can connect through my WiFi hotspot no problem once I make those changes. Just not my computer. I need to check another device, perhaps my roommates phone and see what happens. I've tried everything I can think of on the PC side and nothing works. I've googled and read at least 20 different threads...

Thanks for the new build..... Very fast.... [MENTION=1050103]sykopompos[/MENTION] you did a very good thing by removing the google apps.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
The reason I asked is that there is a procedure here that will enable tethering on T-Mobile and it involves making sure your APN is setup properly and creating an entry in sqlite file called settings.db. I know from experience that the database edit is only required if you have a pre-paid account without a tethering allowance and only the APN setup is required for a post-paid account since they now have all their 4G data allotment eligible for tethering.

I currently have both pre-paid and post-paid T-Mobile accounts and tether works on this ROM with both of them when that setup is followed, but no experience with MetroPCS and I know the MVNO's (at least StraightTalk) are restricted for roaming and tethering when using T-Mobile's network.

It's probably worth a try though. And if doesn't work, T-Mobile now has a monthly post-paid plan with 2GB of data for $45/month which is pretty competitive with their MVNO's and that's all eligible for tethering.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] sjknight413:
It's just easy, quick and simple. The only trouble with it is that the design and ui is horrible, haha.

I don't like that when you restore with TB you have to manually install every app, unless you buy pro of course. The design and ui with titanium backup are also horrid! It's the unnecessarily cluttering that puts me off the most, when I use a backup app I just want to click a straightforward option and have it backup my apps.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] bobby janow:
[MENTION=275009]ramjet73[/MENTION] suggested it to me yesterday and I downloaded the free version to try out and then bought the Pro version. I've been using Titanium Pro for at least 3 or 4 years now but lately it's been giving me some agita with restores. I also wanted to backup to an OTG and the company explained in detail how to do it with a very timely email. (right as I wanted to flash b17!) I find the UI pretty easy but that's just me. I have had no problems with TiB until L preview. I'll probably use both for now since I am very familiar with TiB for some quick tasks. Def worth the free download if you want to try it out.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Wh1t3Rose:
Just wanted to make sure. Are you using Test 6 version of TIBU (not from play store)

On B16 I used the built in one but that's not working on b17. I'll install the test 6 from the apk I have and try it again.

Hey, while we're at it, is there a way to get charging while an OTG is mounted? I have a wireless charger but it will not charge while the otg is plugged in. Just curious if you know. Not much on Google other than it might be kernel related.

Google plus, settings, your account, contacts, then check off Keep Contacts up to date. Then it's back. You can uncheck it after that too.

Once again, just informing... flashed B16 over B17 and no problems. Titanium works good as well every other app that i have. Email and contacts sync good. Just flashed b17 > hybrid kernel > superSU v16. Wipe system, dalvic & cache first. Has i said before only problem is the known problem with wifi but choosing only one band seems to be more stable. - Don´t forget that using another Kernel it´s more dificult to get rom debuging with the developer.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
AFAIK there's no way to use USB OTG and charge the phone at the same time even though that can be done with the Nexus 4 using the OTG hack (the N4 does not natively support OTG). However, using an OTG adapter like this one allows you to power the device, so the drain on the phone's battery is minimized.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] mendozaram:
Thx to both... I was already logged to my g+, it works after check ON "Keep contacts up to date".... then i turned OFF again.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hoopsdavis:
Anyone getting better battery life using custom kernel? If so which kernel are you using?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
IMO if you are going to pay $280 you might as well go for a new one and get the color you want with a warranty. I know it was 32GB but that OTG micro SD card adapter I linked before is about $15, and cheaper knock-offs are available on eBay, so you should be able to get an OTG USB card reader and a quality 16GB micro SD card for about $30 or less and be able to go up to 128GB on an SD card in the future.

And it might be worth waiting until next week when the Nexus 6 starts shipping since there may be a price drop then. I've read articles saying that there's no new production by LG of the Nexus 5 even though it's technically not discontinued yet so I'm still thinking there might be a smaller (5.2 inch) "Moto X" version of the Nexus 6 waiting in the wings.

That's my two cents.

That one was sold already. Just trying to see if I can low ball it like people were saying to get a good deal on it, if not no biggie.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] bobby janow:
The most you can probably get off on a decent one will be a few bucks. It's probably not worth it. Get the 32gb or you'll be sorry in the long run. Multirom will eat up the space rather quickly too. Pick a nice looking one and just go for it. Have them throw in free shipping overnight if you can.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
Another good reason to get the 32GB version is using your phone for navigation, which my sister does, so I advised her to get that model. Living in Honolulu I don't drive very far ;) but my understanding is that Google Maps still requires being online for the incremental map updates? Even if it doesn't, those maps are going to take some space, and a totally offline navigation program like Copilot requires even more space for its maps.

And of course, some people still do carry music and videos on their phones, since when you are out of range for WiFi and cellular data the cloud doesn't work very well. But that can also be handled with USB OTG storage. :good:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Why would they? The new nexus phone has been announced. It would be really abnormal for Google to announce another phone. The only option now is either two things. By some oddity they announce a 5 inch rehash at I/O in six months, this was the speculation for the n4 two years ago when everyone was hoping for a legit LTE variant. 2, wait for a GPE phone. I'm sure there will be a few. Most likely the same as last year. Moto X, GS 5, M8. Unfortunately you'll be paying a premium for option 2, and option one is highly unlikely. There's still always hope that the android silver program could get announced. But isn't that pretty much what the GPE phones are? Its funny how almost all the rumors come true to extent.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] ramjet73:
I think that will depend on how the sales of the 6 inch model go.

Most of us here consider the Nexus 5 a developer's phone but in fact it was a commercial success and a money maker for Google. All four major US carriers will be selling the Nexus 6 but if the acceptance lags behind the Nexus 5 historical sales and that of competitive phones, which I personally hope it does, it would make sense for Google to introduce a smaller model.

Regardless of what happens with a possible "little brother" for the Nexus 6, I believe the rumors are true that LG is no longer manufacturing the Nexus 5, so its value will definitely go up if there is no equivalent replacement.

ramjet73
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ptesmoke:
I'm in the upgrade boat with my carrier though I'm in Canada and hate signing a contract so I've been purchasing nexus devices from google since the gnex. the N6 is just pricey enough that I can't justify buying it just for the sake of buying it when my N5 certainly isn't letting me down. I may sign with my carrier IF they get the N6...though I may just wait until next years nexus, I love the size of the N5 personally.

The T-Mobile jump plan is pretty sweet and I got in when it was every 6 months (heard they changed it to a % ) because it skips the headache of selling a phone to upgrade.

Don't get me wrong, I like my g3 (couldn't say the same thing about the Sony z1s) but it isn't a nexus. I don't find it a huge upgrade to why the g3 offers nor care for the size but the aosp code is my reasoning for it for development
