[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amit.tiger12:
I can't say that its worth buy, but there is no other mobile to replace Nexus 5.

Using from January 2014 to December 2014, its working fine, no hardware problem, unless you messed up with it.

I got water damaged and I replaced screen.. So I think buying with screen guard/scratch guard and back case/bumper case for extra protection will be good.

And about software updates, yes its really fast, factory images comes first and then ota.

But problem is with some apps does not give support for new OS that much fast, so you will have to wait. And updates always fix issues so need to look around or googling issues.

Yes it was good choice, don't know now, but there no such replacement so you can buy it with close eyes.

Nexus 5 vs nexus 6 as you mentioned.. Nexus 6 cost high, because of nexus 6 you can see some great deals coming out from amazon.in, flipkart.com, snapdeal.com these sites, so why not steal the deal..

Talking about RAM, it depends on how Google will look in to future, and how game developers develops it. 3 GB RAM can be for high end gaming or support for great os, how Google will develop its OS and how great games will created depends on it. As of now 3 GB does not matter but its future proof.

About storage I recommend you to get 32 GB if you play games (big, high end), music and movies etc etc... My nexus 5 19 GB space filled up with music and some games and some photo videos... Connecting OTG is big headache if need again and again, so buy 32GB.

Rooting is really great, for OTG you will need that.

Try OTG USB devices instead of OTG cable if you want.

nexus 5 media importer (total useless), stick mount (great = but root needed).

For total commander + plugin, I used it when I was not rooted my device, you have to copy videos to play it on your device. I used to do this, so I recommend you to root it.

ES File manager is really good but I never tried its OTG on non rooted nexus 5.

Why you need to download directly to OTG? I did not tried it but you can download it directly.

I did not get you on storage...??

You want to ask that there are restriction on installing apps??

I have 32 GB model, which gives me around 27 GB space, where I can install all 27 GB games or 27 GB space for videos. How you want to use your device is upto you.

Earlier I installed almost 8-9 GB games in total (HD and big games). It was running smoothly. No need to worry.

I never tried to download directly to OTG, because chrome browser never asks you, and I don't mind where it saves ;)

And don't screw up your battery downloading over wifi for movies games. ;)

As I said above, paying 1000 rs for extra protection will always help you.

For screen you don't need it but for the back, get back case/ bumper case, you will definitely need that.

Finally, it is really good to use lollipop, I tried for 6-7 days, and then installed 4.4.4 again.

Everything working fine, but some of the apps were not working on it because its new OS, so installed 4.4.4 again and rooted it. Will install lollipop next week, I think most of the apps support lollipop now so will try next week.

I also want to buy another nexus 5 for my brother, so waiting some great deal.
