Hello,

I'm having trouble finding the liquid damage indicator of the nexus 5, I know it's in the sim card tray, but what does the indicator look like? I can only see a white piece of strip, it might be too obvious to be the indicator itself?

Thank you

Look at the ifixit.com teardown guide of the Nexus 5. More than likely they'll confirm the location of the water damage indicator.

it seems it is in the simcard tray.

"The Liquid damage indicator(LDI) is located where the SIM tray is inserted. It is very difficult to see and only a sliver of the LDI is visible when the SIM card tray is removed."
not 100% sure as t-mobile refers to "T-mobile devices" but as they are describing the nexus 5 here so, it should or could apply.
