    Post Nexus 5 Battery Results

    My battery life is fine as long as I keep GPS off. As soon as I launch the Maps app, battery will start to drain faster, and continues to drain faster even after I turn GPS off. Only restart fixes the issue. There is gotta be a wake lock somewhere. I know someone must have found the solution...

    Post How many times you have dropped your NEXUS 5 ?

    Fell on concrete as I was coming out of my car. Got a crack on the bottom right corner unfortunately. Good thing the majority of the display is not affected.

    Post [INFO] Nexus 5 OTA Help-Desk

    Putting in my own input. I'm bootloader unlocked, rooted, and Xposed framework installed, with TWRP recovery. To get from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3, follow option C in the op. Takes a little work, but flawless. Just needed to re-root, and grab the latest version of SuperSU afterwards and you should be...

    Thread Can't find Carrier specific file download

    When I first got my N5, it automatically connects to AT&T LTE network, even when the LTE network has bad connection. Then someone posted a carrier specific file, that allowed my N5 to drop to 3G whenever LTE connection is bad. I just upgraded to 4.4.3, and need to find that file again. The...

    Post What are you running on your nexus 5?

    Post *** Nexus 5 Shipping Waiting Room ***

    I ordered mine on 2/3, and just got the shipping confirmation yesterday. We can safely deduce that they probably get new batch of 16gb every 2 weeks or twice every month, hence the 2-3 weeks wait. If your order can get in the current batch, you'll receive it quickly. Otherwise you'll be waiting...

    Post [KitKat][RoM]&[KERNEL]&[RECOVERY][I337-XXUGNG2-4.4.2][SHOstock-i v8.1] [07/27/14]

    Everything is well except the stupid Google location service battery drain introduced in 4.3. Not Sho's problem, though he may be able to do something about it. I don't want to manually switch location service every time I use maps. Dealbreaker for me. Back to 4.2 until Google get their acts...
