Just got my Nexus 5. Looking at getting a matte case. So far I've seen 3 that look pretty good:

Caseology Matte Finish Slim Fit Flexible Hybrid TPU Case
Diztronic Matte Back Black Flexible TPU Case
Spigen Google Nexus 5 Case Slim
However, they don't seem to ship internationally from Amazon. Does anyone know how to get these cases, or similar cases?

For Spigen case you can look for FlushX bro in the mobile phone bazaar. He has ready stock. http://deluxeforums.hardwarezone.com.sg/mobile-phones-bazaar-201/wts-spigen-accessories-iphone-5s-5c-5-ipad-mini-w-retina-ipad-air-htc-one-s4-note-3-nexus-5-a-4165037.html

No need to cut sim to micro. I simply "punched" out the micro sim from my normal sim. The "frame" of the normal sim was left behind. I only discovered this after queuing to get a micro sim and the CSO took out a normal sim and asked if I wanted her to punch it out for me or I do it myself!

For me i use Tenso for JP purchases. not too sure for other guys.. Tenso is like US version of comgateway..pretty reputable.

just report u lost phone and they will give u a sim card, go to nearby phone shop cut $5 to nano sim or micro sim

No need tool to punch out. The sim has ready made lines.

sorry so after report loss and they give you a micro sim; your current sim will be deactivated, or can still use? i.e. can both be active?

should be the current sim deactivated.
they should be giving u a sim instead of a micro-sim.

the new one will be activated... the old one u can use to flip to the dustbin.

Thanks guys.

Is the N5 able to emulate G2's knock-on feature? In the first place how is the G2's knock-on any different from any other android's slide-to-wake feature which I believe consumes more battery since the screen needs to be put on certain "standby" mode?

Its kernel controlled. You will need to root your phone in order to do so. still WIP.

i have a white US set 32GB to let go, anyone interested can PM me.

one more thing, my friend dropped his n5 and now half of the screen is blank, although the screen itself isn't cracked. Liddat how ah? Can RMA?
