Don't fret about the battery until we try kitkat. Apparently, kernel 3.10 is real a battery optimizer.

I am rather skeptical how 2300mAH perform like 3000mAH capacity.

Did a quick comparison between the japanese and australian google play store and the australian one is the cheapest, only slightly more expensive than if you buy from US. If anyone wants to set up a MO, getting from Australia seems to be your best bet.

Will look to see if i know someone from Australia that is willing to do a MO. Most of my friends are in the US haha.

Well the iphone 5s only has a 1570mAh battery. A lot can be done with an optimised kernel. I'm not giving up on google until we actually try KitKat

Who knows, maybe we can swap out the N5 battery with a 3000mAh G2 battery. Gonna spend the next few weeks deep diving inside XDA to see if someone manages to come up with a hack

Aus shipping is the killer right?

clear your cache , reopen browser, make sure u are using the correct vpn
if all don't work, create a new account while using vpn also

But most of the time is the screen size and lte drain the battery.

turn on lte only when u need it? screen = no choice
i rmb the days my nexus 4 can last freaking long, with just kernel optimisation
