The Nexus 5 Thread

[swgj86]

Anyone excitingly waiting for Android 5.0 to come out? Anyone using preview can advise whether it improved batt life?

me! cant wait for Android 5.0 to arrive.

though its like a race among the android vendors to see who can issue the fastest update. seems like LG has a headstart for the G3.

 

[cheong79]

seems like a good deal

is there any warranty for this?



first few pages in this thread got clarified that 821 can use lte here but not 820

some time back, i ask quite a similar question like this... someone told me why am i even so lazy to google. then again, my question is slightly more technical/different than yours...

don't know why but i find apple threads friendlier, they don't mock at people when they ask basic questions. only damn thing is, i am no longer on iphone, unless they innovate better

Cause apple threads users mostly girls & women which are more patient.

Have rah... I waited for Play store to ship me my RMA then I return the defective phone...

See where no warranty? Better than having to leave your phone with SomeSong service Centre for days or weeks without a phone

Oh ya, although the refurbished one on eBay dunno have warranty not.. Depending on that seller ba..

Bro, how much you spend to sent back to Google?

Do you declared GST when you forward to Singapore? How to explain, its a RMA set?

Think unable to avoid incoming gst if u use cgw, unless if u ship to friend who hand carry back.

Total maybe under $80 and u get a "refurbished" replacement phone..

I think manual download of factory image should be either today or tomorrow!

correct me if i am wrong, install of factory image means factory reset of phone rite?

yeah you should backup your important files first, if you want to flash it yourself instead of waiting for OT, or if you're coming from custom Rom

Doesn't need, if u manually flash boot and system partition leaving data partition intact. Or just comment the line that flashes data partition in the flash all script.

idk how to do that for factory images.. only custom roms, which is easier to understand using custom recovery..

Remove the -w in the flash-all.bat before executing will do. Been doing that for my past flashings.

[shichuanhua]

I flashed xTraSmooth_2.0 instead, since it's based on factory img

 

[DXMachina]

Did you guys all flash with a new start (wipe out all data on phone) or chose to keep your data? Am concerned that it might not run as nicely if I keep my files
