Any bros who ordered skins from dbrand, have any idea how long would the shipping time be to SG? i ordered mine on 19 June but haven't received it.

I got mine in 8 days from shipping date. You may want to check your mailbox, cos they post it like a normal letter post in an envelope.

You can use a thin flat head screwdriver instead. I was able to open it quite easily with that when changing the battery.

Hello all. I dropped my n5 this afternoon, and it got stucked at boot loop after plugging into charger. I tried to hold the volume Buttons and it went into fastboot, but then boot looped out again and again. After researching a fair bit, i concluded that its the power button fault. Anyone know of any repair shop or solution for it?

You can try to open it up and put it back in place or use some bluetack

The power button of my N5 is spoilt anyone knows a repair shop in SG that repairs it?

Thought of buying the switch component online but I cannot solder, I teardown and see the switch so tiny.

Got it fixed at BreakFixNow at Bugis!
Done in 45 minutes!

Decided to do my own homework with Google:
https://www.google.com.sg/webhp?hl=en#hl=en-SG&q=singapore+phone+repair

my speaker is not working on nexus 5. anyone recommend a shop to fix it? thanks :D

For speakers should be an easy fix as its a unit by itself, don't think need to solder. Should be able to buy a replacement speaker unit online.

That is if you are very sure is the speaker that is spoilt and not some wire or chip the audio data goes in along the way to the speaker.

Can also try the shops in that Google search if not confident.
