What kind of back up file? Are you using any app to backup your data? I used titanium backup, and it works. Whatsapp backups also work, but you have to transfer these files via USB first

thanks for the reply.. for xperia z, i back up the content to my computer.. so, i am wondering if it is possible to transfer import it into nexus 5 from my computer directly..

Nv tried apps for backup before... So, after migrating the old data from your previous phone to nexus 5, were there any issues in particular?

Most likely need to reconfig all your app again.
Contact details will be sync automatically\
musics and other files need to transfer manually

music, videos etc just copy to ur pc, then paste from ur pc to ur nexus 5. for contacts its synced via google account. whatsapp chat log you can just copy ur entire whatsapp folder paste on ur nexus 5. For messaging/call logs etc, quite impossible since they are using different apk.

the screen is super fragile. I dropped it while coming out from my car, (height of about 1-2 feet) & the screen cracked :( Gorilla glass 3.. pui!! scratch resistant at the expense of brittleness.

I also dropped my s2 & s4 & ip4 many times, so far only ip4 back glass one crack. But first time drop n5, multiple cracks.

searched online & it seems there are many victims too. USA LG quote usd140+ for the screen alone..

so guys please be careful OK.

Also my speaker volume is terribly soft compare to my s4. My is the first batch, order 2nd day after launch. someone posted in xda about manufacturing defect using too much glue, he used a hot needle to poke a hole to allow sound to escape. Apparently not all are affected.

anyone have this soft speaker volume problem as well?

Using it with Cataclysm rom and Franco kernel. Some said it's placebo but when u press the recent button and seeing the multitask window opens instantaneouly everytime, u know ART is the best thing since sliced bread.

One should always avoid to drain lithium ion battery to too low. Lithium battery has an internal protection circuitry, somehow once dropped below certain threshold, the protection circuit will be in locked state that disallowed charging to happen, and only unconventional charging method could be used to reset the circuit to allow charging, unfortunately most charging circuit used on products like phone will assume this as bad battery.

I did successfully revive a few however one needs to have the proper knowledge to handle lithium ion battery otherwise you may get hurt

Yap. Try to charge your phone when it it @ 50% mark.
