the 2 casing that i order from ebay spigen email me that 1 of the black casing was delay due to production bla bla... out of my surprise they will gv me another crystal clear casing as free.... thats mean i buy 2 casing but get 3 casing pula.... and yet i not yet order my nexus 5 tongue.gif  .... can start selling the extra crystal clear casing already to cover my shipment cost i guess.

Bro..r u sure it is free casing? I got the message from spigen too and i am pretty sure it says nexus 5 ultra crystal which is a screen protector.

Well..I guess my casing won't arrive on time together with device...

Mind telling me why you guys choose Nexus 5 over LG G2?
Both manufactured by LG and G2 has better camera with all the unnecessary bloat wares which can be corrected with Custom Rom.
Otherwise specs are similar
Asking because I need to make an educated choice
*
To me, it is about branding. Yes both are from LG but the name Nexus makes it feel better. lol

Apart from the fast update, there's also the vanilla android experience that I m looking for.

Call me ignorant if u want....haha

Should i custom the rom to 4.4.1 and unlock the whatever-you-called-it to install the 4.4.1 or just wait for the official release and just hit the update button from my phone?

First time android user here -.- but travelling on friday so i wish to have the camera updated...
*
If u r still on stock un-rooted, just download the 4.4.1 OTA file from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2556906 and sideload it. No need to unlock bootloader

erm... how do i know if it is stock unrooted??

Ermm..U haven't done any rooting or install any custom rom on your phone right when u got it? So it is still using the stock 4.4 rom that comes with the phone..then u can download the 4.4.1 ota file in the above link to upgrade.

Coming from a Galaxy note, i really can see that my N5 has the yellow tint....probably the difference between AMOLED and IPS display? I am not sure myself...

Amoled displays usually carries a bluish tone and never any yellowish tone based on all the Samsung phones/tablets I have used to date

Thank you uncle Benny... biggrin.gif

calibrated screens should be warm, so nothing wrong with n5 there. note is the phone with less accurate colors.

Hope you are right. Coz I hate to RMA not knowing what I will get next, could be worse and not to mention the waiting time...

my contacts imported from old nokia phone to nexus 5, but missing the + sign before phone number,  : 012123456  instead +6012123456 , how to add the + in all contacts?

Don't think it is necessary, is it?

with the + sign or not, they work just fine...

For those who felt their display looks like somebody pissed on it, you should try the elementalx kernel. It sets the display to a cooler tone and also some other useful feature like double tap to wake or swipe to wake.
