Wooah! So long didn't post here already. Been busy messing with the settings on N5.

Did a clean wipe just now.
Managed to get 5 hours SOT on the first run, fully stock. Not bad! With a few optimizations here and there plus the magic of Franco kernel, booom!

nicely done bro..sorry to ask this noob question, how to install franco kernel? i just flash my phone with cataclysm rom.

exactly how you flash the ROM, just download the .zip file

really? i tot it would need some modifications here and there.
so if i flash the kernel, do i need to backup my data? afraid it will wipe my data

Not sure but I think with Rhino Shield, your phone screen might have survived...

i dont know, maybe yes and maybe no.
actually i already ordered Rhino Shield for my N5, but looks like it too late now.

Ya I saw that post but how excatly did he tersepit it? He put it at the edge? Usually people will put in the bonet ma, not at the edge  rclxub.gif

its hard for me to explain in English, let me explain it in malay.
semalam i pergi PD, lepas siap mandi pantai i tukar baju di belakang pintu. disebabkan sudah gelap i bukak torch kt N5 i. i letak n5 tu dekat bonet belakang, kereta estima punya bonet belakang, dan i letak dekat dengan engsel pintu tu.
then lepas siap i lupa hp i then i close the bonet.

most probably getting a second hand Nexus 5 is better than taking the risk n cost to repair it, as u not sure whether any other thing broken.
*
where to buy second hand N5? every N5 owners love their Nexus. hahah
i also consider to sell my N5 and get the new one. but dont know if anyone want to buy it anyway.

Guys, i am in Osaka now. Many of the shop are selling nexus 5 ! Lol.

how much they sell for 16gb and 32gb black?
and maybe u can ask how much the price for the screen only, maybe i can change the screen here if u bought 1 there.

thats only the price of screen, not include the postage and labour service

this page gives me a clue that replacing the N5 screen could be expensive due to the screen is fused to the display module. they said that replacing the screen could be expensive or very difficult.

Erm... It's very common for display to be fused to the glass. Nexus 4, Nexus 5, all Samsung AMOLEDs, iPhone 4 onwards, etc etc

You can only replace the glass alone if you can apply enough heat to defuse the display from the glass.
*
some say that it would be easier if u change the module once than replace the glass alone.
its because its difficult to replace the glass only.
