anyone is using the nexus 5 naked? so far the back any visible scratches?
*
Been using it without a casing for nearly a week. I don't have any issues actually. The only reason i ordered a casing is because of the worry of a potential drop.

Satu gadget and direct d is the same... Prefer satu gadget as more convenient and also buying experience. You don't have to  q and also not crowded as their outlet is huge

Agreed, they are all smiles and 2 years warranty adds something awesome smile.gif

That's true, most seller is like this (well not all). I heard many RMA problems with directD but that was almost a year ago so maybe they improved? But for this phone, right now we dont really have much options unless willing to pay more tongue.gif

Last time when I buy notebook (from different seller) also damn awesome customer service, tak main come to my house, help me setup, register for warranty la, chit chat la, so friendly. Then last month need to RMA it, contacted him. Macam taik weh his after sales service. Ask me go do myself  shakehead.gif
*
Either way, lets see how it is la.. like you said bro.. no choice.. for this phone at the moment. If its bad, then i will write a bad review at their customer page (lets hope no issue with my phone la tongue.gif).

Either way, going to root now and install CM 11 if my slow shitmyx internet allows me to in ipoh. So bloody irritating.

There's no fees for porting over.

Why do you want to jump to Digi? Why not Maxis?
*
I am pretty sure he said he wants to port from DIGI to Umobile. Obvious reasons la.. digi's data coverage is horrible! and Umobile has LTE.

Guys, I think lte is coming to ipoh, especially my area at Canning Garden... Lte randomly pops up at 1 bar and its super fast. Not bad la..didn't even know Maxis was testing it out or something.

Update on CM11 , 17th Dec Nightlies.

Battery life on moderate/semi high usage (no gaming, all other social apps like fb and G+, skype , whatsapp like mad and calls are in use.

Bear in mind, i dont let notification come through on fb and g+ but i am usually always on the app all the time.

My battery is like 20 hours plus and 4hours 45 mins on screen time and battery is at 4 %. its pretty good and this is the 2nd day of usage.

On the first day i also got better battery life then stock at 20 hours and 4 hours 15 mins on screen.

my wifi is always on so is my data.


PS: I dont know , but i guess Cyanogenmod's kernal is modified so i can full change my phone in 2hours tops compared to the usual 2.hours 20 mins plus on stock 4.4.2

bought mine from 7mobile..free power bank,OTG + some other stuffs. 

initially wanted to buy from 1 Gadget but not really happy vmad.gif  with them..went there Sat morning they said "no stock, tmr restock". Fine, i go home wait for tomorrow.. then saw forumer here say able to get the phone at night, i was like 'wtf? you told me this morning you dun have stock???'.

FNE, then today morning i call in, watsapps asked 3 different ppl, 2 of them said no more stock, one of them say 'Yes, limited stock' then i immediately go there to buy it. When i reach there, they tell me nexus 5 no stock.  mad.gif #$%^!&#@% mad.gif  i told them i watapps you guys said have stock only i come, now you tell me no stock?

FINE i ask him when will restock?? that fella still like very unsure and said myb night will re-stock..myb few week. i was like wtf again? your shop selling phone and you duno when will have stock? the stock drop from sky suddenly?? suddenly you have stock, where does the stock came from??

ask different staff can get different answer. great. wasted my time, my parking fee.
*
Sorry bro but you are unlucky, i went in the afternoon 2 weeks ago, and basically no issues with parking (parked for free tongue.gif) and i also walked in and had a choice of either black or white. I chose black 16gb and walked out within 20 mins. One thing though, they dont know their own price, and I had to tell them I saw a specific price on lowyat forum and then they agreed.

Either way, its fine, now you can get the 312 set, but I am actually happy with my 311 set smile.gif

Guys my nexus battery is becoming worse…
The phone is on idle a lot in office with very good 3G signal throughout
It's on 3G data all the time

This is typically what I get…
Slightly over 2 hours screen on time with about 1 day standby
Android device manager is both turn off and location is set to battery saving

Appreciate help to fix this
Thanks

Ok first things first stock or custom rom/kernel?

2ndly your phone looks normal, but what you can do is to do a full format from the recovery and start from scratch.
If that doesnt work, something could be wrong..

For those who are interested to achieve smoothness better than pennzoil with antutu scores of A+ such as below (for those who care about benchmark - I do)
ROM: Cataclysm
Kernel: ElementalX .22
Settings for FauxClock is attached
For I/O - am trying out ROW, FIOPS or DEADLINE - smoother on ROW

ElementalX or Franco kernel?

Both are good, but I am using Faux 007M right now with his FauxCLock app and suggested settings and loving it.

Franco is good and I love elementalx's cooler colours option smile.gif, the choice is yours, all kernels are good in their own way.

I love Faux, good battery life and performance for me smile.gif

LOL!! I meant to write  -50~75mV , my bad tongue.gif
Haha yeah, I undervolt all my nexus devices (~100mv).
Want try uv 100mv and do another stress test, see can take it or not.

You got the knowledge, should be alright  thumbup.gif
Try all kernel and roms, everybody's preference is different biggrin.gif
*
My nexus 5 cant go to -100, it would reboot. However, i can push my 300mhz settings to -175. I dont really do that anymore, very slight difference either way. Thats the reason why i usually undervolt ot -75 or -50. More then enough for me smile.gif

About roms= use either the stock 4.4.2 rom or try cataclysm or purity.

I am using rastakat and loving it smile.gif
