Better in which aspects? Battery life, stability or performance, if compare to faux and other kernel?

And I would like to know what you guys do to improve the speaker loudness and quality? I've tried faux sound, it seems doing little effects.

Thanks

I use faux and battery life and performance is good. My usage with faux compare to other kernel is better for me.

My sound setup: using Viper4Android.

Not really, I love the new Note 3 faux leather design.

I actually dislike the faux leather back. When I saw the unpacked for the Note 3 and saw the leather back, was thinking "The fuq?". Was on video call with another friend at that time and both of us disagree with the leather back design. Just look weird shocking.gif to me.

Oh well; to each his own.

Check your settings > mobile network > preferred network type.

I use GNex. Still got people ask "what brand is that? never saw". I just said this is Nexus..Google phone made by Samsung. Then they all like "if made by samsung, why never saw at samsung shop or any other phone shop. not popular?". I was like "yeaaa..."  sweat.gif
*
I actually saw GNEx in a few shops (AEON fka. Jusco also saw before) when I was shopping for S2 (yeah..I bought S2 when GNex came out;was still a noobie then); while on the other hand, N4 you can sometimes see at Digi stores only sweat.gif . GNex got more publicity than N4 actually.

Doesn't matter. Both are just the same. Just don't peel off the protective film. I did that and the outer part scratch up so badly.

I'm thinking those cheap sets might be UK set. Cause right now Uk have a seller selling it for £240 only.  After converting, is about rm1300.

Anyway, may i know if anyone here have the problem with network? My bro's nexus 5 randomly go from full bar to 0 bar and can't call. It returns to normal after awhile.
*
UK set is the most expensive. Cheapest is Aussie set then HK/Japan set.

Might just be the network connection problem.

You're an awesome stand up comedian. At par with the likes of Zach Galifianakis and George Carlin. To be honest, I'm just trying to maximize the lifespan of the product I will be purchasing. Knowing most smartphones, acquire very low lifespan, before their predecessor being announced for launch.
*
To be honest, most smartphones lifespan now is considered low. Almost every year, manufacturers keep launching their new devices/flagship. I understand your concern (I do consider device lifespan before purchasing).

So I ask you: Is this device worth sticking to for <insert number of months/years>?
Considering N5 updates are directly from Google, this device will get updates for 2 years+ (probably) (eg: GNex)

Your question: Is it still worthy to get the Google Nexus 5 as my second phone?
What's your usage for second phone? Just backup? You use it with your primary phone?

There are possible few things like previous we have been discussed before, the next Nexus 6 either will be made by LenoMoto or again by LG, or will be replace by Google Play Edition.

So by that time, we will be very excited about the LenoMoto made Nexus will come with Snapdragon 805 with awesomess Touchless Control, or the LG made Nexus will come with Snapdragon 805 with awesomness upgraded of current True OIS.

When you about to buy it, then again rumor have spread around the internet, the next GPe will available on Sony <insert model here> or HTC <insert model here> or Samsung <insert model here>.

Here we go again, should I buy this or skip again? sweat.gif Is like endless looping question. sweat.gif
*
+1!

I couldn't agree more! laugh.gif
It was my dilemma with N4. Decided to wait for N5. But that urge to buy is there. So kept going back and forth sweat.gif
Now no regret cool2.gif

Since you're newbie, I suggest you read and follow instructions step-by-step on how to unlock (take note: unlock will wipe clean your phone; suggest backup your important files) and root in xda forum biggrin.gif

Remember to check md5sum after you download the .zip file to verify that you did indeed complete download.
