Maybe sooner or later, i prefer minimalist style, but i think i will get bored of the interface soon. Nexus 5 benchmark test results shows some really good result even thou at a lower price than flagship phone.
Not much sense in benchmark now. Samsung/HTC/Sony/whatever had tweaks for their phone to perform higher in benchmark, no point compare Nexus 5's benchmark point to cheating results. In terms of user experience, should be safe to say no phone can match Nexus 5's smoothness.
Guys, is it considered a defect/weak vibrator motor if I can't feel the Nexus 5 vibrating when set to vibrate mode in my pocket? When hold on hand can feel the vibration but it's very weak. When place on table the phone will not move an inch when it vibrates but there is a very soft sound of vibration of course. I searched and I don't think I have the loose vibrator motor problem but it definitely is damn weak compared to other phones.
Not sure your definition of vibration strength. As far as I can recall, phone able to vibrate an inch is back in Nokia 3310 generation. You could try increase strength of vibration from apps/kernel. I only know Faux123 kernel enhancement had it, tweaked to 80% and I'm so scared my vibrator will rosak already.
EDIT : Tested my phone, I could hear quite loud of vibration sound, but inside isolated meeting room. But to be honest, smartphone's vibrator quite weak that you tend to miss notification time to time.

I meant on stock ROM. Not flashing it first cause scared need to warranty. When yours still on stock the vibration how?
Same, though I'm using custom ROM, but didnt tweak the vibrator as I rarely miss notification. Either it's on office/computer desk, or I had headset connect. Another alternative is to alter your notification. You can customize notification to have longer, repeating vibrate. LightFlow Lite
Hmm it's not really the length/longer/repeating vibration is the problem here. The problem is the vibration itself is weak. When I test the vibration constantly vibrating without pause and place it in my pocket I cant feel anything even with jeans. If you place your device on the table and let it vibrate on stock ROM settings can you hear the phone vibrate from say 2-3 meters away?
Not sure trolling or what. 2-3 meters away ? Unless in isolated quiet room. Guess you should compare to other modern smartphone to decide whether it's strong or weak.
Facing a rather complicated situation here. My Nexus 5 was unable to detect the wifi at home but it was detecting wifi from other houses. But all the rest of my other pc and gadgets have no issue detecting the wifi.
Any idea what might be the problem guys?
Are your router using 5GHz channel ? I had same issue when I first boot up my N5, then I figure out it's compatibility/bug issue, so configure my router and working until now. Try access your router configuration, change it from Auto to 2.4GHz, switch from 40Mhz band to 20Mhz might help also. Another configuration you need to check if switching to 2.4GHz not working, is changing channel. Try switch different channel and test.
hi, i want to ask,my n5 suddenly have flickering screen, its like u dnt hav good signal on tv. does someone have this issue? it happen after i watch u tube for 2 hours, and after charge it with utoo power bank.i bought at one gadget with 2 years warranty, but the warranty not cover the screen (just for 3 month).
Most likely screen overheat. After 2 hours of youtube ( heat ) and charge ( more heat ). Let it cool down and observe.
