last time ask him go for N5...he said dont want..want S5 have many features...now he know why N5>S5 whistling.gif

samsung always just non-stop keep adding more features and much more features until occupied a lot of storage. and when that 'extra' features is not useful, is called bloatware. why don't samsung put more time or effort on optimizing the speed and smoothness... adding powerful hardware only are not enough.

i have been usine N5 for one month and the only thing i do not satisfied is the charging indicator light.
There is not indicator light while my phone in charging.
*
just go for any charging led app from store or some of custom rom also build in this feature.
I'm using app, I utilize our multi-color led when charging, start from low battery level: red, orange, yellow, white, blue and green+tone when 100% fully charged. so I'm aware of it and turn off the charger power.

I, like many others, like to read tech blogs and news. I know that the nexus line has many flaws but the ammount of nexus users praise the phone has somehow made me into buying this.

I agree that it is a solid device. At first i thought i can live without touchwhiz features. I thought soft keys is better than normal hardware keys. In the end it depends on you. I might be able to use the phone for a long period of time but i will always look out a way to get rid of it.

The nexus 5 is a solid device. Smooth and fast without lag. If google can add somemore feutures, it will become awesome.

I can see that it might not be too long before i go woth the custom roms.

what features you looking or hope google to add?

I did list some of the features that i like to be in the next nexus line. But if you ask me about next google update for this phone (guess you cannot change the hardware):

- i would like a separate sync for calendar and email for the email apps. You can do that with the samsung email app. Guess the blackberry can do that too.
- change vibration intensity
- ability to hide soft keys or other means of of hiding it such as another option to use swipe at the edge of the screen to access home button instead of to swipe at the edge to bring up the soft keys
- option to choose different apps for the locker just like the current setting to change to different launcher. Option to have no soft keys for the lock screen.
- better camera app
- choose more power toggle to be added in the notification bar. Please add screen rotation, sound mode, and wifi hot spot toggle.
- notificationn led settings. Add charging led please.
- smart stay
- Many other people can add such as the shake to change music song.

Notice that these are very small things that i think google can add in no time but probably not all people need. But its a very small and i guess it should be there without the need of a request.

Google ultimate goal is to boost the eco-system and promote own services, any changes against the objective will not happen. As for Nexus, Google always keep it minimal or as simple as it, and everybody believe, enthusiasts can add on themselves, ton of developers are support on that, with source support of Google.

all your wishlist are softmod simple doable yourself right now or anytime. except as for camera, google already aware our feedback and update on next.

if you're not prefer do all your wishlist above but want google spoon-fed, then you bought the wrong phone.

First of all, as much as I respect the developers, I am still not going to use a custom rom as my daily driver. I used my phone to do bank transactions a lot. Some of the apps require a phone that is not rooted. iianm, you cannot use google wallet with custom rom. Furthermore, I dont like to know that there are people who temper with my phone through kernals or roms. I know they are good people but I trust google more than the devs although that devs might be one of the google workers.

Secondly, yes, you can get some of the features from apps that are available in the app store. But some of them take a large amount of ram. I do not like the feeling that I have two apps for calendar (google calendar preinstalled and another calendar app that can satisfy my need). After all, the things that I required are very small but I prefer to have them if I have the option.

In addition, one of the reason why you choose this phone is to minimize the bloatware and if i cannot use the preinstalled email app, the app is a bloatware.

Dont get me wrong, the current available apps are really great and smooth and fast.

Now some people might have different choice and need and the above are just my opinions and wishlist. I also realized that this phone is really cheap compared to other high end phone.

Just like some of you have said, this is the wrong phone for me, and I think it probably is. But if google can just add these small things, I would be really happy.

ok, now everyone understand your needs. not only you, everyone also have many requirements but there is no perfect phone that able to meet every single of user requirements. most important thing needed come first, the rest just listed optional. so give and take...

for your case, if security is your first concern, why you bought nexus at the first place? which device have most secure feature offer now?

There's no such thing as a "perfect" phone. Comparing one to another will never end, just like comparing between Merc & BMW or Toyota & Honda or Ferrari & Lamborgini. At the end of the day u buy a phone that suits to your overall needs.

My first android phone was a Gnex & now on N5, I'm aware of its shortcomings (battery life, camera, speaker, no Micro SD card etc) before buying BUT it doesn't bother me as I'm a light user which battery life can last me for one full day, I don't take photo that much & I don't listen to music with my phone (my other gadjets will do the job for me), now still got 10GB of space on my white 16GB N5 .

At the price of RM1100 what more could I ask, after slapping it with Nillkin glass SP and Spigen casing walla .... whenever with friends most of them will ask "...phone ape ko pakai ni bro?, lain macam la pulak" my answer "rare tak?". This is just my personal reason for using N5 without going too deep with other criteria such as customization bla bala....

I guess once a Nexus always a Nexus.... cheriooo guys...

me too, from Gnex to N5. will never ever look for other phone, only Nexus. I like fast update and huge active community support.

Did you try factory format ? I didnt notice any battery life difference with and without Xposed.

same thought here, I had no issue with the modules using. xposed framework itself won't impact on battery life, certain module issue? hmm.gif

yes, all imported. no different. I guess those without "IMPORT" set are source from directd, so is AP warranty.
