Been using cm 11 before with my s3 and i thought the vanilla android has the same option like the cm11. But the thing is with vanilla android, you cannot choose which setting that you can put there. It also does  not have the option to have other settings like the sound mode, nfc, wifi sharing, and screen rotation.

In the end ive got to install power toggles app to have those settings available on the notification bar but somehow youve got to retain an icon on your notification bar so that it doesnt kill off by android system.

i downloaded power toggles as well and its so far so good, customizable, no icon on top. I agree this is one good thing about touchwiz.

I think its more essential to root a Samsung or slower device to remove all those stock apps thats really slowing down the phone and tweaks to speed things up. The Nexus is already fast out of the box and is a great phone, of course if u root, play with it, its a bonus..
My Asus tablet was lagging like hell, rooted, flashed rom and much better. The process is even easier to do than a nexus.

Okay bro noted. Point taken.

I said what I said cuz my boss use this phone as stock as it gets. He loves it so much. He probably doesnt even know what root is. He always said how amazing this phone. He's from US and most US guy I know, iphone users.

Thats rare, and no root also can use happily what. He probably doesnt even know this thing is in the purest Android form.

Freezing/Remove stock apps/install Google Now launcher still wont get the clean Android. You'll still get the 3rd party system UI, those 3rd party animations, those status bars/system icons.

Battery cannot say also, different usage from different people. I got through a day with stock kernel + stock rom. I dont mind charging whenever I can too.

Camera cannot argue la, its not that good, not bad either.

Speaker, omaigad its really bad. Its loud, but bad.

To me I'd rather run a stock nexus over stock Samsung cause the s4 ,s3 and note around me simply lags. In need of custom kernel/rom and really needs to remove those bloatwares. Same goes for my Asus transformer.

about the yellow tinting --- is it permanent thingy & how to detect? Coz I suspect mine is affected but can't be sure.

Plus, there's kinda line/stripes running across the screen.

Well the n5 screen is abit yellowish, I used kernel mod to make it colder. U mean those horizontal lines on the screen if you look very closely like tv screens? I think our lcd ips display is like that.

Since I only change phone when it's necessary like in 3 years, like my last phone galaxy S, and cheap China phones r on the rise like xiaomi. Im loving one+ one and G3. I can imagine getting an oppo/o+o in the future. Oh and there will be more Google version phones as well.

I hope next android silver is in affordable range, like nexus 5 price. Rm1.2k-1.4k... If price like other flagship (rm2.2k) im gonna be sad. Need more time to save money
*
Well my nexus 5 was actually 1.7k just cause of 32gb..now if they allowed sd card, I would save rm300. Also if nexus continues with Lg, we still need to get inflated ap set.

Want to get this charger so bad. I wish the shipping was free. Not worth it paying $12 for a $2.5 product.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nex...harger-t2729066

What charger are you all using? The official one only gives output of 800mA on an average 😭

Im just worried it might shorten the battery life, using quick or more powerful chargers. Btw, anyone knows what casing is in that topic?

I don't think it has any impact on the battery life as google itself has released official 1.8A charger for the nexus 5.

Also, if I'm not mistaken, it is this bumper he's using.

thanks for the link. And the charger...the shipping itself is 3x the price of the item. try to search for a oem blackberry charger.
