Nexus 5 and sticky notes - Nexus 5 General

Hey all, just a neat little thing I noticed yesterday: sticky notes (the paper kind) don't stick to the screen of the Nexus 5. I used to sometimes put notes on my phone when I had to remember something later and I tried to do it with my new Nexus 5 and it just fell right off. Cool!

I use Google Keep. It syncs from your PC to the phone and vice-versa.

Why are you using "analogic" sticky notes on XXI century?

Just tried. It stuck, but not very well. Probably has something to do with the oleophobic coating, which will likely rub off at some point.

Nothing wrong with using sticky notes. I have a ton of notes on my iPhone before I switched and always forgot about them.

Just tested, they stick on mine just fine. I suspect it to be a hardware issue, you might want to RMA.

but we are not talking about virtual sticky notes we are talking about physical, I doubt you had a bunch of sticky notes actually on your iPhone.

A visual icon displayed on screen should work well also. No glue to deal with either. I can't imagine many physical sticky notes fitting on an iphone.

He can use a number pad to text message and stretch out the antenna whenever he gets a phone call while he's at it too.
Some people would be better off served with dumb phones. No point making threads about it however.

The thread was more of telling us sticky notes don't really stick on the phone.
I don't know how you can say some people are better off served with a "dumb phone", since I haven't seen a "dumb" phone since I think the end of 2008. Maybe you can say "some people don't take advantage of all the features a smart phone comes with", then I'd agree.

Wow

Well I have to say, the Nexus 4 forum is a great example of 98% of people only posting on the internet when they are unhappy!
Never seen so many complaints about a phone before.
It's simply because the people that doesn't have problem are enjoy their phone
Also, is pointless to open new topic for just saying that the phone is amazing

You obviously haven't been on an iPhone forum
I must say it's quite horrific when you're looking to buy the phone and you see a thread entitled yellow tint and a thread saying nexus came with scratches and another one that says don't leave your nexus on any surface lol! I've never seen so many issues with a device. Really putting me off wanting to buy it now.

I started a thread saying people should wait 2 weeks to order to see if the early adopting test dummies have problems. People went off at me like I was crazy
Look at the test dummies now
It happens all the time, no company excluded. The firsts batches are always flawed, beacause of this never buy anthing on the day 1.
It seems like there are not serious problems yet,
-rattling: not a real issue most people probably wouldn't even recognize if others weren't pointing it out.
-yellow spot on screen: Doesn't seem like a common problem, only 2 or 3 people here seem to have this problem until now
You usually post with issues. About 95% have nothing to say!

- Battery life is terrible
Its a basic principle of statistic. Put a survey box in a restaurant, only angry people will fill it. When you say something is perfect, it asks for this answer : OK.
OK. Does not help progression, advancement or amelioration.
Besides, we are in the self-entitlement era.
Issues which will keep me away from buying at the hissing from the speaker and the yellow tint (which i havent seem many posts on).
Glad I didn't get one on launch day
And you guys the people posting here are not people with 1 posts. They are members who have been around for a long time who were exciting to buy the phone and are reporting the issues with it.

Nothing will be without defects
But usually the first batch is made hastly, because they need to creato more stocks for the first day (even though weren't enought ) and have less quality controls
Plus, as many times is been said, rattling is not an issue, is part of the autofocus in the camera and you can hear it in every moderns smartphone, including iPhone 5, 4s, hox and s3

I've had my Nexus 4 since Thursday morning, everything is spot on. No weird yellow tint, no issues what so ever actually. Battery life is acceptable enough for me, it pulls a day with heavy use, beyond that I don't give a toss.
Other than that it runs everyone like a boss, silky smooth and everyone that's had a play with it so far has tried to jizz on it.

It's actually refreshing for a change to hear something positive about the phone from a user!

Review from a former LL3 (Received Yesterday)

So I got my phone yesterday evening at 7pm from the UPS driver and of course it was the latest I had ever received a package!
Anyways, all I have to say is that getting a phone from the "second wave" seems to have been a great thing because I have had ZERO issues at all so far. Right away I looked over the entire phone for any cosmetic defects that have been reported and nothing was found wrong. The screen IMO is amazing and colors look perfect as well. There is NO yellow tint whatsoever and I even had my GF look at it to make sure. Battery is already better than my former Blaze 4G and that's saying something. This phone is definitely a fresh start from the touchwiz ui and made me realize that was really kiddish looking like IOS IMO. The camera takes pictures just fine although I am still trying to figure out all the features on it. The phone got pretty warm on initial start up when all of my apps were being installed from the Play store but after that, normal browsing and such did not make it any warmer than anything i have felt before in other phones. Finally, there is NO buzzing in my earpiece at all, and yes my hearing is good, this again I had my GF check too so I knew I was not crazy.
So honestly, I think that maybe the second wave was produced better or something I really don't know, but I encourage anyone to get this phone if they have been debating because of other peoples "issues". Thanks
That's great to hear. I also ordered a N4 from the second batch and I can't wait for it to be here. Nice review
Mine does rattle. Got it yesterday. But I could care less about that. Loving the phone so far. Just want to be able to order a bumper and get my best skins ever in so I don't worry so much about using it.

Grats on getting your phone; you're gonna love it.
I got mine a week after the initial ordering and my phone is perfect, so I don't know about any second waves or anything like that. There are always going to be phones with manufacturing-related defects; that's why they do exchanges. Don't get hung up on a few people who think their phones are s**t.

I got my 2 Nexus 4's yesterday. The one seems fine, but I have an issue with the 2nd one. During calls, the earpiece buzzes while making sounds. The earpiece does not make any sounds when it is off like a lot of people seem to report. This is strictly a problem during calls and it sounds like the speaker is blown. It does rattle a bit when I'm putting it on a table or whatnot, but that doesn't really bother me.
Called support yesterday, and they were supposed to send me an e-mail with instructions on sending this one back and getting a replacement, but haven't actually received anything from them.
I seem to have some kind of knack for getting bad phones from Google. I had ordered 2 Galaxy Nexus phones when they came out, and ended up getting a replacement for one of the phones because there was dust in the camera. The replacement had the wifi go out, so I had to get that one replaced. The third one actually had a similar buzzing issue with the earpiece but it wasn't as bad, and I was tired of dealing with them at that point, so I lived with it.

I get what you are saying, but he is still literally correct.
I'm sure he could care less, otherwise he wouldn't have an N4. If he cared less:
- he could have not bought the phone
- he could leave it at a bus stop and go on living
- etc. etc.
Now, I'm sure he could care a hell of a lot MORE about it, taking to the internet in fits of rage, driving to Mountain View and knocking on the front door and such. But still, he could also care less.
Just saying.
Received mine yesterday and it has zero flaw. I don't take the mini rattle as one as it comes from the camera (autofocus?) and all the phones I tested since learning that on this forum have it.
For those of you wondering if the bumper is worth 20 euros, it's definitely well made, perfectly fits the look of the phone and prevents the back from direct contact but... well, the phone has a perfect size for my hand and the bumper adds about 0.5 - 0.7 cm in width which makes it awkward to hold. I find myself removing it often when using my phone.
My 2 cents.

Does your phone have touch sensitive issue?
Most people that received the initial batch also had zero issues. It's basically just a couple squeaky wheels that make things seem worse than they actually are.

Edit: you would never believe it from the way it looks but I would say majority of the people who ordered on the 13th got the phone within the 3-5 business day quote. Just as an example.

I don't have any issues whatsoever from the 1st batch. The more you try to look for something to be wrong the higher the chance that something unnoticeable will begin to irritate you lol.
Zero issues with the first batch. But if these phones get better with each batch, imagine the 50th batch!

[OFF TOPIC LOUNGE] The Four Galaxies

Here is a place where you can talk about things that aren't specifically about the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4. The rules of etiquette for the xda forums still apply here. People coming from the Samsung Epic 4G Touch section have seen this before. I asked permission from a moderator first and was allowed to start this thread. Thanks Kenny.
A small example to get you started. It doesn't have to be a tip. It can be something that you wondered about our found out but isn't specifically about our phone. You can talk about other things too as long as it doesn't go against the forum's rules.
I have a Sony MW600 Bluetooth adapter. It's like a USB stick but it's a Bluetooth device you can plug headphones into and the device can basically control the phone. I use it with a stereo patch cable going into my car radio's input jack on the front of it. I use it for music and podcasts while driving. I will sometimes keep the phone locked away and charging while playing music. Sometimes I need the phone when I get out of the car. Everyone knows that if you walk away from something Bluetooth, if you get far enough, it will disconnect. When you go back to the car, it won't automatically reconnect. I had the phone in my pocket when I went back to the car. I don't know what made me not do my normal process of reconnecting the Bluetooth device when I got back to the car. I pushed the play button on the BT device, I previously paused the music with the same device, just to see what would happen. The BT beeped unusually, showed a different graphic on the screen, then paired with the handset and started playing music. Some probably know this already but I stumbled across it purely by accident. Now I don't have to go through the BT menu on the phone and reconnect to the dongle every time I get out if the car and return. I don't know how this would work with other devices. Just thought I'd throw this out there.
Anyone ever notice that when you view a picture with a gallery program like quickpic, that sometimes there will be a split second of a different picture before displaying the one you actually took? With me, it was a picture of the floor before the picture of what I actually captured. If you look in a folder view with thumbnails, the floor picture isn't there.
Good thread. While I have nothing to add about QuickPic, I think this thread will be good for those asking "What ROM are you running" and those kind of questions.
I've also been meaning to start a "Facepalm" thread ala E4GT forum, lol!
Can some one tell me definitively that the S4 can record audio while playing audio at the same time? I may need to start a separate thread for this. I know the iPhone can but can any androids?
As far as bluetooth issues goes... I believe my BT Motorola stereo headset reconnects automatically.

I haven't had the need to, but I haven't ran across an app that could do what you're speaking of. I did research it when trying to record sounds from apps that had some form of drm when playing back local music. There were computer work arounds but nothing on the phone level yet. I was told that the existing android framework couldn't do that.

I don't know if this behavior can be replicated in the stock gallery. Problem is, ever since I found out about quickpic years ago, I stopped using gallery. I forget when it was but when the gallery started having special effects like the tilting of the thumbnails, that was the last straw. I tried removing the gallery a while back but then found out that it is used, in some form, when attaching pictures to texts.
I have a question I have had this device for about a month and the battery cover is scratched all to hell. I have not been rough with it or anything I don't slid it around on the back so I don't understand has anyone else noticed scratches on there battery cover

I was just going to pay something similar. No, my battery cover isn't scratched but has anyone ran across a place, preferably on amazon, that sells samsung OEM battery covers? I'd like to get a couple of black ones. I'd search for it but I'm at work now.
Here is a couple. Black http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00CXN0HIW/ref=mp_s_a_1_11?qid=1371167671&sr=8-11&pi=SL75

They aren't specifically for the Sprint model but I would think they would be the same.
I have a small crack on my battery cover. It's bizarre. It looks like shattered glass. I'm not sure if I want OEM or custom/metal.

I've heard that, too. I'm not sure what caused my cover to crack, either. Mine happened on the lower right of the cover. I tried to take picks of it, but it's too faint, even with zoom. I know it's there & it bothers me enough to want it replaced. I'll probably buy both versions & see what works best.
If you do get a aluminum cover let us know how it works out. I'm curious to hear more on the signal issues.
Sent from my SGS4. Go Blue!! Buck the Fuc keyes!!
If it were me, I'd probably just get another stock battery cover off amazon and get a case that has impact protection on the inside. I forget the name of it but I got a candyshell case with the grips on it. Maybe the cover was defective from the factory? They sell stock OEM non branded battery covers on amazon. I am going to eventually get a couple because I know the snaps wear out through time when you swap batteries.

You have wrong priorities op! I lived with a tn-powered xperia arc s for 2 years. N5 is like heaven for me. Why did you buy a N5 if you have a one? If you are pleased with your one keep it and don´t buy anything new.
Colours are inverted on my xperia arc s where the n5 only gets a bit darker.

My nexus 5 will very probably be returned. Hate the loudspeaker, and I think I have been spoilt by the Note 2 battery. But that screen doesn't look right. Under no circumstances can I get it to look anywhere near that bad, and I have tried. The screen is one of the few things I will miss about the phone.

There have been numerous pictures posted by other users at different angles, I myself even posted a video. Not one other phone looks like the OP's but he didn't care to mention that.
Thanks for letting us know.

YAND - Yet Another Nexus Dock

Hey - I wanted to show off my latest 3D printed dock, this time for the nexus 10.
I borrowed the design ideas from what I saw posed on here and tried to build off of it.
I think the one unique thing about it is that it is made of glazed ceramic instead of that usual plastic. It is very study and has some nice heft, while keeping 3D printing costs down.
I designed it to be able to keep the nexus docked while in my folio case, since I will snatch it off the stand before heading out the door. However, this will dock with or without the case. (FYI this is my case: http://www.roocase.com/Slim-Fit-Veg...--Black-rooCASE/cat-p/c1000036/p10518806.html)
It is designed for the standard POGO magnetic cable.
I just wanted to get thoughts on this if anyone would be interested in one or what questions you might have about it.
I finally got together my shapeways site where you can order the dock if you're interested.
Let me know what you think, or feel free to post in the thread, thanks!

Thanks again to everyone in this forum for the great ideas!
I guess no one, huh?
I am a little late to the dock party...
Your idea is very good but, in general, nexus10 forum is quite dead.

Agree. Unfortunate really...and surprising. I've had 3 of these in my family and none had any issues whatsoever. They are all in use and still running pretty darn good! I've compared to newer tablets but this really is still a great tablet. Not sure why this forum is so dead.

That's probably the reason, no issues = no reason to search for a forum to find fixes.
Very nice dock.
Would you share your 3D-files? STEP, STL?

Amen to this! There are two reasons for a dead forum on XDA: long abandoned device, or no issues to complain about/develop solutions to!
Sell me one?

Hey! Sorry for the delay, I've been pretty busy with work.
I finally got around to setting up the storefront through Shapeways, and have a link to the stand you can buy directly from there:

I only selected options for the ceramic material, since plastics would have sent the price over $100.
Let me know what you guys think and if anyone really wants to be a baller and get it made in plastic, I'll add in those options, so just let me know.
I have a just one other tip: I sanded the plastic housing of the POGO cable down just a bit with some sand paper and put a piece of electrical tape on it so when I wedge it in, it stays put on docking and undocking.
Let me know if you guys have any other questions.
thanks!
