happy new year to y'all from me too
All the best from me,... happy new year,..
Since there will be a lot of new faces in the N5 section, and of course a lot of love and hate affairs will be taking place in the next year I find that when we put a face to a name there seems to be more friendly communication. I have done this in another device section on XDA and it turned out to be really successful and extremely fun as well.
If you guys are interested and the admin are okay with it then let's get it started and start posting up some pics of yourself, family etc.
If everyone prefers to be incognito here then we can just close this thread.....
I am 37, married with one kid and live in the US, North Carolina. Grew up in NY though.
My smart phone journey started years back with a Windows Pocket PC phone PPC-6600 if anyone remembers that. Started out at Sprintusers.com and then moved to PPCGEEKS.com for all my needs. I used to be scared of XDA. It was the place where the big boys hung out. Man, it was intimidating. Then I slowly built up the courage to check out XDA for myself and slowly worked my way in here.
Now we have so many different levels of users and while some might think that is a bad thing I think it's great. We all have to start somewhere and seeing people transition from noobs with not a clue to the ones helping others and some guys even taking on development themselves, it is a great community we have here!
Well you can see me in my avatar. I'm a mom of 3, love technology and looking forward to coming home after work on Tuesday to my brand new Nexus 5 to replace my S2.

Yo! This is a really good idea-- have never seen it before.
Anyway-- 20 year-old, in college, studying CS. Can't wait to get my Nexus tomorrow. Previously owned, HD2, One, i9300, Nexus 4 among others.
Will post a pic when I use my desktop-- none in my lappy.
Cheers dude!
Edit: Strong selfie in Frankfurt last summer
why not. 19, on my gap year at the moment - probably will go on to study physics as a degree. learning c# and java at the moment so i may go into android development as a hobby.

Hey guys! Here's a photo of me and my boy, and my grandpa photo bombing us like a boss.
Taken this summer on my son's first trip to Disney World. We were waiting in line for the Toy Story ride.

Nice, was that the one in Florida? Were taking our son there for the first time in December.
hell yeah, why not? That's me, the pic was taken at ocean front in Barcelona, but I live in Switzerland.
I'm looking forward to my first Nexus (after a Galaxy Note 2), to quicker access to the latest Android goodies, and to not have to remove unnecessary bloatware.
You can see me from my avatar and came from a Xperia Z1 and loving this phone so far.

Yeah that was in Florida. December is a great time to go! The weather is awesome there during that time of the year, plus all the parks get a Christmas makeover.
I don't know how old your boy is, but mines two and there was plenty of stuff for him to do. He had a blast, he still talks about it to this day.
You guys are going to have a good time!

He was 3 in August so hopefully he will enjoy himself. He loves all the Disney characters.
Hi not much of a selfie taker but here I am!!
I'm 35, mum of 2 in the UK. Got the N5 on Friday and love it so far. Will be interesting to see the feedback when the Play orders start getting delivered.

Once you go Nexus, you never go back.
The great thing about owning a Nexus you won't care about what the other guys are doing you will just care about the next Nexus.

It's hard for a kid to not enjoy Disney World. As a parent, I got a lot of joy out of seeing my boy's reaction and excitement to everything.

Coming from am N4 I am mostly looking forward to the 5" 1080p screen. A 4.7" screen is nice if there weren't soft keys on the screen so a 5" should be just the right amount of real estate with the soft keys.
I know you can remove them and use other options but I like my keys usable without any other actions.
wow and i assumed almost every xda user is some teenage kid hyped up on androids
just shows how much one shouldn't stereotype.

Yeah, the reason I wanted to have this thread here is for everyone to see the wide range of people there are on XDA from teenage kids to parents to grandparents.
It will also help when communicating in the other threads as you might think twice on how you react to people when they ask certain things. They are not just a punk teen hiding behind a nickname...They are an old guy, acting like a punk teen hiding behind a nickname. Lol

Good stuff bro. It is easy to get sucked into that life. Glad to hear things are good now. It's much harder to get out then to get in. Stay strong! Cool Android tat. Amazing how phones bring so many different types of people together.

Where from do you know me already?
(just kidding)
(hopefully)
New to Android tweaks, but not new to computing. I live on 5 acres in southern Idaho, have way too many cars and want to expand my horizons.
Just bought a Samsung A53 and am enjoying the upgrade from a Samsung S7. Yeah, I used it for 7 years. I guess in phone land that's a really long time, but it worked great for me, so I stuck with it. Now I don't know what to do with it's dead carcass.
Anyway, happy to be here and am looking forward to learning something new.
Thank you everyone,
Michael

A long time? You were still carving things in stone! Haha. Welcome to the XDA family!
Thanks for the welcome. At my age, I really was carving things in stone...
I have been a member of the XDA forum in the dim distant past, but have not been on for many years.
I have now been retired for over 10 years and last year moved from Bristol to Swansea and enjoying the local beauty spots, and at the tender age of 75 I spend my time fixing up an old boat and enjoying walks with our rescue dog.
My interest now in this forum is to try and solve a problem with an Android Headset in my car, and I am hoping someone might have some ideas on sorting it out.
Thanks for your interest,
John
