My auto brightness is much brighter than nexus 4 and my friend lg g2. Any one else like this? Nothing wrong with this actually just thinking maybe battery could be better then setting it manually.

I think there is a general consensus that it is generally brighter. Coming from the S4 I can say without a doubt the auto brightness is brighter on the Nexus 5. You can either do it manually or use an app like "Lux" to control it.
I haven't seen anything else posted, but I wanted to see is anyone is having the same issue as I am.
Basically, I'm getting what I think are row's of pixels flickering in the area of the screen that are gray.
Here is a quick vid trying to capture it. I can't post videos because I have less than 10 post, you are going to have to trust me for now...
I've also used the dead pixel finder app...everything looks good until I change over to a gray screen, if I stare at it, I can see the flicker...
I first noticed it when I flash Franco r10 (which is what I was on in the video). When I flash back to stock kernel or Bricked, it's much better. But now that I know it is there, I can still see it.
Anyone else having this issue? is there a fix or should I just send it back?
If it matters... LG-D820 White, 32gb
I'm guessing I'm alone with this issue and that it is a hardware problem. :thumbdown:

I haven't noticed anything on mine, but I haven't flashed anything yet. Did you notice the flicker before you flashed the first time?
No I didn't notice anything until I flashed r10. But now that I'm looking for it, I can see it on stock and bricked ever so slightly.
I could live with it on the stock colors, but if this is hardware, I worry that it is going to get worse and not better over time.

I have the same issue and saw it as soon as I flashed franco kernel. Noticed that if you set brightness to 100% it will slowly stabilize but will still come back when lowing brightness. I called for an RMA, but cannot reproduce it as obviously on stock, so i'm also lost as to what it could be.
What did you end up doing?
On mine, I could see it on Stock colors, just not as bad... I returned mine on rma....
I recommend getting the app called display tester.
I don't have enough post for a proper link.
https:// play.google.com /store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev. displaytester
Look for a bad pixel and go under the banding section for reason for rma.
My new phone didn't have any of the flicker /banding that my old phone did.
Good luck..

Sorry to bring back an old thread but I just noticed this not too long ago and didn't want to open a new thread. I noticed it while I was on stock first and thought flashing something might fix it. I've had mine since the beginning of November. Is the best option just to RMA it?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
can you use a SlimPort cable or chromecast to mirror the screen to a TV and see if the flicker still happens?
So you'll know if the problem is in GPU or screen?!
Hey guys I just switched from note 3 to nexus 5. Just want to know if this battery usage is normal? It seems like its dying fast.

You have to provide a little bit more information. Like time on, other usage.
I thought I uploaded the other photo.

I would say yes, who knows what your screen brightness was at even though I am sure it was probably at auto. Talking on the phone can drain a lot of battery.
Why note 3 to nexus 5, seems odd?
Well you did talk on the phone for a while. But Google Search is draining the battery more than it should. I would just reboot and do another full charge. Google Search was draining my Nexus 7 the other day and the reboot/recharge seemed to have fixed it. For now anyway. Android OS/Google Search seems to be a recurring bug. Unless of course you were using google now a lot, in which case it would probably be normal.

I really don't understand why BetterBatteryStats log isn't a standard response. Give us a log, and we will tell you what's wrong. Instead of guessing.

Then we can't get our post count up?
I did not hear of the app until you made that post; the man is probably still stock/non rooted/ just getting used to it.
Look under advanced settings under wifi and see if always scanning is on. If so, turn it off.
Why the heck would you go from a note 3 to a Nexus 5?

I had the note 3 I just wasn't a big fan of the build quality and the Samsung over lay of it. I always loved the nexus 4 and when I used the neuxs 5 in person I fell in love with the design and how smooth it was. But the battery is starting to worry me. I'm on cataclysm rom with Franco kernel r22. I have WiFi on with the phone using 3g only. I barely use Google search. The phone calls werent that long either. I just feel like the battery is being drained way to fast for no reason. I keep most apps closed after I'm done using then. I had greenify on and I have the kernel set to 1.7ghz. I just don't know what to do with anymore.

I have a note 3 as well and looking to buy a nexus to play with. The only two things keeping me om the fence is lack of an sd card slot, and the battery life issues we speak of here.
Do you find the nexus 5 to have better build quality vs the note 3?

How can I get a proper battery diagnoses. Better battery stats says it cannot connect with the battery.

Here are some screenshots I took.
I've been using my Galaxy Nexus for the last two years. I have never really noticed any kind of "touch lag" during this time.
I just purchased a Nexus 5, rooted, installed TWRP 2.6.3.4 and also flashed the Dec.12 2013 version of Cataclysm
I recently noticed after about 2 days of use that:
Typing in general is normal, the keyboard reacts to my touch instantaneously
Games, or any other usage of the touchscreen seems to have about a 200ms touch lag. Whereas the Galaxy Nexus never had this issue.
Asphalt 8 is not playable due to this, the calculator app lags like crazy, or even just hitting the menu button.
Note: I noticed asphalt 8 was not playable before I did any rooting or flashing - however at that time I couldn't figure out the reason.
Is anyone else having this issue? Is there anything I can do to fix this?
I found that increasing the pointer speed may have helped a little. I disabled the vibration and sound on touch as well, that may have helped, but it still feels slow in calculator...
edit: Ok maybe I'm exaggerating a bit. It may not be 200ms but more like more like 70ms

I'm just guessing roundabout, really. It's not like I timed it or anything.
I thought it was frustrating because I couldn't play even play CopyCat (the game where you copy the colors it beeps) without holding each color for a half second before continuing to the next due to the lag.
I found that increasing the pointer speed may have helped a little. I disabled the vibration and sound on touch as well, that may have helped, but it still feels slow in calculator...
do you have any tips for improving it?
edit: I guess the reason I'm complaining is because the lag is near zero when typing on the keyboard. How is it that there is no lag when using the keyboard, but then the lag is present elsewhere?

Ok, so I went ahead and did a nandroid restore. I'm still getting the same thing.
Comparing the older Galaxy Nexus and the Nexus 5 on the same Copycat app, just a quick tap on each color using the Galaxy Nexus is enough to see a color illuminate and make the sound. On the Nexus 5, a quick tap renders no illumination or sound, though the game does see it as being pressed.
Yet on both devices, the keyboard response seems to be equal.

In this video I displayed the similar text input reaction speeds, and the very different calculator input reaction speeds

I wonder if this has something to do with the triple tap zoom gesture...?
edit: Solved. The problem was "Magnification Gestures"
The system was trying to wait for a triple tap each time I touched the screen? Not really sure how that all works but... everything is working fine now.
Settings>Accessibility>Magnification gestures>Off
fixed it all.
Whew. I was so worried! Thanks for keeping up with me Mark
Does anyone know if, and how we could Disable IOS on Nexus 5, i.e. fix the lens? When the camera is on the Dash I get very shaky vibrating Recordings. When mounted on the windscreen it is slightly better but is still inacceptable for me.
I hav another older phone without ois and that does it very well ......
