Hi!
Sorry for the noob question, just got my nexus 5 today and I've never owned one before.
How can I transfer files to the internal storage through USB?
Thanks for the help!
Plug the phone into your computer via usb. Pull down the notification bar and set to MTP then look for the device in "my computer".
Drag your files over

I've already tried but didn't work even with the USB driver installed.
The phone doesn't show in "my computer" while in MTP, it shows only in PTP but I can't transfer anything.
Thanks!
PTP only transfers photos.
Try uninstalling the drivers then reboot the pc. Then also reboot the nexus and try to connect again.

There are also apps such as airdroid which is amazing.

Tried but doesn't work either. However I've been able to transfer files from another PC, so I guess the problem comes from mine.
Any idea?
Thanks.

Do you have the correct drivers? Also try different usb port. Use the ones in the back of your pc

It allows you to transfer over wifi or data no cord needed. And it's through a website on the computer mac or pc and can even use the phones camera over the client. Etc. Try it it's so much better than a cord and just as fast

I did search but I couldn't find anything, sorry if it causes any offence.
I am having trouble updating to 4.4.2 for some reason. The bootloader is unnlocked and the device is rooted withTWRP recovery installed.
How would I go about updating whilst preserving all data etc?
Many thanks
You can flash an ota update, or fastboot flash the factory boot and system images.
If you factory flash, you will probably have to format /data to avoid issues.

If you want to remove it delete manually from /system/app with a root file explorer.

You'll have to freeze all of the other keyboards. There are a couple of weirdly-named keyboards, so look through the list of apps carefully.

Hello,
While using the "Disk Usage" app I am finding that I have almost 6gb of "system data" being used on my rooted 16gb N5. That seems outrageous.
Any idea what is taking up so much data on my phone? Image attached.
Thank you for the help.

When going to the Dead Trigger 2 page in the Play Store I get the message that my device isn't compatible. I am running the new ProBAM ROM and I had the LCD density set to 420 so I changed it back to the default stock density which I believe is 480 and I still get the same message saying that the device isn't compatible.
Has anyone else had this problem? If so, would you please be so kind in telling me how to get the the Play Store to recognize my device as compatible for the Dead Trigger 2 game? Thank you!

Pardon my ignorance, but why can't he mention the ProBAM ROM? I'm not even sure what a ProBAM Rom is, this is my first nexus device. But the ROM he's talking about even has it's own thread here on XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2615590 Why is it not ok to mention it but it's ok for it to have a thread here?

I have no idea or info on why its supposed to be banned, but it was just created on the 18th so maybe it just that the moderators haven't noticed yet? Like I said I have no understanding on the situation or anything, I was just curious why he wasn't allowed to mention a ROM thats available for download here on XDA.

Igio made jelly bam and stole the work of others. Probam is made by codecx and he claims it is made from source. He does have links on github, maybe its legit. Time will tell.
