If you're from Europe, you will not have 4g. On the other side, everything works like a charm. I have a nexus 5 from US and i'm from Romania.
Yes ... only LTE / 4G ... Europe basebands does not included on D820

Phone is unlocked but you will need the rest of the world model versus the USA model.
Bootloader is locked we have entire threads dedicated to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2507905

I qouted you
Nearly correct. D820 is North America D821 is rest of world.
Only difference is LTE bands so should be good up to DC-HSPA

Is there any way to possibly make a rooted Nexus 5 continue to receive OTA updates from Google?
If so, please advise the best way
Thanks

So in this case I can still receive OTA updates from Google even with the bootloader unlocked and custom recovery by just leaving the stock firmware/ROM on the phone?

Hello,
Is it possible to put the t-mobile stock rom on my Nexus 5 so I can use wifi calling? I cannot find the stock rom anywhere on the internet, so it makes me think this is not possible. Is this correct? Is it a legal issue that prevents the t-mobile rom from being available?
Thank you
I'm sure there's only one type of ROM for the Nexus 5.

WiFi calling isn't available via T-mobile on the Nexus 5.

Future uncertain. Apparently nexus 6 and lollipop will get it in 2015 so it depends if there are any other dependencies we would need
I just bought this freedompop [Nexus 5] phone - is it true that the hardware is exactly the same, so you can flash any rom you want as long as you don't wanna use freedompop?

Um... depends
Is it a Nexus 5? If it is, then yes.
As title says, yes it's a nexus 5.
Is that to say the process is essentially the same as any other Nexus 5, provided I'm wanting to do away with the Freedompop software?

The default setting for your Nexus from Freedompop is under Sprint network. You can change it to GSM. It requires several reboot but not too hard. I hope the video helps.
