Hello,
I do have my Nexus 5 for about 2 weeks now. I did root it right away.
I tried many ROMs and kernels. But with every combination I get the same problem:
Extremly annoying audio output glitches and errors. Mostly when watching videos on Youtube or listening to Spotify. Doesn't matter if I use headphones or the speaker.
It's hard to describe this error. If needed I can try to catch it on a Video.
Now the odd part:
I've got the exactly same problem on my Galaxy Nexus. When I got my N5 I used Google's restore function to get my Apps back.
What I tried:
Multiple ROMs -> LiquidSmooth, Mahdi, Slim, ...
Multiple Kernels
Different GApps
Viper4Android
Nothing of it did work.
Because I did have the exactly same Problem on my GNexus I do have the assumption that maybe an App is responsible. Although I don't have any exotic apps installed.
Any hints how I can get rid of this problem? Or does anyone know what causes it?
Thank you,
Cliff
Edit: Here is a video where you can hear the problem:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqmGOIQ9sqs
Edit2: I just wiped my phone and clean flashed LiquidSmooth with PA GApps.
I restored only two apps with Titanium, and the problem was still there.
Edit3: Now I tried a rooted Stock ROM. Everything is working...
I really don't know what to do anymore. It isn't an App, it isn't the hardware and it looks like I am the only one who does have this problem on any ROM?!
Please help me.
What I suggest:
backup with helium
flash factory image
don't install anything
test
if it still persist it is a hardware defect and out of your hands, in that case, contact google and reflash everything to stock/ reset tamper flag. http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701
I just edited my post while you answered, and I did exactly what you suggested. See Edit3.
The problem is gone with a Stock ROM. But with every Custom ROM I tried, I do have this problem, and nobody else does...
I just flashed a CM Based ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-c-rom-4-4-2-v5-6-t2694339)
Haven't tested that before. It looks like everything is working fine. Audio without any errors...
Today I flashed some ROMs for further testing.
Stock, CM and CM based ROMs are working flawlessly.
Every AOSP ROM has the same audio problem.
Any ideas how I can fix this? I want to be able to use other ROMs than CM based

I think I know what the problem was.
I did use a modified host file for ad blocking (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916098)
I don't know why changing the host file was causing this problems, but without it a ROM and Kernel combination which caused problems before is working.
I also have this problem, but I haven't tried anything yet. So what's the solution for it? Perform a full restore?

Like I said, I stopped using the linked modified host file. That works for me.

OK so it seems my phone has an issue with any rom other than stock as I have tried them all and I have 3 things that happen: a. Phone will reboot on its on or b. The screen will go black with the buttons lit up. Or c. It will freeze on me. This is any rom other than bone stock. Any one know what could be the cause of this?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
okay , your phone looks like hard to use.
what version/model is it ? is it possible you flashed GSM ROM to 4G Nexus S ? or 4G ROM to GSM ?
okay , your operator is AT&T , forget it ... it wouldn't be 4G
orginal MIUI and orginal CM7 , all the same ?
I haven't tried any miui roms but every rom I have tried has been for 9020s. I have tried bugles beast, NSCollab, oxygen, we scream for ice cream (which I fully expect to have issues but could not resist trying) , blanddroid, and nexusMV all with the same issue. I even tried several different kernels to see if that would make a difference but it didn't
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
There's a low chance your cpu can't take any voltages/frequencies outside stock kernel range. Because that black display/lit buttons thingy happens to me if I go too low on voltages or freq.
What are the stock voltage rages? So I can try that theory out?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
Nexus has model of 9020S ??
i only heard about 9020A,F,T and 9023
default MIUI doesn't over/underclock or UV
To further update today I have been running a stock 2.3.7 rom made by drew garen that has been running well with no reboots, freezes or anything but again it is stock with the exception of being rooted and 2.3.7 instead 2.3.4 like my stock rom and the only reason I am running it instead of my actual stock one is for google wallet.

Nah, NS4G is running 2.3.7 as it includes the required NFC chip update to run Google wallet.
OK so even with that rom it has been acting stupid though not as bad then I went to my stock rom and again the same thing so I think I am just going to unroot and take it to best buy because I am pretty sure it is not supposed to have this much trouble
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
Well I am completely stock and unrooted now and so far no problems so my question would now be did I just have a bad root or something? Should I retry rooting now that its back to original or should I take it to best buy and try to get them to replace it? I really like playing with rooted phones and trying different roms and stuff but it is kinda impractical when my phone won't handle it...that's why I am wondering if I had done something wrong maybe?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
I have the NS4G but I've never had those issues on any ROM
Well after being unrooted since yesterday I am now no longer getting any freezes, black screens, or reboots. My question now is, did I possibly do something wrong in the root process that might have caused this problem?

Did you try re-rooting it?

I did just now using different more up to date rooting kit files then the ones I used before. I am going to stick with the stock rom for the rest of the day just rooted and see if the problem happens and then if it doesn't do like this then I may try running a custom rom and if this does not work I will unroot it again and throw the phone against a brick repeatedly so best buy will take the thing back as I tried taking it back today and i couldn't come up with a good enough reason for them too take it back it seems.
OK update time. Running stock rooted after unrooting and rooting (using a different root kit this time) I am having no issues what so ever and I even tried taxing the CPU by running app after app ran some heavy games and things of that nature with no restarts or freezes, however I tried NSCollab for a little while and it did act up though not as bad as before so I have gone back to stock rooted and everything is fine for now. I may try some other rom later but for now I am happy just to be rooted with no issues with the stock rom. I might try a less modded rom like buggles beast or oxygen net go round though other than not having the notification Widgets and reboot/recovery option when pressing the power button stock rooted does everything I want it too.

I think that problem could be kernel. Have you tried any customer kernels? Previously I had freeze issues and this so called 'morning coma', kernel fixed all those problems
while that could be the issue with that rom I think I have discovered my real problem could be something to do with titanium backup, either the program its self or one of my backed up apps. this morning on my stock rom it rebooted twice so I got to thinking and decided to do a wipe but instead of restoring my apps from titanium back up I just used the market website to send all of my apps to my phone and so far that seems to have fixed the issue. the only apps i did not re-install was amazon appstore (and a few games from there) rom manager, and titanium backup so I am assuming my problem is contained in one of those apps if I am no longer having the problem.
With titanium do you you just back up apps and app data? Or system data too?

Sorry if this has been posted somewhere else, but after flashing AOKP Build 3 my camera keeps giving me the error "cannot connect to camera." I have tried clearing data on the gallery app, rebooting the phone, and nothing works.
I researched some and tried some fixes I found but none had any effect.
I then reflashed to stock to see if stock Touchwiz would work and it works with no issues. Wiped all data, reformatted my SD card, removed my SD card and cannot seem to find the culprit. I also flashed CM nightly to see if it was an AOKP issue with my phone, but had same issue
For whatever reason I cannot flash any AOSP rom without having FC on my camera. Any help would be appreciated. Again, sorry if it has been posted somewhere I haven't found, but I've looked for a few days and didn't locate anything that worked.
Did you try fixing permissions?

What version of CWM are you using? I've heard some versions don't play nice with AOSP.
EDIT: I'm assuming you're using CWM.
You happen to try a different camera from the play store? My quess is it wouldnt work either as its probaly a kernel issue?

Yeah I tried with several camera alternatives and all said couldn't connect to camera as well. :/
this happened to me randomly yesterday on CM10 M1, I'm on leankernal and using twrp. I had just flashed the aosp camera mod earlier so I thought it was that. I just restored a backup I made the other day and it was all good since. I guess its a good reason to make routine backups on aosp

I've had the same issue and reflashed multiple times and tried all the above.
My Galaxy III SCH-I535 operates on Android 4.1.2 aokp_d2vzw_jb_milestone_1
Kernel is 3.0.48-cynagenmod-faux123-vzw...
I love this ROM. I'm not sure how it randomly a day or two into operation just quit the camera operation completely. This would be a real miracle solved

I wasn't able to get it to fix. I came to the conclusion that it was a hardware issue. For whatever reason it works on touchwiz but wouldn't work on aosp ROMs. I got a warranty replacement and it solved the issue. Wasn't able to find a software fix.

I am having the "cannot connect" issue on CM10. I posted about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2152348
The camera works fine in stock, but on CM10 no-go. According to this post its a firmware issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006128
only problem is to fix I need to figure out what camera firmware I have so I can flash a new one - but I cannot determine what firmware i535 has? Anyone?
Based on another thread, seems like I might be able to copy the bins from the cameradata folder on stock where the camera works. No need to flash or anything.

Hi guys,
there is an app in the play-store which i would like to have on my nexus5 (click)
But it says that the app and my n5 are not compatible.
I'm wondering why because my n5 runs cm11 and the app was available for my galaxy s2 which also runs cm11.
So i modified the build.prop on my n5 and set the ro.product.device=gt-i9100.
But still i am not able to intall the app on my n5.
Do you have any advice how i could get the app?
I also was not able to find the apk using google :crying:
Thanks for your help!

i don't think the playstore is looking for your device model - more likely for your sdk level/ screenresolution or something like that ^^ (so manipulationg build.prop like you did doesn't provide you anything
that app was updated last in jan 2013. way before the n5 release, way before android 4.4 or 4.3 or 4.2. i think you would have to wait until they at least update the app to support the android version that youre running. email and ask the developer.
So i am curious about what would happen if i replace my build.prop with one from a stock s2. I mean the app was running on my s2 cm11 so i guess the android os doesn't matter. But i'm wondering what else could be a reason. I can't believe the screen resolution is causing my issue.
And one last question: i can't break anything by replacing my build.prop temporarily can i?

you just wont boot and will have to reflash your rom or the factory img. you wont brick it, unless you dont know how to fix it. when not just edit your build.prop manually with a root file explorer?
I did modify my build.prop using root explorer but gt-i9100 as device and 4.3 as os weren't working. So i guess i will try a few more settings. But the play store didn't detect my n5 with modified build.prop so i'm wondering if this workaround is working at all.

you should have "focal" as your camera app, but you can also just flash a stock ROM that has root so everything is back to its familiar setup and apps.

I performed the data wipe/factory reset with the latest version of twrp, installed the rom, installed the gapps package and everything seems to work fine except for the camera. There is no app at the drawer, i can not install google camera from the playstore, and the apps that i installed either in apk or zip form do not work. Some crash, camera zoom fx doesnt have the option to take picture and some other apps throw an error message about "can not find the hardware camera" and staff like this. Can someone help me plz?

then it must be an issue in the ROM itself.
either a bad download or an bug in the system.
inquire in the specific rom thread to address the problem and if you have time Google "log cat android" and make a log when you try to open the app.

@tokenpoke its indeed a bug in the system, camera is broken at cm 11atm, you need to apply a fix. The solution can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53381666&postcount=2909 , thnx goes to @webdroidmt for pointing that out.

no need to reroot if you've installed a custom recovery.
most ROMs are already rooted and there is an option when booting your system from recovery that injects root into nonrooted roms

It's a bug. Happens to me using Mahdi rom as well. Most likely cm related. Just stick to the workaround for now, would probably help if you made a post on jira.cyanogenmod.org so cm can look into it.
