Nexus 5 - Issues with Ear piece + randomly switches off
Hi Guys,
Although I am not Developer or pundit but passionate about tech savvy. So then I have this LG Nexus 5 hammerhead 32 GB which was working excellently till my upgrading it to 5.0.1 somewhere in last Dec'14. Since then it started behaving erractic where all sound systems are operating & working Except handset earpiece, so had use speaker which was embarrassing when with group of people around.
In nutshell, there are 2 major problems with my handset - first Earpiece doesn't work and second it switches off (restarts) randomly. Consequently placed all my efforts to resolve these issues by way of rebooting, Safe mode, factory reset including upgrading to Android 6 Marshmallow but without any fruits. Presently it is running on 6.0.1 and random restart issue has become quite frequent therefore I am unable to use it. Sincere request to assist in restoring my Nexus 5 to normal working. Pls pls pls

Hello,
Thanks for using XDA Assist.
Your thread will be moved to Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting.
Have you tried reflashing the ROM?

XDA Assist

Try starting from scratch by flashing the factory images: http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/tutorial-how-to-flash-factory-image-t2513701
This should fix your random reboots. If that doesn't help for the earpieces, you may consider a hardware issue.

[Completed] [Q] Flashed ROM(s) Still have same issue

A Big Thank You to all the Phone Gods here! I've found many answers on XDA - I've been on a crash course on Android since Dec. 2014 and am up to Learning ADB (I work too much trucking OTR). I'll try to keep it short. Current ISSUE: My 4 phones will not take a picture when motion is detected (it detects motion, but no pic)
I flashed stock ROMs on 2 of my 4 phones, (LG L9 769 JB 4.1.2 T-mo [U.S.] and LG Exceed2 VS450PP KitKat 4.4.2) trying to fix this issue i suddenly started having with all 4 phones, which began at the same time[app was installed on different days on all 4]. I was using the phones with "motion Detector Pro" from the market, trying to catch a thief (apparently they live here n know phones). Same issue with similar apps from the market. It does record video with motion detector apps.
Any help in fixing this issue would be greatly appreciated!
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. It sounds like an issue with the app if you have the same problem on multiple devices. You might have to use a different device to catch that thief. Something like a surveillance camera.

Desperate for help

Hey guys!
I have posted before but since then the issue has exacerbated to the point where I'm at my wit's end.
I have the SM-P907A AT&T version of this tablet. I bought it second hand and started experiencing issues almost immediately, although nothing as bad as what I'm going through now.
It began with the odd blue-screen and very rare restart. It quickly escalated when I created multiple profiles (user ids). The restarts would happen entirely randomly but without fail within 10 minutes of operation no matter what I did. Oddly enough, it would NEVER restart when connected to a power supply, though I have drawn very little from that.
Thusly, I factory reset my tablet and hoped that would fix the issue; to no avail. Then I decided to Odin flash the stock ROM. Again no joy. Restarts were persistent and regular when the tablet wasn't connected to a power supply. I then rooted the tablet, installed Titanium Backup Pro and proceeded to freeze all apps/odex-es related to Samsung Knox. As some have posted, doing this helped them out. Not lucky enough, I guess.
My questions:
Did my setting up multiple users somehow mess with the tablet in such a deep and integrated way that even factory resetting, re-flashing stock would not help? Is that even possible? My firmware version is P907AUCU1AND7. I'm going to manually update to Lollipop but if my meddling with the multiple users "broke" something essential, will that help?
No, proppably not

I don't think that using the multi user functionality has anything to do with the issues you are experiencing. I have 3 user on my tablet and using it for a year now. Both on KitKat and Lollipop that I am using now. Both rooted, KitKat with Xposed also. Never had issues with blue screens and reboots.
Issues with US devices have been posted regularly and explanations have been posted. Don't focus on multiuser for the issues you experience.
I' am using the SM-P905 International version (EUR)
PDA: P905XXUABOG1
CSC: P905EURABOG1
Ridiculous
Okay guys. Seriously ridiculous. I downloaded the lollipop ROM but got an error when adb sideloading it because it requires the previous firmware P907AUCU1ANK2 for it to update properly whereas I have the one older than that: P907AUCU1AND7.
Can someone help a brotha out? Post a link from where I can download it?! Maybe share their stock rom file?! Pretty please? I've managed to find only TWO results on google. One is a mobilefileserver result requiring that I Pay $60. The other is a Chinese site requiring that I pay significantly less but in a way which is baffling me at the moment.
Any good guy out there who can help??????

Random restart is the problem of cracked battery connector. Re solder the battery connector will fix it permanently.
Read the thread " Flickering Screen " in Galaxy Note or Tab Pro, you will see they all have similar problem like yours and the fix is simple.
No software or upgrade will fix the hardware problem, regardless Kitkat or Lollipop.

[Completed] Cannot receive calls when LTE is on, Nexus 6p

Hello everyone!
I hope you can help me because it is driving me nuts. I got a brand new nexus 6p and since day one i cannot receive calls while lte is on, i can make calls but it takes a while to connect. If i switch to 3g, the problem goes away, but i think it is also affecting battery life. I barely manage to get full day with medium usage. I tried custom roms like CM but still the same, yesterday installed android N, so will see if battery life improves, so far not bad... I tried changing apn but no luck either. Also tried flashing different radio, no luck.
Tried calling google but since the phone was not bought from google store they cannot replace it. I am pretty sure it was an update that f#$%&d it up, because i tested the phone before buying and it was receiving calls, but after update all changed.
I hope you guys know a solution to my problem.
Thanks!

[Completed] Nexus 5X reboot loop

I bought a Nexus 5X a month back. Within a week of purchase, my phone started restarting automatically. I tried factory reset and gave it to the service center, where they did something with the software and even then the problem persisted, few days from then I updated to Nougat and there was no issues for another 3 weeks. Now the problem has again come up, how to fix this issue? Some say its a software issue and some say its power button issue. Please guide!
