Hi.
I have a nexus 5 in black and want to change my batterydoor in a white one.
I want to have a non-glossy white nexus 5
Did anyone do this before?
Are there any problems?
Where should i buy a white batterydoor?

I've seen backcovers on ebay for nex 5, try searching there, costs around $30 I guess.

So I have a few days left to return my moto x and have some questions for you guys. How is battery? I've seen it take hits from different sites. I average about 3-31/2 hrs screen on time with my X. How is the camera? Any input is helpful. Thanks.

I love my nexus 5 ! I would not trade any phone even for the new s5 that's going to come out. The development is amazing and the devs are very knowledgeable. As for the battery I get about 3-4 hour screen time. I usually take it out it the charger around 7am and it lasts me till 10 pm with medium to heavy use. The camera is also good I believe there was a comparison between the Nexus 5 and the Samsung S4http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-6AszlQIIs. I have never owned a moto x so I really can't tell you if the camera is better.

Man, there are a ton of these Moto X vs. N5 threads, please search before posting next time. But if you want my opinion, I have both and I prefer the Moto X. I do love the N5, I just like the Moto X a little better. Check my posts in this thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2642626
I also have both, haven't touched my X since getting my N5. To each his own

I HAD both. Stuck with the clear winner, the Nexus 5 (for my usage) :thumbup:
Edit: would like to add that the X is a great device. I still tinker with one weekly (sister loves it!)

I want moto x but nexus 5 is better.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
I have both in possession. Which is better?
The only thing that makes the X better is ergonomic design, the customization, always listening feature, Active display and the screen is better in most ways(IMO).
The nexus 5 wins in all the other departments, even the battery. If you do get an NX5 unlock the bootloader as soon as it's out of the box. Huge pay off

Moto X is better a little bit design but Nexus is better than overall. Nexus 5 battery is worse but we can fix it.

I don't understand what your goal is by posting that link. Its clear that you dislike the Nexus 5. Why not just trade it on Craigslist for a Moto X?

I meant to post this here in this thread
I don't have this phone yet, but I will be getting it in the mail Monday. I am coming from a Moto X, which is a great device. I love the phone overall. But two gripes I have is the development for the phone and the fact that it's "wannabe stock"
I want the N5 because of the ROM support. Its outstanding. I'm used to the Note 2, S4, HTC One, and when you have Roms on there, there's not a major difference. The AOSP Roms are always buggy. With the N5, your going to have a phone that was made to he tinkered with. Most apps that are made to replace something (lockscreens, launchers, etc) were made for fitting a stock android (N5) experience.
I am excited about this phone because its been a while since I've rooted a phone. Its an addiction that has been cured with VZWs S4 and HTC One, but The relapse is far more exciting then sticking with stuff almost out of the box

I used to flash a lot on my previous devices, but this phone is so awesome on stock rooted with Xposed, I haven't yet felt like trying any other roms.
Have anybody notice how responsive is the screen on this thing? Sometimes I barely touch the screen, and it detects it. I'm very happy with the phone. Coming from the Note 4, and loving it so far. Even the battery life, that had me worried for a while. But now, loving it!
Yeah i noticed the same thing as you. You can pretty much hover your finger over and icon and it will open the app. Pretty damn sensitive.
You have no clue how great this feels coming from the LG G4.

I was thinking the same thing. I loved the G4, but the screen was just too unresponsive. I also never realized how much more I enjoyed a button on the front and sides. Much more useful for motorcyclists who dock their phone on the handlebar.

Wow, in surprised how much unanimous hated there is toward the G4. I have never used the G4, but assumed it was a great phone. I loved my Note 4, but started to not love it so much when Lollipop hit. I really love my Note 5 and the screen is amazing resolution and responsiveness.

It's mostly the unresponsiveness of the screen that makes me not like it. It's irritating.
Sent from my LG-H811 using Tapatalk
Glad I wasn't the only one. Thought I had a defective digitizer.
Yep also upgraded from a G4 which has horrible screen responsiveness. Only thing that bothers me on the Note 5 is when I pick a song in Spotify as I put my phone down it chooses another song. DOH!
Does anyone have issues with black screen area getting pixelated? This "black clipping/crushing" issue was huge deal with Note 1(2?) and now I'm seeing on Note 5. It's not as bad as before but it still exists.
Try playing Iron Man 2 the roof scene where Tony kisses Pepper or movie Giver where everything is black and grey.
Do I have defective screen or something?
I have attached image of the screen & gammatest image. It's little hard to tell from whole screen due to camera focus but when I took macro shot of the screen, you can see pixelated blacks on the left and some on Iron Man armor. Trust me it looks worse on screen than picture.
Please download the image and view it on your Note 5 with max brightness, does your screen gamma look alike mine?
Please let me know, thank you
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
I just checked T-mobile store displayed Note 5 and it has same gamma setup and shows pixelation/black clipping issue. When viewing gamma test image, mine from 0-2 is pitch black and 3-10 is little lighter and 11-21 is lighter with same gradient
Also tested on S6 and S6 is set correctly with 0-21 gradually getting dark to light with no pixelated black screen...

I think he meant "how exactly do you test the device" lol.
Oh haha... download the 2nd image I have attached and view it in gallery with Max brightness. If your screen is displaying gradual shade from 0-21 than its good but if it's anything like mine then you are going to have black clipping issue...
This problem seems to exist on many note 5 out there but there are good ones out there I think. I just don't get why not all screens are calibrated the same....
So anyone else having issue like mine?

Download the second image I have attached and open it in gallery, make sure to put brightness to max. If it's showing nice gradual gradient you won't suffer black clipping issue.

Mine is 0-2 black 3-10 I can see differences in brightness as well as 11-21. They are don't look the same in terms of color. Are you saying 3-10 are the same to you?

Hi.
I switched from the note and I realized that I need a stylus for work.
I sighn documents and write notes all the time.
I also used the stylus when I use heavy work gloves.
I was wondering if you can suggest a good accurate stylus. I dont need any of the functionallity. I just need it to be solid, accurate and not scratch my screen.
Thanks.
