Hi i was just wondering if anyone knows how to get the nexus 5 fully working with verizon network. Thinking about ordering one tonight. Thanks in advance.
Seriously?
There are several threads on this topic already. A mod is not going to like this.
Answer, No.
Bro search before posting. There's already a thread on this. And so far it's cr*p. I bought an N5 to use it on Verizon. I'm gonna a try a couple tricks(don't ask please) and if it doesn't work then I'm off to Tmo or sell it for the Moto X.

Oooh yah I felt really dumb about that to be honest. :/
I got frustrated with my Gnex for a sec and I'm like screw this I'm gonna save others from defects from the Nexus 5 and then made the thread without any thought. But the other defect thread isn't very organized(at least at glance). The OP isn't updated with all the defects. U literally have to search through 50+ pages of post.

So it doesn't look good for the N5. I'm selling my 32gb unlocked sealed in the box. Thinking about HTC one or MotoX?

People really spent $400 on a phone that clearly wouldn't work on vzw, hoping that someone would crack some magic code? Can I get some of the other cash you have lying around please? Wtf

Of course he didn't. There are so many people that like to think that people will worship them fro trying but they actually have no idea where to start.this is a classic example, never a reply, saying it worked or didn't.

Will Walmart be selling the nexus 5? How would that even work? ( i still have the old plan *classic plan*) when i did my last upgrade this year (one time payment) $168.99 for the galaxy S4 (T-mobile) and i continued with the old plan now my mom is due for an upgrade I'm gonna give her my s4 and use the upgrade for the Nexus 5... But has anyone heard anything about Walmart carrying the Nexus 5?
Thanks in advance.. =]

My guess is that they will. I'd say look for something around Christmas or maybe black Friday.

Just saw Nexus 5 boxes in a Black Friday commercial but they didn't specifically mention it.
Just called my local Walmart and they said they don't do T-Mobile contract anymore... Just pre-paid... ={ but they said they have no idea about the nexus 5... Has anyone else called??

I actually work at Walmart. No, we won't be carrying the Nexus 5. If we do, it would only be through Sprint.
Perfectly good phone. Still no lollipop for it yet. Look of things. This project just fell right off the table. Like the Verizon 12.2 pro tablet.. My day with Samsung products about to come to end.. HTC was the best device I ever owned. Nexus are made way to cheap and over priced.
I'm starting to feel the same way about this note edge.... But I disagree with the nexus stuff, ever since before the nexus 6 they were very inexpensive. Back when I was strictly HTC, they sucked at releasing updates.
I am disappointed with Verizon.. other Note Edge owners on other networks have received lollipop.
Trust me do not get the lollipop.

^^^^what he said..
From what I've heard from others I don't think I want lollipop now. If this phone could be rooted and unlocked then I would consider a lollipop rom.

I've been with an android phone since day one (currently on my 7th Android phone.. plus 4 different Tablets).. and everytime Google has an update you hear folks saying Don't upgrade.. don't upgrade. I'm running Lollipop on a tablet that came with Honeycomb 3.0 and it works well.
Galaxy Note 4 Android 5.1 Lollipop update incoming in the next two weeks:

Hopefully... this will also benifit us Edge owners.

I doubt its on there list. The edge is know as a tablet in Sammy eyes. S6 and note 4 is the bread for sammy right now. Not even there s6 edge getting any attention.

Lollipop isn't bad
Worked fine on my Note 4. The complaints were from people who didn't clear cache or factory reset after the update. Other than the new camera interface and app complaints, it is a worthwhile update.
I'm so ready for an update, I'm a little disappointed on how sluggish this phone is and I still have 12 gig free space

yeah i check for updates everyday and get pissed off all over again
Just spoke with a rep from Samsung
I called again to complain to Verizon about the lack of updates to the Noted Edge. She called Samsung as if to push the blame off on them as to why the release is not available. The Rep said that it was Verizon that hasn't set a release date. She informed me that if I take my phone to a Best Buy and have someone from their Samsung experience update it for me. She said they have a tool to force the update. Is this true? has anyone done this? Or is she full of it?
I'd also like to know if this is true? If so, I'll be there later today doing it.

Sounds like she's full of it...
Apparently the final version of MarshmAllow was released today. Any bets on when verizon phones will see it? My money is on 6 months from now.

If how long it took for the Droid Turbo to get Lollipop is any indication...
You will probably get your tax refund back (USA) before the Note 5 gets Marshmallow.
The Note 6 may be even available for preorder before then!
In other words, don't hold your breath. That would be very bad for you!
Probably when Android 7.0 Nicotine comes out.
I'm Thinking when the Note Edge 2 comes out or the Note 6

Well.... Right about Samsung pay being an OTA. But the OTA is already out with Samsung pay. mm will be early next year latest and as early as a month away from what all sources are saying. I personally can't wait for mm

I thought so too but I installed it from the Google Play store yesterday. And then it disappeared (at least temporarily) from there

Might have been a mistake. Both Samsung and Verizon have said OTA. So untill that OTA I don't even expect it in the store. The Samsung website said when OTA is available it will be built into the system on update

From the videos I've seen so far the doze feature will be nice to have to help with battery life on the Note 5. I will not hold my breath for a quick roll out of MM.

I'm looking to see if marshmallow comes to my note 3. I'm still on KitKat 4.4.2. I haven't made the jump to lolipop yet. I might skip Lolipop and forge ahead with marshmallow.
Any word on a release date from Sprint?

Hopefully soon. I want to experience Marshmallow on the S6E before selling it for the S7E.

Not Sprint's fault this time. Europe only received the update from Samsung this week. Clearly the fault lies with Samsung dragging its feet and trying to force us to upgrade to the S7 (which for me is not going to happen as this will be my last Samsung)

I honestly haven't decided. I may wait for the next Nexus. Was seriously considering the G5 but don't think I can deal with not having an app drawer. All apps on home screens is one of the reasons I've never been fond of ios/iPhone

I too want the G5. I like the whole module concept, especially the camera one that extends battery. I'm on the fence though because I'm intrigued by the S7 Edge but at the same time wondering about the next Note lineup up and hoping there's a new version of my Note Edge as this thing is still my favorite phone to date. It really sucks Samsung dragging their feet on marshmallow and is the big reason why I feel like switching to another manufacturer.

At this rate, I'm gonna have marshmallow first through my S7E. I wanted to try it out before switching phones.

Never had an LG but aren't they slow to update? I don't think I've ever preferred an LG over an HTC or Samsung device either. That camera addon better shoot mind-blowing pics and vid if you have to carry it around or have it connected resembling an 80s brick phone lol.

No not really. G4 has been on marshmallow for well over a month now while Samsung is just now starting to push it overseas. I mean there was a time they were awful but so was Samsung at a time and still is.
