All,
I got a full refund from Samsung for my phone, hence this post.
Just wanted to bid goodbye to this forum and all the lovely people here.
Got to learn and explore a lot of things in this forum with this device.
Thinking to move to HTC 1 as of now... but then wanna see how S3 turns out to be. oh btw hows the new xperia if anyone knows
enjoy your new choice of phone ybyb
just curious how you got a full refund from samsung and how long did you have that device in your hands before getting the full refund.

Whoa!
Which country?
And what did you tell them?
India/New Delhi.
Just showed them the push notification bug and which obviously they couldn't solve.
It took sometime for the whole process though
And they refunded?
Holy ****!

But one thing about which I am still confused is that u said that u have used ur phone for 1.2 year means definitely ur phone warranty is over after 1 year. So without warranty how did u get refund??? Because my phone is also 1.2 year old
CRAP! you refunded the phone even it is way over the warranty date! wow. i want to do that as well. mine keeps rebooting and before that it said it usb storage has been removed. since then i have never seen the homepage etc. im only stuck on the samsung logo. probably my phone is defective on its internal sd and its motherboard. i hae sent it to a service center but they said i should bring it to their main service center to fix. i'd might ask for a refund as well do i can buy a fresh i9003 in mint condition. i have been using the phone for 10 months but had been sent to the service center twice. surely its defective.

I had put in the request before my warranty expired. it was a long struggle.

oh... Means I lost my chance.
I've now had about 6 or 7 replacements of Nexus 5's with varying ***K numbers and finally Google have asked me if I would accept a full refund instead of a replacement.
The main issue I've been getting that isn't being fixed by them is nobody can hear ever me properly as it's always muffled on their end although I can hear them perfectly.
If I were to get a replacement, there's a 99.99% chance that the issue will still be there but I love everything else about the phone too much.
If I were to get a refund, what alternative is there that's as good as the Nexus 5 offering a pure Android experience?
Weird... Since I bought this phone people say they hear me more clearly now.

Since the problem exists for everyone I can guarantee you the problem will still be there. Accept a refund or wait for a software fix. Cover up teh 2nd microphone to see if that si any better.

It's noise cancellation. depends on where you are (how much background noise and how close to the second microphone the noise is)

Doesn't matter why, but its crystal clear for me.

Well, there are obviously no devices which provide the pure android experience except the GPE editions of HTC One etc.
However, if you like to root, then you can basically buy any high end device and flash a custom rom and enjoy the pure aosp experience. But the Nexus 5 is Google's baby and the awesome support you will get here won't be available elsewhere! Nexus 5 is a cut above the rest when it comes to development
I would strongly suggest you to wait for Google's next update

Well, I won't say it's crystal clear but there isn't much muffling on my device. Yes, as rootsu explained, it surely does depend upon the environment you're in.

6 or 7 times, honestly i don't know how you have the patience. Luckily I haven't experienced this problem, what i do know is that when i had the S2 i used to get very good call quality. Its noise cancellation worked to well. I'd imagine its the same for the S4 and S5.
One thing I will say though, I don't think i'd happier with any phone currently more than the Nexus 5. I had the LG G2 briefly, expecting it to be a superior N5 I was shockingly disappointed. The build quality is relatively poor compared to the N5 and the screen isn't big enough for me to notice the difference. The back was a finger print nightmare (though the white version of the LG G2 might disguise this) and I personally found the buttons on the back awkward.
The deal breaker ultimately was knowing i'd not be able to get pure AOSP for the LG G2, not in the same manner as the Nexus 5, in that it comes with stock vanilla rom, to which i can simply add Xposed frameworks and tweak every aspect of my rom. The G2's would always be custom version from CM or AOKP etc, (which isn't necessarily a bad thing for most).
Anyway, all this made me appreciate the N5 even more. (The white one )

various results of it being successfully disabled in build.prop
I've had this issue on every single N5 I've had from Google. Every single person complains they can't hear me properly or I sound like I'm far away from the mic. Blocking the top noise cancelling mic helps but I really don't want to have to hold my phone a certain way just to speak to my contacts (reminds me of the iPhone 4 antenna issue).
I'll just get a replacement again one last time and then try to find out if they will be addressing the issue in a future update or something.
I don't think there's any other phone that's as good as the N5.
The HTC One is too old now and I can't get a GPE version here in the UK. Also I'm too used to having 3 buttons as opposed to HTC One's 2 button approach.
I hate Samsungs from the horrible Touchwiz to their plasticky uninspiring build quality. To get vanilla, I'd need to root which means a void warranty.
Not keen on the LG G2 or Sony's for similar reasons about voiding warranty as Samsungs to get vanilla.
No offence but what was the point in creating this thread then? You've pretty much explained everything in your previous post. The device which you're looking for is a Nexus and you yourself have pointed out as to why you don't want to buy any other devices!
In any case, lets just be patient and hope that THE BOSS releases this fix in their next update! Cheers!
I've sent Google an angry email regarding this issue asking them to look into fixing it.
In the meantime, I've asked for another replacement.

No but by testing that you identify that it IS noise cancellation.
Asking for a replacement is useless. I mean literally useless. The new one WILL have this issue. There is no fix yet. Either wait until there is or get a refund.

I'm not settling for a phone that is useless as a 'phone'. I'm going to keep getting them to send me replacements until they understand there's an issue here that needs addressing. I'll just keep doing it until the Nexus 6 comes out then sell on my latest replacement as a brand new unopened handset and get the Nexus 6.
If this was the iPhone, they'd have addressed and fixed it a long time ago!! Why should we have to suffer this issue.
Hello guys , I got my nexus 5 from my relatives at US (I'm from India). Within the first month of usage, one fine day its motherboard got too much hot and eventually corrupted. I had to send it back to US to get it replaced (as its warranty can be claimed there). I dont think it's motherboard got corrupted because of rooting or any custom rom. Well after few weeks I got it back, and again within one month of usage it got hard brick. This time I'm not sure why it happened , maybe because of that I installed ElementalX kernel on Madhi rom ? or its happening because I'm using the charger that is provided with it from US and it has few voltage differences with respect to India. please guide me as I dont really want to mess it up 3rd time.
PS : I'm not a noob I have had Galaxy S2 for about 2 years and worked just fine for me without any problem. i always know what im doing but just confused that what is happening wrong with me when it comes to nexus 5. i have rooted so many of my friends phone and installed custom roms and no one ever encountered any problem .
Also to root nexus 5 i had used the roottool kit but i dont think it would have cause any problem as the problem arises after a month or so after rooting or installing a custom rom.!
I can guarantee u that if u flashed mahdi and ElementalX and let it on stock settings that wasn't the issue, i have them both installed since i got my n5 and never had issues.. sorry to hear that btw

Very depressing.
First step I would do is get the correct charger and run stock for a bit

Stick to the stock ROM . I had all nexus devices ever released , tried most of the custom Roms. And after all am back to the stock one .
The Charger is an Intl one , don't worry about voltage differences am using it on both 110 and 220 .and never try to charge it with higher Amps charger .
All should be fine .

The heat issue can be attributed to the charger.
Please try to use fastboot and adb toolkits can be tricky.(I'm no purest)
Did you have a case on while using custom ROM/kernel?Sometimes my phone gets hot while under heavy usage with case.
Are you changing/tweaking anything with trickster or faux,That could be while your phone burned up?
As far as bricking and it occurring a month later,by brick please explain what you see.(does your computer recognize it when being plugged in,Did it random reboot to nothing, Did it just turn off and not on,Did the battery run out and won't charge.Did it bootloop and screen go black?)a brick normally is a result of modifying the software somehow. Even if your electric charging is off that doesn't effect your firmware radio modem etc.
@D.D.P. can you elaborate a little better or did I cover it.lol
I hope any of what I said helps clarify, best wishes.
I bought my nexus 5 from Google Play US and my wall adapter says input voltage can be anywhere between 100V-240V @50Hz-60Hz which is acceptable on ALL countries worldwide. I don't think voltage supply is an issue.
Please tell us how you use your phone, what apps are installed, what rom/kernel you are in, and the last activity of the phone before they went hard-bricked. This information can help us prevent this sort of thing from happening.

You covered it. I'd have added the fact that any custom kernals where the voltage is peaked, especially during charging state or when a case that is one piece or doesn't allow enough air flow will cause increased heat. Also, where was the heating problem coming from? Near the camera area or near the speakers? That would be two separate issues. And a device won't simply hard brick after using it, randomly on its own. Its possible that during an update or a tweak or mod that the coding didn't merge properly and would definitely cause that.
I've used imported chargers on both of my old HTC phones and I haven't had a single issue. Many of my friends do the same as the ones I had used to charge the device a little quicker.
My guess is it was just your bad luck that you needed to RMA twice and on top of that from a different country.
Then again, it's good to cover all bases so buy a home country charger and good luck with your phone
Agreed.Bricks don't just randomly. Maybe case of faulty device.I would like to know what OP refers to a brick as on Xda there are different types hard or soft.

Yes, that is a over heat issue from encasing not allowing air flow. Take your case off and make sure you're not running several background processes. Your issue should subside.

Also, don't use aftermarket chargers or quick charge settings. The cells in your terminal aren't designed for voltage flux. Use an LG brand charger, and charge normally. Thanks for reminding me @vin4yak
Hi guys i'm in a need of a new phone I and want to buy the OPO but I have heard many bad things about this device, all the bugs, yellow screen etc so should I buy this phone or not? What phone would you recommend? Thanks!
Its a great phone overall, The price for it right now is great for the phone. Its the cheapest thing for the specs that you get. Tho its an old 801 Snapdragon Chip, it gets the work done even by today's standards.
There has been bugs but those has been gone by now.
The Yellow tint happens to people once in a while now but mostly can be solved by colors or some fixes by users.
The Touchscreen inresponsivesness has now been solved with a new firmware that fixes that and its really great now.
The bugs are still here but come on dude. Its Lolipop, all the bugs that are present here are usually present everywhere else since its lolipop.
Overall, yes i do recommend this phone only if ur willing to live with the bugs and slowly let them be squashed by Devs, CM, and time
Thank you for the answer I found one bug that that still are unresolved the late calls issue I live in Sweden and I use a carrier called Comviq, many people have reported that they can't recive calls and when they reboot their devices they get a ton of missed calls
No. Too old and outdated now. Get something better.

The One Plus One is not old nor outdated. Its still a great phone for the price. Not everyone goes mainstream and buys the LG G4 or Galaxy S6/S6 Edge. I would love to buy them cause they are great phones but hey if ur talking about Specs, its something we lose but if you're gonna talk price, the OPO wins all the mainstreams by a huge mile.

Indeed, the 801 and 3 GB RAM is outdated and even the calculator app is lagging. Also the screen is 1080p only which is soooo 2010. /sarcasm
This isn't a CM bug maybe a lollipop bug, people have tried with other roms and they still receive late calls
Makes you wanna sell this phone!

I hate that you guys fell this way. I think this is maybe the best phone I've ever had. I've been running Android 11 for a couple days and I must say it vastly improved this phone. It fixed a lot of problems I was having and I couldn't be happier. It sucks because we have one of the only phones that can make Oneplus, Samsung and Apple fanboys jealous... IMO....

Sucks you guys have to wait so long to get it. It's truly awesome...
Love the phone, I really do but for updates this phone sucks big time. Came from a pixel and samsung phone.. their updates are so much faster. Even for a samsung phone.
I hope the update for android 11 is a good one because I'm thinking to switch back to a pixel phone.
Let me get this straight? You want to sell your phone because you haven't had an update in the last couple of months ? Clearly you've never been a Samsung user I'm loving the phone, coming from a Samsung galaxy note 9. I now have a Snapdragon , decent base storage , and that dual battery / 30 minute fast charge is perfect for heavy usage, paired with decent battery life, +5 hour SOT over 24 hours consistently with all the bells and whistles switched on.

I got an update every month with my S10 plus , so yeah I so know, before the S10 updates wore crap, region settings gone no updates themes don't work fonts don't work breeno services don't work heytap cloud doesn't work, I spent 1100 pounds on this phone I expect top notch for paying that amount, because your not having these problems it's not effecting you so you can't really comment on this..... Have you looked on the updates thread about all the other problems?...

you guys living in EU should read this to understand :
"As a side note, due to limitations of the GDPR, European users will not have access to the beta version of the software. Even if you have an eligible device, you’ll need to wait until the stable rollout of Color OS 11 before you’ll be able to install it. Users outside of Europe will be able to try the open beta if they wish."

But Oppo swear they will release stable version before end of 2020.
Luckily im using Fx2P asia version . I have to say COS11 is really nice update and this device is stunning

oh wait what
Im using CPH2025 and i got update to COS11 , im living in Vietnam
Try change VPN to VN ? which version are you in ?
I think oppo should be quicker with the updates inc security patches.
I remember reading this was one area they were looking to improve on.
I can't wait for colorOS11 but December is quite far away, hope the western market it get it much sooner.
