Alright...I have been waiting and waiting for a good android tablet...and right now...the Xoom is the best thing out... I know we have a few more options coming down the road...but it is just bugging the hell out of me that I don't have one yet. I just want to know from those that have a Xoom...was it worth it? Do you plan on selling it, returning it, or trading it in for another HC Tablet like the new Galaxy Tabs(sexy),G Slate...HTC whatever....or any others coming down the pipeline? Are the bugs too much to deal with....is the SD card slot not working...that irritating ...does no USB hosting make you want to throw it out the window...Do you get way too many FC's....are you really sick and tired of being shown Mobile Versions of web sites???? I guess my real question is....Are you happy?
Oh...I plan on surfing the web, watching some movies on an upcoming flight, playing some games, checking emails...ummm...facebook...twitter....normal stuff....if that helps at all
It's been one week now and l'm happy with it so far.

The browser is nothing short of crap. And other browsers I've tried are even worse... usually in terms of a horrid UI.

The jury's still out. If I get to day 85 of my 90 day Costco return policy and nothing has changed, it's going back. If Motorola/Google can iron out all the bugs, and I see a steady stream of high quality tablet apps, then I'm keeping it.

It's totally impossible to watch a YouTube video while browsing. If you click on YouTube it takes me like 5+ random clicks on anything to hopefully open the YouTube app... and then I pray that it doesn't force close... and if it does open I have to pray it doesn't freeze midway.
I'm with MikeyMike01, but also include the cold ghosting. I posted a question if anyone else noticed it, but only received a single reply saying they didn't notice it. I find it hard to imagine only my unit has the issue though.
I've also had issues with it taking sometimes 20-30 seconds for the screen to turn on after hitting the unlock button on the back.
I initially really liked it, but am now considering getting an ipad2.
I'm contemplating whether the 15% restocking fee is worth it (I got mine at Amazon)

Get it from costco (wifi version) they have a 90 days return policy, anything better comes out during the 3 months am taking it back.

My exact thoughts... sans restocking fee, since I got it at Costco.

This man speaks the truth.
I am glad that costco gave me a 3 year warranty... however I'm sure I'll upgrade within the first year lol.
Anyways, I love this tablet, I'm very happy I got it, and like he said costco gives you 3 MONTHS to decide if you like it or not! That's ridiculous! They accept returns no questions asked . I've returned the xoom twice and I didn't get asked a single thing. (unlucky with dead pixels)
edit: and costco gives you a free gel case!
At first I was going to buy the galaxy tab 10.1 (original version), but when I did see wifi only Xoom in stock at B&H I couldn't resist and ordered it. I just couldn't wait any longer.
After 3 days with it, I can say I'm happy with it.
Yesterday I started having hangs on the stock browser, I could scroll and zoom, but I couldn't click on any links. Only restart helped. So I removed the apps I installed yesterday and it seems the problem went away. So it seems the browser problems are somehow related to some apps that cause problems.
I haven't had any other problems.
bought it at Costco as well. Actually I'm replying this message on it.
I don't have any major issue with it and I love it! Don't care much about the motor gel case though.
damn thanks guys. Real honest answers....I couldn't wait...well I could but I got really aggravated at the end of the day from general life BS...so I ran out and picked one up to make up for it....Plus youngotta see for yourself. Any ways right? I had a boat load of Best buy reward zone certificates so I picked one up there...I figure I will play with it for a week and return it if I dont like it... but I feel like if I have any issues it will be more with honeycomb than the Xoom...and hopefully Google and Motorola will address them in the future. So far I'm liking it....I'm on it now.....here's hoping for a good experience or decent experience
my biggest complain so far is the screen. It just so washed out compare to my ipad. Heck, my Gtablet screen actually looks better (at the right angle of course). I love honeycomb though. It's a bit confusing at first, but now I don't think I can enjoy using a tablet with a different OS.
I got mine at costco also, so I'm not too worried about new tablets coming out. right now I'm very interested with the transformer. especially with its IPS screen. I just hope that it's built well like the xoom.
As many others have been doing lately, I also am getting ready to sell my Triumph and leave VM. In my case, I'm getting the Galaxy Note (just ordered it) and will be using it on Straight Talk. I have my phone on me 24/7 and just got tired of not having a completely reliable phone/service. I've really enjoyed being a part of this community and have appreciated all the work the devs put in. Wish I could have contributed more, but with every thing I've learned in my Android/rooting experience with the OV and MT I was able to give some little tips here and there, which I hope were helpful.
As a heads up, when I get around to it, once I get my Note all set up and play around with it to make sure it's all working right, I'll be posting this in the classifieds to give you guys first dibs on it before I put it on Craigslist or eBay, if you're looking to buy an extra or upgrade, along with a summary of the issues it has (fortunately nothing too major, pretty much just the basic QC issues everyone's had.)
I wish you all well as you continue on with VM and the Triumph, and I'll miss being a part of it.
I'm actually selling my triumph as well. Going to straight talk but getting the iphone. I know iphone dont kill me lol.
is it a good phone ?

Its not the best. If you spend some time reading reviews and checking out the forums here and on AndroidForums (its more active over there) you'll see all the issues people have had with it. I upgraded to it from my OV and since I was willing to overlook the minor issues I had with it I loved it but the unreliability of the touchscreen has driven me crazy lately. It definitely runs 100% better with cm7, although froyo is better for gaming and has HDMI. I'd say it really depends on your usage. If you're not on it 24/7 like me and can overlook the minor issues its great, otherwise I'd say to stay away. I hate saying that knowing I'll be selling it soon, but I can't in good conscience say otherwise

hey now, i see that you're complaining about the unreliability of the touchscreen. Have you tried removing the 2nd screen protector from the phone? I was complaining too until I removed it. Made a big difference.

I have had the phone for about 7 months now and I am still happy with it. Of course coming from a Blackberry I should be, but with the amount of customization and development available for this phone, you can fix ALMOST all the bugs or glitches that most ppl were complaining about on Froyo.
Over at androidforums, ziggy46 and some others are almost finished with a gingerbread rom that has HDMI working on it. All they need fixed is 3G/Data & and SMS/MMS which, thanks to our devs, we have had really good luck at getting to work on so many other roms.
On top of that, we are beginning to have new ICS roms popping up. This phone is far from dead as some would think.
I am too selling the phone and moving to another carrier. What will VM do to the phone after the different provider will port the number? Will I need to do anything before I sell? I reverted to stock, but CWM is still there, will the buyer be able to activate it?
Thank you, it's been pleasure to be a part of CM7 triumph development.

It's pretty simple. You just buy the phone (Amazon, Ebay, or Expansys USA would be some good places to look), then go to straighttalksim.com and buy the $15 Sim card along with their monthly service, pop the Sim card in, put in the apn settings, and you're good to go. You'd do basically the same thing for the iPhone. There's a thread here with a lot of info if you have time to red through it: http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?t=1753835 I had no problems setting mine up, so if you decide to go that route and have any questions feel free to pm me.

Straight Talk's BYOP program uses ATT or tmo, depending on which Sim you order. With either of those devices, you'd wanna choose the ATT Sim, as they would only get edge speeds on tmo. If you had a pentaband device or one designed to utilize tmo's 3g you'd choose the tmo Sim.

You're going to have to open it to resell it anyways, no one in their right mind would trust an unopend box.
Meh. Where have you been all along? This stuff happens for every device on xda in the beginning when device is new. Happened with one, with s4, with nexus 4, optimus G. You name or and these scary threads are all there buried deep down in all those sections. If you get scared by those, you won't be buying any device. Just man up and open that box

Do you guys even read? The OP is not complaining about his Nexus 5 unit he received and he hasn't opened it yet so he can preserve the ability to return the unit and get a full refund. The OP is implying that he has been seeing issues with the Nexus 5 which he is a bit concerned about and is not sure if he wants to keep it or not. The OP didn't imply that his unit is defective nor did he say what he received is not what he expected. Sheesh learn to read.

Best phone I've ever owned. Can't speak to the G2, but I've owned Droid Charge, Droid RAZR, GNexus, GS3, Nexus 4, GS4, and Moto X. Nexus 5 is leagues better than all of those except the GS4. With the GS4, it comes down to preference, and I prefer the N5.

You're making decisions based on issues other people are experiencing.. Nothing is ever perfect considering this is the first batch of new N5's. Overtime LG and Google will work together to identify what the problems are with the devices. Especially when you aren't going to open the box and speculate that it "might" have issues. Even if if your phone had issues, you could always call Google and request an RMA to get a replacement device. Why bother buy the device if you're going to think twice about it?
Holy crap the reading comprehension of some of you guys is in the gutter. Did you not read anything i wrote? I made it pretty clear that from reading of the issues in other people post that its made me hesitant on even opening the box. That was the whole point of the post and was asking if other who had been using their phones were disappointing or would take back the action of buying. So next time you want to jump down someones throat READ the post.
As far as the guy that said i had to open it, are you serious? What do you think "New in Box" mean... it means unopened 99% of the time. Ive sold hundreds of unopened phones, they sell much faster when they are new and unopened.

Cool story bro.
I love this phone. It's fast, fluid, and a Nexus. Can't compare to a G2 or GS4 or any other current Gen phone because I haven't used any (coming from gnex), but the phone just feels great in my hand.
I'm assuming you ordered the phone because you wanted the Nexus experience over another OEM. If that's the case, go for it and enjoy your device. I haven't had any issues with mine at all and there are fixes out for some already (saw a thread here about a fix for the jiggly power button). And any real defects should be covered by warranty.
I say go for it. If you really want a different device, then sell it I guess.

Yes i wanted a unbloated Android, i have in the last 6 months had an S4 and a HTC One (current phone), i can get both of them with google editions however they both lose things(HTC One loses lots of cam functions with play edition) with that. When i saw the Nexus 5 it was a phone made for the Google edition and that was the selling point for me. I saw the fix for the button but considering we all just paid $400 for these phones we should not have to open the phone and put paper inside it so a button doesn't rattle lol

i'm just waiting for mine to arrive on thursday to see if these problems are even problems to me or maybe i'll end up loving it

Like someone said, this happens with every phone. This sucks, I'm returning etc. This should be in q and a honestly.

Hello, I'm considering buying the Nexus 5, But I read that there are some common problems with the device Link, So is the device worth buying?, If so are there things I need to keep an eye on?, Like the box code or something? To be sure I have a fully functional model. Any advice is appreciated!!
Greetings,

You'll need to decide that for yourself. You may have none of those issues in that link you provided. Or you may have some of them, or all of them, or more than them. See where I'm going with this?
Get the phone and if it doesn't work out for you return it. I think it's a fantastic device, by far the best Android phone made to date. imo
Read THIS and make your own mind up
About half of the issues listed in OP's link are common on all smartphones these days. Any phone can come with dead pixels, there's always a bad apple in a batch of good ones. Tons of smart phones, even iPhones all have rattling buttons. All of the others issues are primarily fixed in software updates, and I haven't had any of the issues listed.

I haven't experienced any of those problems, had mine for about a month now and I'm loving it, for what it's worth.
I just want to chime in with a simple "yes". Even if you WERE to get a device with an issue, you can exchange it under warranty.
I'm in love with this phone. I got it specifically because its a root machine and has tons of development. Its an amazing device. Get it.

That's the thing with people now a days..lots of people complain about a certain device having "issues" that other people become unsure if they want the device.I personally don't believe in what people say in the forums with the issues they're having.I purchase a phone because its what I want if I were to encounter issues then I do if I don't then that's great.but I'm not gonna let what some people say about them having issues stop me from buying a device I want. You simply just have to buy it and test it for yourself.most people are just picky and start complaining about random stuff.I will probably get lots of hate about this post but I've been seeing a lot of "buying a nexus 5 but seeing lots of post issues,should I still buy" threads. You just have to buy the phone and see for yourself. Just wanted to put my opinion out there

As others have mentioned, buying from Google means you can always return you're phone for any hardware issues. They will even cross ship you the new phone so you're never left a day without a phone and can compare the two models before sending one back.
The supposed "issues" with this phone are severely overblown by some extremely nitpicky people. Get the phone. It's awesome.

So far, I have not witnessed this problem. Fingers crossed ?
No issues whatsoever here
No problems here.
I had plenty of that on the N5X and was starting again 8 mos after the second mobo replacement. I haven't seen it on this, but it's only 3 days old. OTOH, yesterday, my 9 week old Z3 Play was corrupted after an authorized update (Feb security on Oreo). Lost baseband so no wifi or mobile. IMEI doesn't show under System but does on getvar (baseband doesn't) eo pretty sure efs is onboard. Spent some time with MOTO hoping for a radio zip to flash or even the entire OS but pretty clueless. It's been sent for repair (replacement). How fortunate that 1) I have the Pixel and 2) if anything like this happens to it, I CAN FIX IT!
That comment section is cancer.
3a working flawlessly here.
A week now and running well without reboots, SODs or anything else.
That comment section sucks. Mines been going great too.
My phone has never rebooted but I have had the fingerprint reader stop working until a reboot.
No issues here. I bought launch day, so a week work nothing close to what's reported. I think it's just a vocal minority. Of course there will be a few bad devices that ship out. As long as Google stands behind them until they get functional units, all good in my book

yeah this annoys me. go back through the original reddit posts and there are a total of five people who have had this issue. five people, as a proportion of all 3a users with an internet presence, is all it takes for the android blogs to decide "many users" are having problems and the device is a failure.

The guy talks about how the 3a is a competitor for the XR and then says something about like it couldn't complete if it didn't have this issue. Lol. What a jerk. I also read a comparison of the 3a vs the XR on Tom's whatever tech site that said the crap LCD display in the XR is better than the OLED on our device. Please.

always very funny to me that people can go into a blind rage about a mobile phone like jfc have none of them ever had a single real problem
Fake news, they do this Everytime a new Google phone comes out
Well i'm on my 2nd Pixel 3a first one didn't charge out of the box so took it back now the replacement has this shutdown problem it's only done it once but once is enough, think i'll get my money back not risking going for a 3rd replacement, shame really as i like this phone and the camera is excellent.
Haven't seen this at all either
ya i havent had this either. i wonder if it has to do with certain apps. like anyone who has it do you use anything that needs an accessibility service for locking the screen?

After reading the article they report this happening even in safe mode. They are convinced it's not an app.
