Advice Google Nexus 5

[MYstIC G]

Have to be honest, I'm tempted just because the camera sticking out a little bit is a little annoying at times

 

[Embattle]

Yeah least you can put it in its back without thinking you might mash up the camera with the case.

Just got 4.4.2 on my Nexus 5 & 7.

Check your phone updates!

 

[MYstIC G]

Nothing here

 

[Tilda]

Just got it! Whoop!

So I have this fm transmitter that sticks out of the cigarette lighter for my old iPod, I'd like to get a similar thing for my nexus 5. Anyone run in to something like this?

 

[Poag]

How did it connect to your iPod? 3.5mm jack or 35pin connector?

3.5mm jack ones are super common, afaik there aren't any for usb-mini ports

How's everyone getting on with their Nexus 5 ?

I saw a Nexus 5 yesterday at work, thought it looked nice but when I compared it to my HTC One, no contest, the Nexus looked cheap even though it was running a later version of Android. Build quality definitely went to HTC.

 

[MYstIC G]

Really liking it. Google now is coming along nicely the more I use it.

 

[Nate]

was the 35 pin

Get your self a decent head unit that supports bluetooth streaming audio.

There are some really cheap second hand ones on ebay etc.

 

[MYstIC G]

OK Google doesn't need the voice set to US English anymore (about time)

Still going well, probably my best phone so far even though it technically wasn't my most expensive.

 

[MYstIC G]

Well now I'm impressed because mine just took a trip down a flight of stairs and survived.

 

[Fast]

Love my Nexus 5. Some of my fav pics I've taken with it. Edited using the Nexus 5 built in software.

 

[Ch3tan]

Anyone selling theirs, need a new phone.

 

[Nate]

Saw some deals on carphone warehouse I think for £250 or smth

Think it's run out

 

[Ch3tan]

Yeah it was a couple of weeks ago. 279 there now, still cheaper than from google

 

[old.user4556]

@Ch3tan did you get your Nexus 5?

 

[Ch3tan]

No, buying a g2 from eskdee instead.

 

[Ch3tan]

So eskdee went awol, hopefully he's ok. I couldn't wait so got a used Sony Xperia z for 130.

It's ok. Not really a step up from my s3 apart from being a lte version and having a good screen. The gallery app Sony bundle is awful, but apart from that it's very close to stock. Impressive speed.

 

[old.user4556]

Nexus 5 still impressing regarding its screen.

Any one suffering issues with wireless ac connections on android?

 

[Ch3tan]

I got an odd error yesterday, can't remember it now. It could see my wifi, it could auth but the connection was refused. Had to reboot phone and router to fix it. Other wireless devices in the house weren't affected.

 

[Embattle]

I've read some reports from the beginning of the year of some problems in the latest versions of android and ac connections, mine just seems to drop a lot and then won't reconnect at times without restarting the phone.

 

[old.user4556]

The only wireless thing lately was when I was using the Nexus 5 as a wireless hotspot - my Nexus 7 would connect, but not traffic was getting through. I had to recycle the tethering on the 5 to get it back up and working.
