OK I see, in this case I am getting great band 25 reception. the debug number didn't do anything on my phone.

do you have to buy the pro version of signal check? with the free one i cant see band information anywhere

i just flashed and am noticing better reception. I used to never get lte in my room and now i do. How do i check which band i am on?

Do you know where I can find old radios? Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

so this update contains a patch that enable spark?

yup coming into contact with any NFC chip will make that noise.

I don't see how your phone recognizing the NFC chip in the cards is an issue, that just means the NFC in your phone is working.

Great explanation thanks, I was a bit confused. Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk

Yea I understand that AOSP is stock android with no custom framework but I just didn't understand if there was a difference from the AOSP and stock builds. For instance why is there a 'nexus 5 android development' and a 'nexus 5 original android development'. For HTC development I know this means different roms between Sense and AOSP respectively, but why is this distinction there on nexus phones? Do the kernels work with roms on either forum?

I will be getting my n5 on monday and cant wait to tinker. Can anyone explain to me the difference between stock roms and aosp roms? Also which are you using?

I see I was under the impression that this phone already had the spark update, I didnt do that much research and kind of made an impulse buy due to my old phone breaking. I am not afraid to tinker around and try this but why do you say this is hit and miss? From your own experience?

Just bought a N5 off swappa. Do i need to flash a radio/firmware to get the spark update?

Changing launchers wont help with the pull down menu and that weird green on the toggles. I am not sure if it helps with the lag either.

I am thinking about getting the s5 but have never owned a samsung phone before, I have only played with friends/family's galaxies. Are there ROMs that make touchwiz more streamlined and better looking? I dont want to go AOSP and lose features but I dislike the look of touchwiz.

Sprint has a replaceable sim card and it is unlockable what makes the Verizon unit different? Are you saying Verizon has a unit that is like the nexus 5 where it can run on almost any carrier in the world? Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk
