Google Nexus 5 by LG Users Thread!

[Student]

I wouldn't mind a little more (or some/any) penetration in my house. {insert witty pun here}

While the radio is much better than my gs3, i miss digiblurs Prl prioritizing 800. I find the signal is just strong enough so it bounces back between CDMA and 800mhz in my concrete building

What's the difference between the premier and regular Prl?

 

Is there any adverse consequences to flashing the boot. IMG of the g2 onto a nexus 5?

Thanks

you restart afterwards so it boots into the normal boot file. The boot.IMG isn't flashed but just a temp boot code. Its not permanent. Idr the differences. They all worked the same in my area. Just enabled the scanning of different area 800 sid which helped me connect as Ericsson set the 1x800 here to one in Washington state

[ChewyWade]

Any recommended cases, particularly that work with wireless charger? I'm looking at getting this one: http://www.wirelessground.com/ballistic-nexus-5-sg-maxx-series-case-with-holster-black.html or http://www.wirelessground.com/seidio-nexus-5-dilex-combo-with-metal-kickstand-blue.html

Premier Sponsor PRL has EVDO roaming while the regular sponsor PRL has normal 1xRTT roaming like stock sprint PRLs.

I caught this one on sale. I have read numerous places the wires charges works with it. I think it just looks sharp.

I have this case on my Nexus 5 and it does in fact work with the Wireless Charger sold by the Play Store.  You do have to find the charging  "Sweet Spot" which can at times be tricky, but it will charge fine.

I popped for a wireless charger for home and work. On the note 2 the USB port has held up fine but my Evo had it go bad 3 times. I had something like 6 even.

Have you had any issues with it affecting the camera? I read numerous reviews stating it did so I got the ultra hybrid when it went on sale (originally wanted the neo).

I'm hoping it's actually sooner. A guy on XDA ordered the same model the day before me and it still shows it as leaving on the 7th but UPS sent him a notice that it's out for delivery. He did next day shipping, I did standard so mine could be here between now and the 13th.

I'm having issues with my Nexus 5 with typing and especially the swype feature. I use the stock swype and for the last couple weeks it freezes up a little during typing and does crappy auto corrects? Anyone having this issues?

 Hah, another S4GRU member obsessively checking the Nexus 5 Waiting Room lol. I purchased mine the 15th, right after you.  Black 16gb.

Nope. Swiping on the Google keyboard still works great for me.
