you can fix it if you are rooted

its a known problem since this phone came out with Roam. I tried it, fixed it using the hack

is the rattling of the power or volume buttons considered a defect?

i wanna RMA my phone.... looks like gorilla glass isn't immune to micro scratches lololol

yogenfruz 11-25-2013 03:22 PM

Might be getting this phone within the week. My main curiosity is about Hangouts. Does it completely replace any Messaging/SMS app now?

knight604 11-25-2013 03:38 PM

You dont have to use hangouts , totally up to you.

yogenfruz 11-25-2013 03:49 PM

Okay, just everything I've seen about the phone mentions using Hangouts and frankly, I don't really like it's layout and how it seems to not sew hangouts/mms messages together into one thread.

Peturbo 11-25-2013 05:15 PM

My nexus 5 arrived in richmond on saturday. But expected delivery is on tuesday.
:okay:

You have a choice.

Just got my diztronic case. Glad its the 2nd revision with the centered camera and perfect bottom mold. Fits like a glove. Gonna order the SGP neo hybrid as well for comparison just cause. Lol.

My nexus said it was going to be sent out on Dec 3 from factory but to my surprise it showed up today a week earlier! I was pumpedn for sure.

May not be worth the "good phone/bad phone lottery" to RMA for that unless it's falling off. If you get a replacement with dead pixels, broken speaker, screwed up earpiece and STILL have a wobbly power button then you'll kick yourself.

I'm in the process of an RMA for a dead external speaker right now on my n5. Takes 8 days to ship a new one out to me and if the replacement sucks too I have to wait until the first one I send back clears RMA (14 days after they receive). Might not be worth it to RMA something unless it's unusable in its current form.

3klipze 11-27-2013 01:43 PM

Thanks for the reply. I didn't plan on Rma as many people have this issue and I will most likely end up having another unit with loose power button. Hopefully my case will help.

My 2nd one rattles less than my first but honestly it doesn't bother me.

Anyone know how to reorder Google Now cards? I liked having my weather on top but did something random last night and now my commute is on top and weather is on the bottom.

Edit: it appears to have fixed itself :suspicious:

I got my Nexus charger.

You can read my quick review on my blog

And BTW, it's in stock on Amazon. Cheaper to order than Google as Amazon ships for free.

BlackV62K2 11-28-2013 03:02 PM

Received my RMA phone....has a dead pixel but working mic. I returned my first N5 b/c the mic wasn't working properly. Will most likely return this one w/ the dead pixel. Sigh.
