    AT&T N5 activation Nightmare

    Why would you even have to go to the store at all? All I did was transfer my SIM card from my old phone to the new. Everything activated as soon as it booted up, LTE and all. Unless you had to upgrade to LTE service, but I already had it, so I don't know.

    Anybody Planning on Rooting and Flashing?

    I already unlocked the bootloader, but I haven't flashed a custom recovery yet. TWRP is still in the testing phase and CWM hasn't even released one yet.

    Quickest way to get a Nexus 5?

    re: 'I've Ordered a Nexus 5' Thread! (Order & Shipping Discussion) 32 GB black... I ordered mine about 4:30 EDT and at that point the 16 GB models were completely unavailable.

    Why is my AT&T 4G LTE speed so slow?

    Ever since I got the phone several months ago the 4G speed has been noticeably slower than the Wifi but I never actually ran a speed test until today and this is what I got... 7.41 Mbps up/5.45 Mbps down with 76 ms ping. Is it just me or does that seem really slow considering AT&T boasts the...
