Re: simply can't decide.. Well I think the idevices have spoiled me regarding sound quality :( I will always compare other phones to them because they have set my standard of quality i guess. Not saying the N5's audio is HORRIBLE, but it just wasn't as great as i would have liked. The external...

Thanks for the replies guys. To be honest, the only reason this is worrying me so much is because Nexus phones practically run off of your Google account. I am preparing to delete the email address or else I won't have that peace of mind like you said, even if the person did end up removing my...

I did that a few times earlier. I am just worried that my gmail will be vulnerable now, I have a second gmail though so deleting it wouldn't really be a problem. Maybe I am just being paranoid? *edit This is the page I read about having to delete the account from the phone...

Re: simply can't decide.. Well I know this response won't help much at all, but I was in the exact same situation as you but with my iPhone 5. I have tried countless android devices, always ended back with my iPhone for a different reason every time. 2 weeks ago I decided to try the Nexus 5...

Hey guys, so I sold an android phone today but my Gmail account was setup with the phone. I (stupidly) forgot to sign out before selling it. I have changed the password but I read that gmail accounts stay signed in on android until deleting them from the phone. Is there any other way to solve...

Hey all, just wanted to know (as a new nexus 5 owner) does your brightness throttle as the phone gets hotter with use? I am finding that when using the phone enough for it to heat up a bit, the screen will go from full brightness to a bit dimmer automatically for about a minute and then back up...

Re: iPhone to Nexus 5 iMessage to Hangouts Had this exact thing happen to me a few weeks ago when I switched from iPhone to n5. I called apple and they were no help so I solved it by doing these things (not sure WHICH one exactly was the solution) 1. Go into imessage settings and turn it off...

Re: Google photos app dimming?! Thank you so much!! This worked perfectly. Finally got rid of that default google + photos. :) Sent from my Nexus 5 using AC Forums mobile app

So far so good over here. Only weird issue I'm having is after a reboot it takes about 6 seconds before the power button registers clicks and turn the display off again. Is this normal or...? Sent from my Nexus 5 using AC Forums mobile app

Re: Google photos app dimming?! Well its comforting knowing its not just me having this problem. And I honestly don't know how to do that because it defaults to the Google photos app for downloads Sent from my Nexus 5 using AC Forums mobile app

Hey guys so I couldn't find this problem on any forums... When I open the Google photos app to view pics they appear fine and bright as usual, but when I am opening a photo from downloads and it opens in Google photos the picture goes from being bright to quickly dimming and it won't brighten...

Thank you! And I am glad to hear you got the S4! The more I use it the more I am really starting to love it. Now that these issues are gone especially. Trust me, it's usually just my luck to get a a phone and have to return it at least once. Every phone I have owned I had to return, but then I...

Well, I'm finally back with an update guys! Just wanted to start by thanking every person who participated in this thread or offered advice. I greatly appreciate you all taking time to post in a thread like this :) I went to my local Bell store and started off by letting the rep know that I've...

I honestly don't have a problem with the phone. It has been phenomenal, it's just that these problems direct my attention away from the beautiful phone itself. I haven't actually gone yet, just getting ready to head out now. But I will try my best to be polite and request a replacement. I...
