Fixed shed loads of bugs. Single drop out, hiss on video missed calls on 4g and loads more.

My battery is fine.

Have you actually noticed these fixes? So far I have only noticed more bugs, than any of the promised fixes... From what I have read previously and now the situation was exactly this same for 4.4.2. But updates fixed these bugs, I will go back to 4.4.2 maybe 4.4.0 and see the difference for myself. I'll make a quick tutorial after I comeback from my holiday, on how to downgrade with out loosing all the data.

I don't know if I'm just imagining it, but my battery life appears to be a lot better now that I've updated the phone. It was shocking before. Same goes for my Nexus 7.

Ah cool, neat trick that, thanks

Although think I will take it of anyway, the rubberised back feels better imo.

Thanks....shame you didn't like the carbon fibre skin though Nexus.

Battery life terrible since update here. Currently 5 hours on battery, screen 40 mins, and at 35%...

Have people checked battery stats as some apps have not been updated. Sky go in idle and PayPal for example kill the battery.

I rooted my phone a few months ago, and now the 4.4.3 update keeps failing every time I try to update. Is this normal? I have kept the software on the phone as stock, just rooted the phone for the option to do stuff later. How do I go about upgrading the phone?

What message does it give when it fails?

As far as I know, it should update if it's only rooted. If you've edited anything else (custom patches, changed the build.prop, anything like that) then it won't update unless you restore those files/settings to stock.

It wouldn't let me update my rooted phone either. The Android logo with 'error' written next to it always appeared.

I did this instead:

Found the problem, had the custom module 'Maximise Widgets' running in Xposed, so uninstalled that and it's updated fine!

Agreed, I'm keeping my skin for now but the soft touch plastic is way better. Mainly keeping the skin on to cover a small maker I got when I drop my phone.

Same here, my phone since 10 was unplugged from charging left over in the hotel and now Its at 91%... With Wi-Fi on, the % goes like seconds...

Just got my Spigen Slim Armor case for my nexus 5, paid £9 for it from a seller on ebay and it's an amazing case, really snug fit and looks great!

Mine was like this for the first 3 days, now its pretty solid again.

deltalinx · 12 Jun 2014 at 22:03

Few shots with the case on.

-Mike- · 13 Jun 2014 at 01:19

Is that genuine?

deltalinx · 13 Jun 2014 at 03:12

I hope so? Does it look fake then? the case it came in has the hologram on it and genuine spigen product? I've never had one before so not sure what to look for, it looks and feels alright so...

deltalinx · 13 Jun 2014 at 03:20

Now you mention it I've just checked the box it come in and a authenticity ticket is supposed to be in there to check online to see if it's real and there was no ticket in there, the box looks real though and there is a hologram on it etc, I have contacted the seller.

Here is the listing, the seller is also very new.

What do you think?

Hologram should mean its authentic but I'm not 100%

-Mike- · 13 Jun 2014 at 07:46

The text just looked a tad funny to me in your photo, but it could be whatever you took the photo with causing that! It's very cheap for a spigen though - and yes there should be a little piece of paper with a number to verify authenticity.
