Hello evryone,

 

So almost two years ago i bought a nexus 5  (beginning september 2014).  At first the phone was great. Apps rann fine on it, no glitches whatsoever, so a pretty good phone. But ever since the lollipop update it got ultra messed up. Battery life got terrible (It last about 4 hours on youtube and charging it extra slow when using it. It'll go up by one percent every 5-10 minutes.). Massive overheating problem, it gets so hot so easily. using an app and running 3 apps in the background will get it hot (to a point where it could potentially overheat) in a about 20 minutes. Some apps can't even runn on it, periscope gets my phone heated in a matter of minutes.  My nexus will also glitch a lot.

Examples:

- keyboard stops working

- turning on phone and having to press the on button multiple times (it loads infinitely)

- when turning on phone i'll sometimes get the "optimising apps" message making boot up  alot longer and also heating up the phone masively.

 

Thanks in advance :)

go back to the previous version of android and problem solved... they make it run like that so people buy a new one even if they don't need.. android is android... whatever the version its a shity os.. I doubt I'm the only one who thinks like that...

My Galaxy Note4 got fucked up after the update too... its too damn slow, and even if im connected to the internet i am not allowed to call anyone on messenger for example.

just google it mate.. there's tons of guides... here's one https://www.androidpit.com/how-to-downgrade-a-nexus
