Headphone jack on the bottom? Hard pass.
OK guys, you all win. Smart lock isn't good enough and I need a fingerprint reader.
I assume that's what the Chinese man who just called me was saying as I accidentally pocket booked an Uber (AKA Peoples Uber apparently) in my pocket for somewhere in Xi An with the destination of my workplace here in the UK.

It is the only right place to put it.
Thank god for decent bluetooth finally so I don't have to put up with it at some point when all phones annoyingly do it.
you have no idea what you're talking about
Then it makes sense...poor people are on Android.
Wait what are the rich people using these days? This poor person would like to know.
I don't mind the fingerprint sensor on the back, my index finger is always on that spot so it's practical. The camera sticking out bothers me more honestly but as long is it has good battery life I'm in.

3GB of RAM and my podcast app/audiobook apps regularly get closed in a short time if I pause playback. Oh, and this is without even using my phone, just pausing from the headphone controls.
I know Lollipop has something to do with it, but I am so ready to get back on the Nexus train.
Bluetooth headphones throughout an entire work shift? Nahh.
Good for mowing the lawn and working out though.
Oh, and bottom headphone jack is best.

Because I'm not expecting Google to have color options from day 1, this is probably my biggest annoyance about the placement of the sensor. It's as stupid as the shitty iPhone cases that leave a cutout on the back for the Apple logo. Fucking hell.
I'm also not a fan of the power button and volume rocker on the same side, but that's something I can still get used to.
The next thing I need to know is whether it has a notification LED or glance screen. If it has neither, it's a total downgrade.
I'd never get a pair of bluetooth headphones for my phone, but I'm still looking for a simple and small receiver I can plug my headphones into. With volume control and skip/pause. That would be great.
Ohhh...I never even thought of that. Now I want one of those.
Easily get 8-9 hours out of a charge on the Jabra Move. Such a good pair of headphones, especially for the price.
How do you put your phone is your pocket? If it's upside down, like me, this is better.

Headphone jack on the bottom is way better. Both chagring and headphones on the same side of the phone is the way to go. If I hooked my GS4 up to a car that had an AUX port and to charge the phone, I would have cables going in on either end.
Ding ding ding.

One of the cars at home only has AUX. My 2014 Accord has bluetooth, which I use every time I drive. Fucking love it.

I'm in the process of ordering mine. Granted I paid a little more than I would have liked (Fuckin Scalping assholes) but I can make the money back real easy if I don't like it

Hey now... those things were godsends in connection with a Discman.

Yeah you could use it for a month and still make back more than you paid for it if you sell it.
Here's another method, I guess. A less convoluted one then what you were originally following. Doesn't involve downgrading because it's meant to be downgraded to KK (.30 OR .31), which you're already using.
This one post, redirects to another, which redirects to the necessary its for install, but the original post has a more thorough set of instructions than the second which provides install urls. It's the only other method I've come across that worked for people going from .31 firmware. It'll bump you up from KK to Lollipop, if you're okay with that.

Thought I can see it being possible consider that JD and Sharp already produce 4K display. They probably want to test run it on customer market. Sony seem easy partner to go by
headphone jack on the bottom means phone goes into your pocket upside down. Put your hand in to get phone, when you pull it out it is automatically the right way up.

Headphone jack on bottom is automatic deal breaker but cheap pieces of shit from China are instant-buys.

Too plastic-y, I like metal in my phones.
The material on the render is not the same as on the phone. OnLeaks already said it had metal frame.
More like Android-GAF.

Just found out the CHinese OP2 works fine in the UK with EE and Three but my carrier it doesn't so I'm having to pay scapler fee's because of my network
More like pleb-gaf.

Can order 9/3. Probably won't ship for a couple of weeks after that. I might order that phone too.
Nexus 5 didn't really have metal to begin with. Matte back and sides, gorilla glass. Literally all it was.
I think it looks fine, but I'll still find it awkward to hit power from the back of the device rather than the right side.
