    • Das Nexus 5 ist das erste Smartphone, das mit KitKat, der der neusten Android-Version erscheint. Es ist zwar nicht in Schokolade gehüllt, bringt aber andere köstliche Eigenschaften mit sich:

    • 4,95" full HD 1920x1080 Display mit 445ppi

    • Quad-core, 2,26 GHz Snapdragon 800 Prozessor und 450 MHz Adreno 330 GPU

    • 2 GB RAM

    • 8 MP/1080p Rückkamera mit optischer Bildstabilisation, und 1,3 MP Frontkamera

    • 4G/LTE mobiles Internet, 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac (2.4GHz and 5GHz) dual-Band Wi-Fi, NFC, Bluetooth 4.0 und kabelloses Laden

    • 16 GB oder 32 GB interner Speicher

    • Android 4.4 KitKat

    • Ausrufe der Freude erklangen aus der Teardownfabrik, als wir herausfanden, wie dieses Nexus zusammengehalten wird... und zwar mit Plastikclips!

    • Diese Clips sind zwar etwas hartnäckig, aber bei weitem nicht so nervenaufreibend, wie es eine geklebte Rückplatte wäre.

    • Agent P.O.T. (Plastic Opening Tool) wird ausgesandt, um diese ehrenhafte Mission zu übernehmen.

    • Zu früh gefreut. Entweder hat jemand hier seinen Schokosyrup verkleckert, oder die Rückschale ist doch verklebt.

    • Kleber in deinem Gerät vorzufinden ist etwa so schön wie Kaugummi auf deiner Schuhsohle zu finden.

    • Dieses bisschen Schaumkleber ist allerdings kein ernstzunehmender Gegner für unser Plastic Opening Pick. Unsere armen Bastlerseelen haben kürzlich viel schlimmeres gesehen.

    • Nachdem der Kleber beseitig ist, können wir einen ersten Blick in dieses herrliche neue Gerät werfen.

    That's not spilled chocolate syrup, its melted KitKat bars.

    • Bevor wir uns einen weiteren Bissen genehmigen, halten wir kurz inne um über der Rückseite zu brüten:

    • Wir fanden konventionell beschriftete Antennen für Wi-Fi, MIMO und GPS. Hilft uns nicht wirklich weiter, aber hey, man nimmt, was man kriegen kann.

    • Die Federkontakte der Kabel für NFC und das kabellose Laden (Kabel für kabelloses Laden, hehe), sind nicht so gut gekennzeichnet, aber sie sind vorhanden und erkennbar.

    • Der Vibrationsmotor ist nur mit ein wenig Klebstoff an der Rückabdeckung befestigt. Das macht es sehr einfach, ihn auszutauschen, falls dein Telefon sich nicht mehr schütteln kann.

    • Wie viele Schrauben versperren uns den Weg in das Nexus 5?

    • Egal wie viele, mit unserem Pro Tech Screwdriver Set kommen wir überall rein!

    Are those metal disc magnets in the back cover or perhaps mount points for a magnetic Qi Charger like the Palm Touchstones? That's what the Nexus 4 was missing, and the Orb Wireless charger couldn't hold onto the N4 to save its life.

    Adam B - Antwort

    Can you give the dimensions of the battery please?

    Los Ma - Antwort

    I'd like to know if the four disks are magnets as well!

    Kelly Wise - Antwort

    Can someone please tell me what size the ten identical screws are please, can't find the answer anywhere.

    ross - Antwort

    According to this user guide they should be 4 mm Phillips #00 screws

    Sam Goldheart -

    Thanks. Wow, a guide with actual information that's not trying to be funny every other bullet point.

    social -

    • Google tut uns wirklich einen Gefallen: Der Klebstoff reicht gerade aus, damit der Akku nicht rausfällt, er kann aber dennoch mit ein klein wenig Hebelarbeit herausgeholt werden.

    • Andere Hersteller aufgepasst! Wir wollen euren "Das kriegst du nicht raus" Quatsch nicht, wenn es um Klebstoff in Elektrogeräten geht nicht!

    ALL manufacturers, take note, WE DON'T WANT *ANY GLUE* IN OUR PHONES!

    Maxim R - Antwort

    Soldered buttons are no-go too!

    Alexander Tatevyan -

    just FYI I own 2014 Nexus 5 (bought directly from Google Play a month ago) and I got no adhesive glue on my back panel.

    Michael - Antwort

    On the Nexus 5 I just tried to fix, the adhesive is pretty solid ! I did puncture the battery. It is now dangerous and the battery should be replaced with a new one.

    Christophe De Wolf - Antwort

    It would be helpful to label the NFC and Qi wireless charging spring contacts. I've read multiple reviews from buyers of refurbed Nexus 5s that state the wireless charging doesn't work until they gently press down on the back working up towards the camera and -- snap! Something snaps into place, and the Qi flows as it should. ;) I can't quite tell from the images what is snapping into place on the back. :(

    • LGs 3,8 V, 2300 mAh Akku bietet von der Kapazität her eine kleine Verbesserung zum Nexus 4 letztes Jahr.

    • Google rühmt sich damit, dass sie dir einen Zuckerrausch für 17 Stunden Sprechzeit, 300 Stunden Standby oder 7 Stunden LTE Webbrowsing verschaffen werden.

    • Wir sind ziemlich sicher, dass dieser Warnhinweis uns davor warnen soll, dass es nicht sicher ist, den Akku irgendwo in der Nähe von Haustieren zu platzieren, die kleiner als der Akku sind.

    Any chance we'll be able to find a higher capacity battery to fit this space?

    Eoin Murphy - Antwort

    Would an LG G2 battery fit in this bad boy?

    Robert Santiago - Antwort

    it will not, the LG battery is 7mm longer

    Doug Lynch -

    Whoa! The dog/battery icon is cute, but wth is that swastika-looking thing for?

    Eric Blankenhorn - Antwort

    Do you know of any off-the-shelf battery that would fit in this slot and would work with the Nexus 5?

    • Zeit, uns ein Stück von diesem KitKat Telefons abzubrechen!

    • Den Lautsprecher rauszunehmen, war alles andere als umständlich. Er ist lediglich mit ein paar Schrauben und komplett ohne Kabel befestigt. Es handelt sich um den standard Nexus Einzellautsprecher, trotz des Doppelgitters davor.

    • Das Nexus will uns allerdings auch nicht vorgaukeln, einen Stereolautsprecher zu haben - hinter dem zweiten Gitter verbirgt sich nämlich das Mikrofon. Keine Sorge, dazu kommen wir auch noch.

    Can it be modded to have dual speakers? What is in place of the second speaker grill?

    Abul Kasam - Antwort

    I really wish there was a compatible speaker that we could replace this one with. It sounds terrible. No, worse than terrible! Anyone know of one that would work? Thanks.

    • Wir haben das Oompa-Loompa-farbene Daughterboard befreit, und es birgt mehr Überraschungen als der Osterhase:

    • Microfon

    • RGB-Anzeigeleuchte

    • Micro-USB Anschluss

    • Lautsprecher-Federkontakte

    • Antennen-Federkontakte

    Can the microUSB port be replaced easily, by yourself? Or is it, idk, glued to the board or something?

    Shiv Gunter - Antwort

    Glued? It's soldered.

    tjt263 -

    MicroUSB port is connected to USB controller. Where can I find info about (model of) USB controller? What bandwidth of USB bus (maximum possible speedrate)?

    bartgopnik - Antwort

    The right part of my daughter board is stuck. Is is glued? I'm afraid I have to replace it, because my microphone isn't working well.

    Joost Adolfs - Antwort

    Did you get it off?

    What's the difference between the International (D821) & North American (D820) charging circuits?

    • Nicht ganz so lecker wie eine Zuckerstange, aber dafür umso nützlicher, macht unser Spudger das Entfernen des Motherboards einfacher, als einem Kind den Lutscher zu stibitzen.

    • Schnell lösen wir Steuerungseinheit für das kabellose Laden und das NFC-Board ab. LG hat dieses kleine Board in eine EMI Abschirmung gebaut, die direkt auf dem Motherboard sitzt.

    • Die Form erinnert uns ein wenig an diese praktische KitKat-Karte

    • NFC ist die Technologie hinter Google Wallet, einem der gleichzeitig beliebtesten meist geblockten Features.

    • Schau an!: der Broadcom BCM20793M NFC Controller.

    • Auch mit an Bord: Texas Instruments BQ51013B Qi 1.1 konformer, kabelloser Leistungsempfänger.

    Remove the SIM tray before pulling out the motherboard to avoid breaking the edge of the frame where the SIM tray slot is.

    • Asahi Kasei AK8963 elektronischer Kompass mit 3-Achsen.

    Also the pressure sensor is visible here. Maybe worth to mention the tiny metal guy with the hole. :-)

    • Qualcomm QFE1100 Envelope Tracking-IC

    Soldered buttons??? Excuse me, but this is bullshit! It is a well-known fact, that those parts break easily. So, one would need to replace the WHOLE motherboard in case of button malfunction (at least, not everyone is familiar with soldering technique). Both thumbs down for such a poor design!

    Alexander Tatevyan - Antwort

    Does anyone know what the small black and round component is just above (in this picture) the sim-slot? I poked a pin into the phone to remove the SIM but it went past the lever and into this mystery component and damaged it.

    • Als nächstes ist die 8MP Rückkamera an der Reihe.

    • Google wurde scharf kritisiert für die wenig eindrucksvollen Fotos in den süßigkeitenbetriebenen Geräten über die letzten Jahre. Dieses Jahr fügten sie optische Bildstabilisierung hinzu, aber wir wissen auch nicht mehr.

    • Die Bildstabilisierung des Nexus 5 erfolgt durch ein InvenSense IDG-2020 Doppelachsen-Gyroskop.

    This is not a MEMS camera. It doesn't look anything like the mems camera... http://www.extremetech.com/wp-content/up...

    Steve Garon - Antwort

    The Nexus 5 most definitely has no MEMS camera, this was crazy reporting by some blogs based on early leaks about the Sony sensor the Nexus 5 uses.

    Andreas Proschofsky - Antwort

    So what is the camera sensor? What's its crop factor vs 35mm, pixel size and sensor size? What's min/max aperture and ISO? Does anyone have a reliable spec sheet?

    Bottomline, isn't it amazing that weeks after launch we're still seeing all different rumours about MEMS or not, but not even the basic confirmed form factor dimensions?

    • Wir nehmen die letzten Happen aus dem Nexus 5 heraus:

    • Ohrhörer-Lautsprecher

    • Kopfhöreranschluss

    • 1,3 MP Frontkamera.

    • Was für ein Leckerbissen! Diese Komponenten waren alle modular und nur leicht klebrig, ganz nach unserem Bastlergeschmack.

    In the first image of step 13, what is that small grey piece that sits along the top edge that is next to the small hole in the case edge?

    Dean - Antwort

    It's just a channel to direct sound from the mic hole in the case to the mic on the daughterboard.

    Sanya Rajan - Antwort

    Can you replace the Earpiece speaker with just removing the Step 9? The Earpiece speaker broke when I droped my phone.

    • Auf diese große tolle Überraschung folgt eine herbe Enttäuschung: Das Display ist ein einziger, fest zusammengelöteter Klumpen.

    • Weil wir das selbe schon im Nexus 4 sahen, hatten wir die leise Hoffnung, das LG/Google Team hätte aus seinen Fehlern gelernt...

    • Leider sind Frontrahmen, LCD, und das Glas dazu verdammt, eines Tages gemeinsam den Weg ins Candy Land nehmen zu müssen, sollte einer von ihnen ausfallen.

    • Stell dir vor, du würdest bei einem faulen Zahn gleich dein komplettes Gebiss verlieren. Ziemlich schwer zu verdauen.

    • In der Mitte des Displays ist ein Synaptics S3350B IC versteckt, der die Touchscreenbedienung ermöglicht.

    does the screen have any SPR(self panel refresh) technology? aka GRAM like the G2. and why are there make and model numbers for most other parts but we dont know the make or model of the screen/panel?

    Doug Lynch - Antwort

    This is an LG phone.

    LG is the largest(or close to) LCD manufacturer in the world.

    Why would this panel be made by anybody else. :)

    Maxim R -

    FWIW, I *was* able to separate the LCD from the housing on my device with a broken screen (I ordered the wrong replacement part from etrade -- oops!). Unfortunately this required chiseling away at glued-on glass for 90 minutes over a garbage can.

    If they had chosen to use a lighter adhesive on the screen, they could have dropped the cost of screen replacements from $200 to $150.

    • Und hier die Endnote für die Reparierbarkeit des Nexus 5: 8 von 10 (10 ist die beste Reparierbarkeit).

    • Ein sehr modulares Design erlaubt das Austauschen mehrerer leicht abzunutzende Teile - wie z.B. des Kopfhöreranschlusses oder der Lautsprecher.

    • Der Akku ist nur leicht eingeklebt, was ein Austauschen sehr einfach macht.

    • Standardschrauben (zehn identische Kreuzschlitzschrauben #00) machen das Öffnen und Wiederverschließen recht einfach.

    • Die Rückabdeckung ist mit Plastikclips befestigt. Etwas hartnäckig zu entfernen, allerdings einfacher als Kleber.

    • Das Glas und LCD sind mit dem Displayrahmen verschmolzen. Ein gesprungenes Glas auszutauschen wird entweder sehr teuer oder sehr schwierig.

It looks like the old assembled desk top PC, with lot of connectors and ICs, each dedicated functional IC's, with lot many juggler connectors,

dvg234 - Antwort

Step 6

Why add any thickness of a label over that battery when the battery would never be seen after manufacturing sealed it in? That would be like putting a label over every IC in the phone.

ldunbarl - Antwort

does it have ir blaster? i want that nexus 5 comes with ir blaster :( i think it doesnt have ir blaster :(

Licenciado Nexus - Antwort

There is no IR blaster, but ridiculously, Kitkat has native support for it. Sometimes I really don't understand Google; Nexus line is supposed to be a dev phone, so why they decided to cut down the IR blaster, when there is software for it, is a big mystery...

Alexander Tatevyan -

The phone comes with a back hoop with a pin to release the SIM card. I stupidly stuck this in the tiny hole at the top of the Nexus 5 that I believe is actually a secondary microphone. I was wondering, using your dismantled phone, if you stick the black pin into the hole can you tell whether it damages the microphone?

Matt Williams - Antwort

Could it be possible to change SDIN8DE4‐16G to SDIN8DE4‐32G? Both hardware and software wise, so it is able to boot. Thus getting 32GB storage instead of 16GB.

Uldis Seglins - Antwort

I have a similar question.. want to use 64 GB on the 32 model. Is this possible?

Jayendran Ramani -

It appears this chip is physically soldered to the PCB - if you had a machine to remove and replace a BGA from it without damage to other components nearby (such as a Martin Expert 10.6 or similary), you should theoretically have the ability to swap it with any other size memory with the same footprint and input/output pins.

Chris Villareale -

Great guide. I wonder if you have an opinion about the speaker issue and the XDA mod with the 5? One of the features you take for granted in a phone is its sound quality. Everybody oohs and aahs about screen size and processor speed, but a seemingly insignificant and overlooked component, such as a speaker, can ruin a device. Do you think a software update can fix this, or should I consider the XDA mod.

jamieFL - Antwort

Where can I get the tools you have used? Can you please provide links?

Thank you.

Jayendran Ramani - Antwort

Make sure to press not only the side tabs back in place when putting it back together but the middle also.

I put mine back together and my wireless charging stopped working. once I ran my fingers through the middle of the phone in a pressing motion moving from bottom and working my way up, I heard a click and then the wireless charging started working again.

you will notice if that tab is not in all the way because the back bubbles and if you poke it you see it give a little

Jose Rivas - Antwort

Jose Rivas, You're a life saver... i had the problem you mentioned after opening my Nexus5 to do the GPS fix procedure, and after that was unable to use NFC... while searching for a solution, yours came very handy as indeed i had the missing middle click. Just followed your simple instructions and the phone was once again working as it should!! Thanks, mate.

Gemini Gem -

Thanks, I was going crazy after the wireless charging stopped, thought I messed something up. Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!Thanks! Thanks!Thanks! Thanks!

YDC -

I feared the NFC chip was broken after I repaired the screen. Your tip restores its function !!! Many thanks!!

Klaas De Smedt -

Thanks for the tip! I have yet to try it out (only have one android in here), but I believe that "middle click" has fixed the NFC on my Nexus 5.

Frederico Flores -

Should have read your comment first! Would have saved me an hour....

Lawrence Lau -

Happened across this by sheer chance, and now I don't have to take my phone back to the repair shop to ask them what they broke! I will tell them about this though :)

Paul Crowley -

I brought my N5 to a cell repair shop to replace a cracked screen and replace the battery. Upon return the Qi wireless charging stopped working. I called back the shop and they didn't know how to fix it and thought something from the battery was lost. THANKS Jose!! I just followed your instructions, heard the click, and charging works again!

Wayne Lin -

As of what I have heard, the battery life on the Nexus is pretty poor.

Is it possible to replace the battery for a longer lasting one?

James Whitehead - Antwort

The nexus 5 is an masterpiece but Google and lg have let it and there customers Down

I would love to add another speaker

Maybe a 2900 MHz battery

And a 13mega pix camera

tanny bashir -

Just wonder, how do Google knows if I open up their phone?

halloween88 - Antwort

Also, if after disassembly the vibration stops working press/rub down in the middle of the back plate until it snaps into place to get the vibration motor connected again.

jaimevisser - Antwort

I just created an account just so I could say thank for stating this. I dropped my phone and the motor was working funny - acted like it was attached to a dying battery where it would vibrate strong at first when typing but the intensity would slowly die as if a battery was draining. I pushed in the middle of the case, heard it pop back into place, and now it works like nothing ever happened!

I have been using this mobile for 4 months and its one of its kind. It is an excellent device, with stunning display, nice graphics and awesome power. And it offers pure Android experience and I even installed the Android L developers version which runs perfectly on my device. The only problem I faced with device is about setting custom ringtone. I found the procedure about how to set ringtone in this link and it worked perfectly, http://www.spinfold.com/set-ringtone-in-...

Naresh Landam - Antwort

When prising of the back panel, the adhesive at the bottom was really strong and some of the metal strip on the outside of the speaker module has come away. Any one know what it's connected to? Mic or speaker? (it's the less wiggly one of the two!)

Chris Wellings - Antwort

I replaced my Nexus 5 screen, but there is now a hole in the front of the phone where the front facing camera is. If any water gets in this hole then it could do damage.

What have I done wrong when rebuilding it? and how can i fix it? Thanks

BE CAREFUL!

When using this teardown, please note, the author misses listing screws, adhesive, plastic spacers and housings. After several re-teardowns I have finally managed to get all the old pieces (including the buttons) from the old frame/screen to the new.

dark2400 - Antwort

Then why not take some pics and update the steps with your discovered oversights?! Telling us "Here There Be Errores" does no one any good. Harumph.

David Spalding -

That's because a teardown is a tour of the hardware, not a how-to guide. If you want a guide, check the main page.

Jeff Suovanen -

Ok!! I dropped my Nexus 5 , which I keep in Tech21 protective case, into the toilet yesterday morning. Yes, I was pinching a loaf and this was not how I wanted to start my day. The phone was under 6 inches of water, and feces, for at least 20 seconds. I used your guide to disassemble, clean with 95% alcohol, and reassemble my Nexus 5. When I plugged the phone to charge the battery light came on for a few seconds and then went dark and this cycle was repeated. I thought I needed a new battery so I ordered a replacement last night. This morning I thought it wise to remove the battery in case there was moisture while waiting for replacement. When I opened the back, removed the 10 screws, took the speaker out, and the cover that covers the battery connector BAMMM! I, immediately, realized the connector to the battery was not connected to the power supply!!!!!!I reattached the connector and made sure it was secure, reassembled the Nexus 5, plugged it in and saw the battery had a 62% charge!!!!! Thanks 4 guide!

Right so my Nexus 5 is from LG Electronics Japan and the screws on the camera cover are like a Y shape but is the same size screws as yours please can someone help me and link the right screwdriver PLEASE!!!

Arkie - Antwort

It's called a Trigram, Tri-Wing, or Y-Tip. Not difficult to find online or at your local hardware store. They're often included in interchangeable screwdriver tip assortments.

tjt263 -

I have a problem, I changed the flex wire and the battery and now it doesn't charge. It works perfectly except it doesn't charge. I tried to reassemble again all parts and still the same issue. Do you know what could be ?

When switched on, icon shows it's charging but status says it's not :S

I need to try the wireless charging and see if this fixes the issue, otherwise I am afraid I need to change the phone :(

My nexus 5 vibrates but no display... tried replacing display, no improvement... Help me out with other possible fix or problems leading to it...

Tanzeel Iqbal - Antwort

Thank you for sharing this guide!

Last night my nexus 5 drowned.

after drying it from outside i tried to turn it on - it hadn't had the ability to use the touch screen and after i turned it off and on again the screen was dead.

using this guide i open and surprisingly realized that all the inside parts were covered with water - including the sim , the CPU and the battery...

i tear it down completely dry all the parts with a dry towel and left it in rice over the night.

after assembly it in the morning and going over with a cleaning brush (the rice seems to have some white dust) . i said some prayers ,held my fingers and turn it on. it woke up perfectly and there seems to be no problems so far - the screen, the Bluetooth , wifi, GPS, Sim and all the rest are working fine. thanks a lot!

Hi, I just had my screen replaced and now my vibrator that is attached to the back panel keeps popping out of the hole in the PCB. How can I fix this? Do I need some adhesive? Where do I put the adhesive at? TIA!

I am wondering what component(s) control the display because my phone has been water damaged however the logic board seems to work fine with buzzing when I boot it up and chimes if a unplug the charger but the screen won't even light up. I am convinced the screen is working because I plugged in a different logic board and the screen lights up fine. So my conclusion is that there is something wrong with whatever Controls the display on the logic board. This brings me back to my original question what components on the logic board control the display and is there any way to replace them?
