Android phones, apps and tablets

Can anyone recommend a good case/sleeve for Nexus5 specifically with cycling in mind?

Bumper cases aren't ideal as I'd like some sort of insulation between weather/expensivephone/sweatyme when it's in a jersey rear pocket.

Google sell a neoprene sleeve for the 7 – something like that'd probably be great.

Getting the kitKat update for my nexus 4 right now.

You will be underwhelmed... Guaranteed...

And how right you are. I've never seen things like it, oh the wonder! How ever will I sleep tonight?

Has anyone used this to root their Nexus 5:

I've used CF-root Kernels as part of my escape-stock plan before, but not on a Nexus.

I've been kitkatted up since yesterday on my S3, kinda missing all the bits that had been themed and improved on jellybean. I'm not quite sure what has been made better and I'm annoyed with the nestle tie in.

Just renewed my contract and got a bit of a deal... Its now just a 30 day rolling contract and is 13 quid inc vat for 1000 minutes, unlimited texts and 1.25 gig data. Me happy. It'll be nice to be able to regularly stream things now!

I updated the N7 to kitkat. Miss flash :(

Why'd you install it if you were unaware of what it does?

Here's Tom with some pretty marketing blurb..

New innit.

So was Windows Vista at one stage.

I'm sure there was a first time for coke soaked midgets too.

Sigh. They're my favorite type of midget.

Oompa Loompas are the best kind.

Mmm, such juicy, moist flesh...

My 2013 N7 just got KitKat

Ooh, I'll go check mine now.

Nope.

Moto G
Looks a quality phone for only £130

Limitations of the camera and no G4, or SD slot - rule it out for me
but maybe not for you

Thats the 16gig one
8gig is only £99.. very tempting

How much space does the Android OS take? and will there'll be enough space?

On my ZTE blade which admittly is running 2.3 android
I have 138mb partition for the OS & 315mb for data
Then have around 11gb of apps installed on the SD card.

So 8gb will be enough but you are going to have to be selective about your apps

Following VB's lead I've just rooted the N5 and installed F-Droid and AdAway and added the someonewhocares hosts list to the defaults. Will report anything that goes squiffy.
