Hi, since I cannot go to a local store and physically touch the 5T, I have a Question:
1. The Button on the right side in the middle is the power button is this correct ?
2. There is another button on the top left, that looks like a switch in the pictures on Goolge.
2.1 How does this Button work, can you put it in two positions ? Or does it automatically slide back with a spring ?
2.2 What is the default functionality of this button on the top left ?
3. The Volume Key is one single key that you can press in two directions ( Up and Down ) correct? ,
3.1 It is not possible to simulate a up + down at the same time to give it a "third" key behavior ?
The button on the top left is an alert slider that can switch between three modes, ring, do not disturb and silent. You can press volume up and down at the same time, not sure if you can bind it to a function. The button on the right is the power button.
1. Correct, that's the power button.
2. The switch is an alert slider and it has three positions. The lower position is ring, do not disturb and silent or vibrate mode.
Putting the switch on ring means you get all the regular phone rings and alerts.
Putting the switch on do not disturb puts the phone in a non ringing, non vibrating mode.
Putting the switch on silent means the phone will not ring or give you audible alerts but will still vibrate when you receive a call, text or other type of alert.
The switch does indeed stay in place where you put it until you switch it to another position. Also, you can control certain settings within do not disturb and vibrate modes. In the photos I attached you can better see what options you have for those settings.
3. The key indeed is one single button, however you can press both up and down at the same time if you want to.

Of course we know the 12 button action screen.
My question is:
Is it possible to make an action screen for which you can choose for yourself which function the buttons have?
Everydy would like to have different buttons I guess, I would like ring mode in it for example for fast switch between loud and vibration.
Design could be like the programs tab, just push on the plus sign, add a picture, add an action...
What do the developers think?
Thanks in advance!
Well, with regards to fast switching between ringtone and vibration, there is a faster and better way, just press the volume up or down key and select vibrate on the bar. Better than switching on the phone, launching the action screen and then switching between the 2 modes!
Have had this phone for 2 days now, pretty amazing but a few things I can't figure out.
1) Is there a simple way to set an automatic time for the phone to keylock? Say after 10 seconds of inactivity or something instead of having to hold down the end button everytime - Keep forgetting -. Already a few accidental calls due to this. Tried lock me lite, doesnt seem to work properly and I like the builtin lock function, just need to get it to do it by itself.
2) Is there a way to set a key where i can long press to switch from vibrate(and silent) to "normal" and vice versa? I'm already using the long end for locking the device.
Thanks, this has been bugging me since I got the phone.
After seeing this message, and not finding the answer, I wrote my own utility to do this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580050
You can configure long end to popup a menu, which includes lock, flight safe, vibrate, etc...
I'm posting a Vibra (switch) cab that will switch from vibrate to ring. I have it assigned to long send to switch back and fourth. Otherwise I just use the volume keys pretty successfully (I had this cab from my old phone that didn't have volume keys, so I wanted a button to switch it easily).

Hello,
is there a possibility to use the Hardkeys in Android?
the lower 4 (WinKey, IE Key, Mail, "OK") are used, what about the other four (call,hang up, left, right)?
Not sure what you're asking, but they are used as follows: the call (green) button brings up the phone, the left and right softkeys are volume down and up respectively, and the end (red) button hangs up when in a call and turns off the screen when not.
This is the first nexus phone I've had, so I'm still learning. On my SGS3, I could pull down the tray and tap the speaker icon to mute. Is there any way to do that on the N5x? I don't see an option to add it to the tray, but there are many times I need to do this quickly. Any advice? I haven't gotten my cables yet, so I'm still locked and unrooted.
Thanks
I've always thought the simplest way is to use the volume rocker. Hold down till vibrate. That's vibrate mode. If you don't want that then push volume rocker down one more time. It will go into a do not disturb mode that you can configure to your liking either allowing alarms only or complete silence.
hi folks,
when you pull the top menu with internet / bluettoth/plane mode etc etc, i am surprise to not see a sound icon, for turn the phone in silent mode.
How do you proceed for turn your phone in silent mode?
thank you
I am pressing one of volume buttons and then the volume menu appears where you can use the button at the top to change between modes.
thank you niksum, i thought it could be done differently via classic icons from top menu (weird that there are no sound icons... no? )
