Google Nexus 5 Prototype Leaks

An image and specifications of a Nexus 5 prototype have been leaked online, according to Android and Me.

The source claims to be a Google employee and says the prototype is for real, but the site hasn't been able to confirm if it's genuine or not. "There is a good chance that some basement dweller is trolling us hard, but this person has an interesting story so we thought it needed to be shared." - Android and Me.


The Nexus 5 will be released in October and could be made by LG. Google is apparently considering prototypes from other phone manufacturing companies. If LG is selected it would be the first time that Google has partnered with the same manufacturer consecutively.

The Nexus 5 should bring with it a new version of Android, codenamed Key Lime Pie.

Unlocking to be Legalized in the USA!

A bipartisan coalition of senators this week introduced legislation that would lift the current ban on consumers unlocking their cellphones without permission from their carriers.

The bill, which was proposed by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and cosponsored by Sens. Al Franken (D-Minn.), Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) and Mike Lee (R-Utah), would let users unlock their cellphones after completing all service agreements with their wireless carrier.

The proposed legislation comes less than two weeks after the White House signaled its support for an online petition urging the government to reverse a decision made by the Librarian of Congress last fall to deny consumers the right to unlock their phones and bring them to different carriers.


***Unlocking is the removal of SIM restrictions on the modem, allowing the use of the Phone on any carrier. The main reason to unlock your iPhone is if you want to use it with a different service provider.***
