don't waste your money. the phones die and won't recharge or boot up. lg will not back it up. and offer only to look at the phone and it takes up to 2 weeks in which time they don't provide a replacement phone and won't guarantee that they will fix it. also they won't pay for shipping.

Hey guys, my LG Nexus 5X motherboard burnt because of bootloop problem few months ago, but I still had warranty, so I got repaired it for free. But I have another question - even the motherboard was changed, do you think bootloop problem is solved by updates? Or do you think it's worth to sell this phone, before the warranty expires?
Or should I install something from xda forum to improve this phone's life duration?

I am a serious fan of Nexus. I started using with Nexus 2 when it started with LG. step by step i have used all the hand sets which nexus brought to the market. Now presently am using a Nexus 5 and a Nexus 5x. Two days back my Nexus 5X shut down due to boot loop. and here local engineers already declared the cell phone as a dead one. I am very sad due to this reason.

Jolene, 14 Dec 2017Hello everyone, I have Nexus 5x for about one year. I had the same prob with bootloop and luck... moreI recommend to disable the big cores of the phone's Cpu, the big cores are faulty (Gets very hot) and that caused the bootloop, won't matter if you change the motherboard, it will happen. There are many tutorials in XDA and YouTube about turning off the A57 cores.

LG Nexus 5x is the worst phone I have ever seen.
Google integration with LG seems to be a disaster.
Motherboard got damaged within a Year and this problem was faced by almost all Nexus 5x handset since the OS got upgraded to Nougat.
My recommendation would be never ever go for LG Nexus series

Hello everyone, I have Nexus 5x for about one year. I had the same prob with bootloop and luckily my phone was on the warranty, so they replaced the motherboard for free.
I just opened my phone and I want to ask if its necessary to update Adroid Oreo 8.0. I am a bit scared because I read that it will cause problems to the phone, the camera etc. What do you recommend to me?
Thanks!

I have a LG Nexus 5x and recently my phone faced the same issue that many users all over the world have faced, that is the now infamous "Bootloop". It simply switched off and all my attempts to boot it, have failed. The response from LG is very disappointing. LG service centre says that to fix this issue motherboard needs to be replaced and I have to pay for it.
I am not convinced to pay for an issue that LG has acknowledged is a software + hardware issue with their product. LG should repair it free of cost.
After all, we are talking about a global and reputed company that is LG and they should be a bit more empathetic to their customers.

I bought the LG Nexus 5X on May 2016. I loved the phone and its performance. Was really happy on having it, only till August 2017. The phone started flashing Google n was dead. It worked while it was charged but that lasted just hours n now its a brick to eternity. Tried the LG customer care but i over-ran the warranty period it seems. Such a shame that i invested in LG. And now thats the end to the big LG. Thankyou so much for the loss of my money.

Got mine for almost two years now, december to be exact, and still got excellent performance, i use a caseology casing and the my nexus 5x is still brand new to look at, I guess that do not abuse your phone, some tweaked them and some uses software flashers which causes maybe bootloop after WARRANTY EXPIRES. Absurd.
