And I restored my stock TW, and nope, still broken. Only thing I could do is disable the proximity sensor entirely.
Until Samsung realizes to make their OS with better style than a teenage girl from the 80s, I'll take any bugs of AOSP. HTF is the stock rom over 2 GB??? The new sense is much cleaner, or LG's or Motorola's skin.

Why would you sell it before the contract expires by the way; because of the defective sensor ?

Edit : sensor is still needed to turn the screen off when you bring the phone close to your ear during a call

Correct. In my case, if turns off when I put near my ear during a call....but refuses to turn back on. Even pressing home/power key doens't work 80% of the time, rendering the phone almost useless during calls. I can't even hang up.

damn, that sucks. seems like there are ways to calibrate the sensor, but if it's just not working at all... I went the last month of my 4s not being able to use the sleep/wake button, then watching nervously as the Best Buy guy looked at it, saw the screen was on, the home button worked, then gave me my $200 credit on a trade in :lol

Moto X, G, and E have been well-received and mean Motorola is headed in the right direction. Hopefully the Lenovo takeover doesn't fuck them over too much.
Sony is probably the next best in terms of the quality of their phones - too bad they barely have a carrier presence (if any) in the US.

I don't know about the quality of Sony phones, but their laptops stink. Every sony laptop that i have ever come across has either an overheating problem, motherboard problem, battery problem or all of the above. I heard they sold the laptop division to some Japanese company. Toshiba is another company that should really be off the market.

Money wouldn't be the issue since I would sell the S4 im order to buy the N5
But my S4 is still running great, so I may as well just stick with it (I'll still see what the N6 looks like tho).
Only thing bothering me is that red, stuck pixel Ive had im the middle of the screen.

At the same price , I woud rather buy a flagship from LG, Kimchsung, HTCuck or Sony
The appeal of the Nexus line was its price, I'm pretty sure Google has a new deal with carriers - who were worried by the fact that more and more people are getting cheaper unlocked phones like the Nexus to avoid contracts

Why?
(Srs question tbh)
Samsung has seen and is well aware of how effective Apple is in keeping customers. This is because these customers, once fully immersed in Apple's ecosystem, have decreased motivation to abandon it for a completely new user experience.
Samsung wants to achieve that same level of customer loyalty, so they've been trying to set up their own specific ecosystem, separate from Google's, to capture those buyers of Samsung phones.
Why do this? Look at the PC and laptop market. When one company dictates the OS these OEMs put in their hardware and does not allow for variations, it becomes a race to the bottom. There's no brand loyalty in that kind of situation. Google is well-aware of this, so while they have made AOSP itself a bit more of a walled garden, they haven't and won't lock out variations entirely because they know that will drive off the OEMs and curtail the mass use of Google services that they want.
Because Google won't let its native apps be removed from Android phones without ejecting the offending OEM from the Open Handset Alliance, Samsung won't entirely succeed in creating a wholly separate ecosystem until they stop using Android, but they know that leaving the Android ecosystem entirely right now will just fuck them over, because their third-party app market just can't compete with Google Play at this point.
Overall, it's kind of a stalemate between Google and Samsung on this. Google doesn't want Samsung to leave, so they allow as much of the OS as they can to be messed around with, and Samsung wants to be independent of Google but can't yet, so they shove as much proprietary apps as they can into their Android phones and hope that sets them up further down the line.

There's no brand loyalty in that kind of situation. Google is well-aware of this, so while they have made AOSP itself a bit more of a walled garden, they haven't and won't lock out variations entirely because they know that will drive off the OEMs and curtail the mass use of Google services that they want.
Because Google won't let its native apps be removed from Android phones without ejecting the offending OEM from the Open Handset Alliance, Samsung won't entirely succeed in creating a wholly separate ecosystem until they stop using Android, but they know that leaving the Android ecosystem entirely right now will just fuck them over, because their third-party app market just can't compete with Google Play at this point.
Overall, it's kind of a stalemate between Google and Samsung on this. Google doesn't want Samsung to leave, so they allow as much of the OS as they can to be messed around with, and Samsung wants to be independent of Google but can't yet, so they shove as much proprietary apps as they can into their Android phones and hope that sets them up further down the line.

Why tbh
Crappy build quality, shipped with buggy-as-shit pre-production 5.0 software.
For a tablet costing at least $400, you'd think they'd at least have tried to make it worth that price.

To be fair, there seem to be wildly differing opinions so far, based on the summary of all available reviews to date:

The question is if Samsung will not include the new stock security features.
If they scrap that for Knox, they're setting themselves up to get ass-reamed.
