So, I finally seem to have gotten around to discovering the problem with my N5.

Apparently, there is a conflict between the script below, reported in this and other forums, and Morph Browser. The script is used to increase the overall font size displayed on the phone. It's very useful, since at the moment there is no way to increase the size of the GUI fonts, which are very small to read—at least for me, they are.

The script is called gu.conf, and is placed in /home/phablet/.config/upstart/gu.conf

This is its content. The pixel number can be changed at leisure.

start on starting dbus
exec initctl set-env --global GRID_UNIT_PX=27

It looks like that the variable set here doesn't go down too well with Morph Browser.
Removing or commenting out the script restores the functionality to Morph Browser.

That's all I found.

After the latest updates, Morph-Browser doesn't start anymore on Hammerhead.

I got this error on syslog each time I try and launch it:

Seems to be related to Libertine, but I have no container installed.

Anybody knows how to get rid of it?

Thanks.

@juangrodeja Thanks. Apparently, my problem is WiFi not resuming saved sessions and continuously creating new ones for the same network.

@juangrodeja Hello.

Could you please post a copy of the exact text in your configuration for the benefit of all? There is no way I can make a static wi-fi address work on my phone.

Thanks.

Sent an e-mail. Thanks.

Hello.

I am no programmer, so my contribution to the forum is risible.
I, however, have tweaked a few images for the Nexus 5.

Namely:

— I have replaced the "Google" text and lock icon appearing when powering the phone on.
— I have tweaked the bootloader screen images as you can see below.

Splash screen.

Fastboot "Start" option.

Fastboot "Recovery" option.

Fastboot "Power off" option.

Fastboot "Bootloader" option.

Charging image when phone is off.
Unfortunately, I coudn't change the charge bars into something integrated to the main image—I don't know where those are stored.

To install or test:

— Images are uploaded to the phone via fastboot using Img Data Tool v 1.3.2 found at XDA Developers.

Basically, you replace the images extracted from the stock "before" imgdata.img with the ones I tweaked here—copy entire folder content, including pos.txt file, which contains the images' coordinates—before recreating a new-imgdata.img to be flashed to the Nexus 5.

— For the bold and the reckless, here's the imgdata.img file already packed and ready to be flashed to the Nexus 5 through the fastboot flash imgdata imgdata.img command.

It's still a first attempt, but I think it gives the phone a more professional look.
