I'm exactly the same. I'm using the white Nexus 5 that I bought on the day of release. I recently installed Lineage OS to bring some of the newer Android features in. I don't see myself buying a new phone for quite some time.

I'm glad I'm not the only one still using a Nexus 5. My only frustration is the delay between tapping on the screen and the desired action occurring (e.g. in Google Maps). Do you find that ROMs based on newer versions of AOSP make this older hardware sluggish?

can you recommend a guide for lineage OS - I am concerned I could break my phone permanently rather than get the installation correct.
