Hello Dave,

it is the 'brltty has stopped' message indeed. When I get home I will 
try to perform a logcat, however i have not yet installed the android 
SDK on my current linux system.

After my failed attempt at the Nexus 5, I decided to update the Nexus 4 
as well. This phone was using brltty 4.5 build 7XXX and worked OK, 
however after updating to the 5.0 version, the same problem as with the 
Nexus 5 occurs.

With kind regards,

Henk.
