Nexus 5x has an $80 discount today! Just bought my first Nexus! :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Rock on Brother! About time you got a Nexus. I did see it on several sites but it was the 16gb version. I found the 32gb Nexus 5 I filled up quickly

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Hopefully, it checks out fine! There's an extended warranty through late January so I'll be putting the 5x through the paces haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Welcome to the Nexus family haha. I really like the 5x, don't have too many gripes, and even though it's a step down from the s6, I feel it suites me way better. You're gonna love it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Really? You do think it's a step down? Personally if its a nexus it's a step up. Samsung/VZW is just full of bloatware

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Ah yes, I meant a step down in terms of hardware alone... But as for the overall experience the 5x wins hands down
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Oh ok. Ah to me though with all the bloatware it really downplays the effectiveness of the device itself. I absolutely love my Nexus 6

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Yep I completely agree, having all those crappy vzw apps that were useless. Plus, the s6 has some some app that reinstalled stuff you would delete.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Nice. With a VZW device I'm not surprised at all. I'm so happy to get away from them. Been liberated for almost a year now lol

Project Fi, here I come! 6P for me and 5X for my son. Been missing Nexus land since my S4G.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Joined the Nexus family today! Haven't done too much since I've had it except add a few apps. Gonna unlock the bootloader tomorrow haha already set up adb on my Mac last night.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Man unlocking was simple on the Nexus 6. I used Chainfire's cf auto root and it was done quite fast

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I bet! I want to run it stock for a few days and see what I notice. Then work my magic. I've been reading up so I should be fine.

This fingerprint sensor responds just like lightning, just like how the reviews state lol I keep picking it up just to use that!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Very nice man. Yea no fingerprint scanner on the 6. I wasn't looking for one anyways. Haha it's the small things that excite us as Nexus users

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I hear ya. Ever since my S3 power button went crazy on me for several days some time ago, I started using my home button to lessen the chances that my power button would get permanently stuck. This sensor will help with that on this 5X.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
On the s5 and s6 I eventually quit using the fingerprint scanner since it wasn't always accurate or fast, but Nexus imprint is lightning fast and works 99% of the time! It really works beautifully and is literally the best implementation there is
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
For those of you rocking the Nexus 5X the developer of cataclysm rom will be developing a version for that device as well. It's as close to stock as you will get. I highly recommend this rom as I'm rocking it on my Nexus 5 and Nexus 6. Solid rom, I've never had a reboot or any freeze ups

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
It really is awesome. Random, are you using a screen protector or keeping the display bare? I'm wondering if I should bother buying one for this phone.

Nice, the more the merrier. I'm hopeful that development picks up over time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Dang, this has become a Nexus thread. Lol im still on my G3. Amazon had the Nexus 5 for 32gb for $200 but naw. Im gonna wait till next year for a new phone. This fone still very solid, only downside is not enough development. But Jasmine stock is straight solid
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
I like my M8 too, want this for 1 more year, running like a champ still and still have expandable storage.

I do like the nexus 6p though. Really nice phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
I've only been using a Ringke Fusion case since I got the phone, but no screen protector. I actually have a tempered glass one sitting that I got for 95¢ on Amazon, but I've been too lazy to put it on haha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Haha totally fine. I'm waiting on a Verus case to get here next week. My phone needs some protection, given my line of work. I'm not too sold on getting a screen protector as of yet though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
You two are crazy. I'd surely break the screen as I'm accident prone lol

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
If you do happen to get one, make sure it has a proximity sensor cut out. I've seen people complaining about the screen not coming on when on a call because it doesn't have a cut out. I would think manufacturers fixed it by now but ya never know.

haha i just need to put it on already, but I always seem to find something 'better' to do lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Yea I hear you. I can't put any screen protectors on at home because we have animals and there is hair everywhere.

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Good look. I just purchased a Pleson tempered glass protector. Should be here in a couple days. Seems to have solid reviews in the XDA thread. On the Amazon listing, I noticed the Spigen glass protector covers the FFC so I went with this Pleson one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
So Android Pay stopped working for some reason, so I decided what the hell and flashed Pure Nexus. Liking it so far, got Xposed installed too. Love being back with all these options [emoji1]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Were you rooted prior to it not working?

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Yeah I was stock rooted. Used chainfire's system less root
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Yea android pay doesn't work with a rooted device. Yea i used Chainfire's cf auto root. Easy and simple

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
It works if you don't modify /system which is exactly why I used systemless root. It worked twice after rooting and then stopped, so not sure why
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Android pay don't work with rooted, due to security reasons. I remember ShapesBlue posting that link.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
After a quick read it looks like there may have been an update with Android pay that closed a loophole with the system less root. I actually hadn't heard of this new method but looks promising

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Ahh, my case arrived! Now I can have some peace of mind when using my phone in public or at work. Not sure I could be one of those guys who rocks a phone without a case very often.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
It's possible there was an update, because when I used Android Pay 2 weeks ago, it worked fine.

Nice! Yeah I think I went one day without a case and treated it like a new born haha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I have 8 cases currently for my beast. I have another one coming today. Think I'm done for quite awhile lol

I ended up getting 4 of them on sale at Amazon. Paid $10 and change total for the 4 of them.

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Haha I hear ya! Btw these trollouts by Google are crazy, over the weekend I received an update for Android Pay that's dated from Nov. 2nd. Maybe that ruined it for rooted users?

With your 5X case, how do the volume buttons feel? Cuz mine feel too soft, as in I don't get that feeling that I'm changing the volume even though it is. Almost makes the volume buttons feel like they are stuck in the phone, if that makes sense.

That's a lot of cases Shapes! Haha I usually buy two or three cases throughout my time with a phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I couldn't pass up that deal with the 4 cases for $10 and change. That was quite the good deal. The other ones I paid no more than $7 each

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
They're definitely a little bit soft, but not to the point where I can't feel it click. I feel like they are just about perfect.

Apparently we are supposed to get a new update with some new emojis soon, hear about that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Update for?

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
I believe it's just the monthly security updates Google is putting out, except this one will include some new emojis
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Oh ok. I'm running a custom rom so I'll probably be excluded from it unless the dev updates the rom

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Hmm, I'll see how they respond over the next few days. Hopefully the sensitivity is short term.

Welp, fiddling with the case and volume buttons caused my phone to reboot after 100 hours of uptime lol I was trying to go a week without rebooting to see if I would run into the all mighty "performance issues" plaguing the 5X but it wasn't meant to be. So.....I went ahead and unlocked my bootloader for the heck of it lol fairly painless using adb on my MBP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Yep unlocking is cake! You gonna stay stock or go with a ROM already? I figured the only thing holding me back was Android Pay, which no longer worked, so I went with pure Nexus
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I'm going to stay stock through the weekend, maybe another week or two. Just trying to nail down my average battery life. Going to take things somewhat slow. I definitely need to make a stock rooted TWRP backup soon though. Ads are annoying to me lol can't stay stock with ads for too much longer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Yeah ads are killer haha adblock for the win. Glad they got xposed working for marshmallow, I missed having so many modules to choose from
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Ha, that's what's up! I gotta admit, I am still a bit surprised that I got adb working so easily on here. Looking forward to my time with the 5X now. Just gotta conquer small hurdles at a time, I want to manually flash a stock image at some point.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Yeah I actually just flashed the stock MDB08M image. I flashed something wrong last week and got a message about my internal storage being corrupted haha oops. But being a Nexus, it was of course super easy to fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I'd suggest pure Nexus or even cataclysm (when it's available)

Edit: [MENTION=4959456]thesoldier[/MENTION], I forgot to reply about the latest 5X update. Yea, all Nexus devices are receiving 6.0.1 right now. Basically just emojis and it's also the December security update as well for the 5X. I downloaded the factory image from Google earlier but I have yet to flash it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Close to a month now. I'm loving it. Got a new case this morning (my last one lol) and loving it. Here's what it looks like https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00O...QL70&keywords=supcase+nexus+6+case&th=1&psc=1

[MENTION=3576831]SlimSnoopOS[/MENTION] good seeing you all over the 5x forums haha. I see Chroma was updated to 6.0.1 and is now claiming Android Pay works! Might have to give it a try next if that's true
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Chroma seems like a solid rom. I tried it on my N6 prior to going back to cataclysm. I know my way around cataclysm so hence why I switched to it

:confused: so I flash the 5x factory image and everything goes successfully but notice my data connects sometimes after boot and doesn't on other boots. I check the md5 via Terminal and md5 mismatch. I download multiple times via Safari....all mismatches. Paused adblock, md5 mismatch. Huh? It keeps outputting:

MD5 (/Users/Moi/Downloads/bullhead-mmb29k-factory-a5eaf715.tar) = 235abd80b00d2dbd2fc695e4e6903326

I'll post back after figuring this out. Gotta get my 5X signal working proper so I'll try downloading with Chrome. Phone boots proper but idk why the md5 consistently mismatches.

Edit: via Safari downloads, sometimes there are .tgz files, others they are downloaded as .tar files. Weird, right?

the one i got is older version so i can use any K-cup :D

my brother got the 32GB white version http://slickdeals.net/f/8315395-64gb-motorola-nexus-6-unlocked-smartphone-260-free-s-h

he ask if i can to root it for him. what comes with the phone in pure stock??? lot of bloatware??? i havent even look into the Nexus 6 thread to see if theres a script or stock rom debloated version
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Well, I switched to Chrome and the 6.0.2 .tgz has a proper matching md5 which is good. So I flashed that and my data works fine and enables for a few reboots, roughly 15 reboots if I had to guess. I'm trying to see if I can replicate the issue before I decide I am satisfied this is resolved. Everything else seems to work fine, you know?

lmao...but real talk, what do you think about my post? It seems like the phone runs fine with everything else. Just seems there's a 1 reboot where data doesn't connect until I toggle airplane mode but I can still send a text.

Edit: I think I'm going to see what the community says about this 6.0.1 update. I doubt my radio is messed up, since it works. Plus, I noticed a growing thread in the 6P forums with LTE issues after the 6.0.1 update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Honestly that's extremely weird. I haven't flashed 6.0.1 yet so I haven't had any experience with it yet. I would try flashing the old radio and see if it still does it, to try and rule out the radio being an issue. What about your APNs, are they setup correctly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Yea I've been seeing weird issues across the board with the N6 as well. Not quite ready to jump to 6.0.1 just yet either

Sent from my Nexus 6

---------- Post added at 03:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 AM ----------

Nope I bought the older version the k10 mini plus one. It's super easy to root. I didn't stay on stock more than 24 hours so I can't for sure tell you if it's bloated or not. Chainfire's cf auto root works well and is quite easy also. I highly recommend either chroma or cataclysm as far as roms go

They are default, dun, supl and the protocol and roaming protocol are iPv4/IPv6. Bearer has everything selected except Unspecified, all three EVDO items, 1xRTT, IS95B and IS95A. I'll wait and see if others have issues on 6.0.1 cuz there are those with issues on 6p.

Yea, it is what it is. Just going to enjoy the phone for a bit haha

Can't you? I was under the impression you still had full root, just through a different method, it doesn't modify the /system partition to achieve root
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I guess I don't completely understand then. What's the point of systemless root if the name says it all. I was under the impression it doesn't touch the system partition

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
It doesn't touch /system to achieve root so that future OTAs will be easy to get. You still have full root and modify system if you wish
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Oh ok. Interesting to say the least. Most of those who root don't typically care about OTAs. In a way it's kind of the reason for rooting is to block the OTA from installing. At least that's what I use to think anyways

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
For a non Nexus device I'd say yeah, you'd wanna block OTAs, but with Nexus devices, some people like to stay stock rooted but still be able to take updates, which this is perfect for.

Very true. I'm not one for OTAs however, I prefer custom roms. Been spoiled on every device I've had so far

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
One thing I like about this Nexus is that where I live, I'd get low 3G signal on older phones, but I have superb LTE with the 5X. I'm stunned at the improved signal quality. That alone makes me not want to drop back down to the S3. I didn't think it was possible to have great signal at my house.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dawgdoc:
I have read where some will go with systemless root for this reason, but without thinking it through edit build.prop and install apps like busybox as system apps. Thereby breaking systemless.

Hey [MENTION=3576831]SlimSnoopOS[/MENTION] I flashed Pure Nexus 6.0.1 yesterday, and elementalX today, and I just booted with no signal. Airplane mode toggle fixed it. 6.0.1 issue maybe?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
There is one I'd highly recommend, elemental X. I don't see the others I'd suggest in the forums for the 5X so I can't suggest those

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
That's the one I intended to try out. I just need to wrap my head around system vs. system-less root and I'm good. I'll get that out the way as I watch Golden State play Milwaukee haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
As far as I know, systemless root is still experimental and isn't necessary unless you absolutely need system untouched, such as for Android Pay
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Which version of SuperSU are you using btw? I feel like 2.52 is the recommended version for full system root (what I'm aiming for).

Edit: Never mind, that's a misinterpretation from reading the 5X guide. I'm about to put on v2.62. Just want to make a nandroid first.

Edit #2: Got TWRP and Elemental X installed, boom shakalaka.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Suhweeeeeet. There's a feature called touch boost which boosts the processor speed when you touch the screen, and elementalX has an option to disable it to save some battery. So far I've seen no performance issues since disabling it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Yup, I made sure to disable that last night! haha it's running smooth so far, no issues here either. I also enabled Sweep to Sleep through his app. On the stock rom, I was missing the Double tap Status Bar to Sleep gesture from Lollipop and KitKat roms. I think I like this gesture more.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
I like it better too. He also found a way to get DT2W but apparently it's like the Nexus 5 where it causes battery drain :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I have the DT2W on my N6. I don't think it causes battery drain on this as far as I know

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
According to flar2, the battery drain is due to the way the panel and touchscreen are setup on the 5 and 5X.
