we... again not all nexus 6 is flawed and motorola is quite efficient in replacing devices...I know samsung will never even entertain warranty on battery issues

yes there are quite a few issues but nexus is nexus and is backed by google so it will have good support

even ppl are bashing samsung on their over saturated screens....so again no hardware is flawless and if any manufacturer is willing to replace we are good to go

read s6 threads ppl already started complaining on their screen which doesnt mean all s6 will be bad
[Nexus 6  General] :
Just got my s6, The screen is AWESOME. The colors are uniform and the grays are even!! The device is beautiful, the built quality and the feel. I really wanted a good nexus 6, if there were no backpanel issues or display issue I would have stuck with it for 2 years atleast. The display was the main problem. Anyway.. it was a good trip with the n6 and peeps on this thread, Adios. :)
[Nexus 6  General] nitinvaid:
my nexus 5 is dead now again after last month glass broken today its dead

i am now thinking to buy nexus 6 is it avaliable in flipkart only or the local stores too

and whats this backpanel issues or display issue in nexus 6 is there any issue with it?
[Nexus 6  General] ananjay:
Anybody using DualDrive/OTG with Nexus 6 without root running 5.1?
[Nexus 6  General] PR0707YP3:
Yupp using the kingston usb 3.0 otg
[Nexus 6  General] ananjay:
Great! Using sandisk OTG 3.0 shouldn't be an issue.
[Nexus 6  General] ananjay:
Anyone facing issues with antutu benchmarks? Mine scored 46k where it earlier scored 53k while it was running on 5.0.

Secondly, I'm using Vodafone(Delhi). During a call, often signals would go missing. Signals fluctuating is one of battery draining issues too.
[Nexus 6  General] Sharp-Razr:
Do synthetic benchmarks affect the usability of your phone? They don't for me. :)

As for signals it's primarily dependent on the service provider. I have had zero issues since upgrading to the latest build of 5.1 (LMY46I). Rock steady performance, I don't have to reboot for days. For battery related issues, check the Battery stats app in Settings or, if your phone is rooted, get Better Battery Stats for detailed reports on which app is draining battery. Surprisingly I found BBM (Blackberry) to be an app which is the biggest battery drainer.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
did anyone in india got OTA for 5.1.0 (LMY47I) build ?
[Nexus 6  General] Sharp-Razr:
I waited for a week for the update. When it didn't appear, just downloaded the ROM and flashed it. You may want to consider a manual update/flash.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
yeah I a going to do the same, flash factory image, the only proble with that is it wipes everything
[Nexus 6  General] Sharp-Razr:
Yes, that's a big nuisance for all users. The only way around it is not to lock the bootloader after upgrading. The next upgrade (or 3rd party dev ROM) will not wipe the phone. But then it makes the phone just a tad less secure according to some opinions on the net.

I always lock the BL, in the hope I will get an OTA the next time there's an update but I wind up getting impatient and flashing the ROM manually :)
[Nexus 6  General] NishantM:
Has anyone here got their device replaced from a Motorola Service Centre. My phone was having issues, was shutting off randomly. And by shutting off I mean the display goes blank and I have to press the power button to power on the phone again. The service centre in Mumbai told me I would be getting a replacement, but it would take 10 - 15 days. If anyone here has got their phones replaced how long did it take? Stuck with an iPhone for time being [emoji17]
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
I just got a replacement today for battery issue and it took me a month in pune...Mumbai should be faster...but good thing is they do give full replacement for which waiting is worth
[Nexus 6  General] NishantM:
Damn! So it's gonna be a long wait. They should at least give priority support for high end devices. Paying 44k for a phone and waiting a month to get a replacement is just not done. I might as well try contacting Motorola to see if anything can be done to get it faster, not keeping hopes high though.

Btw, is the replacement you got a completely new set or there are slight signs of usage?
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Its a brand new device with new box and Motorola support will just tell you to goto service center

And the fact that they giving replacement instead of replacement is good ... Samsung doesn't even entertain warranty on battery damage

Hi All Indian Moto Users,

my eBay id "themobosell" have LG G flex 2 for sell.

i am looking for CDMA DATA solution , if anyone have Nexus 6 CDMA data solution pl let me know.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6  General] Mayank97:
I bought a Nexus 6 about a day ago. I found a little problem.

I used to own a Samsung Galaxy S2, and it had this option "USB utilities", through which I could use my phone as a mass storage device, even when connected to my mac. But I am missing this option in Nexus 6. I want to transfer huge amounts of data (mostly songs) but I haven't had a great result with AFT in the past.

Any help?
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
S2 had old version of android which supported that now its removed from all phones on lollipop....you can still get it if you are rooted
[Nexus 6  General] Mayank97:
But I am not, nor am I planning on rooting anytime soon. I'll wait out the year of warranty, and then root. Till then, is AFT the only way?

I can get my hands on windows pc, if that'll allow me to use it like a storage device.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
You know rooting nexus and getting it back to factory is just a click away

I have given my one phone after factory flash and the service center never knew it was ever rooted...that's the beauty of nexus

And they gave me a brand new device in its replacement
[Nexus 6  General] Mayank97:
But the FAQ page here says that rooting will void your warranty.
[Nexus 6  General] Sharp-Razr:
No memory leaks noticed, free memory about 1.5 to 1.6 GB consistently (with basic apps running), phone not rebooted for over 3 days and I am getting v good battery life since upgrading to build no. LMY47I
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Technically yes but Indian cust service guys can't find it so it's safe

With Samsung devices they have others ways to find it like Knox to counters etc but nexus is relatively easy and safe

But yes if u don't know what you are doing and are not sure why u need root then don't root
[Nexus 6  General] Mayank97:
So, I finally did root my phone. Now, how can I enable USB Utilities?

Also, I wanted to create an organised app tray (create folders for similar apps, or create separate pages for similar apps. But, I can't seem to be able to do this. I am running stock, and don't really want to use a launcher.
[Nexus 6  General] blueren:
It appears you're very new to all of this. I'd really suggest you do a thorough reading of everything there is before you proceed. you'll find the stickied threads about the basics in the general / q&A section. For everything else, there is always google and youtube! Happy modding! :)
[Nexus 6  General] Mayank97:
I am relatively new to android L, and do read the stickies, but I am stumped as to what I should do now, after rooting. I am familiar with jailbreaking and iOS, so I have Xposed previously. But for 5.1, Xposed is in alpha. I have installed a couple of things (like mcr modpack and stickmount), but now, I can't think of anything else to do.
[Nexus 6  General] blueren:
I'm not a big fan of xposed. I commend it's versatility, but it exposes and puts in a lot of "hooks". Can be made to work against all the security google has in place. Anyway, your phone, your call.

My suggestion would be to install chroma and forget about everything else. If you're not a big fan of google now, you could try out launchers such as nova / action launcher etc etc. They have a ton of customization features.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
You can try chain fire USB app
[Nexus 6  General] Mayank97:
I'd rather not use custom ROM or launchers. Anything else you could suggest?
[Nexus 6  General] blueren:
You'd not want to use a custom rom or launcher. Yet you use Xposed. Dude.
[Nexus 6  General] Mayank97:
Well, Xposed is easy to use. And you don't have to wipe your phone everytime you change them, unlike roms.
[Nexus 6  General] digkong:
Has anyone gotten the 5.1 ota yet.?
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:

[Nexus 6  General] sandeeppathak007:
To all my indian friends, there is 5000 discount on nexus 6 on flipkart so I wanted to check with you guys anout the performance n issues before i place the order

Please suggest if I should go for it, currently i m using oneplus one n there is no such issue but i just wanted a change
[Nexus 6  General] Sharp-Razr:
Noticed the 5K discount yesterday evening. My 1.5 month long experience with the phone has been flawless but there are others (read thru this thread for feedback) who have had issues with the battery cover coming off and the display. In both cases Motorola or Flipkart will replace your phone, so not to worry. I'd recommend this phone to anybody who asks, based solely on my experience.
[Nexus 6  General] sandeeppathak007:
Oops I missed the offer, I think I would wait for another offer now, till then would use oneplus one
[Nexus 6  General] jayesh:
I can understand not wanting to use a custom rom, but launchers? What's the point of using android then, if not to use the customization and flexibility to use a superior product like Nova or Apex? Hell even themer which brings amazing on the fly customization.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Haha funny to know someone doesn't even want to change launcher....should go to iPhone then
[Nexus 6  General] :
Anyone in the Delhi NCR area looking for a nexus 6 cloud white (32Gigs) ?

Warranty till March 2016.

[Nexus 6  General] digesh9870:
If you can bare with a little orthodox and outdated looks, I recommend to buy a moto turbo. Cheaper than nexus 6 and slightly better specs in terms of battery and camera.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
But no nexus means no first updates which is why we buy nexus devices else there are many with these price range specially s6...got great camera and build and screen
[Nexus 6  General] digesh9870:
Yeah, that's a valid reason. But turbo has lollipop too. And s6 is a bit costlier.
[Nexus 6  General] PR0707YP3:
Turbo camera does not have ois. So the pic quality is better in the Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6  General] ananjay:
Had Note 4 been there at 45k, I would have gone for it. In India, Note 4 has been overpriced.

If note 4 is in your range, you shouldn't miss that one! You might miss updates and stock android but Note 4 is a terrific device!
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
everything is fine with note 4, specially screen quality and camera but its software sucks and makes it old samsung duo kind of device,,,it should be available around 47 now

I used it for a month in between but came back to nexus 6 specially with bigger screen and amazing software experience
[Nexus 6  General] ananjay:
Touchwiz should get fine now. Now that Samsung has learned to remove bloatware, they should simply reduce bloatware for forthcoming s/w updates. Note 4 has great battery life and great camera.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
I have experienced s6 and TouchWiz is still too heavy and looks like 5 years old.....they should learn from htc for making light weight custom ui else just leave it stock and make their relevant apps rather than skinning whole OS
[Nexus 6  General] ananjay:
Software ruins everything. Isn't it? Plus flashing a ROM on samsung flagships is quite a risk now a days. You never know who else end up with a paperweight.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Software does ruins whole experience and flashing is not that risky if we be carefully and make necessary backups

Biggest problem is there is not enough custom rims for galaxy and with exynos it will be even less
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
Yes exactly
[Nexus 6  General] umair shaikh:
Looks like my case and screen protector will get delivered first than my phone :p
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
Which of them have you ordered??
[Nexus 6  General] Seadra:
was browsing Zauba and found this https://www.zauba.com/import-nexus-6-hs-code.html

240 stand folio have been imported to Bombay ( I am not saying anything abt PU MOBILE POUCHES coz they were importd on 21st... doesn't make sense to import this soon) .... what this says is the fact that they are imported in Mumbai.... means Play store release... and they won't just do the release for the cases :P I am guessing the launch is very very very near. Google India have partnership with OTS solutions which have warehouse in Bhiwandi, Mumbai. Nexus 5 used to ship from there or go for RMA's there. Let's hope this is a good news!!! Woohooo. I am so excited :D Come on Google.. if this get's released before 6th, I will buy this or else... I am going for iPhone 6 just because I am gonna be having exams from 17th and I have to leave hometown on 10th. If released on 6th, shipping prolly will arrive on 9th if we go by the nexus 5 case where 20th was launch and on 22nd phone was with me. Daym so excited :D
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
Hope they confirm release date tomorrow ...

Any update on the shipping status from flipkart. At least they should give us a specific date, 2nd week of Dec is too vague :(:(
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
Called them in the morning. They said that they are waiting for a date from google

[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
I sold my phone today. Very long days now until the release ...?.
[Nexus 6  General] Sultan of Speed:
Now that you have sold your phone, just wondering, what if Google were to pull off the Google Nexus 6 from the Indian Market & tell us that it would be available only during Jan end or mid-Feb!! Just a thought. :D

Sorry dude!! Couldn't help it!!! Lighten up....Cheers!!! :D ;) :P

[Nexus 6  General] nickfury:

[Nexus 6  General] Sultan of Speed:
You really think Google & Motorola care about 2k customers?

They wouldn't even know we existed...

Grow up & be practical dude...

BTW It's running on Snapdragon 805. They released Qualcomm variant in India.

What radio are you guys getting best signals with? I'm running the stock radio that comes with the 5.1 OTA, but I get terrible signal quality here. I'm on !DEA.
[Nexus 6  General] Sharp-Razr:
I am on the stock modem/radio that came with 5.1. No problems at all on the Vodafone network. You may want to check with the service provider if you're having major issues as signal quality mostly depends on their infrastructure in the area or your location inside a building
[Nexus 6  General] rootofthelotus:
Anyone got that voice unlock feature?
[Nexus 6  General] Sharp-Razr:
Have you guys read this? I am shocked!

[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
I am not shocked...my battery did swell but did not explode and got a replacement .... Some times back it happened to iPhone Samsung etc .... Ppm should also state what they did to make it explode .... Many times they just overcharge which cause this
[Nexus 6  General] Sharp-Razr:
I agree, users don't really speak up about the circumstances that may have caused the explosion. I have read about other phones' batteries exploding but then one does wonder when it is a manufacturing defect or something environmental (mainly battery temperature caused by high ambient temps or high load) that caused the issue.

Modern chargers and the charging circuit in the phone cut off the charging voltage when the battery is full. So there's no such thing as 'overcharging'' . However, it's a different matter that Li Ion batteries are sensitive to temperature > 45 deg Celsius and do not like being maintained (by the charger whilst in the phone) at a 100% state of charge. Once charged it's best to disconnect the charger right away. Some people go so far as to charge the battery when it reaches a low of 40% and disconnect the charger @ 80% in order to get the max battery longevity. I am not very enthusiastic about this method as it does drop the run time and is not practical if you are away from a charging device.

[Nexus 6  General] idroid2324:
I follow this method. But I let it discharge till say about 10 - 15 % and charge up to 80 - 88%. Its enough for me while I m at work. Only time will tell if this method actually does what it should be doing.

On my galaxy s4, I used to charge it till 100%, eventually had to change battery after a year. The battery was swollen.
[Nexus 6  General] Mayank97:
Okay, so I started using Nova launcher. I have to say, it works nicely.

I had another question. My sister has an LG G2 and it comes with this remote control system app. I was wondering if it can work with the Nexus 6. If it can, where can I get it from?
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
You should know that nexus 6 doesn't have IR blaster so any remote app using IR won't work here
[Nexus 6  General] Mayank97:
Ok. Thanks.
[Nexus 6  General] NishantM:
Motorola's after sales service is as bad as Micromax and others. I got a replacement device after waiting 20 long days and the replacement has two issues now. Battery suddenly drops from around 50% to 0% and phone shuts down. Doesn't power on unless I connect the charger. The display is uneven. Top portion is brighter while bottom portion is darker. Looks like they don't even bother checking the replacement device before handing it over to the customer. Regretting buying a Motorola device now. What a mess!
[Nexus 6  General] abhi98228:
Anybody knows whats this flipkart smartchk app? I am having issues with my N6 with the power button and battery drain how they gonna check the issue with the app lol is it some fake excuse to not to refund the device
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
The battery is dead inside get replacement again ASAP....
[Nexus 6  General] NishantM:
Yup, will be visiting the service centre tomorrow. Had a talk with Motorola. When I told them about the uneven color reproduction on the display they tell me to take a screenshot and sent it to them via email :eek:. I was like :rolleyes:, how can a screenshot show you a defect of the display.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Tell them about battery issue they will replace it...my battery got swollen and same issue they gave me replacement and so far great handset
[Nexus 6  General] anuragvivek93:
where to go for replacement of Nexus 6 in New Delhi. I tried in 2-3 motorola shops but they said.. they currently don't cater to nexus 6. Plus I'm rooted so what all I have to do before going to the customer service.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Just flash factory image and lock boot loader they won't know anything happened....u need to goto Motorola official service center
[Nexus 6  General] abhi98228:
I bought my N6 from flipkart. I want to replace it cause of some hardware issues. They asked me to install Smartchk app. How they going to check hardware issues with that app lol. Anybody here having any experience with Flipkart replacement of N6.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
What hardware issue ?
[Nexus 6  General] abhi98228:
---------- Post added at 11:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 AM ----------

phone is getting kinda warm always and the power button also not working properly need to press really hard to get it working tried flashing stock os 2-3 times still same problem
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Phone warm is normal...power button issue u can report to Flipkart support and if u r under return period they will do it else u have to take it to service center
[Nexus 6  General] abhi98228:
no its getting really warm I am android users for many years and I know this is not normal and I had bought it 10 days before

I dont know how they gonna check this issue from the app lol they can check only if the sensors are working or not how can they check if they power button defect or over heating
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Just tell them u r under return period and not happy with phone and want to return it ...they will do it and give u replacement
[Nexus 6  General] abhi98228:
actually I called them and asked they said their technical team will check your mobile from the app and they will decide if you will get a replacement or not WTF is this!!!! this is my last purchase from Flipkart!!! Amazon is best they will refund you no questions asked

We have some technical knowledge so we know app cant detect these issues but what if somebody who doesnt have such knowledge

Flipkart is making fool of such people lol really WTF flipkart
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Then just install the app which they suggesting and let them investigate...Flipkart is also good at replacement u can also say after investigation that you still not happy and want replacement
[Nexus 6  General] abhi98228:
yes I have installed it also checked app permissions it has permissions to turn on or off all the sensors thats it :P

I hope flipkart will give me a replacement
[Nexus 6  General] NishantM:
Visited service centre today. They gave me another replacement on the spot. This one seems to be fine, especially the display. Hope there are no other issues too.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
Did u get a new sealed pack or opened box ?
[Nexus 6  General] NishantM:
It was not sealed pack. They opened it from a carton and there was a plastic wrap seal on it. In short, it's not a new handset probably refurbished. Even the first replacement was the same. I guess they're giving brand new handsets only to those with bulging back covers. I'm happy as long as the phone works and there are no problems with it :)

But this is definitely my third and last Motorola phone. They have huge quality issues with Nexus 6. Lenovo will probably screw the company more.
[Nexus 6  General] saj2001ind:
They open to test even the new ones for their internal checks first then give to customers .... So don't worry its new only
[Nexus 6  General] knightshooter:
Same is the case with my replacement unit I got after waiting for a month. Top is brighter than the bottom
