Fair enough....I had not seen anyone actually verify that, so I'm glad to know that someone tried. I'm not sure if your test will work though....I read that SIMs for iPhones are configured differently or something. I saw someone state that switching an activated iPhone SIM into a Nexus 6 will not work on Verizon. Either way, it will be interesting to see the results. If switching an already active SIM into another phone is just one extra step in order for it to work, then that is helpful for people to know instead of most just reading that it doesn't work for whatever reason.

On the flip side, I just received my Sprint Nexus 6 today... Inserted my T-mobile SIM I was using on my Lumia 1520, everything works with no issues... I get data (LTE) and voice / sms with no problems. I'll do this until my prepaid minutes are up then will reinsert the Sprint SIM and use it on Sprint.
[Nexus 6  General] seezar:
I'm one of those that bought directly from moto. Today I was finally able to get it activated on sprint. I used a brand new Sim.
[Nexus 6  General] oldpreowner:
I copied this from the Motorola forums on their website.

Let us know if you are able to activate. We've gotten the all clear from Sprint that all devices should be able to be activated... However if you're still experiencing an activation issue, please let us know.*

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION]

For those who haven't received their device yet. You should be able to activate it when you receive it.

Just read on reddit AT&T is coming SIM locked..

Does this mean I can't pop in my VZW nano and get service there? I can't find anything on searching.

If so, I'm just going to testdrive the AT&T model, return and order from Moto if I love it.
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
That's correct. A SIM lock means that it'll only accept AT&T's SIM unless you have the unlock code for it. AT&T will give you to code for it once the phone is paid for, or you can buy the code from one of the countless 3rd party sites that are out there.

So, if you buy one from AT&T brand new and put a VZW SIM in it, it's going to pop up and ask you for an unlock code.

Questions:

I have HTC Droid DNA (micro SIM). I am getting a Nexus 6 from the GPS (nano SIM). I am a current Verizon customer.

What is the best approach for me?

1. Cut my SIM down.

2. Ask Verizon for the nano SIM.

My son has a HTC One M8 (which has a nano SIM) - can I use this in some way? Obviously, he still needs the SIM, but does it do me any good to use that SIM to activate/start up the phone?

Thanks....
[Nexus 6  General] efrant:
If enough XDA devs/users get a SIM-locked N6, hopefully the collective brain power will come up with a SIM-unlock solution (similar to what was found for the Galaxy Nexus here). It was a simple-enough method, and a welcome relief compared to the complexity of trying to SIM-unlock a Nexus One...
[Nexus 6  General] Froryrory:
Yanks, I switched from a G2 (micro SIM) to N6. Just take the phone with box (because it has the IMEI number on the box) and ask them to activate your new phone. They will look puzzled at first because they don't know what phone you have, lol. Since the phone isn't in VZWs system, it won't just turn over with the new SIM and N6 IMEI. What they will do is activate a loaner phone that utilizes a Nano SIM and recognizable IMEI. Once the SIM is good, they just have to manually enter in the new N6 IMEI into their system and pop in the Nano SIM. BOOM! Now you can walk away a happy person. Hope that helps.
[Nexus 6  General] kickenwing13:
I bought a droid mini so that my local Verizon would give me a nano SIM. I was afraid my microsim was too long even if I trimmed the card down. So I stuck the nano SIM in and it dismissed the SIM lock prompt, I can make calls get text messages and GPS might work, I'm not sure yet. I have no data though. Word from AT&T is that as of December 4th we will be able to more easily get a SIM lock for free with just the IMEI number and an email or something.
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
I can't get mine to register on Verizon. I cut my Micro SIM down to Nano and put it in. Rebooted multiple times and nothing. When I try to register on Verizon it just says "Network Unavailable"..

Everyone else says it works right out of the box, but I can't get it to work.
[Nexus 6  General] selayan:
Maybe it got messed up while it was cut. I just called and asked for a nano SIM for the m8. Using it now in my m7 with an adapter. Have you tried changing the network setting to lte instead of global?
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
Wiped and did a factory reset and it works now. Might be because I set it up on T-Mobile.
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
I set up a new line on Verizon and amazingly was able to get a new nano SIM without going to war. I told the girl that I had a Nexus 6 and that my device wouldn't be in her IMEI database. She told me I was the third person she's had with a Nexus 6 and it was no big deal. She said she'd "use the IMEI from a dummy device" to get it activated. Sure enough, she used the IMEI from a display M8 they had in the store, got me my SIM, good to go.
[Nexus 6  General] oldblue910:
I've updated the first post with some information regarding US Cellular. They launched the Nexus 6 yesterday so I went into a corporate store today with my AT&T model.
[Nexus 6  General] 1BADDMAX:
I purchased my Nexus 6 64GB through Motorola. I originally activated the phone with my T-Mobile $30/month nano SIM. I read that several people had to wipe the phone to get their Verizon nano SIM to work. All I had to do was put my nano Verizon SIM in the phone and wait about a minute. Phone connected to Verizon's network without a wipe. :D

Nexus 6 - ...back on Verizon

[Nexus 6  General] buggerman:
I'm really sorry for digging this old thread up but I had a question and quite honestly, there isn't enough information about this.

Can I use the USA version of Nexus 6 with a CDMA carrier in India (supports OMH, tested working with Verizon's BB10 devices - Data, Texts and Voice), like Reliance CDMA? Does the Americas version also support EVDO data?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] bthoven:
I always put my x1 in a bag with case which cover has no magnetic snapon; so the cover always open and close by itself inside my bag. That will automatically wake up my x1 several times in my bag.

How can I disable the auto wakeup?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] mru55:
Simply turn off "display cover" mode.

Settings / display /
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] bthoven:
Thanks.

Mine don't have the Display Cover mode, but have only Window Cover mode which I believe it is what you mean.

I already made it off. It is just for not displaying the mini display through a front cover having a small window. My X1 display still auto on and off when opening and closing the cover.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] mru55:
Sorry, you are right.

Can't find the place where to deactivate the proximity sensor.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] gunlock4real:
Hi, here how i did it, you will find a magnetic on the right of earpiece on the cover, it trigger the screen, just cut it out
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] bthoven:
Thanks. That's a bit extreme for me. :)

Will put it in a rather tight pouch before putting it in my bag.

Are there any tempered glass screen protectors available for the N6 yet?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] cupfulloflol:
I could be wrong, but it looks like there is a slight curve to the screen of the Nexus 6. Which would make sense, as there is on the Moto X 2014 as well. This is a problem for tempered glass protectors. Perhaps it is taking them some time to get to it.

That said, accessories in general are fairly lacking for this Nexus device. There are a handful of cases and screen protectors available for purchase. Perhaps some companies don't know how much of a demand there will be for this product. Perhaps Google and Moto kept this device under tight wraps.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] jason-tech-uk:
Agreed, from the close up of images on their site it does look like there's a slight curve to the front of the screen that would create some complications with it properly sticking to the screen.

Lets keep this thread going so if anyone does find anything it can be added. I'm looking to get my hands on this device so definitely something I'll be looking to get a hold off.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] SinfulRoad:
Well, there appear to be some on some Chinese E-tailers (like AliExpress). But for some reason it says for the LG Nexus 6, so I don't know. Really hope there will be because nothing beats cheap glass screen protectors (I bought like 5 last year for real cheap, best investment for my S4 ever, especially when when my baby niece likes to steal my phone and inevitably do something sinister with it.)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] CarpathianSS:
Amazon has one

Amazon.com has one. It is a pre order for Nov 19th. Also it ships from UK. I have no idea whether this brand is quality or not. Being as I'm new I am unable to post links. Search Amazon.com using this item #

Hi guys, just want to let you know I sent an email yesterday to iloome's customer service and they answered in a few hours:

Dear Valued Customer,

Thank you for your inquiry. Yes the Nexus 6 protectors are being developed as we speak!

Thanks!

Awesome screen protector the iloome Screenmate's BTW

I have preordered the twin pack one on Amazon coming from the UK. I'll cancel if something better comes along. I'll let you all know how it works once I get my Nexus and the screen protector.

I preordered the Orzly one from Amazon. Its the same one I use on my OPO. Hope its the same quality!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] AceKingNYC:
Having gone through the whole tempred glass fiasco with Spigen last year where the N5 wasn't totally flat, therefore leaving air pockets under the .tr glass - I am going to hold off until the phone is in my hands and out for a few days. Although they sent me a replacement, it was frustrating to begin with. But, I have cracked 2 tempered glass covers from silly drops and my N5 screen is still flawless - so I will continue to purchase these, I stand by their functionality.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] sn0warmy:
Same here! Since they didn't put a logo in the center of it and it seems to be installed perfectly, I decided to keep it on until I got a solid tempered glass one. Quite frankly, if they didn't put the little white pull tab in the bottom left corner of the protector and just kept it 100% sealed to the screen, I probably would just keep it on for good. I know I'll never get another SP installed this perfectly. :laugh:

Luckily my Jelly Comb SP should be here tomorrow and I'll get that on permanently.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] oak:
Me too!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] androidtoy09:
I guess alot of us did that lol although I'll take it off as soon as i get a glass protector. The plastic film causes the screen to look grainy rainbow. It's bothering me.

Had mine on for 3 days as well... Would still be on if the AT&T store didn't have them in stock..

Same style I posted earlier from the AT&T store? Just wondering because mine doesn't come close enough to wrapping around the edges to create that issue.. :confused:

I orderd the bodygaurdz from AT&T with my pre order, it fits perfecty, has ~ a 1mm border around the screen that is not protected (where the beveled edges are) No halo effect, and am very happy with it.

It's a little thicker than the ZAGG Glass that I had on Galaxy S4, and the wife's iPhone 6, but overall, very happy with it. (your mileage may vary)

[Nexus 6 Accessories] rufflez2010:
I just ordered it to test it out. hopefully no issue. My phone won't come until around Dec. 3rd. This will likely beat my phone here unless Google ships it out today or tomorrow.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] purpl3rain:
Thanks, ordered one to try out.

Got a Jelly Comb screen protector coming in tomorrow that I ordered late last week. Also of note, I got an email from Jelly Comb customer support this morning. The email was stating that if anything is defective or not good quality or doesn't fit, they'll be glad to help and remedy the issue. I'm guessing this is because of uncertain fitment onto the nexus 6. I know there can be problems with any product, but knowing customer support reached out and is ready and willing to help me was quite re-assuring.

Did anyone else who ordered this get a similar email?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] androidtoy09:
Yep, i did the same thing and also got the same email.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Skripka:
Yup got the email within hours of delivery...told them of the camera cut-out issue and they refunded me. Given that it is really unlikely I'll get another $4USD Prime price sale...I'm debating living with the covered front camera or not.

iLoome needs to make the iLoome Flex for the Nexus 6. I loved that protector. It was my favorite one I have ever used on a phone.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
Same issue for me. Had to take it off when 5.1 broke the prox sensor. Now I can't find one with good coverage. They're all to small. Bodyguardz pure looks like the next best solution.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ooofest:
I used a proximity sensor app to test sensitivity before and after upgrading to 5.1 D (OTA) and E (flash) - even with my proximity sensor and front camera still covered by the same Spigen Crystal protector, nothing changed since 5.0.1. Ambient Notifications also work the same (which makes sense, since that feature has no relationship to either component )

- ooofest
[Nexus 6 Accessories] thacounty:
A few things.

1. I tested mine before and after as well and I, with many others had issues. If I have my tempered glass on, that covers the sensor, I have issues. If I have one on that doesn't, I don't get the issues.

2. Why do you bring up the Spigen Crystal? This is a TGSP thread. The crystal is not TG.

3. Ambient display uses the proximity sensor, they are related. Same as the first point, when I have a TGSP on that covers sensor, ambient display doesn't work, when I take it off or use one that doesn't, it works fine.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ooofest:
1. I've been in the other thread talking about Ambient Display on 5.1, as well - you brought up a point about 5.1 breaking proximity sensor and related that to your screen protector, but my experience was different. Some others with protectors had different results in that same topic, so this seems to be a weird issue. Google is looking into the issue for screen going fully black during calls, btw.

2. Within this very topic there's been brief discussion of the Spigen Crystal in quick comparison - and as a possible alternative - to the tempered glass protectors, because so many have been giving inconsistent installation results, plus the Spigen feels like glass. I simply mentioned my 5.1 experience in that context, because it's still a protector (with different materials - we are guessing that the thickness or material itself may make a difference).

3. Maybe you have more information than me, but I've never heard that Nexus 6 Ambient Display uses the proximity sensor: the Moto-X used that sensor, such that you could swipe your hand over its face and the display would light up, but the Nexus relies on an orientation change/movement or a new event to light up Ambient Display. Nexus 6 apparently uses the proximity sensor to determine if your face is near the phone during a call, blacking it out so that your cheek doesn't accidentally hit an on-screen control, as one example.

- ooofest
[Nexus 6 Accessories] thacounty:
My bad. It looks like I was attacking you. You make a good point, it might just be TGSP that cause this issue and not all SP. I didn't see the posts about the Spigen Crystal either.

If I cover my sensor with my hand my ambient display stops. Try it out. I think it's so it doesn't come on in your pocket.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ooofest:
Hm, I put my palm over the sensor and then moved the phone around, which triggered Ambient Display. Tried sending an email to see if new notifications would do the same thing while covered, and Ambient still came up. Also put my hand over the sensor while Ambient was on, but it timed out after the usual period.

More weirdness in this area for 5.1, it seems.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] EvoKnvl:
When I had the TGSP on, I had PS and Ambient Screen problems. The Screen would black on calls, and Ambient Display never worked. When I finally removed it and put a Spigen back on, both features started working correctly. I'm pretty sure it's like the previous posted said about Ambient Display is deactivated in your pocket.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] ooofest:
And yet, I have a Spigen with different behavior than both your tempered glass and Spigen. So, this may not just be related to tempered glass protectors.

- ooofest
[Nexus 6 Accessories] thacounty:
I think he is agreeing with you.

I just covered my sensor, waited 30 seconds then moved phone. The ambient display did not come on. I then took my finger off, waited 5 seconds and moved it and it worked fine. It definitely has something to do with the Proximity sensor. Maybe yours is misbehaving.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] oufledingue:
there's an issue open at google forums

they've, since yesterday, agreed on the fact they're an issue since 5.1 with proximity sensors that wasn't there with 5.0.1

[Nexus 6 Accessories] ooofest:
Oh, sorry if my tone came across oddly - yes, I was confirming acceptance of his point by noting my confusion from these symptoms.

I've never noticed the sensor turning off Ambient when covered on 5.0.1, but now have the itch to go back to 5.0.1 and test if this is my h/w or something else. Argh.

EDIT: This was User Error on my part, my palm wasn't well positioned in front of the sensor for my prior tests; I just pressed on it specifically with my thumb and the Ambient Display didn't turn on when moving the phone, but did turn on after lifting my thumb.

And, this topic might explain why I hadn't seen this before: some folks said it was actually a 5.0.x problem that Ambient Display turned on when the phone was covered, so considered the 5.1 change to use proximity sensor a "fix" for that condition.

So, I guess my sensor is working in this scenario . . . but, this was new information (to me) on Ambient Display use of the proximity sensor (probably to avoid turning on in pockets or holsters, as you mentioned), thanks.
