[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poldie:
What am I looking at? What's the problem? Are you asking if your phone is going to fail at some point in the future. Almost certainly, just like it is the destiny of the human race - of every race and species - to become extinct. And at some point after that, the sun will expand and burn up all that ever was (except the voyager craft, which will escape intact, and I just regret now that the gold record they stuck on it in the 1970's couldn't have included Rick Astley because the idea of rickrolling some alien civilisation 20 million years from now arouses me). Until then, I'd try not to let it worry you.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluesky2111:
Nice post, sorry for making you confused.... because most people have faced bunch of problems on this phone, so I was just worried...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] augie7107:
Nothing to worry about that I can see. Have had mine for two months and it looks just like yours, no issues.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Nice, you got one with even gaps so that's good. Just make sure you get a case or protector for the back, I love the phone but the back glass is pretty soft I have some minor scratches near the bottom edge despite being careful.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluesky2111:
Thanks all!!! I will try to find a case and screen protector :)
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluesky2111:
What do you mean by "gaps" and "good"? 0.O
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
On many phones the screen is uncentered so there is almost no gap between LCD and frame on one side and a big gap on the other, yours is good. Mine is like yours. For those who have it, its just a cosmetic thing.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Looking at the contents sticker showing no earphones I am guessing you got it from TMO?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluesky2111:
Cool, thank you so much :)
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluesky2111:
Nah nah I got it on Sony Store. Mine is D6603 LTE. :)
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nick-1988:
Hi :) can you write here the week of production of your unit? I'm trying to collect more infos I can, and then share them on an Italian android forum :)

Can you put here some photos like bluesky? or if you like send them on pm... just for curiosity, next month I'll buy a new z3 again, I hope in a unit without the issues we know very well...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
My current one is a week 39. I will post pictures here tonight or tomorrow.

I have gone through 3, because T-Mobile got a bad batch:

1. had evenly set/centered screen but light bleed

2. had uncentered screen and back glass so big gap on one side

3. had uncentered screen and back glass so big gap on one side and purple camera on sided of pics, and light bleed all along one side. (Week 40)

4. Current phone, everything is perfect (Week 39)

No, tmo has a different bix
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shuthefrontdoor:
My first one was bought on amazon 6603 and it came eith seals open already which made me uncomfortable but the phone worked flawless but one of the nylon corners protruded out just the slightest not even 1mm off but it bothered me so i returned it it was production week 41 so i bought one on sony store and am happy to report not a single flaw , my new one is productiob week 44
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
Yeah that happened to my third one the, nylon cap on one side was literally cutting me because it was protruding out a little.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluesky2111:
Yes it happened to me as well. I was too lazy to take a shot of that corner. It was bulged out a little bit, but only if you look very closely. One thing I'm afraid is that will those gaps on the edge (or the ugly corner we have) let water get in? :(
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
There is glue under the glass and the frame actually extends inwards a bit. Don't worry about gaps unless you see a lot of light coming through between the frame.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluesky2111:
Thank you, that helped a lot. Actually I have tried "washing" it twice, but only 30s or less, so not sure if it's defective.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shuthefrontdoor:
i wanna wash my phone so bad but I'm so hesitant lol

Given that we are all curious about the phone and that some T-Mobile locations are beginning to put the Nexus 6 on display, let's use this thread to post sightings and our own "hands on" experiences.

Where have you seen it on display and what were your thoughts?

I'm in the Northern Virginia/Washington, DC area and I've yet to find a T-Mobile with a display of a Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6  General] dr_rick13:
Am also in the DC area, there are pleeeenty of stores in the DMV that have display models. I know one for sure is the Shady Grove & Fallsgrove one, corporate store. Anyway, just call them up and ask them about the sale and they usually tell you that they only have demo unit. Good luck ;)
[Nexus 6  General] bholyk:
I posted this in another section earlier today:

If anyone in South Jersey wants to try out the phone while waiting for delivery, the T-Mobile in Willingboro on Route 130 has a demo unit. I tried the thing out and it is definitely big but not shockingly big. It is a little bigger than my OPO and the screen is perfectly huge. At least to me it doesn't feel much larger in the hand than the OPO so if you have an OPO and are ok with that then you should be fine with the 6.

The phone felt fast and buttery smooth. I activated developer options, took animations to 0.5, restarted, and it felt exactly like both my nexus 5 and OPO feel speed wise. I know that is subjective and each person may have a different opinion but that is my take on it so I am happy.

Granted it was brand new with no extra apps on it and didn't even have a sim card, but there were 25 free gigs of storage and 1.9 Gb of free ram (for those that care)

Now to just sit back and wait for what seems like it is going to be a damn good phone.....at least after a 5 minute impression
[Nexus 6  General] toyfreak:
I saw one yesterday on a business trip to San Francisco. 699 Market St. Store. Wasn't on display yet but the rep carrying it around let me have it for a few minutes. Big, really big. And solidly built. And oh so smooth. Display looked okay to me but I didn't compare it to the Galaxy Note 4. To me the Note 4's build quality doesn't even come close to the Nexus 6, though.
[Nexus 6  General] donnyp1:
Katy, tx. Just west of Houston. Barker-Cypress exit and I 10. Tried it out right out of the box today. I thought it would be bigger.
[Nexus 6  General] Master Ramy:
Fullerton California, on LA palma and harbor
[Nexus 6  General] gtg465x:
Anyone find one on display around San Jose, San Fran, Mountain View? You'd think I could find one to gander at around here considering the damn thing was designed right in my back yard.
[Nexus 6  General] fedecape:
Miami, anyone?
[Nexus 6  General] laureanop:
Northridge, California. Corner of Nordhoff and Reseda Blvd
[Nexus 6  General] dualityim:
What time did you go to that T-Mobile store? I went to the 699 Market St store around 7PM and one of the employees told me their demo unit was stolen! Luckily there's another T-Mobile store not too far away from that one, at 50 Powell, and they let me play with their demo unit.
[Nexus 6  General] toyfreak:
Wow, that's crazy! My last video says 7:19 PM (taken with stand-in iPhone 5). I don't know if that means local there or here (EST).

I DIDNT DO IT, LOL!
[Nexus 6  General] mallman:
i was at the East Cobb location in Marietta GA yesterday and they had one. IT was awesome. They let me compare sizes to the note 4 and shoot, its really almost exactly the same size. I thought it was light, and more comfortable to hold than the note 4 was. IN fact, it felt very similar to my oneplus one. There was no lag at all from the couple of minute test drive I did. It was enough for me to eliminate any doubt that I would be getting it in fear of size or performance. Awesome phone.
[Nexus 6  General] redalertlb:
Anyone in the Knoxville area find one?
[Nexus 6  General] DroidDredd:
I think the size will be relative, for someone with average + to big hands it will be great

Then again even some folks with smaller hands like big phones
[Nexus 6  General] Dr Faustus:
Mays Landing/Hamilton Court (Nearby the Hamilton Mall in South Jersey) has a demo up as well.

Are you going to get a N6 too? I might be buying mine from the Cherry Hill location (It was one of the 4 locations leaked to sell it on the day of) If I am correct Willingboro was one of the 4 rumored to sell on the day of as well?
[Nexus 6  General] Jsunn:
Colorado Springs, CO

T-mobile Store at the Chapel Hills Mall

They had a display model, but you had to ask to see it. They were very cool about it but didn't have any info. They offered to let me pre order, but they couldn't do it as it "wasn't in the system".

Handling it just confirmed for me that I want this phone.
[Nexus 6  General] bholyk:
I have one in the mail as we speak that I ordered directly from Motorola. It should be on my doorstep Monday or Tuesday. I went there because it was the closest one to where i live that was reported to have a display unit and when i called to ask they confirmed that they did. I have AT&A and just wanted to hold it to hold me over until mine comes this week, haha. They did confirm that they have units to sell this Wednesday so if you/anyone else fail in cherry hill then definitely give them a shot.
[Nexus 6  General] CarpathianSS:
Chattanooga on Gunbarrel Rd has them but doesn't have the display setup yet. Going to swing by and check to see if I can get my hands on it. Will update later if they let me play with it.
[Nexus 6  General] Mr Ian B:
Here in Cedar Park Texas I Measured my note 3 and my one plus one phone against this Nexus six. It's just a little bigger than both of those phones but it was pretty comfortable. Going to buy this Wednesday but I may just wait till I get my order from Motorola on December 2.

Got my one plus and note 3 both for sale on Craigslist for $300 each.

[Nexus 6  General] Prod1702:
Minneapolis, MN area will have displays Monday. They were shipped on Friday. That could mean more stores will have them on Monday as well.
[Nexus 6  General] low.humidity:
the sales person at one of the t mobile stores in tucson,az told me if i buy out right they will keep it locked to thier network for 2 weeks but after that i can take it unlocked to any carrier i want. other than that he had no info. he spent most of the time trying to sell me a different device.
[Nexus 6  General] jcarlm:
Yes. The store I saw the demo at was not suppose to have any for sale the original release date and only a demo model. They stated they will have some for the 19th.
[Nexus 6  General] rockky:
Chicago TMO @ Ontario and Wabash has a demo available.

Spent half hour with it.

Lollipop is faaaantastic. Googles shining moment.

Sadly, nothing other than that has the device standing above and beyond a fair amount of flagships right now. Still a fine Android device tho no doubt.
[Nexus 6  General] hsj1906:
After calling 10 stores in Northern Virginia, I finally found one at the mall in Tyson's Corner.

Unfortunately, I only had a couple of minutes to play with it, but everything seemed smooth to me and, of the apps I opened, they opened quickly. I currently have a Note 3. I placed it on top of the Nexus 6, and all I could see was some of the bezel. In my opinion, the difference was negligible and I suspect that I'll be able to interface with the Nexus 6 in much of the same way as I do now with my Note 3. I was a bit surprised by how thin the sides of the Nexus 6 are compared to the middle of the phone. They aren't iPhone 6+ thin, but there is a pronounced difference in thickness between the sides and the middle of the device. The blue looked very nice and the phone had a nice, solid feel to it.

After reading the reviews complaining about size, I was nervous but my brief hands on confirmed that the size is more than manageable for me (and I suspect this will be true for anyone else coming from any of the Samsung Note series phones).

My phone should be here tomorrow or at the latest on Tuesday (Motorola first batch) and I'm really looking forward to its arrival. I never thought I'd have another chance to get a Nexus on VZW!
[Nexus 6  General] unregistered825:
Can you tell me how the back of the phone feels? Is it hard like the Note 2, or does it have a soft touch feel similar to the Moto X?
[Nexus 6  General] antiochasylum:
Back is hard. And a finger print magnet. At least the blue was. Its not soft by any means lol.

And as for size, I was very under whelmed. Everyone made it out to be huge. Its not. It fits nicely in my hand. Its not a "big" phablet by any means. I'd say more average sized honestly.
[Nexus 6  General] gtg465x:
Well I tried both 699 Market and 50 Powell and both said they didn't have demo units. They just said they weren't being released until the 19th. Bastards.
[Nexus 6  General] rockky:
Yeah, amazing job engineering that 6"device. Easily feels smaller than the Note!

[Nexus 6  General] Ironkidz:
Nothing there. They don't have it on display
[Nexus 6  General] unregistered825:
Thanks, I'm hoping it's not slippery like the Note 2.
[Nexus 6  General] antiochasylum:
Its not. Note 2 was coated plastic. This is just a hard plastic. Not slippery.
[Nexus 6  General] AlphaKoi:
No demo nexus 6 in the Charleston SC area and they aren't sure they'll get any for sale or demo for the launch either.
[Nexus 6  General] antiochasylum:
No it does not. Its almost identical size. Everyone who says it's "huge" or "really big" must have small hands. Its not big. I was very underwhelmed with size. Its only .4 mm wider than my note. Hardly noticeable.
[Nexus 6  General] surge27:
Good to hear. That's my only concern.
[Nexus 6  General] hsj1906:
I think the people who say it's huge are basing it on how it feels compared to the Nex5. But, it's definitely not noticeably bigger than the Note series or the 6+.
[Nexus 6  General] thelowsters:
For the people that got to handle one, does the home screen support landscape mode?
[Nexus 6  General] Majin GeoDooD:
Did you by chance try any of the stores in the Sterling/Chantilly/Herndon area?
[Nexus 6  General] antiochasylum:
That's something I didn't not try. Settings however does. So I would assume it does.

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 PM ----------

Based on n5, then yes it's a huge beast. But based on note 4 and iPhone 6+ is practically same size
[Nexus 6  General] hsj1906:
No, I called the ones in Arlington, Alexandria, Springfield, Woodbridge, and Fairfax. I was surprised when I called Tysons Corner and they had it.
[Nexus 6  General] Majin GeoDooD:
Gotcha! I may give the Sterling/Dulles store a try.. I'll update the thread if they have it for anyone else in the area.

Thanks for the info!

So Tysons Corner Center has a t-mobile store? I swore the only one was off of Route 7....
[Nexus 6  General] MinnGreg:
I'm in the Minneapolis St Paul metro area and yesterday there was not a single demo or unit in stock in any of the stores. Today, the demos started popping up in most of the stores. The store I visited had not even set it up in their showroom. This was great because they brought it out from the backroom and let me handle it freely without the security device attached. That way I got to experience what it truly feels like in hand which was the only factor that was keeping me from buying one.

Amazingly, it just didn't seem all that big. In fact it was quite comfortable to hold and use. Placing the power button in the middle and distinguishing it from the volume rocker with a ribbed surface was brilliant. Sure, it will be a two hander for most activities other than talking on the phone but I think I can deal with that. I'm using both hands with my Nexus 7 while writing this and it's not even close to comfortable as the Nexus 6.

I think Google and Motorola have just created the best designed phone of any size to date. The Nexus line is supposed to demonstrate how things should be for other Android phones. Here, Google has shown what a phablet should be. With the Nexus 6 Google has given those like me who weren't totally comfortable switching to a phablet a good reason to switch. In addition, Android Wear makes a lot more sense with a phablet now that I won't be whipping out a phablet as frequently as I do a regular size phone. Oh no, looks like I'll be forking out more money for a Moto 360 when I recuperate from just buying the Nexus 6.
[Nexus 6  General] brian117:
If anybody lives in or around Cleveland OH. The T-Mobile in the Steelyard has it on display. Finally got to hold it and I loved it. EASILY able to hold it one handed and use everything including the keyboard. I was able to type Q, A, and Z using my right thumb. Just going to hold off for a little while longer for the Cloud White to be available somewhere. The blue was wayyy too purple looking for me even in person.
[Nexus 6  General] sanjsrik:
I live in NYC, I saw a display model on 46h and 6th at the T-Mobile store.

I have to say, all those people who say "it's huge it's massive" yeah, not really. I have a Note 3 and it's really not that much bigger. I picked it up and said, okay, I can use this. Going to wait until all the software issues are ironed out like the first batch of AT&T versions being recalled, but otherwise, it looks fine.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] igord2:
hi ppl,

today I ve made rom with the romkitchen, it was 2003 final and everything went ok, phone was functional until I used to try to install some newer versin of the programs I previously included in the rom. That didnt work (of course) so I decide to put another rom without those programs so I can install newer versions but when I run the romkithen exe computer report

in the dos window

error getconnectiontipe - unspecified error

error getting connectiontype

and the program for the patching report that he is trying to get the data from the device and after that he reports that

"cannot execute the remote communication program, please make sure that the usb/serial cable is properly connectes"

of course cable is connected, device syncing with the active sync and the icon is green, used to try to soft reset pc and pocketpc, to hardware reset pocket pc, to connect it to other pc and patch there, to install active sync 3.7.1, to reinstall active sync 4.2, to reinstall usb drivers on the pc, to put sim card and sd card out and to patch then... nothing helped...

what can I do ? is that due to the windows 2003 instalation on the pocket pc (had same version on other wallaby without the problems) ? can I solve that some way ?

I ve read before that patching can be performed from the SD card so I found the xda tools and osi image tool but couldnt found rom nd1 file anywhere (was stupid and didnt make copy of my previous rom)... which rom can I use just to enable USB connection and after that I ll patch it with the "normal" rom from the rom kitchen...

Ive checked those roms http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ROMVersions but didnt find any nd1 file in the files I ve checked, can I use those roms with osi image tool eventually ?

which one ?

Lots of questions ... Sorry people ...

I can use it in this condition too but I d rather have an opportunity to flash it to some other version maybe.

Best regards to the community !
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] LumpiStefan:
I think it´s just the problem that the ROM prohibits flashing via EXE-file. You have to flash via SD-Card.....

You find the ROm to write on the SD-Card in the EXE-FIle. Just extract the exe using winzip, and then you will find it in a subdirectory (normally english, or dependent on the ROM-Language...)

Stefan
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] igord2:
Thanks a lot Stefan, so I can use some ROM from the page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ROMVersions ?

Any advice which one should I take please (Im not using any of the operators noted there, just looking for some rom that will function ok) ?

Thanks m8 !
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] LumpiStefan:
Yes, you can take any rom of it. Mostly the T-Mobile prohibits flashing via EXE-File, but Flashing via SD-Card is more secure in my opinion. So i´ve done 99,9% of my flashes via SD-Card, and you can believe me, i´ve done it a lot of times.....

By the way, which software has to been updated in my romkitchen?

If you give me the hints, i could try to update them....

Stefan
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] igord2:
thanks a lot for your time and advices Stefan !

Its not a huge problem but probably we share same opinion - most of the tech guys like to see that everything work fine, if something doesnt work then we re not satisfied.

Basically problem is that I included spb pocket plus in the rom and therefore I cant install spb weather which demands pocket plus v 2.5+ and version in the rom is 2.0. I cant upgrade it coz its in the ROM, used to try to remove it from the registry but no luck, used to install latest spb diary coz the spb weather also work with the diary but looks like that the first thing weather perform is checking of the pocket plus version and if the version is not 2.5+ it stops the installation...

Probably for the most of the people spb weather is not a reason for loosing couple of hours in trying to change rom in wallaby but as I ve mentioned I like the things that work 100%, if some electronic/computer stuff work at 99% that usually bother me. Stupid - I know but thats the way it is.

Im going to patch it thru the SD, thanks again for the all your efforts now and before.

GL & HF !
