I was thinking the other day about how I keep loosing my wand b/c it won't stay in the holder. I remember someone saying that t-mobile replaced their phone b/c of this issue and this got me thinking...

Has anyone had their phone replaced under the 1 year warranty issue? Well of course there are a few of you out there...so what was your issue?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jt_armstrong:
I couldn't be bothered with the hassel that I was going to get from T-Mobile so I just did the Blu Tak trick which has worked a treat. If you want a more permanent fix there is a very good thread in the forum that gives you all the steps.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] demontefixo:
I had the same stylus drop problem also, traded the phone in with TMo and the new one isn't all that much better--and they didn't give me a new stylus :(

I think I'll do the blu tak thing and see how it goes... not ready to risk getting a G4 on the next trade-in. :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] juandbz_:
I have the Samsung Galaxy S4 (I337) It's unlocked and currently using it on T-Mobile's network.

It's running Android 4.4.2 and I am trying to update to Android 4.4.4 but it always says "Software Update Interrupted" & when I try to update again it says "Software up to date, try again in 24 hours".. I contacted AT&T and they said to turn data off and leave WiFi on and try again. I did and this time it did take longer to look for update but it said the same thing again. I contacted Samsung and they told me to try the "Samsung Kies 3" method, I did but it said " 'SGH-1337' does not support initializing." I told Samsung & they told me to go to a local Best Buy and ask them to upgrade the software for me.... But I don't really have time for that, so can somebody please tell why it's doing this / how can I fix this problem? / how can I update it?...

By the way, no , my phone isn't rooted.

Reset

Try removing youre sim card and doing a factory reset and go through the setup only connected to wifi and then check to see if it will upgrade that way
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RockRatt:
Are you rooted? Once it downloads it probably won't flash correctly.

Do you have a ATT SIM card? I believe you HAVE TO be connected to ATT to get the update. It won't update if your on T-Mobile network.

What firmware are you on? Depending on what firmware you are on you should be able to find the stock .cfg file here in this forum somewhere. You MAY need to INCREMENT each update manually though. For example if your on NB1 you would need to flash in stock recovery the .cfg file for the next firmware to NC1. THEN flash the next .cfg from NC1 to NJ4 (or something along those lines with each firmware). NJ4 is the newest so you will end up there.

Give more info on what your firmware is? If rooted or stock? If custom recovery or stock? Any other info so others can help guide you better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] juandbz_:
I tried doing the Kies method again and I have to say, I'm stupid for it... the phone upgrade failed & now it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again" it wont let me use my phone at all anymore... help :(

[General Questions and Answers] pookieguy:
Anyone have any advice to fix the insufficient storage problem? I have tried everything and nothing fixes it, including clearing of cache.

Hi all,

I have a rooted phone and constantly keep storage and performance best I can using a number of apps like SD Maid, Rom toolbox, etc.

My problem is that while it is clear that that all storage from phone to external SD card have plenty of free space, I'm running into a problem when attempting to update certain apps such as games from the play store. They fail do to insufficient space.

Any suggestions as to the cause? The only info I can provide related to cause is that this seems to happen after I take HD videos with camera. However, those videos do indeed reside on external memory card which obviously has plenty of space just like both other storage options.

Any help is appreciated.
[General Questions and Answers] Dark3n:
"Insufficient space" is a general error that is displayed when a write fails.

This can mean not enough space, but also failure due to existing files or wrong permission.
[General Questions and Answers] pookieguy:
There is plenty of space. I also have booted into recovery and fixed permissions several times but has not solved the issue. It is only happening with a handful of apps.

Any suggestions?

[Nexus 6  General] ambichetan:
Well, I loved it initially ! Many sleepless nights and I was craving to have one for almost a month.

I understand the need to bring in better camera, better hardware, bigger screen and other better specs we all were craving for. Also, many people are crazy about it!

But, after using it for 2 days, I started thinking why google screwed up nexus 6 with SIZE and WEIGHT ! It is just too "BIG" and "HEAVY". It made my phone almost useless. I wish there was a nexus mini 6, which is lighter and smaller.

Being a nexus and google stock android maniac, I can't use any other cell phone but my nexus 5.

So, I am back to nexus 5. It does feel fresh with the lollipop update. And, I am happy about it.

I am ready to wait for one more year, hope google will pick the best one which is comfortable to use for all users next time !

P.S: It was just my experience and opinion. I am always an android lover. Don't BOMB me !
[Nexus 6  General] Rauch:
Heavy? I think you need to hit the gym bro.

Don't know how size and weight made your phone useless....
[Nexus 6  General] androidballer:
You could try motox 2014, that is the closest to stock android in almost the n5 size.
[Nexus 6  General] Konikub:
I can see how the size of a phone can make it useless to some people...but the weight shouldn't be relevant. A mere 5-6 years ago (and less) phones were FAR chunkier and far heavy, and we hand no choice cause that was all there was on the market.

To the OP....their are plenty of GPE phones out there that have awesome specs, and the screen size you want. No need to wait another year.
[Nexus 6  General] sfidelisrp:
Wow, heavy? Really? I don't see it as heavy at all. Especially for the size. To each his own I guess, but maybe you should've given it a few more days. Hasn't even been a week yet.
[Nexus 6  General] Smallsmx3:
If anything the phone is solid, not heavy, which I'm enjoying.... I was doing wrist curls for the past month so maybe that's why it's n not heavy to me

[Nexus 6  General] marper123:
Phone size is a preference. I have had a large phone for years and prefer it. I understand that Google lost a lot of fans by going to a large phone. And many of you think they "messed up". But Google literally won my business by making a large device. And I know I'm not alone. I had been resigned to putting up with touchwiz another year when I found out about shamu. Point is Google did not mess up just because you choose a different device. And its OK to not want a large phone just as much as its OK to like a huge device. That's why they put out the whole be together not the same campaign.
[Nexus 6  General] digitaloutsider:
Different strokes for different folks, I guess. I went from the rather diminutive 2013 Moto X to the Nexus 6 and I certainly have no regrets. It's big, yes, but after a few days with it, I'm very happy with my choice. So much easier to type on it than my X. Happy with the performance, screen resolution, camera. Front camera is kinda weak compared to my HTC M8, but love the rear shooter. Happy all around. Gets fantastic service, too. Even better than my Moto X, and that thing got excellent signal.
[Nexus 6  General] dtblair24:
I can see where you are coming from. Would have definitely been nice is they released a smaller version.

For me though I was able to acclimate to the size rather quickly. Did not seem all that big and I never noticed the weight being an issue.

[Nexus 6  General] air2k57:
Nah man, do not agree. At first I was hesitant to preorder as I thought it was too big. Then, I switched to Verizon and was forced to go to 6+ over iPhone 6 as it was on backorder. That made me realize that it was not too big lol. And comparing it to iPhone, you get better feel in the hand, more display, and perfect weight. I can't see myself going to a smaller display.
[Nexus 6  General] blackmang:
I actually was told by someone who wantes to hold me n6 that is was lighter then theyd imagine by it size, plus coming from the m8, didnt really feel a difference in weight.

Maybe you should look into the Moto X 2014.

[Nexus 6  General] Attackcenter:
The size of the Nexus 6 is not for everyone. I do think however you did not use the phone long enough and give it a chance. Just like the Samsung Galaxy Note series, a high percentage of people whom really give the phone a chance for a reasonable amount of time end of keeping the "note" and stating later "everything else besides the note is too small".

There are some that will never like the size of phablets and subscribe to the life long Steve Jobs diatribe that phones and tablets are separate devices, in which apple as a company changed their tune later.

I do think your making a mistake though. IBM predicted years ago that the future of the computer would be a PC "walkman like device". The calaboration of computer, phone, and music Walkman device are in the phablet. You need to have a big enough screen to have a true "mobile desktop experience" in a phone. Really, that experience envisioned is with 6 inch sized phones and higher. It won't stop here there will be 6 inch + phones with smaller bezels and those that fold/bend. This is the vision that the IBM had. Lenovo now being the owners of IBM and Motorola.
[Nexus 6  General] dboogie2288:
Wouldnt you just call that the MotoX?
[Nexus 6  General] BigPimpin:
Went to Sprint today to check out the demo. We have two phones that are eligible for upgrade, and I've been looking at the Nexus 6 for months. I figured the size would be fine for me, but I wanted my mom to see the phone and see if she wanted to upgrade to the N6. We both currently have Note 2's, and since I'm the one that always has to troubleshoot when she's got phone issues, I like to try and get the same phones so I know exactly what might be going on when there is an issue. I kind of thought the size would be bigger then the Note 2, but having the phone for two years I guess we're just used to it and the N6 didn't seem bigger at all in the hand for either. Felt like the Note 2, just with more screen space. Seeing the pics and unboxing vids does no justice for the N6. The phone is bad ass in person. As for the weight, I checked out the Note 4 just to compare, it felt much heavier then the N6. Not sure if it's the curved back, but it felt much lighter then all the other phones that size. Both of us walked out and agreed the phone was kick ass and the one to upgrade to. Would have gotten them today, but waiting till Black Friday, just in case there might be some deal at Best Buy. Doubt there will be, but one more week isn't much to wait and see. Plus I can get a couple cases on the way during the wait. And actually, after seeing the phone, the curve on the back didn't seem as curved as I thought it was, so hoping that bumper that Rhino Shield is working on will be all it needs. I questioned the curve and how it could work right, but it looks like the bumper could work without a hard plastic back to it.
[Nexus 6  General] dboogie2288:
I've had mine for 36 hours, and I considered returning it. It's growing on me minute by minute. I've been using a Note2 > 3 for the last 3 years, so size and weight are no sweat. Phones are definitely different stroke for different folks. What might be right for you, might not be right for some.

That said, I think I'm going to get an alpha to keep as my smallish phone because I'm now on the nano SIM...

A few things that irk me about the Nexus 6: no SD card, and no replaceable battery....that just doesnt make sense for me. Also, it wont allow a 3rd party keyboard to remain as the default......grr that is annoying.
[Nexus 6  General] fleadog99:
I suggest for anyone that think this phone is too big, to go back and use a smaller device for 1 full day. I went from MotoX to LG G3 to Nexus 6. I was transferring info from Motox to my old LG G3. I thought the Motox was so tiny. I could hardly read anything. My hands are small to be honest. Just some thoughts before you go back.

I love my my nexus 6
[Nexus 6  General] maamdroid:
Ive had mine for about 3 days now. I love it more and more each day. Now that I have a case on it I feel much safer with it(same with all my phones). I still have my nexus 5 and have my number on google voice, so on WiFi it still is fully usable. Though when I've used it in these past couple days, it feels outdated and small...kinda how it felt when I went from my 4s to the nexus 5. I'm very happy with the N6.

I have gone into stores and compared the n6 to the note 4. The note is a nice device, but all the developer potential that comes with a nexus makes it much more worth anything else...

I was listening to some music while using it today and the speakers are awesome. Front facing duals is a must. The issues/wishes I had with the nexus 5 have all been resolved with the 6. I'm happy to pay a higher cost to not have the nexus skimped on anything.

Tl:Dr, very very happy with my N6, have zero desire to return it.
[Nexus 6  General] chris6278:
Im not feeling this phone either. Yea its huge but to me it doesn't feel good in the hand an i have big hands. Im gonna give it a lil while longer before i decide to return it. Maybe itll grow on me
[Nexus 6  General] crashercarlton:
I bought a Nexus 5 as soon as they launched last year...I broke it and bought a note 3...loved the screen size for viewing and reading. Then google came out with the free replacement and i got my nexus 5 back. I dearly missed the note's screen size but would not go back for any reason. The Nexus 6 i was afraid of but after using it i'm perfectly fine with it.
[Nexus 6  General] RamOdin:
Just got mine today, man I LOVE this phone. I had a G2 with CM11 but they stopped supporting it, so that was frustrating since there were still a lot of bugs.

So, I really wanted an already stock something which meant Motorola or Nexus, and here I get both.

I LOVE (and have) the Moto X (2013) and I am very very happy with this phone; software and hardware/design.
[Nexus 6  General] Evo_Shift:
You could have probably made some money selling it...

Anyway, i do enjoy the size but the weight does get to me if I am using it for a long time. It also feels like it wants to skip out of my hands easier. I'm hoping a case remedies that.
[Nexus 6  General] Semantics:
I had a similar experience. Don't let the fanboys get you down, Google dropped the ball on this phone. I mean, they are trying to take on the king of all phablets, and will fail miserably. The next iteration, if there is one, will be smaller. The Note 4 sold more phones in week then the Nexus 6 will sell in a year, hell, even the Nexus 5 didn't sell well and that was half the price. Lollipop is great, but it wasn't enough for me to keep the Nexus 6, so back it went. The N5 is still a fine phone, and will do anything the N6 does for the next year. I love Nexus devices, but the N6 isn't compelling at all, and its way too big.
[Nexus 6  General] error311:
You had a similar experience? Yet you use the note 4 as an example? It's about the same size and weight no? Why does it matter how much it sells anyway, because a lot of people buy it must be the "BEST"?
[Nexus 6  General] Semantics:
I don't own a Note 4. I said "They are trying to take on the king of all phablets". They will fail. Lack of reading comprehension FTL. It will matter when they sell a million handsets in a year and realize that 99% of all people who want a phone as big as a VCR tape will buy a Note, and that won't change, they own the market. Google dropped the ball, period. It happens, and I'm not too blinded by my own Android fanboy'ism to admit it.
[Nexus 6  General] chancy319:
After using the N6, going back to my N5 just feels weird. It feels like a toy. So small and inferior. I never really liked it. It was bland. The design was dull and uninspirational. Nothing notable or memorable about it.

It's so much easier to type on my N6. Watching content is very satisfying especially with the front facing speakers. I don't know I live without them. The big battery is awesome. Turbo charging is great. I LOVE Ambient Display. It is so much better than an obtrusive and obnoxious led light. In short, I love the phone. The only thing I might do is drop the screen size a little bit from 5.9 to 5.7. That's it.
[Nexus 6  General] frigidazzi:
I actually returned mine today as well. I didn't realize how much I like using my phone with one hand until I used the nexus 6 for a week. My nexus 5 is perfect size for that. I also hated the ambient display. Never knowing if you get a text or something unless you had the phone sitting in front of you when it happened. I am back to loving my LED. Different strokes for different folks I guess... I did love the turbo charger though.
[Nexus 6  General] chancy319:
That's the thing about me. I hated the LED. I hated that anytime I got some stupid, mundane text or email about a promotion I don't care about, the light would constantly blink until I unlocked the screen and cleared.

It was worse when I'm in bed and the light just keeps blinking and blinking on and off forcing me to reach out and clear the notification.

With the N6, I realized that I don't need to know when ever single notification comes in. There's a 99% chance I won't miss any notification anyway because I'm usually picking up my phone every couple of minutes and I will see it when I pick it up.

I'm enjoying not being disturbed and harassed. Lol.

[Nexus 6  General] Konikub:
It's a phablet, not a flippin 4.7" or 5" phone. Plus the Nokia phones you had were tiny THICK bricks, albeit "lighter" . Return your Nexus 6 or give it to your pap.

The Droid Turbo is the ugliest phone I've ever seen. It's more than good with me it's a VZW only deal.

[Nexus 6  General] XorZone:
Who cares if it is phablet or what not, there are people who love it and people who think it is too much. The ergonomic and carrying it everyday suffers. Admit it is HUGE and heavy brick, albeit thinner. Your argument about old phones is invalid.

And, I didn't ask for your opinion on either turbo or what to do with n6.

[Nexus 6  General] femmyade2001:
Though I never got a chance to pre-order, I have been tracking reported issues and all. I also visited a couple stores to try out the phone. Two things popped out

It has this warm tint to the screen. ticks me off big time

it seems just a blown up Moto x like reviews say

Coupled with the lollipop issues I see on my nexus 9, I decided I didn't want to spend hundreds on a device that isn't quite ready for release. And with the "out of stock" everywhere, the manufacturer will be rushing production and that only leads to more issues. Take the AT&T recall for example.

So I picked up a gold HTC One M8 and i love it. Just ordered a white dbrand for it too. I think I will keep this device for a while. If the nexus 6 does impress me much later, I won't hesitate to get one.

[Nexus 6  General] Konikub:
That's the absolute beauty of this forum. ;) I don't need you to ask my opinion for me to dish mine out. If you've haven't noticed, the OP gave his opinion on why he's returning it....and others are giving theirs on why they do or don't agree.

On a serious note though, I disagree with the OP yet I greatly respect and validate your opinion, but there is CRUCIAL piece of information you didn't elaborate enough:

What phones were you previously using and for how long??

I personally came from the Note 2, then upgraded to Note 3, now ordered the Nexus 6, so I don't think it will be a great difference.

But if you're telling me you're coming from an Moto X 1st gen for 2 years, then a Nexus 5 for another 2 years....then you will obviously be overwhelmed by the new size and weight of the N6.

So could you tell us where you came from in detail?

Thanks!
