I am interested to know why would you go back to G3?

Since I got my N6, I always think to return or sell it and buy LG G3 or HTC One M8 and root, unlock bootloader and install CM12. Both are supported now! and this is the plan for N6 if I keep it to install cm12.

The reason for me phone is uncomfortable for one hand usability! Maybe it is a matter of time. I just got it last Friday. Before that, I sold my S4 and temporarily went back to HTC Incredible 2 (4" display) for a month.
[Nexus 6  General] Semantics:
I know it won't be a popular answer, but there are a few reasons. Mainly, the size of the G3 is perfect, it's a real small 5.5" screen phone, the Nexus is massive. I also prefer the screen on the G3. I've had every Nexus device, and the 6 is the first one I didn't stick with for at least 6 months. With all of the AOSP ROM's available for the G3, I couldn't justify keeping the Nexus. It's like carrying a tablet, and if I wanted a Phablet, I'd get a Note, it's superior in all things Phablet to any other.
[Nexus 6  General] mcteague:
From Note 4
[Nexus 6  General] clninja:
Sure the note has tons of features but Samsung drops the ball with quality big time.

Note 4 has overwhelming widespread camera issues ( it doesn't focus half of the time.) I work in a Tmobile store and have had half of the note 4's we have sold come back with the camera issue

Samsung are the single most troubleshooted device that comes into our store...more glitches and issues than any other phone.. And not just because they are the most sold.

Samsung LAG ! every Samsung has it.. I don't care which model

Samsung S3 - battery issues. Horrible battery life, various chargers won't even work on it, bad microusb ports

Samsung S4 - random sim card read errors ( very widespread ) and issues with microsd as well

Samsung S5 - antenna/reception issues, camera issues ( both widespread and recognized known issues by Samsung )

Note 3 - bad charging cables sent with phones. Recognized known issue by Samsung. Phone randomly doesn't charge.

Note 4 - camera won't focus ( I'm sure more problems will arrive )

And EVERY model listed has horrible lag and stutters.

BTW working in a Tmobile store these are constant issues.. Not fabricated or from personal experience

I will probably never go back to a Samdung

BTW I've had G1, Mytouch, G2, Vibrant, G2x, S2, S3, M7, Note 3, M8, IPhone 5s, G3 and now Nexus 6
[Nexus 6  General] Semantics:
You do realize why Samsung has the highest return rate right? They sell more phones than anyone by a mile. So when you sell 5 million phones in a week, and another company sells 50k in a week, you're bound to get more Samsung owners returning phones, that's how it works when you are the biggest selling phone company in the world. I have never owned a Samsung, but its obvious why they are brought in for issues more than other phones, because they outsell everyone by a massive margin. Meanwhile, the letters are falling off the back of 2 week old Nexus Devices, the camera has the same focus/refocus bug of every Nexus device. I'd wager that Samsung has no more of a return margin percentage of phones sold than other vendor, you just see more, because everyone has one.

HTC Hero > Evo > SIII > HTC One M7 > N5 > G3 > N6

I wasn't a huge fan of the G3. I miss the double tap to wake and was coming around to the buttons on the back but hate LG's software. I haven't been rooting or anything lately and with a Nexus I feel like I don't really need too. If someone gets a multiwindow mod working for the N6 I will do whatever it takes to get that running.

[Nexus 6  General] radeonboy:
Came from a Blackberry Passport, didn't have much trouble typing on that thing one-handed so I wasn't worried about the Nexus 6's size at all. Before that I've had a dozen or so Android phones, with an iPhone 6 and Lumia 520 somewhere in between.

People give Blackberry a ton of flack for their products, but the OS10.3's competency in personal organization and work productivity outshine Android or iOS in my opinion. The Passport was a solid device (in software and build quality), but it was a tad too serious for me.

[Nexus 6  General] msal:
Started with an iPhone 3G

Had a Galaxy S2 (T989) for a long time. Probably my favorite phone. The amount of support it had was also crazy. I think it was released with Gingerbread but Cyanogenmod supported it until 4.4.4. It eventually died.

Used an iPhone 5C. It was decent but I gave it to my mom because I was hyped to get the Nexus 6. Noppeeeee

Current phone, which was supposed to be temporary, is the Lg D415. It's an excellent budget phone.. except it has that slippery plasticky Samsung-like build quality (although it's survived a dozen drops thanks to the removal back), the camera is the worst camera I've ever used and the resolution is from the stone ages. Otherwise, pretty decent phone for what I paid.. $120.
[Nexus 6  General] Rado_vr6:
List is far too long to even say, but most recently this year I went from the M8--->G3--->Note 4--->Nexus 6.

I'm very happy with the Nexus overall and for all the gripes that I'm hearing, I can't quite seem to understand them. I'd venture to say that most of the complaints come from people that are uses to the "hey look at me" functionality of OEM skins.
[Nexus 6  General] md1008:
Too many phones in my life time. Last year used nexus 5 and m8 about 50/50 bought N5 in January, then got m8 for SD card and better battery life in April when it was very new...used m8 exclusively for a long while then started using Nex5 when "L" preview was available
[Nexus 6  General] mr dinosaur84:
I came from the LG G2. I got it last December through a sale AT&T had. I was debating between that and a Nexus 5. Before that I had the Nexus 4. In hindsight I should have went from the 4 to 5 because all I ended up doing with the G2 was root and put Paranoid Android on it. Glad to be back to the Nexus like though that's for sure.

[Nexus 6  General] limen123:
Starting my Android ship was the Google G1, then Galaxy S1. After Jellybean released I updated to S3, and unfortunately I got one from the bad batch that had a bad power button. It killed off my S3 and forced me to go to an S4, right before the S5 released. I probably would have stuck with an S3 had it not broke. But yeah, I'm going from S4 to Nexus 6 and I'm extremely excited, cause I never used TW anyways. Literally stayed Galaxy because of the capacitive buttons and the physical Home button. I'm ready for the switch though!

[Sony Smartwatch 3] AstroDigital:
I personally like to turn off wake on tilt.

Use the Specialized watch face.

Except when it is dark I never seem to need to backlight, then if I want to see the time tap the screen.

In the theater turn on "Theater Mode"

I love the lillipop build of Android Wear.

I am not sure how Mute worked, with lollipop I think I like Mute off (watch vibrates on notifications)
[Sony Smartwatch 3] nrseife:
Thanks and I agree. Just was supprised that Google did not implement that, since not all devices are SW3 with transflective screens. So far happy with it, only miss the speaker I had with my Gear 2. I like to record quick voice notes and later listen to them (in the store for instance, but I frequently do not have my bluetooth headset with me....).

I like having tilt to wake off too, the only thing that is a bit annoying is then you can't interact with the device without touching, so you can't twist your wrist and then say "Ok Google, ..."

Thanks for making this much needed MOD/APP ... but I don't really get how to use it though. Do I just put a custom DPI (for example 540) in the box? But if I do that, the whole ROM will change to that DPI. How do I change specific apps into a desired DPI, and everything to a different DPI ?

I have found a 3000 mAh battery on eBay for around $100 with shipping, and since I'm pretty tired of the short battery life I'm considering it. I was so embarassed when the family went skiing yesterday! My kids have smartphones (Qtek 8030 & 9100 - I keep the family on intelligent phones, my wife has a Qtek 8500 Star Trek) and they had MP3's playing all day in the slopes with only one of the three battery level stripes dissappearing, while I had to put my Atom in the car and charge it after only three hours, when it was down to less than 15 %! :( Which is why I'm considering either an expensive 3000 mAh or one of those cheap USB chargers where you just put in a regular AA (or was it AAA?) battery and hook it up to the mini USB port. So has anybody tried either of them?
