To each their own. I felt like you do at first, but then I realized I was missing out on a lot of nice touches that only a custom rom can give. Like DT2W, DT2sleep, clear all recents button, just to name a few. It's hard to go back to stock with all of these conveniences.
[Nexus 6  General] :
LED control! :)
[Nexus 6  General] wolfen69:
That too, is nice. I don't know why Google doesn't incorporate more rom-like controls in stock android.
[Nexus 6  General] :
Has anyone else noticed the "thanks" limit being increased to 15? Or am I special? ???

Did I not get the memo? ;)
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
Last time I hit my "8 limit" was Friday. When did you notice it?
[Nexus 6  General] :
Just this morning.

You're special. I just hit my "8 limit". ;)
[Nexus 6  General] :
Maybe it's a perk for XDA assist RC's? I haven't noticed it until now so perhaps it is. :good:
[Nexus 6  General] EddyOS:
I got bored of flashing ROMs every day. OK, DT2W is nice but not essential to me any more. So long as the phone can last all day, which the N6 does, I don't care for much else. And with Doze coming in M it'll increase battery life anyway! :)
[Nexus 6  General] adrynalyne:
I refuse to install the roms out there until the devs stop using google's test signing keys.

I've not found one yet that does not outside of the stock rips, which I won't install just on principle.
[Nexus 6  General] wolfen69:
I have to admit, I am looking forward to what M will bring. At least we, as Android users have choice. Unlike people into the iLife.

I've deleted a bunch of posts. We're all allowed to have our opinion on everything such as ROMs and Security.

If someone has a different opinion to you, that's fine. Everyone has different preferences and ideas on what is good/bad.

I'm so conflicted on a case guys! I'm torn between the Spigen Ultra/Air, Ringke Fusion, and Ringke Max... I'm looking for good to great grip (coming from a Supcase Unicorn Beetle) but as slim as possible...
[Nexus 6  General] Trina9:
I have a Ringke Fusion and I really like it. The Max looks like better protection but I didn't like that loop on the bottom corner. The screen protector with it is useless because it covers the proximity sensor.
[Nexus 6  General] EddyOS:
OK, so I picked up my N6 on Friday and WOW! It is huge but I love! Looks nice in my new Spigen thin white case as well...

Definitely happy with my purchase, and it's nice to be back with a Nexus

This is one my gripes about people giving page numbers instead of post numbers! For you this is page 69, but for me it's page 14. I'm on a PC and have my page length set to the maximum. I'm sure people on phones have even more pages yet!

warning! im undermedicated, and frustrated at the amount of hot reboots .

first thing pompous people would say, get log files, get lastkms, get your meds fool

ok, fine, where the hell are they, lastkmsg is blank, i KNOW there is a directory where the tombstones are kept since lollypoop, but WHERE!

someone help me and dont bother being condescending. im already busy blocking idiots at our business from pirating movies that are already on netflix.

yes, ive already done a search, dont bother posting to use search. i already get no help with the repeated error im actually able to pull from anydylog:

E/AndroidRuntime(29285): *** FATAL EXCEPTION IN SYSTEM PROCESS: main

E/AndroidRuntime(29285): java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke interface method 'void o.CK.D()' on a null object reference

holy crap im in a pissy mood.

anyway, thanks in advance for someone able to post a simple answer as in /root/here/thenhere/almostthere/tombstone/profit/
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
OK, silly question here, but you never mentioned in your post.. ROM? kernel? how's your CPU set up? governor? scheduler? hottplugging? all four cores always on? etc..
[Nexus 6  General] Migamix:
stock 5.1.1/ elementalX defaults, but that wouldn't affect the location of the system's tombstone logs in lollipop, that are now all grouped as one big directory, i know it, and have found it before by accident. buried under rubble in atlantis or something.

and considering this is not exactly an easy find, it would be nice for people to point the location to finding these files when being told " logcat or it didnt happen" thats just arrogant behaviour. much like some "full of themselves" devs ive seen make that exact statement, may be why i dont much care for their kernels .

yes, yes, i understand people post, "i crashed, why?" hold their hand for a moment and point them to the location of the logs guys, or dont bother posting and wasting threadspace

[Nexus 6  General] Migamix:
yeah, thats why i decided to ask here, instead of ticking off the "leets" and opening a new thread :P

its a monday, where im having to deal with "the weakest link" owner of a business who violated every tech rule established. im not going to begin to say how many times i find passwords on a scrap of paper, slid under a keyboard. (no joking) not to mention 2 big sheets of paper with every password imaginable for that company, on top of the desk. so, im only slightly aggravated, and then having to deal with my new N6 rebooting in ways my N5 didnt. (having a theory of it being play services related)

[Nexus 6  General] :
First, I'm sorry I can't provide a solution. :( Second, I think you'll find that most of us here, that are here to help, are not so quick to rush to judgment. :) Sure, there are a few bad apples but we let mods like [MENTION=990284]TonyStark[/MENTION] sort them out from the rest of us. :victory:

/sys/fs/pstore/ I think, but I haven't looked there in a long time(im on m now). I was actually trying to help you out with your reboots, not with finding files.
[Nexus 6  General] wbarnes4393:
I realize I am preaching to the choir here, but I get so continuously annoyed at the talking points of the "fiasco" that the Nexus 6 and its size are, while the Note 4 and the iPhone 6 plus are basically celebrated. The major appreciable difference between the Nexus 6 and the Note 4 are the on screen vs capacitive buttons. Nexus 6 includes this screen real estate in its 5.96 inch size, whereas the Note 4 does not. Check out the marked up diagram I have attached - if both phones included the rectangle at the bottom (Nexus does, Note doesnt), wouldn't the screen sizes approach being identical?
[Nexus 6  General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Actually the Note series was originally created for multi-taskers. It has a wide varity of apps designed specifically for use with the pen. It is a utilitarian device.

iPhone 6+ was simply put out there because they felt it is the next big thing :laugh::laugh:
[Nexus 6  General] wbarnes4393:
I see what you did there.
[Nexus 6  General] Android The Greek:
They had no choice but to release a premium phone with a big screen. They did it and benefited from it in the long run. They could have released a single phone with 1080p and ois, but the margin of 100 per unit more for very little increase in cost while satisfying customer demand worked out. I still think the software has suffered post jobs, but the hardware is still great.
[Nexus 6  General] EddyOS:
I'm sorry my Nexus brethren but I've exchanged my N6 for an S6. It was just too big, and I'm 6'5"!!

Anyway, still glad to be back with Android. Here's hoping the next Nexus isn't quite so big!! :D
[Nexus 6  General] matt4321:
I'm holding out for the Nexus 5 (2015), I didn't get an N6 for this reason.
[Nexus 6  General] EddyOS:
Might buy one as well if the N5 2015 is true! :D

Just wanted to say hello.....I just picked up my N6 last night! I'm excited! I was a long time GNex user, rooted running android 5.1.1, thanks to the wonderful developers here on xda! I really enjoyed my time with the GNex, and flashing roms and such. Im not sure if I will be doing all of that with this phone or not. I do wish double tap to sleep worked stock, but I do love the phone so far, no issues to report other than in-call volume seems really low, and its all the way up. I had 3 calls on it last night and all of them the other caller seemed too quiet....I ended up putting them on speaker. Is this the same for everyone?

Nice to be here

Thank you!:good:

Hey does anyone have this on Verizon and Managed to brick it? I'm planning on getting one of these(32 GB) and am confused as to how the hell are you supposed to flash ROMs if you do a wipe... I don't know how non-SD cards work. Also, my assumption that there is no difference between these nexus devices in terms of carriers, or why would Google let Verizon sell it. Oh yeah, does anyone have one of those MicroUSB USB dongle things? I'd need one if I got this...
[Nexus 6  General] Android The Greek:
The only way you could brick is if you lock your boot loader after flashing twrp and then it getting deleted or messed up.

Haloo Greetings ...Iam Verizon users N6 5.1 Is the root is the same way with the international N6 ?
[Nexus 6  General] cam30era:
LMY47Z is being pushed via OTA to international devices. Several users have reported positive results with it.
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
absolutely. and its not for sprint only :)

root is always the same, for any nexus.
[Nexus 6  General] adildroid29:
Owh so, for example, there are new updates unroot again N6 can only be updated. N6 fear can not downgrade..
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
n6 can be downgraded as well, any nexus. i know because ive done it many times over :p
[Nexus 6  General] adildroid29:
I think Motorola could be downgraded unless in moto X hehehe
[Nexus 6  General] rlukas79:
anyone with 5.1.1 getting a ton of cellular radio drain? I literally went from get .3% an hr on stand by to 1% an hr. I have the same apps disabled that I had on 5.1. Only difference is the battery drain by the radio. Ive wiped the cache. Factory reset etc. Im reloading the 5.1.1 image to see if anything changes but I may regress back to 5.1
[Nexus 6  General] guthrien:
I ran into an annoying issue flashing crazy amounts of ROMs, which was my Google account suddenly showed me as having 10+ Nexus phones, with no deactivation's left and an unusable Play Music app. I've always heard it was impossible to get Live Google support, but that's clearly not true anymore. They called me by phone in 2 minutes and wiped all the phantom devices off my account. I explained to them why it happened, and that it was the whole reason I bought a Nexus device and they were super cool about it. Said call back if it happened again.

Still the best phone decision I've ever made switching from the Note 4, I've not missed that thing one day.
[Nexus 6  General] NLBeev:
Maybe Google tried to make clear that LMY47Z is for all N6's including Sprint. Rotfl

[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
I see so many people hate on the N6 for having a ****ty camera, bad battery life, or an ugly screen. I just don't get it. This is the best damn phone I've ever used, and I've played with the S6, iPhone 6+, and the G3.

The N6 has a great balance of everything and has stock Android, it is perfect.
[Nexus 6  General] rrmzr1:
I don't get it either man. Went from htc one m8 to a note 4 then to a nexus 6 and even used an iPhone 6 plus for 2 months. In the end nexus 6 is tops period. I feel sorry for all of the note 4 users that are gonna be stuck on that outdated lollipop rom till December/January.
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
Some users don`t appreciate a stock based smartphone, they are so used too having bloatware that they miss it ;) Besides that the Nexus`s are not for everyone (thank God) ...
[Nexus 6  General] adrynalyne:
I have terrible battery life; less than half of what my Turbo could do.

However, considering what I put my phone through, I probably deserve it.
[Nexus 6  General] GeneticJim:
The N6 is my first nexus. I came from the original M Droid and worked my way up with Samsung ending with the Note 3 before my N6. I ended up rooting and flashing roms for a near pure Google rom. I figured I should just go with a nexus. Plus Project Fi helped push me into a N6.
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
That's weird. I regularly get 4-5 hours screen on time. I could easily go 2-3 days on a charge. I'm always on WiFi though.
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
Its usualy about the setup of a phone (apps, widgets, syncing etc etc.) and usage of a user and the providers signal strenght :)
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
Well duh. :P

On Android every phone is completely different, and one app can vastly change everything. I was just saying that because I am a power user but I still manage to get great battery life out of my phone.
[Nexus 6  General] adrynalyne:
Best I've ever done is 2.5 hours SOT which is half of what the Turbo could do.

That said, I am abusive:

Very poor signal half the time

I spend a lot of time installing and reinstalling apps daily

Pushbullet 24/7

Spotify

etc
[Nexus 6  General] WunderWuffle:
I've got a Note 4 (with CM12.1) currently, though my aunt wants to buy it from me.. Would the Nexus 6 be a good purchase coming from a Note 4, or would I be better off waiting for the OnePlus 2?
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
The Nexus 6 vs the OnePlus 2 is not a valid comparison. One is a flagship phone made by an extremely reputable company with real customer support while the other is a cheap, and middle ranged phone with absolutely 0 customer support and not near the build quality.
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
You might consider the Asus Zenfone 2, seems like a great midrange/flasgship phone and the reviews i read are good or off course the LG G4 wich is a great flagship phone too. Customer service of OnePlus is awfull as i seen with friends with faulty devices, slow and not professional.
[Nexus 6  General] Android The Greek:
I disagree with you. To this day the OPO is a great value smartphone. I have had many phones and the opo was one of my favorites. You had to be willing to put up with some software issues, but the build quality and performance were pretty good. Also I did have real customers and a very active forum just for that phone.

When it comes to op2 vs nexus 6, obviously the op2 will probably be the better deal when its out if its around 399. The better comparison would be the new nexus vs Op2
[Nexus 6  General] Mistertac:
I'd say if you're really into modding your phones, a Nexus is the only way to go IMO. I've never had an Opo so I can't really say much about that, some people love them some don't, same with any phone.

The Nexus 6 is the best phone I've ever had, can't beat the development we have for this phone either.
[Nexus 6  General] offthatop:
The G4 is horrible horrible horrible. So many bugs and defects. I went through 3 in a 5 day period with everything ranging from 2 faulty screens not responding to the knock or touch at all, to slow and sluggish OS to hot battery.
[Nexus 6  General] gee2012:
Realy, was considering it kinda to try it out, thought the 808 cpu didn`t overheat like the 810 and performed well :)

[Q]Need Guidance

Glad this thread exists. Long time HTC fanboy moving to Nexus 6 world with Project fi. According to fedex tracking I will receive my device with project fi simkit tomorrow. I am trying to get some answers.

Getting a device from Google - Do I still need to unlock bootloader , Install recovery and root ? If there is a specific guide for people on Project fi ?

I change DPI on all my devices. What is the best dpi setting for nexus 6 ?

How is warranty coverage from google (or motorola ?) How many years / months etc .

Thanks for the help.

-dash
[Nexus 6  General] graydiggy:
Just wanted to stop by and say hi. Been a long time fan of the Nexus line but been using strictly Samsung. Unfortunately all my Samsung phones got sold and the one I'm holding on to (T-Mobile S5) is currently without a screen.

Managed to get my hands on what I'm pretty sure was a "Sprint" Variant and decided I wanted to flash the T-Mobile firmware over. Working Damn near perfect.

I'm glad I finally made the switch over. Samsung phones can get to be rather expensive when buying them outright.

Anyway, I'm going to be in and out learning as much as I can so I can give out my hand again as an RC again. Been rather reclused as far as being an active member. Need to change that. Haha.
[Nexus 6  General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
The resident N6 guy should be by shortly to offer assistance:laugh:

[MENTION=5302753]Evolution_Tech[/MENTION] :good:
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
1. A ProjectFi device is the same as any other Nexus 6. You can unlock and root exactly the same way the rest of us do.

2. Download a terminal emulator if you are rooted and do:

$ su

(you should get a SuperSU request here)

$ wm density 493

(493 is the correct DPI for the N6 screen.)

3. Google and Moto both have a 1 year warranty.
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
493 isnt the correct dpi, 560 is. 493 is the pixels per square inch. thats different then dpi.
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
PPI should usually = your DPI. When they design the UI they base it off of DPI and PPI and the ratio between the two.

By setting the DPI to the PPI you set the screen to it's native scaling and UI elements fall into their correct places better. As well as being able display a size sensitive document on the screen and being able to relate that into real-world dimensions. Ex: you view a PDF with a scale on it. You can zoom in and compare the dimensions of the PDF to a real 8.5 x 11 piece of paper because the UI knows exactly how dense the screen is.
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
DPI vs PPI, so you can read what the difference is.. http://99designs.com/designer-blog/2013/02/26/ppi-vs-dpi-whats-the-difference/

and by a google designer.. http://m.fastcompany.com/3039564/the-difference-between-ppi-vs-dpi-explained-by-a-google-designer
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
I'm very aware of PPI and DPI as I do a lot of video and Photoshop work. My original point still stands.
[Nexus 6  General] :
I was off fixing phones and tending to XDA assist. Luckily there's lots of helpful people in this forum. :)
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
original point? that dpi is 493? well, your original point is still wrong. its 560 dpi, whether you like it or not. aa again, dpi and ppi ARE different.
[Nexus 6  General] TonyStark R.I.P.:
OK, so you both made me search... I hate searching:eek:

So PSA: while rooted, set your N6 to its native 493 DPI (self.nexus6)

So let's chill and set it to whatever the heck one wants:good:
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
"Nexus 6 has a quantized density of 560 dpi, which falls in between the xxhdpi and xxxhdpi primary density buckets."

from http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2014/10/getting-your-apps-ready-for-nexus-6-and.html?m=1 ;)

btw, i use 532dpi, as it makes the play music widget look much better.
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
As much as you want to argue, the native DPI of the Nexus 6 is 492. The DPI that Google set is 560. They chose that to make things bigger on the screen. It doesn't change the fact that the 1440p panel the N6 has has a native DPI and PPI of 493 as TonyStark pointed out.

But as he also mentioned set it to whatever you want. It's Android. If you don't like it, change it.
[Nexus 6  General] :
Good thing you don't work for the assist team then. ;)

I am becoming a master of the XDA search feature. :cowboy:
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
the way that i see it, the dpi is 560. to get the dpi of 493, you have to set it manually. and if you have to set it manually to 493, then its not "native". " native" would be whatever it comes with by default.
[Nexus 6  General] GrayBoltWolf:
I can't stand XDA's search. It is extremely complicated and you have to be an expert to find anything. I guess it's just vBulliten really but it still sucks. They need to use Google's free search caching or something.

---------- Post added at 02:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 PM ----------

Native meaning the PPI of the panel. The 560 DPI is just a software setting that Google changed.
[Nexus 6  General] simms22:
i never use xda search, but google does a good job in finding xda threads/info for me.
[Nexus 6  General] :
I have found that if you enter your search query in Google search, and end it with XDA , it will produce results exclusive to XDA. However, now that I primarily use the XDA search feature, it works quite well if there are relevant threads in existence. Trust me, I use it very frequently for XDA assist. :)

Or perhaps I am just a Jedi.

;)
