[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GW Show:
Good afternoon everyone. I have been looking at several posts in regards to what people live/hate and some issues people have been having.

My situation is that I am grandfathered into Verizon's unlimited data. I work at an emergency communications center that does not give employees WiFi. So I give myself and my brother access though the hotspot and use about 40-50gb a month. I'm currently using the DE Moto X 2013 which has just gotten beaten down over time.

What I'm looking to find out is (and from what I have seen there are no issues) that I can root the Nexus 6 to give myself hotspot without Verizon's verification. Also looking to see if it's worth the phone. I have seen several posts with connection issues, but others saying they have never had any problems. I know Google is looking to put out new phones in August roughly, but two things concern me. My current Moto X is horribly slowed down even after wiping/installing roms which makes me want to make a purchase soon. The other issue is that I know Verizon has a horrible track record with working with Google and I'm scared that even if Verizon will allow a new Nexus type phone on their network, it won't be for several months later.

I appreciate everyone's thoughts on this.

generally, if you have questions, they get posted in the q&a/help section, not into general. people don't look there to help people or to answer questions. so I found your post here, in the wrong section, and just requested that a mod move your thread to the right section.

That was a mistake on my part, posted though my phone and thought I clicked the Q/A thread. Thanks for the move :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imnuts:
No issues with my phone on VZW yet. I haven't rooted it, but I don't see why one couldn't seeing as it can be unlocked. I got my from Best Buy, swapped in my nano SIM and off I went.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dfenser:
I finally got around to rooting my Google Play purchased N6 so I could use my VZW unlimited on a hotspot. I rooted using the simple method in Wug's tools and then edited the build prop line and rooboted. Works perfectly on 5.1.1.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mward7221:
I bought the Verizon Nexus 6 at full price to keep unlimited data and came from the moto x 2013 just like you. I just unlocked the bootloader, rooted and added the line to the build prop file and everything works great. I use the hotspot at work and home and it is working just fine. I didn't know if I would like this large of a phone but I actually do like it. I don't use my nexus 9 near as much though.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquireSCA:
If you like the phone, get the phone. You will lose unlimited data before too long anyway, they are going to get rid of the plans altogether...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GW Show:
Awesome, thanks for everyone's help. Ordered one and an looking forward to it!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoMorpheus1337:
Why do you say that?

Don't get me wrong, UDP is the only thing keeping me with vzw, so that would be my exit queue.

OP, I got the Google places 64gb version, flashed the vzw build, rooted, enabled hotspot.

I used their build so I could get the vzw app and the visual voicemail and the signal is superior to my old note 3.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquireSCA:
Because VZW is talking about getting rid of them, and unlimited plans are going the way of the dodo across the board with all carriers... Even Sprint is talking about getting rid of them. You are not grandfathered in in the sense that most people use that term. Your contract for Unlimited expired. They are still giving it to you, but they are no longer contractually obligated to since the 2 year contract you signed with them, expired long ago... You are getting it now more as a courtesy, because they haven't bothered to boot you off, but its coming.

Unlimited made sense years ago when people didn't consume much bandwidth on phones. Now when people are pulling down 50GB a month, they aren't going to let that go on forever...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Restola:
2 cups and a string had superior signal to my old note 3!

I found the note 4 to be a huge improvement, and the nexus 6 is in line with the note 4.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathshead:
I had the Note 4 on Verizon for 6 months, my wife still has one as I havent found a "sucker" yet to swap for a Nexus 6.

After using the Note 4 daily for all these months and going to the Nexus 6 it was like the Wizard of Oz when it goes to color,

effortlessly fast, The Note 4 lollipop update is a complete disaster, My wife's phone is 100% stock and its constantly stuttering and freezing up.

its junk.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoMorpheus1337:
"Courtesy" is not on vzw vocabulary, there must be another reason. We are talking about vzw here, that company is so evil that the ceo breakfast includes a cup of baby blood.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SquireSCA:
Yeah, LOL.

Well, they just haven't bothered, is what it comes down to, but with even Spring throwing in the towel on Unlimited, these old plans won't last too much longer...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoMorpheus1337:
As good as their service is, i would gladly jump to the 30 bucks plan on Tmo if they remove my unlimited.

No more locked down bootloaders!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defvayne:
Had the same issue. And lucky me found a friend that was looking to trade wife's n6 for another phone. Traded my Note 4 for it and never been more happy to do so. Great phone. Root was a must which was denied on Vz Note 4.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] backdown00:
The amount of people who still have an UDP are the minority. On top of that, the last time Verizon tried to make changes to the UDP people, they got a huge backlash publically and reversed their course of action:

I'm sure eventually Verizon will axe unlimited data, but by that time we will all be on Google Fi anyway :).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] grypho:
Hi, it looks great, is it compatible with 240x240 screens?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sens:
hey, yes, great work, looks realy nice. it is possible to turn it 180 degrees?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] d.cortez:
pretty snappy! is there a left/right cursor key?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
Hmmm, no, but do you need them?

Oh, got, it, to delete or correct the text...hmmm

Weel, you can select the text with your stylus and i think you can cut and paste also, but that wouldnt work very good, at least with my flash-actionscript limitations, sorry... :(

its made for 320x240 but it -should- resize itself for any screen, but thats something only the flash player itself can manage. Let me know how he reacts to your screen...

The keys would be too small in 240x320 and it would loose its purpose... :(

but, yes, it is possible, just not in a direct way... Maybe in the next version, but again, they keys would be really small, when compared to the landscape version...

My Qtek S100 is on portrait mode, but I still use that on landscape, it doesnt affect anything in the system, just gives me more room to have the full keyboard keys in that qwerty kind of way.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] maevro:
Yeah, I was wondering that too. I was thinking of picking up a Trinity and need something like this, but I would like to be able to delete things.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sens:
Sorry about the missunderstanding ... i mean landscape too but turned to the left not to the right like now.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] monamibouli:
thks for this freeware; work fine on my wizard with WM6
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
well, right now you can, but only the last character written... you can also remove things manually by sellecting the text with your stylus and choosing CUT (not sure about this), but im afraid i dont know how to make actioscript in flash that lets you delete part of the texto in the middle, sorry...

:(

OH, yes, that's easy. On the next release then...

:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
New version:

- keypad sound

- customized key alignment

- screen rotation

- New default skin (just because)

- Minimize+copy

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] meschle:
Nice app i like it - not really needed on my wizard but usefull on my artemis.

I was looking for the revision details of v 1.1 in the first post - can the changes be added there too ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
Didnt get it, the new things are listed in the post before yours....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] meschle:
Sorry - place that text in the first post please - i.e. edit the first post.

If you check most of the software releases they do it in this format - cheers.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
but I did that... :D

only made a new post with a resume of the new things.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] meschle:
Got ya twolf - my reading is a little slow :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] abc001:
Two questions here for improvement:

1. & is missing from &Key1 at data.txt, initialized by the program - leading key 1 undefined, but this can be corrected by mydata.txt.

2. &FAVSkin cannot be initialized by mydata.txt - always start with default skin, but it can be changed by D-Pad.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
1 - yes, that is normal, the first variable cannnot have the & in order to work in flash.

2 - Hmmmm.... I believe it works, he just assumes the jpg file as a sefault, if it doesnt exists, he then selectes the number you picked in that variable as the skin you want. But yes, it can be changed via D-pad always during the use of the application.

Are you sure it doesnt work? You did configured it in mydata.txt, right?

New version 1.2
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Charles::
Before I DL, question. I have a Tilt and the only time the screen goes landscape is when I slide out the keyboard. This would be perfect if I could keep the slider closed, yet when I choose your app as the virtual kb it would auto rotate the screen if needed. Does that happen or can it be made to do that??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
I dont know if you refer to my app...

I just made a sideways flash file, it does not change the system to landscape in any way, the program is just sideways.

you can test that by minimizing my app (with the top right arrow) to see your today.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rcf2:
Great softkeyboard. Any chance to get one skin in the bowl, 'smile' shape for VGA devices as the Advantage?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
You can use any skin you want, just make a jpg file, as it says in the readme.

;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xda-addict:
Hi twolf, nice work,

One minor requirement:

I found a nice keyboard on www.fingertouchpro.com (got a newsletter), there you can see the PRO version (as the other one is freeware)

Can you add localized support? I would need both German and French

That Fingertouch PRO also has T9 for these languages. So if you add these features I'll give it a try!

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
hmmm... it is possible but your asking me to create a huge words database for each language... i cant do that...sorry

:D
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkFrenzy:
my Lg G2 F320L is shutting down automatically after high temprature detected. every time i switch on the phone it shuts down.

how to disable temprature detection or how to solve this problem
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Choristav:
I'm not sure if you want to disable it, that could pretty much burn your device down.

How about giving some factual information? Rom version, kernel, settings, apps running in background? It shouldn't just shut down on its own, and if it does, it might be just a hardware defect.

Is it actually hot to the touch?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkFrenzy:
No it's not hot.I m using F320L.everyrom,stock ROM even worse

Looks awesome,going to give it a go:)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] ahvdesign:
Clean, minimalistic, smooth, and incredibly small size. I love it! I found a single issue so far and I'm not sure if it is me or the ROM yet. Can't seem to get my recent apps to pop up when I hold the home button down. Besides that, this one is perfect for me.

---------- Post added at 09:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

Couldn't find the edit button for posts. Figured out the issue. Just had to change the option for the home button and change the long press to what I wanted. Good to go! Awesome ROM!!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] DBruce80:
Running smooth as butter! Thank you for this ROM! I've mostly given up on other ROMs for my SPH-L720 because of various bugs that stopped me from enjoying my phone. I've been using CM ROMs, most recently CM12.1, for a long time for it's stability but didn't like the lack of customizability. This ROM is fantastic! Running with stock kernal and no mods. Going to try a different kernal, probably Alucard, Xposed, and maybe a script package and I'll post how they work. Only problem, Play Store won't work as it says it needs background data to be enabled, which it already is. This may be a user problem, but it's not a huge problem. If any fix is known, let me know. Otherwise, I love it!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] NIFTYTAT411:
When I flashed this, half my music went into the unknown artist place, is their a fix or way to get it back to the way it was before?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] kpakpo89:
Okay I got it. It was my internet connection. Really liking this rom. Its so smooth! I changed the DPI to 360 and everything looks awesome except for the big a$$ keyboard lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] ahvdesign:
After a couple of days of use I have a pretty severe battery drainage issue. My phone is in my pocket about 80% of the day. It gets maybe an hour of actual use but before my work day is over (maybe 10-11 hours unplugged) it dies. Battery stats when there was 15% battery remaining show 12% use by phone and 2% by screen with maybe 5% total use by other miscellaneous apps over this time (I don't even make calls really so I have no idea why phone drains it so much). Those numbers aren't really adding up at all. This is the only ROM I have had this issue with. Any ideas? Everything else works fantastically, I'd hate to switch out at this point.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] liquidrea1ity:
Anyone wondering whether or not to flash this, spare yourself the internal monologue, do yourself a favor, and flash this. Fantastic, and exactly what I was looking for

360 dpi has disappeared from the selection menu on latest build
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] beezie42:
Rom seems to be running great for me. No bugs so far that I can see. Been running it about 4 days now. Great battery life for lollipop. Good customization that isn't so overwhelming.

Only thing that I could find that might be a bug, is I can't use the navigation rings without having the navigation bar at the bottom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] cybrstudd:
So far so good. The first day my battery life was horrible, but the last couple days have been great. I went ahead and updated to the 6-20 build just now, so we'll see how it goes. I did have bluetooth flake out on me the other day, and after a reboot, it worked fine again. Not sure what happened there. Everything runs super fast and smooth. Loving this ROM!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] sandman121383:
Only real issue I have found is that Bluetooth will randomly turn off after being connected with a device and then won't turn back on.

I'm on 6/20 build
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] sandman121383:
Just flashed 6/22 haven't tried Bluetooth yet. Maybe it wasn't even addressed, I haven't checked github. Seen the new build figured what the hell. Awesome ROM though!

Quick addition. Maybe it's a known issue but HDR isn't working I'm using Google camera.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] sandman121383:
The latest build has no cellular service..... Going back to 6/23 build
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] RedRover88:
Any confirmation? Does the camera crash (forward) in 6/23?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] sandman121383:
The camera works but HDR does not work. i forgot to mention that i did check the APN settings in the 6/25 build. there were no presets and when trying to add sprint settings manually they would not save.. so i flashed back on 6/23 and APN's are back. hope this helps some people.

No Sim Card

Hey guys,

Coming over from AICP, did a full factory reset and clean flash, new gapps and all.

Getting a "Insert Sim" on bootup.

Anybody else experiencing this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] sandman121383:
Same here. I get no cell service on last 2 updates. Other small issues like switching between apps is slow or it just doesn't happen, and no HDR mode in camera. The 6/23 is what I'm back on. If devs want I can log.

I've just been posting what I'm experiencing. This ROM is great I love the new features and menu setups and such definitely check it out if u haven't already!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] DBruce80:
I had the same problem, only that it did boot up but said that there wasn't a SIM card inserted. Went back to the 6/20 build and it's working perfectly. Hope the SIM issue is resolved soon, I am itching to use the new features on the more recent builds. Great job devs!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] TheWingerGuarantee:
My phone is also not detecting a sim, having just dirty flashed the 6.27.

Loving Exodus overall though. Keep up the great work!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] RedRover88:
I think the issue may be the APN not holding. I have seen this with at least one other lollipop ROM not cyanogen based. I had to flash FreedomPop APN Fix for my carrier. For 6-20. This may be a large upstream bug.

6-21-15 build.

this rom basically makes my phone worthless. if you care about calls or txts stay away!!!!

cell service drops non stop. it wont remember settings like prefered network, and keeps putting me in 2g which doesnt work. switching to lte works for a minute, then the rom says FU and drops service again and changes your pref. network again.

THE ROM IS DISRESPECTING WHAT I TELL IT TO DO!!!

lol

battery is the worst ive ever seen. went from 100 to 50 in hour or so, with nothing running

even in airplane mode, with 40% battery i woke up and phone was dead

facebook dont work on wifi correctly. prolly just a facebook bug though

cant remove the stupid lock screen even tho i have lock screen set to off

any thing i click on the stupid lock screen loads a browser that does not work (like a news feed i guess?)

i want this rom to work. theres a lot i see i like. sooo much potential here

but the 6-21 build is literally the worst rom i have ever used . im deleting it as we speak

i hate nightlys in general

anyone using this rom, please post what versions have been the most stable for you, and if you can kill the stupid lockscreen, so i can switch to one of them

i dont care about blutooth. dont use it, so cant report on it

did clean flash full wipe blah blah

using gs4 720t triband sprint
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] RedRover88:
Not using 720t, just 720. But try 6-20. See my post page 2 for issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] sandman121383:
6/28 cellular service is back. The sim card issue has been resolved. Flash away guys! Awesome ROM!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Original Android Develop] RedRover88:
Clean or upgrade? I did not have such luck. Back to Stock OD2 for me.
