[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
If you want to use T-Mobile in the future you just flash the LYZ28E rom.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Well all Nexus 6 used to get the same updates but tmob and red, wanted approval on theirs - and now we know why.

Since google are still sending these updates and they update onto generic builds, they can only use your sim card as the identifier.

If you leave root out of it, the only way you can avoid the vzw update is to manually update to something else (something vzw updates won't work on). Each OTA looks for a specific build to flash on and won't flash on anything else.

If you do accept the vzw update, you'll never get away from them unless you manually flash a full factory rom.

Bringing root back into it, OTA will never flash anyway, so you'll have to either manually flash factory or flash rom.zips in TWRP
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
This is already explaining a lot! So, given that, as I said, I'm not bog standard non-carrier specific 5.0 (and I've yet to even migrate my SIM over) the suggested action would be to download LMY47E 5.1 (as 5.1.1 is not yet out for VZW as they ALWAYS seem to be last to the party) and flash it via TWRP? And I can do that over my LNX07M build?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endlessryan:
Great info, very useful.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
There were no carrier specific ROMs when Nexus 6 came out. Using any rom on any Nexus and they will all act the same, except you wont get improved volte or wifi calling on those carriers. Their changes will not prove detrimental on other carriers
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
Now the murky seas are de-murkyfing!

So go for the VZW build for now with the knowledge and understanding that if I ever decide to bid them a less than fond adieu, I'd be best at that point flash a factory image OR flash another carrier specific ROM once I've chosen the new carrier?

And should I root now, or post the 5.1 flash? I'm guessing post because I'd assuming flashing 5.1 would blow my root away.

I assume I can flash post VZW 5.1 because the boatloader is still all mine and the flash doesn't effect that. Right?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Depends how you do it.

Google factory images are flashed from a computer using fastboot.

You may be able to find a rom.zip of that version on xda that can be flashed via TWRP.

As long as you aren't flashing an incremental OTA, you can flash over anything. OTA actually patch files not replace them, so they can only be flashed on the rom they are intended for.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endlessryan:
Why not go with a custom rom like chroma? Get 5.1.1 now and personally it works really well.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
I'm sorry if that sudden flash of the light coming on in my head just blinded you, but that's what happens when things start to make sense!

OK, so, this all being the case, and that the OTA's are incremental, then in order to go 5.1 with the build from http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/ref-nexus-6-stock-ota-urls-t2906493 then I WOULD need 5.0.1? Would that work though if I'm on a generic build since, if it's expecting to patch existing VZW files, wouldn't it fail because they're not there? Failing that I'd need to find a flashable 5.1 for VZW (if one even exists)?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
But it wouldn't have the VoLTE improvements, etc, right? Besides, right now I'd like to stay as stock as possible as it's not just my phone I'm working on, both myself and my wife got one at the same time and I know she will most definitely NOT want anything other than stock.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endlessryan:
Someone could correct me if im wrong, but if you have another phone and enable advanced calling on it, then put that sim into your nexus you'll have all the features no matter which rom you're on. Its what i did and i've never had a single issue with VoLTE or voicemail.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
On that first update from vzw, there are no vzw files to patch. It's the android files in referring to. But yes, each specific OTA will.only work on 1 specific rom. The OTA script checks the rom and kernel to ensure everything is as expected before it flashes.

If you want root, you should forget about understanding OTAs anyway as its wasted brain power.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
Yeah, I know that OTA's now check everywhere before they'll be accepted, a real PITA but what you gonna do?

So, I'll need to do this piecemeal then and go to LRX22C from LNX07M, then LMY47E from LRX22C which would get me 5.1, Big Red style.

Once i'm on LMY47E I should then root? If so then I guess I should unroot pre taking the 5.1.1 OTA whenever it comes and reroot again?

And just to clarify, NONE of this would lead me to have a locked bootloader NOR lose the ability to reroot?

Almost getting there! It looks like from looking at another post that I'd probably need to get a new SIM card to enable HD and the VoLTE stuff afterwards.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endlessryan:
First thing i would do before you do anything is make sure that bootloader is unlocked.. None of this will change you back to a locked bootloader and it'll help if it all goes wrong for you.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
Yeah, that the first thing I did as mentioned in Post #1. Thanks for the reminder though for anyone else who comes along...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You can't unroot without flashing a factory image.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] endlessryan:
So it just comes back to, if you root/twrp, just forget about OTA's?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
Thought SuperSU had a root removal option. That not good enough to survive the OTA detection process?

Is there another way to get the VZW specific changes in 5.1 to enable VoLTE without taking an OTA (even one that you install by hand)?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
Seems to look promising: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/general/stock-verizon-nexus-6-firmware-image-t3053052
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomerbubba:
I bought a Nexus 6 direct from the Google Play Store a few weeks ago. Before I ever activated it on any carrier, I just used my WiFi connection to initialize things. Google automatically pushed out several incremental updates, culminating in an install of 5.1.1 (Build LMY47Z). Only after that was done did I obtain a carrier SIM (from Sprint, in my case) and activate the phone there.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It leaves stuff behind so its not sufficient to unroot for OTA.

Most custom ROMs support verizon volte.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
Did you have a custom recovery or basic?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rachel Ambler:
You've been most illuminating and helpful! Thanks so much for bearing with me :)

My phone was bone stock, and still is. I just followed the prompts to download the Android updates that Google pushed out.

[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] JackHanAnLG:
Hey guys. First proper charge from around 3% too 100% and I'm getting battery drain already, I thought this issue was resolved in lollipop? Not the mention the emense heat that comes off of this device

Check out the picture and get back to me. Thanks.

Jack
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] scoobydooby:
Same thing is happening to me... I don't find that the drain is really so bad, as I still get pretty great battery life, but does appear that this issue is still present in lollipop. Seems pretty wide spread among Android users.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] JackHanAnLG:
I had an iphone for about 5 months. Went back to android and the problem still persists :( I got 3.5 hours of screen on time yesterday. Take a look at this
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] projectmayhem22:
Also getting battery drain, the main offender seems to be the "mobile standby" which is always around 50-65% for me.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] beardedwonder:
I think this was an error in reporting in the stock firmware, I haven't had a problem with the battery, in fact it's been really good. Since updating to B132 (GRA-L09) the battery usage seems to be reported correctly.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] projectmayhem22:
Interesting, I'm not sure what the normal drain should be then. My HTC One had a pretty good battery life, but it seems with this phone the battery drains quite fast when I'm using Chrome and WhatsApp etc. The power saver reports Chrome uses a max of around 10% but the rest use very little %, yet it seems I'm using around 30-40% of the battery in around half an hour.

Do you think using a custom rom (when they become available) would be any different?
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] beardedwonder:
Not sure if a custom rom would help. Are you rooted? If so you should have a look at betterbatterystats which should show you what's using up the battery.

When I'm mostly on wifi I can get 5 hours of screen time with 32+ hours running time.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] sorin8181:
i have the same problem with the "mobile standby" batery drain

i did a clear data/cache then factory reset, and now it's ok

androyd system still drain batery pretty much

sorry for my bad english :)
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] dippers:
Was going to wait for a few roms to be released before rooting, but the battery life seems so poor I think I'll do it just to find out.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] marti28:
I've had the same Problem with the battery drain and analysed this with the Wakelock Detektor (needs root). Cause was the "NlpWakeLock" thats part of the Google Services. Then I disable the Google Location History everything went well. They are a lot of of useres, who have the same problem. The only real solution (If you want to use the Location history) is a Xposed module for that you need a working Xposed framework.
[Huawei P8 Questions & Answers] projectmayhem22:
I have now disabled Google location history, hopefully this fixes the problem for me too.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liquidzoo:
Little bit about my Android history:

Had the OG Droid on VZW for a while and really loved the phone. It worked well and was a solid option.

Went to AT&T to get an iPhone for me and my wife...6 months later VZW got the iPhone and I wished I had never switched (had unlimited data on VZW, missed that boat with the carrier switch).

Used the 3GS for 2 years and liked, but didn't really love it.

Got a Galaxy S2 Skyrocket (the first LTE Galaxy) and loved it...at first. Went on a business trip and everything went to hell. Drained the battery twice in an 8 hour work day (had a decent signal), phone started rebooting randomly and heating up. Switched back to the 3GS for the remainder of the trip. Came home, flashed to stock and it was fine...until I went on vacation, then I had the same issues.

Used the 3GS until I got a 5S. Using that now.

Really want to get back to Android. I like it a lot and the Nexus seems like a solid phone. Do I switch to it, the G4, something else, or wait? Based on what I'm seeing, one of my lines has an upgrade available (I refuse to rent my phone through the installment plans), so I can use that upgrade to replace my phone.

I know this is really a decision for me to make, I'm just looking for opinions. Being that this is the Nexus 6 forum, I fully expect for it to win; and I'm ok with that :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] v2.2v:
I just got the Nexus 6 on yesterday. The last Nexus I had was the Galaxy Nexus. I just came from the S6 and I couldn't be happier. The S6 was a disaster and the last time I checked the G4 still has root issues. Get the Nexus 6 and happy flashing!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liquidzoo:
I did read 1 comparison of the G4 with the Nexus last month when the G4 came out and in testing, though the screen on the G4 (according to the reviewer) was slightly better, and it had the removable battery and SD card capability the battery life on the Nexus 6 was far better (like 2 hours+ better).

That alone was pushing me to the Nexus 6 (still not convinced that my issues with my Skyrocket weren't due to the SD Card). Well, that was among the items anyway.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RobinZenon:
Hey, I need some help with my Samsung Galaxy s4.

I rooted my phone for a week now and the last couple of days I noticed my phone is getting very warm. Only using Chrome and WhatsApp. It's insane hot when I charge it. So I was thinking to factory reset or hard reset my phone, but is it possible with a rooted phone? I never flashed a ROM and only downloaded some rooted apps like Greenify, Root booster etc.

Thank you in advance.

Robin.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] creepyncrawly:
Rooting your phone gives you access to the root of the file system, but is does not change any ordinary functionality of your phone. So you can perform a factory reset whether you are rooted or not. Also, I would be surprised if there is any connection between rooting the phone and overheating. It is more likely that the overheating is related to something you installed, either before or after rooting.

It is best to perform a factory reset from within recovery. Boot into stock 3e recovery and perform a "wipe data/factory reset." Before you do so, make backups of anything that you do not want to lose in the data partition, such as text messages, address book, call logs, etc. The data on your sdcard will not be affected.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corvus.corax:
My device is a 9506. Some updates today failed because it said I am out of space on the device's internal 16gb drive. I am on 5.0.1. and not rooted. As of now, system memory is 4.20gb, used space is 4.05gb, cached data is 3.41gb, misc. files is 3.29gb and available space is 1.05gb. How do I regain space? Delete apps? Clear or remove some things (which)? Move some apps to the external SD? I am kind of at a standstill now.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:

I had moved all that stuff already. In the end, I removed a couple of apps I don't use and used SD Maid Pro to clean up a bunch of app caches and it cleared almost 3 gigabytes. So all is well now. Is there a way to change to PIT file like I could on my old S2? That was a very good solution.

[Sony Xperia M] bbthebeard@gmailcom:
Can anybody advise me how i can keep my recovery (TRWP), every time i try a new ROM zip it gets wiped and a new type of recovery tool gets installed ie CWM or CM recovery which then makes it impossible to restore a TWRP back up. I then have to set up FlashTool and Fastboot install a .img from a rom with TWRP recovery. Then i can restore. Seems a pain in the but. I have previously rooted other devices ie Kindle Fire hd and never lost or over written recovery sectors when flashing new roms.
[Sony Xperia M] theperson333:
Here you go: http://xdaforums.com/xperia-m/devel...-recoveries-custom-roms-t3016507/post58515438

The reason this happen is that Xperia smartphones do not have recovery partition. The recovery is part of the kernel (boot.img), so the kernel comes with a recovery. The link above has a recovery with is flashed onto the FOTA (over-the-air) upgrade partition, which is not used if you have an unlocked bootloader.
[Sony Xperia M] bbthebeard:
Works great

Thanks for that. I had previously tried it but used the latest twrp zip file instead of the 2 in lower box and recovery was totally unstable. However now done FOTA-TWRP.zip and flashed 2 different roms retaining twrp recovery everytime.
