[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
I was using a TGSP bought on ebay for 200rs. But I don't have a device now, planning to buy this once I get my 'perfect' phone. Already asked few questions and the seller was very responsive, reviews also good.
[Nexus 6P General] dvsk69:
Link please
[Nexus 6P General] shayonpal:
How did you customize the color profile on the Nexus 6P? The only option I can find is the sRGB.
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
I guess he's on a custom ROM/kernel.
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
:good:
[Nexus 6P General] manny351:
Thanks, has anyone else purchase 6p from a store or retailers and faced this tint issue? Is this problem isolated to Flipkart's stock?
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
A different perspective. Looking forward for people's response!
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Wow.. Which Pouch is this one? Looks very nice.. Can the size be customized so that I can put in along with my Spigen Rugged Armor case?
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
Nope, cant customize the fitting. For my nexus 6p with tempered glass it goes in properly quite snug , but not too tight may be you can give it a try.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
Anyone who got a recent replacement with no issues with respect to display? I mean no tints etc?

Also, anyone who got a Dec build?
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
I can see many good pouches option here https://paytm.com/shop/search/?q=Nexus 6p from Totta, PayTM gives more discount using their Coupons.
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
This is pure leather. Totta is faux leather. I m a fan of leather products and accessories & with aging leather products become more mature & attractive.

Got OTA at 1 am IST, 16th Dec :P

Got updated from MDB08L to 6.0.1.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
MDB08L is 6.0.0

Check again. The build number has to be MMB29M for a 6.0.1
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Agreed. Where did you buy it from?
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
I too received the update but cant as im currently rooted. Will wait for a system root & then update the new firmware or may be wait for a major update.

FK is now sending tech support guys home to inspect the device. I was hoping to return mine as it has a slight pink tint. I am worried that they may not honour it if they don't think it's "that big" an issue.

Any thoughts or workarounds?
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Where did you get this information from and which city are they doing this presently in?
[Nexus 6P General] laemo:
New Delhi. They are doing this for me, which is the reason why I am asking.
[Nexus 6P General] PratikP:
This is something new!

Probably the amount of returns is humongous and this is a counter measure taken by FK to separate the genuine from the not-so-genuine cases.

Just try to explain the executive the issues. If he doesn't listen to it then try to explain that even if it is not a 'big issue', I will not accept it. You have paid a premium for the device and you expect nothing less than a premium experience!

On a side note though, what was the reason for a replacement?

Cheers

Pratik
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
This is probably the result of what Flipkart & Huawei feel are large numbers of frivolous returns. If the representative feels it is ok then it will get difficult to convince them for a replacement. Hope I don't have issues with my ~2 week old handset which has been working well so far
[Nexus 6P General] laemo:
I have a slight pink tint on the right edge of the device. Other than that, the phone is perfect. But also partly I want to return to try and get a g64 (I have a g32).
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
Not sure if they'll offer you an upgrade path. There's going to be a like for like replacement only.
[Nexus 6P General] laemo:
I was thinking of getting a refund. And then purchasing a g64. I was hoping they don't shove a replacement down my throat and then after a few tries expect me to ask for a refund. With this human check, I guess it'll be interesting to see if they even acknowledge the issue.
[Nexus 6P General] hacksome:
One FK support guy told me they were getting a huge amount of returns in 6P. Now they are resorting to NOT issue replacements without thorough tech checkup. They are instructing users to install an app to do the remote diagnostics as well.
[Nexus 6P General] sameerm02:
I asked for replacement for my yellow warm screen, they (flipkart) installed their app, checked and asked me, refund or replacement, I am taking replacement

I had opted for a replacement for my 2nd device. Got it today and happy to inform that the display is bright, clear, Tint free. Silver 64Gb.. Finally I'm done with this replacement game for the display unless some other issue pops up, which seems unlikely atm.
[Nexus 6P General] laemo:
I'll let you know how the tech inspection goes. Hopefully they will acknowledge the issue.
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Got the USB-C to USB-A cable delivered today. Had ordered it from Google Store India. Quality of the cable is the same as USB-C to USB-C bundled one. Made by Foxconn. Charging and data transfer both works just fine.

Expecting the delivery of USB-C to USB-A female cable too in a while. I can't believe I spent ₹1.8k for cables :silly:
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
I ordered 3 days back but haven't got any shipping information. How many days it took to deliver? Is it coming directly from Singapore?
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
I had ordered the USB-C USB-A cable on the 12th and it was shipped on 14th. USB-C USB-A female cable was ordered on 14th and it was shipped yesterday. I am from Mumbai, both are coming from Bhiwandi, Mumbai. Maybe they have warehouses at different parts of India and as I am from Mumbai it was shipped from their Bhiwandi warehouse.
[Nexus 6P General] hacksome:
Yes. Bought another one as well.
[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:
which one ?

Edit: Almost same one is available much cheaper

Build date 11-11-2015, Silver 64gb.

Bright, clean, warm and white, Tint free.

Image rendering to be ignored if appears otherwise. So happy to say that it wasn't true that all devices with this build date were defective.
[Nexus 6P General] hacksome:
I don't know if they are the same. I bought from the link i posted.
[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:
Okay.. How is the quality..
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
I feel you all should not get fizzled by the fact that these guys are sending "techies" home. Let them come. If yours is a genuine case, I don't see any reason why your request for replacement or refund should be rejected.

Like [MENTION=7014136]PratikP[/MENTION] & [MENTION=4438668]Sharp-Razr[/MENTION] have mentioned, this is just to ensure that frivoulous requests are kept aside. Probably, they felt, after looking at the returned items, that people are resorting to unfair practices to ensure they "continuously" keep using new phones.

Sadly, I also see this as a stepping stone towards Flipkart abolishing their "30 day return" policy.
[Nexus 6P General] ayush84:
cannot deny that among so many lemon 6Ps, many good pieces also must have gone back and FK discovered these normal pieces.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Good move by Flipkart. Nothing to worry as a genuine issue would be accepted by them without much tussle. Bad news for those who were seeking replacement even after an app crash. At the end of the day they are here for doing business and that's what they're doing.
[Nexus 6P General] ayush84:
exactly!
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
A very good move by Flipkart! I guess too many people are abusing their 30 days returns policy.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
There is a flip side to this as well. There are incompetent people in Flipkart, who just do not see the issue. And so, even genuine cases could be marked as "false" return.

EDIT: I hope I am wrong, but just saying this could be a possibility.
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Got the USB-C USB-A female OTG cable just now. Working fine on N6P alongwith Nexus Media Importer.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
My phone has the same build date. No issues with the screen or its performance. Hope it remains this way.

For some reason this doesn't surprise me. I am quite sure quite a few would have been frivolous returns for e.g. bloke changes his mind about buying the handset & returns it claiming a defect, opts for a refund. This is just an example.

I guess Huawei/FKT put their foot down after discovering some of the returned devices had no manufacturing defects. IMO it's time they brought a sense of balance to this return policy.

Thing is, it is these very same returns which will be repaired/refurbished and offered as replacements to those customers whose devices fail during warranty.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
No. Not as per Flipkart's policy. They claim their products are 100% new, unused products. It was further claimed by the CSC people as well. So, they cannot send in the returned items as replacements.

If they did, they'll get sued in court for saying something to customer and doing something totally different.
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Exactly. They did the exact same thing with Motorola Nexus 6. My Nexus 6 failed twice and both the replacement devices I got had Flipkart sticker on it's boxes. The third replacement I got had uneven display and I decided to live with it until I finally got rid of it for N6P. I'm done with Motorola.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
Not sure if you are aware but Flipkart offers refurbished handsets when Nexus 6 warranties are called in. And yeah, so does Apple with their iPhones/iPads etc.

They will either repair the handset or will offer perfectly functional handsets as replacements. The warranty (see Pt 7) does not specifically mention you will get a brand new handset. Huawei is honoring the terms of the warranty.

There's absolutely no standing for a court case.

EDIT - See message from [MENTION=1225735]andr0idfreak[/MENTION].

Believe it or not, but I have had zero issues with my Nexus 6. In fact so happy have I been, I even bought a second handset earlier this month.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
Hmmm.....I didn't know that.

But if they have the option of providing us with refurbished phones, then I don't think they have anything to crib about.
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Consider yourself very lucky :o

I had to run behind Motorola/Motorola ASC for literally three months in separate incidents and it was a nightmare. The current Nexus 6 that I had developed a problem with it's camera few months ago and it took them a month to procure the camera sensor and replace it. It was a rushed device for sure, with no proper testing done. I know many others who have one or the other issues with their Nexus 6 (Uneven display is the most common, random low notification sound, spontaneous switching off phones, noisy vibration motor etc). I had the three issues mentioned above on my N6 viz. uneven display, random low notification sound and noisy vibrator motor.

Went a lot OT, sorry!
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
It's the cost of attending to warranty replacements that will pinch both companies and what they're doing is simply protecting their interests.

They've obviously noticed a trend after examining the returned units for defects on the back of which they took a call to have some (or all) warranty claims be signed off by their technical staff before processing the claim.

Frankly, this new policy is an indicator of a number of people having misused the 30 day return policy. It's quite sad.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
And it is also an indicator of the Chinese make/Brand's quality of products.

There's a balance there, that cannot be overlooked.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
I don't deny the possibility of lower than expected quality control/assurance at Chinese manufacturers. I too lamented the hand over of an icon like Motorola to Lenovo's management. Some Nexus 6 handsets weren't exactly paragons of quality, which I believed to be a result of the take over.

I thought over it long and hard before buying the 6P fully aware my handset could have display issues. But a purchase from FKT or the GPS is far better than an offline purchase where there are no returns and one has to run to a non existent or poorly staffed Huawei service centre for a solution. However, I have been happy with my perfect 6P so far. It has met my expectations.

So potential buyers have a choice - to buy or not to buy Chinese products. If one is not comfortable he/she simply avoids the purchase. But in a day and age where a large majority of electronic goods are made in either China (or Taiwan) there's not much you can do to avoid buying a product made in that country.
[Nexus 6P General] sriraviprasad:
Guys I just noticed there are two screws (gold color) just beside the dual led flash in the flashy black glass. Is this normal?

---------- Post added at 12:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 AM ----------

Also tapping with firm fingers near the back camera glass gives some vibration sound too.. Is this normal?
[Nexus 6P General] PratikP:
IMO, replacing a defective unit with a refurbished one will be when Huawei warranties are called in and not in the case of 'FK's 30 day return policy'. Every customer should get a new handset under 'FK's 30 day return policy'.

Internally, Huawei will be using FK's returned devices to honour the warranty claims when the customer approaches Huawei's service centers.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Just installed
[Nexus 6P General] PratikP:
It was a big decision for me, too!

I don't have an issue buying a product which is manufactured in China. Virtually every product we use in our day to day lives will have a part that was manufactured in China, after all China is called manufacturer for the world.

The dilemma for me was the after sales services. In the case of Nexus phones, the OEM have to honour the ASS and we exactly know how good Huawei is with their's :rolleyes: But I took the plunge.

Phonearena has recently done a poll asking the readers which OEM should manufacture the next Nexus device. No wonder Sony and Samsung were the top two. I would take a Nexus+Samsung/Sony device in a heartbeat with an amazing ASS being the cherry on the icing.

Cheers

Nexus 5X is already up for sale on Google Play Store, at MRP though. Not long before Nexus 6P also would be listed there.
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
Which one are these ??
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Black leather back with White Leather Logo.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
I do not say you will never get a brand new unit. What I am saying is neither Flipkart nor Huawei are obliged to give one as a replacement. The replacement could be brand new or a refurbished unit. Either way they're honouring the terms of the warranty.

The experience of Nexus 6 owners is an indication of how they may settle warranty claims inside or outside the 30 day return period.

On the other hand, if FKT reps assure us the replacements will be brand new I'll be so much more satisfied.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
Ummm....ASS as in???

Problem with Chinese manufacturing is their quality. The quality checks are almost non-existent. If they existed, our problems wouldn't. And that is one of the ways of keeping the costs low for them.

I'd rather pay a higher price, if it were an European or heck even an Indian product, as I know quality checks exists...cause I know I don't have to go through the hassles like we are going through right now.

On another note: Sony should be given the chance for the next Nexus. I just hate Samsung - Cheap plastics (although it changed in S6). And anyway, Samsung has been given enough chances.

Sony and HTC!!!

---------- Post added at 10:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:56 AM ----------

Well, FK guys certainly assured me. Both during N6 and N6P
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
ASS - After Sales Service

HTC were given a chance with Nexus 9 but it didn't do well. Motorola was given Nexus 6 and it too didn't do well. So it's not necessary that a big brand would make better devices which Huawei or lesser known companies can't. I am ok with all types of Mfg given an opportunity which brings newer tech, sometimes cheaper and keeps the competition alive. FYI, Huawei is by no standards a small company.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
True. Motorola screwed up. HTC with n9 didn't do too well. But you forget, the Nexus One that they made, was gorgeous. Still love it.....very beautifully crafted.

Huawei is a "small" company more cause of their poor marketing strategy.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Still don't agree with what you say about Huawei. It's marketing, sales personnel, network, customer care, ASS etc are much better than other Chinese players including Oneplus who have a presence in India.

It's other advantages is that it makes many other products which we have been using for years now like Wireless Modem and so their network is already in place.

With Nexus6P it just needs expansion and I can see they are very much in track.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
I meant their mobility section. In other products, they have made big inroads. Mobility, I'd say they are faring just okay. Given their financial strength and their existing reach of their existing products..... More is definitely expected than is.

They haven't maximised and taken forward their financial strength and their existing reputation.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
Give them the time, Nexus6P has launched in November and now we are just in mid December. I have had the opportunity to interact with many in the top management and that's why I'm very confident about them.
[Nexus 6P General] dhruvmalik:
I can confirm this.

Go for the KAPAVER, I purchased that, Foso, and the MTT one and found the KAPARVER was the best of the 3.
[Nexus 6P General] darshanbangre:
Bought this..

http://www.ebay.in/itm/High-quality...923271?hash=item3d0b51ec07:g:JmkAAOSwcdBWT0fR

Spoke to the seller and he sent me the pics of the screen guard.. it was decent for the price..
[Nexus 6P General] laemo:
So two 'engineers' from some small tech services company visited my premises yesterday evening to 'check' the device. I explained and showed how the screen had a bunch of issues (pink tint, very warm whites on full brightness, viewing angle issues). They simply refused to acknowledge any issues. According to them, that's how the manufacturer has made the screen, it was their technology and all devices have these issues.

I had to pull pictures off the internet and show them how that it's a genuine issue and it wasn't until a friend luckily showed up at my doorstep that they were convinced. Had it been just me, I'd have been screwed out of a fair return thanks to their amazing outsourced 'engineers' who did not understand much about display technology.

The entire experience left a rather bitter taste in my mouth. I am going to wait for a couple of weeks and re-purchase a N6P now, and am rethinking whether I want to transact with Flipkart again.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
Read some posts on the Nexus 6 thread and feedback from Andr0idfreak here. All replacements of the N6 have been refurbished units.

Agree, I hope HTC gets to make a Nexus handset. They really make beautifully crafted phones.

BTW Huawei is anything but small. It (along with ZTE, another Chinese OEM) is one of the major suppliers of switches, DSLAMs and other telecom equipment to telcos worldwide,

---------- Post added at 12:00 ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 ----------

What exactly did your pal do to convince them? These so called technicians will be deployed from Huawei's authorised service stations or even dealers.

You want to play it safe? Buy the handset at the Google Play Store. Otherwise you'll be back in the same muddle should you purchase from FKT.
[Nexus 6P General] laemo:
I don't know whether Huawei sent them or FK, but I think it was FK and it was some third party firm that does tech repairs and stuff. The guy had no idea about colour profile and calibration and kept harping that no this is how the screen is on ALL these phones, I am seeing this as perfect white, I like it the best (when compared to my other phones).

My friend supported me and said it's very obvious that there are issues, why are you not acknowledging. Both of them were stalling for a good 15-20 minutes and then finally relented. I was gobsmacked at how inept these guys were, and felt a fair few genuine cases would be disapproved because of such inspections.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
Hmm, I can imagine your experience with guys who have little to no technical knowledge.

Unfortunately, this how we customers will pay the price for frivolous returns. I just hope my handset does not mess up.
[Nexus 6P General] laemo:
Totally understand where FK/Huawei are coming from and I do believe a lot of people don't actually have issues. Maybe this is the best they can do, given that it's a very expensive activity for them as well.
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
Well i did not have any issues with this device and for me coming from an iPhone6 to note5 then nexus6p. The best device. Loved the looks & built quality. I can see most of the people complaining about their displays, but the display was provided by samsung right. Could it be possible that they supplied a substandard product?

I m still happy with my device.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
You mean Samsung’s marketing strategy?!
[Nexus 6P General] r_c111:
May be or may be not. What i m trying to say is samsung could have provided a substandard product. Dont know whether they did is purposely or didnt bother to check the quality.
[Nexus 6P General] Sultan of Speed:
Wow. That's not good. That's not good at all. So, customers are going to be denied of their fair share, based on the inexperienced techies, who have come to the customers house with the sole intention of making sure the device stays with the customer - come what may? Is that like their SLA to ensure customers keep their devices having issues?

I'll also need to rethink about Flipkart now.
[Nexus 6P General] laemo:
If any of you have house visits pending, make sure you have a bunch of Android devices for comparison and keep pics/links open as evidence that this is not "normal" - it is a widespread problem. If you are alone when they visit, it could get tricky as they'll try and bully you by denying issues.
[Nexus 6P General] pxdx:
