[Nexus 6P General] SURYA:
I think there is no official WhatsApp group but there is one WhatsApp group for N6P enthusiasts
[Nexus 6P General] nagarajsherigar:
ya can i get into that
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
Don't look for any.

AFAIK if you order now you'll get December batch phones and they are perfect.

If you want 32gigs get it from playstore, otherwise FK or amazon are good. Mobile store offers some cash discount in their website.

Stick with online purchase, just to be safe in case if you want to return.

Try VLC. Bit glitchy and slow to open, but plays almost all formats I have.
[Nexus 6P General] nagarajsherigar:
thanks brother
[Nexus 6P General] percy5911:
hey frnds,

im about to buy the nexus 6p so what are the things i should look for when i go to purchase im looking for silver in 64gb?? ive heard of yellow tint and all when i went through the posts. also how do i find out when was the device manufactured. i am looking to buy it from Croma and not from online sites as they might have just repacked one of the used phones to sell. also what are the other key points i can check while buying? and wat tempered glass and cover is recommended?

also if possible i would like to join that whats app group of Nexus 6P.

thanks in advance
[Nexus 6P General] nexustiger:
Jargon used in this forum: G32- Grey, 32GB; S64- Silver 64GB, etc

How to check build date: Got to bootloader by pressing power and both volume buttons. Then select bar codes.

Most common issue is pink/yellow screen. This was found mostly in S34/64 versions. Check all corners of your screen. If pink tint in only on one patch, go for replacement. If a pink hue is visible overall, it's fine. When you tilt your screen in small angles and notice a bluish hue, it's fine too, happens in almost all new amoled panels.

Check the chasis for any visible dents.

Play songs on max volume and check if there's any crackling of sound.

I would suggest to buy from Flipkart/Playstore only, preferably Flipkart, because of their excellent replacement policy.

If you buy from Croma, I don't think RMA wound be so hassle free.
[Nexus 6P General] senthilrameshjv:
Guys, please add me in the whatsapp group as well.. Also as my xiaomi piston isn't supporting can you tell me any recommended headphones?

Guys, does anyone have an idea on when the 128 GB Nexus 6p is arriving? Either on playstore or Flipkart? Or any other way of obtaining it other than importing it from US?
[Nexus 6P General] rohit25:
never is it gonna come to india... NEVER
[Nexus 6P General] percy5911:
ohhk thanks for the valuable tips will sure make a note of it. i am very very very skeptical to buy it from flipkart as many friends of my have suggested not to buy as it might just be a repack of some other device. im looking at croma only as its a trusted tata shop. Also the play store does not have the s64 which i want to buy so even thats not a option for me. any thing else that could be a thing to check while buying???
[Nexus 6P General] nexustiger:
From my experience, if you buy from WS Retail seller from Flipkart, you won't get a refurbished device as long as you place a new order. If you go for a replacement, you might or might not get a totally new piece. Either way, you can contact Flipkart and get a replacement if you ever get a used device.

I've gone through a few replacements and never got a used one.

Bottom line, Flipkart is your safest bet and considering the 30 day policy, I'd say it's better than Croma.
[Nexus 6P General] pvskskumar:
I too feel the same. I've never got a old one in 30 days replacement scheme

Got the intelliArmor!

Guys, finally got my intelliArmor TGSP delivered! I had ordered the edge-to-edge one. Applied it yesterday and this screen protector IS BEAUTIFUL.

Cuts are precise and the oleophobic coating is immensely satisfying. :cool:

Best part is, it fits SUPERB with the Spigen Rugged Armor case.

Long story short - intelliArmor + Spigen Rugged Armor = Best fit ever! :)

Kudos!
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Yup. I'm mighty impressed with intelliarmor too. The oleophobic coating is the best I've seen on a TGSP. I'll be sticking to this company for my TGSP needs from now on.
[Nexus 6P General] percy5911:
hey can you plz share the link for the intelli armor screen protector??so is it tempered glass or just a normal plastic one??

thanks in advance....

How did you get edge-to-edge one? It is not released yet according to this post
[Nexus 6P General] percy5911:
guys any idea how is the spigen Glas.tR SLIM Screen Protector & the Case Rugged Armor. im plannin to go for a s64 and would like to have a clear cover with good protection. are there any other cases that i can consider. or any good cases that can be opt for. i love UAG cases buy unfortunately the dont make it for the Nexus 6p
[Nexus 6P General] SpiritBreak3r:
Instead of getting the massive spigen's TGSP, get Nillkin's H+ Pro (Costs about the same) but better in every aspect. It completely covers the screen(not cutting off from the sensor and speakers) which is aesthetically pleasing and it's just 0.2mm, you won't even feel it on the screen.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
I am using the Nillkin TGSP and can vouch for its quality. All my phones are fitted with Nillkin TGSPs.

On a different note just downloaded and installed the 8.5 MB Jan 2016 security update.
[Nexus 6P General] mihir2035:
Don't know what am I missing! Attached is the one I bought.

It says intelliGlass HD as well as the edge-to-edge on the packaging. :)
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
That's just a wrong sticker. Had the same on mine and it's certainly not edge to edge. In fact it has slight gap on all four sides. This is a case friendly version actually.
[Nexus 6P General] mihir2035:
Could be! My bad though.

But I think case friendly doesn't have a proper bottom speaker cut-out. Saw a few videos of that version.

Anyway, this is the best TGSP maker! Love it! :cool:
[Nexus 6P General] SpiritBreak3r:
Ordered a Sony XB-90EX from Japan, should be here next week. It's a Bass Boosted IEM, was most recommended for bassheads.

---------- Post added at 07:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 PM ----------

Good to know, but there are 2 variants of the TGSP. H+ is recommended tho.
[Nexus 6P General] knightshooter:
Maybe this is the max protection option they provide
[Nexus 6P General] NishantM:
Yup. Possible.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
I am using the standard variant (H). Didn't notice the H+ when I got my phone. Interestingly the H+ is priced about the same. So if there are some benefits it would be best to go for the H+ I guess.
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
Where did you get them? Seems, it is only available in eBay.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
You'll get them at ebay.in or amazon.in. Got mine from Amazon.
[Nexus 6P General] SpiritBreak3r:
When I was looking out for them at amazon.in (previous week) there were only the usual H ones, had to order from ebay (http://www.ebay.in/itm/NILLKIN-9H-P...767089?hash=item280e9b8d31:g:A28AAOSw3KFWgUUn). Prompt seller, shipped it the next day.
[Nexus 6P General] rajarshi10:
I used a toolkit to root my 6P. I'm using rooted stock rom. I got an OTA January update but it seems I can't update it that way as per all others. So how do I go about installing this on my mobile? Do I need to unroot, flash stock recovery & then flash the new image? Then again I have to root?
[Nexus 6P General] inimaitimepass:
Unroot, flash stock recovery, get OTA zip it is an (8.5mb file), boot into recovery and sideload the zip.

[Nexus 6P General] nagarajsherigar:
thanks dude
[Nexus 6P General] senthilrameshjv:
Guys, two questions..

1. Is there anyway I can know if my fingerprint sensor is slow? I've such an impression. I've redone the scans and even then it's slow. I'll have to exchange it in that case. But I've never seen another nexus 6p in real anywhere. I've 15 more days to return to flipkart.

2. Is 6.0.1 killing battery. I'm only getting less than average battery life. I've never been on 6.0 so couldn't know if it's comparatively high or less. I'm planning to go back to, 6.0 via any roms and check. Has anyone done that already and checked if battery improved
[Nexus 6P General] sharp87:
1. better ask for replacement or else u will stuck with ur current device..I have two n6p device, both haven't got any issues..

2. I checked my self, battery life are almost same on both 6.0 and 6.0.1 version..
[Nexus 6P General] senthilrameshjv:
1.But how do I confirm, its indeed slow?
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
Why do you say it's slow? Just making a statement won't help us understand if it's slow or not. What's the response time from when you swipe your finger to the moment it unlocks?

And there's no change in battery life from 600-601. Going back to 600 means you lose out on the security fixes. I wouldn't do that if I were you.
[Nexus 6P General] senthilrameshjv:
I agree with you on the slowness. I simply say it by comparing how the videos shown it and in some forums ppl have said it's slower after 6.0.1. It's all my impression and not factual. That's why I wanted to know if any app can tell me the response time.

I just checked the response time myself (no timer and all). Its somewhere just above a second. Is that normal?
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
Yeah that's about right. In my experience its about 1 second which is fast enough for me. Other methods like passwords, PINs & patterns are far slower :)

Also, if FKT does a check on the phone how do you think you're going to convince them it's a fault when you yourself admit it's just an impression & not factual? Don't go looking for faults man. This thread is full of people just anxious to check if there's an issue or not. The only confirmed issue is the display tint present on SOME A32/64 handsets, while some have an issue with the speaker. If you have a display problem return the handset, likewise for the speaker.

My G64 is perfect, no complaints so far and it's from the much maligned 11/11/15 build batch. Let's hope it stays perfect till the next Nexus handset is released :)
[Nexus 6P General] senthilrameshjv:
That build date is what worries me.. [emoji6] mine is A64 of ur same build date which has issues everywhere. Im not sure if I'm not picky enough or if the phone is perfect..
[Nexus 6P General] hacksome:
I've got the same build date as well. G64. Zero glitches.
[Nexus 6P General] Sharp-Razr:
Relax bro, like I said if there are obvious issues do return the handset, but don't go nit picking and looking for faults. And yes please do not downgrade to 6.0.0, those security fixes are important.
[Nexus 6P General] sharp87:
few of my friends own nexus 6p and none of them have issues including me regarding pink tint display and fingerprints scan and their mfg date is bw 11/2015, 10/2015, mine is 10/11/15( Indian standard ).. for me fingerprint scanner unlocks my device within 1sec and not more than that.. if u have unlocked ur device within 1 sec then you dont seems to have delay issues
[Nexus 6P General] mihir2035:
OK Google

Since the last "Google App" or the 6.0.1 update (not sure here), my 6P intermittently stops responding to my voice commands (only) when the device is locked. It used to work perfectly fine! A reboot solves everything, but it appears after a few more days. :confused:

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

In this video by TechnoBuffalo, he's said the exact same thing!
[Nexus 6P General] sriraviprasad:
Fingerprint scanner is working perfectly. There seems one problem though It takes some time to detect during charging and it is a problem with all the devices I guess.

Battery drain was heavy after the 6.0.1 update. I reset my phone and restored all the applications, seems ok now

I have one query.. Does 3g and LTE uses different radios? If we keep 3g on. Does it save battery?
[Nexus 6P General] fazmon:
yah..3g (1.8 – 2.5 GHz) and 4g (2 – 8 GHz) uses different radio frequencies..i think 2g and 4g are battery friendly .
[Nexus 6P General] SpiritBreak3r:
dbrand(s) are here!
[Nexus 6P General] senthilrameshjv:
I was just going to put a question on cases and saw this pic. Could someone who uses the below tell me few things.

1.TGSP - hope intelliarmor is best. Is it easy to apply and whether it's causing much thickness? They ship to India?

2. Spigen rugged case - goes well with aluminium,? As its only available in black? Does it give premium feel, cos I chose 6p over 5x, for that feel also. Again, too much bulkiness?

3. Dbrand. Do they ship to India from official store?can I put case over it.. And how difficult it is to apply?
[Nexus 6P General] KoolSIM:
1. TGSP is easy to apply. I am using Spigen's, and I can barely notice it. Surely Intelliarmor would be similar. They do ship to India (shipping fee is $8.00).

2. I use the Spigen rugged case, but I have the G64 version. It complements my phone very well (although it hides the Nexus logo) and gives it a premium feel on the back. Simple and elegant! Its not bulky at all.

3. No Dbrand skin for me since I have the Rugged Armor case now. Putting a case on a skinned N6P shouldn't be a problem and as long as the case is transparent, one can see the skin too.
[Nexus 6P General] SpiritBreak3r:
1. I am using Nillkin's H+ Amazing Pro, way better than Spigen's Glas.Trim TGSP. Nillkin seems to catch smudges but not fingerprints + I do not have to wait longer for them to arrive.

2. Rocking a Spigen Hybrid Ultra Case along with the dbrand skin, obviously you don't want to use a opaque case over a skin ;)

3. Dbrand ships has both expedited(7-10 days) shipping and economy(30 days <) shipping(which they call it "risked" lol).
[Nexus 6P General] senthilrameshjv:
The ultra case is good? With respect to grip and ability to sustain fall?
[Nexus 6P General] SpiritBreak3r:
Grip is good enough and I haven't drop tested it not accidentally dropped it. It's slightly yellow tinted(case mate had the same hue) but ringke's are crystal white.

Hii guys....been using my nexus 6p from past 2 weeks..these r the few issues I faced...want to know r these problem only there for me or for every body..

-when taking a photo in hdr, picture is very sharp but..its dull. I mean it looks dull than the one taken without hdr.

-our 6p has g8 front cam but..no beauty mode n lacks manual control.. So I tried more than 15 well know camera apps..but the out put is always way worst than the pics taken by the default google camera app.

Please let me know ,if it is a problem with my device..

And one more thing try PIXEL BATTERY SAVER...it really saves battery...with this I got 6:15 hr screen on time , always connected to Wifi or 3g,no gaming.:laugh:

[Nexus 6P General] hacksome:
What's "Ghost pepper" ?!
[Nexus 6P General] senthilrameshjv:
In the nexus 5x Tweaked Governor settings thread, there are different scripts floating around (Check Post #900), which is either configured for performance, or battery or both (optimized in between). Ghost Pepper is one of such configuration and has proven good results. N5X has another such script called Butterfly which is giving good results. Some 6p users also tried and has gotten good results without modifying anything.

Once I go home today i'll try butterfly, as I don't want to screw anything at my work place now :)

finally bought my nexus 6p s64 from croma!!!! got it with 2 free covers and headphones within the box!!! the build date is 31-10-15 should that be an issue with the yellow or pink tint on the screen??? honestly speaking i cant see any yellow tint when the device is upfront!!! when i tilt a little bit on the sides i do notice a little yellow tint could that be because of the tgsp???
[Nexus 6P General] sharp87:
afaik yellow tint on amoled screens is for reducing our eye strain and increase battery life too. the same yellow tint color options available in my hp lcd monitor too for use @ night times

a very little slight yellow tint in nexus 6p is acceptable..And build date isnt a big issue

I had been waiting for frost version myself. On enquiring with the Google Store call centre I was told all versions would launch on their store. But the Flipkart offer before that was quite tempting so I settled with a G64 instead.
