[Verizon LG G4] Mozelstein:
I haven't yet received notification that the OTA update is available. I only purchased the phone a month ago so if it's being rolled out according to serial numbers then I'll be a while.

I'm going to take it because the touchscreen issues are maddening and I never use wifi so it doesn't seem like notification issues will be an issue for me.

Thanks guys for keeping things updated with input from tech support. It's appreciated.
[Verizon LG G4] Almighty1:
I agree with what is said about LG. I thought there was a bug in ipv6 on lollipop in general. I guess wireless carriers only wants things to work on their network, not wifi as wifi basically is giving free data to the customer, not their pockets so they don't test that section. I think a VPN firewall should correct the issue since anytime VPN is used, ipv6 becomes disabled and ipv4 is used for everything. I do wonder if one uses their own ipv6 tunnel, if that is even possible since that also creates a tunnel, would the same problem exist? The issue seems to be DHCPv6 according to this and is not really a Verizon only issue:

[Verizon LG G4] jesssiii:
Especially after the same problem with the G3!

Is that on the device or computer?
[Verizon LG G4] Crsdr37:
Anyone apply the 12a root and attempt the Crontab+Ipv6 disable fix from the G3 to fix sync issues. This **** is really annoying especially when you use your phone for work, Open vpn wired for a little bit but always disconnects after a while.
[Verizon LG G4] raidflex:
For some reason my LG G4 will not find the 12a software update. I was on 11a and rooted, so I used the 11a KDZ yesterday and went back to stock. Then I ran a check for system updates, but nothing is found. I have had this device since June, I also have two other family members with G4's all 3 devices were bought from Verizon at the same time and the other two were updated a week ago. The only difference being my G4 was rooted and the system updated was disabled. So i am wondering if anyone else has had this issues, or if you noticed a delay after going back to stock. Thanks.
[Verizon LG G4] bkrickles:
I've been told that I am wrong, but I believe the 12a update was pulled by verizon after numerous complaints about the wifi sync issue. I haven't seen anyone on here say they received the update after 10/9 or 10/10.

I updated on 10/9 and the wifi sync issue is super frustrating but the rest of the update was actually real solid.

Maybe verizon/lg is going to push another update to us, but I'm not holding my breath for it.

We'll have to wait and see but I don't think you're going to receive the 12a.
[Verizon LG G4] raidflex:
I know a previous poster in this thread did contact Verizon and the rep did state that the update was not pulled. But I really wonder how much info the reps are given.
[Verizon LG G4] scrillakev:
Its been what two weeks and my brother hasn't received the update as yet I believe this was pulled because it broke notifications via WiFi.
[Verizon LG G4] oldblue910:
I don't have an update available either. I was out of town on the 9th when the OTA was released, and didn't have my G4 on me, otherwise I'd have updated then. I guess I'll have to wait until they release the next one. :/
[Verizon LG G4] poeypresents:
i believe my phone may have updated on its own, i am boot looping at vzw screen...lame...any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon LG G4] player911:
I've spoke with Verizon several times and they dig and dig and dig but always come up with nothing.

The Verizon update will not update on its own unless you manually checked the box and set a scheduled time. It will also fail (not brick) your phone, which will cause it to just reboot back into normal Android like nothing happened.

Are you still bootlooping? Have you done the normal reboot, battery pull, etc? It will probably require being replaced by the carrier. Fortunately they know they botched the Verizon 12A update and will probably replace it with little questions asked.

If you WANT to attempt to fix it:

- Have you recently made any build.prop config edits, DPI changes, etc? These typically will bootloop you too. Push a stock 11A system image over using COM commands

- You can try to flash the 11A KDZ. The phone is already bootlooping, it is the only option I can think of prior to replacing it otherwise.
[Verizon LG G4] poeypresents:
I tried LG Flash tool with 11A KDZ, no success, trying again on a CSE Flash, but i already scheduled an appointment...this is so lame....literally just plugged my phone in last night, went to sleep and woke up with these issues....

Thanks for your help!! i genuinely appreciate it

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:31 PM ----------

no success on CSE Flash with a Data Reset...gets past LG screen but freezes up on Big Red splash.
[Verizon LG G4] ghostbustaj:
I seriously feel like just not paying Verizon a cent for the bill this month...and the next, and the next. Until this is fixed. I put up with this BS on the G3 before and I'm not gonna do it again.

This is seriously PISSING me off. I've already missed so many notifications, some of which were urgent at the time. And I'm sorry, I don't have the money to upgrade to unlimited data, nor the data plan to keep my WiFi turned off.

This needs to get fixed now.

This is like taking your car into a dealership, having them fix an issue with your turn signal light not working, as well, the indicator on your dash; they fix your signal light in the back, you pay the bill, but before you drive off the lot with your indicator still not working, the service manager comes up to you and says "oh, we're gonna work on fixing that. Don't worry about it. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may cause."

I mean, if that's the best answer they can give you "we're working on fixing that." Should you pay that dealership? LOL.
[Verizon LG G4] scrillakev:
This is getting to be a bit much, I'm really considering selling my G4 and pick up either the Droid Turbo 2 or the Moto X Pure. First the touch screen issues and then now the broken WiFi notifications. This Friday its going to be three weeks since they broke it.
[Verizon LG G4] oldblue910:
I just want to see this get fixed. I'm still on 11A, so I never got the update and am not having the notification issue. That said, I want all the other changes that were in that 12A update so hopefully they'll fix that issue and then issue a new OTA for everyone on both 11A and 12A

[Nexus 6P Accessories] toyanucci:
Are 3.1 Type C cables backward compatible with 2.0 type C devices? I ask because if they are wouldn't it make sense for people to buy USB 3.1 Type C cables for future proofing vs 2.0?

I am in the market for a long cable and am confused as to which of the cables below to chose.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] Chilidog:
USB type c is just the physical connector it has nothing to do with the usb 2.0 or 3.0 so you might as well by the fastest ones

What we do need to worry about is whether or not the cable itself supports charging at 3A 5v
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Looking at the two, it appears that the Cable Matters product is a cable designed to connect a computer with Type-C port to a peripherals with USB 2.0 Type-C ports. (Like the Nexus 6p.) The maximum data speeds for this would be USB 2.0 speeds. Looks like a very nicely constructed cable - look at the connection ends, and polished metal. If all you were doing is connecting smart phones to your laptop, this is the type of product I would buy.

The J&D cable appears to be a full-feature type-c cable, and should support every supported type-c data rate. I'm not in love with the picture of the product though. Doesn't look quite as nice as the Cable Matters product. If you wanted to connect two devices with full 10GB/s connectivity, this would be the type of cable I would get.

It is my opinion that the two products are good examples of a well made USB 2.0 Type-C cable and a cheaply made full-feature Type-C cable. The full feature cables have to include more pins/wires, and are thus more expensive to produce.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Technically incorrect, but essentially right.

Assuming both cables adhere to standards, the Cable Matters USB 2.0 Type-C cable is (most likely) missing the data pins & wires needed to transfer at the rated Type-C 10GB/s speeds; however, it should still have all of the power pins and wires to charge at 5V 3A. The J&D cable, presumably being a full-feature cable, should support full Type-C power (100W) and data (10GB/s) speeds, and will also charge a Nexus at 5V 3A.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] toyanucci:
So for just charging it would make sense to get the better constructed cable based on your observations?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] kibmikey1:
At this point, it's more about the cable you use than the charger. Using a backwards 3.0/3.1 compatible C to A cable will get you the same speeds as a standard C to C cable in USB use. The chargers coming standard with the phone are C to charger, so Google seems to be indicating separate charging and USB use here. However, compatible untethered chargers are available in both the Google stores and elsewhere. Just make sure if you're not buying the Google charger, you get one with the right specs.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] toyanucci:
Yh, I;m still waiting for charging bricks with the correct specs but would just get the 6.6 ft cable from now.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Glitch4583:
Leave it to Android to steal more features from the iPhone....
[Nexus 6P Accessories] heleos:
So, if I read your post correctly, (very good post btw), if I were to buy a charger for work, I should try to find a USB-c to USB-c cable (5V/3A), and a USB-c wall plug, because the USB-c standard is what gets you the 15W? Using a USB-c to USB-a cable, even if it was rated for 3A, would max out at 10W?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
This is a bit misleading, and while I see what your point is, I urge caution using such general statements. A one amp charger with a Type-A port, a computer's USB 2 port, a USB 3.1 port, and a Type-C port connected to Type-C adaptors will all produce different charging rates for attached USB Type-C devices.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
I'm the type who thinks it's better to get the better constructed everything. So I'd look for a "USB 3.1" compatible C to C cable that was built well.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] kibmikey1:
True, but I was talking about USB transfer speeds, not USB charging speeds, since Google seems to be indicating separate charging and USB connectivity use with these phones, as evidenced by them including separate chargers and cables with them. Actually, only the 6P has both, the 5X only has the tethered charger.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Yes, exactly.

Edit: According to what I've read, anyway. There might be something about 3.1 Type A ports that I'm not aware of which will allow 15W power. I know the 3.1 Type A port has extra pins. Just haven't been able to find in the 3.1 spec sheet a 100% absolutely for sure explanation either way. The Type-C specs pretty clearly spell out power states though, so I'm going to continue going by that. See attachment.

Second Edit: No, it would max out at 15 watts. The current I in amps (A) is equal to the power P in watts (W) divided by the voltage V in volts (V):

I = P / V.

3.0 Amps = 15 Watts / 5 Volts.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Or just buy a hard wired type-c charger like the one on the play store.

https://store.google.com/product/usb_c_charger

It won't power 100w, but I'm sure someone makes one that will.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] seezar:
It's currently sold out. They also have a 60W version with a 12' cable but it's $59.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Ouch that's a bit pricey!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] [hfm]:
Why not just get the 15W charger Google sells?

---------- Post added at 09:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:47 PM ----------

Ooh man.. Good thing I loaded two of them into my pre-order. Almost everything I pre-ordered is sold out. :)
[Nexus 6P Accessories] wilflare:
thank you so much! that clarifies a lot of my doubts and questions! thank you!

I do have one more question and that concerns Quick Charging and USB-C Charging.

I've read the link you provided (and other links too) but I still can't grab my head around how Quick Charging work (and USB-C Charging) -okay maybe I just don't get how charging works in the first place-

so let us look at Quick Charging and its varying of voltage and current to allow for the wattage to push through.

- assuming my phone's battery is at 0%

- the charger will begin charging at 12V to push current at a faster pace

- at a certain %, it starts slowly down to the normal 5V to push current at the "normal pace" until it's full?

for USB-Charging

- the charger will charge at 5V at the full 3A

- and slowly trickle to a lower <3A until it's full (this is more for safety, etc)

-- does the above make sense or am I missing the point... again?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Yes, it looks like you have it. I'm assuming you understand that Quick Charge doesn't happen on the Nexus 6p/5x though.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tu3218:
Just ordered my 6p and this is all very confusing. Gonma read up on it more but wanna go ahead an order a second cable awhile. Is this a good one? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010SFDKC6/ref=cm_sw_r_other_awd_1NhGwb8NSP6YP

Seems to be type ç which looks to be the ideal cable type.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
My advice to everyone would be to read the product reviews to see if anyone tested the cable for compliance with USB specs, and make an informed purchase.

Someone seems to have tested that cable and found it to be non-compliant.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] sirxdroid:
Good news is that many sellers have updated versions now that are spec compliant. Here's one that I tried personally, both the non-compliant and then the compliant version:

http://www.amazon.com/PLESON®-Charging-Macbook-Chromebook-Devices/dp/B017DEETZM/

(Spoiler: I prefer the non-compliant version as it makes better use of my 2.4A chargers)
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tu3218:
So is that the complaint one or not? I'm just looking for a cable that will work with all my current USB wall adapters and give the best charging rate. Not too concerned about data transfer speeds. But it looks like USB 3.0 gives slightly higher power output over 2.0.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] sirxdroid:
The current version should be compliant. I asked them if they still have any of the old non-compliant ones because I wanted one more and they said no.

In theory yes USB 3.0 should give you more when connected to a computer USB port, but in practice that was not my experience connected to a Macbook USB 3 port with a compliant cable.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tu3218:
So what should we look for in determining whether we will get fast charging or not? Still unclear on my end. Is it the cable, wall adaptor, or both? Not sure what to order. I'm guessing any USB type c cable I get will charge my nexus right? It's just a matter as to whether I can get fast charging or not.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] jhoff80:
3A / 5V native USB-C charger plus a USB-C to USB-C cable = fast charging.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Ok, look... Let me just stop everything here. What is fast charging? A term with no definition behind it. Google never defined what fast charging is. The USB consortium never defined what fast charging is. It is just a poor marketing term that is misused so often in regard to type C devices, specifically the Nexii, that it's no wonder everybody gets confused about it.

If you want to ensure that your device always charges safely and as fast as it can, you need to make the migration into type C chargers and cables and dispense of type a connections altogether.

If you are unable or unwilling to do that, you need to accept that your device will not charge as fast using type A hosts as it will using type C hosts. Period. In fact, the best case scenario is it will charge at half the rate type C can provide. That is until your battery is charged to about 60 to 70%, in which case the charging rates become similar.

If you break down the specifications and understand what the charging rates are on all of the different connection types, and eliminate the nebulous fast charging terms and misconceptions, you can then make an informed decision on what accessories you want to buy. The OP clearly spells out the charging currents of each connection, so I invite you to reread the post.

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Stigga:
Thanks. What's the cheapest version of perfectly compliant and fast wall charger, cable and car charger?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Not only would that answer constantly change as prices do, but that's not on me to provide. Sorry. These links may help you start researching for yourself:

https://plus.google.com/collection/s0Inv

http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A25GROL6KJV3QG/ref=cm_cr_rdp_pdp

Or search the forum for a spreadsheet a different XDA community member is maintaining of compliant devices.

Hope that helps.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tu3218:
Good info. However, my skills include saving lives, pushing medications and running IV drips that keep someone alive, breathing for people when they can't. I'm pretty knowledgeable about tech but when it comes to electronical components, it gets iffy for me. Sorry I don't understand this new standard and technology as well as you. Just ordered my phone last week and started reading about it this week. If it was as clear as you say, no one would be asking questions here. The OP has given me a great start, but it is still confusing.

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Thank you for the work you do.

It my hope that my comments weren't read with negative connotations.

I'll simplify as much as I can (without using the term fast charging and assuming the cable uses the correct specs).

Type A hosts: the phone will draw varying currents depending on the source. Those current levels are .5, .9 and 1.5 amps.

Type C hosts will provide up to 3.0A.

If you're going to use a Type A connection, please ensure that you use a compliant cable to avoid risk of pulling more current than the host can provide.

If you are going to reuse type a chargers from previous phones, I would suggest that you examine the rated output of that charger to ensure it can output at least 1.5A. If it provides less than that, the phone will charge slowly.

If you purchase a new charger, I would recommend selecting one with a type C port and a rated output of 5V 3A.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tu3218:
No worries, I appreciate your guys help. Electrical stuff is not my thing lol

I think the issue with having difficulty understanding everything is the lack of definitions and not knowing the "anatomy" of the different cables. So you can have all the info in the world, but if you don't know what the words mean, you'll never understand. Needless to say, I have done further research and now understand better what the host, etc.

So take away is if I'm use old charger wall adaptor, make sure they at least output 1.5a. And if I'm going to buy a USB type C to A cable, make sure its just compliant? That is what confuses me. Is there something I should be looking for to verify its compliant? I just want a compatible cable to carry with me for when I go places.

Otherwise, buy type c to c new adapters and cables.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Sadly, there is no visual way of determining this. Equipment manufacturers have done such a piss poor job advertising (or misadvertising) these products, you can't trust half of them.

Also, a quick tip: if on a type A cable the specs say it supports USB 3.0, you can probably skip it. Your phone only uses USB 2.0.

Anyway, Benson and others have tested several cables and reported their findings. Links on the OP or here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64536900&postcount=192. I believe most people just view Benson's profile on Amazon.com and go from there. The Google sold cables are also good, and of high quality. Store.google.com.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] StarW15:
You could try CHOETECH usb-c wall charger and cc cable, and Tronsmart usb-c car charger.

For fast charging your Nexus 6P, you need 3A / 5V USB-C charger plus a USB-C to USB-C cable.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] xddawg:
i am curious. would it be 'bad' if i used a usb A to C to charge my phone? any effects on the battery?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] MoNsTeReNeRgY22:
Thanks for the excellent post, just had a question.

In your OP you say the following.

Benson Leung posted THIS article and it says the following.

Unless I am reading it wrong, one says the CC wire is used for negotiation while the other says the pull-up resistor (not the CC wire) is used to determine current draw.

Could you clarify this for me?

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 AM ----------

As long as the legacy cable uses the proper 56 kΩ pullup resistor, it shouldn't negativity effect your battery or the charger/port. However, it will charge your phone slower than a proper type C- type C charging setup.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dastinger:
I bough a Tecknet USB A to USB C cable and it passes the Checkr test but I was using it now for the first time (after buying it one week ago) and noticed that it charges really slowly connected to a 2012 Retina Macbook Pro (USB 3.0). I used Ampere to measure and it measures around 770mA tops. It also floats a lot. It goes from 200 mA to 750 mA in a matter of seconds. Is this normal or do I have a cable that's not as good as I thought?

PS: I read more posts after posting (I know, should have been the other way around :o) and I now know that the 6P only uses USB 2.0. Anyway, are these values normal?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] sirxdroid:
[MENTION=3257528]dastinger[/MENTION] With a non-compliant cable I get 1.4A from a MBP port. With a compliant cable I get 440mA which for USB 2.0 makes sense as it's supposed to do max 500mA.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] dastinger:
Ok, thank you [MENTION=4966885]sirxdroid[/MENTION], I was starting to think the great deal for the cable was not so much of a great deal. Everything is normal then :)
