Oh, it exists....

Hey Matt! Awesome that you stop by here (been almost 2 years! I remember your posts in the 2013 X board and stalked your profile just now). Super exited to see the official rollout of 6.0!

Shhhh don't use government names ;)

It will make my 2015 if you guys beat the nexus to market with 6.0 even in soak form :)
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
haha well I want to be in it :) Kinda glad I haven't rooted or anything.
[X Style (Pure) General] Xatt:
If you guys want to take part, why are you posting about it here?
[X Style (Pure) General] Android The Greek:
Is there a topic on the moto x pure forums? I didn't see it earlier
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
if i get picked my mouth will be shut ;) you can keep track of me :P
[X Style (Pure) General] PiousInquisitor:
The question now is: Does XDA give you users emails so you can bump them from Fight Club? :eek:
[X Style (Pure) General] ErikHellstrom:
...only my fingers will speak.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
mine might but only in their private forums :P
[X Style (Pure) General] Restola:
I hope anyone who gets in takes the time to provide thoughtful feedback and doesn't just treat it as a preview to play with. While 6.0 is basically lollipop cleaned up, it would be great to avoid the disaster that was 5.0 and the only way anyone outside of moto can contribute to that is to take the testing seriously. I use my phone for work so try to avoid these things...hopefully ya'll will help out!
[X Style (Pure) General] Jmaniac55:
REMOVED...

Question was answered
[X Style (Pure) General] alphadog00:
You guys realize that XDA is server under a desk in a Motorola office? Right?
[X Style (Pure) General] slaytanic:
I'll definitely take the testing seriously. If I were to get the update, I'd go silent on here About what it actually was, until given the okay
[X Style (Pure) General] rocketsaucev2:
The whole idea of the secret testers for updates is silly to me.

[X Style (Pure) General] DrearierJester1:
Right.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
lol I like how this thread dried up, who else thought the "soak test" was a water submerge test after reading the title? :)
[X Style (Pure) General] PiousInquisitor:
Only the noobs that have never had a Motorola phone or have never been on XDA.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
yeah I think Motorola noobs like me will. But look at my sig I'm no noob when it comes to xda or phones.

Never seen this program with any of the 20 something phones I have had (besides apple but that's a different beast)
[X Style (Pure) General] PiousInquisitor:
You seem offended at my observations. Not sure why you would be as you clearly admitted to fitting into one of the categories. Note that being in the Moto noob category doesn't make you an XDA noob. However, the number of posts one has made and the number of phones owned don't necessarily indicate a non-noob.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
Not offended, a little bored maybe. I agree with all your statements :)
[X Style (Pure) General] patt2k:
No one
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
I doubt it but after these comments no one else will fess up. Like stated above if you have never had a moto before this process is foreign.

With LG announcing Marshmallow today for LG G4 it gives me hope this is going to the Marshmallow update.
[X Style (Pure) General] brholt6:
I hope so too. Wasn't their announcement just for Poland, though? Kinda seems like they're just pushing it out in a small market so they can claim to be first.
[X Style (Pure) General] ErikHellstrom:
I don't know how well ill be able to test it without xposed. I'm running a small army of modules, and without that, it'll be hard to compare.
[X Style (Pure) General] roaddaw9:
Yes, but they said other countries next week as well

http://www.theverge.com/2015/10/14/9536257/lg-g4-marshmallow-update-rollout
[X Style (Pure) General] chris23445:
"The company just announced that G4 owners — in Poland, at least — will get the OS upgrade from next week, with the Americas, Asia, and Europe to follow."

Poland will get it next week, not anyone else. The article says they haven't announced when other markets will get the update. It'll be like the G3 last year, it will take a few months for all the carriers to get the update.
[X Style (Pure) General] bwheelies:
Great updates to the MXPE soak test folks.

Note heavy sarcasm.
[X Style (Pure) General] imxdot:
When ya gotta mention the term sarcasm while being sarcastic its not funny
[X Style (Pure) General] roaddaw9:
Does anyone recall on a soak test in the past once the survey is filled out how long it takes to start? For some reason when I did this on the original Moto X when I filled it out on Mon or Tues it got pushed that Friday (roughly).

Usually within a week. Got my eye on this thread today

I missed the survey :( It was closed about a day after I got my email. It was too late when I noticed the email and I'm so pissed at myself. I wish I could have gotten to it on time.
[X Style (Pure) General] patt2k:
Why? You will get a zip to flash for sure.
[X Style (Pure) General] yung40oz84:
Ya, as soon as the soak test comes development will boom for Marshmallow and a zip will come to flash the new stock marshmallow update
[X Style (Pure) General] Bwangster12:
I actually got a follow-up email yesterday asking for more information. They basically wanted to know if I was encrypted or not and who my carrier was again.
[X Style (Pure) General] patt2k:
Yea got the same thing yesterday.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshuadjohnson22:
When did you get the original email? Sounds like the rest of us missed the boat unless you were on the first email batch
[X Style (Pure) General] Bwangster12:
I believe the original came on 10/8 and the more info needed came on 10/14.

Strange, I tried that one using twrp manager to flash it and it boot looped at the boot loader and never installed. Got lucky and holding power down (forever it seemed like) finally stopped the loop and it booted up fine after that...didn't want to risk another try.
[X Style (Pure) General] TrenchKato:
That is strange. Maybe you could try flashing it from T WRP recovery directly. And are you totally sure that you use the 64-bit ARM version
[X Style (Pure) General] ErikHellstrom:
I tested the v74 and the v74_romracer version and they both worked.

You also need to install the lollipop alpha apk
[X Style (Pure) General] DrearierJester1:
Yohoo! You know what I mean if ur from there.
[X Style (Pure) General] benjamminh:
David Schuster on Google plus said there is no soak test right now. There's a private test drive for beta testing and if that goes well there should be a soak test in a few weeks for the marshmallow update.

Yay! I guess ur here as well from AC forums. But yeah Test drives is on going.

Pre-foreplay for the geeks that can't wait :)
[X Style (Pure) General] greatnesstx:
Some one grab the ota to marsh and share it!!!! That would be awesome
[X Style (Pure) General] hbar98:
As a counterpoint, no it would not be awesome. Test drives/soak tests are tied to the imei number. If you apply the test drive/soak to your phone, you are effectively cutting yourself off from subsequent updates (apart from flashing stock back, that is).

That may be okay for some, but for most people they should just sit tight until the regular OTA comes through, or if they release a stock image. Remember, unlike last year's Pure model, this year's Moto X Pure isn't considered a developer device. Flashable stock images may not officially come from Moto, so you may be at the mercy of another developer to get them.
[X Style (Pure) General] ibila:
True...but: "most people don't come xda" and "most people that have root and twrp know how to handle a flashable zip"
[X Style (Pure) General] NoNameAtAll:
Yeah, uh, if history's any indication, there's going to be an update to the bootloader which will make downgrading a royal pain. At that point, you'd be waiting and hoping for a SBF/FXZ if something goes awry.

Hence why I'd exercise patience in this case...
[X Style (Pure) General] hbar98:
I would agree with you, except for the number of "How do I flash..." posts that crop up when new releases come out. I still read where people are complaining, on XDA, that their N6 or N7'13 still hasn't gotten Android M, and when someone posts about just flashing the image they don't know how to do it.
[X Style (Pure) General] Orion116:
Then they use a toolkit and brick?
[X Style (Pure) General] hbar98:
My best learning experiences came from breaking stuff and figuring how to fix it. Of course, that was before the internet and its instant answers, when you actually had to figure out things for yourself.

Then again, I really appreciate the collected experience that XDA provides. It has gotten me out of more than one jam...
[X Style (Pure) General] ibila:
Impossible to brick an N6...believe me...I've tried..:)
[X Style (Pure) General] joshw0000:
It's quite easy. Give me 5 minutes, no computer or root needed.

Log in with my Google account, enable Google's security, hard reset, hand it back. You now have a paperweight.
[X Style (Pure) General] patt2k:
Sure but if you do nandroid backup it won't work ;) won't ask for it.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshw0000:
No nandroids if it's not unlocked with custom recovery. And can't be unlocked unless Enable OEM Unlock is checked from the settings (which you would have to get past the Google Lock screen to switch). [emoji12]
[X Style (Pure) General] patt2k:
It's weird because I flashed stock rom and have custom recovery of course and it asked me for my google account,when I did nan-droid it did not and as of now I do not have checked oem unlock. I only did it first time when I unlocked bootloader.
[X Style (Pure) General] joshw0000:
You only have to check it to do fastboot oem unlock. After that it doesn't matter. A nandroid is already logged in under a Google account so it won't Google Lock. Therefore if you Google Lock your phone I'd be able to flash a nandroid or a rom with a modified /system and get into it. If you were to Google Lock a N6 with a locked bootloader, then it becomes a paperweight without the Google account info.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OCedHrt:
Basically, the phone (G925T) is fast when I'm not really using it, and lagging and freezing as heck when it is most depended on.

I have mitigated this by rooting and migrating most of the third party apps from system to user, and freezing other Samsung bloat. But this prevents me from using Android Pay and Samsung Pay.

I have read many threads on memory or multitasking performance issues, but the only stock compatible solution is to use ADB based Package Disabler. This is insufficient unless I also disable Google services, which just gives me a fancy paperweight.

Is my experience not the standard and my device is just defective? I have re-flashed and reset the device more times than I can count and don't see how a hardware defect can cause such software issues.

Basically, the main symptom is that the phone is very slow and even locks up during key times because

1. System apps using more than 1.7 GB ram and less than 300 MB free.

2. Compounding on #1, device struggles with Google Maps navigation + Play Music active.

3. Some may have noticed I have about 1 GB of memory unaccounted for, and that is the other installed apps are using or caching 1 GB of memory.

Just upgraded to OH6 5.1.1 (forgoing fingerprint reader without tripped Knox) to see if the issues have been resolved. Unfortunately, the experience is pretty much the same as I had in the beginning.

Is there any way to have a usable device with Android Pay or Samsung Pay?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snowby123:
Android pay and Samsung pay require the fingerprint scanner. Additionally, it has been confirmed that android pay can detect the su binaries, so it will not work with root. Sounds like your phone has many performance problems that have been mentioned before. There are very few tweaks that can be performed without root. Sounds like you have a tradeoff between superior performance and Samsung pay
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thatsupnow:
Take the phone back and get a different one. You obviously got a lemon
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OCedHrt:
I mean, there must be a lot of users on stock without issues. Or are my expectations too high?

Looks like I am going to try that. But my only option may be exchange through Samsung and I don't think they're going to that readily swap the phone. And don't think T-mobile does in store changes beyond 14 days.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snowby123:
Some users have less issues than others. The first three weeks I owned my Verizon S6 Edge I had no issue, then the next week the phone would freeze up daily. Ten days later I obtained root, and with a small number of changes, not only has the phone been super fast, but battery life has been extended from ~20 hours to ~120 hours.

As far as making an exchange, that is hit and miss. You could always ask about an exchange. I know every phone I have bought through a carrier

I have been able to replace it for free no questions asked whenever there was a performance issue I could not address.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OCedHrt:
I have discovered the freezing due to use of third-party keyboard. Actually, any third-party keyboard. It seems running the keyboards as System app rather than User app fixes the issue. Maybe it is an incompatibility with the lock screen.

Unfortunately, this requires root, which means Android Pay and Samsung Pay is not usable.
