[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] christianrance:
Fully stock SM-N920P. Only seeing 1.5% in Deep sleep since buying the phone. Average between 55% - 60% at 400Mhz. Something's off (IMO). I use System Monitor, GSam Battery Monitor, etc and Android System seems to account for the most battery drain which I think is OK. Screenshots attached. Any idea how to get the Deep sleep time up?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mchu6am4:
​​I'm coming from n5 and really wanted to upgrade to n6p until I saw the price! This is one of reasons I didn't upgrade to n6 when it was released last year, the other being that it seemed too big!...

I recently purchased n6 64gb for about £200 from rakuten (£200 as got £80 worth of points)... I'm a tinkerer and love timely updates to OS when Google releases new versions and hence why I really wanted you stay with nexus, plus the fact that there's more development for nexus devices than any other devices...

I've requested a return but not received the RMA yet... I was probably going to stay with n5 until n6p prices come down or buy either moto x style or g4 whichever received timely Android 6 update...

Any advice / suggestions welcome ? Am I going to regret sending n6 back especially considering the price (my main reason for sending back is the size... Seems like a spade in my hand and I've had a look and no other manufacturer has released such a ginormous phone recently... Even Google played safe this time with 5.7")...same as note 5!...

Also, as current owners of n6 what would you say about the size? Have you learnt to live with it or do you love the size that any smaller you would find hard to accept?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
ginormous.. its all related to how you personally see the world. i had a n5, bought a n6, grabbed my n5 3 days later and it felt way to small. i im not a big person. im 5'7", with medium small hands. and the n6 feels so perfect in size.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benhidalgo:
I love my n6. I will get the n6p for no reason when it goes down in price. My n6 was 300. Oh yea I will be giving it to my sister and keeping the n6p. I would keep the n6 if I was you. For the reason that there is not one phone out there like it. This phone is so unlocked unblocked. You can never stop doing so much to it. Hopefully n6p is as equal.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
I came from a N5 about 2 weeks ago. Always felt the N6 was too big, but after the recent price drops on it at Amazon I bought one... 2 days later I got used to it fully and now love the size. Even my wife who is tiny, is starting to like the size of the phone. I loved the N5 but at this point I feel the N5 is just too small now. I love the N6. But I get that the N6 is not for everyone.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Dennis_:
I've used the N6 off and on since February, and I still feel it's to big, sane as the Xperia z ultra I had. Note 4 was a better size, though somewhat awkward to hold for me. My bit to small, but i I'm switching back to it when ever my brother sends it back to me. I was going to get the N6P but I think I'll wait a bit, maybe get the Xperia Z5P.

And now, I cannot have phone with smaller screen size.

5.7" is OK, but N6P is ridiculously expensive right now. So, I am holding not to upgrade. Besides, N6 is still decent, great performance, great battery life (even better with Android 6.0)!

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leondestiny:
well i recently bought the Nexus 6, and i love it to bits.

i always was a Sammy fan but i got sick of the source codes not being released for the Exynos models of theirs... and their latest Phones s6 etc. are kind of locked completely so i made a jump to the Nexus 6 from my Note 4 which i still have,

and damn even though the Nexus 6 is bigger it feels so much better than my Note 4, and the bigger plus point is the Custom Rom section it got loads of Roms.

i even think that it looks way way better than the new Nexus 6p , it depends on you and your wallet in the end though.

i would suggest keeping your current Nexus 6 simply because it is a beautiful beast , it rocks.

my only minus poiint is that the battery is abit disappointing .
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mchu6am4:
Many thanks...

Thanks - Just like you I was a big Sammy fan until I tried a Nexus 4 and instantly loved the speed and experience...and not long after decided to purchase Nexus 5 which i've nearly had for two years and still loving it...but wanted a change!

I was going to give Sammy another go with either S6 or Note 4 until I saw their ridiculous prices and lack of memory expansion not to mention swappable battery (though this would not bother me if the manufacturers use a decent size battery!)...and thought nah...Sod Samsung for their arrogance, they wont get my custom!

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toffee_pie:
guys.

I got a C variant and its fantastic, but a few things.

How on earth do i create folders in the apps area or move apps inside new created folders, When I long press on an app i want to move it just drags it to the home screen, I want it moved into a folder in the app area, not in the home screen(s)

second, the s pen, with the note 4 you could grab a image or whatnot and it would extract text from this (T was up in the top corner to signify this), you could then email or share the text it extracted from an image. Can the note 5 not do this?

lastly, can you get 2A wireless charge pads or what is the highest output these provide?

cheers.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edwards2243:
Q#1--When you open the apps drawer, you need to hit "edit", then you can drag/drop on app on top of another to create a new folder.

I rarely use the s pen, so I can't answer your second question. As far as the third question, wireless charging abides by a Qi standard, so there's only standard charging and the new fast charger.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maybeme2:
I'm on a rooted nexus 5 running stock kitkat 4.4.4 and xposed framework. I have no wish to update the operating system. I was able to stop the system update notifications in the past by simply disabling 3 receivers :

service:com.google.android.gms.update.SystemUpdateService$ Receiver

com.google.android.gms.update.SystemUpdateService$ ActiveReceiver

com.google.android.gms.update.SystemUpdateService$ SecretCodeReceiver

This worked for a while, then the system update notification appeared again! This time, to get rid of the notification I needed to use several adb commands:

1. adb shell su -c pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateService$ActiveReceiver

2. adb shell su -c pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateService$Receiver

3. adb shell su -c pm disable com.google.android.gms/.update.SystemUpdateService$SecretCodeReceiver

4. adb shell su -c pm disable com.google.android.gsf/.update.SystemUpdateActivity

5. adb shell su -c pm disable com.google.android.gsf/.update.SystemUpdatePanoActivity

6. adb shell su -c pm disable com.google.android.gsf/.update.SystemUpdateService

7. adb shell su -c pm disable com.google.android.gsf/.update.SystemUpdateService$Receiver

8. adb shell su -c pm disable com.google.android.gsf/.update.SystemUpdateService$SecretCodeReceiver

That worked - for a while..... ?

The notification to update to 5.0.1 has reappeared again. What else should I do to stop it this time?

Appreciate any help.

That's a lot of work. And you're missing out on a bunch of pretty important security updates.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maybeme2:
Like it the way it is.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phantom146:
I recommend you installing three apps to disable this fully:

AppOpsXposed

MyAndroidTools

Servicely

In appopsxposed what you need to do is to disable the "wake up" function of google play services as well as other brothers of it (google services framework)

MyAndroidTools

to disable update service simply go to the services tab in it and search for google play services:

On the upper right side click Full/Short button and you should be able to see the full extension file for each services

Search Update$Service and disablle all related services for it (there are 4, policyintent, updaterservice and I forgot the last two)

Servicely is to stop the all in all process and services of Gsm/Gcm which reboots the update service(dont know if this is a leak)

just install it into priv-app and give octal permission 0777 and select google play service and frameworks as a hitlist and you should have no worries about anything.

Let me know when this helped you and please press thanks if it does :) try it first it wont consume much time

OK. I installed all 3 apps.

1. Did the appOpsXposed part.

2. Have trouble in Myandroidtools. None of the items have Update$Service in them. (No $). I'm attaching a screenshot so you can tell me which 4 to disable.

3. I installed Servicely but, how do I "install it into priv-app" ?

Thank you.

Here's the screenshot
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phantom146:
Red means it was disabled.

To disable a service and a receiver click the name itself not the checkbox and no you didntessed up it disappeared becauseit was an active service it went to the bottom line of the queue

Let me give you a screenshot here

You didn't messed up just relax :)

It disappeared because it was moved back to queue.

To disable a service and a receiver let me remind you to click the name not the checkbox, if you click the checkbox it will reappear again.

Heres the system update service and receiver i disabled for you and my wakelocks for Gplayservices as well as my partial wakelocks in my N5 with heavy tweaks on my battery life, shown by BBS(better battery stats)

I dont have any wakeups from Gplayservices to be honest :)

and here is my batt life with some data usage on

---------- Post added at 04:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 AM ----------

Download root explorer or any explorer that can do a read/write(basically almost all of them such as solid explorer)

download the apk for servicely you can find a lot inside the huge cloud of the internet haha

once downloaded copy the servicely apk using the explorer of your choice and navigate to root/system/priv-app and paste it there. Press and hold the apk it should prompt you with many choices, find permissions there and put check on all the boxes for permissions

dont forget that you need to enable r/w or read/write permission first for your explorer or else you wont be able to edit permissions or move an apk file inside the system/priv-app

"on the orbit" - file explorer -my device-windows - "paste sound file" then exit.

then i go to - sounds and notifications,notifications, event - messaging new text message - then drop down options menu but no sign of the file !!!!

am i not doing things correctly ? any further tips or instructions would be very welcome.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hichhiker:
Ok, so for once I have a stock, unrooted phone, AT&T S5. Ever since the last firmware upgrade I've been getting a lot of storage issues, so I started looking at things and none of it makes sense to me. I use an sdcard for just about everything, but this is how the storage breaks down at the moment on the internal storage :

16gb total

11.5 gb in 'internal storage' - meaning, as I understand, 4.5gb of OS partitions

This is where things get squirrely

1.28 gb of used user files

1.5gb free

0 gb cache (i just emptied it.)

So, about 8+gb are in unnamed 'system, but not os' files. Wtf??

The way I read this it I have 3gb of usable space - shared with cache (that within days goes to 1.5gb+) on a 16gb phone. Meanwhile, I went through and moved just about anything of size to sdcard. I have a fair number of apps, but not an extreme amount and nothing that unusual.

So, is this normal? And is there a way to figure out what is stealing that 8+gb of space without root and maybe remove it??

Part of me suspects it is some non-cache temp files - esp firmware updates (there have been a few, and they are large, and things seem to get worse after each firmware push.

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woshiweili:
Since 5.0, it has been a painful to get to true silent mode with Android. If you press the volume down button all the way, it tuns into vibrate instead of mute. However, in the past, I can just click on the vibrate icon and it turns into silent mode. With Marshmallow though this trick no longer works. Are there any ways around it? I do not like or want the DND mode because I still want to know when my e-mails and other notifications are coming in, I just don't want my Nexus 9 to beep or vibrate when they do. Thanks.
