[Nexus 5X General] Oni_Shadow:
Hi guys, I have a question,

I have been able to use my data connection without any problem on my firefox OS device. Since I use my nexus 5X, the is not possible (a message it telling me to active this feature on att.com event though i am using H2o Carrier (which uses att network) )

So here is my question, how come the nexus 5x which is suppose to be unlock cannot do internet tethering ? Why did it work with FirefoxOS but not Android ? How do they block that ?

Cheers

O_S
[Nexus 5X General] churchey360:
Yeah 6.0.1 blocked it you can do it still but when you connect the device to it you can't get internet connection.. Sucks..
[Nexus 5X General] EVO in OHIO:
Hopefully there will be a work around, or Foxfi will get updated to work
[Nexus 5X General] AlainD831:
Thank you OP for the tray trick !!! - works great (wait about 3 sec) on Moto X (2013) running 5.1 on Cricket (was AT&T b4)

Might need to root and make it permanent as it's not convenient to take case off and carry a pin around each time, but better than nothing...

Update: got a Nexus 5x with 6.0.1 and the trick works as well, though more often than not hotspot is on BUT no data/LTE symbol. But I got it to work at times. more finicky.
[Nexus 5X General] AlainD831:
how can you write to necessary file without root access ? (from command shell I supposed)

When you mention chrome extension, how does that come into play (browsing on your computer, but how does it get wifi tethering access anyway ?)

Please explain (got Moto X 2013 running 5.1 non rooted originally AT&T but unlocked on Cricket now).
[Nexus 5X General] modma:
Hey everyone! So, I'm new to the whole Nexus and rooting thing but have used Android for a while (mostly HTC and Samsung stock devices). I came to Nexus because I thought I'd give it a shot and I'm super pleased with how it works, how fast it is, etc compared to non-Nexus devices. I went and downloaded the Android SDK tools, copy and pasted all the instructions, and got all ready to make this build.prop edit until I realised that the cable is a USB-C and it doesn't plug into my computer. The entire week I had this device I just assumed the charger was USB-A on the brick side and USB-C on the phone side, but alas, it's not. So, silly question, what cables are you all using to do this stuff? Is there an adapter on Amazon you recommend over another because I see a lot!

Thanks in advance!

Cheers!

Interesting the 5X is different from the OG Nexus 5 in this feature. I'm on the $30/mo t-mobile plan, and I just swipe down from the quick settings menu to turn on the hot spot. My Nexus 5 is not rooted.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Molitro:
Hello there.

I give up, don't know how to continue.

When 6.0 came out there was some trouble trying to get ADB to work on Windows 10, but installing the driver manually got the trick done. Selecting the driver in device manager got it installed and worked.

Well, today I needed to use fastboot, and found that it didn't work. So there I went to try to install yet another driver, and there it all went to hell.

No fastboot driver installed, so I went back to clean also the ADB driver, and now it doesn't install that either. I've tried the google's drivers, the good old universal naked driver with signature off, a driver and ADB/Fastboot installer that there is here in XDA... Every single one now throws the same error. Windows just won't install them.

That's the error.

Basically goes like this:

Windows found a problem installing the driver.

Windows found a driver but an error was found when installing it.

And the description is something like:

One of the installers for this device can't perform the installation at this time.

Every single driver, or option when installing manually that I choose, now throws back this error.

Is this something that's already been fixed around here but I haven't found it? Driving me nuts already.

Edit: Ok the problem seems to be with windows itself, so I guess this thread doesn't belong here.

[Nexus 5X General] marvi0:
hmm, thanks for sharing guys. My Wifes galaxy s6 clocks over 60K. These are pretty much same price if looking at the right places. Still very torn but I suspect the 2gb of ram is the main culprit.
[Nexus 5X General] gotzaDroid:
My S6E clocked in at 67,000, but it still lagged and stuttered more than my 5X. Also the constant home screen redraws and aggressive RAM management... It all just means that benchmarks don't always show the actual day to day user experience.
[Nexus 5X General] EeZeEpEe:
You should compare both Antutu results from the S6 and 5X. I'm sure it's probably everything in combination as the S6 has a better processor, RAM amount and type, and graphics processor.

[Nexus 5X General] 3's&7's:
They can't be compared, they are completely different devices from chips set to core / ram count. But maybe the biggest difference is that Samsung devices are "wired" to benchmark @ ridiculous levels. Its basically volkswagen emissions testing; hell I bet they share firmware engineers lol!

The 6p won't be able to push much further than a oneplus two or HTC m9. Next year will be more of an equalizer on chipsets if everyone goes with the snapdragon 820.

Nexus is an experience, IMO, and is all about device control and pushing android to its best levels possible.
[Nexus 5X General] Jexx11:
Oddly enough, benchmarks vary a lot on my 5x, I suppose it has a lot to do with throttling and what not. I've ran Antutu 3 times and gotten scores of 37,000, 42,000, and 49,000.

[Nexus 5X General] jonup:
Thermal throttling is the most significant factor affecting benchmark performance. So if it's not controlled, results are useless for comparison purpose. Even the same device will show significant score variation with as little as 5F change in the ambient temperature (at higher base temp change effect will be more significant). This being, it's very coincidental you posted your score when the temperatures dropped in the 20s, 30s, and low 40s across the entire country. Pointing a finger when you actually are using a lower ambient temperature is a bit hypothetical, don't you think?
[Nexus 5X General] pitt93:
now where i live there's about 25°-18° (max-min), not hot but non too low....the truth is that i'm using a modded thermal engine, but that's not the point, I just wanted to play, my goal isn't rate the real world performance, i've only tried to make a higer result. Thatt's all

[Nexus 5X General] doitright:
Wow, these benchmark numbers are pretty telling about this generation of 64bit hardware. Judging by the numbers I'm seeing, the only thing actually keeping these things above a Nexus 6 SD805 is the fact that you have 50% more cores.

The UX is marginally higher than the 805, the multithreaded integer pretty thoroughly clobbers the 805, though float is only marginally better. The 805's single threaded math quite thoroughly OBLITERATES the 808 (2990 and 2746 vs 2184 and 1926), the rest of the way down the line they're pretty close. I was really expecting the A57's to have a better showing against the Krait's (i.e. single threaded math).

Number on my N6/SD805 came to 50392.

TBH, I would be a bit disappointed with the 808.

[Nexus 5X General] Baldilocks:
Even with ElementalX kernel, best I can get is around 46,000. What settings are you using?
[Nexus 5X General] szucsgf:
Stock ROM, EX kernel with default settings except I changed hispeed_freq to max CPU on each cluster and overclocked as per my posts above. With stock frequencies I get about 55k Anututu. Honestly I think the biggest variable is temperature: I first keep the phone by an open window for a few minutes to get cool, then run the benchmark by the window as well. I'm making sure the CPU doesn't get throttled.
[Nexus 5X General] Alcolawl:
Finally relented and flashed an AOSP ROM along with Phasma Kernel.

Much better results this time. No overclocking, just followed [MENTION=4783761]szucsgf[/MENTION]'s advice and kept it near a window while benchmarking. Zen I/O Scheduler, 768kb Readahead value. Ran the benchmark twice, once with Impulse governor (geared more towards battery) and scored like 51k. This time I used the Performance Governor, which just pegs the cores at their maximum frequency and got a much better result. What's interesting is that some of my scores are still lower than my previous score. However, I was overclocked then, so I feel there is potential for higher scores, perhaps 60k like szucsgf said before.

ROM and Kernel are in my signature for those that are curious.
[Nexus 5X General] szucsgf:

[Nexus 5X General] MrHollow:
Yeah so basically the scores in this thread completely prove what i said here. The CPU is throttling like crazy.

Also for the sake of the conversation i just finished this benchmark @ 35% battery and with the phone completely cool to begin with.

[MENTION=4783761]szucsgf[/MENTION] Can you control the throttling levels/amount using a custom kernel? For example i want to stop it from going below a certain threshold even if it gets hot. My phone goes to below 43k in antutu if it gets warm.
[Nexus 5X General] szucsgf:
I don't believe there is yet a custom kernel that can control the throttle thresholds. On the Nexus 5 ElementalX kernel had this option, but this option doesn't yet seem to exist for the Nexus 5X. I am eagerly waiting, because I too think the throttle is too aggressive and would like to modify it a little.

As I mentioned earlier in this thread, to get my high Antutu scores I first let the phone cool by an open window for 5-10 minutes and then ran the benchmark by the open window (plus a little overclock, but with stock frequencies I get about 56k in Antutu). I'm in Canada and it's around 0-10 degrees C this time of year. If you live in a warmer place you'd have to cool your phone some other way.

In any case, I think this phone is capable of awesome performance but the aggressive thermal throttle limits it.

I doubt that the 5X will reach that number, I'm thinking more along a score of 60000.

Which is pretty weak for a phone which scores only 10000 more than a 2 year old Nexus 5. The 6P performs considerably better, scoring about 90000.

[Nexus 5X General] bblzd:
High end phone performance is supposed to come in bursts. The phone is throttling to remain cooler in our hands as intended.

Sustained graphics performance remains high even at the 5x's maximum throttled point due to the 1080p resolution and 418 GPU + 4xA53 cores at their maximum clock speed of 1.44Ghz.

Compared to the Nexus 5 and 6 it has higher sustained graphical performance and remains cooler while doing so. Gaming and GPS navigation are some of the few moments where the device will be under sustained heavy load for long periods of time.

You can see in the Anandtech review that the 5x had a higher sustained performance than any of the other Android devices they tested, including twice the frame rates by the end of the test than the Nexus 6 and its 20% faster Adreno 420 GPU which is forced to push 2k resolution.

Due to throttling the A57 cores the battery life under sustained load is improved as well.

Lastly the 5x remains cooler than other devices due to this. An improvement I hear very few people mention or even notice despite the number of complaints that go the other way. You can see measured results of this in the Notebookcheck review here.

So I say ignore the simulation results which we all know mean very little in real world scenarios and enjoy the enhanced usability we've been provided.
