Hey Everyone!

Great news! Just got in the new USB 3.0 Type A to Type C Cables, Orzly sent them to me for review and stated they are USB Spec compliant. I have a Pixel on the way so as soon as its in ill try them out! [IMG="New USB Cables"]http://imgur.com/97TEcEp.jpg[/IMG]
[Nexus 6P Accessories] indianajonze:
well hopefully they're different and redesigned from the ones benson tested and hammered. otherwise your enthusiasm may be short-lived
[Nexus 6P Accessories] DustinDep:
Yea these are the new version of them that will be replacing there old non compliant multi pack, they said they couldnt believe what happened and were rushing to correct the issue ASAP. apparently they used the OP2 cable as their design standard
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Rattles:
Can't wait to hear if they pass your testing. We need more options and Orzly makes good stuff.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] indianajonze:
lol say no more, i'd say we've identified the initial issue right there
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Lw00d:
hope orzly fix

Yeah find that confusing and frustrating! Amazon will be receiving an email from me ?

[Nexus 6P Accessories] Nekromantik:
Anyone recommend a good but not too expensive that will charge the 6P using stock Google C to A cable at fast speeds?

I know it wont charge as fast as stock charger but want something around 2000mah.

I bought a USB voltage/current meter and plugged into one of the 2.4 amp ports in my Aukey 42W charger (note, I am not using the QC 2.0 port)

The 6P is not pulling more than 2 Amps.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Your picture didn't show battery level of the phone. Could you share that with us as it affects charging current?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] motoridersd:
I don't remember exactly, but around 30% I'll have to check when the battery is lower.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Powell730:
I think I've fried my brain reading all the different threads/articles. OK... So we have some established cables in the OP... What about the brick? I'm using my Samsung fast charger, I read somewhere that's not safe... Is that the case?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
It's not safe if the charger, cable, phone combination draws more current than the charger can handle. Check the ratings of the charger, and install a charging monitoring app (I prefer Ampere, but there are tons on the play store), then monitor the charging current pulled - preferably while your battery is very low. If it draws more than the charger is rated for, I wouldn't use it. If you want to play it safe, use a Google cable or one that has been confirmed to adhere to specs.

Some will say this: even if the phone draws more than what the charger is rated to output, you should be safe because the manufacturer should have put protection mechanisms in place to keep anything from blowing up.

I would say: I'm not trusting $30 worth of charger / improperly built cables with my $700 Nexus. It's not worth it.

---------- Post added at 08:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 PM ----------

Also, of you are unfamiliar with the terms of electricity, the charging app will probably show you current draw in mA. 1000 mA = 1.0A.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] akenis:
Did Google review their own C to A cable:

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

The description says 3A?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Yes. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63614861&postcount=91
[Nexus 6P Accessories] akenis:
Just got the official Google 2 port charger:

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

I had read that only one of the ports would get up to 3A. I confirm that. The port closest to the white Google logo face must be used.

But that's not all. Additionally

1) the brick with cable must be plugged into the wall before connecting the cable to the phone or

2) the brick must be plugged into the wall before connecting the cable and phone to it

Basically, you can't have all three parts assembled and then plug the brick into the wall. If you do, it peaks out at 1.5 A.

This behavior does not exist with the stock charger.

OK..well I had two drinks, so someone confirm this. It was driving me crazy.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ns_vu:
Is there no 2 meter (6.6ft) USB C to USB C cable other than Monoprice? I issued a return for non-compliant cable and now I'm looking for a replacement.

Belkin must be out their mind to charge $30 for a USB C cable.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] indianajonze:
the monoprice one is compliant...

but anyway, google c to c cable is 5.9 ft if you're willing to lose a few inches

[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pilz:
Just so everyone knows the OP cables/adapter aren't up to spec. I've used them without breaking anything so far but i don't know if i will now that I know they aren't up to spec.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Venomqld:
I have one of those cables coming from Aliexpress, as for ugreen the build quality is nice as i have a ugreen micro usb cable and never had problem with it.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] sharpehenry:
CHOETECH just released their USB type C related cables. I've ordered one with Type A to Type C 1 meter long (seems to be a sweet spot for the price) seems like they are following the USB standards.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0176BSAWU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00

I already bought one just to test it out, I think I'll buy some more from them. I've had their products (wireless charging, other cables and etc) and was very happy with them.

go check their stuff out.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ylexot:
They also have a Type C wall charger.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] akenis:
Thanks... Ordered one. Has anyone reviewed it? Form factor looks similar to stock. I'll be set now: this one at office, Google 2 port at home, and stock in my bag.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] jawmail:
I've just tested my oneplus cable and iorange cables on the 6P and they both came up good, test value of 500. I thought he said in his + page the oneplus cable was no good?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Powell730:
So these are the stats I got with my cable and a Samsung car fast charger... Assuming it doesn't get higher than this, I should be safe... Right? BTW the charger is rated for 9v @ 1.67a or 5v @ 2a
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
Well, you're pulling 2.13A from a 2.0A charger. You are exceeding the rated specs of the charger, although not by a large amount.. Whether that is an acceptable risk is up to you.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Powell730:
Ah, OK. Theoretically speaking, since the phone is rated for 3a, the only thing at risk here is the charger and/or cable? Or is it still possible this could damage the phone?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
[MENTION=3275935]Powell730[/MENTION]

Yes, generally speaking, but the initial point of failure is the charger, and just like with any power supply it depends on what fails. It could surge power to the phone. Or it could just quit working. Or it could just brown out. Or it could just get hot. Or it can handle it and all is well. Lots of ors and coulds going on here.

I'd be lying if I said I would be comfortable charging my 128GB Nexus with that set up, considering the relatively low cost of this : https://store.google.com/product/usb_c_charger or this https://store.google.com/product/usb_type_c_to_usb_standard_a_plug_cable or this http://amzn.com/B0179HN184. The last one hasn't been tested, but given it uses a captive cable and is rated 5V/3A, I have high hopes.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] DustinDep:
What was your phone battery at?!

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:12 PM ----------

Good news!!! I just got in my Pixel yesterday and tested a load of new cables from Orzly and the OnePlus Cables and adapters! Bad news is the OP are def out of spec even the adapter! Good news all the new Orzly cables meet specs video is uploading now!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] gizzmoffm:
You have to add the mA that the phone is currently drawing (Find this out using Ampere without charger connected)

This would be something around 500mA or more, so you're pulling about 2,8A out of a 2A charger which can be very dangerous.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] subhani:
-I just wanted to confirm that (obviously) the 6P draws 2.3A from stock Google supplied charger when I plugged in at approx 68% when reading this thread. Using Ampere app that is.

-As soon as the battery level reached 77%, the 6P was only drawing 1.7A for the rest of the top up.

-Do you think the 6P would have drawn more had I waited and plugged in at a lower battery level of say 10%?

-Is there any truth to this post? If so, what does the below SS mean? It was obviously discharging and not plugged in.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] gizzmoffm:
Yes, read the App description in the Play Store, its more or less exactly what I wrote.

You should also see different measurements when adjusting screen brightness. Higher brightness means more drain, so there is less current left to flow into the battery which is the value shown by the Ampere app.

You are seeing 2300 mA in Ampere (which flows into the battery) and 700 mA (this is what the device drains from battery when not charging). Sum it up - et voila: 3000 mA, exactly what USB C is designed for.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] akenis:
Interesting...it's the net amps into battery.

Question then...how am I seeing 2900 mA with say stock chargers?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pilz:
I paid with PayPal so I opened a dispute
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ironjaw:
Interesting - I opened a ticket with One+ so Paypal will be my next line of attack.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] gizzmoffm:
Are you seeing this?

This is interesting and contradicts the description of the App.

But this may also be some wrong measurement. Ampere just shows what the battery controller reports...

There is an App called Battery Monitor Widget which writes the current to a logfile even if the screen is off, that would definitely be interesting in this situation...
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ns_vu:
My Pecham USB C to C did not charge my phone nearly as fast as the Google/Monoprice cable.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] Koysii:
Confused need a good type A power brick or a 3meter type C to type C cable...

I'm a bit confused here...

My Nexus 6P with full screen brightness was discharging at near -1600mah???

Then when plugged in using a Amazon JuiceBitz or some such name rated at 5V/3.1amp USB A plug, it was discharging at about 900mah. But my Note 3's power brick rated at 5V/2A was discharging at near 1300mah. Each time I left the charger attached for around 2 mins.

Also using a 3meter Anker braided micro USB cable with a type C adapter. The supplied Google cable is too short.

Can anyone recommend me any good (price isn't much of an issue but reasonable) 5V/2A power bricks from Amazon or eBay or even a genuine Samsung power brick? The Note 3 will be sold soon so need a good type A power brick as I can use it to charge other items too like my Nexus 7 and Kindle paperwhite.

Discharging at -1590??

Why not get https://store.google.com/product/usb_c_dual_port_charger and http://amzn.com/B00UUBRYS0 for your legacy devices? That way you get 5V/3A for the 6P and can still charge everything else.

Edit: It would be a more future proof way of going about it too.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] wirelezzz:
As long as the totally amperage used on phone is less then the charger specs there should be no issue no?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] NCguy:
It's not about what the phone uses. It's about the charge current it attempts to draw.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] wirelezzz:
OK gotcha. Does the app ampere shows that as well? Just wondering how this can be checked or monitored?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] NCguy:
I'm not an expert with that app but I believe you can tell a lot from it.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Elnrik:
It says stuff like that.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] gizzmoffm:
Well.. they do not follow the specs.

As far as I know they have the C-C lines floating without any resistor, so they will not advertise a specific current.

I assume that the Nexus 5X and 6P will then assume that this is a legacy cable and try to detect the current using D+/D- probing.

Benson Leung wrote that the Pixel refuses to charge at all using these adapters.

TL;DR

I *think* they are safe to use, but I personally would not keep out-of-spec accessories around. They may cause severe issues in the future.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] wirelezzz:
OK I'll return them once they arrive in mail lol ?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ns_vu:
Is this C to C compliant? It's on Amazon with prime shipping but I've already dealt with C to C cables not charging as fast as the Google cable.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oriya:
I got the device about three days ago.

There is a severe problem with this phone.

I have a very annoying and frustrating problem with the gestures in my new OnePlus2. Of course, the gesturs are enabled (except the music gesture). It seems like it works only on specific spot on the screen(mainly bottom-left), I succeed to make the gesture in 1 case out of 20( and I'm being generous here). The touch is fine, when the phone is awake the screen is good, except when it locked and I try to make a gesture.

This thread is intended for those who ordered their Nexus 6P through Project Fi to sound off their experiences thus far, but since most don't have their phones yet; it is instead a waiting room. Now, I know that there is already a shipping waiting room thread, but this thread is intended solely for orders of the 6P through the Fi, which has different stock and availability from that of the Google Store.

Though not required, it will help to include all the gist of the order: (date ordered, color, memory, expected ship date, etc).

If your phone is already in hand and you would like to share your overall experience with the 6P on the Fi network, you could post so as well. ;)

I saw so many orders shipped early... so I was hoping that mine would be one of them, but I'm still waiting. I am financing through Project Fi. Details are below:

Status: Pending

At least I have time to get accessories before I have my phone. So far I got some plastic screen protectors (and preordered the Skinomi TGSP), the RavPower USB C portable charger, and a couple of very cheap microUSB to USB C adapters from Ebay. Still looking for a car charger (might settle for the Tronsmart one) and a case (might settle for the Verus case).
