Based on the photos, it seems identical to the cable Google sells. Wouldn't be surprised if they both came from the same place.

My question is this: why are people buying all kinds of usb-c to other versions of usb cables? The phone comes with everything one needs to charge or plug into a computer. Unless everyone wants cables for every room in the house...?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsk23:
I leave my stock charger in the living, but I want an adapter for overnight use to plug it in to my 2.4v Nexus 7 charger that stays in my bedroom.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inneyeseakay:
The 6p comes with 2 cables already... One usb-c>usb-c and one usb-c>usb-a... So use the usbc/c cable for home and the usbc/a cable for travel.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirxdroid:
Work, car, etc. I don't want to remember to take the charger/cable with me to work or in the car, I just want to leave them there. And the short cable that comes with the 6P is well ... too short. If you have a desktop computer sitting on the floor or want to charge from the wall or the car, it's just not good enough.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wvcadle:
Fair enough!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsk23:
This has nothing to do with travel. and the c-a cable it comes with is too damn short to use for much beyond data transfer. Unless the USB a charger is literally plugged in right next to where the phone is going to sit.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zilla.:
I'm trying to figure out how this new charging thing works as far as the required cable/charger.

I bought the iOrange-E cable from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/iOrange-E-Braided-Reversible-Connector-ChromeBook/dp/B010VFFSL4/

I have a charger from my old Galaxy S4 that is 5V-1A. When I plug the iOrange in that charger and to my phone, it will say "Charging" but will not steadily charge. What I mean by that is that it'll change states to charging, then it'll stop charging, over and over again.

Another charger I have is 5 V - 2.1 A. With the iOrange cable, this works fine. It will say "Charging."

I have an Anker car charger. This is the one I have: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FYQKMRG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage

I'm not sure what the V/A is on that but with the included USB C -- USB A cable that was shipped with the Nexus 6P, it will charge.

I don't have the USB specs but does anyone know what the minimum is for simply "Charging"? How about "Charging Rapidly?"

I'm assuming my 5V - 1 A charger is too low since it doesn't seem to charge the 6P properly.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirxdroid:
I saw the same thing with an HTC 1.5A charger. It charges for a few seconds and then it stops. Not sure what's going on, you'd think that it could at least pull the 500mA or 900mA per the USB spec. Another Anker charger that I have works.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enaybee:
I have this adapter Delmkin

It passes compatibility test using this app CheckR when hooked up with a tronsmart micro-USB cable.

Somebody mentioned that we have all what is needed inside the box and that's true and all but thing is most people don't want to carry their cables/chargers with them wherever they go. I have at least two charger with cables in each room of the house. One in each car and one at work. Makes it convenient since micro-USB cables/chargers are so cheap. Now with USB-C its a different story. One these cables are not cheap at all and now we are learning most of them aren't even complaint with the specs. So it helps to have a tiny adapter to be able to use all the cable I already own with Nexus 6P.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoff5093:
The 6P comes with a 3' Type C cable and 1' Type C to Type A cable. The 1' cable nearly useless unless you charge your phone right next to the USB port. Plus, most people want to have a charger at home, in the car, and at work.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NCguy:
Interesting. I didn't see any adapters that passed on the spreadsheet. But in theory if it passes CheckR then it should be good.

What clued you in on these?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enaybee:
Just dumb luck. I picked it up because it was the cheapest and had decent information available under product details.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NCguy:
Assuming it does not say fast charging with the adapter?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirxdroid:
Is there any magic in these adapters or are they just pass thru so then it depends on the micro USB cable really?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NCguy:
The magic is in the adapter. It's an ID resistor that tells the phone how much current to pull.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enaybee:
Adapter doesn't do any magic its just a pass through with usb-C shaped connector at the end. I don't have any technical details so forgive me if I am wrong.

However I read a comment here somewhere (some other thread) that USB-A to USB-C cable or adapter setup would never result in rapid charging due to number of connectors inside USB-A end of the cable. You need a certain number of connectors (only available when using USB-C to USB-C cable) to have rapid charging. I have tested my i-Orange A to C cable as well as a normal heavy gage tronsmart A to B micro-usb cable with C adapter with Qualcomm 2.0 charger and I couldn't get rapid charging. Only cable that is doing rapid charging is the adapter/cable combo that came pre-packaged with the phone. I haven't tried any after market USB-C chargers yet.

Right. No fast charging with adapter.

[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sledgie:
Hi gang,

I come to you today a little sad and depressed. I live in Pittsburgh and its blue skies here today, 73 degrees.

Naturally I'm out and about taking pictures.

Quick background, I love cameras. Love the S6 active, but there were times I wish I had more manual settings ( all the time).

Enter the LG V10. Loved the presentation, advertisements, heck I love manual video mode. But I'm a little disturbed by the quality.

I'm one of those people that zoom in, not necessarily to critique but to enjoy the delicacies that my eye cannot normally see.

Day1 of the LG V10, I dropped some money and bought it.

Was a little curious why after I take a picture whether it's in manual or auto mode I have to wait a second until I take another picture. This is 2015, almost 2016. Not 2012.

Also, the compression LG uses on this is...to say the least, disappointing. I'm talking picture mode. I zoom in just once and its distorted, blended, blurred. Why, LG, why?

This is LG's chance to shine. Not with the processor gpu or RAM, but with the camera and Video.

I'm considering fresh installing and master resetting this just to see if the camera is any better after complete reinstall. Has anybody had any success? I'm...seriously disappointed. Not a Samsung fanboy but when I see greatness I appreciate it. I know Samsung will copy this on next flagship, more manual camera and Video settings but this is now, I want a great camera that can compete with the big boys with that f1.8.

Any suggestions? I don't want to take this back but on a beautiful day like today, these pictures should be turning out amazing. Sad That the RAW image is crap too. ?
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sledgie:
Can anybody help or am I just whining (gulp)? Could I have a bad camera or not have an update?
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgbotoe:
Hate to say this, but sound like you are whining to me. Though I am not a camera savey individual...so I can't fully say. The camera...I can tolerate one second for anything. If I wanted true manual camera, I will buy a camera...a real one.

You could try factoring reset to see if that will change your perspective. Also you can return to the store and play with their store demo and see whats up.

From my stand point, i think you are whining lol
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sledgie:
Thanks. I honestly want to hear what other people say. I can wait too, but the point is not to wait with these processors. Snap snap snap. Just was curious about how other individuals felt, not the reviewers who honestly almost never know what they are doing or have another objective in mind.

Also thanks for honesty. I figure I am whining, I just wanted to see something amazing today.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mytwuk:
I think if hold the button down it will shoot in burst mode? Have you tried that?
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sledgie:
Yes, that's not what I'm referring to, however. From the time you take a picture to the time it takes to take the next picture, there is a delay.

That being said, there must have been something wrong while taking pictures outside yesterday. Not sure what but pictures are a little better today for another wonderful clear blue skies and 73 degrees.

Btw it appears to be an autofocus issue. I'll press button and it will take photo but won't allow me to take another photo for over a second. Same on G4. Tried it in Best Buy last night then the S6. S6 can repeatedly take shot almost instantaneously after you take last shot. I'm still not sure why there is such a delay.

Is this happening for everybody? I keep reading in posts that everyone who loves this phone the camera is "fast" and I'm not sure what they are referring to?
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fresco1337:
In AUTO mode I think it has a lot to do with HDR. If you turn that off, it'll be much faster. I'm not exactly sure how much will you lose in quality though...

But in Manual mode, it's quite fast for me. I can basically take the next picture instantenously. It doesn't have that lag that it has in Auto mode with HDR on.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcnbama:
After I read this I tested again to see how quickly mine takes shots and the details. I've not done too much with the camera as of yet.

The results :

In Auto mode with HDR auto it fires off pics as quickly as I can press the button.

In simple mode there is a slight delay because when I touch the screen it wants to focus then snap the pic.

There is a little bit of grain upon zooming in with both modes which I've not noticed before. Seems like a little much for a 16mp shooter and I don't think it was that much on my G3. I think for what it is though it is very solid. As some others have said if you want the most crisp detail for zooming an cropping you can't beat a true DSLR camera but I don't think you're sacrificing alot by using this for everyday point and shoot.
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jobo76:
Youre definitely NOT whining! I believed the v10 camera hype and bought one two days ago. And i agree 100% with you that the camera is not great. I'll even go further and state that it sucks. The shutter delay is bad and the quality is muddy and noisy beyond words in low light. This clearly stands as my last big mistake of 2015!
[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plastic_green_head:
I agree. The cams are absolutely not what they are hyped up to be. Especially the front cams. The selfie quality is just horrendous. Both cams are very noisy, terrible in low light, and blow out lights, lamps, etc. to an excessive amount. If I didn't get the phone on AT&T's Next plan.... it would be going back. The cam/vid hype was a huge decision in getting it & it doesn't live up to it.

The best thing to do is complain on both their Twitter & Facebook pages, although they are more responsive on Twitter. I would like to think a lot of these issues could be remedied with software updates for the cameras.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Davidinks:
Since having this phone since last week I've noticed reception that is worse than my previous Verizon Note 3. I live in a spotty/poor area for reception but it has been worse than ever before now on the 6P. Maybe something in the way I have it setup could help....maybe? At my house I never get 4G (even on my old Note 3 all I ever had was 3G) and at the office I used to get 4G on my Note 3 but now I only very occasionally see it show LTE above the bars at the top of the phone.

I've tried switching between Global, LTE/CDMA and LTE/GSM/UMTS under the cellular network settings and Global seems to return the best reception for me. What should be the best setting here for Verizon?

I have "Data Roaming" off; should it be on?

I have "Enhanced 4G LTE Mode" on; should it be on or off?

"System Select" I have on automatic; good?

"Access Points" screen opens to APN's which I haven't touched because I have no idea what that does...any help in there???

Having used my phone for a while now I can add that I occasionally will see several bars on the reception icon at the top and then it will just vanish and show no bars. Usually my reception would bounce up and down a bit but on this phone it seems to plunge or skyrocket sporadically.

At the office (where I have better reception) I will see very good signal strength around -73dBm 8asu at times and then at other times its -117dBm 1asu or worse. At home its almost always -110 or worse...

Any thoughts on anything I could try to change to improve things or am I just out of luck with a weaker radio in this phone verses my old Note 3?

Thanks

How is the screen on N6P compared to Note 5?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quitepossibly:
You might want to try turning off Enhanced 4G LTE Mode. The Enhanced 4G LTE mode turns on VoLTE. If you don't have good LTE coverage, then you won't be able to make calls reliably with VoLTE turned on.

What do you mean by "management tool for my network" . I mean I understand the sentence, but can you explain more? :)

I use CM as a Management tool because it allows me to do more things with less issues over stock

i run ubuntu 15.04 with the Kali Linux toolbox installed and as well as that its easier to use CM as i have modified my CM rom to not have anything except for the things i use

as for the stock rom i have removed any useless bloat apps and i have xposed installed with a few xposed addons to make using the device eaiser (i used a flashable zip to debloat which can be found in the cross development section)

for example i have no screenshot delay, mobile radio fix, youtube background play and a couple of other minor tweaks from xposed installed
