Except for, you know, the salesman is losing commission in that scenario. And, actually, in that scenario, that would be a pretty good idea to haggle the price down.

But, for real, that's an apples to oranges comparison. If anything, when it comes to roms, traditionally it is better to discuss different options and what those options feature, in order to find one that 1) most closely meets your needs and 2) discover features that may eventually be incorporated into this rom.

Again, this is a rom forum, and this rom is on hiatus. I seriously fail to see how discussing roms can be seen as inconsiderate. I'm not asking for an ETA nor am I complaining about the time it's taking for PN 8.0 to be developed. I understand that it's basically a complete rewrite, and I've read all of the posts about Nate's personal life and issues. I know that when it is released, it will be amazing and stable, as his previous work has been.

But to discourage rom talk on a thread that is on hiatus and does allow off topic conversation, especially when this rom in it's current released state is full version behind, just seems a little... overzealous?

Regulatory information?

Hi Guys, does anybody know how to access Regulatory Information while on PureNexus? I can't seem to find in Settings > System > About Phone.

How are you guys enabling doubletap2wake? I've tried Kernel Adiutor but the setting constantly gets disabled.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
I'm using EX Kernel Manager and it's been sticking for some time now.

Nova Launcher has several DT2W options as well.

[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ghisy:
I'm using the ElementalX kernel and always enable it through the aroma installer. I also use the root mode of Nova Launcher for double tap to sleep.

So, who ordered a Pixel 2 XL here? Did you see Google's reply regarding the screen issues? I'm not convinced and feel like they're making excuses...
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Lawlrus:
I've seen multiple videos of people that reciveed them, and its not ad bad as people make it out to be. If the blue tint annoys you , and you like to look at your phone at a ridiculously stupid angle, you need to re evaluate your life.

All oled screens get burn in, and using ONE specific color of a background shows it, oh noes! If I checked my 6p I'm sure it has some burn in, ALL devices do that use oled.

The people making a stink about it are haters, people that want it to fail because its not a nexus anymore, or people that can't afford it/mommy and daddy won't buy them one, so they are looking for any reason to ***** about the device because of its price.

That's what this all comes down to, if its $900 is should be perfect! No phone is. If its $900 it should do this and that!! If it doesn't, don't get it.

Google partners with ubreakitifix it to have OEM parts to fix devices under protection so you don't have to RMA it, they are giving the device three years of updates, they are also giving the device two full years support versus one for the unit. They aren't offering enough? They are making excuses? For what? Kids that have too much time on their hands to nit pick stupid reasons to complain? LUL
[Nexus 6P Android Development] falseman:
I dont totally agree with you.

You said it yourself that all oled panels has some burn ins. so its a common problem, why not try to solve it like some companies do for example by shifting a led every so and then.

Its normal people not expecting a blue screen. cuz a lot of other smartphones showed their oled panels which didnt have it.

there is no perfect product but there are stable products. as in everything you give works properly.

cant be mad about the jack because it aint there anymore. so people will buy another phone which has it.

but if i buy a pixel 2 xl and it already starts to have minor problems, which may not effect you in the beginning at all, cant guess what will happen in the next few months.

what is the positive side of having support if it already comes with a problem?

its up to people hate anything they want. but i guess if the whole community talks about the same subject there may be an issue.

What im trying to say. you have no reason to tell anyone to reevaluate his/her life or to call someone a hater just because they expect a stable product.

There is not even a reason to comment about something like this. because we like tech and we will always search for problems so it can be fixed thats always been like that.

You also have to consider that googles aint no company with a few engineers.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] matique:
I have the pixel 2 xl in hand. Honestly don't know what people are blabbering on about. The screen looks fantastic. It isn't as saturated as Samsung panels but the calibration is very neutral. The same photo on my P2xl looks 90% the similar on my color calibrated monitor.

Once devs get around to unlocking the full color profile on the screen, I'm sure it'll look better. But for now it isn't bad. The blue shirt is only slightly worse than the nexus 6p. Go on, tilt your 6p display and you'll also see a blue shift.

The camera is a dream and the battery life is really good, averaging 5 hours sot for the past three days with heavy use.

Feel free to have an opinion, that and if you agree with how i feel about it matters not.

---------- Post added at 10:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 AM ----------

Exactly this. People that have the device ive talked to, its a glorious unit.

Go on the interwebz and OMGAWDZ THE SKY IS FALLING GOOGLE FAILED US ALL

I personally cant wait to get mine.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
The desaturation of the screen is one thing that bothers me. I am use to bright vibrant colors. What if the reason for the desaturation is LGs epic fail on making OLEDs for phones? So they desaturate it to go longer without burn-in? I did not see any burn-in on my 14 month old 6P.

As for "haters" these are magazine reviews and hands on videos by people that actually purchased the phone that I am seeing, not rumors from people that can't afford the phone.

I know a person tabulating the complaints for Google and they state that banding, grain and burn-in are not affecting all the phones and may be a batch related issue....perhaps Verizon? Since they got the phones first?

And people I have seen posted say it is a "glorious unit" and screen issues don't bother them that much....meaning there is truth to the reports. If I am paying $1000 for a phone it should have a display that knocks my socks off...that is the main means of using a smartphone!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Ghisy:
Chill dude! I'm just questioning Google's official reply: it may be true or it may be bogus, we'll never know!

I don't mind the blue tint that much but as for the RMA part, I'm in Europe in a country where the P2XL isn't sold. And no UbreakitIfixit here either. So unfortunately, I can't take the risk of ordering a US or Euro unit and playing the russian roulette... And believe me, I WANT this phone to succeed but Google isn't making it easy for the general audience.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] madmuthertrucker:
This happens every year. Google phones aren't for everyone. Samsung makes the best phone. But I hate TouchWiz & locked bootloaders. Proprietary and redundant software too. Love their screens and cameras though. It's a trade off. Google gives you a bit more freedom. Don't fret just pick one, try both. Switch back and forth.

The 6P has been out for 2 years now. It's going to slow down in here real quick. So I'm happy to talk about anything. What's new? Pixel 2!

[Nexus 6P Android Development] E30Nova:
Um, no it doesn't.

I've tilted my 6P in every direction possible and even at close to 180°, I get no blue tint in any direction.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] ohlin5:
My 6P absolutely without question turns cooler when tilted to the side. It's not a ridiculous amount, but it is easily noticable. Everyone's display is slightly different and everyone has slightly different sensitivity to said effects...either way good to hear that the display in at least some of these 2XL's isn't as ****ty as some would lead everyone to believe!
[Nexus 6P Android Development] mikexda:
Just joined the warranty replacement club. Getting a Pixel xl In a couple days. Will rock that for a while until the development on the 2xl kicks in. Then I will trade it in for that.

Thank you Beans! It's been a fun ride! I hope to see you on the Pixel 2 board soon.

Met a lot of good people here, I know lots are jumping over also, terrific! I enjoy the comrade. We all have these stupid devices in common.

Got a lot of reading to do to figure out this new phone, apparently nothing like I'm used to. Will get it done.

Thanks Beanstown for all that you do ?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
* * * TIME OUT * * *

Let's get a few FACTS straight here.

1) Forum rules ALLOW for some off-topic if the OP allows it. Nate does.

2) I'm on my third device with Nate, and while his product is very good, the atmosphere he allows in his threads is very community oriented (Pure Nexus community that it) and is a HUGE reason people buy the device he's getting AND are loyal to his Roms.

3) The vast majority of the OT chatter lately is about the 2 XL, the next device the Nate is getting (self proclaimed) and will be cooking up goodies on. MANY of us here either have already purchased, or will be getting this device and following Nate, so it's not that far off topic in the end.

4) The regulars in this thread are usually good at ending the OT chatter once a build drops, and they take care of business helping users, reporting bugs, and doing what dev threads are all about.

5) I'm grateful Xda has allowed some of the changes it has over the last few years. When I got here in 2012, many questions I asked (not in Nate's threads) were met with hostility, and condescension.

Now, especially as a Moderator, we encourage users to be more helpful than hurtful, more kind than critical, and more respectful than repugnant. I see that as a major advantage and one reason why Xda has grown to 8 Million + members. Xda is not perfect, and there could be an argument made that Xda should be more like a laboratory than a community, but that's for the admins to decide; I think they've found a good balance between the two.

6) rather than add to the "off-topic clutter" in a dev thread, those who disagree with the way a thread is run, should simply unsubscribe from that thread and/or find a dev / thread that appeals to their taste.

7) Let's be respectful to all here. If we don't like it here, we are absolutely free to leave. Posting a dozen comments arguing about how the off-topic here is useless, is completely counter-productive to the point you're making.

8) publicly calling others out, and using phrases like "supposed" just shows poor character, it's no wonder people who think like this don't get PN threads.

9) I get that it's tough to wait for a new build, and wonder if the device will no longer be updated, and all the other things that are a normal progression in Xda, let's not take it out on each other.

Thanks to all those who have maintained your composure while anxiously waiting for Nate to drop a new build. The Pure Nexus community is awesome.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
In light of the recent deluge of PMs suddenly being sent en masse, I wanted to make sure everyone understands that Forum Rules apply to PMs as well as threads.

If you get PMs you feel violate the rules, simply FORWARD that PM to the Moderators for your device (click Moderators here).

Remember, while using Xda (PM included) be respectful, helpful and kind.

Save all the nasty stuff for FaceBook, Twitter, and Instagram :p
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
Thread cleaned!

Need I point out that it was the very OP and developer of this thread that mentioned which new device he ordered?

Again, this is Beanstown106's thread, only he has a say in how his community and thread is run

Community spirit and sharing is what keeps us all here and patiently waiting for updates

If no OT was allowed this thread would be buried 3 pages back now

So everyone take a chill pill and a time out.

Thank you all for contributing to XDA-DEVELOPERS.com
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Selenia:
Can we get back on topic because I actually have a question about this custom ROM for the 6P and not looking to buy a Pixel yet? I got an update notification for Oreo. Is that an auto update for Pure Nexus? Or is it trying to stuff me with the stock ROM?
[Nexus 6P Android Development] KennyG123:
The update notification (which you could use as parameters in Search this thread) is from Google and your carrier. It states the official stock update to Oreo is available. You would need to return to stock to update. Other option is to long press the notification and choose block all notifications from this app as I and many others did.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] reference2myself:
How did u get your replacement? My battery shuts off randomly around 35-40% and I've called twice and they just send me an email about how to prevent fast battery drain.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] T4rd:
I got a notification to update to Oreo this morning, hah.

Shouldn't OTAs be blocked on this ROM? Though tapping it just closes the notification shade and nothing else. Just thought it was funny/odd.

Edit: I see the above post about this now, I somehow missed it while skimming the thread before I posted this.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Nytrikx:
Same here
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
PM me and I'll walk you through the process I took to get mine replaced.

Mine was out of warranty Dec 2016 and I got it replaced in August 2017.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Vaseag:
I got same notification .
[Nexus 6P Android Development] T4rd:
Did you get it replaced with a Pixel XL? I saw Google doing that a month or two ago, but thought they have since stopped sending people Pixel XLs as a replacement.

I just replaced the battery in my 6P myself for $10 and 45 mins of my time. It wasn't too hard to do and I didn't want to risk getting another refurb that still had an old battery with who knows how much wear on it. It's nice to be back to 4-5 hours SoT again, but I would have prolly RMA'd it if I knew I could get a Pixel XL out of it, if just to sell that towards a Pixel 2 XL.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Az Biker:
No, I received a remanufactured identical 6P (August 17) with a 1 year warranty.

I wasn't about to complain since I was waaaay out of warranty. (ended Dec 2016)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] RED ZMAN:
1. Calling moderators stupid just gets you moderated more.

2. There is no 3 in this list.

4. Why would you close a forum because one thread in it is off topic?

You should familiarize yourself with the thread some, as OT is allowed here.

It's not really OT though, the 2Xl is basically the Nexus 6P2. Beans is going to be supporting it as he just bought one, and there is no thread there for him yet.

And on that note. I'll be hanging around in here too, but the 6P was officially replaced by the XL 2 yesterday. A really fantastic phone, replaced by another really fantastic phone. I can't believe it is efficient enough to charge while I'm using Android Auto playing music and navigating in Waze. I used to drop 20% in one trip, and now I'm gaining 4%.

Nuts.

See ya folks in the funny pages.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] AzraelsKiss:
Yeah... And they deleted my post about how complaining about OT is OT... Those meanie heads... :(

Have a good one!

(Oops... Another OT post...)
[Nexus 6P Android Development] psychotropicfx:
Only posting this as an FYI to those that are interested.

After a solid run with my 6p on PN (thank you beans!), I received my 2XL today with crossed fingers. Despite the talk about the display, I kept my preorder so that I could see it for myself. These pictures were taken with a relatively old Canon PowerShot, so they aren't the best, but represent what I'm seeing in person (sitting next to my 6p for comparison).

I haven't decided just how much the blue shift bothers me, but it definitely does. I frequently use my phone in low light conditions and at angles up to ~30 degrees (the shift occurs at minimal angles), so the issue will affect me daily. Still deciding whether I'm keeping it or not, but I thought I'd share my experience for anyone considering the switch to follow beans.

P.S. - I have zero other complaints about the 2 XL.

Yes, people are getting the notification. You can disable the notification if it's bothersome.

I put up a detailed post about how to get rid of it and not lose any other notifications in the process a month or more ago.

How old is your device? Mine is now 16 months and I installed Accubattery today and got caught by surprise (though I should't be) as it shows 2646mAh. Will give it few more charging sessions though to confirm the results before I take any actions.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] TrancerSte:
My 6P was down to less than 60% design capacity by 18 months! It would power off still showing anywhere from 15-25% remaining. In July I took it to the Huawei service centre for a replacement OEM battery (was only like $40 with labour) and it's like a brand new phone. Now I'm trying not to ever fully charge it - I charge it to about 85%-90% before I sleep, unplug it and put it on flight mode and it doesn't drain more than 1-2% overnight. So far so good - 3½ months later it's still showing 99% / 3409mAH.
[Nexus 6P Android Development] Motokorth:
I will have to give accubattery a try. I replaced the battery but I am not sure how good quality the replacement is. Worst case i order another one online, it is cheap enough.

I ran into some good luck when I was fixing my 6p. I dropped it and screwed up the back and front frame, the new front frame they sent had a new lcd and screen attached instead of only the mounting frame. Their parts picker made a big mistake on their end but I am enjoying my luck.
