I got one yesterday and love it. Easy to unlock the bootloader and rooting. Using wufresh toolkit is foolproof. Now to decided if I should make a ROM or just use what's out there which is plenty. No regrets at all. And this device always getting updates. Good luck.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaspreet84:
Its a super phone! Once you get hooked to the display, you won't like any thing smaller. Fluid as water, looks gorgeous, gets latest from Google, i already have 6.0.1 running on it! Numerous custom roms, best of community support!

I got one from Amazon's black friday deal. Had an HTC one m9 beforry but the N6 serves my purposes better.

Yea it's a little large and needs some time to get use to the size, but it's a great phone. Very smooth and no lag at all. You won't be disappointed.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monkor:
It's a solid device. If you open up a lot of apps, it's better than any phone I've used at keeping them in system memory.

The camera isn't good without ideal light, and the vibration motor is the worst since my Moto Cliq. But you can root away one, the other not so much

i love mine, its fast, its big..handy if your eyes are getting a bit older. Easy to root, unlock. Now if i only knew how to make roms i would be very happy.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] istperson:
Well, with a lot of patience, I can assure you :D

For starters, build a basic AOSP rom, then take your time to map out how what works, and take baby steps.

So far the only thing I've changed was:

- Dismiss all button for recents

- Fix menu button on the navigation bar, now it has four buttons equally distributed

- UI tuner is always on, and can't be turned off (but I left the spinning gear in, it's cool)

- Settings displays my version

- You can access the Clock app tapping any time or date field on the status bar, and not just the next alarm

- And more fixes, like making Battery saving location not soft rebooting on AOSP

- And the most significant change that the white "android" boot animation (the one you see if sou don't have a botanimation.zip) is replaced by a cyan colored "cyosp" one (you can see in my signature)

I'm also thinking of purchasing this phone very soon. Few questions as well:

The phone is already a year old. Is this phone good if I'm thinking of using it for at least 18mo?

That display/brightness...I've heard its really dim (270 nits, really?), and damn near unreadable outdoors. Just overexhaggerating here on reviewers' part? As a reference, I'm coming from an LG G3.

Thanks!

so i have been trying to use Unicon with an icon pack, specifically stealth - icon pack and it kind worked, maybe 5 icons changed. Am i doing something wrong or is it not updated for marshmallow?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnterLordVader:
Unicon has lots of problems since Google updated the launcher, Use the latest Unicon Beta and wipe the launcher's data after you apply an icon pack using Unicon, then all the icons will apply.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shbm111:
Although my Nexus 5 is rooted with the toolkit I haven't done anything to it in months (no custom roms or anything)

My phone was working last night but when I woke up and it was in a bootloop.

so i tried fixing the problem myself, here are the things I tried:

- Hitting it (in case the buttons were sticky)

- Flash stock + unroot on the n5 toolkit

- Bootloader>Recovery>Wipe Data/Factory Reset

After that, the boot loop stopped and whenever I try turning it on it goes straight to the bootloader.

So I tried going into the wugfresh advanced utilities and i tried:

- Fastboot Erase*

- Fastboot format*

*flash stock + unroot after both

I have a little bit of hope because I can access the bootloader but I have no idea what else I can try.

Any suggestions?

thank you in advance
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Does the bootloader remain unlocked?

Try manually flashing the latest marshmallow. After flashing, boot back into fastboot and run these commands:

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img (the userdata.img file can be extracted from the stock ROM for flashing in fastboot)

After running the 2 commands, boot back into recovery and perform a full wipe of data and cache, then reboot.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] macklobell:
I just bought a z5 compact and thought the problem was with my z3 compact but the same issue occurs. When I am watching live streaming horse racing video on twinspires using either mx player or sony's movie app the video is chopped up. Is there a fix for this? My friend has an iPhone 6 and doesn't have the same issue.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxxjake999xxx:
I want to give some context.

I have owned my Z1 since release on a contract. I have previously had the screen replaced twice and it worked fine afterwards.

However, I had dropped the phone resulting in the top of the screen cracking. Got it replaced by a local phone repair shop.

The result was a new phone screen, a white edge just over half way down the screen might be worth noting. The repair man said it was a warranty sticker on the screen they put in. (Sounds silly)

Anyway, the resultant problem is not exactly like what i've seen on many threads.

My phone now decides to press itself erratically. Usually after swiping and trying to press delete on the keyboard would it start acting up.

My remedy: Hard reset(Didn't work), factory reset(didn't work), upgrade from 4.4 to 5.1(I think, newest software) and to my surprise the issue remains. So after the repair man replacing the screen twice and ensuring that i'd done my best with little to no phone knowledge, I still have this problem.

There's many threads detailing problems, some linking to apk's that are "calibration software", some that say you can change calibration.ini but no helpful replies or expanding info on the threads.

Can anyone tell me if they've had any luck with this or anyone who has knowledge of what I should do next (E.g "there's no fix guy, you'll have to sell it and move on") as i'm starting to assume these screens are very tedious to deal with

Checking in a couple months later... I'm using the s7 Darklord rom now.. n900w8: Same deal - video completely doesn't work. Both cameras. nothing works. Pictures are fine - but some of the stock modes (that needed flashing - the fix hosted on samsungvn.vom page) don't work either. I can't find any radios for our phone anywhere. It seems we were officially updated to 5.0 but I'm guessing that didn't use the radios needed to make the video recording in a MM Rom work. I dunno. I'm guessing.

Frustrating.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DominicBridge:
Hey Guys,

I kinda semi-followed a tutorial which basically got me to download a rom from chainfire, load it up in Odin and jobs a good 'un. Whilst that was successful, I didn't read too much more in to it (not rooted since s3 and it seemed to be that simple back then!).

Now I'm using a Galaxy S6 UK on o2, it was previously on 5.1.1. G920F

When I load up the phone its stuck on the s6 screen and says "recovery is not seandroid enforcing"

I can still access recovery mode through odin, but I can't seem to find files that will actually work for my phone.

Am I completely boned or am I panicking too much at 2am in the morning?

Cheers guys(&gals)!

Edit: fixed, I download a file called G920FXXS3COK5_G920FOXA3COK5_G920FXXS3COK5_HOME.tar.md5, restored it with Odin and was all good, only a 9 hour download!

What does odexed or de-odexed mean?
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] agriculture:
ODEX file

In Android file system, applications come in packages with the extension .apk. These application packages, or APKs contain certain .odex files whose supposed function is to save space. These ‘odex’ files are actually collections of parts of an application that are optimized before booting. Doing so speeds up the boot process, as it preloads part of an application. On the other hand, it also makes hacking those applications difficult because a part of the coding has already been extracted to another location before execution.

DEODEX file

Deodexing is basically repackaging of these APKs in a certain way, such that they are reassembled into classes.dex files. By doing that, all pieces of an application package are put together back in one place, thus eliminating the worry of a modified APK conflicting with some separate odexed parts.

So, Deodexed ROMs (or APKs) have all their application packages put back together in one place, allowing for easy modification such as theming. Since no pieces of code are coming from any external location, custom ROMs or APKs are always deodexed to ensure integrity....
[Xiaomi Redmi 1S] SILF0X:
This app only works for rom deployed in Dalvik bytecode. Unfortunately, since Lolipop, the default runtime is ART.

Simply, odexing doesnt work in marshmallow.

Hi Xda,

I have a fake Lenovo S960c (didn't knew before i purchased it) , after i rooted it with kingo user, because there was a malware which was located only by rooting . the malware was removed , but after few months the same type of malware came again but this time there was two or three malware which was causing my battery to drain and i couldn't charge my phone battery to 100% .

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Qiangong2:
Most likely, the malware was caused by a required system app. Maybe the dialer, MMS, or search app? Whenever the app sweeps your phone to check and sees there is no malware app, it connects to a server and, unbeknownst to you, installs it as a system app.

Do you know the actual manufacturer? In antutu it would show Zen, Alps, Wen, Next, or another OEM name. If so, that helps a lot in recovering your OEM mtk phone.

Your phone is recognized by mtk droid tools right? If so, you should be able to go into recovery as well. Even make cwm which should help
