I'm not complaining, but unfortunately my battery life seems to be the same. But I did use my phone for a lot of the day today. So if the battery improvement has something to do with idle battery, I wouldn't have been able to see results yet.
[Nexus 6P General] WizeGuyDezignz:
Just like car companies can't wait to release their new year model cars, like Nike can't wait to release their new Jordan's and other shoe models, like Microsoft can't wait to release their new version of Windows, like Beats can't wait to release their new version of headphones, like Starbucks can't wait to release their new Frappuccino, like Apple can't wait to release their new iPad, like drug companies can't wait to release their new drug, like Bose can't wait to release their new version of speakers, like Google can't wait to release their new version of Android... Shall I go on?

It's called business. It happens at every company. If we don't like it, we need to stop buying those products. But we won't and they know it.

Nexus

The big difference here is if you buy a Nexus you are NOT left behind like just about every Samsung model.

You will get the updates and get them quickly. Thats a company that stands behind what they sell. Same can be said for

gulp..... Apple. They also update all phones, even older models in a timely manner. Samsung is atrocious at this.

After I sold my S6 I vowed not to get sucked into that vortex again. The S7 battery life sucks big time. The Edge version

is really the only option to be decent with battery but then you have to contend with the letters scrolling into the Edge

making it hard to read. I had a S6 Edge and replaced with the S6 because of this reason. Then sold the S6 because

of complete neglect of Samsung to fix bugs in a timely manner and the battery life really sucked.

Not impressed, man

This is what I was able to get on my Note 4, which had a smaller battery.

Got my OTA just now. Finished installing.

100% Stock, locked bootloader.
[Nexus 6P General] rsage:
Just got the OTA, one thing I noticed is that stocks I have set up to follow in Google Now all got deleted, and when I add them back they disappear...

Not sure if that's an update problem or a Google Now problem...
[Nexus 6P General] spc_hicks09:
You can. Go flash the factory image.
[Nexus 6P General] akamanonthemoon:
Excited to see most are happy with the update as I await my first Nexus device in the 6P!
[Nexus 6P General] gregk232:
I have noticed right from the start... Auto rotation of the home screen is much faster.

Before this update, if auto rotation was enabled in the stock launcher, it would lag when you unlock the phone with the fingerprint sensor. That lag is now gone.
[Nexus 6P General] JoshuaMh:
Loving this update so far.
[Nexus 6P General] Towerdragon:
The Ota just pushed to my device today ready to test it out
[Nexus 6P General] farfromovin:
Welcome to the club, it's a nice device. The only thing I envy of the Samsung devices is the bright vibrant displays. Not that the 6p display is a slouch, but the new Sammy displays are BRIGHT!
[Nexus 6P General] aniketkuber:
I m not sure but I feel battery life for me has gone down a notch for me after this update. I have always felt nexus 6p drains more than usual battery connected to wifi and I am always connected to wifi. What do you guys think?
[Nexus 6P General] tsuttie99:
Backing up my device right now to transition from the Feb1 build of Chroma to latest stock with root. I am excited to hear people say LTE issues are resolved. That's been a thorn in my side since 6.0.1's first build. Also my battery life on chroma leaves some to be desired. on a heavy work day i will get my phone down to 15% by 5:30. So I will report back any improvements on latest stock build.
[Nexus 6P General] rcurtis805:
This was my first Nexus device too, the 6p. Figured I get the biggest, baddest model of Nexus device to date. So got the 128gb 6p. Lol. I seriously doubt you'll be disappointed...I came from a note 4, and this 6p blows that phone out of the water!! In almost every instance, besides the MP on the camera, but the 6p does take really good quality photos. I'd advice to do your updates as soon as you get it, even update to the mhc19I build ASAP. It fixes a lot of bugs. You'll have to unlock the bootloader if the OTA for this build isn't available yet. There are posts that you can download the individual image files to flash. Make sure to follow the directions to a T, to avoid issues after the flashing. Might as well root the device and add TWRP while you're unlocking the bootloader...you'll have more options you can do with the device with it being unlocked and rooted. Trust me...make sure to get a good case for your 6p also, there's a lot of complaints of it bending...I have a supcase on it from the get go, so I haven't had these issues, but others have. Just passing you along some helpful advice before you get your 6p in your hands. But yeah, you'll love the 6p, it's an incredible device!!

---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------

Oh also, I've flashed a few custom Roms on the 6p, and I've found the stock ROM has given me the best performance and battery life. Weird as it sounds, but the custom Roms haven't done the greatest for me, and others have found the same results. If I were you, Id unlock the bootloader, add TWRP recovery, update to the mhc19I build manually, root the device, then add your apps and such and have fun. That's what I've done, and it's fantastic.
[Nexus 6P General] warri:
Should I be worried that my Completely Stock Nexus 6P (I rolled back to stock to use Android Pay) still has not gotten an update notification? Still running MMB29Q, and System Updates Says I'm up to Date.
[Nexus 6P General] matteventu:
I have noticed the same... Now with the last update I do 4:30/5h of SOT instead of the 5/5:30 I've done before. Of course with exactly the same configuration (apps in background etc) and use.

I think it could be related to the increase of the minimum frequency from 100MHz to 300MHz (or something similar, I don't remember all now, anyway see Francisco Franco's G+ profile).
[Nexus 6P General] nycebo:
I still have the LTE / H+ issues on T-mobile as well. Such a hassle.
[Nexus 6P General] gregk232:
So, Car Home Ultra battery widget shows your CPU temp. Mine used to never get below 80 degrees. This is my temp after the update. It was actually in the 60s not too long before I took this screenshot!
[Nexus 6P General] treIII:
I wonder if those of you with reception problems actually have a hardware problem meaning the antenna.
[Nexus 6P General] asylumxl:
I'm still yet to receive this update OTA. Quite disappointed as i received previous updates promptly.
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
Lol speak for yourself, that's is why many of us are conscious of the things we buy because we are tired of the BS that companies are pumping out every year. Many people will buy it but that isn't the point we are making here lol. If your happy with buying the s7 and upgrading to the new sX model when it comes out then you're set, for many, that isn't a viable option or even a good one.

Potentially, DespairFactor reverted this commit as it ran into issues and my device has been running much better since.
[Nexus 6P General] DrFeelgood246:
Actually I feel like my battery life has gotten worse with this update. Could something be wrong with my phone?
[Nexus 6P General] and313:
Like i said. The 6p is good. The new mhc19l update made the battery a bit better (i think) and also bluetooth is finally fixed. Really like this phone.
[Nexus 6P General] crazymook:
Gonna give it a few days before I decide if the update has hurt my battery or not. I find myself picking up the phone more b/c its so much more responsive (well not SO much more, but it definitely is).
[Nexus 6P General] tfly212:
If you are willing to unlock your bootloader and flash a kernel you can fix it...Elemental kernel's sound mods make a huge difference
[Nexus 6P General] BigDRim:
Wifi with SIM authenfication isn't working anymore for me with this update.
[Nexus 6P General] asylumxl:
Finally got the update! Will see how it goes.
[Nexus 6P General] pemz82:
One of the best improvements is the reduced pink hue when reducing brightness right down low.
[Nexus 6P General] Crazypinoy9:
this update has been great for me. improved the overall experience. especially in terms of speed. much smoother and haven't had any lag whatsoever.
[Nexus 6P General] matteventu:
What is that?
[Nexus 6P General] nycebo:
Dude, I hate to rain on my own complaint parade, but I decided to reboot twice and have now NOT seen it drop into H+. My fingers are crossed that this is resolved but I'll report back if not.
[Nexus 6P General] crazymook:
Its almost kind of crazy how much more fluid this phone is since the update.
[Nexus 6P General] GuiCunha:
My device got worst with this update. I will try a clean install...
[Nexus 6P General] ant987:
Same here! The phone feels faster and smoother indeed, but it overheats just by doing nothing. For example I'm just chatting on whatsapp and it gets hot, I open the browser and gets hot... Also the battery is going down like crazy. I've already factory resetted it, but nothing. The only option is to downgrade and see if the problem goes away :(
[Nexus 6P General] cygnus56:
I think that temperatures sometimes rises a bit, is not it more than before with this build, it's just like before.

Some users may share their temperature history in a cycle battery?

just to compare.

sometimes when I put it to charge battery reaches 40 ° C, and starts down there.

It is normal?
[Nexus 6P General] FormeriPhoney:
You guys are getting me excited about the battery life. I ended up returning my S7 EDGE today bc it's not worth $825. I picked up a Nexus 6p 64gb for $474 + $50 gift card to B&H yesterday. Saved myself almost $400.
[Nexus 6P General] Zaphon:
I've noticed that BT is better now, however I also have noticed more problems with LTE than I was having before. The last 2 days I've been out and about and hit several times where my LTE seems completely dead (or nearly dead, speed so slow it's ridiculous).. And I'm sitting there next to my wife on her iPhone who is having no problems. Going to Airplane Mode for 10 seconds and coming back fixes it most times (sometimes it took a few tries). No clue what's going on, but it's really getting annoying.

However, I do want to point out I'm not getting the HSPA or EDGE fallback anymore either. It definitely is going to LTE now, but just ends up being unusable. I'm using the default APN's at the moment. I haven't tried adding a custom all in one APN. This is T-Mobile BTW..
[Nexus 6P General] Bwyan Benton:
It's very easy to fix volume in headphone if your willing to root.

Use file explorer, click on ETC folder, look for a file called mixer_paths.XML open that in text editor, near the top you will see these two lines

<ctl name="RX1 Digital Volume" value="84" />

<ctl name="RX2 Digital Volume" value="84" />

Change the 84 on both lines to 99. Save and reboot. Enjoy much louder headphone volumes.
[Nexus 6P General] rajendra82:
OTA URL is available. Dowload the zip, boot into recovery, and update via ADB sideload. That's what I do every month..

No need for that. OTA URL FTW.
[Nexus 6P General] cygnus56:
They seem to these temperatures? I did a completely clean install with the factory image (MHC19I), are not high, but I compared to s6 and does not exceed 35 ° C with the same use, In this case never exceeds 40 ° c.

It seems to be solved for me. My wife no longer complain about soft and distant voice when I call her on loudspeaker.
[Nexus 6P General] orcsbane13:
Wow, thank you. Big difference.
[Nexus 6P General] ant987:
Well in my case it rises more than it used to do. I tried downgrading to the previous build MMB29Q and it stays incredibly cool, plus battery lasts longer. And it's just stock, with no modifications or edits, same configuration I had on MHC19I. Sorry to say that, but MHC19I didn't make the phone perfect for me, it made it worse.
[Nexus 6P General] rsalas187:
Did you do a clean flash? the wipe will help.
[Nexus 6P General] @work:
Actually, and I'm not kidding here, I deleted the burger King app , after that my phone has been performing normally. 5hat app wasn't showing u0 in any wakelocks or even the standard battery screen, but removing it seems to have patched up my problems.

My first 2 days after the update, battery life was worse, considerably worse, doze didn't seem to be working. I simply rebooted, and the phone has been better than ever, doze is working great again.

[Nexus 6P General] mb88_peace:
Hey fellas.

Any safe way to force update to this build? I'm in the Middle East and my device is still stuck on MMB29P! When I check for updates, it says it's up to date.

I know that I can just flash the factory image, but my bootloader is locked and I don't have the time (& patience) to install all my apps again.

I'd appreciate any help.
[Nexus 6P General] ManMOuntain:
On installation, you select option for app synchronisation which will automatically reinstall your applications, patience not required.
[Nexus 6P General] mb88_peace:
I appreciate your response, but unfortunately Play Store is almost blocked in my country and we use other markets. So, this option is unavailable to us :(

It seems that I can use OTA zips for my problem, but I yet to find a tutorial in this regard.

I agree. This thing is amazing now! Like my guns, you couldn't pry this out of my cold dead hands!

This update has made this phone even better but my auto brightness has gone to sh** since I updated, seems to be adjusting constantly. Has anyone else noticed a difference?
[Nexus 6P General] jetshine:
I just bought a 6P, took advantage of the $75 price cut on Amazon. Really looking forward to it, after reading all the positive comments on this latest update. I'm coming from a Note 5, gave up on waiting for MM update... also haven't gotten any security updates since Nov. Looking forward to having a Nexus again, I really loved the Nexus 4 and 5.

Yes. My screen was usually set to about 2/3rds auto brightness in daylight. It's noticeably dimmer since the update.

If you upgrade to N through the Beta and then downgrade again (it will wipe your device) it will be on the latest update
[Nexus 6P General] FormeriPhoney:
What is the downgrade process?

I see the beta is just a sign up and ota
[Nexus 6P General] KnownDominance:
1. Enroll in beta

2. Do the OTA to upgrade

3. Unenroll in beta

4. (you will get another OTA which will downgrade you) Do that OTA

5. Downgrade to 6.0.1 and you will be on the latest march update
[Nexus 6P General] FormeriPhoney:
Well damn. That sound easy as F

Anything substantial negative about the N builds? Saw that it just pushed another update
[Nexus 6P General] KnownDominance:
On my device it seemed to drop frames and the notifications were a bit buggy sometimes. In the multitasking view the scrolling is atrocious. Other than that, battery was okay, but not as good as the march update, with which I got 5.5 hours SOT
[Nexus 6P General] SlimSnoopOS:
Just install ADB, unlock your bootloader, and fastboot the OTA (or Android N) in the time it takes to do all of these steps. Very detailed steps outlined in the thread below

[Nexus 6P General] brewkelyn:
I too continue to have LTE issues. No problem connecting on boot up and maintaining signal for awhile but once it drops meaning no signal, no bars, no data, it'll go into a loop of connecting and disconnecting. Beyond frustrating.

At that point, I concede and switch to 3g and it'll maintain data no problem for me. I would love to know if this is a hardware issue and if can be resolved! Otherwise, fantastic device. I'm with T-mo, running latest Pure Nexus, bootloader & radio.
[Nexus 6P General] matteventu:
To sideload the OTA zip through ADB you don't need to unlock the bootloader ;)

I have the phone since a week. It come with MMB29P, and everything work perfect like 5 hours ost I saw this post and flash the ota and my battery goes worst. Like 2 hrs ost. Factory reset.. The same.. Restart phone the same.. Enroll the device. And with Android n it goes better.. I unrolled and get the ota and the same thing. What's what I'm doing wrong? I flash back to MMB29P and have a better ost and no random restarts.

Got the phone 2 weeks ago, flashed MHC19I immediately and have been running with supersu 2.68, xposed, gravitybox & xposed gel. Overall everything has been great, I have noticed a few minor issues: OK Google voice activation sometimes stops working (probably due to xposed gel), occasional wifi disconnects and photos app does not scroll or zoom in/out well. No random bent screen either.
[Nexus 6P General] Kushdawg:
Maybe its just mine but my s7 egde doesnt even last a day for me no heavy gaming. it does charge fast though
[Nexus 6P General] ultyrunner:
When I first got my 6p, I had (sort of) vowed to stay stock. However, as those of us who flash are wont to do, eventually my desire for this or that feature had me flashing away. I used Cataclysm with stock because it had all the features I wanted. Not wanting to stick with a mod that isn't under development, I eventually moved on and in the past few months have tested AOSiP, Chroma, DU and just the other day, Exodus. All good, but in many cases adding too many features where I don't really need them. I'd updated to the "I" vendor, BL and radio but still kept playing with custom ROMs.

Finally decided to go completely stock a couple days ago. Kept my unlocked BL and fastboot flashed all the "I" partitions. Since I like having data backups that work and a full system backup to be safe, I decided the only variations from stock would be a custom recovery and root. Even some of the custom ROMs updating to the most recent Google/AOSP sources still have issues.

I gotta say, for the most part, stock is really good now. As others have said, for me, bluetooth, LTE and other connectivity issues are rock solid. Once system animations are dropped to .5 across the board, the device is really snappy. I would say stock battery is OK, but not really phenominal, so I kept the stock kernel but installed EXKM to load better interactive governor profiles. The only other system mod I made was actually to install V4A, as stock Android sound still leaves something to be desired.

While I miss the ability to tweak the quick panel setting tiles, I'm really finding (almost) stock to be great. I'm hoping I'll just stay with this and fastboot flash the img changes with Googles' monthly updates.
[Nexus 6P General] d08speed3:
I loaded stock MHC build. Booted fine. Then I flashed the latest EX Kernel and upon boot of get FC constantly on NFC. Ideas?
[Nexus 6P General] ultyrunner:
Dunno, I never did experience issues when I flashed the kernel. Right now, all I'm doing is managing interactive profiles and tweaking a couple other settings on the stock kernel. I'm seeing quite good performance after a couple days of this.
[Nexus 6P General] TheIgster:
Hmmm...Not sure the phone is perfect by any means. I have this latest build, completely stock and not rooted. The phone is pretty smooth but some issues I find:

Bluetooth stutters on occasion during music playback

Battery life is OK...not great. For the size of the battery, it should be better IMO

At full volume, some built in notification tones (so not ones I have added) distort through the front facing speakers

Overall, I'm pretty happy with this phone, but it's not "perfect" by any stretch of the imagination.

Prior to the 6P I had a Huawei Ascend Mate 2 which did not have any of these issues. A much older phone running LP, but Bluetooth was great, battery life amazing and no distortion from notifications.
[Nexus 6P General] WizeGuyDezignz:
Wow, people like you exist on this forum? You will most likely get backlash for your post, but it's refreshing to see a realistic view on this phone once in a while.
