Actually the camera on this phone is very good and not just average.

http://www.dxomark.com/Mobiles/Google-Nexus-6P-review-Serious-contender-for-mobile-photography

Very satisfied with this phone. Android pay works with root, speedy and very good battery life for me. I can use different carriers. No bend for me as that is usually from non average handling and I always use a case.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhaugru:
Overall as a total package it is the best Android phone I have used. The battery life is a bit disappointing as I was expecting iPhone 6S Plus type battery but I'm still overall very pleased.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @work:
It's a very good phone IMHO, but with the bending issue, noise on the headphone jack and no Android pay with Xposed I feel pretty dumb for buying this instead of a oneplus 2. I have a oneplus one and that phone is solid. I skipped the op2 because of nfc and now I have a bent 6p and still no Android pay. Might not be such a big deal but the 6p costs so much more for similar specs.

Yeah the 6p has a "better" display, but I can't really sus out a big difference unless I'm really looking for it. The camera is also a bit better(mostly in low light).
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zymphad:
Are you serious? 810 was the best SOC at the time from Qualcomm, nothing better. This is the newest Super AMOLED from Samsung. Uses larger pixels for camera, best in class for all situations which often are low light. This is so successful Samsung took note and reduced 16mp to 12mp for larger pixel and sensor. Only Moto X Pure has better speakers. Add that with the excellent battery and software, there is little doubt Nexus 6P was the best Android Phone of 2015. No other phone provided the full package. The fingerprint is icing on the cake, Google's imprint is the best fingerprint solution on any smartphone to date.

For custom roms, 6P is heaven. I used Purity in the past, not available for 6P, but I am using it anyway. Building roms for 6P for either CM/AOSP/OMNI based roms is an absolute breeze.

As for quality issues? No idea since I haven't seen any Nexus 6P in the wild that aren't in pristine condition and well perfect.

For those complaining about Android Pay and they rooted for Xposed? That is hilarious...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @work:
The Android pay issue is not the phones fault but it's worth noting that in my case I went into it after having used Google wallet for years with exposed on multiple devices. I didn't want the op2 because no nfc, little did I know that it wouldn't matter with Android pay since it locked down the ability to use with root.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WizeGuyDezignz:
I'm not going to get into a war that neither side can win since it's our opinion... But in my opinion, they are insanely overrated, 6P included. I will just leave it at that.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
Actually it's underrated and keeps getting better with time & xda! :):cool::silly:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solutions Etcetera:
If your heavily invested in your mobile OS, and want everything to work, buy an iPhone.

If you prefer Android, and still want everything to work, Nexus is your best bet. Otherwise, you risk OEM skins breaking things (AA, Wear, etc.), and possibly never seeing a firmware upgrade that gets things right.

Glad your OPO worked perfectly for you; it did not for many.

This is of course just how I see things, but it is due to years of experience with my ear very close to the ground. (C;
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zymphad:
Yes we know, you spend all your time on XDA trying to stop folks from buying Nexus and buying a Galaxy phone. It's very clear from your post history you don't actually contribute anything to XDA other than negativity about the 6P.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rtistique:
Is the Nexus 6p Overrated? :rolleyes:....................A IPhone is Overrated. Honestly I would have to say NO, you cant even go to a carrier and pick one up yet. Here is my reason for a a Nexus device:

-Service

Supports CDMA, GSM and Voice over WI-FI, Great for me since I have Verizon and it also would make it easy for me to drop Verizon and go somewhere else without spend 700$+ on their new phone.

-Price to performance

For 499$-649$ now compare to the Samsung S7 edge 800-900$ and performing nearly the same and difference are in the 1-3 sec range (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smY4FOeVdvs)

-Pretty Great display

It's a Samsung AMOLED Display, only thing you don't get is a super bright mode for the outdoors.

-Great Camera

It not the best camera but it’s a great camera. It’s able to take great picture at night and during the day. 1080p and 4k recording is great when not moving. But I notice EIS work with 1080 but it disables somehow with 4k. I don't have a 4k display yet so I don't really use 4k feature. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMHeX8gGy3k)

- Metal build

I'm still wondering how in the world people are bending their phones. It seems like a lot of people watching YouTube these day a little too much. I guess I’m a lucky person who never had that issue. I loved the build but i do rock a case on it, the metal does make it feels like it worth its price.

-Finger print scanner

Best thing that could happen to a smartphone. but it need to be integrated in to more app other the android pay.

-Front facing speaker

Only one other phone that could come close to this level of sound quality is a HTC device with boom sound.

-Battery

This is one of the hardest subject because we all don't use our phones the same. More you play games and watch video faster your battery goes down. Usually on an 8 hour work I get to 83% with light (email, phone call, text message, Facebook). Come home and play games and watch YouTube for 4-5 hours and get to 20% -15%

-No bloatware (include carrier software)

-You know you are get a next Android Update

-Google provides a monthly security Update

-Most active developer community on the internet

-Knowing that you will be able to unlock your bootloader

-Having ROMs and Kernel
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Con1750:
It definitely isn't overrated, its extremely reasonably priced in comparison to hilarious outrageous prices charged by Samsung and Apple, its a premium phone without the premium price tag with the best software experience around on a mobile OS. Also the camera definitely isn't average.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyYan:
People around me think it's overrated (and way overpriced) too, but that's just because I'm in China where no one appreciates the simplicity and speed of AOSP-based Android. The camera is even better with the aid of apps like Camera FV-5 (e.g. macro), and finger scanning speed beats iPhones to it. They like the new MI 5 for instance, but they've never been able to get their hands on one :D

But yeah, I hate the looks the more I look at it. I don't want it to look like a Huawei phone, lest look like a Mate 7.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WizeGuyDezignz:
I spend all my time trying to stop people from buying this phone? Good job making up stories. I never once told someone not to buy it to my knowledge. I've given my opinion like you, but never flat out told someone not to buy it.

I have a right to my opinion that it's overrated. I've said this from the minute I became obsessed with Android phones years ago... People grossly overrate stock Android, hence Nexus phones as well.

For a small and quick example... The 6P is the first Nexus which doesn't have a downright embarrassing camera, yet people still said Nexus was the best. Camera is just one example. Let's not forget the laughable screens on the Nexus 4 and 5, and the color issues with the 6 and 6P.

Anyhow, glad you like your phone. You should if you're using it each day. Everyone has their own needs. I'm happy for you as much as you won't believe it lol. Remember, there is no wrong choice.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zymphad:
Your arguments don't make much sense since Nexus phones were introduced as what Google meant android to be and as a development platform for app developers and for those who contribute to the AOSP project.

Nexus phones were advertised as the best stock android experience and that is true, this is as google meant android to be. Obviously a lot of folks want the Samsung/LG/HTC etc experience. It is ludicrous to say that is overrated, no brand of phone does stock android better. Anyone buying a Nexus device should know what it is they are buying.

Nexus as a mainstream device only came about because a following developed for the stock experience. Camera would not have been high on the list, promoting Android, and helping some manufactures gain brand recognition and growth was. It wasn't until Nexus 5 Google saw Nexus as a brand to go head to head with Apple. Nexus 6 first attempt, and Google managing to provide this level of camera experience and overall feel at $450 one year later is amazing.

Despite the amazing hardware and refinements, I still see Nexus phones as the best way to introduce someone to android on a budget. It comes with great hardware, 810/806, good battery life, fingerprint, monthly security updates, an open platform to use device as you wish (rooting, development), and a great simple point and shoot camera for all lighting conditions. I do not see how that is overrated.

If one wanted the absolute best camera, materials, quality controlled and tested build, and the prestige or popularism, Nexus clearly not the phone. Best to look at an iPhone frankly...
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Juzman:
I had the LG G4 for 6 months, sold it and now am happily using a Nexus 6P. I missed my Nexus 5 and the "development" side of things, so going back to the Nexus family makes me happy.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontbeweakvato:
Nexus is perfect for a specific type of user.... The smart ones! Besides the 6p has better low light camera response than g4/v10, which was best from last year.

It's a highly customizable device. Doesn't compare to Samsung or lg in this department. IPhone isn't even on the same planet, its the opposite of customizing.

Also the 6p's 810 v2 has received over 120,000 antutu benchmarks consistently without getting hot or rapid battery loss.

Lastly it will be current for at least 3 to 4 years (maybe more) with a custom ROM.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loser.lon:
Haha sorry I was wrong when I said average camera. Better then average but maybe not up to s6 standard?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gd6noob:
Everyone has different uses for their phone. Some likes phones with better camera who doesnt watch videos or play games... Some enjoy playing games and dont really use the camera. Some like to listen audio or surf the web.. Some who are rich and just needs a phone.

There is no 1 phone that is the best for everything. If it existed, it woudnt be cheap.. Just look at the 2 biggest players, Apple and Samsung.. their phones still has flaws and cost much more then Nexus devices, even though the nexus devices over the past years are getting up there... This device is just as good as any Samsung or iPhone (of the same year) IMHO...

We can all argue until the cows come home about which is the best phone. One has to decide which features of a phone are best for you before you spend your hard-earned money when all is said and done. But then again, this is what makes these forums so much fun, eh?

[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] aliandre:
Hi.

How set Google play as default market instead mi store without root?

I installed play store and I don't like root my phone.

Tnx
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] doncoop:
You can't while the MI store is in there.

Either root and freeze or install a custom rom.

Hopefully now a developer rom is out a global one will follow which will be without Chinese bloat.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] aliandre:
Tnx.

Can I root phone and remove mi store then unroot phone?

Is there a way to unroot the phone?
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] doncoop:
Mot sure on unroot. But you cannot remove it only freeze it. It's baked into miui so if you remove the phone will brick itself. So definitely not advised.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] aliandre:
Please tell me how I do it?(root and unroot)
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] doncoop:
Haven't done it myself so CA not help too much.

Check the miui website forums and also the xiaomi forums on their site.

They seem to be more active than here.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] Supermatt01:
Most super user tools can unroot but the best by far is SuperSU. It has the option to do a full unroot and it would work for you I think.

Rooting is quite a chore really. I did it by installing kingroot app and then using terminal emulator to install SuperSU app and binaries. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euK91peMIEI instructions are on this video. I do suggest kingroot app to the one in the video links.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] aliandre:
Tnx.

Do I get an official update(ota) if I use this method to root and unroot my phone?

And Is this method works on version 7.2.4 stable China?

Thanke you very much

Sorry for my bad English
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] aliandre:
In video miui ROM of phone was global, but until now global ROM not available in official site!!!

http://en.miui.com/download-298.html
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] Supermatt01:
Yes, that ROM is not official. But this process works on the official ROM too. But I had no success on any ROM higher than 7.1.1. There is an official ROM bearing that version number, I'm running on it now. I don't know if you can get an ota update while rooted, I haven't tried it. Also I'm not sure of the outcome of ota updating your phone after unrooting, though I have read that many users have done it and had no complaints. I'm not going to update my ROM because I'm interested in keeping root. But you could try it. SuperSU even has a possibility to stay intact through an ota update. But I've never tried it.

AICP​

Android Ice Cold Project​

AICP is known by everyone as Ice Cold Project that started on Desire HD and since then evolved into a mature ROM with the BEST community you can find!!!

Until Lollipop, Rom has always been AOKP based. Unfortunately, since AOKP either stopped development or will make a comeback later this year, we changed our base to CM when it comes to hardware, drivers and some features.

If there are any bugs, either we will sort them or CM team if it concerns their modifications. This rom isn't CM supported so no need to report errors or bugs to them!!

Full Changelog link: goo.gl/mIgmYG

​

Don't disable Heads-Up. You wont be able to answer phone calls otherwise.

You tell... :P

​

ROMS should contain everything you need to enjoy Marshmallow. You are not required to install any Add Ons, simply download the latest ROM, gapps, flash it, and go!

You are STRONGLY recommended to fully wipe your device before flashing, and if possible avoid restoring system apps and system data with Titanium Backup - these can cause stability issues that are very hard to debug. If you believe you know what you're doing - then fine, go ahead, but please don't complain if you experience strange behavior.

How to flash:

Don't do it if you don't know it

ROM has gapps persistance in between dirty flashes

KERNEL:

Kernel in this rom follows CM source with custom additions.

PREREQUISITE FOR OTA:

To be able to flash over OTA app, TWRP recovery is needed.

You can still use CWM and OTA app, but only to download zip file and flash it manually from within recovery. Zip gets saved under AICP_ota folder on your internal SDcard.

If you want to contribute to the AICP or wanna see what is being worked on/merge feel free to visit our gerrit, link is at the bottom!!!

Will this work for the Boost Mobile variant of this phone?
[E 2015 Android Development] mykenyc:
Going to try it now.
[E 2015 Android Development] sandix:
This ROM does work for boost mobile but you need to flash MVNOSlayer (After the first boot) and also do: "fastboot oem fsg-id boost" to set the carrier in the bootloader for Android M(Do BEFORE flashing).

Hope this helps all my boost friends! Been using AICP for years on other phones and love the features, now using this Moto E on Boost and have no issues (Minus maybe one or two bugs that are negligible to most users as they correlate to more low level settings, but has no bearing on the phone or the OS itself for normal use.)

cheers there,,

it was only until yesterday that i had the courage to flash my BA to windows mobile 6...

To be honest ... you guys did a great job..

however, bugs have made their way into this one as well, so i will i will be asking you guys to post all your bugs in the following format:

ROM version:

bugs in :

PHONE:

WIFI:

PROGRAMS:

etc...
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 ROM Development] life owner:
rom version: 5.2.1629

radio rom : 1.12

proplems:

phone:none

wifi: i can't use the wireless manager to turn on the wifi

prgrams:

1) x-button is not working , all programs are minimizing instead of closing, despite of the x-button being correctly configured

2) i cant get to type arabic letter with the keyboard, though allthe other arabic functions are working,

performance: the device is a bit sluggish

THINGS THAT ARE ANNOTING BUT DONOT REPRESENT A BUG:

1) button lock is not there,,, it is really annoying to find out that your BA is making a random phone call while in your pocket !!

2) I really liked the broadcom bluetooth stack , can i get it working here?

3) sim contacts appear in the phone book and there is no option to disable this , it would be really nice if i could get rid of the duplicates

and again:

thank you guys big time, especially HELMI for the super work,,

waiting for everybody to share their bugs :)

you can use comm manager, you just have to turn it on tru wlan settings esp after every SR, but after that you can activate it using comm manager. just like wm5...

one thing i noticed is the lack of keyboard sttttuttttteeeerrrriinnnnggg... which is great news since i always use the keyboard via one-handed operation.

x button is working on my unit, which is easily noticed since i have wisbar.

one bug i noticed though is that whenever ur connected to the pc and its syncing with the BA, it will totally freeze the BA for the duration that the pc and BA are syncing, sometimes causing the BA to hang.
