I have heard about people having battery issues after updating to 6.0, but mostly with bluetooth connection. I myself have been noticing a significant battery drain with and without bluetooth connection since updating. I would much rather have a phone with KitKat on it. I never liked Lollipop and I do not care for Marshmallow either. I am not happy with the direction that Google is going with their os.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] dbroadus2007:
I agree. I am running Bluetooth all day so my Moto 360 2nd gen can be connected. I don't get it. This phone has almost identical specs as the 6p and is better than the Moto pure, but both of them have working Marshmallow. I'm not happy at all. I'd HATE to have to go to you know who.... :rolleyes:

Also while writing this post on my DT2, it is connected to the charger it came with, and the battery is draining while it is connected! I may have to use RSD Life tomorrow to downgrade back to 5.1. I heard it was possible. I'd rather have a working lollipop than a half working Marshmallow...
[Droid Turbo 2 General] mjones73:
Your quick charger may not be working anymore, no issues with quick charging with 6.0 here.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] classic757:
I hear you.

I tried to use rsd lite to downgrade to 5.1.1 but was not able to do so. Maybe I did something wrong, idk. Phone is okay, not bricked or anything, just would not downgrade.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] dbroadus2007:
Well I did a hard reset from recovery. Let it charge all the way up. So far battery life has been a lot better today. I've been up since 6:15am and it is now 2:40pm. It dropped from 100% to 76%. I can deal with that, but remember I did do a factory reset, which always sucks...
[Droid Turbo 2 General] classic757:
That sounds like better battery life for sure.

Oh, and I hate doing a factory reset. All that reinstalling apps and everything. What a headache. Well, I may have to resort to that, idk.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] dbroadus2007:
I think it's worth a shot. My next step was to call Verizon and request a replacement or something. I'm satisfied for now. I'll keep letting it drain completely before I charge so the battery can settle in more.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] damienj80:
Rockin 6.0 over hur

I purchased my Droid 2 Turbo from Verizon on the 4th of April and did the Storm Trooper edition with Lime Green accents so it stated that the device would be on my door step on or before April 11th ... And wouldn't you guess it arrives before lol... Only an optimist would do that lol.... Anyway got it on April 8th 4 days later and it came with 6.0 already installed. No upgrade needed... So maybe its tied to a region thing or something ... not sure but i can send screen pics if needed.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] classic757:
I hear you.

Well I took the plunge and factory reset my DT2. Battery was just draining too fast and I think hard resetting was the best option. Hopefully the battery life will improve.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] skulls993:
Similar story

I had to reset my DT2 so many times because of overheat and battery drain, support was not helpful at all, the phone was going so bad i had to switch to a iPhone just for me to have a phone that lasts at least all day without charging. I wish you the best of luck!
[Droid Turbo 2 General] RikoT14:
Just got off the phone with Verizon. They said the updates are pushed out regionally, so some of us are going to be waiting a while.

Anyone know why they are doing it this way?
[Droid Turbo 2 General] classic757:
Wow! I feel for you. Yeah, that's one thing I notice about the DT2, it can get really hot.

Not crazy about that. Also, I have a yellowish tint on my screen. I compared it to the IPS LCD screen on my LG Smartphone and the yellowish tint on the DT2 is definitely noticeable. I wonder is this an issue with the DT2 or do all Amoled screens have this issue. Personally I do not care for Amoled screens because eventually they all suffer from burn-in.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] skulls993:
The sad fate of Amoled screens :/
[Droid Turbo 2 General] th3drow:
I tried that upgrade assistant, but no matter what I couldn't get my phone to detect. From what I'm seeing, not getting the upgrade could be a good thing at this point I guess.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] romma1:
I have had two replacements from Verizon this week. I had the green vertical line so I had them ship a replacement. The replacement came with audio issues. New phone okay so far, but both of the replacements came with 6.0 installed already.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] deeje00:
I got another update early this morning. Anyone else?
[Droid Turbo 2 General] classic757:
I received an update on yesterday. System version 24.14.11 updated to 24.14.12.

Minor update, a security patch for the most part and maybe a few tweaks here or there.

Not a major update, Certainly not 6.0.1, which is disappointing.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] deeje00:
I was hoping it would fix the volume box staying on till I touch the screen. Unfortunately not.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] matt30:
Anyone seeing inaccurate battery stats? My Wi-Fi has been off all day but the battery graphs still show as if it's on.

Also, app standby doesn't seem to be deactivating any apps. In developer options there are no inactive apps.

Anyone else seeing these issues?
[Droid Turbo 2 General] mjones73:
Just got the patch here too.. hopefully this gets MM rolling for those who didn't get it yet.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] Zeljko1234:
I had that fee times (Force). I remember the same bug on other devices and other Android versions as well. Usually reboot solves the problem or wiping cache from recovery.

Sent from my XT1580

What about 6.0.1 for Moto X Force Latam?

24.14.12 OTA can brick the phone.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] bigv5150:
My update went fine but I'm done with moto these update fiascos are ridiculous at this point. Thinking of nexus next time around.
[Droid Turbo 2 General] Bricking Expert:
Did you let google improve your location accuracy? It lets google do wifi sweeps even when wifi is turned off. My GS3 on 4.4.2 battery graph shows that wifi is always on even when I know I turned it off. Wiping the cache, ART/Davlik, and even reinstalling my system ROM doesn't change it. Try turning off improved location accuracy for 24 hours and see what happens. I will do the same and update you.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] panamaniac:
The production is flawless. I really like it. Here were my concerns before it arrived:

1) It would be defective (antenna showing, dust under the camera lens, etc.: *It was perfect, no blemishes.

2) WiFi calling wouldn't work (I don't use it but others said it wasn't working at all on their Sprint phones). *I had to go thru the setup twice and the second time it worked fine.

3) The screen would look washed out. *It's bright and vibrant. I wonder if the store model wasn't a production model.

4) The fingerprint scanner would be too annoying to reach. *This complaint is valid. It sort of defeats the purpose having it on the back when it's on my desk all day.

5) Battery life. *Haven't had it long enough to verify how good it is.

6) Laggy. *Nope, it's blazing fast.

7) Regretting not getting the S7 or S7 Edge. *No regrets yet, I love the price point on the G5.

Hope this is helpful, feel free to ask more questions.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sstanton86:
Same here mate. Had the same concerns but mine its immense and blemish free. Funnily enough I had an s7 before this, and it doesn't even come close
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Miustone:
That let me sleep so much better! My Pre-Ordered G5 is coming between the 15th and 18th April. I get a Silver One with free Cam Plus Module... Hope there are no building issues, I'm one of the First in Germany who gets one... :fingers-crossed:
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] panamaniac:
Nice man. I wouldnt pay for cam plus i think but would have loved a free one. Hope its fun.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] liam_davenport:
Just got my G5 yesterday in UK and I have few issues The gap between the battery and device is un even on the right side and have some backlight bleed on top and bottom of the screen :crying:
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Miustone:
Gives at all 4000mah of Battery Size. That's really nice for free, and I love to take Photos with a Hardware Key like on the Xperias from Sony :o I'm really happy about my Pre-Order. But...

When I read this I could cry... UK is close to Germany... Can you give it back to get a new One? :rolleyes::fingers-crossed:
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] liam_davenport:
Yes but gonna trade for a different device don't want another G5 don't get me wrong it's a great phone but nothing special too many build issues for me and I believe there is no unlocked bootloader so this phone not for me will trade it for a S7 Edge performance wise exynos is way better and has a bigger batter
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] panamaniac:
Dont worry about the gap. You have to look for it to care. And tru that about the greater battery and hardware button. Again, id be psyched if they'd thrown one in for me. :)
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] liam_davenport:
The gap isn't an issue but when you pay lots of money for something you'd expect better quality.. Anyways like I say it's a great phone can't knock the hardware just needs some small improvements/refinements and it'll be perfect :good:
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] zkyevolved:
I picked up the Galaxy S7 Edge and I've been playing with it and comparing it to the G4. Camera photography is hit or miss. Obviously the G4 and G5 (since they have the same sensor specs) will capture more detail (16mpx vs 12mpx) but G5 will have better front facing camera, awesomely neat wide angel.

S7E has VERY good low light... I mean VERY good low light! Huge differences when I take night time shots!

But ... Samsung has its flaws as well. I'm not going to cancel my G5 pre-order, I want to get my hands on it. But Samsung S7E is def. a very good, long lasting device in terms of battery life - let's see how the G5 is in the end! If I get a flawed G5 I'll be disappointed, but I'll ask for another and if that one comes back flawed, I'll keep the S7E as my own personal device.

But I really hope it isn't as bad as some people say here.
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] liam_davenport:
Yeah but the processing on g5 is hit and miss too so would be good to see some proper comparisons against S7E, As for battery on G5 I got 3-4 sot in less then 24hrs guess will improve over time but as of now not very impressed 2014 flagships can beat this lol, Just watch for Led backlight bleed if you have it you'll see on first boot or put a black image on screen and go in a dark room and check the corners and side lots of units got this fault, It's not a bad device I think with the right modules and some development i.e kernels etc should be a great phone but i'm digging the S7 way more feels amazing in the hand very premium <3 Plus the exynos chip is very optimised if you watch against the SD820 variant destroys it apart from gaming adreno gpu is boss :cool: Just the price of the S7E kills me lol

Not trying to push anyone away from the phone just my experience with it
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] zkyevolved:
Price is only 45 euros more for the S7E here in Spain.

Camera is much worse than my G4 :( ...

Check these out:

Picture of my shoe, same distance. Color on the G4 is far more accurate. Detail is much higher (look at the button next to the shoe lace). I zoomed out of the G4 image to be able to be almost identical to the S7E picture.

View attachment 3713370

In the next picture, color on the S7E is SO washed out, it really changed what the wall looks like. Color is also VERY washed out. That is not a "blue sky"...

View attachment 3713371

I'm very unimpressed with what Samsung offered in terms of well lit pictures.

On the other hand, here is a night shot. Samsung DESTROYED the G4, but then again, G4 is older... And S7E has better low light camera. Either way... Both were taken max aperture (10 sec for Samsung, 30 for LG), 50 ISO, both mounted on tripods. Also these are the best of maybe 4 or 5 images.

View attachment 3713373

I hope this has helped anyone who is very happy with good shooters. I just think that Samsung doing a good job, but not compared to LG in most regular shots. Colors are washed out, details are missing, over sharpened.... Meh... Not impressed, honestly :(... On the other hand, night shots are SUPERB on the Samsung, but this is only my 3rd time shooting at night - 99.999% of my shots are daytime or indoor. If the S7E had a better or same camera as the G5, I might have just kept it, but I know I'm going to return it after I test the G5 and S7E side by side (like this images). Best shooter (quality, speed, battery life) will be my next device :)

Oh, if people are interested, I can test out G4, G5 and S7E images. I have a bunch of G4 and S7E side by sides already, so if anyone wants them let me know and I can publish some information and details about them. :)
[LG G5 Guides, News, & Discussion] linkmx:
Thank you for the pictures, I would like to see more side by side comparisons if you please.

[Nexus 6P Accessories] tsuttie99:
Hey XDA,

I have issues with buying technology because I am always looking for zero compromises. Been holding off on a battery bank for the 6P because i haven't found "the one"....

Wondering if anyone has seen any battery banks that meet all/most of these criterion:

USB C 3A Input/Output

Passthrough charging (charge the phone and battery bank in series)

6000 mAh or higher
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Azdian:
I'm more than happy with this product from RAVPower

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019IFIJW8/ref=s9_acsd_al_bw_c_x_2
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RngrYogi:
Great find man! I been looking for something like this. Now if I can only find out if the 18650's are replaceable! Does it look like this box has screws to easily disassemble it ?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] lookitzjohnny:
the battery pack i'm waiting for (hopefully not forever) is something with 3a fast charging that is more pocket friendly than anker/ravpower ~8000 mAH+
[Nexus 6P Accessories] zpiders:
I bought this recently and its working great.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/iVoler-1000...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00

Not only does it support fast charging via USB C, it uses the USB C port to charge itself as well. This means the battery bank charges in about 3 hours which is quite fast for a 10000mah pack. With a full charge, I can charge my 6p twice.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Azdian:
Nope, It doesn't have screws, I'm pretty sure it's hidden under the back cover.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ttminh1997:
Actually this one doesn't have true USB C fast charge (it only goes up to 2.4A @ 5V, not the full 3A)

I second this pack. It's a bit on the bigger side, but the added capacity is really helpful when you have to go off the grid for an extended period of time (read international flights), and the extra weight isn't that obvious if you just throw the pack in your backpack or purse, for our lady friends out there.

As for the screws, I don't think it has, and the 18650s aren't supposed to be replaceable either. But heck, the cells are of exceptionally high quality and rated up to 500 cycles, so you don't really have to worry about them going bad.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Gubro:
Not true, it DOES have true USB C fast charge as it gives you 5V 3A.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Quetzalcoalt_Lp:
Wow, nice, I guess i'll buy one too.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Squadra156:
That bank from RAVPOWER seems very nice, I ordered one today.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] galaxys:
Yep, RavPower seems to be the one...cool!
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ttminh1997:
I stand corrected! Thanks for pointing this out. Last time I checked, it only supported pseudo fast charge (2.4A @ 5V)
[Nexus 6P Accessories] nramalama:
I just got the Anker PowerCore+ 20100 USB-C and find it really good as well.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] ButtonBoy:
I just picked up the same, and I'm impressed so far. It came with a carry bag and 3 cables: A to Micro, A to C, & C to C. Capacity is 20,100 mAh.

Amazon link if you're interested. Will post a review after using it a while.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Notizer:
Dear friends,

Could you please share your experience with power banks so far? I'm looking for some to buy soon...
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Gubro:
I bought the Xiaomi Power Bank Pro. It does have a USB type C socket.

Unfortunately that socket is to charge the power bank itself, so connecting the 6P via the USB type C actually drains the phones battery and charges the power bank from the phone. :-o

It does come with a USB A to USB C cable, but it does not quick charge the 6P. :(
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Notizer:
Thanks for your answer, I've read that pressing POWER button on the bank while connecting to the phone could launch charging via USB-C socket - did you try it?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RojasTKD:
O recently ordered the RAVpower 20,100mAh 3.0 one as there was a $10 off coupon code, but can understand the desire for something smaller and more pocket-able.

This is closest thing I was able to find that is pocket-able and, i think, meets your criteria. But no reviews and I've never heard of the brand:

http://www.amazon.com/Imazing-10000...ick+Charge+3.0+USB-C+Type+C++Portable+Charger

Heck I now want one of these too, if they are actually any good....
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tsuttie99:
So what are the differences between the Anker and the RAVpower?

Do they both support being charged at 5V/3A?

EDIT: That pocket-able one is kind of tempting - shame it isn't a more reputable brand
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RojasTKD:
The RAVpower unite I ordered does both USB-C 5V 3A and Quick Charge 3.0 the Anker unite seemed not to (not even sure it did either, must where QC 2.0).
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tsuttie99:
Can you tell me please, if the RAVpower supports pass-through charging? (Basically does it allow you to charge the battery bank AND a connected phone simultaneously?) In a perfect world it'd be nice to plug the battery bank into a wall with a type C, while charging the phone in the output type c, to wake up to a full battery bank and full phone
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RojasTKD:
I don't know for sure, but on the Amazon page the question was asked and a a couple people reported charging both simultaneously. Overnight Charging should be plenty to charge both from 0% to 100%, as the unite uses Quick Charging to charge the 20,100mAh power bank in about 4.5 hours and the Nexus 6P takes less than 1.5 hour.

See here:

http://www.amazon.com/forum/-/Tx1AI4RXRC9SA1T/ref=ask_dp_dpmw_al_hza?asin=B019IFIJW8

Though I understand that doing so is more taxing on the battery and the extra strain can affect the its longevity. So I'd use that method only if you really NEED to.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Gubro:
I did try it, and no, it is not changing the direction, the phone still starts charging the power bank...
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Notizer:
Thanks for clarifying - I ordered RavPover 20100 upgraided QC3.0 version. Its USB-C is for in and out charging.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] tsuttie99:
I think I'll be getting the same. I am also in the process of finding some nice cables, capable of delivering the full 3A. I'd hate to have a cable be the bottleneck of this whole operation.

Can anyone vouch for any particular cables on amazon?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Notizer:
Just got RavPover 20100 upgraided QC3.0 version- charges 3 device at the same time. USB-C allows rapid charging for Nexus 6P. Unfortunately, I've got strange issue - sometimes the charging does not start on my Nexus - but the issue is random and started (I think so) after last OTA update. Happens with RavPover as well, but started after third attempt.

If anyone face this "intermittent" charging issue - please share your experience (any links to conversations about it I mean)

[Nexus 6P Accessories] RojasTKD:
Those will do the job, but I want something that will allow fast charging or quick charge my devices (The RAVPower mentioned here offers both).

That's what I like about these they will Quick Charge (QC 3.0) my LG G5 and fast charge my Nexus 6P (Via USB-C):

http://www.amazon.com/Charger-Trons...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

http://www.amazon.com/PowerIQ-Anker...&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

Of course you paying more for the fast charge tech (except in the case of that battery back you posted, for the same price U get the extra fast and quick charging tech. Oh and the battery pack itse;f charges using QC 3.0 so you can fill it's 20,100mAh in about 4.5 hours.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] xdafly:
At least one or more of those Amazon devices does not pass Benson's test. At least one of them melted a users phone or damaged the charging port (see comments posted by Amazon buyers).

Be careful out there.

I can't remember a time where cable choice was such a minefield.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] galaxys:
Yep, great plan! Never had issues with Anker...
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Notizer:
It is hard to believe but RavPover 20100 failed to charge Palm Centro via USB port. Regular PC USB port charges as usual. I know it is even harder to believe someone actually still use such a phone, but yes, it is still in use because of unbelievably great (and forgotten) idea of Palm Desktop sync.... (If you ever met something similar to the all-in-one Palm Desktop for modern phones - please let me know... ).
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RojasTKD:
Yeah, it a bit scary...

The car charger is a "new version" that is supposedly "fixed"... So I hope it will not fry any devices.

Anything that is Quick Charge 3.0 capable is technically not USB type C compliant is it uses variable Voltages to quick charge, that doesn't mean it unsafe. Anker has a good track record, so I'm not concerned there.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] Pilz:
I had the Anker Type-C battery pack and the included A-C cable is 100% NOT inspec. It pulls 2.5A when I plug my phone (tested with 2 separate USB multimeters) I called Anker about told them about the issue, but they told me the battery was a temporary bridge product until they launch their 'real' Type-C ones later one. Anker also said they didn't know there was Type-C standard or who Benson leung was... This was back in February so maybe things have changed since then
[Nexus 6P Accessories] GatorsUF:
A little hard to follow but what is the consensus on the "Perfect Portable Power Bank"?

It appears that the RavPower and Anker banks are the top 2. Is there a difference between them in terms of how fast they charge the phone? Are they both "Benson certified" (assuming you have the right cable)?

I don't always follow the spec stuff so QC2.0 vs 3.0 vs USBC fast charge is all a blur to me. I seem to remember that the 6P doesn't support "Quick Charge" technically so whats the best option of these chargers if that is the case?
[Nexus 6P Accessories] RojasTKD:
Well, there is no "perfect" anything. Different people will gravitate to different things and have different preferences.

That said the RAVPower unite had a port for USB type C, QC 3.0 and regular "smart" USB. I have a Nexus 6P (USB-C) and a LG G5 (QC 3.0) and it quick/fast chargers them both, using the proper port.

At 20,100mAh it's a little too big for most people to pocket, but if that's not your plan it's a great option.
[Nexus 6P Accessories] firoz3321:
