I am sure this is different for everyone, but the "exclusive" ones I would care about are Smart Storage, Hardware HDR+, and EIS (you can get EIS via customization on current 5x but it is nice to have it supported and easily enabled)

[Nexus 5X General] iamterence:
You know, for the longest time I have been thinking that iPhone loyalists were some of the most jaded people on the planet. Then Google came and pulled this out and now I KNOW that Nexus fanboys are right there in that same category. Bunch of whiny babies. They killed the Nexus line because it's purpose has run it's course. They release a NEW line of devices that's aimed at the mass market of consumers (like Samsung, iPhone, HTC, LG, etc. owners) and everyone loses their minds because their favorite toy has come to an end. The Pixel line is an EVOLUTION of the Nexus line, not just a replacement. It's been what they've been building towards since the OG Nexus One. Of course you're not gonna get the same features.

Then everybody wants to ***** about being "left behind" with these updates. When you buy a Nexus, you're guarenteed OS support for up to two years. Guess what? You're STILL getting updates for up to two years. So what, you're salty that you're no longer getting the update first? Too bad. The game changed with the Pixel devices, so get used to it. It's the SUCCESSOR to the Nexus line. If you don't like it, jump ship. You won't be missed. And Google isn't going to lose money over it.

I'm just hoping that Pixel Launcher will be available. Space for photos would be nice as well, but besides that i'm gonna be just fine. XD

Pixel Launcher is available. The Round Icons come with Android 7.1. I'm just hoping, that we will get the Google Assistant.

I just buy this mobile phone for 2 weeks ago. I was so thrilled for gesture of finger print and now? Oh my god,

Previous year i bought lg g3 i was like little kid: "omg nice phone oh Lg is great company i will get a new feature in next version of android nice " i says in my mind, but no Qualcomm says we couldn't developed drivers for snapdragon 801 for android 7.0 and gues what? That Why I buy nexus phone. For Next time maybe i will by iphone one, im not fan of apple but what about theirs support? All iphone from iphone 5 since iphone 7 get ios10.0 with same features.... Sorry about that im writing about apple. And sorry for my English im not good in languages.

EDIT: When i was bought nexus I don't knew about pixel phone, maybe its my bad luck :D
[Nexus 5X General] xsasuke:
Pixel Launcher, Google Assistant, unlimited photo/vídeo backup and smart storage. Why make this exclusive features to Pixel Phones? These things are possible to put in any phone, hardware limitations are not the problem in this case. If they do this to sell Pixels, what a big failure? I wouldn't buy a phone for this features. Hope they revert their stupid decision and add it to Nexus phones.

I understand the brand building and making Pixel unique with added value. What I don't understand is abandoning the Nexus line. And abandoning the developer phone concept.

It's like they abandon the developer community in sone way.

People here contributed the google experience through android with many-many ideas. Also many developers use nexus devices to test their product at the first place.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think there opens a gap that needs to be filled.
[Nexus 5X General] iamterence:
Looks like we WILL be getting the fingerprint gestures for the notification shade!

https://www.engadget.com/2016/10/07/the-pixels-release-doesn-t-mean-your-nexus-is-completely-toast/

"The update will also enable Moves: an opt-in gesture-based feature that will open or close the notifications slider."
[Nexus 5X General] krelvinaz:
Locked into what contract? That is a consumer decision, not a Google one.

I didn't get my Nexus from a carrier, no contract, paid for it up front. Works just fine on the same carrier of the phone I replaced it with still sitting in a box as a backup emergency phone.

If I want to spend $649+ for a new phone in a few weeks, then I just get it.

That is a lot of money though... right now everything is on hold as the status of root is, but that is a different decision and issue.

Why is that Googles issue? If people can't afford it, they won't buy it.
[Nexus 5X General] iamterence:
I think that he meant plan-wise. I'm still locked to my contract too, but I bought my N5X straight up when it was released last year.

[Nexus 5X General] circuitsports:
Sit down Terrance - I just bought another 5x 3 weeks ago and the ad didnt say "support for 2 years" it said "get the latest and greatest first"

Instead what I am going to get is akin to a Samsung Galaxy product with a to be determined watered down version at some point in the future. The Pixel and Pixel Xl aren't successors, they are 5X+ and 6P+ in a new body with software the only defining feature of mention and the doubling of the price, that's the very definition of a screwing

Nice try with the "run it's course" - the pixel phones serve the exact same purpose as the nexus phones - to highlight android or presumably the soon to be ultimate fckfest, andromeda, which will probably burn the pixel owners, assuming those phones even last that long or it's just Moto Gooogle phone v2

hi guys,i know this is not such a thing to ask for..but when i usely going to buy a phone i do my reaserch and see all those comparision videos on youtube and check if there's any problems and issues with it...THE PROBLEM IIIS, when i first googled ''lg g3'' i start notice a commun issue that a lot of people having *BOOTLOOP* and it sems like there's no solutions or way to fix it. and almost

all models did have that issue...and a freind of min tells me to buy the international version ''D855'' and of course i search for it and i fund some d855 owners did have this problm too :eek:

PLEASE HELP! what model i should buy ?? :confused: :( or should i go with the D855!

ps: am from algeria (north africa)

thnx
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] umair42:
About bootloop issue,there is none.Only some lg "G4" were having this issue and not "G3".

Those g3s you found having this problem would be rooted and running some custom roms or kernels.

So don't worry about it and get the d855 variant.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JordanSpin:
you don't need the d855 - just be sure to buy one that's already unlocked or unlock it yourself before you flash to a custom firmware.

you can get it unlocked for about 10$....or a bit over that. check out unlockcellphonecode.org/shop/network-unlock-codes/lg-sim-unlock-codes/lg-g3-network-unlock-code/

i got my g5 unlocked there in about 10 minutes.

i'll upload it to somewhere faster later on. Already got the firmware and flash it to my device.

in case someone want to root it.

1) Flash twrp with odin

2) download this SuperSU and flash with twrp

Can I ask why you need a zip?

If you haven't got a PC then use Flashfire.
[Galaxy Tab S General] aumast:
Thinks for your replay because I don't want to lose custom recovery and root if I use Odin and one day I have hard brick my s3 with Odin method so I prefer zip flash method that's all:)
[Galaxy Tab S General] ashyx:
Then use Flashfire. It does everything you just stated.

By the way a hard brick is a dead device. Something you obviously didn't have.

It's almost impossible to brick a device with odin.

Almost Stuck at Samsung

Hi,

Thanks for the ROM, I've been waiting for this for a long time. I have the SM-T705 and have been running an AOSP version of Marshmallow, wanted to upgrade to the real thing.

I used Odin 3.11.1 and followed instructions on the download page. Flash via Odin suceeded, and when it rebooted, it got stuck on the Samsung screen long enough for me to do all kinds of research, force reboot, reset, clear cache, and see it get stuck again. Now I am almost done writing this post and the Samsung finally boots up.

So, all smiles now, but to anybody flashing, please note that the SAMSUNG logo stays solid for about 8-10 minutes before completing. Maybe this is because I have a 64Gig flash card installed? Who knows.:)
[Galaxy Tab S General] Deleted member 7647467:
Hey,

thanks for the post and the free download mirrors. Wanted to get this update since quite a long time, but that sammobile site just always kinda kept me from doing it...

Flashed the package via FlashFire, everything except the Recovery. Tab is running smoothely and just looks beautyful. All my Apps and Setting are still there (for the biggest part, some got lost, but they were'nt too important to me anyway...) and it's just great.

Thank you so much!

well I installed it and it works fine. then i tried rooting it by flashing cf-autoroot-twrp-t705 and now it will not turn on. not even to recovery mode. i didn't know rooting requires a specific android version to be installed. :(

update: managed to get into download mode and reflashed stock marshmallow. so how is progress on the rooting scene of t705 marshmallow?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akjfhdk:
I tried installing one of the 10 stable versions. I was on stock jw4 with cf+cwm karnel. It started installing and then went into boot in middle for no reason. But it didn't boot. It just kept booting into recovery (not the cwm version i had) with the cm logo.

I tried installing again but it aborted installation every time. (didn't check the log)

I then tried to go back to stock but never boots,in recovery i get a bunch of:

E:failed to mount /sdcard (File exists)

E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount /sdcard

your storage not prepared yet. please use UI menu

for format and reboot actions.

Meida files copy failed.

system unable to Format /data...Internal SD card cannot be mounted

rfs format failed on dev block etc etc etc

I tried all the ways i found here but none helped,worked on it for hours. I also flashed a bunch of stock versions with no luck. All just went to recovery with all these erros. Only thing that actually booted was a very old version stock jp something,got same message on recovery but then booted into...cm10 . I just got the boot and then black screen with buttons looking like they are on.

I then gave up and decided i would install cm and hopefully that would be compatible with what ever was changed since it happened because of it.

I now tried installing all the 10 stable versions and then all the 11snapshots. I either get error 7 or 0 and installation aborted or the same thing that happened the first time-it starts installation and then boots, gets stuck in (cm logo) bootloop and ends up in recovery.

ATM my phone is kind of bricked i guess. How do i fix this?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] usmanxhmed:
Well Google released very expensive Pixel and Pixel XL phones. Is it any better than our OP3.

I feel its no better because:

- bigger chin.

- expensive

- only on screen button which reduces real estate.

- dash charging will be faster

- May be better screen to body ratio

Advantages of Pixel.

- latest Android

- may be faster, though OP3 is fine too

- bigger battery, may be bit more screen on time.

But all that worth the massive price tag. Most of cant get it on contract as well.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] nikhil.agrawal:
i agree with the chins. looks so darn ugly, reminds me of iphone 4. to be honest i dont see the pixel phone being a huge success mainly because of the price, atleast in india its priced at 57000 (856 usd) for the entry level 5 inch variant. at this price people here would prefer an iphone 7 or any other flagships. and if htc is going to honour warranties here in india, google is screwed as htc's service is pathetic.

Back in old days nexus used to be best phone for the price. Now its so expensive. I would not get it. Ill stay with oneplus or xiaomi. Both giving high end phones with price under 450$ ... I cannot wait next xiaomi 5.7" curved 2k 821dragon with 4000mha battery ...
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] F4uzan:
The only "real" advantage from what I can see is the unlimited photo backup service and latest and greatest Android. Probably that camera and battery too. These however, doesn't equal to a worthy upgrade from the OnePlus 3, I'm better off waiting for another year for another phone since the upgrade just doesn't worth the price tag to me.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] usmanxhmed:
Chin needed to be less, even by force, price guarantee failure, or may be in future they will reduce the price. Otherwise likes of OP3 and others will eat it. They are forcing users not to buy it somehow.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] usmanxhmed:
What are the benefits of curved screen though?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] usmanxhmed:
Slight better camera or battery improvement is fair enough. But not for massive price. Unlimited photo back up is good. But there are many people who don't back up photos that way. And that much.

That it shatters when you drop it.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] usmanxhmed:
Well loss of usable or visible screen, shattering by slighting hitting phone on side bezels, accidental touches, tougher to hold phones, failure to apply screen protector are fee more benefits as well.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] dcdevito:
I was on the fence as I recently sold my Nexus 6 and am now using my wife's old Moto X (2013). I waited until yesterday to make a decision on what to get. Well, I quickly realized I shouldn't have waited to get the OP3. I was a OPO owner, sold it to get the Shamu - which I honestly regretted from the get go, the Nexus 6 had performance issues.

Nexus phones were always historically good overall, but no matter if they launched at a high retail price or inexpensive, in the end the hardware ALWAYS disappointed one way or another. Perhaps this time they may have finally gotten it right in terms of hardware, but I think this time they royally screwed up everything else:

-Google Assistant (and other features) are Pixel only features, some may not even get to the Nexus line at all (to me the biggest mistake they may ever make)

-Support for 2 years of updates - this has become probably the biggest complaint, and for good reason. My iPad 2 still gets updates, even if not to iOS 10. Incredible issue Google needs to address

-Nexus line won't get 7.1 until 2017 (beta will be released by the end of the year?) Seriously WTF is wrong with Google? This is beyond messed up

Android's biggest issue is fragmentation, which leads to OS update inconsistencies, security vulnerabilities and overall mismatched UX - yet their solution is to make all that worse with one product line. I don't get it, I just don't get it. If it weren't for the OnePlus 3 I'd be an iPhone owner right now, and that frightens me.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] badboy47:
Everytime Google announced a new phone, I get super hyped but this is the first time I don't feel that way anymore. Maybe OnePlus 3 has spoiled me the elegant design and all the cool features that OxygenOs feature. The Pixel design is ugly, its fat, dem bezel and pricing is just ridiculous. They didn't even bother taking any users feedback and just slapped together a design. Oh and comparing it with other phones in the market, its no where comparable with other $900+ devices. Anyway, I am glad I jumped on to OnePlus 3 from Nexus 6p and I won't be going back to Google phones anytime soon.

I had been eyeing the OP3 but decided to hold out until the Pixel announcement. I think I'm going with the OP3 at this point. The Pixel XL definitely looks good. The QHD screen, direct-from-Google updates and camera are all nice upgrades over the OP3 but I don't see it being worth nearly double the price. I could buy the OP3 now and the OP4 next year and still break even with getting the Pixel XL this year.

- Can i still buy Moto X 2013 as a back phone? or its showing its age now?

- Glad i didn't wait for OP3, it was very tough to wait or jump.

- Are your sure, Google Assistant and related features are Pixel only?

- Google give support for two years, later you can install a ROM, other companies like Sammy give support for three to six months i feel, stop updates, even if they update touchwiz looks like same.

- There wont be much difference between 7 and 7.1 hopefully.

- iPhone is a good option as well, just big bezel in a bigger phone.

Personally, regardless of whether I get either of the Google Pixel phones later, I'm excited for XDA devs to extract the pixel-exclusive frameworks/apps out of the Pixel phone so that we can stuff like the google assistant on other phones (like the OP3) regardless of whether it supports it by default (such as it was done with the google dialer + framework)

also hoping it really takes off since google duo and allo come pre-installed, and I'd love for everyone to get on those two platforms
