Yesterday buy a 6p and have a s7 edge, I am happy with this setup at least for 3 years.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Semseddin:
My last 3 phones were Nexus 6, Moto Maxx and Moto G in order. So you can guess that i was all into the "clean google experience" thingy. I found google experience highly overrated and hyped after owning my first samsung S7 Edge. Its software package sold as Clean UI is total nonsense that doesn't even offer useful dialer and messaging apps. The camera app is underwhelming at best. Calendar is light years in the past in terms of usefulness. Google bloatware is so heavy and useless that nobody gives a flying f... like Google+, Photos, Hangouts and their useless sideapps like Magazines,Movies,Books are just worthless in Turkey. Its audio player Google Play Music always hiccups on whatever hardware it plays on. The Nexus didn't even have a File manager built in and that is supposed to be a Geeks phone. Just waiting for the release of S8 Edge and i will be another happy 1st day customer again.

Nexus was a great line of devices. We were ok with paying a bit less and understood there were compromises to be made. The only nexus that made 0 compromise was the nexus 6p from 2015 it came with everything you'd expect from a premium device. Great camera, great cpu, great design, great screen, fingerprint reader and front facing speakers. Absolutely top tier with 0 compromise.

It was a bit expensive but totally justified. The pixel on the other hand is not on par with today's premium phone standard. No IP68 or 67, less then stellar design, what's the justification for the huge chin and forehead, no OIS. So we're supposed to pay iPhone prices for the Google assistant?

Makes very little sense to me. The nexus 6p was a more accomplished device than the pixel/xl...

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Kannan.Balasubramanian:
I was planning to get Note 7 but thanks to the exploding issues I couldn't get it and time spent for it went useless.

I have been using Moto G 3(2015) which is almost a stock android experience. What I liked about the stock android appearance, nothing, but was happy that it was almost a pure Android.

So after Note 7 issue I was planning to get Google Pixel. The factors for this decision was, pure Android, faster updates, OLED screen and inbuilt 128GB storage option. But once I had a look at the real phone, I was disappointed. OLED screen was not as bright as I expected. The space between screen and top/bottom edges made the phone look ugly. The only things I liked about it was 128GB option, pure white UI, form factor and weight. The UI is very good and I like it.

Then I had a chance to look at S7 Edge black onyx and I liked it a lot. Since I am galaxy user i know how the AMOLED screen looks and it was always good. But when I heard they launched 128GB Black Pearl version, it clicked. The most important factor was price. Pixel 128GB vs s7 Edge 128GB, the price was nearly 9K INR on higher side.

So I got the S7 Edge 128GB, though I am not a fan of edge screen, I love the phone, more over I was very happy to see that Samsung Theme Store has numerous free themes and it's giving a new experience every day. Topping everything, the Nougat update seems to have performance profiles and other few tweaks which pro users like me use a lot.

For now I am a happy SGS7E user but miss SGN7.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] one-option:
I have tried so many smartphones in my life starting with Nokia & Symbian OS away to Windows Phone, iPhone & for sure Android.

in Android world I have used so many smartphones, I'm kind of person who like's to change his smartphone every while.

I have used Samsung, LG, Sony, HTC, Motorola & Huawei.

to be honest I found out that there is only two Brands provide the best software experience with the best hardware.

1- Samsung: Now I'm using Galaxy S7 Edge the best Android smartphone until this moment according to my opinion.

the UI does provide the best performance with all what you need, great gallery app better than stock one thousand time with private mode ability to hide & protect what ever what you want with password.

such a nice phone book and calling app with great gestures, swipe a contact to call or send an sms, and there is a lot of more things to talk about, those small things does make the difference, not to mention that the phone have one of the best cameras in the market.

2- Sony: Sony provide also clear to stock Android experience with additional touches making a magic, stable & reliable performance.

I have used the Xperia XZ & it was really one of the best smartphones I have ever used, so for those who looking for stock Android nothing better than Sony.

The locked bootloader on the at&t version sucks but the phone overall has been the best phone I've ever held hands down. There's plenty of power and battery for me. My wife wants mine but it's black and she wants a white one. Thought of ordering a white one that can be bootloader unlocked and see how much it would cost to swap the housings so I can unlock the bootloader...with an unlocked bootloader, this is the best thing money can buy
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Reuben_skelz92:
Yeah I had a pixel xl. Nice phone . But not worth all the money...and looks like an iPhone with a massive chin. Having a nexus 6p for a year I found it boring.

I tried the HTC 10 too great phone but poor battery life and screen

I picked up an s7 edge brand new for half the price of a pixel xl and it's the best phone of the year for a reason

Great build

Best screen

Great performance

Best camera

Awesome battery life

Micro sd card

Wireless charging

Water resistant

Even the software is decent now with android N (Still not as buttery smooth as pure android)

Only place it's not great it audio but not many phones are now

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Detect God:
So I recently updated my op3 to 3.5.2 Community Build of oxygen OS. It was working well with a few changes from the official builds but a little time passed and the 3.5.3 Community Build was released. Of course I wanted to update so I downloaded it and tried to update but when it booted into the recovery it froze on the logo. So I downloaded the update on the computer and flashed twrp to the recovery and booted into the recovery and it froze again. Currently i have no Recovery and no access to adb.

*When trying to flash a recovery it says it was done successfully but freezes when trying to boot into it.

Normal OS booting is unaffected.

When executing the command "fastboot boot recovery.img", to boot into the recovery without flashing it i get "(remote dtb not found)" :mad:

When trying to manually update the OS through "fastboot zip Update.zip", I get "(remote: data too large)".

I also tried to do "fastboot erase recovery" before issuing the flash command.

*In trying to fix this i flashed the boot image of 3.5.3 onto the boot partition but nothing happened and now the phone reads as 3.5.3 on 3.5.2 firmware :crying:

I tried to use SkipSoft ToolKit,custom and official twrp, and recoveries such as CWM.

This would probably be better placed into the, ONEPLUS 3 ROMS, KERNELS, RECOVERIES, & OTHER DEVELOPMENT, section but I can not post there yet. If anyone can help me or find a mod that knows about this problem it would be much appreciated.

I also want to point out that the post says "Starting in Q4 with Moto Z and Moto G (4)", which is now. They would probably roll down the list in device age - with some optimism, I would say we would get the update at the latest Q2 of 2017
[X Style (Pure) General] datchico305:
I say in December just like with marshmallow
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
Updates have been pretty much every quarter... Hard to say if we will get 6.0.1 and/or a simple security update this quarter or a full N release... My money is on a simple MM update and N toward end of 1st quarter of 2017.

We will get rumors of a beta, figure it will be 45-60 days after that barring any real issues.
[X Style (Pure) General] datchico305:
I don't really think they will go for 6.0.1 it'll be easier to just release n on there part especially with the employee cuts they made

Yeah, but we probably won't see it here in the US until June 2017
[X Style (Pure) General] HaggisIV:
Getting the 7.1 update is unlikely. Google has said that many of the software features on the pixels (launching with 7.1) will never become available to other devices. If the only difference between 7.0 and 7.1 is these pixel exclusive features, then I don't think we'll be seeing an official update for it.
[X Style (Pure) General] chibichuba:
Generally if you have the 3rd gen Pure you bought the latest Moto X phone. It has a front-facing LED on the top right of the screen, and the back has a metal strip instead of a full one-piece back.
[X Style (Pure) General] Jonathanlc2005:
if it gets 7.0 or 7.1 then to me i doesnt matter.. i just want 3CA enabled
[X Style (Pure) General] Akopps:
You are making a very strange conclusion that 7.1 is supposedly a Pixel-only Android update. I think that's unlikely. To be honest, I don't think we should be reading too much into the statements that google's hype machine is spreading right now. For example, they said Pixel is the first Google smartphone, while in reality Pixel's production was contracted out to a hardware OEM, just like it happened with the Nexus devices, but the only difference right now is that there is a "G" logo on the smartphone, instead of LG or HTC.
[X Style (Pure) General] autosurgeon:
However it is also good to remember that Apple doesn't make phones either. They design them and Foxconn builds them. Similar to Pixel Google designs the hardware and in this case HTC builds them.

Hi. I am a Product Ambassador for Sprint and can confirm that Sprint is an activation partner for Pixel. Let me know if you have any questions.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] schwingep:
A bunch! Current Sprint user - phone payment for current phone will be up in Dec. So looking at options.

1) Will I have to buy the unlocked phone at Google, or does Sprint plan to carry it soon?

2) Project Fi - do I sign up with that through Sprint or through Google?

3) Does that create extra fees? This is what Fi states: $20 unlimited talk/text plan plus $10 per GB of data—so 3GB of data and your total bill would be $50 a month.

3a) So I guess, it might be easier for you to explain the exact process of what will be needed :)

4) Do I get to keep my current #?

Thanks,

- Peter
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mattvalenz:
Hey Peter -

Happy to help.

1) Sprint will not carry Pixel due to Google's choice to go with Verizon as the exclusive carrier storefront for Pixel, however we are an activation partner for the device. So, you would buy the unlocked version of the device from Google and activate it with us if you choose.

You can get a SIM kit from us online here:

https://www.sprint.com/landings/bring-your-own-phone/

2) Project Fi is a Google MVNO service offer, we do not "sell it" though we are a network partner in Fi providing service on the backend along with T-Mobile. More info on the Fi site here:

https://fi.google.com/about/

3) There are no extra fees with Fi. You either get service from Sprint using a Sprint SIM or you get service from Fi using a Fi SIM. If you choose to activate with Sprint you would just use your existing Sprint number. If you choose to activate the service with Fi, you would get a new Fi number of your own unless you choose to port your line to Fi in which case you would no longer have that number with us on Sprint.

3a) Hopefully I have! :)

4) If you wanted to activate your Pixel with Fi, you could port your number over to that service. You would no longer be a subscriber when you port out.

Hope this has been helpful. Please let me know if you have any other questions!

Matt :)

If you continue to still have a SIM issue, please let me know. The SIM card you will need for Pixel is:

Hi hshshawn -

Yes it will as it is the exact same SIM SKU as Nexus 6: CZ2144LWC / 019962040146.

However we still require the SIM to be paired to the device MEID in our billing system so you can't just take the SIM out of your Nexus 6p, insert it into the Pixel and expect it to just activate. You still have to swap the device on sprint.com or through Care or Retail. Let me know if you have any more questions!

Sprint supports Android native Wi-Fi calling. Are you 100% sure that T-Mo supports this on Pixel? It's a Google decision vs a Sprint decision on what they do and do not support in terms of carrier services.

---------- Post added at 05:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:00 AM ----------

The Project Fi SIM works on the Project Fi MVNO network. You will need a Sprint SIM card for Pixel to work on the Sprint network.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mattvalenz:
I looked into this with our Product team and the Wi-Fi calling "support" that VZ and T-Mobile are claiming are most likely tied to voLTE than anything else. Ultimately Google does not support IMS on Pixel which would have enabled Android native Wi-Fi calling on our network.

Hi all,

I'm looking to buy a Lumigon T3. It's not the most known brand in the world, at all. It's been ages since I last rooted a phone so I figured I would ask here.

The phone runs on a Helio x10 CPU (I read somewhere that this is a "closed" processor?). I simply don't recall if each phone/model needs a specific ROM to flash, or if you can "simply root" most phones with a tool.

There are some specs and stuff here (if it makes a difference).
