Long live the 6p! :)

You. Are. Going. To. LOVE IT.

Well said. The purpose to was indeed to share the love for this device but also to see if any 'counter arguments' could perhaps sway us. We've no room for haters :)
[Nexus 6P General] jejb:
I really like my 6P. It's a snappy device that I enjoy owning. But I did like my short lived experience with my Note 7 too. I really enjoyed and used the stylus. But it was a tad laggy.

My major dislike about the 6P is the weak signal. When I take our RV to our normal camp area, I can't use it for a hotspot with our cell booster. I have to switch back to my old Samsung S5, which works very well in that capacity. I have to do that several times a year, so it's frustrating.

I looked hard at a lot of other devices when I had to return the Note 7. I can't find anything else that entices me away from my 6P. But I would still own the Note 7 if they hadn't recalled them.
[Nexus 6P General] megalosdog:
Nah, the s7 has nice hardware, but the software is piss poor in looks and performance.

Never tried the op3.
[Nexus 6P General] albertogdr:
I think I'll buy a Huawei Mate 8, it has similar price to Nexus 6 and (most of the time) no heat problem, no battery drain problem, more battery life.. but android stock and the great audio of Nexus 6p makes the choice hard for me.

ZTE Axon 7 has a too weak mod community compared to the 6p or Mate 8..
[Nexus 6P General] intruda119:
Wouldn't own my Nexus 6p if i didn't recently crack my mate 8. Hard going back to normal battery after using Huawei mates.

Audio is night and day though. Probably one of the best single speakers.
[Nexus 6P General] Johnny Wong:
I paid $375 for the 64gb version of this phone. For what it does and for what I paid for, damn straight I am a fanboy! If I thought the Pixel was worth the money, I would spend it. It's not like buying a house, there's no real investment on this. But I'll put that money into a new DJI Maverick because that's money better spent. At the end of the day, it's just a phone. I only care about being able to capture moments with my phone and the 6P does a great job especially in low light!
[Nexus 6P General] Janerd:
The only issue that exist with this phone is

1) the screen doesn't get very bright and overall doesn't seem as nice as other OLED screen.

2) this is personal but the bad place of the mic, it gets blocked easily when I have to be using both hands and have no Bluetooth.

Place it between ur ear and shoulder and the mic gets blocked.

Apart from that, it's crazy to have this phone n upgrade to the pixel or anything else. Maybe next year but not this year.
[Nexus 6P General] Prattham:
I totally agree with tge 2nd point lol happened to me last night only and it was so frustrating ????
[Nexus 6P General] jaytv:
This phone has far exceeded all my expectations. It is also with easy hacks, 90 percent of the Pixel XL, and I know, a close friend has one that I've had access to. This will last me perfectly till next year when the Pixel 2 comes out. I shudder to think that El Goog has in store for that one, going up against the 10th Anniversary iPhone.
[Nexus 6P General] jxcorex28:
More than happy with the nexus 6p...I'll have it for another 3 or so years,which they'll probably have Pixel Super Deluxe with a TB of storage space and a super sharp camera...my only complaint is that it kind of sucks when looking at the screen in direct sunlight, but adaptive brightness usually kicks in...can be slow at times...However, I am 110% happy with the 6P...
[Nexus 6P General] 12MaNy:
I believe the LG V20 blows the 6p out of the water. I love my N6p......but it's time for something new. After owning 4 Nexus phones and half a dozen Samsung phones........I think it's time to try LG.
[Nexus 6P General] jejb:
The reviews I've seen so far are pretty bland on the V20 overall. I don't really see anywhere that it "blows the 6p out of the water", except for replaceable battery and expandable memory. But that's all in the eyes of the beholder, I guess.
[Nexus 6P General] TheIgster:
I'll never own another LG phone again after my experience with the G3. Hated...like really, hated, the screen. Just so dull and lifeless. Any phone I get now has to have an amoled screen. 6P's screen is awesome.
[Nexus 6P General] Arcide:
Why is it time for something new?

It's been only a year, not like it's become old junk, lol.
[Nexus 6P General] hacksome:
OnePlus 3 T is getting released on November 15. It is coming with a Snapdragon 821 chipset.
[Nexus 6P General] ludovicien:
Yes, this tempts me to jump ship as I am happy with every aspect of the 6p except the headphone output and I have very fond memories of my old Oneplus One's headphones performance.

It looks like the 3T will have a bigger battery than the standard model and a camera that can match or best the 6p. But while I think you're certain to get it over there in India I'm not sure it will launch immediately in Europe.
[Nexus 6P General] info[]box1:
The Snapdragon 810 is over extremely looked. Otco-core pumping out 2200mhz is outstanding when you do the math.

* I may be off a bit ie mhz
[Nexus 6P General] Veidas:
4 cores 2ghz, 4 slow ones 1.5. Everything would be fine, but it can "pump" at those speeds for 2minutes max, before starting to throttle. Anyways, atleast for me, its only noticiable in heavy gaming
[Nexus 6P General] TheIgster:
Which a lot of members most likely don't even do here. I don't. I'm sure there are others. I'm not a "gamer". I use my phone for calls, texts, other messaging, social media and email. I've never seen or felt my phone "throttle" performance. So as a non-gamer, the 6P and the 810 is just fine. No issues here at all.
[Nexus 6P General] ps000000:
Sometime I am looking at Galaxy S7 (it has nice camera), but Galaxy S8 will come in late Feb. 2017 :p.
[Nexus 6P General] jayesh:
Until it throttles itself to death and is slower than the 801.
[Nexus 6P General] Techvir:
This is what I want.... http://www.highsnobiety.com/2016/10/30/xiaomi-mi-mix-smartphone/

If google releases something like this, people will go crazy
[Nexus 6P General] tropical cactus:
Agreed.

The thing that really puts me off are OEM skins. When it comes to interface, the only OEM that does a good job is HTC but that's because they've been at it for a long time. Sense doesn't come across as having something to prove and over the top. Looking at mix, the only thing appealing is the hardware design. Not too sure about the rest of it.

It's only been a couple of weeks since I got the the 6P and Hwawei is giving a few away in a lucky draw if you buy any of their current phones. I tried the lot and they all seem cartoonish when compared to the 6P. I bought this phone because it was a Nexus, not because it was manufactured by Hwawei.

My only gripe is the front facing speakers. It doesn't have the magic of the M7 from years ago, IMHO. I've tried playing with the sound with EX kernel manager and I have Leviticus 1.3 sound mod installed on 7.1.1.

Other than that, I love everything about this phone.

Cheers.

Edit: kernel manager conflicts with sound mod, so uninstalled.
[Nexus 6P General] Veidas:
No, dont think so. Its just a hype for now, people dont understand real problems with this design. A lot of accidental touches happen, need very good software to recognize it. Then theres the speaker problem, they used very clever technology, but its not perfect, sound is very flat and not really loud enough. And most importantly, there are already videos where people explain that phone dropped like from 1 or 2 ft high and screen is already shattered because of no bezel and all impact on screen. And to top it off, its almost unrepairable, because of the design decisions they had to take to achieve this. Im pretty sure i would find more issues if i could get my hands on this, anyway, its a neat idea, but for now its just hype, in real world it wouldnt be a succesful model, not at this time and technology atleast.
[Nexus 6P General] Techvir:
I think otherwise.. There are lots of rumors of similar design phone coming out including samsung and apple.

I think this is the future.. I agree that the phone is not fully ready yet but within an year we will a significant improvement..

Xiaomi brought it out a little too quick..Obviously they wanted to be the first...

First thing - this is

not

the Slate Pro 8! I can't find any useful information on if it's possible to root the Pro Slate 8 or how to do it. I have seen a couple of mentions of attempting with 'King Root' and 'Kinger Root', but I've also seen discussion about the uncertainty of their safety and security - and I haven't seen any confirmation that either app will work on the device. Are there any relatively safe and viable methods to attempting an 'unspecific' root on a device like mine?

The device is currently running 5.1.1.

Can anyone tell me best guide for creating TWRP for mtk 6797 helio x20 ? I'm not able to find any guide regarding it? Sorry for my bad English...! Thanks in advance.!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunswick:
hello

dropped my N6 on to a marble floor, the screen is black and touch is not responding. the phone seems to be working otherwise. usb debugging is off, the phone is fully stock (stock recovery, bootloader is locked, encryption is the marshmellow default, phone is not rooted). There is no lockscreen pin or pattern, just the standard slide to unlock. photos are not auto-backed up online, so I need access to the phone itself.

when I plug the phone into my computer, I cannot file explore it because I need to enable a prompt on the phone to MTP instead of charge only. as USB debug if off I cannot use ADP PULL / SDCARD.

I have two ideas:

1) use Wug's nexus root toolkit and do something there like put TWRP on, and then use TWRP to avoid the USB debug being off. I'm not sure on the details of this though! Any guide on the steps here? the power and volume hardware keys work, so in theory I can get into recovery with the right steps.

2) get a micro-usb hub, and plug in a wired mouse as well as connect to my computer, then blindly click about hoping that I enable MTP or USB debugging. I can then either copy files off in windows explorer or use Vysor to control the phone over ADB and email files etc as needed. Would this work? I don't have a hub so would need to spend £5-10 buying one

Many thanks in advance for any help! :cool:

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] peteter:
Hi all,

I have read all the threads about DPI-changes but couldn't find a definite answer. Currently i am on firmware 1.95.401.4, build.prop says

ro.sf.lcd_density=640

(see screenshot) using Dev-Check it says dpi is 571.

I played around with DPI values a little and found that changing to a value lower than 530 the button in the camera will slide to the left, or in the screenshot downwards (see second screenshot, DPI is 471).

There are some other threads about changing DPI values which say the htc lockscreen will 'break', i did not encounter this problem, besides the button in camera i had no problems.

Long story short, my questions,

why is there the difference between those two values, what am i getting wrong?

(build.prop vs Dev-Check)

anyone encounterd other problems beside camera button by changing DPI to a value lower than 530?

if you have changed the DPI, what is your current value?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] RogerF81:
Dev Check just calculates the correct DPI for your device. But HTC just set another (higher) DPI, because then more icons can be displayed.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] stretchnz:
Might not be much use but I believe Nougat / Android 7 supports different DPI scaling (much anticipated feature!)
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] kingofdirt:
I want to change my DPI to lower then 530, but the camera button problem bugs me, it still appears in the latest HTC camera 8.50.917991.

Is there a workaround or different camera apk for this issue? I am not rooted and on Nougat.

Thanks
[ZenFone 2 General] KuntalBiswas:
Please help, I've made the mistake of applying the marshmallow update file, while using the TWRP recovery. It was stuck on writing splashscreen, for around 2hrs. I thought about restarting the device to restore a previous backup image. That is when the screen turned off for good. No matter what i tried, I could not boot into recovery, or even fastboot. I've tried the key combinations, adb, but nothing seems to bring this up to life. Please tell me how to flash the stock zip, I don't care about the data in the phone at this point.

Firmware versions up to 2.x require you to use SuperSU 2.49. Firmware 3.x on the other hand only works with SuperSU 2.64 or 2.65. (I'm talking about the flashable zips. Updating via play store afterwards is absolutely no problem.)

Why would you want cwm? TWRP is way better. Oh and your recovery is gone. You can be lucky that you didn't brick your phone. Next time, use TWRP instead and ONLY if you have the ability to restore everything with a PC. ONLY make such hard modifications to your phone if you have a PC nearby

Ok, I suspect something may be wrong with your root or TWRP or ROM, which may be the reason for the odd problems.

Does anyone know how to use jio SIM on tab 3 7 or how to active engineering mode
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] segin:
Reliance Jio is a CDMA/LTE operator. They do not have GSM or UMTS towers. Only CDMA and LTE devices can work on their network.

You will need either a CDMA capable Galaxy Tab 3 variant (SM-T217S, specifically designed for Sprint in United States and will generally be SIM locked), or an LTE-capable variant supporting India's LTE bands.

Jio does not offer GSM or UMTS services. If your Galaxy Tab 3 variant is a 3G/GSM variant, it can never work with Jio.

As an addendum, you won't be able to use SMS with Jio if you use a compatible LTE device that isn't also CDMA. GSM-based LTE devices can only send SMS over LTE when connected to LTE operators that upgraded from GSM and UMTS, or if both the network and device support VoLTE.

2. Will my phone lock to T-mobile network after update ? What If I flash some custom Marshmallow ROM, will it still lock ?

3. If it is locked or something bad happens, can I safely restore the TWRP back up I created ?

Please help me

Thanks

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trex888:
You cant flash via twrp

First you have to flash 6.0.1 full stock firmware via odin to get marshmallow bootloader/baseband.

And dont worry it will not sim lock the device

After that you can flash twrp and flash any 6.0.1 custom rom

Keep in mind once you flash lollipop or marshmallow you cannot go back to kitkat. Your bootloader will be locked and impossible to run kitkat again.

And also your twrp backup of kitkat will no longer work.

I suggest you stick with kitkat cuz it's best for note 4 till date.many users are pulling their hair to go back but they can't. Marshmallow is good in performance but kitkat is best in battery life and speed.
