[Pixel C General] 2xbass:
Well, after a lot of consideration I decided to "take the risk" and just placed an order for a 64GB Pixel C and keyboard. Google Canada had a promo going with a $150 discount so I took it. Years ago I used to be a fervent Android phone and tablet user and I said I would never go to Apple. I had Nexus this and that for many years and a Moto 360 and an Android settop box. Eventually I got sucked into the whole Apple ecosystem, first with my Macbook for work, and now I have two Macbooks at work, plus an iPhone, iPad (Pro), Apple Watch, iMac, and Apple TV and I must admit I love them all especially the way things (mostly) handoff across any device such as phone calls.

Despite all this I am still curious about the latest in the Android world and love the idea of the Pixel C hardware and am glad I can get access to the latest OS without waiting on some OEM like Samsung. I use my iPad Pro (12.9) with the Smart Keyboard a lot (and yes the Apple Pencil for annotating music and docs) and love the versatility it provides and yeah I use split screen and video in a pop-out window a lot so it will be interesting to compare Nougat on the Pixel C.
[Pixel C General] Nitemare3219:
I bought a Nexus 10 as soon as they released, just over 4 years ago. I used it extensively for the 1st year, and then afterwards, only a bit here and there. I actually currently have it running a Nougat ROM, but it is quite sluggish nowadays... but for being 4 years old, I can't complain. It was a great device and I certainly got my money's worth, as it's probably the device I have kept and used the longest out of all my electronics.

I just bought a Pixel C on Swappa today as it seemed like the only suitable replacement in terms of build quality, software, and updates. I decided I wouldn't be picking up the keyboard as I didn't see much use for it since I bought the expensive Logitech K810 bluetooth keyboard a long time ago for the Nexus 10. I'm hopeful it's as fast as my Pixel XL in terms of usability, and lasts me another 4 years.
[Pixel C General] 12paq:
Mine just came today! Loving it.

The power button was frozen and hardly worked. I was initially bummed after having a N9 with horrible unraised buttons. But the PCs power button loosened up and now works fine.

The screen is incredible. I work in Hi Res imagery all day and have a Moto X Pure with it's 5.7" quad HD display and 520 ppi pixel density, I was initially worried I would not like the Pixel C's screen. Especially going back and forth at a glance between screens. But the screen is amazing. All the power and speed I need and being an easy rootable Google devices, that has gotten quick updates and I was sold.

Very happy with my choice. Unlocking and rooting it as we speak.

I can't wait to use DSLR Controller app with my Canon 5DS and use the pixel C as a live view camera screen. My N10 and N9 were nice but this Pixel C is incredible. :cool:
[Pixel C General] 2xbass:
So I just got my Pixel C and keyboard today and got it all updated and setup. Initial thoughts:

Hardware, specifically the the combination of the tablet and the keyboard, sure is nice.

Sucks not having a fingerprint reader.

Tried the multiwindow thing using Taskbar. A bit klugey but definitely promising. Unfortunately mostly unusable for me as a number of the critical apps I use (including Google Inbox) refuse to do multiwindow even with the "force resizing" developer setting enabled. I'd really like to see this working for real. At least the split screen is pretty usable although a pity no popout video windows like on iOS.

It's pretty snappy but still no match for my iPad Pro in general response. Feels a bit sluggish by comparison.

I expect the main use case for me will be as smaller alternative to my iPad Pro 12.9 and for carrying around the office for Google Docs, Slack, e-mail, and Hangouts, where we use Google apps for most things.

Since this is a Google device I look forward to some reasonable life out of with many more OS updates to come.
[Pixel C General] 2xbass:
Just wanted to add that I was wrong about some apps not working on forced floating window mode using Taskbar. I clearly had launched some of these full-screen previously and that's why they continued to launch full-screen. I've been using Nova but will try just using Taskbar for a while. In general though I'm finding the split-screen mode pretty usable and especially handy with the keyboard shortcuts to get to things I often use like the browser, calendar, etc. I I only wish these shortcuts were customizable. For example, I don't use Gmail for my work e-mail but use Inbox instead but the keyboard shortcut will only launch Gmail.

Update: Floating windows using Taskbar is still a bit unpredictable so it's back to Nova and split-screen when needed. Remix doesn't really look like it's worth trying. It would be great if Google could really get floating windows (including video) baked into a future release.

One of the few things I can't do with my Pixel C around the office, compared to my Macbook, is screenshare in a Hangout. Unfortunately Hangouts on Android doesn't support any kind of screenshare even from Google Docs which is a shame.

Omniswitch recents on Dirty Unicorn's 7.1.1 01-06-17 build for the Pixel C, really adds another dimension for multitasking. DU runs well and is definitely a daily driver.
[Pixel C General] Skullpuck:
It's finny to come across this thread today. I too had a Nexus 10 that just died. The ribbons that connected on the back of the battery broke.

I decided to pick up a Pixel C but in the process I was told of another alternative. The Lenovo Yoga Book.

I've had my Pixel C for about a week now and it is a great device. An excellent replacement for the Nexus 10. However, I'm hearing greater things about the Lenovo, so much so that I may end up returning the Pixel in favor of keeping the Yoga Book.

Yes, the Yoga Book doesn't have the same powerful CPU/GPU as the Pixel C nor does it have the brand behind it. But the keyboard/drawing/writing board that comes with it is fantastic apparently. It also has a microSD slot, Dolby Digital audio, a miniHDMI port (shame on you Google for not including this in the Pixel), considerably better Wifi, and a SIM card option. The Pixel C has none of these things.

It's supposed to be in the mail tomorrow so I'll have a rare opportunity to compare both tablets while in my possession. Perhaps I'll make a video about it. The least I can do is post back here about my findings.
[Pixel C General] dmbfan13:
I'm also very curious about the yoga book. Please post your comparisons.
[Pixel C General] Skullpuck:
So I've had the Yoga Book for about a day and have come to some conclusions about both devices. Generally speaking, the Pixel C is a much more hardware oriented device. It has a much better CPU, GPU. But that's where the pros stop for me. Out of curiosity I ran the AnTuTu 3DBench on both devices. Where the Pixel C came back with something like 30-45 FPS the Book only received between 10-15 FPS. The Yoga Book is not a hardcore gaming machine. The thing is, I don't use these devices primarily for gaming. If that's what you want to do then the Pixel C is what you want. If that isn't what you want to do and productivity is more important to you then please read on.

Here is what the Pixel C has that the Yoga Book does not have: CPU power, GPU power, durability, brand power,

Here is what the Yoga Book has that the Pixel C does not: A light up LED touch sensitive keyboard that quickly turns into a note taking drawing tablet (this includes the special pen that comes with it and the paper), microHDMI slot, SIM card slot, 4GB ram, lightweight, easily folds in half to hold itself up for Netflix/YouTube viewing sessions, multiple apps running at the same time, "windows" for each app so you can work with 2 or 3 apps on the screen at the same time, Dolby Digital sound (I never thought I would hear this quality of sound come out of a tablet, it's very good and I'm an audiophile. It doesn't beat out my 7.1 surround theater but in a pinch it does deliver 5.1 surround audio in a very unique way), speaking of sound the Pixel C is terrible in this capacity; either I got a bad device or the Pixel C has worse sound than the Nexus 10, your purchase comes with a free "sleeve" to carry your book in if you purchase from lenovo.

Needless to say I'm keeping the Yoga Book and sending back the Pixel C. Probably not going to win me any friends here but I wanted to be truthful. Don't get me wrong, the Pixel C is a great device... if I were to purchase it 6 to 12 months ago. With the new devices on their way up and nothing in the way of innovation going on I cannot recommend one. It's basically just an updated Nexus 10 with newer CPU/GPU and fewer ports.

The Yoga Book is innovative and useful. I am currently using it at work to administer 122 computers in 3 locations. I then take it into a meeting and write notes onto it which then transcribe to text. Saving everything I wrote into journals. Then bring it back to my desk, flip it up and watch Netflix.

If you want me to take pictures or if you have any questions let me know I'll respond for the next 24 hours or so.

Try to search, I didn't save the link:(
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DBLX1:
I'm on 7.1.1 on my 6P. I would like a rom that gives me the Pixel XL features such as the launcher and AI. Also, should I use the stock kernel? I'm not sure what the different kernels offer above stock...

If I root, will I lose the ability to use android pay? I would like to keep that option.

Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrK1NG:
Pure Nexus will give you the full pixel experience. Try it from here. I would recommend installing gApps from their own website since a lot more options are available depending on how much and what you actually want from Google. I tend to keep it lightweight. With Aroma pack you can choose exactly what you want. (remember arm64) Also, make sure to do a clean flash. If you want Assistent and it isn't already there, you want to root your phone and look up a guide to edit the build.prop

EDIT: As to the kernel, I use ElementalX. It has worked well for me. Bonus, if you buy the Ex kernel Manager app, you can run tweaks and mods to the CPU and stuff to get better performance and/or battery life. I currently get 7 hrs of SOT which is pretty good. You could look into governor profiles if you're interested but don't want to do the laborious work of tweaking and testing (I recommend hawktail1.2).

EDIT2: And yes, I believe as it stands, rooting will cause you to lose android pay, but I am not informed in that matter since I pretty much never use it. Look into it.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhs39:
I prefer Cortex Rom to Pure Nexus and have used both. Use ElementalEx Kernel instead of stock. I can't answer the question about Android Pay. My understanding is that its a pain in the butt to keep that working if you are rooted but I've never used the service.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaufikauf:
Ive tried a lot of roms,

and i have to say the best one was pure nexus.

The others are not so smooth than pn. But in pn there are not much build-in features.

Most annoying thing is that it doesnt come pre-rooted (have to flash the SuperSu zip).

Ill wait for Lineage Os and hope it will come to old quality (cyanogenmod a few years ago).
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhs39:
Apparently if you remove SuperSU and install Magisc (am I spelling that wrong?) with PhilzSu you can use Android Pay on Cortez. Since Cortex comes pre rooted with SuperSU you need to uninstall it first.

---------- Post added at 08:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 PM ----------

I was on Pure Nexus and would either install Cortex (my recomendation) or MegaPixel if you want Pixel features. Both are superior to Pure Nexus in my opinion.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] burningcreation:
I just wish I could use Pure Nexus rooted and still play Pokemon Go. I haven't found a way to achieve this yet.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dontbeweakvato:
Everybody just wants the answer

Here it is in no particular order:

A. Pure Nexus

B. Resurrection Remix

C. Dirty Unicorns (my all time fav thru the eons)

They all have awesome roms that have their own 'stock' kernel. Dirty Unicorn actually hand built their own kernel and it is truly badass. I've got the best screen on time from DU.

There are other roms that are great, but these are the most famous (cause they're really damn good).

One of my favorite features of custom kernels for the 6p is screen calibration. I noticed funny Hues of the white, pink Hues and yellow Hues. All that was easily fixed and made it look more like a Note 5 display.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DBLX1:
If I understand correctly, PN is probably the smoothest and Android pay is functional?

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] dimm0k:
wondering if anyone here is using Magisk and SuperSU and was able to get their LGV20 to pass SafetyNet? for some reason using the same exact steps as others who have this combination working on different devices, I can't get it to pass on the LGV20 and I have a feeling it might be due to the stock kernel. I wasn't able to get this to work on the LGV10 either and neither did the "Device Unlock" app provided by T-Mobile to perform a SIM unlock until I reverted back to a stock boot image.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Artimis:
Would be super interested to know this as well. Been researching this on and off all day. I read somewhere that there are modifications to kernels that can be made to report things back to Safety Net and not sure if any of the custom V20 kernels have this or not.

Was also looking into suhide as an option as well
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Artimis:
All credit goes to [MENTION=5075329]ZachJohnson[/MENTION] for this after seeing his posted here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70426738&postcount=1131

I downloaded the rootswitch app and using only that, I was able to pass SafetyNet checks and register my credit card with Android Pay. It was very hit and miss though.....took a number of tries. I have yet to make a purchase.

I should note that I have not downloaded suhide yet and wonder if that will help make it more consistent.

For reference, I am using a VS995 unlocked via dirty santa on a stock verizon 11A rom + konverged kernel. I have made small tweaks to /system such as modifying some sounds and disabling some apks via renaming them apk.bak.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ZachJohnson:
That's awesome! I'm glad to hear that helped! ?

To elaborate a little... I was only trying to play Pokémon Go, I've never tried using Android pay. As I mentioned in that post you linked to, I stumbled across the Root Switch app.

Prior to that, I had flashed suhide and installed the accompanying suhide gui from the play store and it didn't seem to do anything for me. With suhide already flashed, I found Root Switch to work perfectly.

And in case it's relevant for anybody looking into this, I rooted with Dirty Santa on my VS995, flashed the US996 rom and konverged kernel, and am now running the VS995 modded NotSoStock rom with its kernel and this worked for me on all three.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] mnishamk:
I was on Oos 3.1.2 And tried flashing the firware and modem of 3.5.5. Ended up being unable to restart (black screen) or get into recovery (black screen again). So I flashed official one plus recovery, Now I could get into recovery. My plan was to download stock and then flash that.

After I downloaded stock, I tried to boot the device and was greeted with a low battery warning, knowing that I couldn't charge it any other way, I tried to boot into recovery any way, Got as far as the selection screen before battery ran out and the phone died.

Now it doesn't charge when plugged in either. So how do I charge this device?

Edit : flashed TWRP 3.2.2-22 got into recovery. Flashed 3.1.2 firmware and modem. Restored nandroid backup and booted into os

Hi guys,so like the title said I accidently broke my xperia glass back, tried the baromètre test ;went up then down and... It stayed slightly up when I pushed harder

I ALSO downloaded ''xperia water resistance test'' app which said that my phone should be waterproof

--1020.73hpa--

Min:1020.73 max:1021.87

Test results: congratulations, your device is probably water resistant.

So guys please explain to me if it is safe to use my device underwater for pictures.
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erik.051:
I wouldn't say so, the app isn't able to know wether your glass panel is ok or not it can only look if the IP rating says that it is waterproof. In my opinion the water can get through the cracks into the device but I think if they are small you need a bit of presure to let this happen. The only way to test if it is waterproof anymore is to drown it but I wouldn't recommend this:(
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LegalShare:
As far as I know the back glass is glued to the back of the phone but has no impact of its water resistance.

You can get a good indication of the mobile's water resistance using the inner pressure sensor I red somewhere. It can be accessed via service menu. The app you mentioned does exactly that. Idea is, that if the phone is water resistant the inner pressure should rise if the phone screen gets some pressure and only come down slowly to the normal (outside) pressure.

So if course you never can be sure but if you used the app as intended you get the best indication for the water resistance you can get.

Hello XDA, I'd like to share an awesome product I found and use daily since getting. The CHOETECH Quick Charge 3.0 90W [QC 3.0 X 5] Fast USB Charging Station. I got this charging station to use behind my couch, I also got some longer USB cables so now me and the family can charge devices while still using them. This is actually the 3rd Choetech product I've bought and the quality has been impressive on all 3. Along with good pricing I now look for choetech products first on Amazon. The unit itself is a little larger than I originally thought it would be but not overbearing by an means, it has a nice rubber bottom to keep it from sliding around on a table or desk surface, it also has an on/off switch which I like. All 5 ports are QC 3.0 and are backwards compatible with QC 2.0 and also charge standard devices as well. Overall I'm very happy with this product and wanted to share my experience. Devices I've used on this are,

HTC 10, LG G4, nexus 7 2012, cheap off brand tablet, Xbox 360 controller and even powered my raspberry pi3.

Well, this is my first post and I do it for if someone needed (like me). I bougth a Moto G4 Plus (XT1641), upgrade it to Android 7.0 soak test but I don't unlock bootloader. So, I was stuck on soak test, with no OTA's update and no way to back to MM. Until I found this.

I tried and it's working.

Requirements:

The same if like you go to flash a firmware official trough fastboot.

The rom

Steps:

1.- Download ROM file and unrar.

2.- Reboot to Fastboot mode.

3.- Plug your phone to PC.

4.- Execute the script in the ROM folder, there's a file called "flashall.bat", run it.

5.- Wait up to the device reboot normally, it boot with a new bootanimation and we are on Android 7.0 Official (build: NPJ25.93-11).
