[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] patrickjquinn:
This....Doesn't boot whatsoever. Maybe remove the download link until you have a verifiably bootable build.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] SamFR:
Yes not boot, it is blocked on boot logo.

Edit :

it Booted with edited ini.environ.rc

Sim card work, but not data
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] tys0n:
Really? Why not provide a log instead of being ungrateful that someone that don't even have this model are trying? How you suggest he will get it booted without help?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] patrickjquinn:
Grow up.

You're really picking a bad day to come at me. Basically its hard to get a damn log when it failed to get past the bootloader. Also he stated that he doesnt have the device and therefore can not verify that it works at all. I simply made the suggestion that he remove the link until one of us can verify that it works otherwise you'll have a deluge of people installing this and soft bricking their phone followed by a million and one complaints.

What is it with XDA, its become worse than YouTube comment sections.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] tys0n:
You got a point to what you're saying. Maybe I missread the reason to why the link should be removed.

I'd say let the link be here. Don't attempt to flash if you don't know how to recover from a soft brick.

Anyway. I'll try to get some kernel logs when I get home, if I got the time.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Original Android Develop] tys0n:
Sorry I don't have logs. I tried the patched one real quick but unfortunatly I need my phone to be working for the moment.

I'd still like to share what I did try. Maybe someone else got more time to log it.

Sim card gets detected and APN is there. It finds my carrier, but can't get signal.

Bluetooth connected to computer, but failed on filetransfer. No crash, only defauld notification that transfer failed.

Wifi worked but I got very slow connection. (Could be any reason and may not be because of rom.)

ADB seems to work and also mtp.

Camera worked for pictures, but failed to connect to camera when I tried to record.

Phone can't wake up screen if it's been laying with screen off for some time.

That's about what I had time to try. Other than that it felt fluent, so thanks!

Here's my logs: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3Crq630YX4zNDVuUy1GMk02TkE

1) My dialer doesnt work, it freeeze when launching, but after the 3rd try, i skipped google setting in the beginning and it works.

2)No mobile network, only emergency calls for 1 sim and no sim for the second slot ( i tried mobile fix but it didn't changed anything)

3) Power off charging - freeeze and only hard reboot (vol down + power for 10 seconds helps)

4) camera - described above

5) Didn't have time to check phone wake up after sleeep, also the same with bluetooth

6) My wi-fi connection is ok

7) UI lagging

Hope it will help you a little

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] feedmeastraycat:
Hi All,

So its been a while since I have been in the rooting game. But I just picked up a fire hd 8 running 5.3.2.1. I checked this via the system updates page in settings.

Now from what I have read and searched so far, it appears that this os version is not rootable. It appears that only 5.3.1. or 5.3.1.1 can be rooted, or if running 5.3.2 it can be downgraded. Otherwise its brick time, see this post.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70556236&postcount=38

So it appears that I am pretty much stuck at the moment, is this correct? At this point I havent even turned on wifi, so its still pure so to speak, and I havent registered with Amazon.

Also failing being able to root, can I remove ads from the lockscreen through another method?

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n3fta:
I've tried factory resetting from recovery and through the rom. In recovery it goes through the factory reset with no errors, but the tablet never actually factory resets. I get the android is upgrading message before it boots into android. The tablet stays on for 3-5 minutes before rebooting. Running stock rom since day one never beet rooted.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
That is weird. If you want you can download stock firmware from sammobile.com, Samsung Universal USB drivers, and Odin3 to reflash the stock ROM again. That should take care of it.

Or...

You can grab gr8nole's TWRP recovery and flash it with Odin, then download one of the modified stock ROMs available and flash it through TWRP. I have a really awesome ROM on here you can try if you'd like. It has all of the best mods from various devs around the forums and is very customizable.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n3fta:
I can't seem to get the device into download mode. No problems getting into recovery.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
Should just be hold Vol-, home, and power from off state.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n3fta:
Ya, it should be that easy but it isn't working for some odd reason. I'm guessing it was an update that caused the issue, it goes to the android is upgrading screen before booting every time the tablet reboots. Any other options for installing another rom without download mode?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RealWelder:
Sorry, was doing some modding and didn't see your post. We need to root it so we can flash recovery using dd commands. I haven't tried this because I rooted with TWRP, but the bootloader is unlocked so try kingroot and see if you can root it. If so, we can install twrp without download mode.

[Nexus 6  General] HipKat:
Battery on my Release Day N6 is dying. Only charges on the Turbo Charge and drains way to fast.

I can move on and the Pixel XL looks like my best option, (I'm not in love wit the Pixel) because the Moto Z Force will never have root and that's a great phone.

OR

My buddy does phone repair and has the heat gun, tools etc and I can swap batteries with another N6 I have that the screen is shattered on. But It'd be a week before I can get to his house :/

Truth is, I'm ready for a new phone. What do YOU guys think, is there one I'm missing that I can love as much as the N6, or just fix mine and hope VZW gets the Zenfone AR if it ever gets released?
[Nexus 6  General] fnudaniel83:
I just got oneplus 3t just for the time being. Honestly, it is one of the best phone for the price. Had honor 8 briefly, but I'm not a fan of EMUI 5.0. plus honor U.S.A is pretty slow rolling out the software update.

Oneplus is pretty fast on updating their software. I mean at the end of the day, Its kinda ridiculous to spend $650 and up for a smartphone nowadays.

Oh and I still have my nexus 6 as my back up, the phone is still getting the job done for my usage.
[Nexus 6  General] garywojdan81:
OnePlus is not an option on Verizon
[Nexus 6  General] bigbaluka:
Nexus 6 batteries are between $12 & $20 on Amazon. That's pretty cheap. I think it's worth the trouble. There's some YouTube videos on changing that battery and it doesn't look too difficult. Plus you have an extra Nexus 6 to practice on if I'm reading the OP correctly.
[Nexus 6  General] HipKat:
That's the way I'm gonna go. I really don't want a Pixel, unless someone finds root for the Droid Z Force or that Asus comes to Verizon
[Nexus 6  General] wabmorgan:
Nexus 6p or buy another Nexus 6
[Nexus 6  General] bigbaluka:
I still love my shamu 64GB I plan on changing my battery whenever it stops holding a charge. All rechargeable batteries have a finite number of times they can be charged before they start acting the way yours is now. Once your battery is replaced with a quality replacement you'll likely be good for a couple of years and shamu is still an awesome device in my opinion. I'm a little apprehensive about changing my own Nexus 6 battery but when the time comes I'm gonna give it a try. Let us know how it goes.
[Nexus 6  General] Arju:
[MENTION=3615140]HipKat[/MENTION] don't go for Nexus 5x or 6p as both suffers from some hardware related bootloop issue. Just go to their respective forums and anyone can have a look at the Q&A section. Not worth the trouble as the phone is bound to randomly die at some point.

If those are your only option and you won't change carrier to get a OnePlus 3T, then I would go for one of the Pixels as they at least has good custom ROM support. If you don't care about custom ROM support then it's up to your preference.
[Nexus 6  General] HipKat:
Believe me, custom development is a HUGE factor and I wouldn't go for an old phone.

[MENTION=5724218]bigbaluka[/MENTION] I watched a few vids and it seems decent. Like I posted, my buddy has all the tools. We work for Dish Network and he's one of the guys that does screen repair and battery replacement for iPhone and Samsung devices. (Don'tr ask me WHY Dish is doing this....)
[Nexus 6  General] mikeprius:
I'm not sure I'd replace the 6 for a 6p or a 5X. I got a 5X and it was more for the size, but I can't say it overperforms the 6 plus there are the potential bootloop issues. The Pixel is OK, but you'll be paying up big time and esp if you are not really keen about it, it's a decent chunk of money to drop down. Sounds like you like your 6, I'd just try and replace the battery since it sounds like that's the only issue. It were different if it was a broken screen or something else, but battery I'd just do that.
[Nexus 6  General] HipKat:
Yeah, agreed. I did 2 things, found a different USB cable, which looks like it solved the charging problem and switched to Dark Rom which seems to have amazing battery life. I think it'll still drain faster until I get the battery switched, so I must have had a few problems going on; bad cable, deteriorating ROM and battery that doesn't hold a charge like It used to
[Nexus 6  General] Fvolfrine:
While my N6 isn't quick as old as yours, I have definitely noticed a lag of late. Taking pictures especially.

And while it might be nowhere near the same class as the N6, I think the Moto G5 Plus might be a good replacement. Sure, the screen size is considerably smaller, it lacks dual front-facing speakers, NFC, etc. but that price! I like the design, and as the kernel source code has already been released, my hope is that the dev community will build some nice roms for this little guy.

We'll see what Motorola does with the true Moto X replacement (not the "Is it a Moto X or is it a Moto E" we are seeing). But that Moto G5 Plus price is hard to ignore.

I just think the Pixel is too expensive. They might solve all of the issues with the release of the Pixel 2, but who wants to spend $1k on a phone?
[Nexus 6  General] runekock:
[MENTION=5969771]Fvolfrine[/MENTION] and others:

Lag when starting the camera is a feature of Android from around KitKat or so. The ram that the camera needs is made available for other use, and then the camera has to wait for it to be released.

It makes other apps faster, but the start of the camera significantly shower. You may agree or disagree with that trade-off, but as far as I know, it's the same on all recent phones. Though of course, it matters less if the phone has a lot of ram.

From what I read, the Moto G5 plus has hardware that is approximately as powerful as the N6. So the only way it can have less lag is if its rom is better optimized - and while that may be the case for the stock roms, the N6 has a large community of devs that provide greatly optimized roms.
[Nexus 6  General] Fvolfrine:
[MENTION=4610285]runekock[/MENTION] - my lag isn't so much when starting the camera as it is when taking a picture. Even with HDR+ turned off, it takes 4-5 seconds for the picture to take. I've had this same experience on stock, and now on PureNexus, which I flashed about five days ago.
[Nexus 6  General] BigDig:
There is no lag when using a custom kernel. Try using a kernel different from stock.
[Nexus 6  General] dondian:
Few weeks ago I wasn't able to turn on wifi any more. After factory reset and cache wipe I got it to turn on few times then it died again. I'm suspecting a hw problem. Now that Dark Rom is available for our phone, I might try my luck with that, but I'm not very optimistic.

I really liked this phone a lot. Now I have the option of getting new motherboard for 50€ or new phone (looking at iPhone 6s Plus or 7 Plus cause of that mega battery and brightness, but that price tho.. Was also looking at Pixel but I read it has too many problems + warranty outside my country).

Is Nexus 6 worth fixing (for 50€ + risk of messing something up during repair)?
[Nexus 6  General] TMG1961:
For 50€ i would take the risk.
[Nexus 6  General] Knightvision:
Used Nexus 6s still went for over US$100 last time I looked at ebay. If fixing one is $20, that seems a decent investment to me. My battery is about worn out so I will be doing just that soon.

If there are ever charging issues or USB cords falling out, check for lint in the USB port. My first N6 had that issue.
[Nexus 6  General] Char_G:
I started having charging issues with my 2 year old shamu a few months ago, getting a new oem charger fixed the problem for me and it's still going strong. I've got a 5x as well, but it doesn't get used much, shamu is a better device.
[Nexus 6  General] GuestK00193:
gonna add my own experience to the mix hoping it would be helpful to some, My N6's battery also started showing signs of a problem few month back after maybe more than a year of usage and it got worse over time. the problem is i cannot get my hand on a new battery anytime soon and i cannot use my N6 as a daily driver as it just dies randomly so i thought i go for the Galaxy S7 since the price was dropped prior to S8 launch and i did, but oh my, going from a heavily developed phone like N6 to S7 is really boring and no fun, might have just got an iphone and it would be just as dull.

so, if you gonna give up your N6 i suggest replace it with another nexus/pixel phone. but if you gonna keep it as a second phone (for whatever reason) then its up to you and your desires and needs, and ofc you cannot forget about the price tag.
