[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] t1.8matt:
Does anyone know how to stop the Weather Alerts from popping up on the G6? I can't figure out how to stop them. We've been getting storms for the past 2 days and they keep popping up on my phone and it's pretty annoying.
[T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers] suhridkhan:
Did you install any additional 3rd party weather app? I didn't think the LG weather app does weather alert.

If you want to get rid of the weather app, you can just uninstall it from Settings>Apps. See if the alert continues.

What's your opinion of this phone now that it's been out for more than six months?

Build quality, development, etc.

Compared to previous phones or compared to whatever your expectations might have been.

Me?

I'm sorry to say that I wish I never left my Moto X Pure with BrokenOS' MarshMallow ROM.

Pixel is great though, in many ways.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] PrimeMinister91:
It was a much needed update from my aging Nexus 6.

Was briefly contemplating iPhone, but stuck with the Pixel.

Overall, I love the camera, the battery is a champ, and so far I feel no need or want to modify the device.

I think google did well with this one.

Let's hope LG doesn't botch the next one.

It's the cherry ? bomb. Like all my Google phones.

Unprecedented battery life.

Fast as Lightning (Especially w/sdcardfs)

No cracks or damage.

Best reception I have ever had.

Extremely challenging to hack. Very easy once you have the slots and Google stops playing games. Lol

Speaker sucks. But I can live with it.

Never have and never will buy anything but a Google phone.

I can go on and on.....

BTW Moto Rocks!

I came from an S5 so anything would have been an upgrade for me. So this thing is screaming fast to me
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ChrisAC84:
I bought the phone after I had to send my Note 7 back. I liked it, but didn't keep it long. I've been through a few different phones in the meantime, but finally came back. It's faster than any phone I've used, and still feels really solid, and good in the hand
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] iamjimmy:
I came from a N6 as well. I miss the stereo speakers and the bigger screen size of the N6.

The positives of Pixel are the speed, battery life and the general smoothness of the phone.

The cons are pathetic speakers (What was google thinking?), huge bezels (which I find hard to digest coming from a lesser bezel N6) and the lack of development. On my N6 I had flashed almost 10 custom ROMs at different times.

There is hardly much choice for Pixel XL other than a handful ROMs. Perhaps the high price of the phone and the slot rigmarole turns off developers here.

I'm happy with the Pixel , but it was close to $900 and I just feel that I did not get my money's worth. That said, I can't deal with non-Google phones. Was thinking about a One Plus 5, but that's about it. Hopefully Google does something nicer with Pixel XL2.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] liam_davenport:
I love stock Android and EAS is the best thing to happen to Android but..

Just can't justify the price for what you get. I'm a big Audio guy and the speaker is worst I've heard along with 3.5mm jack just sounds awful..

have to run an External DAC to make up for the poor quality

Video recording seems a bit meh blury/grainy no matter what I can't take a clear video unless it's in direct sunlight and then have to deal with the *Lense Flare* another pain in the ass

Rest of the phone is good

Development it's pretty much none existent seems like if you want roms/kernel's either stick with a 6P or OnePlus/Other China device

But I feel like it should of been priced at same as the 6P $440 we only got minor improvements nothing "WOW" to make up for the $300 extra..

I guess we paid for that "Made By Google" bs marketing. Also was never in stock anywhere + the hardware issues drove people away lets hope HTC isn't making again so we can have a great launch and hopefully bring people back :good:

I do miss the value days of the Nexus program. Minus Shamu of course. That was expensive. When I bought those Nexus, I felt like I was getting an incredible value for a smartphone.

Here is something I truly value and want everyone to think about.

How much is it worth to us for,

Monthly security updates

Major OS upgrades for two years

Bugfixes along the way
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] 3aucla1r3:
I'll tell you by saying what I've chosen as my daily driver and where my SIM card is and what's in my pocket right now. I've had marlin since Nov '16 and iPhone 7 plus since Jan '17. The marlin is in my pocket right now. The iPhone 7 plus is a great device (iMessages, waterproof) but the reason I love android is the ability to modify (stock or ROM-root-kernel) and access to that SD Card. Otherwise the 2 are pretty much equal as to camera, battery, speed, smoothness, response to touches, etc. at least in my perception. So, obviously I'm very pleased with marlin since I prefer it to a very popular alternative. Had a Samsung Galaxy S7 in early 2016 but sold it after 2 months, Pixel much better device to me.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jtwlbz:
Agreed 100%. Thats why i skipped this one looking forward to the next one. For the price it must have stereo speaker, better audio, water resist, better design and quality. Oh and wireless charging. Then i will jump right in.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ithehappy:
Six month user here. And my main complaint for the Pixel remains exactly same as it was back when I bought it. The

sudden freezing

problem. Just out of nowhere the screen freezes for a second or two, if I am playing a game, then its done, simply over, have to restart, and I can't express how much I hate that. Of course its most noticeable/affecting while gaming, but it happens basically everywhere too, but just less frustrating in other places.

I was advised to format the phone, not root it and blah blah but exact same happened there too, without installing any apps at all! Ridiculous problem and IMHO the most annoying issue Pixels have.

Other than this, I don't know, sometimes the low light photos come with a really weird greenish cast, completely off coloured and way too much noise (yeah with HDR+ On, that's the only one I use anyway) etc.

But other than these two, I have no complaints. Tremendous call quality, more than acceptable display (though still no Apple!), excellent GPS (though Google Maps says to calibrate compass every now and then), buttery smooth interface all around most times, at max volume the loudspeaker is excellent (though at half volume it can't be heard and equally ****e!), really low SAR value etc., I am contemplating the U11 now, just for the sound and camera, but if I don't go that route I am gonna keep this phone for at least two years, and the maximum I have ever used a mobile phone was for 15 months, the Galaxy S2 back in the days, should suffice what I think about this phone.

I also have the OnePlus 3 in office, and I know some people compare it and I can say its basically Guava vs Apples comparison.

PS: Sorry didn't comment about development, but I honestly don't care much about it at all. I bought the Pixel so that I won't be needing the optimise it, let Google optimise it for me, and they did a fairly decent job, but after using Franco kernel I can say Google could have done a much better job. So that's all I need, a custom kernel.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] fatapia:
coming from Samsung and LG devices, this phone has been a breath of fresh air even with this new partition scheme. Phone does well, battery life holds up for two days. I just have an issue with bluetooth not consistently sending music info to my radio. Some days it works, other days it's like what music info...
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] admiralspeedy:
It's great and definitely a worthy upgrade from my Nexus 6. The only thing I miss is the front facing speakers but I didn't use them much anyways, well that and I guess it's way more slippery than my Nexus 6 because I don't use cases at all.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] dhaugru:
Couldn't be happier. Presently have a 7 Plus and the XL that I swap my sim between. IPhone is great in many ways but I just keep coming back to the Pixel XL....something about the experience I get using it that I really enjoy.

As for the other characteristics of the device others have already commented. I purchased mine at launch and received it later October.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] chevycam94:
I currently have the Nexus 6P. Damn that is a nice phone! I'm seriously doubting anything will "crush" this phones performance. But I decided I wanted to move up to the Pixel XL. I'm a decent Android gamer, so the updated GPU was nice. Plus, the camera is supposedly just that much better. Among other things, like 4GB RAM instead of the 6P's 3GB.

I don't receive the Pixel XL until Monday, so I'm wearing a path through my foyer, pacing back and forth, waiting for it to arrive.

I've spent at LEAST 30 hours this week doing research on the Pixel, its partition layout, how to get root to work, TWRP limitations, etc. This is certainly more complicated than the 6P.

Part of the reason I decided to plop down for the Pixel, was because I didn't see a lot of development going for it, as there is for the 6P. And since people seem to like my ROMs, I figured I'd toss something out there that I made, and see what kind of life it can breathe into the Pixel.

I think I'll like it. Tried it out in-hand at BestBuy yesterday. Solid device, great screen, color accuracy is actually better than the 6P, and for the first time, I kind of like the phone WITHOUT a case! Never though I'd say that.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] rickysidhu_:
I've used iPhones since the 3GS up until the 6S Plus (all jailbroken). I decided to try out the Nexus 6P (first ever Android phone) and fell in love with it! Custom ROMs, kernels, tweaks, Xposed, etc. were all new to me and I loved every bit of it!

However, for some reason, I decided to sell it and pick up an iPhone 7 Plus when it released. As iOS matured, security got tighter, and jailbreaking became more difficult. I got tired of waiting for a jailbreak to release and realized how locked down the OS is (when not jailbroken) compared to Android.

I sold my 7 Plus and bought this Pixel XL. I wasn't a huge fan at first, just because of the confusion with the slots and the lack of development​ compared to the 6P.

Now that there is more development and that I understand the slots better, I'm really enjoying this phone!

Overall, if I had the choice, I would still probably pick the 6P over this; that thing was just a beauty in basically every aspect, and it was the phone that first introduced me into the Android world.

Not a huge fan of the single downfiring speaker or the bottom chin, but otherwise it's a great phone, especially the camera!

I'm going to see what the OnePlus 5 has to offer, and may switch to that - but I'll definitely keep this XL around until the 2nd gen Pixels release. I'll be purchasing the second gen Pixels only if Google allows them to be development friendly like how the Nexus line was. If not, I may make a permanent switch over to the OnePlus line.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] yung40oz84:
Well I had the LG G6, S8+, and I sent the G6 back and sold the S8+. The pixel was snappier than both, better camera than both which is a great feature having and outstanding camera, and more reliable than both. I like stock Android, clean, fast, stable. I like being able to unlock and do what I want with my phone when I want and still have the same snappiness, camera quality, and reliability on custom ROMs. Most times you sacrifice things to go custom. Not with Google devices, Nexus, Pixel, etc. I still have it since released and can't see getting rid of it any time soon. Ya, maybe people thinking of OnePlus 5, but I also had the 3 and 3T and one thing I hated about that is when using anything custom, the camera was horrible, BT for me had issues, and other little nags. All in all, this is definitely my go to device and I've had many.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] G4lVl3R:
I give it a C+

After having the Pixel XL since I returned the Note 7 (Best phone I've ever owned IMO), There are issues with it that really bug me.

- For one, Youtube stutters and desyncs the audio from the video almost every video I watch, and I watch a lot of YT.

- Second, the bluetooth does not sync right in my Audi, and every 15 minutes it sounds like a modem for like 20 seconds and reconnects. It also doesn't know what to do on voice calls and frequently bounce back and forth between car speakers, and phone speaker mode, so I just turn it off for voice or Hangouts/Meet calls in the car.

- Third, the battery life has been dwindling over time, so I charge twice a day now. Yes, I'm a power user and need at least 6-8 hours of screen on time per day. That being said the phone charging speed is ridiculously fast. I can charge at least 50% in 30 minutes.

- The speakers are crap, and the audio jack doesn't give me enough volume. The setting between say 60-65% volume is way too loud, so the volume curve is not good.

-As a pro, the Camera is excellent, even in low light if you know what you're doing. The video, if you use the auto stability is crap so just don't use it.

The phone does stutter, and take a while sometimes. I am using the stock ROM, and have made no modifications to the file system or home screen at all. As is, this phone is average, so for the price, not worth it. I do have the Verizon version, and not sure if that makes a difference. Can't wait for the Note 8 to come out.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] mlin:
I've had mine since November and still love it. I came from the G7 edge which I was quite fond of as well. The following are the good things that keep me on the Pixel.

- Camera, for stills easily the best available. Wish the EIS didn't cause the jello effect when panning while video recording, but nonetheless I've been quite pleased with the camcorder as well.

- Software, clean, simple, fluid and robust. I am on stock unrooted. I reboot my phone once a month for updates and the phone never lags, gets janky or develops issues requiring a reboot. Additionally, the speed of updates means I'm always up to date with the most secure version​ of Android available.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] OnlinePredator:
I've had my Pixel XL 128gb since launch. I came from a Note 7, so was very challenging to get used to having a very lean software base which didn't offer many features in comparison to the Samsung series. I missed many software features from the Note 7.

The thing that gets me the most, is that I was already bored of the device 6 months in. I usually hold onto a phone for 12-24 months. The Note 4 I held onto for the longest time (24months). I enjoyed it as there were both android OS updates, and touchwiz updates, so it constantly got a new lease to life looking fresh or having new features. 8 months on and the Pixel looks exactly the same, with no updates.

I also feel that the design looked dated when I bought it, but it now is really showing it's age with the HUGE bezels. I have also struggled to find any good screen protectors (I've tried them all) as they don't sit properly. The phone is huge with a smaller screen than most phones this price/size.

It's got the worst bluetooth of any phone I have every owned, partly down to Android but also to the Pixel.

Had a lot more ROM options for Samsung, being that you can go Note 4 roms, Note 5 roms, Note 7 roms, AOSP builds, CM, MIUI. I feel like the Pixel has AOSP, stock. That's it really. They are all the same with very minor changes.

Otherwise it's mostly buttery smooth - although i'm constantly keeping my eye out for a new phone, so could be the shortest period I have owned a phone for.

Does anyone know of a good switch for the today screen I have an att 8525 with the standard rom and HTC Home plugin, the hhc home customiser and really no other tweaks....any help would be appreciated, i have searched but can't seem to find anything, I have seen several things in screenshots I like but don't know how to utilize them.

Cheers.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] venelar:
Try this. Gives you a today plugin for wireless and bluetooth
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] phillyg8r:
Close

The only thing I would like different is if it didn't open up the comm. Manager to actually switch it, if it made the change right from the home screen it would be perfect, anyone know of something like that???I found something called cicleBT that work well however its not on the Today screen home page, I have the HTC home plugin and can put it in the app launcher and its cool. Any way of making it so it works as a plugin on the home screen.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] venelar:
Nice! Haven't seen this one before.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] phillyg8r:
can this be changed to be a plugin

Just want to see if there was a way of making this so that it was a plugin on the today home screen say just under the HTC home plugin aligned to the left side and have my calendar show up to the right of it??? A nice little icon there that is large enough to use my finger to push???

Anyone know how to do a mod like this??

Thank you I wish I knew how to do it, any help would be appreciate.

Cheers!!
