[Nexus 6P General] 91ludesit:
Well guess it looks like I'll be leaving the 6P club. I've had some minor reboot and boot loops with my replacement 6P over the past few months. I reached out to Google today who decided to replace it with a new pixel XL. I'm super pleased with the Google customer service as my first replacement was out of warranty, and they granted me to one out of warranty as well.
[Nexus 6P General] NOSTALGIA:
Good that your happy with the replacement PixelXL..
[Nexus 6P General] wayne8821212:
Warranty

They called it a warranty exemption because they are way out of warranty period but the problems started (both the battery and bootloop issues) before the one year point. Thank you Scooby!!!!
[Nexus 6P General] akenis:
Damn...my 6P refurb seems to be ok for now. Showing 104% accubattery☹️

Weird when I first took it out if the box...battery was completely dead. Normally they ship with a little juice. Had to be on charger for a few minutes before it would boot. When it did, I looked at battery chart. Did they ship it powered on? From the graph, it looks like little usage and then it looks like an early shutdown?

Also weird to be wishing my refurb was broke....
[Nexus 6P General] BladeRunner:
lol, my refurb is arriving today and I am hoping that it is broken...:silly:
[Nexus 6P General] cybrshrk85:
Got my pixel xl replacement today and it's not a refurbished unit but a brand new sealed retail package. Guess they ran out of those too! Lol hope everyone else is as lucky my other 2 replacements will be here tomorrow I'll let you know if they are refubs or retail.
[Nexus 6P General] UniversalGC:
I chatted with Google last night, and they shipped out a 128GB black Pixel XL to me this morning. I purchased my 6P through Google with Nexus Protect. I couldn't be happier with their response to this issue.

I tentatively plan to buy a Pixel 2 XL when it is released, so I will sell the replacement phone in a few weeks.
[Nexus 6P General] Duffman3005:
Found out from a co-worker about all this last Friday, chatted with someone on the Nexus support page, and got a brand new Pixel XL replacement ordered that day. Since it was a holiday weekend (in the US), and I had it ordered late afternoon, it didn't get shipped until this morning. My co-worker had his replacement ordered that Friday morning and just got it this morning, he's loving his new Pixel XL so far. He had the 64GB 6P, and got the 128GB Pixel XL as a replacement, and I guess since I had a 32GB 6P, they're sending me the 32GB Pixel XL as well.

Should be here tomorrow, can't wait!

Edit-I got my 6P near the end of 2015, so it was well out of warranty.
[Nexus 6P General] LifeOfDenial:
It's cool they are replacing so many devices bought thru the Play store, but sucks they are leaving the rest of us out to dry.
[Nexus 6P General] teh roxxorz:
Nice and same here. I got my 6P at launch, 64gb.

They're sending me a 128gb XL.

Two personal friends of mine, not on XDA, both chatted with Google, and they too are both getting 128gb replacements.

Mine will arrive Thursday.
[Nexus 6P General] lUnorthodoxFoxl:
I plan on unrooting and returning to stock, but do we need to lock bootloader before sending?
[Nexus 6P General] BladeRunner:
I retract my statement. They sent me PIxel XL, 128gb, lol. It looks brand new. How can I tell if it is a refurb?
[Nexus 6P General] M.Noury:
It will be written on the box

By the way when you placed the order what was mentioned in the link/email confirmation
[Nexus 6P General] BladeRunner:
Nothing on the box so I guess it is brandy new.

Tracking my claim and it says "Huawei NEXUS 6P 64GB GRAPHITE GOOG"
[Nexus 6P General] rsage:
I have a pixel on the way to replace my 2nd 6p. Just out of curiosity for those who have received their pixels, what are the dates of manufacture?
[Nexus 6P General] nomisunrider:
Is there any way for me to check this myself?
[Nexus 6P General] TheAtheistOtaku:
contacted them via chat support and they sending me a pixel xl to replace my 32 gig 6p. this would be my second replacement. mine was a pre order from google
[Nexus 6P General] teh roxxorz:
I personally recommend doing so.

Generally they don't seem to care, but I've always done it as best practice.

---------- Post added at 02:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 AM ----------

It seems to be what your RMA may have started out as. Mine is like yours, where it shows the 6P, but the two personal friends of mine, their order pages shows a 128gb XL.
[Nexus 6P General] ky87:
Bought my 6p off Newegg Feb 2016, RMA'd December 2016 after bootloop of death. Now suffering from the early shutdown. No luck getting a replacement after talking with Google =(
[Nexus 6P General] M.Noury:
My order shows Nexus 6P Refurb

However the IMEI in shipping confirmation belong to Pixel XL.

Mine shipped from Canada.
[Nexus 6P General] 400ixl:
The IMEI number, or whether the phone was bought from Google. If you didn't buy it (if you did it will be in your history on the Google Store) then I don't believe there is anyway for you to check if someone else bought it from them. Only way I know of is to contact Google and see how it goes.
[Nexus 6P General] d.brown:
Anyone had success with this new google policy in Canada? I want to know if Google Canada does rma past the coverage and also with pixel xl?
[Nexus 6P General] teh roxxorz:
Interesting. I don't see the IMEI number if my device anywhere, but good either way. ✊?
[Nexus 6P General] M.Noury:
HI

Check the email

Nexus 6P (64GB, LTE, Graphite) (Refurbished)

Device ID numbers:

352693082323***
[Nexus 6P General] teh roxxorz:
Hmm, idk if it's a Canada thing, but at least mine here in the US didn't come with that information. Not in the store history/confirmand, nor email. Though I'm not worried. And I did purchase it from the Google store, my 6P.
[Nexus 6P General] mmaiolo81:
I really wish that Google would RMA like a carrier...

Not everyone has $100's of dollars able to be put on hold while phones are being shipped back and forth...

I even tried to get them to let me ship my phone first and ship the RMA after receipt... No joy on that...

Now with this hurricane coming, alot of the funds saving for the RMA need to go-to preps...

Goodness...

I can say, Google CS has been great through the process, and said as soon as I have the funds available, they will honor the RMA...
[Nexus 6P General] 117micc:
So I got extremely lucky! I bought my nexus from a guy on Craigslist, I contacted support online and they upgraded me to the pixel xl 128 gb black. I was supposed to put a card that had 921$ on it they could put a hold on, I did not have that but out my card on there anyways, I got an email saying that my order was put on hold because my card declined. Ok that's fine, contacted support to try another route. They informed me my device was out of warranty and in not the original owner so I should never have been given a replacement offer to begin with... They escalated the case. Haven't heard anything since. Until today... When a brand new pixel xl showed up at my door from Fed ex... I guess I got really lucky. Support wants my old device back even though is out of warranty but told me not to send it until the tier 2 support contracts me first. I'm thinking they may not accept the nexus back because is out of warranty and I'm not the original owner and they maybe just maybe may let me keep both phones! We will see lol...
[Nexus 6P General] mmaiolo81:
I wish I got that lucky myself... My card declined, I got an immediate email saying I had to contact CS to get new info....

I talked to them and said that $500 was alot to come by (I don't use credit)... Saved the $500 had them send me a new link, for a pixel... Well, they want the pixels price to put on hold, $927 or so, don't have that... So I told em I would get back to them when I had a grand in the bank that I can use...
[Nexus 6P General] murso74:
Pixel came today.. nice device but I may be trading it in towards the note 8. I wanted a larger screen this year, got a smaller one instead. Not complaining though. Going to take some pictures with the camera this weekend to check it out. See you all in the pixel forums for now
[Nexus 6P General] M.Noury:
I received Pixel XL 32GB black my original phone is Nexus 6P 64 GB black.
[Nexus 6P General] caifan:
I bought directly from Huawei...no luck with Google honoring replacement
[Nexus 6P General] scoobysnack:
That IMEI is for a Pixel XL. Nexus 6p starts out 867980020. Even tho your Google receipt shows a Nexus 6P that IMEI is for a Pixel XL. My receipt was the same way.
[Nexus 6P General] scoobysnack:
I felt the same way also. The Pixel 2 is right around the corner so I may hold out for that one :)
[Nexus 6P General] murso74:
I read yesterday that its going to be the SD835, not the 836 in the pixel 2. Plus it's supposed to only be a single camera, I figure for the 300 bucks I can get off the note (plus the freebees) I'd rather go that way
[Nexus 6P General] crixley:
Google gives me the ole "contact Huawei" response, even after i tell them I've called Huawei at least a hundred times. They've (Huawei) hung up on me a few times and promised to call me back but never did a bunch of times. You couldn't pay me to use another Huawei phone, and considering how Google washed their hands clean of any responsibility i will probably never buy a pixel either.
[Nexus 6P General] C5Longhorn:
I want a Pixel 2 also. The quick software updates are one of the most important features to me.
[Nexus 6P General] LifeOfDenial:
Same boat. Google is going to sway away many future purchases. Hell I'd be happy with a trade in offer.
[Nexus 6P General] idbl_fanatic:
Same here, I never get a response, or if I do, they tell me to contact Google
[Nexus 6P General] Rebel2k:
Same here too. They told me to go in their Service Center and see there but at the moment the service center doesn't have any Nexus 6P battery... So I'm waiting for them to get one but no news yet after a week... Let's wait a bit more...
[Nexus 6P General] chaco81:
Called Aug 28th to replace my 6P for screen malfuctions. I had a Silver 64Gb Nexus 6P.

The ordered processed was for a black 64Gb 6P.... that order didnt process until 2 days ago.

The package was just delivered. And lo behold, upon opening the box, i got a Brand spanking new Black Pixel XL 128Gb

Yay!!!
[Nexus 6P General] tech_head:
I sold my Nexus 6P.

I'm done.
[Nexus 6P General] richii0207:
Best of luck on your next cell phone!
[Nexus 6P General] echz:
Have any second-hand owners had success in getting their 6P replaced through Google? I bought mine on Swappa and talked with Google who said they'd warranty replace it with a Pixel, however since I didn't contact them from the account that originally purchased the phone they wouldn't do anything ... they said in order to process the warranty replacement that the account who purchased the phone would have to make the contact with them.

I haven't read their warranty terms but I'm going to guess it only covers the original owner, which sucks because mine is stuck boot-looping and is now more or less just a paperweight. I've reached out to the original owner in hopes that he'll assist me with Google, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] serif55:
(sorry bad english i use google translate)

i have idol 4s 6070K bro.

I tried every way but it did not. I do not have advanced knowledge of software. I can not find this solution, because I do not have enough time.

As far as I understand, there's no one using this phone a lot. Since they are not very popular, the developers are not helping. We only need one twrp and one root access.
[Alcatel Idol 4S Questions & Answers] TheCapesCrew:
Well you are correct there, 6070k does have limited support. The 6055 is were development is.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] AllanonMage:
Hello all!

I have been searching for hours looking for answers and I've found a lot of cool information, and supposedly some cabs that will supposedly fix what I want, but I'd prefer to do it manually before loading some cab files from the net. And I want to do it manually because at one point I had this working.

Problem: MMS is not working "correctly." I have the TX and RX small picture problem to be specific. I have found numerous posts linking to cab files here, there and everywhere, and to be honest there are too many download links for me to feel comfortable picking one that claims to work.

I have an HTC Universal branded as an XDA Exec. I recently upgraded the ROM to the latest that O2 had (if you need a copy I can provide), and that fixed some other problems I had going on. The last issue I have unresolved is the small picture problem. I am currently running Windows Mobile 5.

I have called HTC and some spaz guy answered the phone. It sounded like he was getting it on with someone or running a marathon, and he pretty much told me to talk to AT&T, with whom I had just gotten off the phone with. HTC says it's the network, and AT&T says it's the phone that is doing the shrinking.

I don't really care who is doing it at this point, unless that comes with an explanation of how to fix it. Once it's fixed I will be curious as to how it all broke, but now I want it fixed.

I started with the setting for a Cingular 8525 and I could not send or receive MMS msgs. At some point I fixed that, and then they got small, but I could send and receive. Before I flashed the ROM I could receive MMS but not reliably send. I received several MMS pics that were over 100 and 200 k, and one over 300k sent from a Razr. I state this because I know the phoen I have can handle it.

If you could post the settings to help me out, or point me to a link in this forum that has those settings (I'm not interested in a link to just a cab file, I want to KNOW how it works), I would greatly appreciate it. I have been looking on the web, this forum (via its search AND google), and the Cingular website, and even playing around with some of the setting, and I havent found the solution.

If you could email me at dragonfire_83 at yahoo dot com I'd appreciate it. I might forget to check the email/PM feature here...

Also, on a related note, what do I have to do to remove the stupidly arbitrary sending limitation of 100k in the MMS config section?

Thanks!

Dan

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] AllanonMage:
Seriously....?

Ok, here I am DAYS later STILL looking for settings.

I managed to find on the cingular website (why is it that it takes me 30 minutes just to find the tutorial website????) and go back to the settings they have there, but now I'm stuck with the resizing problem.

https://www.wireless.att.com/suppor...sCategory=Picture+Messaging&tutorialId=233040

is the link I followed.

# Server Name: Cingular MMS

# Gateway: wireless.cingular.com

# Port number: 80

# Server address: http://mmsc.cingular.com

# Connect via: MEdia Net

# Sending size limitation: 300k (my phone only does 100k here)

# WAP Version: WAP 2.0

The phone cant send or receive at WAP 1.2, which I think it used to be able to.

I have found an overwhelming number of people and entries with similar problems, yet I have found no solutions.

Actually, Its just the RX small picture problem now.

Has anyone gotten any of these to work? The bright white notifications with black themes are blinding and hideous. I've tried a few on the Substratum but they always error out when applying systemui themes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] jolly_roger_hook:
swift black is the only one i got to work and no system ui tweaks are going to work on this device none were created for it most themes were made with nexus/pixel devices in mind and a few devs decided to make updates to use certain theme aspects on the s8/s8+ if you can find one with system ui tweaks that work that dev put extra work into it to make it work on s7 edge

G935T unlocked-running at&t firmware on att network. Can't get wi-fi calling working!

Sure would like some help from the brilliant minds on this board....

I bought an unlocked G935T a few months ago and have been using it on At&t (with the G935T firmware) for the last few months.

Recently, I needed to use wi-fi calling. Couldn't get it to work on TMo firmware so last night I flashed G935A firmware one it (QF3)

Firmware is working fine - everything seems to be working EXCEPT wi-fi calling. Damn you, AT&T!

I can use one of the free VOIP apps like Google Voice, of course, but when I call out I need to be able to use my cell phone number and really don't want to have to forward calls to GV every time I go into this particular building that doesn't have any cell reception.

Chatting with support this morning, they said it can't be done. I don't understand - if the hardware is the same across all US Variants, then why can't At&t firmware enable this feature? What am I missing??? GRRRRR
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Mr. Clown:
You should be able to do it, because I'm doing the opposite. I have a SM-G935A AT&T phone running a T-Mobile firmware and SIM. I'm capable of doing wifi calling/sms etc. Even though my S7 Edge is basically a T-mobile one, when I login to my TMO account it shows the phone not a TMO - due to the IMEI #. I bet the AT&T system doesn't recognize the phone as one of theirs and are unable to activate this feature.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] danoelise:
Yeah, I went into the AT&T store today and they confirmed. It cannot be done. Well, it CAN be done, but they aren't willing to do it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Mr. Clown:
Those bastards!..Time to move to T-Mobile?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] cnewsgrp:
Isn't TMO doing same to you? All carriers are evil

Nope, I have 2 non-tmobile phones running TMO firmware and they work like charm.

Did you do a wipe when you flashed or just update? If you just did an update, I would try to reinstall and let it wipe the device.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Murrzeak:
Guys, anyone still getting random on persistent reboots on Oreo with Pixel (XL)? I'm doing my second factory reset atm and monitoring these two threads on buganiser - 1, 2. Basically people started getting reboots after upgrading to Oreo and one notable common thing is: 'Sense Key : Hardware Error [current]' which Google reps assigned to the threads read as hardware issue (probably with Toshiba's memory chips being prone to overflow/overload (?)). They haven't answered my question why is it only happening on Oreo though. I REALLY don't want to go through the warranty process again only to get a device with the same problem as I still believe it can be fixed in 8.1. Is there anyone who had similar issues that got fixed with the 8.1 Beta? Cheers!
