On the Xtremeguard stuff, I'm assuming anything not explicitly marked "tempered glass" is just plastic right? Only one of the phones I looked at had a glass model being sold.

It's interesting to me that you all hate the menu button. I loved it, and I can't stand having to hunt for a gear or bread crumb or wherever the menu is hidden on every different app. Settings living within an app instead of a hardware button sounds like a good idea, and may very well work better in five years, but until then lovely app developers make settings nigh impossible to find, and I find myself stuck knowing that a menu exists somewhere and yet completely incapable of finding it. The tab button, on the other hand, is beyond useless to me. I'm sure it serves some, but my use profile means that it's just a 100% wasted hardware button on the face, of which there are a precious three.

Before you had to mash the menu button in every loving screen in case you had some options there, which often differed from screen to screen.

The Wonder Weapon posted:Out of curiosity, why did you switch off the S6, what did you switch to, and how did it all work? I just got an S6 on Verizon and while the phone isn't bad per se, it's much less of a "wow upgrade" than from my iPhone 3g to the EVO 4g and from the EVO 4g to the S4. It's a snappy device for sure, but the lack of an SD card slot, the glass back necessitating a case, moving the headphone jack, and switching from a menu to a tab button have all added up to making this a far less enjoyable upgrade than in the past.

nerve posted:What kind of apps are you strange people using where the settings are even remotely difficult to find? That's the thing. It is possible to have lovely UI design without the hardware menu button just as you can have a well designed interface using the menu button. The real culprit is lovely designers/developers and not the presence or lack thereof of a hardware button. Not that it matters now that the button has gone the way of small screens and hardware keyboards.

Ever since the very first update for my Nexus 6, my phone will never automatically connect to wifi. It errors out every single time, with multiple AP's with a rather unhelpful error message "WiFi Connection Failure." It works just fine if I manually connect.

Going from a moto x 2013 and then to a Nexus and then back to moto x and then back to Nexus 6 made me realize how dumb it is to worry about phone OS updates. My Nexus 6 just got 5.1 on Verizon. Not sure if it came out to the poverty networks yet.

That's the only thing I've ever heard that causes that. Rename /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf with a .bak and reboot. It should recreate the wifi list and work.
