Haha no poo poo http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/06/05/june-nexuspixel-factory-images-ota-files-now-available-download-includes-fix-pixel-freezing/ https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/phone-by-google/5Aw4Ui0nJKw/84L2a6TKAgAJ This is the freezing problem I was having, but they've already shipped my warranty replacement a couple days ago. Wow.

Trip report after owning the Moto G5+ for one week: it's really snappy and feels like it should cost MUCH more than $240 unlocked. The screen is slightly desaturated and reds in particular are pretty weak and muddy. I'm getting concerned about bugs though: yesterday the battery gauge got stuck at 60% and wouldn't update until I restarted the phone. Today, I took it out of my pocket and saw that it was in some weird "Safe Mode". My last phone (1st gen Moto X) never had any weird bugs like this. Hoping it doesn't get worse with time because, as I mentioned, it's only been one week!

I'm really surprised their support reps didn't have inside scoop on this, the guy jumped to replacing my phone very very fast.

Especially since the last few years of Moto phones, save for the horrendous/sporadic security updates, generally worked extremely well. I had 4 Motorola devices in 3 years and they all worked great. The Moto X Pure had one of the nicest (if not best)LCD displays of any phone released the same year.

Battery life isn't what it used to be either. It's getting very tempting to spend a few bux on one of these.

Anyone know how to delete a draft in the stock messenging app? A friend was attacked by a goose and so I went to send him Danger Zone and it got saved as a draft and long story short anytime I go to send anyone a message now there's a youtube link to Kenny Loggins. e: Figured it out angerbot fucked around with this message at 02:47 on Jun 6, 2017 |

I got the lg g6 for free as part of my plan as they had no other phones shipped in, and i dont know if its the phone or android 7.0, for some reason my notifications will completely turn off at some point in the day and i have to reboot my phone to get any audio notifications again, this includes calls, anyone able to help with this?

If you are not accidentally turning on do not disturb mode (there will be an icon in the top right by where the alarm and wifi icons are) you need to return it because it is broken and LG is bad

One week into Pixel ownership: * This is a really, really nice phone, everything is so smooth and whenever I think "gee, it would be nice if Google built X into the phone" it seems to be there already. * I got the 32GB, and sometimes wish I would have coughed up for the 128GB, but on the other hand it forced me to clean up all the podcasts I had downloaded and would probably not listen to. * That being said, the Moto G4 Play has some magic battery life poo poo going on.

Is there a phone out there that's pretty much the Moto X first generation but better? I've been holding out for the past 3 years but it's starting to feel its limits. Most important in order would be small size, at least the same battery life, and active display.

Otherwise the only people making phones similar in size would be Sony's Xperia Compact line.

Really want someone to release a flagship with a totally beefy camera like the Nokia 9 was supposed to have. All I want is some that will browse the web fastish and take the best pics possible that isnt windows phone. Theres no way to put android on say the nokia 1520 right?

There are a lot of camera focused (heh) smartphones already in production though. In no particular order you can look at the G6, Pixel, Mate 9, iPhone 7, Galaxy S8, V20 The Pixel in particular has an astonishingly good camera.

LastInLine posted:Yeah that's a Pixel. Yeah. I'm fairly certain that the Pixel would likely beat that Nokia for image quality. It has a larger sensor with larger pixels and a faster lens. The Pixel is no compromises when it comes to a smartphone camera. They really don't get better.

I was hoping for a step up from 13mp really. Like when the lumia came out with 40mp but not a bad phone like that. Read somewhere the next nokia could have a big number like that. Can you really make up for the same resolution sensor with whatever, better materials/image processing?

Read somewhere the next nokia could have a big number like that. Can you really make up for the same resolution sensor with whatever, better materials/image processing? Better optics, bigger sensors, and better post processing do a whole hell of a lot more for image quality than pixel count once you get past, oh, 6 or 8 MP or so. (at least for phone sized cameras) After that, all MOAR MEGAPIXELS is getting you is worse low light performance and bigger files.

This has precisely nothing to do with photo quality.

Hey, dunno if anyone's mentioned it yet, but megapixel count doesn't correspond to image quality, just a friendly heads up.

Everybody knows image quality is not determined by how many pixels it has, but how large those pixels are.

My dad got a Nexus 5X through Fi a while back, and it got replaced this week by Google for boot looping. Does anyone know what the warranty is on replacements, or is there a website to check based on serial number?

Nalin posted:Everybody knows image quality is not determined by how many pixels it has, but how large those pixels are. Sarcasm is hard over The Internet but yes, basically the largest determining factor in image quality is the size of the pixels on the image sensor. AnandTech had a detailed article on this a few years ago, but it's still relevant (although we've gotten better at making somewhat smaller photosites perform better over time, size remains king). This is assuming somewhat equal optics and image processing, of course.

This is why I carry a view camera, bellows, full set of lenses, heavy duty tripod and a RRS Arca-swiss ballhead system with me everywhere. Smartphone cameras, pfft.
