ThermoPhysical posted:This post has solidified the choice that I am NOT going to buy a Nexus 5 and shall pick up a 6. I wouldn't say it's Nexus S levels. I don't have nearly some of the extreme issues people have been describing, but there's enough people with similar issues that I won't dismiss them. My main complaints are just with battery life, it's just inexplicably bad sometimes. While some of it I can chalk up to being on T-Mobile inside brick buildings most of the day, it's bad even when I put it into airplane mode and turn on wifi. But when I'm at home, it's just fine. I've also had some process go crazy and ramp the processor to max when I charge it, leaving me with only 50 or 60% on the battery when I wake up. It's just enough of a bother to me to make me consider getting either the One M9 or S6 when they come out. I'm willing to deal with it as a backup device.

Removed in the sense that you can do it to repair or replace the battery. I still wouldn't be surprised to find in a year that there's a some  who takes that way too far and is swapping batteries daily, or they made a cover that can be removed more easily.

AT&T has HD Voice, but it's only available in "select markets." It might work with AT&T's implementation, but their coverage is nowhere near as complete as T-Mobile's or Verizon's.

WeAreTheRomans posted:Any predictions on when this will be pushed OTA? Much as I like to complain about the absolutely poo poo battery life, I'm still not hosed flashing the ROM. It's already going out now, it's just that Google's staged rollout process means only a small number of people get it the first few days, with the number increasing until it hits a point of general availability for all.

MC Hawking posted:My nexus is developing some screen issues so I'm thinking about contracting in for a sgs6. Any word on pricing? Nothing official on pricing in the US, but you can make some assumptions on the retail prices based on how much Canadian carriers are charging: $700-$750 for the S6 32GB and $800-$850 for the S6 Edge 32GB, with $100 for each step up in storage.

You can just make a contact that you dump all the numbers you want to go straight to voicemail into, and you go to the overflow menu while in the edit contact screen you can check an option for "All calls to voicemail." This is with default dialer and contacts from Google.

Dirk Funk posted:This one: Barring any hidden screws under the feet they put on it, it looks like it separates along the ridge that you can see above the micro USB port, that runs along it on all sides.. You'll need a small flat object to wedge in there and pop it open - like a small flat-head screwdriver. Typically they use clips that snap in, so you have to be careful, or else you'll snap them off, and it doesn't close back up as tightly.

Apparently the HTC One M8 is $300 from Best Buy. I'm kind of tempted to get it, my Nexus 5 has been hard locking every other day, usually while I'm watching videos on the bus, and it's starting to piss me off. I've already tried a factory reset, and I feel I shouldn't have to unlock, root, and run some other ROM just to have my phone work. How well has the One M8 held up after a year? It seems like an acceptable "sidegrade" to hold me over.

Thermopyle posted:I feel like I'm the only person who's never had any problems with Android drivers on Windows. I'd like to say 99% of the time I usually don't have issues. That other 1% of the time? Makes me want to fastball the drat device against the wall. Then again, the last time I had one of those cases was my Verizon Galaxy Nexus that had been traded around a few family members coming back to me for support. I was really close to just telling them "gently caress it, you're getting a Moto E on me."

hooah posted:Since this seems to be the go-to thread for Google things, is it no longer possible to view a panorama/photosphere in that mode at the photos website? I think you can still use Google+ to view photospheres, but one I took last week I ended up posting to Google Maps Views to share publicly. This requires you to submit it to be potentially publicly viewable on Google Maps at a location with your name associated with it. I didn't care about that, since it was at Niagara Falls, but if you care about privacy for a photosphere, that is not the route to go.

ilkhan posted:Last I heard rumors say no new Nexus tablet this year. Honestly, if they never made another tablet, I don't think I would even care. I think any direction Android had towards being a tablet-capable platform in Honeycomb/ICS was wiped out in Jellybean and Kit Kat, and is effectively dead on Lollipop. I mean, I bought an Asus Transformer with Windows 8.1, and I think it works better as a tablet than my Nexus 7 ever did.

They seem to keep coming back every couple years, but they're always poo poo. Yes, the fingerprint sensors on the iPhone and Galaxy S6 and Note 5 are good. No swiping garbage, just press your finger to it and it works. If the Nexus uses that type of reader, it will be good.

Except most people with it will tell you it doesn't. While the original concept of Moto Display took advantage of AMOLED screens, that wasn't all they did to ensure minimal battery impact.

It's nice and convenient, though bumpy rides can cause it to get crooked.
