the nicker posted:Yeah.. i never even ran 5.0, did a clean flash straight to 5.0.1 and playing video in any app kills my tablet 95% of the time. It's basically a brick at this point, considering that's the primary thing I use(d) it for. Flashing 0.2 now.. fingers crossed. Thats odd. I had the issue with 5.0 where video would not play back, but 5.0.1 fixed all that. I've been pretty happy with 5.0.1 (low bar from 5.0s memory leak as well). I'm abuot to flash 5.0.2..

Rastor posted:It seems unusual to me that a company would require you to have/use a phone while offering zero compensation / reimbursement for it. This. I use/pay for my personal device but they pay for the service and give me a subsidized deal . I work for a company of 1100 people, so mediumish. Being a condition of the job to have a phone seems like they should be the ones to pay for it. What would they do if you just had a personal flip phone?

Is there a way to change the color of an activesync calendar? I can see how to change the color of all the googles ones, even my facebook event calendar I imported.. but not the color of the NINE exchange email calendar. I'm on a Moto Droid Maxx, Stock. Quick searching suggests an app to do it, is that really the only way?

It seems like now I have to restart my phone everyday because by the end of the day it starts lagging so bad its almost impossible to do anything and has started to heat up more than normal. Did you do a factory reset? I've not had any issues, but I had a clean install of 5.1.

Syrinxx posted:Thanks, I picked it up from Amazon who also have a great policy. I'll probably stick it out with 16GB and try the adopted storage thing; I'm kind of a hotsauce in that I buy a phone around every 10-12 months anyway. Isn't the 6gb a partition, not files? So it has room for updates etc. Some of that space would be empty but inaccessible. Also, hasn't having 16GB been too small for like 2 years? Either iPhone or Android devices?

I side loaded marshmallow on my nexus 7 (2013) and its noticeably faster than before. I didn't bother to wipe, and I fell asleep while it was optimizing so I didn't manage to put it on a charger. So far the battery life seems better, but I won't really know for a few days of real use. But it definitely feels snappier. Things are opening quicker etc. Not really noticing any of the differences other than the now on tap. I never use the press/hold home, I'm using the default launcher so just swipe over to NOW. We'll see if it becomes useful while I'm in apps. I primarily use the tablet for web, so I'm either in Awful or chrome. We'll see if the on tap gets much use.

the nicker posted:I loaded Mashmallow on my 2013 N7 last night (clean wipe) and it does this weird thing where it won't update/install apps while the screen is off. I left to see the Martian when it started restoring apps, and when I got home and it was as if nothing happened while I was gone - it was still on the second app when i woke it up. This continued throughout the night, regardless if it was plugged in or on battery. As soon as the display goes to sleep, it stops. Anyone else getting that? It doesn't do that at all on my N5. I didn't wipe, but I've had a few apps update today and I installed one from the web fine.

Does anyone have a nice 1 click way to download pictures from gmail to the google photos, direct to a new/existing album would be even better? Right now there is a nice 1 click to move to drive. But you get to drive, and along the side has photos, but I'm not seeing a way to interact with that. I'm looking for a way to do it on the computer, figured ya'll are deep enough into the ecosystem it wasn't too far outside of this thread.

Looking at the release notes, it looks like nine works was updated to work with android work? Not sure really what that means even. It looks like Nine is still their main app, it was updated october where as works was back in july. Their website has info about nine but not nine works.. Anyone else know the difference? Otherwise, Nine has been great and worth the price for me. On my personal tablet I have it sandboxed, on my phone I just have the pin for the phone and it goes through fine.

I kind of have a feeling that GPMAA is not popular enough with people who talk about music on the internet. maybe there is a scraper for this : https://play.google.com/store/music/collection/movers_shakers?hl=en looks to be the new release section. Granted, who knows if that's only the most popular ones or all of them.

I used to have to go to https://play.google.com/music/listen#/now to be able to listen to music. Before, google.com/music would take you to purchase music, not listen to google play nor your already purchased albums. I've had play since the beginning, and I remember being frustrated over this up until after Youtube Red was announced...

If it you pull it out too soon the thing breaks and the cashier had to pretty much go to another register while the one rebooted. You can wait till they are done ringing you up, and then chip/sign.

So, Broke my Droid Turbo the other day. This is the 2nd screen, so no screen replacement this time. The company pays my phone/bill, so I talked to the person in charge and they got me an early upgrade. I've now got a $100 Droid Turbo 2 on Verizon. Am I dumb to want to buy a $500 Nexus 5x (32gb + protection since I clearly need it) and try to flip the new in box Droid turbo 2? On swappa they go for almost $500 for NiB. I was approved to have the nexus, but since its not sold via verizon, they would have purchased a nexus5 for me. Not the 5x. I'm not a fan of the 5.5" screen, too large. I'm sure I'll get used to it, but not sure I want to. I'd like the finger print reader since we require print or pin. Is the nexus name + finger print + smaller screen worth $200?? Help me goons!

GokieKS posted:Get the N5X, and then consider getting a case. Or a more durable one if you already had it on your previous phone and still managed to destroy the screen twice. I do go caseless. I don't like the added bulk. For what its worth, the turbo is the first phone I've broken a screen on. Ive been android since cupcake, and I've rarely had the case. Both times, I droped it face first and it hit an edge of a rock. Once camping, once mtb biking. I do a lot outside and it may have been luck. I'm thinking i'll keep my current smashed turbo, since it still works, as an insurance when I ride hard. Thanks for the push!
