Just tested and I have the same problem you have. When I am playing music on my device with the screen off, the volume buttons (standard ones on the side of the phone) do not change the playback volume unless the phone is actually locked. I performed the same test as before, set the...

I have some additional information. I figured out by accident that there are two kinds of behaviors when the screen is turned off. Under scenario 1 below, my headset buttons will not work. Under scenario 2 below, my headset buttons do work. Basically, I have set the lock timer on my phone to...

Hey Gang, I recently purchased a Nexus 6P and I absolutely love it. However, I frequently use a headset with inline buttons while working around my house and the 6P has an issue with my Samsung earbuds (came with Note 5). When the screen is on, everything (volumn +/- and play/pause) works...

I am actually trying to use those exact same earbuds. When the screen of my Nexus 6P is on, they work without any problems. Play/pause, Volume control, and audio all work without issue. However when the screen is locked, audio continues to work but the play/pause and volume controls stop working...

I have a Zenwatch and it will not turn on. When I plug it in, the green light on the adapter turns green to show that it is charging but no matter how long I press the little power button, the watch won't turn on or give any kind of response. Is there any way to do some kind of reset? I really...

I recently switched from a moto x pure to the S6 active and am quite happy with it. Camera, screen, battery life and active key are all decent to big upgrades. Build quality is a bit of a wash overall depending on what you like but I think I prefer the active. Software updates and maybe software...

Thanks everybody for your input. You have restored some of my excitement about this device. I can't use a fingerprint sensor because of my work and so this phone seems better for me in every way than than the s6 beyond the larger bezels. As long is it proves to be reasonably durable, I think I...

Thanks man, I really appreciate your feedback. It is such a shame that they didn't do a better job protecting this phone. I assume you had to pay for the repair out of pocket? Most reviews I have read said that Samsung would not stand behind their durability claims.

Re: Android 6.0 Marshmallow for the Moto X Pure Edition Looks like that won't be an issue for this phone, I have the moto x pure (2015) on AT&T and just got a notification that 6.0 is available for my phone.

Hey Everybody, I am seriously considering the S6 active. I like changing up phones every few months and am thinking about giving Sammy a shot again. I was thinking the S6 but just can't deal with the battery life. I like the note 5 (currently trying it out via samsung test drive) but I don't...

More hand friendly design with sloping back curves!

I have seen conflicting reports so can you confirm if the Moto has a metal frame (like the the 2014 moto x) or a metalized plastic frame?

Re: IPhone 6+ Not true, the iPhone 6 has a smaller top and bottom bezel than the 6+. I can't post links b/c I have not posted enough but if you view the phonearena link above and add the 6 to the comparison, you will see what I mean. Also, they could always make the top bezel smaller. I know...

Re: Disappointed with the camera improvements? So, I have a couple of things to mention: 1) Most places where I have seen comparisons between the iphone 5s and Samsung S5 cameras, the S5 has been ranked equal or better than the iphone 5s camera. Even imore thinks they are about tied, and they...

re: I have had a Z2 for about 2 weeks and am enjoying it as well. Battery life is indeed great. And I went with the magnetic charger as well. It is hard for me to imagine it pulling out the port because the magnet is rather weak (and this is a charger that claims to have 2X the magnetic...
