Well the only thing I could say is... had you rooted your last phone you could restore all your apps with their settings. That's what I did. I could wipe my phone right now and have it back to just how it was in less than 20 minutes. That is the power of TWRP. I could download a new rom and...

I would back them up before deleting them but yes you'll need root. I have never known anyone to be sorry they unlocked the bootloader and rooted their device. If the only thing I could do with root is run ad blocker I would do it. I can't imagine not having root on my device. It wasn't until I...

If you want a near stock experience and a be on 5.1.1 then load AOSIP. I have had 0 issues with it, honestly. There was an update to the ROM last week but I could not think of one good reason to load it. My phone is running perfectly on Verizon and I hate to mess with perfection. Sent from my...

Me too. I don't wait on Verizon. Sent from my Nexus 6

Dude it is a Nexus. Load whatever you want. Sent from my Nexus 6

With Verizon get between 8 and 30 megabits per second. And I live in the middle of nowhere. Sent from my Nexus 6

I guess if you call fooling around wanting any one of the following features. And being able to load all these options in 5 minutes: Navigation Bar Mods Expanded Desktop Custom Quick Settings Clear Recents Options Floating Clear Recents Custom DPI that doesn't affect Play Store Disable Google...

Stock is so boring. I have flashed 6 or 7 various ones but Benzo is the one I keep coming back to. I love any ROM with themes because white backgrounds hurt my eyes. Sent from my Nexus 6

With a Nexus you can run anything that is on the Nexus 6 download site, unless it says only for X provider, no matter what the carrier it will work it may not be optimal but it will work. https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#shamu Sent from my Nexus 6

None of those issues affected me but honestly I would probably get the LG if rooting and running alternate ROMs is not important to you. With the Nexus, even with alternate camera apps, I believe this camera is just too slow especially if you compare to LG. Sent from my Nexus 6

I have had it like a week... Or do you mean officially?

the good news is they are getting a divorce in May . You will notice all your photos are on your Google Drive now I suspect soon it will be complete Sent from my Benzo'd Google N6 on VZ

No it is no effort at all..... until you accidentally load the wrong kernel and it gets encrypted anyway[emoji6] then you get to start all over[emoji106] So has long as you're paying attention you're fine but I don't see where it's worth my effort. Sent from my Benzo'd Google N6 on VZ

Re: Nexus 6 bluetooth track info I don't know I have a a 2010 Nissan that never has an issue streaming artist and track information from Google Play through I don't know how many upgrades of Android. Sent from my Benzo'd Google N6 on VZ

You will get slightly better I/O but for the effort I don't think it's worth it... but then again I don't run high end games on my phone. Unless you're running a game that has a lot of disk access or you're trying to get a high score in your benchmark program, just leave it be is my advice...

I have a few DSLR's but as you may have guessed it's not always convenient to lug around a giant camera. I have spent many hours with camera on the N6. I didn't need a review to tell me how the camera worked but I was surprised the review glossed over the shortcomings. I think I have purchased...

Yes if speed is an issue make sure it is not in HDR mode it is super slow then. Sent from my Benzo'd Google N6 on VZ

Glorifying a review that overlooks the Nexus 6 glaring issues is fanboyism, however you look at it. Just because you personally don't use those options doesn't mean the phone is not lacking. I challenge you to take a decent video tracking an object that is changing distances ( like a dog...

Single pictures one at a time? Sure. no slow motion video. No burst. simple fact is the Nexus camera application is missing a lot of features every other camera phone has. can you do some of the same things with other applications sure, but it would be nice to have it in one. The one that...

Or you can be like most people and not even care about OTAs. You can load a flashable zip within 24 to 48 hours (after someone makes one) or you're on a custom ROM and there will be an update do that shortly. I think the last time I have taken in the last 4 years is when I turned on my Nexus...
