Well the factory reset fixed the issue. Though 7-8 hrs of battery life is still pretty weak and the phone won't charge fast enough on an external battery to recharge the battery, just keep it dropping slowly. The biggest issue I'm having is how quickly the USB cables go bad. After just a week...

ok, got everything back to normal. Will see how long the battery life now lasts and report back.

So I factory reset my phone 50 minutes ago and it still shows the bugdroid with the spinning gears and says its "erasing". Is it supposed to take this long? Is something wrong? I had 24 GB of media and apps on the phone but it seems to be an excessive amount of time to delete that.

Ok, I've cleared the cached data and will see if that helps. I'd like to avoid FDR because I've been downloading and saving a year's worth of a some particular media that I don't want to have to re download.

Ok so I'm posting this as a warning/call out to see if anyone else is facing this problem. Today I got the 6.0 OTA and prior to that my battery was already pretty bad, about 7.5 hrs battery life with 3 hrs SOT. BUT it would turbo charge like a champ and as long as I had an external battery...

Just got the update. Phone is restarting now. As for why I need to keep this phone for no less than 4 years its not because of an actual contractual obligation. My dad just drilled into me the importance of maximizing the utility of everything I buy and since Google is now supporting Nexi for...

LYZ28N on T-Mobile. 3 days since T-Mo approved update and 55 since Google started rolling out OTA.

I'm on LYZ28N as well. Haven't heard that I need to be on K to get OTA but it may explain why it's now been 3 days since T-Mobile approved the OTA (55 days since Google started rolling out OTA) yet I have yet to get the update.

2 days since t-mobile approved the update and 54 days since Google started rolling out out and I'm still waiting on my update. I really need that battery boost. My phone only lasts 1:34 on the Antutu battery test with screen brightness on max. In real world figures that is 7:30 battery life...

50 days after Google started rolling out ota t-mobile finally completes testing it and promises it will start rolling out "soon". Given that t-mobile was 4 months late getting WiFi calling in not exactly holding my breath.

If this be true then Elron the Elder has single handily discovered the reason behind this abominably slow OTA roll out. It is so logical that it must be true BUT then it bodes poorly for Nexus 6 OTA upgrade to 7.0 Nougat unless Google makes sure that version support band 12 from the get go...

Wrong. Anyone with LYZ28N (the Nov security update) cannot do that. It worked with the October security version but anyone who didn't FDR by now has missed their chance and has now been abandoned to the chaotic ravages of this interminable OTA waiting process;) Day 48 and counting since Android...

OUCH! As someone moving to Dallas soon that is very disappointing. I love TMO and would never leave except to Google Fi.

My #1 priority is screen size. BUT as someone who likes to own their phones till the wheels fall off I also like updates. Nexi are guaranteed to get upgraded to the next 2 generations of android which is sweet. (the fact that my TMO Nexus 6 is now on day 48 and counting waiting on the 6.0 OTA...

Day 47 since Google started 6.0 ota rollout. So no sign of update on my tmo phone. If this is a quick update then I can't imagine what hell none nexus folk go through.
