    Android N developer preview is out!

    No love for the Nexus 5. :( That's too bad. I can't put a dev rom on my daily driver. I depend on my N6 for work. I SO wanted to try this on my spare N5. Oh well....

    It's March. Still no OTA to Marshmallow

    Being on the AT&T network, I got tried of waiting (November 2015: http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-6/615308-i-got-tired-waiting-t-installed-mra58r-my-n6.html) and took the bull by the horns. Today, just after the latest images were released (MMB29V), I updated my Nexus 5, 6 and 7...

    Nexus 5 Still Worth Getting for $150?

    If it's in good shape, $150 is a decent price. I still pull my N5 out every now and then and play with it. It still runs great and I just updated it to MMB29Q and it runs great. I always liked the N5 but it was just a bit too small for me (I'm 6'8", 300lbs) and have very large hands so i'm much...

    Styling of Nexus 6 VS XP Nexus 6 vs 6 P

    I keep mine well protected in an armored case, so aesthetics don't really concern me.

    Try this. Go to the YouTube desktop site. Make sure you're signed in. Top right corner, click on your "picture" and click on the gear (settings) icon. On the account settings menu, go to Playback and make sure you're set to always play in the highest quality.

    Is owning a Nexus 6 in 2016 worth sticking with?

    For me it is. Never again will I pay a premium price for a newly released phone. Back on January 2015, I paid $750 for my 64gb Nexus 6. I could buy one now for $300. Was it worth the $450 "depreciation" to be an early adopter? Hell NO! Depending on what the next Nexus is, I'll either stick...

    Who's got MMB29Q (6.0.1 w/ Feb security patches)?

    The last update for the 6P and the 5X was "P." The last update for the N7 (2013) was "O." $h1t happens.

    6.0.1 installation error

    Sure. That's what I do. I download the .tgz to my desktop. Once I'm done with it, I delete it.

    6.0.1 installation error

    They should, but if you leave the bootloader unlocked, you can use NRT's "No Wipe Mode" to flash the new image every month. It's very fast and it takes longer to download the image than it does to flash it. Yesterday morning, I downloaded the images for my N5, N6 and N7. That took about 20...

    How to enable the cast screen function in Motorola Nexus 6?

    Oops, my bad. There has been some changes. Chromecast now works across different SSID's on the same network. It didn't use to, about a year ago. And my Smart TV, a Sony Bravia, I can use AllCast to cast directly to it no matter which SSID I'm on. If I try to use the cast feature pulling down...

    6.0.1 installation error

    Heads up... If you relock the bootloader on the Nexus 6, you'll wipe all the data on your phone. Posted via the Android Central App

    How to enable the cast screen function in Motorola Nexus 6?

    Make sure your N6 is connected to the same Wi-Fi network at home that your phone is connected to. Many routers broadcast on both 2.4gHz and 5gHz. If you T.V (for example) is connected to your 5gHz band and your N6 is on your 2.4gHz band, it won;t find any devices. It will only work if they're...

    Who's got MMB29Q (6.0.1 w/ Feb security patches)?

    I've got it on my N5 (AT&T GoPhone), N6 (AT&T GoPhone) and N7 (2013), No noticeable difference between 29Q and 29S. Anyone else?
