    OnePlus 6 home page - hide the PIN unlock option?

    HAHA! I appreciate that. Any idea how many attempts somebody can make before it locks you out? I think I've seen to many movies where they crack the code....with seconds to spare....

    OnePlus 6 home page - hide the PIN unlock option?

    oh, that makes sense, thanks. I kind of wish there was a "secret" way to pull up the PIN entry, maybe a gesture or something.

    OnePlus 6 home page - hide the PIN unlock option?

    Oh, well, I see i did attach the screen shot. So anyway-I don't know why the PIN shows up when i turn the phone on. It would seem to me that would be "hidden." Now it gives someone the opportunity to enter a my PIN to unlock the phone. This is a 6 do it does not have the finger print scanner...

    OnePlus 6 home page - hide the PIN unlock option?

    When I activate my phone the home screen displays the screen unlock PIN option. Is there a way to hide this? I mean, why even give someone the chance to enter a PIN? It kind of defeats the purpose of the finger print scan. Thanks

    Buy now or wait for a 5G device?

    It's time to move on from Shamu. I was going to buy a new phone but with all the 5G news coming out I'm wondering if it would be better to wait until next year. I suppose they will all be $1000+ phones....sigh....

    Thoughts on upgrading?

    This is a great strategy. I got an N6 on Amazon for around $250 on Black Friday--the 64MB model. Yes, I'm "behind" in devices but is that a bad thing? As an average user is it awful that I don't have a 6P? Not really. The phone has everything I need and most of what I want. You won't ever...

    Shamu rises in 2016 - Nexus 6 day one!

    I tell ya, the detail in these apps is amazing. I was using Texta and of course this defaulted to the Google texting app. I wasn't aware of the screen not waking....that is a really helpful feature...thx

    Oh that's a good point. I had read that somewhere and then completely forgot it. It did not get the updated to Marshmallow so I'll take the card out..thanks

    Shamu rises in 2016 - Nexus 6 day one!

    Just moved from a first gen Moto X to a Nexus 6. I got it during Amazon's Black Friday sale--Midnight Blue 64GB for just over $250. The contract on my old phone finally expired so I'm just starting with Shamu today. Any "must have" or "must do" recommendations?

    [Closed] Win a Nexus 6P or Nexus 5X in our Fa-la-la-liday Contest!

    Hey Happy Holidays and thanks for the contest. I'd go for a 6P for sure. I like the size...really liking the back glass thing on the top...and the fingerprint scanner is perfect for Android Pay!

    Thoughts about the Nexus 6

    I just got a Nexus 6 during the Amazon Black Friday sale. An amazing price! Since I"m just getting underway with it I don't have a lot to say yet. But--so far it's all good. Super smooth, the size is way more manageable than I thought, and the fit/finish is great. I'll miss my first gen...

    Perfect timing! My 2013 Moto X is hanging in there but it took a dive into a cup of coffee and did a hard drop to the floor...it's getting ready for retirement!!
