    Carrier Unlocked Nexus 6

    I bought my unlocked 64GB N6 on Amazon (sold by Motorola) for $549. If you're a prime member you'll get it in 2 days. I think the 32 GB version was $499.

    I love it.

    Just got mine yesterday. I'm down range working with the Army so internet is super slow, which meant downloading 5.1.1 to my Surface took forever, and app updates have taken forever. Mine came with an Android 5.0 Developer build so I had to flash 5.1.1 from the get go. So far everything is...

    Location settings

    Hey, you may already be aware but Facebook is a huge battery vampire. I deleted FB and FB messenger from my 2014 Moto X and my battery performance improved dramatically, like 30% more at the end of my day. Not sure if you have FB on your phone but it could be a culprit.

    Mobile data/T-Mobile issues

    Just saw this thread. Just bought an N6, waiting for it to be delivered. I'm working overseas and they wouldn't ship it to me so my wife had to send it. Anyways, just wanted to chime in that I've seen a similar issue over here with my 2014 Moto X on 5.1.1 with a Roshan sim card installed. It...

    Nexus 6 image...what would you do?

    OK, here's the scenario. I decided I wanted a N6 because they've been discounted. Bought one on Amazon from Motorola, wife is sending it to me because I'm still working down range with the Army. I plan on using my Roshan sim in it until I get ready to travel home, then I will pop in my Verizon...

    After 5.1.1 heat and performance issues persist while web surfing

    Hey rhea thanks for the info, I downloaded and tried Chrome Beta and it runs cooler than anything I've tried so far, and it seems to work pretty well to boot. I also had heard that the Facebook and FB Messenger apps were really bad for battery life. I didn't believe it at first, until I removed...

    After 5.1.1 heat and performance issues persist while web surfing

    Figured I would ask here since general Google searches haven't given me any ideas on how to fix this. I have a Nexus 9 32GB Wifi model. Right after I got it the 5.1.1 update dropped, so I enabled the developer tools in order to side load the image. Currently running build number LMY47X...

    Should I get the nexus 6 or wait for new nexus In the fall???

    I'm in the same boat, or, on the same fence I guess I should say. I have a perfectly good Verizon Moto X 2014 16GB bamboo, but the Nexus 6 is calling my name. It would be a significant upgrade over my current handset, no bloatware, and I can get a 64GB version from Google for $549. I'm also...
