Good luck to all!!

That doesn't make any sense.

Your assessment is incorrect. It became defective as soon as they called it a "USB-C cable." USB-C has strict conformance standards, to which their cable does not meet. If they wanted to call it a "OnePlus 2 Charging Cable" that would've been fine. But the fact that they decided to call it a...

Loop your cable so it stacks on top of itself. Then cross the two ends over the top, and clip together. It should hold the loops together so they don't unravel... 1. Loop cable 2. Crossover ends

double post

It's a builtin "wire tie." Loop up your cable. Snap in the other end to the clip... voila! No unraveling cable.

There's no "mythology" ... either your cable has the correct pullup resistor, or it doesn't. And yes, all cables will "work," you just won't know there is any problem until your charger/USB-port/motherboard/etc., dies.

You are correct, for the most part. All USB-C cables should be able to handle a 3A draw, because it is part of the inherent design. So - any product with a USB-C port should theoretically be able to provide the proper current through the cable. However, there are some USB-C chargers that are...

I'm on ATT and have been sending MMS on hangouts on my 6P all through the holiday with no issues. Maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling hangouts? Or switch to WiFi and try again?

I just got an interesting response from JOTO about my cable. I emailed them (through Amazon) asking if they will be updating their product to comply with USB-C specifications and their reply, in a nutshell, was, "sorry you are unhappy with our product - we're issuing you a refund. Thanks." I...

Just got my official cables from Google... made by Foxconn...

I have the exact same issue with call quality, and I think I discovered the "problem" with the microphone. And it's not the microphone at all... Unfortunately, the 6P is so damn big, that when you hold it on your shoulder, or if you keep the speaker firmly against your ear when hand-holding it...

I've just discovered that my Nexus 6P is having some serious problems with certain search terms. For example, trying to search for "bar" or "bar nearby" sends me to the town of Bar, Hungary. I never had this problem on the Nexus 4, Nexus 5, or OnePlus One. FWIW I am in Denver - and no one else...
