    Nougat / Android 7.0 on your Nexus 5X ... Thoughts and Tips

    I really like that we can change the size of objects on the screen as a whole, not just the text. I like using small text, and have everything scaled down to the smallest it allows. It makes the 5X screen seen bigger. It is definitely a lot smoother, even though it was already smooth. Another...

    How do you like your 5x? Regrets at all?

    No regrets here, coming from a Nexus 5. I don't see any lag in my unit. I think the lag lies in the apps and not the phone itself. Every time I see someone complain about lag it's an app I don't use. I never see any lag with the phone app, messaging, transitions, email, or opening web pages...

    May System update there then gone?

    Same happened to me today. But I actually downloaded the update, about 27.x MB I believe. When I hit "Reboot And Install" it looked as if it was going to do it but then went to the check for updates screen, and says my system is up to date. Posted via the Android Central App

    Advice on Nexus 5-like Android phone?

    Moto G, it's in the price range. "Stock with a few Moto Enhancements" is what they advertise. It is waterproof, customizable and has a Micro SD slot in case you need more storage. I just bought one for my sister and she loves it. But another $50 (from your $300 range) will get you a Nexus 5X...

    I will miss her, but it's time

    It's about time I upgrade as well. As for it not being durable, I think I got the Nexus 5 unicorn. I have never really had an issue with any software updates. None of the bugs I ever read about have I seen on my Nexus 5. I say unicorn cause I also cracked my screen about 4 months ago. After it...

    WiFi scanning for location services issue.

    I use to keep the WiFi Scanning for location services on before Lollipop. Since Lollipop, if it is on, WiFi is ALWAYS scanning killing my battery within the hour. So I turned it off hoping that the Marshmallow update(s) would fix this. I'm on 6.0.1 and the issue is still here. It's kind of...

    Android 6.0 Marshmallow for the Moto X (2nd gen)

    Updated my wife's last night. Everything went by smooth. The November security update broke her ear speaker functionality will in calls and she had to use it on speaker phone. This update fixed that, but it didn't include the latest security updates which is kinda dumb. But so far everything...

    Yeah I do get LTE, and so does my wife's Moto X. Sometimes pictures take a little longer to send than it should. But everything works great. Posted via Android Central App

    Smart Dialer not working

    Make sure the setting is on in the dialer settings. I forgot I turned mine off, and was wondering why it wasn't working. I just had to turn it on again in the dialer settings. Posted via Android Central App

    So I turned off, "OK Google" voice detection on at all times, and Screen On Time had significantly improved. Posted via Android Central App

    TERRIBLE battery life after Marshmallow

    I had the same issue, I found out it was the "Always Scanning" setting for location services. I turned it off, and wiped the cache. After I turned the phone on, then the setting on again, WiFi stopped killing my battery. Now, Doze works for me, but screen on time is still pretty bad, worse than...

    MMS Straight Talk Issue. CORRECT APN SETTINGS

    These settings i posted screenshots of worked for me. I had the same problem. It did take a couple days of searching multiple sources. The APN settings I got off Straight Talk's website didn't work. Neither did the APN settings they sent to my phone via text. Posted via Android Central App
