    Cases for the Nexus 6P

    Agree. I have the hybrid and it is a great case for showing off the phone while adding minimal bulk. It has already saved my phone.

    Updating from Nexus 4

    Thanks for the replies, I guess I will not bother with the N4 when setting up the 6P.

    Updating from Nexus 4

    I am updating to the 6P in a few days from my Nexus 4 and I am wondering whether I should simply set it up using my usual gmail account as new and let it do its own update/restore from my Google account or use the option where I can pair the 6P with the N4 using NFC/BT at the options screen when...

    Love the phone! Some initial thoughts

    Re: 48 hours with my Nexus 6P! Here's what I think Thanks for the reassurance that it is not slippery when used naked. This seems quite balanced - I think I will just have to wait and see. I am upgrading from an N4 (which I used naked - extremely good coating on the screen and the glass...

    Love the phone! Some initial thoughts

    How slippery is the phone to hold? Is it very likely to fall out of one's hands because of the aluminium body or do the sides have some grip? Most reviews / posts I think do not mention much of this. The photos of the 6P however do show the metal edges but give no indication of how slippery or...

    If still on KitKat, can 5.0 be skipped by waiting for 5.0.1 OTA update?

    I am still not getting any 5.0.1 OTA notification.

    If still on KitKat, can 5.0 be skipped by waiting for 5.0.1 OTA update?

    It does seem that update will be possible from 4.4.4 to 5.0.1. The update notification to 5.0 disappeared on its own from my phone today.

    If still on KitKat, can 5.0 be skipped by waiting for 5.0.1 OTA update?

    So there will be an OTA for updating from 4.4.4 to 5.0.1? I am also still waiting on the update because of the several horror stories about the 5.0 update. Can wait - phone is running smooth and fast (am already on ART).

    Nova Launcher on Nexus 4 - Any users?

    Been using Nova on my SGS2 and now on the N4. No problems whatsoever. I actually prefer it. The latest update has added JB style widgets and a lot of other features.

    Contacts TO Gmail, then Sync

    AFAIK, the vCard way should work. Try a few at a time and then export to vCard and import in Gmail>Contacts. Otherwise Samsung should have a PC link and use Outlook as a stepping stone. I do not think there is any way to selective sync. There are several workarounds though: 1. Open a separate...

    Address Book

    Yes, that will happen. The phone will have contacts from 'phone', sim and your gmail account. If you do not want to bother to delete them, simply select display options and select which ones you wish to see. However, there does appear to be some glitch, since if only 29 were showing in your...

    Default numbers

    I would think that for a smart mobile phone OS, basic would include almost all features for managing contacts, phone number and messaging that basic (or other smart) phones have had for ages. Then one can add e-mail, browsing, BT, GPS, games, etc. and/or ways to do basic or advanced stuff...

    Default numbers

    And I forgot to add in my above steps that once you are done, you need to again go into contacts>display options>google contacts> select all to get back the default contacts display.

    Default numbers

    Probably, but this is basic stuff - all there on $50 (without contract) phones. It should be there oob.

    Default numbers

    Thanks, but I do not have that. I have display options and from there I can select only the groups set up in google contacts to display. I have no small group icon in contacts at all. There is no group option in edit contact either, whether I select PC Sync or Google as the contact type. I have...
