    Nexus 5 No Text Notification Sound Unless Phone Screen Is On

    I would probably just delete the cache partition to let it "optimize apps" on boot.

    I've got a Nexus 6P here, lets get some questions going!

    Ok, I'll try another one as my previous question did not get a reply. Does it get hot while being used? I heard that the 810s had some issues with heat and given the metal body it should sink it so that the touch can easily distinguish the heat. If so, is the heat just noticable or holding one...

    Nexus 5 No Text Notification Sound Unless Phone Screen Is On

    Could it be that the volume widget is messing with the actual system notification volume? Try faking a notification by sending yourself a message on any messaging app/email and just when you see the notification (and when the notification sound should sound) try raising the volume by pressing...

    System update to Rooted phone.

    Usually the procedure is as follows: 1) Replace the custom recovery with the stock recovery 2) ADB update or install the OTA from the phone menu 3) Root the newly updated os 4) Reinstall your favorite custom recovery. Please make sure to back up everything prior to attempting any of the procedures.

    Loose connecter?

    I have a reason to believe that it is by design. Often connectors have enough give to migitate the risk of damaging the socket of the device by instead being able to fall out when enough excessive forces are applied. Could this be the case, given that two different cables are doing it?

    60fps video

    Well on a desktop with hardware acceleration it supports even more than 60- 120fps and up according to some articles. I'm not sure about Android or Chromecast though.

    Cases for the Nexus 6P

    All of the clear cases I've seen just ended up getting filled with dust. Dunno, maybe ceaning it like once a week would help... I've ordered the 6P and paid a fortune for it, so I'm more inclined to get something that actually protects it. I'm a purist, but given my track record with smashing my...

    Tethering at home through mobile hotspot, security issues?

    for added security generate the hotspot passphrase with any password generation tool you can find online. You can comfortably view it later if you need to pair any new devices. Do not share this password with anyone. If you do- make sure to change it afterwards. Use a VPN on your phone-...

    Impossible to add Google account after factory reset

    Do you have google apps installed? If not, I would probably root that thing and slap the CM on it. There's rarely more convenient times to unlock the bootloader those of an empty phone.

    Do you think the Nexus 6P is worth 700$?

    I ordered one from a scalper on ebay for about 860 eur (~970 usd) with all the import taxes in the EU. That's a lot, I truly hope that this device will we worth it.

    I've got a Nexus 6P here, lets get some questions going!

    I'm anxiously waiting for the unit I preordered on ebay, an expensive birthday gift for myself. If you lay the phone flat on the table- how big is the rear camera bulge gap? What are the dimensions of the black area?
