Will the Nexus 6P work on Verizon?

Huawei should have partnered with someone that could do no interest financing OAC.

I would like to read reviews of their products in USA when sold by USA providers. Must be a reason nobody wants them

Re: 6P for Verizon ?

Quick question. I thought I "heard" that if you take the VZW sim from one phone and put in your new phone, when you log onto their website and look at your Account, the new phone name (ie. "Nexus 6p") won't be the name of the phone on your line. I think I remember it shows a blank picture and 'unknown' or some name. Not a big deal of course..
And secondly, does VZW Visual Voicemail still work on your N6p? I think that was another thing that doesn't work on the new phone. I could be wrong, just was curious.

Thanks!

Visual voicemail will not work until the phone is certified on the Verizon Network.

I took the SIM card out of my 2014 Moto X and put it in my 6P. Everything worked great immediately.

Speed test taken today on Nexus 6P VZW LTE.

Re: 6P for Verizon ?

Please don't laugh at me but I have a really stupid question. I took the SIM from my Verizon branded Moto X 2014 and put in my 6P. Everything worked right off the bat. But I used to have a Contact to call for Voicemail. Not Visual Voicemail but just to retrieve my regular voicemail. How do I do this on the 6P? Do I just dial * something?

Their partner wouldn't make any money. It doesn't make any sense

By the way for people that use visual voicemail you can just use Google voice for the same thing

When you bring up the dialer, do you see the voicemail icon under the number 1? If so, just long press the number 1 and you'll get voicemail.

That works! Thanks! And thanks for not laughing at me over my dumb question!

Re: 6P for Verizon ?

Same boat here- however it's not really any deal. You pay $1-200 upfront, however the month line access gets bumped from $20/m to $40/m for 24 months. So once you do the math- 20x$20= $480 + $100-$200= not worth it.

haha, no worries. It's not a dumb question! I've just used these phones since the Nexus One days (2010) so have a little experience

Re: Verizon

I ordered a Nano SIM from VZW. It arrived in a couple days. I avoid the brick and mortar stores.

Did you get your phone up and running?

Does advanced calling work? Were you able to set it up?

It does. I have seen other confirming this by being on a call and doing a speed test. You just have to add "Advanced Calling" to your account via the VZW Website.

My MotoX'14 doesn't support advanced calling, so it currently cannot be enabled on the Verizon website. If I switched the sim to the 6p will the Verizon website then allow me to enable advanced calling? Can anyone who has done the Moto X to 6P switch confirm this? TIA

Yes I linked to the post where someone did this on the 6P -- http://forums.androidcentral.com/nexus-6p/592486-6p-verizon-2.html#post4765565.

Because they'd only get paid the interest per each account? Yeah. It's probably not like that.

That example was a switch from the galaxy s6. Presumably advanced calling for the account number had already been enabled on the Verizon website.

If you get a phone (like the 6P) that can handle VoLTE you can then add the Advanced Calling to your VZW account. If not you could contact them to fix the issue.

Re: 6P for Verizon ?

So a person with 6P (funny how many new phones have a 6 in them - weird) goes into my verizon app the phone shown for his account will say Nexus 6P? Just curious. I know when I have previously done sim swaps my verizon mobile app lists the new type of phone right away. It always struck me as a cool thing.
