Google Nexus 6 by Motorola Users Thread

[HTCandroid]

IIRC the N6 uses an AMOLED screen, so that's normal. (And it's the reason I prefer a nice LCD over an AMOLED. I love the recent Moto hardware design, but AMOLEDs really make me question it.)

 

This is my first AMOLED phone. I've read about burn-in but never actually saw it in person until now. Going forward, I agree about preferring LCD. I literally love everything else about the phone.

Not sure if this has already been brought up but is anyone else experiencing burn-in on the top and bottom of their N6?

When the Nexus 6 was first released there were a bunch of reports of burn in. Personally I have not seen any burn in on my device.

I have it on the top and bottom. Much worse on the bottom though.

There used to be an app to invert the colors to reverse the burn in or use a white background.

I have never had luck with those apps. I tried one on a demo phone once. It ran for hours and made no difference. They may ave worked on older AMOLED screens, but I don't think they do anymore.

Same. A lot more noticeable on the bottom. The icons on the top make it less noticeable to me.

I've tried an app that did that and a 10 hour long youtube video that rotated colors with no luck.

 

I have to just deal with it which isn't that big of a deal. Still give the phone 5/5 stars.

You would have to keep the colors inverted for days to fix it. They say 8-15 hours but that's not proven.

Loving my Nexus 6, but I see no reason to go for this year's Huawei Nexus. I wish that Google would have kept the larger screen and dual speakers going forward. If the N6 had better screen brightness it would be in my hands for a very long time.

They will both have front facing speakers. The nexus 6 is a great device. Still no lag its lagged on me a few times in the 10 months that I have had it but overall it's a rf champ, good speakers, stock Android and great specs. Can't ask for much else. I'm just mad that on Sprint I owe $430 on my nexus 6 but on amazon you can get it brand new for $350. Talk about a ripoff. Google priced the nexus 6 to high

My wife likes things big, so she ordered a nexus 6 off Amazon, $400 for 64gb. I'm waiting to see what the new nexus devices bring, seems like the specs aren't going to be that much better than the 6

For those that are interested in the new N6P, we do have a thread for it, but I don't think its getting a lot of attention due to the fact that its tucked away under "misc" but regardless here are the links...

I recently noticed that I connected to a tower with a "squared" symbol.  Does that mean carrier aggregation?  If so, I thought the Nexus 6 was NOT on the list of devices that work with Carrier Aggregation?

It means that you have found a second carrier of B41.  But it is not using two at the same time.  It will use one or the other.  As you say, the Nexus 6 does not support Carrier Aggregation on Sprint.

I though clear towers don't get second carriers?

That may be the case, I don't know specifically -- but if someone is aware for certain, then it's a bug in SignalCheck that I will need to fix.

You've missed quite a bit apparently. Clear sites with Samsung RRUs deployed late in the Clear conversions can have second carriers and CA.

Does Florida use Samsung clear gear?

As far as I know all samsung clear gear support up to 4 carriers of B41. But their are 2 different versions, newer ones support CA.

 

But regardless, even without CA the older ones support a ton of capacity, only once wimax is disabled.

I sold it already. Nexus 5 for now. I'm going for one of the incoming nexus phones. I already have enough to get 5x but i will probably go for the 6p. Or even the note 5 and just keep my nexus 5 as my main backup phone.

What if the 6P doesn't support Sprint? Will you go 5X?

Really? Now ask yourself why google would make a device that supports Sprint on one device and not on the other?   Pretty sure Sprint will be supported and if not I will get a Note 5.
