Oh, well, I guess that's alright. Looks like it's going smaller, judging by those renders. Phone trends are weird. I like the size we have at the moment (iPhone 6 and Galaxy S5 are perfect) so why do things always have to change?
Have you checked the batter saver options

I'd really hate it if it doesn't have a removable back. I was checking ebay again and Qi chargers and receivers are dirt cheap now.
Yeah. I have battery saver as off.
At 15% my phone vibrates. And at 5% it turns down the brightness. =/
This is the trend though. It wouldn't surprise me if removable batteries were left for the mid-range market from here on out. Besides, a closed back doesn't mean you can't have Qi charging built-in.
Might just be the display then. Lots of reports that the G3 auto adjusts the display for power saving reasons.
Really? I'm still in contract with AT&T for now. Could I just call them and ask them to unlock the phone?

Hmm, I'm pretty sure I didn't have it before the Lollipop update. I'll try look into it further.
The phone is ATT locked, so you could use it anyway. You can unblock it using code, you can purchase that code in ebay; I'm guessing asking ATT to unblock it would be much more expensive than $5.
Just put the phone in file mode and drag and drop.
Can't you just plug it into your computer and drag and drop what you need?
VZ Navigator, VZ Ringtones, VZ Wallpapers, VZ App Store, NFL Mobile and VZ HotSpots now with Material Design!
AT&T unlocks phones for you for free if you aren't under contract. You submit a request and if you meet the criteria, it's almost instant. Did it on an iPhone last year.
Sounds good. Thank you very much.

I just had the issue again this morning and it almost made me miss work. The fact it's being considered obsolete is simply unacceptiple. And makes question Google's update policy when it comes to limited-spread bugs they just don't push them frequently enough.
I know OEMs take their time with Android updates, how often does Samsung for example push out bug fixes with their more frequent TW updates?
I'm dumping this POS for a Note 4 as soon as I get my next paycheck. I should be covered for 5 or so months before the next iteration comes out

Don't know about your issue, but factory reset means: welcome back to the stone age.
SD Cards normally are unaffected.

I just disable those. Not really an issue.
Sort of true. If you're phone is more than 90 days into your contract, ATT will unlock your phone for you. The catch is you need to claim you're traveling overseas. Has worked with all past phones I've had on ATT.

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
On a side note I think the switch the HTML5 YouTube wise is fantastic on the desktop.
To bad I don't get that type of performance via the app on mobile. Shit never auto detects the highest resolution for me, and for some reason I get this weird bug where if I click say 1080p instead of 720p on my N7 it acts like it hasn't switched. Yet if I randomly click a point further ahead that hasn't buffered in yet it flips. Then I just have to click back to the beginning of the video to get it going.
I have fucking 100 meg down 25 up internet too so it ain't the fucking bandwidth.

Supposed to be there by the end of the months... 4 MONTHS after release... seriously... fuck you Verizon. I have to ask, what benefit does Verizon have releasing it that late?
They are selling the Droid Turbo because people are straight giving up hope on seeing the N6.
I'd bet 20 bucks that the N6 launches with no VoLTE support, despite having baked an extra 4 months.
Youtube is on my shortlist. It's infuriating how bad it works on mobile phones, even on wifi, no matter what mobile OS, but somehow, once its sent to the Chromecast, works fucking PERFECTLY every time.

Meh. It's not like it's been a real 4 months since the Nexus 6 has been available. It's still a PITA to order for many people.
They get discounted product AND your sweet dollars.

has calmed down a bit.
MKBHD cracked the riddle. It's all about the silver silhouette.
That would be really strange if they brought the edge thing to the galaxy s6. cool concept,but I'm not sure that Samsung was successful in proving it's worth.
It's already known that there are 2 new phones at least, the S6 and a new Note Edge, with both sides edge glass.

I still have not seen any use case for the edge thing to exist. It just seems like a novelty.
LG, Sony, Microsoft, Xiaomi, Motorola, and Oppo plan on using the S810.
I'm guessing this means the G4, Z4/Z4C, Find 8, all come with godly battery life. Z4C better last at least three days with 9 hours of screen on time if the resolution is 750p.

I thought there was something wrong with my phone. It's incredibly annoying when the video starts at 240p, and refuses to switch over to 1080p. Google needs to fix that.
I used the edge and I wasn't really impressed. We'll see what happens.MKBHD cracked the riddle. It's all about the silver silhouette.

What phone do you use
lol users
I own a 64 GB iphone 5 but owned an LG G3 for a little bit last year. It cost me $578 off contract. There's a noticeable difference in resolutions between the two devices. However, outside of youtube, high resolution video, and wallpapers there wasn't a noticeable difference between the two devices.
Android is wonderful but way too difficult to micromanage basic settings that were button presses in ios. <--- Not trying to start a flame war at all and of course navigating Android gets much easier as you use it.
I come to Android for the best tech money can buy so eight hours of screen on time is reasonable considering Apple competes with an inferior battery based solely on Mah.
It's a shame. Fuck this Android platform.
