It's stupid as fuck that you need an OS update just to add in emoji.

Sad to hear. I was thinking of dumping Pushbullet and go back to Chrome to Phone, as that's all I use it for anyway.
Their suggested methods of going to the browser and typing it in is not nearly as easy as right clicking on something.
Surprised it's not in an update to the keyboard.
Wasn't the iPhone emoji update an OS update as well?

We know iOS is stupid about this. All of the core apps are OS updated vs App Store which is dumb as fuck.

I think that's because emoji are system wide not keyboard specific. I know I had to flash around with them on my LG phone to get back to the stock google ones so they are the same as the hangouts desktop experience when received on the phone.
Gonna flash 6.0.1 as soon as I get home. Time to go back to stock; the CM13 Nightlies still need some time in the oven, I think.
Will be nice to have the new emojis in notifications and Tinder. Whatsapp has had them for a while since they hack their own emoji keyboard in but they only exist within the app. It's annoying getting notifications with emoji that just display as a blank square (since all my friends have iPhones) and having to open whatsapp to see what the hell the other person means.

Mmm I thought its a Fatwallet/Befrugal cash back type of thing. If its free stuff for being in a store, I may be able to use it. I got tons of Android phones.

It'll tell you what kind of points at each store. You can get points for walking in. Points for scanning certain items. Then points for buying shit if your card is linked. I just mainly do the first one aka walk-in kicks.
Like Best Buy has 100 points for just checking in when you walk-in.

The creator of supersu Chainfire has found a way to make it work without modifying the system partition. It's in beta on xda right now.

Nova Prime is only 99 cents on the US play store. Get on that noobs and say goodbye to your touchwiz or your LG bullshit or whatever else.

Feels like the days of everyone ROMing, customizing, debating over 3rd party launchers ect... has passed.
People just want to use their phone and for shit to work.

At least 3-4 years. I have had it on my previous phone and I am on year 3 of my current one. Best thing about it to me is that it's not fancy and gimmicky, it just takes stock and adds all the little niggling options you might want, like grids, gestures, and settings for drawer, folders and so forth and it's super fast.

Haha I work next to a mall and have a few prepaid phones, I am going to destroy shopkick.
so Google's phone backup/restore doesn't offer much in restoring app data? (is there a list of supported apps?)
gonna replace my Note3 soon... phone's internal memory got corrupted... and data's gone
Nexus 6P or Note5 (or iPhone 6S)?
You can't go wrong with those three.
Just try them in store and see what you like best. Keep in mind that out of those, the Note5 takes some time to receive the latest updates, but Sammy is getting better at it and Touchwiz's Marshmallow is looking hot. It has unique and interesting features, though, like the S-Pen and note capabilities, and also rocks the best phone display on the market.

Has anyone actually gotten 6.0.1 via OTA?
Sadly, pretty damn high. This isn't instilling much confidence in me about Google's future with the device.
Nothing popped up, but not manually checked either. I mean, it's mostly emoji, they can take their sweet ass time for once.
Looks like a couple of reviews/announcements were already crawled by Google News, but are pulled for the time being.

I mean, it's Android and all, but WTF were they thinking putting this thing out without split screen being ready? LOL at them still not figuring out NVIDIA processors don't work with Android yet either.

I love how flabbergasted the guy was when Instagram goes in portrait on Android as if he's never used an Apple tablet. The way android handles Instagram on tablets is way better to how iOS does. Shit review as always
