    Updated Google keyboard

    Finally, the missing link has been added for big screen Nexus users. A compatible keyboard for one handed use! Loving the ability to shift the keyboard, finally making 1 handed typing a reality. :p One thing tho, how do you now enter the keyboard options from the keyboard itself? Option seems...

    Nexus 6 visual dating clues?

    So I am planning on getting a used N6 from Swappa. Of course, I'd rather get a 6 month old one than a 2 year old one. Some sellers are not the original owners so they don't necessarily know the age. Are there any visual clues to determine an earlier or later production phone? I read you can...

    Accessories Good brand of glass screen protector?

    Hi all, I bought a two-pack of TruShield glass screen protectors. The first one had a "halo" effect because the far edges of all sides did not stick well. I thought maybe I just screwed up the installation, despite having done this many times on other phones. That first one cracked after a...

    Text notifications

    Does anyone else have their text notifications revert to some random number notification? Right now my notification is set to 37392 and there is no sound. I can change it to my desired notification but it somehow gets back some number again and I have to do it all over again.
