    Trying to find out if this vibration noise is normal or not on the N6: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28717002/n6_vibrate.mp3 I know it's a strong/buzzy vibrator but particularly the clicking is what seems like it's not right. An easy way I found to test this is to grab this app...

    Help N6 mated with Moto 360 - notifications

    Soooo. I am not getting notifications on my Moto 360 even though it's mated and functioning properly. Any ideas? No email, no text, no Google hangouts, nuttin? I swear it was working initially. I am using all stock N6 (the built in text type app) Gmail app and the Yahoo mail app. Very odd.

    flash player

    I still use flash player. Mostly to stream sports. With kit-kat on my nex4 I used dolphin jetpack and side loaded flash. That doesn't seem to work on lollipop and I'm now using puffin and I hate it. Is there an option I don't know of?

    Any damage to your Nexus 6 (water, drops, screen scratches, etc.)

    In this thread, I'd like members to post damages to their N6. Weather it be on the back, on the glass, water, droppage, etc. From previous experiences with Gorilla glass 2 and 3, I've found the glass to be VERY prone to scratches from even very light use. I can't find a case or screen...

    Help Issues answering calls while using vehicle Aux input

    I normally use my car aux input for when I had a nexus 5 for music and calls. But I noticed that when answering calls on a nexus 6, it will forget that I'm using an aux connection, and connect my call through the normal speaker. I find this really annoying when driving and I can't find a setting...

    Help Not getting LTE

    First off, this thing is amazing! In total love, it's unnatural. But I'm having an issue already, and it's probably because I set up the phone without the SIM inserted. It's working, making/receiving calls and texts, but I'm stuck on 3G data. I assume this is because I don't have the correct...

    Help Nexus 6 randomly turns off

    Not even a week old and my phone has shut down twice for no reason, and not restarted without me turning it back on. I'm stock, no root, barely any aftermarket apps installed.

    N6 UK/overseas info

    Given that carphone warehouse has now got a pre order date of 01/12 I am getting excited that 3 won't be far behind and I may finally be able to upgrade from the note 3. I've been off contract and waiting patiently for 2 months now. Anyone got any news other than what's on the CW website?
