You need to put them in the right directory, and then they'll show up for selection.

/storate/emulated/0/Ringtones is the directory from a file manager, or if you plug in to your computer's USB, it'll be the Ringtones directory from Internal Storage..

So putting it in a folder named ringtones in File commander app won't work.

Ringtones in place!

Glad to be back home in the land of the latest Nexus devices and final frontier developments. I have to apologize for throwing a fit when the specs/price came out back in October. Too large, too expensive, I said! Well today, I'm still going to have to get used to the size (especially hitting that space bar) but this phone screams like a new jet from Lockheed! And Holy Moly it is worth the money!

I just am so damn excited about this phone I had to post a picture of it in use!View attachment 79750

Anyone know where to get the 64gb model? I have yet to be able to find one in stock anywhere.

My wife got me the 64 gb model with t-mobile she ordered it in November it was supposed to arrive by Christmas but apparently there were so many orders it got pushed out by two weeks, i am hoping it comes in this week in time for c.e.s
 
Mine should be here any minute now, it's on the delivery vehicle. I'm ridiculously excited! I took advantage of the play store app mentioned on here to alert me when there was one available in stock. Worked a treat, an alarm went off and within a minute or two I had ordered my 64gb N6! They didn't stay available for long so very grateful to the app!
 
My nexus 6 is now scheduled to ship sometime after the 15th of January so i should be getting mine between the 20th and 25th. I was given the opportunity to go with something else i could get faster but decided to stick it out for the nexus 6
 
Been spending some quality time getting to know the phone, and just got pleasantly surprised by one in particular; seems that whatever ringtone you assign to someone in your contacts list also doubles as their text notification sound! I love it! :D:D:D
 
Not sure what this means if anything but my tracking information shows the N6 is in Tennessee but it also says it's hung up in Alaska. How can it be in two places at once?



See here it says it's in Memphis. Hoping it's not delayed. :(

 
Leaves warehouse 1/9 (2015!?)
32gb cloud white
From google. Wanted the 64 but I don't think those exist.
2 day shipping

I used a new card. I hope billing address / shipping addy has no issues. If all goes well, perhaps I will see it next Wednesday or Thursday. Will see...

Just checked and its pending. Shipping address is different then billing. I suspect this may be a problem? Will Google cancel my order?

Ugh. My phone has sat in Memphis for more than 24 hours due to Motorola not dealing with the clearance issues. Just got notifications that the clearance issues have been dealt with. Also, got an email from Motorola saying that my device has shipped. Duh, FedEx told me that days ago.

My delivery date from FedEx was today by 10:30. Now it says it can't be calculated. My delivery date on my Motorola email said Monday. I'm betting Friday now that it's cleared the hurdles placed by Motorola not sending clearance info.
 
I had a chance to check out the nexus 6 at the consumer electronic show today all i can say is the phone was incredible i checked out maybe twenty five devices today there and the nexus 6 was probably the better phone of the bunch, saw some independent phones though that gave it run for it's money, can't wait to get mine
 
Wow, this thread is moving at a slow click. Way slower it seems then the past 3 nexus threads. Maybe because the very slow availability of the device?

Well, mine shipped this morning! Hopefully Monday I will have it in my hands...

Holy cow, might have it in had tomorrow! :eek:

My 64GB Midnight Blue Nexus 6 arrived today!

There is a difference between my 32GB White that I returned and the 64GB Midnight Blue that I received yesterday. There is a tramp stamp on the bottom of my 64GB that wasn't there in my 32GB along the bottom of the phone around the charging port.

It is the FCC ID and Looks like the Consumer Electronics logo.
 
"Out for delivery"
We had a freak ice storm here last night, in fact it was so slick that I slipped on a sheet of ice getting out of the vehicle after work. Banged myself up a little, but nothing major. Since I was unsure if I was going to be home to get the device I had it shipped to an alt address where someone would be home to receive it for me. Then they would bring it to me.

With the ice, if the device is delivered (its UPS...), I probably will not get the device until at least tomorrow after work. No point of powering it up and such before I have time to sit with it and root and maybe un encrypt the device (since from what I have read, I need to wipe the device twice?). But at least that will give me a chance to do more research on the encryption aspect. Its an extra step that I need to be aware of.

I would power it up and unlock it only. You can do that really quick, that's the only forced device wipe you'll ever be strongly suggested to do initially before loading any programs on a new Nexus. I was in the same boat, considering unencrypting the phone before doing anything further and to be completely honest, I wouldn't. It's probably like wasting time thinking if you'll want a 4K video feed piped to your 20 inch CRT monitor from yesteryear. Even with encryption set, the speed is SUPER fast. I use to think that my nexus 5 was fast, the nexus 6 runs laps around it.

I wish there was a way to just root without the bootloader unlock like the N5 had for a while. I will probably run stock rooted like I am now. I do know I want the updates to be pushed before I root.

I guess I got the whole day to think about things

EDIT
It arrived! But still will not get it in hand until tomorrow

EDIT II
Ordered a soft and hard clear spigen case for the beast.
