Yeah I'm power cycling the battery.



Gotta go get a new sim tomorrow too, the one they sent with the phone was screwed up somehow.

I don't carry a wallet so the leather case with a couple pockets works for me.. 1 cc and my license.. Done.

Everything else I scanned in.

I carry a wallet, an expensive one at that.

And the N6 has a curved back that makes it feel amazing and much more "usable" with just one hand, putting a case on it just negates that.

I seriously considered a wallet-style case, but I am at home too much and I figured it would get in the way more than it would be useful.

I carry an overfilled wallet with cards from places I don't go to anymore. The cards have stretched out the leather so removing them would make everything else too loose and more prone to falling out.

I've been using the same wallet for 15 years. Probably should get a new one.

EDIT: I ordered this case



I usually go through a couple of cases before I settle on one, though. If it ruins the one-handedness I might end up staying naked but with a tempered glass screen protector -- which I'm getting no matter what, once the reviews start coming in. Waiting to find out which full-coverage ones best accommodate the curved edges.

Just ordered this QuickCharge 2.0 car charger.

Use code PURE25 and it's on sale for just 22.49, best one you can buy and free shipping too. Great deal if you want a car charger that makes use of the QuickCharge 2.0 the N6 has built in (Google/Moto advertise 15 minutes of charging with QuickCharge gets you 6 hours of battery life).

I'm using the Spigen Slim Armor. It's not bad. I'm not really in love with the buttons. Hard to feel the separation.


I ordered the Orzly tempered glass from Amazon... haven't seen any reviews yet, so not sure if it's made to accommodate the curved edges or not.

Someone has made an app to enable double tap to wake.

Yeah I saw that. I want this feature, but I want to wait until it's more refined. Would be nice if it only responded to double-tap when the proximity sensor was exposed to light.

SwiftKey is shitting the bed pretty bad while I'm typing a post here. For example, that previous sentence didn't even show up until I touched the text box again. It's like it can't keep up with my typing unless I type really really slow.

I think this is a chrome problem. Sometimes my typing wont appear, but when I zoom out everything shows up.

Happened whenever I was using my 1+1, n5 and note 4

Yep, Chrome issue. Been an issue for awhile too.

I'm having a lot of lag issues with Chrome too. Not very responsive or snappy. Certainly not the hardware.

The SwiftKey lag seems to be only on tigerdroppings.com, and only in the desktop version of the site, not mobile.

Yeah. Been like that for a long time too, used to only use full version but had to go to mobile full time because of it, which really sucks with this beautiful big screen would rather use desktop view.

Usually if you pinch to zoom in then back out the text will pop up.
