yea i must have just hit OK on initial setup when that came up, odd that you only see the option when setting a pin and you cant just turn it off normally
It should've asked you when you set up your lock screen PIN/Password. I just wiped my OPO last week and installed a fresh CM12.1 ROM and I had the same experience. Same experience also when I unboxed my 6P and implemented a password.
You probably clicked past that screen or whatever. There's too many prompts today that if you mess one up you're screwed.
Has anyone upgraded from N6 to N6P? One thing I absolutely love about the Motorola phone is its Radio. I have T-Mobile and at work nobody besides people who use Nexus 5/6 gets any signal, we Nexus users enjoy crystal clear calls and LTE. How is the radio on the 6P? Never heard of Huawei before, I hope they are as good as Motorola. I am looking for user experience, not snippets from paid reviews.
i should know in about a week
Anyone? any updates yet on the radio/antenna/signal quality?
So whats the general verdict? My oneplus is really starting to piss me off and I need a reliable phone for work
The camera app is laggy? The only laggy part I found was switching to the front camera. My personal complaints about the Google Camera App are as follows:Anandtech Google Nexus 5X Review
I agree with the 5X's low light camera ability but surprised that they didn't bash the camera app. Camera app is so laggy and buggy. I'm also forced to reboot it often when taking pics b/c the camera app won't connect to the camera.
The camera app is laggy? The only laggy part I found was switching to the front camera. My personal complaints about the Google Camera App are as follows:
- The AF indicator is absolute bullshit. How do I know its achieved focus or failed to find focus. The old AOSP camera of showing green or red made more sense. This is critical with closeup shots where I'm unsure if the camera has achieved AF or if its struggling. Sometimes its hard to tell based on the sharpness whether its there or almost there.
- The shutter sound needs a real click.
[*]The lack of adjustment for Exposure Compensation is disappointing. Since iOS8, the drag feature is extremely useful. Instead I just keep tapping around the screen trying to figure out when the metering will meter to something I like.- Burst mode is god awful. Look at how iOS does it. The shutter sound click makes it distinct so you know its shooting 10 fps like a machine gun. Also the ability to review burst mode pictures by dragging across a bar like a video to go frame by frame is very nice. In Google Photos you just scroll picture to picture--useless.

You mentioning burst mode must mean you're talking about the 6P and not the 5X. Just today after using Snapchat(which is laggy as hell too), the camera disconnected from the camera app just giving me a black screen forcing me to reboot the phone.
Sunday night while trail running with my dogs, I had runkeeper running and I stopped on a few occasions to take pics. Several times, the camera wouldn't even allow me to take a pic or would take a pic only not to process and create a pic. Then finally disconnecting from the camera app, not allowing me to take a pic til we got back to the car and I rebooted the phone.
I did not see burst mode in the stock camera app. Am I missing it?
I just got my 5X yesterday. I haven't played with the camera that much, but the app and picture taking seems to work fine.That definitely sucks about the camera on the 5X, I would have thought more reviews would have mentioned it.
I received my Graphite 64gb on Monday night.
After installing all my apps and setting up the phone, its really nice. First full day (yesterday) my battery life was not so good (coming from iphone 6+), I think mainly because I was showing a lot of people it and using it more than usual. I'll see how it spans out for the next few days.
Does anyone know if there are any apps that take advantage of this screen res or does it just upscale? The ones I noticed first are Outlook and NFL Fantasy apps..they use more screen real estate than their iOS versions.
Also does the ambient display work for you guys normally? I never see it come on. I have the pulse light notification on and a pebble smartwatch....maybe these interfere with it?
Not sure, but if you have a Pebble, why use Ambient Display? I believe it hurts standby battery life, at least it did on the Nexus 6.
My 6p just came in. Volume and pictures seem to work well for me.
VashHT, did you get the frost too?
Yeah I got a frost 128gb, I'm pretty happy with it so far. My battery life seems to have gotten a bit better, when I first got it google services was eating up a lot of battery but it's lowered quite a bit now, maybe it was just the initial setup but android phones always seem to take a few days or so for the battery life to level out for me.
