So what are your thoughts so far?

Day 3 and Im very pleased with this phone. The smoothness, speed, and non lag or freezes fills like Iphone quality. I know that the 1st complaints about WP7 was the ugly square tiles but now that Im using the OS and all that comes with it, I love it! Its all microsoft had claimed it would be. Its Very easy to manage and hassle free! Its just a breath of fresh air not having to deal with so many home screens and/or feeling like having to pass thru an obstacle course to do anything. I believe they went the wright direction with this OS, its simple looking but modern @ the same time. Transitions and effects are very smooth. My only complaint is the external sound quality of the speakers but HTC does have an audio enhancer app (free available) so lets see if that does the trick. But overall Its definitely a beautiful solid device. P.S. for those a little upset on not having a removable SD card, you do get 25g of storage on Skydrive so that kinda works out pretty good all tho I heard that it does come with a SD card, its just hidden. But it will void your warranty if you remove the sticker above it.

i have had mine for about 24 hours and yes it is a great device,cant keep my hands off it.i just cant wait for more apps and games.i would love to play tiger woods on this big screen.

the phone itself is pretty solid; the plastic back is a non-factor to me. screen is vivid enough that i dont care that it isnt amoled. although i do wish that the headphone hole is on top instead of bottom

I've seen many complaints about the headphone jack location-- I'm genuinely curious why you prefer that? My experience with top headphone jacks is that the cable always gets in the way of the screen.

I really miss having LED notifications and for me the battery life is TERRIBLE. Just using my phone for texts and emails all day at work im down to nothing and have to charge it. This is NO browsing or media at all. I feel thats bad.

Headphone hole on top or bottom for me i dont mind but coming off the Samsung Vibrant its a relief to have the usb on the bottom cause charging the phone in the car and talking on the Vibrant at the same time was a pain.

just came back from the T-Mobile store and I have to say this phone is even better than I expected. Microsoft has really done an amazing job for this mobile OS. I never thought I would ever see Microsoft eclipsing iOS when it comes to fluid and seamless user experience but WP7 has done exactly that. Those that said Microsoft is not going after Android but iOS, they were absolutely right.
I just couldn't believe that I was actually enjoying such speed on a last gen cpu based phone whereas the MT4G just sitting next to it seemed like last gen, weird! Pinch to zoom is even better than the Apple 4G and just the overall experience feels very next gen as I'm just tired of the endless widget based UI, but that's just me. To those that are still sitting on the fence, I just want to say that before you make a decision based on forums and youtube videos, go to your nearest T-Mobile store and test the HD7 out for yourself. I'm glad I did.

1 full day
I'm liking it pretty well. Here is a couple of things:
The voice dialing is dead on, but it looks like I have to go back thru my 1200 contacts and change all the "car" #'s to "other" because they are not showing up...it may confuse it to have a "mobile" # and a "car" # for the same contact.
It appears to have really good reception (I have used a Fuze, Sprint Epic, G2, and MyTouch 4G from the basement of a custom home our company is building and the HD7 has done the best on pulling in a signal).
From what I have looked at on the Market, it appears that many apps are just not prime time yet, but let's hope they get better.
One thing I REALLY want to see is Speech to Text on this phone. If they could get Dragon Dictate like whats on the MyTouch 4G, this phone would be exactly what I would want in a phone.
I'll add some more later.

this phone provides the best 'out of the box' experience that I've ever had - by a long way.... Simply unpack and start using, very little modification necessary once you get used to the live tiles.
I do wonder if I'm going to get a bit bored with it though.... part of my 6.5.x enjoyment was 1) *****ing about poor performance and then 2) doing my best to resolve said performance issues. Don't think this is going to be necessary with the HD7 - as it just works.
not a bad problem to have I guess......

I agree with that, the battery could be better. I still dont understand why they keep building these awesome devices with poor battery life.

I don't have this problem. I streamed tmobile tv for half a day and only 1/4 of the battery was gone, that include browsing, play twin blade, use voice search, voice dial, looking up maps, making phone calls and textings.
Did you guys bleed your battery first or just charged it to full and started using it?

i found a 1500mha battery made by htc and fits like oem.. the htc wildfire uses it.. gonna go ahead and order that one.
tonight it was the first time taking pics in the dark and i have to say the flash is to damn intense.. need to be far from object otherwise u blind the **** out of people, lol ..there is no brightness setting ...i also found the camera botton not that soft to press ..u have to kinda press it some how a bit hard .. im gonna have to go back to store and check the other hd7

Gotta say, after the first few day's use, the battery on my wife's phone is doing really well. Don't get me wrong, she's not hammering it during the day, although I do in the evening, but last night it still had about 1/3 of the battery left (according to the little icon anyway which is infuriatingly difficult to interpret!).
The bigger battery sounds promising though!

are you sure it fits? let us know if it works, if it does work ill buy one too.

Searching Google lists many 1500mha batteries for the HD7..now im curious.
Just ordered one. We will see.

The biggest battery saving step I took was going into settings->email and accounts, and for each account, making sure 'download content' wasn't set to 'as they arrive'.
Unless push email is vital to you, this changed my phone from lasting about 6 hours to lasting 48.

Extended batteries available?

Mugen doesn't have any extended batteries for the Note 2. Any other producer offering these so far?

Did you even TRY to look at the many thread about this?

search "air strike" in this forum, lol :silly:

I agree with both of you that it's damn irritating when an idiot keeps asking the question that's been asked a hundred times before...
The problem here is that if you browse the forum on the phone itself via either the xda or the xda hd app, their search functions are crippled, and you can't search in a forum. So the search gives you a million useless results from other forums.
Thus the only solution, it seems to me, is to just keep leafing through the forum threads manually and it doesn't seem to be easy to identify a result...

No hard feeling, we all have time when it's unbelievably hard to find something (like a remote control of the TV lol) :highfive:
I do believe that it is better to give out information than to educate. No offense to #2 post though.

I found one here:

But didn't try yet. Just for your reference.

Thanks. As a matter of fact I searched on ebay and bought one 8500 mAh one from Singapore, waiting for it to arrive...

8500 mah battery - Is that even necessary? Do you really go that long without your charger?

Yes, it's really necessary. I use tte phone all day long, it's on permanently, screen on, without the charger.
That's why this battery is a godsend.

Can you post a photo ?
As ridiculous as it may seem, I kind of want one!

Maybe tomorrow. I was very surprised though how elegant the phone looks with this battery. It's the new back cover, has very smooth curves, I like it a lot...

I'm a heavy user, I love my 4600mah battery for my gs3, looks like I get the gn2 tomorrow; so i'm looking at this battery and drooling. I know exactly what you mean about fitting in your hand. I spend my time doing anything from navigation while making phone calls or streaming music, extensive skype usage, constantly in my browser.. fpse is my favorite pastime (and, in fact, why i want this phone, the extra screen will be perfect for gaming those dusty ps1 games in the closet). I've been known to blast my hulu or netflix anytime anywhere, and i like my screen on bright, with all my services running like gps constantly. I get 10-12hrs of screen time depending on my usage..
any way we could get some benchmarks? how much screen on time are we talking? are you gaming, or just reading a book, or streaming video?

No, I don't feel like benchmarking anything.
Basically I can confirm though that this battery is supposedly almost 3x the capacity of the stock one, and based on my experience so far this is indeed so. Thus, I think it's a high quality battery, and whatever you're doing with the phone, you'll be able to do almost three times as long.

I personally think extended batteries are not required for the Note 2, so far this is the best Android phone I have ever used and the battery lasts a day under heavy usage...

[POLL] Who's actually happy with the N4

Are you?
EDIT: If you're unhappy, speak up here.

Minus the little EMI interference on the earpiece, absolutely. Super fast, great battery life, beautiful design.

Exactly what he said - I only get the interference in calls and not every call. Other than that, awesome phone.

I am really happy with it as well. I came from a epic 4g to this so it is an amazing difference. Better battery life and super fast.
I think it is all relative. I am sure people jumping from much better phones like GS3 will not be as impressed with this device as I have.

Same here.

OP, you may want to keep this poll open a bit longer considering some of the limbo/backordered people are only now getting their phones shipped to them.

With a piss poor camera and a lackluster display with it's specs I am happy for the price I paid but if this was $500-600 off contract I would stay away myself... I have a Note 2 and an S3 and my Note 2 crushes this phone IMO and the S3 is close but then again it does not offer you that pure "GOOGLE" experience either and the S3 has soo many tweaks out and better optics and display (IMO) it's just what you want out of your device but I am thrilled to own it! It will definitely be my flashaholic phone!
EDIT: Okay guys I have had it for awhile now and I DO think the screen is VERY nice so I take away my comment from above but I am kinda disappointed in the camera's but who cares really! I am charging it wirelessly as I type... Time to start flashin!
;( I wish they would let me change my vote.... lol This just goes to show that you can NEVER judge a phone or anything for that matter, before it has been FULLY tested and I admit I spoke too soon! I LOVE the N4 on my T-mobile $30 Monthly 4G plan! You just cannot compare this phone to any other!

Oops, accidentally gave the guy above me a thanks. But I'm completely happy with this device. There is absolutely nothing I would change about it.

Opinion is just that and since he didn't ask what phone you thought was better, maybe you should have kept it to yourself? Its troll bait and as you state twice. Just your opinion.
Of course, If I spent as much as you on those two other phones (which, IMO are not even close to this phone) I would try to justify it just as badly as you have, ..

Maybe u should add something to the poll like:
"I can't evaluate this because Google is too incompetent to ship the Nexus 4"

LOL No hard feelings, I love the device but it's not the only device out there... Enjoy everyone!!

pretty happy with my n4 however my bottom left corner squeaks when squeezing it lol.... anyone else with this problem?

I read so many posts of people being upset about this or that so I was skeptical, but now that I have had it in my hands for 2 days........I love it its the best phone I ever had. I am on T-Mobile and came from a One S and a S3 and don't miss either device. The hardware feels premium, much better than the S3 and right up there with the One S which despite its shortcomings had great build quality which I missed when I moved to an S3. I will be sticking with my Nexus 4 for a while.

Better than my GNex for sure , only bummer is that Android still produces low volume through the headphone jack

I came from an S3 and I have to say, I'm enjoying the Nexus 4 a lot more. As soon as I'm able to get my backups installed (Ubuntu and Android don't seem to be playing well unfortunately) I'll be able to enjoy it a lot more.

I'm coming from an Infuse 4G, so it's a big step and I'm definitely happy. The only real issue I have so far is that the phone slides if it's on a smooth surface that isn't completely flat. Like my laptop in its dock is a hair higher in the back than the front, and the phone doesn't stay put, it slides toward me. Same on tables, mouse pads, etc. Needs a little bit more friction.

Hoping some of the front/back skins I get will help. Also a minimal case.

[Q] Are you enjoying it?

Debating if I should get the watch or not, like to see some of feedback / reviews on your thoughts on those who own the wacth. I also been looking at the thread about battery life and other things, but overall do you feel like the watch is worth it?
Planning at stopping at AT&T to see if they have on on display for me to fiddle around with.

Love it. I'm not a watch person. Can't stand them but this has made me love them. It is a novelty but it is handy also

Absolutely. It is far from perfect BUT, the hardware side it's excellent implemented and this is offering Google Wear plaftform a solid base to grow. I expect to see may OTA's in the futures with fine tuning of some of the existing features and also with new stuff .
It is by far the best looking Android wear device.

From its exterior design it's not very perfect i.e. thick bezel, small screen compared to 360 but when I count every aspect including SoC, Sensors, Screen technology, build quality, etc, G Watch R is the best choice so far(except the expensive price).

Thank you for the feedback!

its to small

When it first arrived I noticed that the screen was much larger than it looked online - perhaps all of the side-by-side comparisons with the Moto 360 made it look tiny, but it's actually a decent size. The battery life was impressive after the system update that comes about 10 minutes after first setup.
I mainly use it for changing my songs while I'm out and about. You don't realise just how much of a pain it is to take your phone out on the bus etc to switch songs, but having a few taps of the watch is such a convenience.
The only flaw I've noticed with the watch is when, for example, you switch both your watch and phone off in the night, and wake up and switch your watch on *first*... it basically shows the time that appeared on the watch when you switched it off! e.g. if I turn it off at midnight, then in the morning it'll show midnight when I switch the watch back on. I have to sync it with my phone again for the watch to acquire the correct time again. Not a big deal, and I assume it would get fixed eventually, but still...

I never turn mine off. Just stick it on charge over night.

Thinking of jumping ship?? (6plus to N6)

Hi guys, I'm currently using a jailbroken iPhone 6 plus, and I'm thinking about jumping to the nexus 6. Had many android phones before. There are some things thought that I've read, and are bothering me! So I thought I'd ask a few questions..
Are the pink screen & screen burn a common issue with the nexus 6?
How's the battery life? Does it have a battery saver mode similar to the Sony Xperia's range?.
Is the camera really that poor?
Are there any build quality problems?
Cheers for your time guys.

This is my first Nexus phone and I don't have any of the issues that are discussed here. Battery life, for the way I use the phone, I can typically get 2 days from a charge. Even under heavy usage I have never had to charge mid day.... Heavy usage will still leave me with 40 to 50 % in the evening. I don't typically leave it on the charger over night but there are other that do.
I guess it depends a lot on what you do to the phone, haven't unlocked or rooted it yet so not much to mess it up. I had 1 random reboot after about 155 hours of uptime so I try to reboot a couple times a week. All in all I am pleased with the phone... just my 2 cents..

1) screen burn I've never seen but it in theory is possible
2) pink screen is a bi-product of setting your brightness to minimum whilst on auto. Its because its not possible to be that dim without dampening the white. It isn't an issue. Its just not possible to be that dim and also be whiye
3) great, surprisingly
4) yes, android lollipop has a battery saver built in by default
5) like any camera on a phone it won't make an amazing photographer out of a crap one. That said, the camera is fantastic. Look at some of our shots in the general thread for posting photos
6) not for me but surely there will be some as there is on every single thing ever made. Ever..

1) yes it's common
2) I hear stock kernel battery is ok not very good. but if you use custom kernel it will be increased alot.
3) camera is good in sunny outside. but still slower auto-focus comparing to iphone or Samsung. In low light, auto focus is just pure terrible.
3) only build quality issue I have is vibrator rattle. And mine is fine but i see alot of uneven color on the screen. I ended up turning off all vibration setting. Motorola in general don't know how to make phones right.

Do you guys think it's a worthy replacement for my iPhone 6 plus?

Difficult question to answer. Many of us would put most android phones above the iPhone. Especially here where we are the type of people who like to customise their phones massively. Even a jail broken iPhone pails in comparison to the options available to rooted users here. I don't want to put words in everyone's mouths but iPhone are restricted massively.
You would probably get better answers on an android user forum instead of a specialist android developer forum.
From a usage point of view, you may miss slow mo if you use it. Other than that, I personally feel that the n6 p*sses all over the 6 plus - but that is completely subjective. Who knows how much you'll even like android versus iOS

Well if this were a straightforward which should you buy question, without a doubt I would immediately say Nexus 6, however you've already spent a gajillion pounds/ dollars on your, actually brilliant (regardless of whatever fanboys say) iPhone 6+, and there is nothing at all bad about the 6+, the one fault for me is the fact that it only has 1GB of ram and iOS 8 needs 2gb for certain functions, but saying that, iOS 9 is set to be an optimisation update (like jelly bean or kitkat were for android) to reduce junk code, legacy code and unnecessary stuff rather than just chunking on extra stuff , and they really want to iron out the kinks, so I think that once that comes out your iPhone 6+ will be both super fast as it is already but pages and apps will last linger in the ram, so if that's a non issue or you don't mind waiting for that update then you're golden with your current handset. Most android apps are available on iPhone and run pretty much the same, some things even launch faster on an iPhone than they do on a nexus, of course the advantages of a nexus are that even out of the box you can customise far more than you can on an iPhone even with jailbreak. For me that's a non issue, when I was a few years younger I loved to do weird and whacky things with my droids and jb idevices, but now I just want stable, working, fast devices, I love my nexus 6 and wouldn't trade it for any other handset out there, but if I had an iPhone 6+ I would be over the moon with that too and wouldn't even bother with jailbreak as I just love it to work well and iPhones work really well, if you are really desperate to have an android device you could get a nexus 9 or nexus 7(2013) and have the best of both worlds and save a little cash.
While you have iPhone, check out Garage band, the infinity blade games, pixelmator and similar apps that are exclusive to iOS. Don't change over until next year's nexus phone is released, that's my advice, the iPhone is great and will only get better with iOS 9.
I hope this helps.

1) yes the iPhone may be a good phone for many. For me, it just doesn't do much of what I want. That doesnt make me a fanboy.

True but you're a minority, my advice was to someone who doesn't live and breathe coding and developing, people with your highly respected talents would probably either never touch an iPhone or would spend their days eating caviar with Musclenerd and Geohot
To the majority of the tech-savvy population there is no big reason why iOS cannot fulfill all of their needs. Netflix, Facebook, instagram, photography, video editing, gaming etc is pretty much all the same across both systems, it's only the specific kind of power-user that usually also tends to be an android fanboy and/or a developer that cannot settle for an iPhone to meet their usage needs. Sure I'd always recommend android over iOS unless the person really needed a simple device however my impression is that if this guy is asking the question, he doesn't NEED the dev friendly capabilities of an android device (or he wouldn't need to ask) and therefore to buy a £600ish phone when he already has a recently released £600ish phone is just a complete waste of money, even if he were to sell one for the other, the losses incurred are probably not even worth it. If it was an iPhone 5S, however, I'd say jump

what screen burn? ive had mine since november, and no screen burn.

Same, no screenburn whatsoever here and I use my device constantly - the soft buttons, battery icon etc have not burnt in at all. It's like asking "how bad is the 6+ bending?" A few people had the problem with the first batch of phones and it got blown out of proportion.

I dont think any of us said screenburn was an issue

Or just do what I did and keep both.
Actually be careful here or you will wind up with a drawer full of phones, sim card adapters, cutters, a laptop dedicated to customization, the list goes on and on. The wife acceptance factor isn't the greatest but when the alternatives are thrown on the table(drinking, spending much more money on pro sports tickets or tools, you know "man things") they usually back off.

Hi guys, I'm currently using a jailbroken iPhone 6 plus, and I'm thinking about jumping to the nexus 6. Had many android phones before. There are some things thought that I've read, and are bothering me! So I thought I'd ask a few questions..
Are the pink screen & screen burn a common issue with the nexus 6?

These are not issues at all.
How's the battery life? Does it have a battery saver mode similar to the Sony Xperia's range?.

Battery life is excellent. It goes into power save mode when the battery level drops low. I don't know anything about sony phones.
Is the camera really that poor?

Camera is excellent, easily beats the one in your current phone.
Are there any build quality problems?

Nope.

I agree except that the 6+ has a better camera but the differences are negligible. You can snap a great shot on both though.

All the BLIND tests (only sane way to compare when the devices are so polarizing) result in Nexus 6 besting apple by a landslide.
