HI guys,
Loving my Nexus 6 so far, although it's a bit of a fingerprint magnet (blue). I encountered something weird this morning. One minute it was normal but about 1 hour later I wake my nexus 6 and all my homescreens have been reset and Google now needed to be activated again. I'm assuming it's a Google now launcher bug and was wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

Hi there,
since a few days I'm experiencing some strange behaviours on my One.
It randomly wakes up the screen and shows the regular lock screen. After about 10 seconds it turns off again.
I can't remember I installed something special the last days, just the regular updates via Play Store.
The device is rooted, but it worked fine for the first weeks, so i guess this has nothing to do with that.
Anyone experienced similar issues?
So the past few days im noticing that when i hold the home button to view open tasks it freezes while im looking at the open tasks. I just had a major lock up saying keyguard fc. I have to hard reboot to cure it. The LG hype is over for me. Hoping the nexus x arrives next month. Anyone else experiencing similar?
so i think i found my solution.... not too sure just yet.
i had my phone on ART, just switched back to dalvik and so far no problems as of yet
My Nexus 6 is compeletely stock and untouched software. I have attached screenshots from Nexus 6 (5.0.1) and Note 3 (5.0) to show the point I'm talking about.
When I'm sleeping as you can see on the Note 3 it has very few awakes. But Nexus 6 on the other hand is almost always awake. It drains about 20-25% battery overnight.
I have performed factory reset 3 times and now it has almost no additional apps installed but still the same. (don't judge by the facebook on the screenshot it's just installed and the problem is the same with or without it) I'm not rooted so i can't use the wakelock detector. I've installed GSam and it shows Android OS and Android system as biggest drainers for the current situation (16%, 6%) which i suspect nothing extraordinary.
I have play services 6.7.76 on both devices if it has anything to do with it. I tried something like turning the ambient display off and some other settings to see if theyre waking it but no luck yet. Do you think it is a software thing and Google will eventually fix it and I should wait or what should i do?
I really want to keep this phone but the battery is a big concern for me right now. every morning seeing the battery down without touching the phone is a big problem. Any help and information on the subject is appreciated.
Edit: I have added a screenshot from safe mode. I restarted in safe mode to see if any 3rd party is the cause of the problem. But the problem persists. And I have noticed that when the wifi is compeletely off (Keep awake, Always scanning etc.) the problem is solved. But whenever i turn on the wifi, even when it is not connected to any network, it starts draining battery and keeping phone awake like on the graphics. Can anyone give me a hint if this can be a hardware related issue with the wifi receiver? Or it looks like a software issue and can be solved with the 5.1 update? I have 3 days to return the phone if its a hardware thing. Thanks
You should probably update to 5.1 and see if that helps.

Do you know if it is a common issue and 5.1 fixes it? I've checked the updates but nothing showed up so far. I'm close to 14 day window for my T-Mobile purchase so i need info on 5.1 about this issue and i didn't see anything related :/

You might have the sensor ind bug that was in 5.01 that kept the phone from sleeping properly. From my short experience with 5.1, it's gone. Hard to tell about your situation without screenshots from better battery stats and the app list.

Thank you for the info. Root is not an option on the Nexus 6 cause my sister will be using it and she's not a techie. Without root I can't properly see what keeps it awake :/ As i said, besides the screen, biggest consumers are the Android OS and Android system in Battery settings list. But they're similiar on the Note 3 too so i dont think i can get somewhere with them.
I guess i will have to wait for 5.1 and hope it is fixed as you've said. Do you know what sensor is causing the sensor ind error? Does it have anything with the Ambient display?

Do you use Microsoft Exchange services?
I mean, did you setup other e-mail accounts. Like- Outlook, hotmail .etc??
Because last time I found, that service kept my phone to always wake up..

Oh yeah it has a hotmail account set up besides gmail. I will remove the hotmail account and restart the phone at night and observe in the morning again. Thanks for the suggestion!
If it is the problem, how did you overcome the issue? Are you using browser for your exchange mail account? If so, it will be a pain not getting mails to the app :/
Made some edits on the original post. If it helps..
Hey guys, so I've had a bit of an weird issue recently, it started up randomly, I hadn't installed any new apps or anything.
I had rooted my phone and gotten TWRP stuck on it so used Wugfresh to flash it out. During this I fully reset the phone to the stock ROM. Even after this I had this issue. Check attached files for an example of what it looked like.
I thought, maybe it was an app that I had installed previously? So I booted to safe mode and waited a while, and sure enough, the issue persisted.
Today, the Stock 6.0 ROMs were released. So I thought, might as well flash it, my device is being RMA'd for another issue (top speaker loudly crackling when audio isn't being played). So I flashed the 6.0 Stock and left it lying on my laptop for a few minutes as I chatted with a friend on facebook. And sure enough, what's floating there at the bottom of the screen? An empty toast notification.
This is a completely fresh flash. This was on the first screen before I'd logged in or set it to restore my apps or anything. This is the screen where you hit the arrow before adding Wi-Fi and such.
What could this be?
TL;DR: I have constant toast notifications and they're there regardless of safe mode or clean flash. They even exist between major updates (5.1.1 > 6.0)
I have the same issue on my stock ubrooted nexus 5 running 5.1.1
It's driving me crazy! My nexus 6p can't come in the mail any faster!

I've sent in an RMA for my Nexus 6, hopefully I get it replaced. I'm going to use my brother's old iPhone in the meantime while I wait for a response from them, and then leave my replacement unopened and resell it on kijiji. I can't trust my N6 to last when after only around 8 months it's crapping out like this.
Having the same issues on my Nexus 5. Anybody found out?
UPDATE: I installed an Xposed module called Enhanced Toasts, it logs all the toast shown in the device. In my case the Sim Toolkit app showed these blank toasts, i recently changed my SIM.
On my first Note 7 the Samsung keyboard was really laggy. I switched to the Google keyboard and everything was ok with the speed of typing (accuracy is still bad with Google keyboard). Now with my Note 7 replacement both keyboards are laggy. I type and the letters appear 0.5-1 sec later from time to time. The vibration of the keyboards is also off. Has anybody the same issues?
I did when I used Smart Switch to do a full swap on my device... my new device I moved over data via alternative methods and only restored Settings, Call history, S Note, and Messages with Smart Switch... it's working allot better this time I did a similar thing on my Note 4 when I temporarily reverted during the recall and saw a similar performance improvement

Hmmm. I did a complete clean install after I got the replacement and I got the OTA update. I even installed all the apps newly. I didn't restore anything. Might try another factory reset.
Almost every Samsung phone I had has had a leggy keyboard, my note 4 was really bad. Even after flashing different roms and what not on my note 4, it was still Larry. My note 7 has been pretty decent actually
Do you guys know what's going on with mine? I notice sometimes I'll get a notification and for a split second the notification doesn't fully load at top. Here's a screen shot to show you what I'm talking about. I also just put it side by side my other note that I'm returning and got the same notification while same app open and it didn't do it on the other note. Wtf.
google keyboard lags, samsung keyboard lags aswell.
just installed swiftkey. well see how that turns out.. seems OK so far
I turned off nova accessibility and it fixed the issue for good for me.
