Works for me, have you altered anything. I'm 100% stock.

nope stock but forced OTA update.
its really odd you can see it try to do something and the screen goes blank white. if i click refresh it loads the same page i was on
not sure if it was a chrome setting or phone setting i cleared data on all 3 phone apps still nothing

Fixed reset chrome and bingo

[BUG] DamageControl 2.05

I would have added this to the thread, but it would get lost in the endless amount of posts that come per minute. Disabling SD Card Notifications does not disable them, enabling and disabling again does not disable it either. Even with the volume completely off when you plug in the phone to charge it notifies you via ringtone. Very annoying
If this is how you're doing it, maybe you should keep the first post update with verified bugs and there fixes (if there is one) as they are reported. This way damaged' thread will be less cluttered and people won't have to wade through hundreds of pages of posts to find something.
good idea but don't forget... SEARCH = WADE RELIEF
Mine works just fine. I dont get a ringtone when I plug my phone in and the volume is off...
Im sorry, but my trackball is still intermitent. I thought it was supposed to be fixed?
And my broswer hangs on the last leg, even though the page is fully loaded, I have to press stop.

Its light sensitive? Hm...didnt know that. Could very well be my issue, is there a way to turn it off? I liked in 1.5 how it came on by just moving it. Let me know my phone was responding and just....brought a sense of comfort I can never explain. I guess maybe being jealous over it whilst having the g1.
Another issue I am having is at the lock screen. Before this update if my phone was locked, you press the power key and then either swipe your screen down, or press menu to unlock. Now whenever I press menu, it unlocks but automatically pulls up the menu on the home screen. Not a huge issue and definitely not complaining, just wanted to let you know.
has anyone else had the issue where you answer an incoming call and there is no sound on your end or their end. and the only fix is to restart your phone?. it is very annoying. i found this in testing but it stopped. now its starting up again today
Bump
I know i annoy you all with my trackball b!tching, cause its no big deal to anyone else, but to me, I could live with all the original bugs if the trackball was constant.
Also, friendstream? I didnt see it in the rom, and cant find it, and idek if it works in damages latest release.
Total noob question, but the only reason im interested in friendstream is because, to be honest, idek what it IS. Link fb, ms, and twitter tkgether right?
I'm having trouble with VVM, when you call and vm answers it asks for the number your calling and the # and then says it doesn't recognize try again.......I tried google voice but it won't even go to VM at all......

Weird Google Now logo (bug)

I get this weird checkered logo at the top. I initially thought Google was celebrating something but when you click the logo, it seems to initiate a search for the keyword "test".
Haven't manage to reproduce it. I wonder what triggered it.
I guess it might be some remnant from a test built they forgot to remove before last OTA.
I'm still running KitKat on XT1068.
Anybody else come across this? Ideas?
I've tought the same thing. Lets wait and see if it gets back to normal.

1/2 Screen Freezes in Landscape Video Playback

Is anyone else having issues with video playback in landscape mode? 1/2 the screen freezes and the other half continues to play the video. It is the weirdest thing. Taking a screenshot shows the normal output. Trying to find out if this is common or if there's something up with my phone
I've had half screen turning black. Seems to happen after daydreaming for me, and coming out of landscape orientation even though the daydream never actually went landscape. Seems like a couple weird problems at the same time. Had to reboot to get out of the freeze. I've turned off daydream for now...will see if the freeze happens elsewhere.

I've experienced the same problem, the first half freezes while the second half continues with the video. I've had this phone for a week, and has happened about 5 times now. Have you gotten any more information as to why this is happening?
Have you guys changed your DPI? This issue seems to happen at certain DPI intervals.
I just posted a thread about this issue. I didn't notice your thread This issue is making me crazy I am wondering if this is a kernel related issue. I am on lean.

I have not changed anything regarding dpi settings. In fact, ive kept this stock....for now. I was worried it was just me but it seems to be affecting other people. 64gb Blue if there is any correlation between model number.
My DPI is stock. 64gb white. Rooted, unlocked stock bootloader, stock kernal/rom. I did figure out that a simple screen off then back on corrected the issue.
Still weird...

Yup that seems to clear it, however when you are showing off this massive behemoth to all your friends playing a video , it just gets a little annoying having to power off unlock and reload. I'm wondering if its been submitted to google as a bug.
I think it's lollipop issue

For me it happens with apps that have lots of motion on the screen. Waze navigation is where I notice it most. Two three times during 40 minute commute. Never happened using Google navigation.

Suddenly Can't answer calls on the Nexus 6

About 2 days ago I noticed when i receive a call, it rings but the screen is black. If i hit the power button it will wake the screen but it doesn't show I'm receiving a call except for the fact I lose LTE ( I'm on Verizon). I can also double tap the screen ( have the mod) and it will wake but still nothing. Once the call is over it will show a missed call in the status bar. I'm rooted but on 5.0.1 stock. Was working fine until a few days ago. Anyone else?
Are you using Lux? If so, uninstall it. Problem solved. If not, then I'm not sure what to tell you.

No, not using Lux. Starting to piss me off. Just shows up out of the blue and haven't really installed any new programs in a while.
Well I'm still having the problem but i have found if I can wake the screen and then hit the phone icon, one of the options it gives me is to "return to call in progress" and if I hit that it gives me the option to answer the call. This sucks.
Any chance you've got something covering or blocking the ambient light sensor? When my screen got cracked, there was a fissure that went directly over the sensor, and I had the same problem you're having. Maybe some dust under a screen protector?

That was a great idea but still didn't work. I took the screen protector off and still the same thing. I might try a custom rom but I think it's time to sell. I love big phones and I do like this phone but it may be a tad too big for me. Might put it on Craigslist but the hicks in my area don't understand what "Nexus" is or "price is firm"...."will you take $150 for that there phone?"

Do you have your phone number integrated with Google Voice? If so you might want to double check your Google Voice integration settings as I know they have that caller ID that lets it ring to voice mail and you can decide if you want to take the call after they start to leave a message
Google just did some changes with Hangouts this week that nerfd Messenger and Google Voice for me
Post here in the Q&A section is forthcoming but in the mean time you can check out my post on the Google forums about what their changes broke HERE
If you are looking to try a ROM check out Clean ROM - link is in my signature below

I do use my google voice number but I don't have it setup like you were talking about. It rings directly to my phone. I checked my setting and they are the same. I tired using hangouts for my voice text messages but found that a lot of the time it wouldn't notify me that I had received a message so I went back to the Voice app. I'm just stumped. I my give the Clean Rom a shot. Do you know if it works well with Verizon? Seen some people saying they were having a few problems with some of the roms on Verizon. Thanks for the input.

Clean ROM is a striped down and tweaked stock rom so it doesn't have some of the issues the ASOP roms do. I had to look through a few pages from about page 18 on, as that is when he announced CR was no longer in beta and released the 1.1 rom. Saw more t-mob, at&t and sprint peeps in there but at least 1 person on verizon reported in all was good and tether is supposed to be working

I just installed it and it seems to have fixed my problem for answering calls. Have no idea what was wrong before on the original rom. Seems to be running nicely and Verizon is working fine it seems like. Thanks for the recommendation.
Nice!! :highfive:
If you could please chime in on the clean rom thread so others see that a verizon user is up and running on it as I had seen way more peeps on the other 3 carriers there

I definitely will as soon as I head out and do a little testing on it.
I had this exact problem with my wife's Nexus 6 but mine was functioning fine. Turns out that under SETTINGS - SOUND & NOTIFICATION - APP NOTIFICATION she had the Goggle Dialer blocked.
Have the exact problem outlined by the original thread starter, scour a few webpages with different sort of solution.... nothing works!
My solution: Simple, just uninstall the Phone app updates, voila, all back to normal.
Hope it'll help someone.

[BUG] Built In Screen Recorder "Stuck"

So the other morning I was doing some screen recording for one of my games and I noticed when I finished that I could not get the screen recorder to turn off. so it was at this point that I restarted the phone and when I turned it back on it was stuck on. It wasn't actually recording anything per say however the little white dot that you get for inputs was all over the screen you couldn't get rid of it and you were unable to turn the recorder on or off though red magic time. Now I've only seen one other person have this bug and if you tried to go through red magic for any kind of support to this point than you know why I'm posting here instead of messaging them.
due to issues with the XDA app I was unable to directly upload video of the air so I uploaded it to my YouTube channel so that you guys can be the exact problem I'm having if you haven't experienced it yourself. I've also uploaded a screenshot of the only other person I've seen having this problem statement about it.
Error video:
as someone who uses the built-in screen recorder for most of my YouTube video gameplay I'd really appreciate some help in getting this back up and working I've tried clearing the cache I've tried clearing the memory and have had no luck so far.
In case anybody is wondering I have the red magic 3 global version 12 GB 256 GB storage model.

So I went ahead just did the reset today guys, fixed the issue for now, and got me a lot more storage space hahaha. So back your photos videos and recordings up to Google drive or the photos app back up your contacts and messages and app data through the backup option in settings and you should be good to go in terms of saving data.
