We are not going to get all the features in Pixel in 7.1. Im hoping after someone does get an unlocked version we can get the features. But it looks like it will only be exclusive to Pixel phones including the launcher
May I ask will Nexus 6 get any more security updates as they come down or no?
Or after Nougat thats it plain and simple?
Thanks In advance
The Launcher is an app. I'm already using an older version of it.

No more major Android upgrades, but security updates for at least another year.

After 7.1 that will be it for the 6 i believe. They say the 6 is iffy on getting the 7.1 and it will be a dev preview if we get it and it will be before end of year.

The new launcher will be hard to get until someone gets the phone then im sure we will have it
who cares about updates?
If the phone runs fine, has great specs, and dev support, no one cares about any of this update non sense..
Do you REALLY care if you get the Pixel launcher on this phone, when Nova already blows it away??
Security updates???? You root your phone, don't you, so you obviously dont care that much about "Security"
This obsession with "updates" is really nothing more than a learned dysfunction...

So, I get it, the Pixel is too expensive for me too. But so was the 6 and the 6P. I bought the 6 after it's been out a year. And the Pixel XL is obviously a good phone, even if we disregard all the PR rubbish they said. Well I couldn't give a critter's backside for the Google Assist, but if it sells more phones, good for them. But the camera is superb for the first time, and the screen looks great, and it's optimized for that hardware. That means a no lag Android phone.
If all the above is true, then it should compete with the Galaxy S, and the iPhone line.

It was already mentioned yesterday from the SVP of Google that we will not see all the Pixel exclusive features in 7.1 unless you buy that said phone. They may agree later to expand to other phones just not sure
aside from the better camera, I am not sure many real Nexus "fans" care about any of the so called "features" of 7.1 or the Pixel line itself..

I hear you im happy with my N5 and 6. I dont even use Allo or Duo. Action Launcher and others is just fine with me.
agreed; I tried Allo and duo, but after reading how intrusive and spy ware based they are, I got rid of them..plenty of other choices out there that do the same thing..

Hey, everyone,
This is my first device in a while that isn't a Nexus (the rumors point to the next Nexus being 5.9" - Nope. Nope, so hard).
Well, anyway, I love this device, but I'm worried about development. Granted, I'm used to seeing development efforts pop-up for the device on the day of launch (yay, Nexus)... But it has been a little bit.
What say, you? Do you all think we'll have a good development community? Still within that return period... Talk me off the ledge, guys.

I'm waiting for the new Moto X to come to my door step. I have the first edition Moto X what's an unlocked bootloader. At first I was all kinds of excited to flash different roms. Time after time I continue to go back to stock running xposed modules. Stock-based features of the Moto X are just too darn useful. I plan on only running a few exposed modules on my pure edition
No, because I'm not rooting the phone. I bought this phone primarily because it offer almost all I need without rooting.
Just like most people that used the moto x, I mostly relied on xposed settings just to tweak around a few settings. Motorola's software is basically stock android with a few very useful features added. I used to flash roms ALL the time when I had my GS4, but I no longer have to do that with the moto x.

Interesting. Yeah, I think its features are really useful, as well. I just figured that since almost all of the features have been moved to an app, it wouldn't be too difficult to actually get them on a custom rom. But, yeah, all the features I want are really minor and probably could be added using xposed. Good point, I'll look into some of them.

The Nexus was almost perfect for me. I just found a ROM that was a little more suitable, set it up, and was able to stick to it for my duration with the phone. I would occasionally update to a later version... but I never really needed to. I just picked a good ROM, and stuck with it. I was hoping to do the same here.

Like I mentioned earlier - excellent point. On my GS3 and M7, I always flashed ROMs. I calmed down a bit with the Nexus, though. Hahaha
Looks like I'll be looking into Xposed. That doesn't mean I won't make some of my own modifications, though....

The only thing I miss, is custom toggles. I didn't know stock android don't actually have toggles at all, they are more like shortcuts to the settings menu. It's more than annoying. And needing an app for flashlight sucks. If I could get that, would be all the mods I need.

Xposed settings allow for this. Download the GravityBox module within the settings. This allows you to customize almost every aspect of the phone, including all toggles. I set up my phone to have the torch flashlight as a toggle, EXTREMELY handy when you need it really quick.
Don't need development.
For those unrooted, see my no root survival page.
Notification Toggles is very good.
This is the first phone I've owned that I don't miss root at all. It has everything I need stock. Of course I would love to have root for gravity box alone but I don't miss it as much as I thought I would.

After an extended testing and preview period, Google has announced the final release of Android L, it's latest version of the world's most popular mobile platform. Android 5.0 Lollipop is debuting on three new Nexus devices — the Nexus 6 smartphone, Nexus 9 tablet, and Nexus Player streaming media device — and will be available on the Nexus 5, Nexus 7, Nexus 10, and Google Play Edition devices in the coming weeks.

Will also stay with my N5 - 6" is just too big and well the design is not my cup of tea. Im just curious about Android Lollipop! Yummy
that'd be motorola looking to make money from the nexus brand, not the way the nexus has been ran before for being for devs. Instead they use the name and market it for all the other companies as well. they are out to make money not make a device that we really can afford. not paying the 650 for something that's that ugly. forget it. N5 all the way.
got some motorola android 2.x phone in the pass with really bad experience, I need to wait and see if I can trust moto again.
too expensive, too big! not for me. I'm in love with my N5 now even more haha

Only Chuck Norris can judge me.
I just bought iPhone 5s and sell my nexus 5 because of google, new lollipop is one big crap, nothing works like should, we got new camera apis but its 2 months after lollipop release and we still dont have new camera. This is a joke !! LTE nexus 7 even doesn't get lollipop ! Shame on you crappy google. Of course I hate ios design but there everything works like should work, no memory problems no battery drains I don't have to reboot my phone every day to work with my phone.
Okay?

I partly agree with the op google really needs to get its act together on lollipop after promising us the world I don't think it has delivered. That isn't even the biggest issue because a big update like lollipop was bound to have some troubles. But it has been now two months and we haven't got any fixes for the major problems reported and some of them were in the developer preview. Google needs to get the lollipop updates out asap. However I am not willing to dump android over this. I bought a nexus device and expected this.

he didnt tell me the bold red part but the rest and thats because AT&T and SAMSUNG are crazy locking bootloaders. AT&Ts bad in general but stuck on business plan so just switching away from samsung and only buying unlocked phones direct from carrier is best bet if you want root perm and recovery. thats what im doing done personally giving my money to AT&T.

I caved, and was sick and tired of problems. I had 4 S7Es, 2 Nexus, and 2 S5s, my boyfriend's on his 2nd LG, my friend's S7E has extremely bad screen burn. My daughter has never had an issue with her iPhone. I went out and bought one. If I can't have root, I might as well have an Apple. At least the battery isn't dead by lunch.

Does your AT&T plan include tethering? Because I'm pretty sure the iPhone checks to make sure you are allowed before turning it on as well.
That said, I'm also bummed about the root situation, but for other reasons. I did find a pretty good firewall in NetGuard, and (ironically) the Package Disabler app that only works on Samsung devices was able to disable most of the bloat. Only the ability to backup and restore individual apps (or even just their data) is missing, and why I still wish I had root.
(yes, I know I can use ADB for some backups, but I'm not sure downgrades are possible that way)

Man, I have non of these issues you've mentioned. Mine has been flawless. The only weird thing that happens sometimes is somethings reset on their own. Like some apps just disapeare from my home screen/folders for no reason. Some settings clear themselves out without me doing anything. Sometimes, I think Samsung is remotely is messing with my phone.

That's a chipset power management issue. The only fix I've found us turning off wifi or bluetooth for a second and then turn it back on.
The reason its happening is because of the wifi, data, and bluetooth chips being all in one when it comes to power management. Great for form factor, dumb for data/power handling.??
It happens on Oreo as well but pie handles it WAY WAY WORSE.
But seriously K-alz kinda good to have this, I get tired of the high and mighty peeps on XDA jumping on others for crap. We were all new to this once. At&t ota is out, I'm wondering if it will fix the bluetooth issue. Having a hard time pulling away from Oreo. Plus ota just hit for my Note FE, I think S8 ota is coming too plus Javix working on new rom for Note 8 im just trying to keep track of what im flashing where[emoji12]

Yes indeed sir thank you!!! I just got in there and saw your messages!?? I appreciate you sir.?
I'll be going back to Oreo for a bit until another Pie update is released cause this version doesn't take the cake.
Did you try the new CSC1?

Yup. That's another thing that is getting old. Giving others crap for asking a simple question. Arguing over dumb stuff. Getting off topic on a thread with something very important, root. All of that has brought the idea of having a thread like this. I want everyone to participate and talk about whatever the hell they want. Just make it a chat room.
And man, I'm so jealous of you. You sound so rich having all of these amazing phones...... And freaking rooted. Lol
K-alz...this is my secret...Each pay if I can afford it....I put $20 aside for anything phone related. That way I dont touch my savings thats for the family. Lol not rich at all...you know what I do for a living..not gonna get rich ...lol

Sounds like a good idea, but I stupidly vape, so that $20 goes to juice and coils. And dang, those are some nice bikes you got there, bro.
So after taking the OTA on my Note FE to Pie CSC4 I have found that if I use Package disabler you cannot update apps in playstore. So my At&t Note 9 is going through the OTA to CSC1 now. If I am unable to use package disabler on the new Pie this is a deal breaker for me. I was able to use it on CSB3. I will let you guys know how it goes

Man, screw this. I'll be searching for cheaper unlockable phones from now on. I'm so tired of being locked down on my own device. Xiaomi sounds like a good phone to me. Lol
A buddy of mine has one and loves it
