    Security Patches Included In New Nexus Factory Images

    Google recently made a promise to release monthly security updates which are meant to simply patch up security holes.

    Encryption Now Supported On TWRP On Nexus 6P

    Earlier in the week Team Win Recovery Project released their custom recovery to the Nexus 6p with the caveat that it would not support encryption. This meant doing anything with the stock rom was pretty much out of the question. Today they announced that TWRP does now support Encryption on the...

    Nexus 6P Battery Life Impressions

    I have had the Nexus 6P now for a few days and so far I am loving it. The aluminum back coupled with the Gorilla Glass 4 really give this device a premium feel. The fingerprint scanner on the back is second to none. You can't get any better software for a device than the latest version of Stock...

    Another Nexus 6P Bent In Half!

    Zack Nelson posted a video where he puts a Nexus 6P through a thorough torture test. He eventually bends the phone in half. The video draws lots of criticism because during the scratch test he actually cracks the glass on the front damaging the structural integrity of the device. Shortly after...

    Is The Nexus 6P The Most Fragile Device Ever?

    Nexus devices have never really claimed to be the most robust phones and tablets in the market place. There are plenty of drop videos of devices like the Nexus 7 that show just how fragile Nexus devices can be. I feel like my Nexus 6 by Motorola is pretty tough. I have dropped it more than once...

    Crisis Averted! Nexus 6P Does Not Have Blowable QFuse

    When I read the headline "Nexus 6P has hardware fuse which blows when bootloader is unlocked", I asked myself if it was April Fools day already. If you have been around long enough then you know that some devices actually did have a fuse back in the day. The Motorola Droid X was the first...

    Your Fast Chargers Are Useless With The Nexus 5X and 6P

    When Qualcomm announced Quick Charge 2.0 I like many of you went out and grabbed up lots of chargers. I have atleast 10 of these. Some of these are wall chargers, and I have a handful of car chargers. It has been confirmed that the Nexus 5X does not include Qualcomm's Quick Charge 2.0. This was...

    Endure A 10 Second Verified Boot Screen On The Nexus 5X or 6P If You Root Your Device!

    Verified boot was introduced to Android way back in 4.4 KitKat. It was a concern to the Android modding community back then, but we haven't really seen this surface. Google is taking this feature a bit more seriously in Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Verified boot exists to detect persistent rootkits...

    Nexus 6P Could Ship As Early As 10/14

    A leaked Sprint document shows the release date of the Nexus 6P as 10/26/15. This is no surprise as the earliest ship date for the device on pre-orders is right in line with this date. What is surprising though is the note "Customers may get devices earlier than this and Sprint can expect...

    The new Nexus devices were released just a few days ago, however case manufacturers have been preparing their cases for months now. Some of these guys must have jumped the gun on their designs.

    Nexus 6P Camera Samples From Google's Romain Guy

    The Nexus 6P and Nexus 5X each have a pretty awesome camera. The specs of the Nexus 6P more than likely mean slightly better camera performance on the 6P, but still this camera is a game changer at this price point. The show stopper of this camera is the Sony built 1.55 micron sensor which...

    Here Is What The "X" and "P" In Nexus 5X and 6P Stand For!

    Today the Nexus team did an AMA on reddit. They tackled some difficult questions like "Why not include OIS?", and "Why No Qi Charging", but one of the most interesting answers was to the question "what does the X and P stand for?". As it turns out Hiroshi Lockheimer gives a pretty reasonable...

    Nexus Buying Experience Rant!

    As a disclaimer all my agony in the Nexus buying experience yesterday is mostly self inflicted, but still Google could do a few things differently to prevent a situation like mine from turning into a nightmare. We will start off with a bit of history. I have been purchasing Nexus devices since...
