And that is why you go with nexus devices if you care for updates

Yes, actually, I have been for quite some time a Nexus fan and have had a few of them. I even like the look of the 6P. However, they are usually compromised, for example, I've heard the 6P headphone jack is pretty poor. That is a deal breaker for me. I so wish it wasn't the case though.

Unfortunately all phones have a compromise in one way or another

Can't say I noticed any issues with the headphone jack when I had the 6P though.

Anyone had the marshmallow update come through yet? A few sites have said it's being released?

Do I need to have an active Google account or Sony account on my Z3 to get the UK marshmallow update when it becomes avaialable? Or, will active WiFi be enough to get the download message?

Thx

This maybe a really noobish question. However, I have an SD card in the phone, but every time I take photos it saves it to the phone, and every so often I have to keep manually transfer everything to the SD card. How do I make it so everything saves to the card automatically, without me having to do anything?

If you are on Concept do the following, its similar on stock rom but cannot remember how.

open camera app, tap the Cog icon>more> scroll down> Data storage change to SD card.

Ah ha... I never thought to do it in the camera settings. Thank you.

I knew there was a reason that I kept this phone!

 

[Frozennova]

Think I'll bang the N preview on tonight

Marshmallow concept was really stable even early on for me

Will this wipe user data? I'm bored of waiting for M to be released?

I'm due an upgrade in October and will probably be getting a 6P. Those with a Z3 then will probably still be waiting for it

My Z3's battery has gone totally dire. After plenty of fresh install's / data wipes etc, I'm over it. Before I ditch the phone, can anyone tell me whether any new ROMs might be available for me to try (don;t feel like going down the XDA forum rabbit hole right now )

I've made a huge mistake

Flashed the N developer preview last night, so far do good (Apart from one app incompatibility)

 

[Silly Goose On The Loose]

Installed the N Preview and WhatsApp keeps crashing every time it is opened?

 

[zoomee]

Any sign of the official 6.0 update yet?

I spoke too soon

WhatsApp was fine but Facebook was just giving me a white screen when launched and Opera would stop rendering pages after a while.

Flashed back to the Norwegian M build

 

[BigBoy]

What did you expect? It's a preview after all

2017 I heard! Other regions have it looking at google but no idea when / if we'll ever see it.
