Have you done a hard reset? Hold power button down until device restarts

Just backup your phone and go get it, Verizon will take forever. That's the beauty of the Nexus

I always disable connections optimizer to eliminate bumps between wifi access points or moving between cell service and wifi. Have you noticed bad cell service?

not really, has been solid since I got the phone and started on sprint
 
I just went from an OG Moto X on Verizon to a Nexus 6 on Google Fi, I'm sooo much happier. Not only am I fully up-to-date, the phone is so much smoother and signal is significantly better. So far sound quality on local wifi is great and the transfer between wifi and cellular networks has been seamless. Color me impressed.
 
Just hit 11% on my battery from a full charge at 6:30 this morning, 14 hours of use and it's only down to 11% is pretty cool.

6p battery life is incredible. Unplugged at 950pm last night. So about 23 hours off charger. 1.5 hours screen time. Used gps navigation for 45 minutes

Can you buy this at a carriers store or is it just through the Google Store?

I ask cause I have T-Mobile "Jump" so would want to take advantage of that and not have to pay hundreds of dollars...

Nope - cannot buy through carriers.

It has been about 4 days with the phone now and it is hands down the best phone I've ever used. Fast, clean, and the battery life is incredible. I am getting slightly over 1.5 days of use with 4-6 hours of screen time on one charge. Amazing.

That is quite impressive! But unfortunately its a deal breaker if I can't use the T-Mobile jump program and only pay $100 for one...
 
Has anyone used an LG v10?? Thoughts?

I played with one the other night. It's a big phone. Kind of has everything I want in a phone. Replaceable Battery, Great Camera, SD Card, fingerprint scanner.

Nice - I want a bigger phone and am looking at the Note 5 but just saw that the V10 came out.....

I really like both. I am so tempted by the Note or Edge Plus. But I'm just ready for something outside of Samsung. Hell even the other night Nerfny and I were out looking at phones and I kept coming back to play with the note 5.

The note 5 is no doubt an excellent phone. One that was on my short list.

how are you liking the 5x so far? Do you know how much usable storage there was on it when you got it?

Yea - I have had a Samsung Galaxy since the "OG" "Galaxy 1" and skipped from the S4 to the S5.

After reading about the V10 the "Second screen" seems like a great feature...
