Ya....... I may just hit a rock bottom price Nexus 6... The original one
I had a similar problem that seemed to be happening randomly some nights. Finally determined it was correlated to my Titanium full system backup schedule. Turns out nights when the full backup ran copying of some wifi components disrupted the active wifi connection. I just had to modify the Titanium backup to exclude them and then it stayed connected all night.Update....problem is gone. After I tried everything I posted. 3 days later it was back to normal.
I did have some ####ty bloat ware cloud sync service running that I disabled. It be came active after my last update.
Will be all over the 6P. Hopefully it will work with Project FI. Really want to try that out as well.
You ask this same question every year. Your always a version or two behind, but got a great deal on the phone. Then come here asking what's so much better about all the new phones.
Last year, right before the Nexus 6 came out, I bought a Nexus 5.You ask this same question every year. Your always a version or two behind, but got a great deal on the phone. Then come here asking what's so much better about all the new phones.
Yup, we're pretty much at the point now with phone technology that everything is just going to be a minor upgrade from here on out. Every new version of a phone will have a better camera and slightly better battery life. A couple new features here and there, but nothing game changing. Outside of really just improving battery life, there isn't much a new phone could offer that I'd feel like I'd have to have it.

What are people getting? why are they spending all that money?
If you get a phablet because you play games and watch videos and don't have a tablet. maybe i could get that. But otherwise I don't understand the need for the latest tech just to send a text message, watch a video, or make a phone call.
the sales tax department must love you.I buy a new car every 18 months too.
I was being sarcastic. One of our cars has 190k miles on it.the sales tax department must love you.I buy a new car every 18 months too.
lotta dmv trips also.
Dang.
The car I bought new in 2004 still works and gets me to the same place I keep going to every day. I'm sure a newer car probably has more tech and stuff, but at the end of the day it's a device to travel from one place to another. I'm way to lazy and cheap to get another one until this one dies. I'm appalled by what cars are going for these days.
It sounds great from a price standpoint, but I've heard that the call quality can still be somewhat dodgy.

I also own a ####ty droid. Although I'd be willing to spring for a Nexus if this Fi thing turns out to be decent.
I don't get why people have to upgrade from a iPhone 6 to a 6S (or whatever). Had a Note 2 (bought used) for several years and the only negative was battery life. I switched to Google Fi and had to buy a $500 phone (Nexus 6, now $300, yay). I plan to keep this for for a least 3 years so that about $15 a month for the phone and about $30 for the service, total $45 a month. Not everybody would benefit like I did since I get bad service at home.
What device are you using...I guess it has to be the Nexus 6, right? Any problems with the device?Any problems with the service at all?
OK. First off note that Amazon is ####### with 3rd party sellers and no longer allowing the year of Prime to be registered. So if you're buying on that premise don't. At least right now.
These are pretty huge benefits. IMO battery life is extremely important. I have been using the Droid Maxx for almost three years now and the battery is finally starting to show its age. I use to be able to go a day, day and a half with out charging. That is a huge bonus. The 6Ps large battery is one of the reasons I am finally jumping to a new phone.
After getting all excited I don't think I'm going to do this.....I use about 10GB/month on my verizon unlimited plan. I could curb that a bit but even if I knock it down to 5GB I'm not saving anything moving to Fi. I didn't realize I was using that much data.
I'm at 10. My company won't let employees hop on the guest WiFi. I stream all day. I would be in the 20g plan if I could watch pr0n at work.
) and speedtests all over the place. Since I am on T-Mo though they have only charged me for about ~6gb right now thanks to music freedom.
I do
What do you do on periscope? I support internetting while poopingI am activity trying to abuse my data plan this month and am at ~7.2gb with ~7 days left. I mean it, I am pushing it (wifi off everywhere besides home) downloading ROMs, music, all software updates, way too much periscope (while pooping
At this point the only way I could see my self hitting 10gb would be to continue to push it as is, and to start streaming movies. Anyway, just thought I'd share, after this billing period I am going back to using wifi as per usual and expect to be back in the 3-4gb per month range.
