I'm using Nexus 6p with Android 7.0 here. Hoping they fix the BLE bugs, and the issue with Cisco Jabber.
-
I'm curious to see what the new Nexus is going to look like, and how expensive it's going to be. I really wish I was on Android for my main phone.

I couldn't be on an iphone for personal use. Too restrictive for me.

From a corporate perspective I definitely understand the iOS being preferred for mobile devices. More restrictvie by nature and not as easy to find backdoors, install malicious apps, etc.

When I had an Android, I loved modding and custom ROMs--this brought me back!

Yep that is me, too. Every month or two I wipe my phone and start over. It seems like every time I start from scratch I build something better for productivity. I really like this smart launcher. It has definitely increased productivity as I don't find myself searching for apps like before.

Oh yeah I love the sandboxed nature of it for that.. Hate it for connivance personally. I used it for years but got tired of it. I can just not install crazy apps using it myself.

I used to on low end phones but I don't see me doing that on Nexus devices cause it's vanilla android. the rom's I usually did to get rid of the sluggishness from the stock customized junk.

No worries we will try to find her something local. Tech is not one of her strengths. She has an old crappy tiny non-smart phone. She wants a smartphone now and I told her no way for android lol. She doesn't even know how to save contacts in her phone now. She remembers everyone numbers instead and looks in her history if she has too to call them and figure out who they are...

I don't use low end android devices. I think they are generally junk. I would rather have a Galaxy S5 which is generations old vs something newer where corners are cut.

Exactly. Apple thinks users are too dumb for this type of power and yes most are. As tech guys we want the freedom to do whatever we want with our device. We know the risks and accept them.

Try smart launcher. They have a free version. I bought the paid version after using the free one because I loved it so much.

This one does what I need so no biggie there. I've tried several. Over the last few months. I'd really like to try some of the fun ones that let you totally build your own shell, essentially, but I find them to be cumbersome and all that.
I'll give SmartLauncher another go and see how it does.

cool. It only takes about 5 mins to setup. Use the Ubuntu or Unity theme.
