IT'S HAPPENING

Meanwhile the vast majority of phones are still on kitkat and older.
>>
>>53396767
Nexus 5 support?
>>
>>53396767
Literally who cares. My phone only runs smoothly with kitkat anyway, and every single application works like it should
>>
>>53396801
Fucking this. They don't need to keep pushing for new versions just for the sake of it being new.

This is why I'm a Nexus whore

>Night mode
>F.lux like live display
>multi window
>Native DPI adjustments
>Doze works with moving phones
>Fully customizable and paginated Quick Settings
>Quick Settings api for third party toggles

Where were you when Google won?
>>
>>53397520
I wish Nexus phones are available where I live, but sadly they aren't. Therefore, I'm a CM whore.
>>
>>53397530
on my samsung galaxy s2
>>
>>53397530
All of these are already available on CM based ROMs.
>>
>>53397530
Every single of these things are in CM already.
>>
>>53397530
What exactly does night mode mean?
Is it like flux? Because I really like Cyanogenmod's color adjusting
>>
>>53397530
several years in the past enjoying the same stuff?..
>>
>>53397561
>What is importing
>>
>>53397530
literally all these features are already in iOS 8/9
with the exception of "paginated quick settings"
we have cc, that + any good tweak (like polus) and you have a better experience than android's retarded "let's pull down from the top of your screen 10 times" mentality.
I can get to my settings in one swipe on my screen, you fags need like 3.

I didn't even realize Marshmallow had come out

What does it even add over Lolipop?
>>
>>53397717
Bug fixes, Doze, new app drawer, under the hood fine tuning
>>
Just finished flashing this.

When iOS has a new release out, /g/ pretty much gets 300 replies.

>comparing an ios release to an android preview build

Idiot
>>
>>53397671
It only took apple 5 years to come up with a copy of the notification bar android had since day one, before that it was just fucking pop ups
>>
>>53397314
Nexus 5 is up to its life span. Google only support phones for what I believe is two major updates. Nexus 4 lost future updates at Lolipop and Nexus 5 at Marshmellow.
>>
Holy fuck it looks nice

Too bad my phone and future android phone released this year will probably never get it.

Major carriers don't have many Nexus phones available and therefore the support in terms of repair is not great. You can still get Nexus phones on European alternatives to Ebay, Swappa, etc. If only Nexus 6P had an SD card slot, I would've bought it a long time ago.

>Still haven't fixed software keys
What's the fucking point
I don't want the goddamn home button taking up a third of my screen when I'm trying to browse the fucking internet
Windows Mobile solved this ages ago but of course google hasn't got a clue
>>
>>53398169
I already paid 4 bucks faggot and I'm mad about other people getting this for free

AHHHHHH I DONT LIKE IT

>>53398169

Yes
YES
Give me battery percentage in the icon and I can finally stop fucking around with Cyanogen

Lollipop and older, actually

They have that if you use the system ui tuner.

>own an S5
>reminded daily that in exchange for water resistance I got cucked into not being able to root and always being months behind on updates
>want to swap out phones but the expense the S5 cost me is making me want to milk this phone until it's dead

Why was I so retarded /g/
How can I become on the cutting edge of Android updates again
>>
>>53398343
Woah, I had no idea
Why the fuck does google have to hide everything
>>
>>53398402

It's still "experimental"

Just hold down the gear icon in your notification shade till it spins and you feel a vibration.
>>
>>53398365

How can you not root your phone?
>>
>>53397530
Welcome to 2012.
>>
>>53398365
>Samsung phone
>No root
Nigga slap Cyanogenmod on that
>>
>>53396767
The best thing about this multiwindow mode is that there is no meta-data entry you have to add to enable it.

In fact, if you want your app to be fullscreen only you have to explicitly specify that it cannot be used in multiwindow.

This means that unlike Samsung's and Apple's and other current multiwindow implementations, all apps should, by default, be supported unless they specify fixed-orientation.
>>
>tfw my moto /g/ will never get this
all I wanted from lollipop was proper app permission settings
instead they took away the dark theme
>>
>>53398469
>implying any other mobile OS has all of those features stock
>>
>>53398477
noiceee
>>
>>53398479
Just install cm on it

Apparently peregrine is getting MM.
>>
>>53397582
>>53397608
Cyanogenmod doesn't have default dark themes, only CM themes. It also only has the multi window included in marshmallow, which was trash.
CM does not have native DPI adjustments, but it is currently possible with xposed modules.
CM cannot modify doze in any way other than activation time.
CM does not have pages in quick settings or support for third party toggles.

>>53397623
Yeah, there's a night mode which includes a dark theme and color tinting like f.lux.

Bezels are completely normal, kill yourself.

Verizon S5s are locked down as fuck. There's a very small number of firmware/hardware combinations that can be rooted, and mine isn't one of them.
>>
>>53398432
On cm it spins and then opens quicktiles menu?
>>
>>53398318
those stats are only for devices that used the play store in the last 30-days.
one of the biggest android markets, China, doesn't use the play store.
>>
>>53396767
I installed it on my Nexus 6 about an hour ago and I'm already regretting it. Performance is garbage compared to before the update and multi window is so unstable it's barely usable. At least they made it easy to revert back, so that's probably what I'll end up doing in the mean time.
>>

Meanwhile, chinks are a disgusting degenerate breed that bathe in their own piss water. Who cares what they have?

It's almost like it's a pre release!

The bezels on 6p and 5x are simply ginormous compared to the 6

Kill yourself

>>53399831
Apple doesn't win.

They do Planned Obsolescence.
>>
>>53399861
Bezel on tablet yes, since you actually need to hold the thing and don't need to worry about it being pocketable. Bezel on phone not really, since you're supposed to hold it by the back/sides. The new Nexus all lose a good deal of screen to area ratio compared to the previous gen.
>>
>>53399831
Not having official support is kind of lame, but the 5 will get unofficial updates for fucking forever.
>>
What's wrong with KitKat? From what I hear materia is pretty shitty.
