Hi all,
After spending 3 years on the iOS side after departing from my S2 and Sensation XE, I've finally decided to come back to the Green side and see how this works out for me. Naturally, I still have a bad aftertaste of the Samsung phones, and seeing as the Nexus phones now have flagship specs, I might as well go for the Nexus. So I did, and I'm the proud owner of a 64 GB Midnight Blue Nexus 6. However, I've grown quite accustomed to some things on iOS for which I still need help after swapping over to Android, and I hope I won't get shot down immediately for this. Very well then, off to my shot in the dark and list my questions:
1. Battery percentage. I cannot seem to find an option to enable this anywhere in the system. Is this a feature missing from stock Android?
2. Swiping to navigate back and forward doesn't seem to be in the browser. Any way to enable this?
3. Is there a function to avoid popups from showing on top of my screen while playing games? I play a lot of rhythm games and the pop ups mess my rhythm up. I tried the None option, but it still allowed notifications to get through.
4. Is there a way to allow YouTube videos to play in the background? Or even with the screen locked?
5. There seems to be some considerable lag while moving through the UI as well as in games and such. Is this due to the encryption?
Now onto some other kind of questions which most likely will be answered by doing my own research (which I will be doing, but might as well ask them here while I investigate in hopes of finding even quicker answers. As I find out about them, I'll either add in the answers to the questions or remove the questions entirely to avoid people getting annoyed at me.)
6. If encryption is causing the lag in my games as well as UI (Compared to my old i6+), will decrypting the device improve much? If yes, is there a quick and easy way to do so?
7. Has rooting become easier and with less risks of the user F-ing it up?
8. I vaguely remember custom ROMs as well as Kernels, and I've been reading up a bit. Are there any bug free 5.0.2 Roms/Kernels out yet? Specifically looking for performance increases with less battery drain.
9. CMRecovery it was called back in the day I believe. Is this still around to save me from massive F-ups?
10. Is the utility ODIN still required to flash Roms? I remember it as being a terribly counter-intuitive application to use.
11. Is CyanogenMod supporting the Nexus 6 officially? If not, any plans for it?
Well, those are it for now. Don't hate me, please! I will start my research after posting this. Just thought I'd try and hit 2 birds with one rock, cutting down the overall time.
