I had the same thing happened to me I have a nexus 7 about a couple weeks ago my nexus would randomly start shouting off on my tablet. when I would plug it in at night and unplug it in the moring it would shout down and some times when I would plug it in at night it would shout off. also at random times it would shout off even if I wasent touching it. so I don't think you should keep your nexus because that mite happen to you
N6 is good but i hate that i had to use it in China, where most google services are blocked rudely. I had to pick up my Nexus 5 to use gmail or google play. Now the biggest advantage of N6 for me is big screen and the dual speaker.
I had the same problem with my Nexus 7 2013, i thought that was the problem with wireless charging. I put the tablet on the wireless charging pad, and when i get up in the morning, it is fully charged but shuted down automatically.
I am seeing the random shutdowns as well (and searched to find this thread)... I have the AT&T model that is SIM-locked.
My specs are as follows (same as a previous poster with NO issues):
CPU: APQ8084 ES1.1
eMMC: 32GB Sandisk RV=07 PV=01 TY=57
DRAM: 3072MB Samsung S8 SDRAM DIE=6Gb
I am going to Factory Reset and see if that resolves the issue, but the previous post suggesting that the phone (ie modem) software/hardware causing issues may be on the right track. I've had custom ROMs on other phones in the past and had similar random reboots/shutdowns if I flashed sketchy modem software (or, hell, even AT&T-approved modems) and a call came in.
I'll update this thread if I have any success...
UPDATE:
Gave up and returned the phone... Same issues persisted after the factory reset and the 5.0.1 OTA.
Hi All. Thought it was me accidentally pressing/holding the power button. But a long/extended press does not shut the phone down.
Good golly! Why didn't I know that? What is everyone griping about then? I've read that gripe MANY MANY times. The N6 doesn't have a reboot option in the power menu. Um . . . Yes it does. Thanks for sharing.Just the power button ... I just did it again to make sure. Both from a lock screen and unlocked. Press and hold ONLY the power button for 5 or so seconds and it reboots. Are you sure you have a Nexus 6?
The LED is a charging indicator when the phone doesn't have enough juice to turn on the screen to show it's charging.I wonder if Motorola is using the LED for some sore of error code? I'd give them a call about it at least.
I can't deny nexus 6 not as expected!
My phone turns off from day one, lag everyday and omg the battery is kidding me just 5 or 6 hours max!! The phone back is always hot like hell plus the cast screen not available i can't connect it to my smart tv
I'm not a satesfied customer i have nexus since htc nexus 1 but this phone is impossible
If I switch location services to device only my phone runs ok. In high accuracy mode it crashes several times a day. Running 5.1.1Update: Factory reset without restoring from phone backup seemed to make a difference.. I think.. Also, keeping the battery at a high charge level seems to help with the frequency of the shutdowns. After the Lollipop 5.1 update I have not had a random shutdown.
