Back on January my Nexus 6 crashed and died. It got stuck in strange factory reset mode before finally just dying. I had no intention of replacing my Nexus 6. To me it was the perfect phone. I was going to keep that phone until it fell apart and then I was going to purchase a new frame, no matter the cost my Nexus 6 would survive. Unfortunately my wife thought and said otherwise especially after spending $75 on a new battery only to have the phone go through two days of melt downs before dying. I was convinced a new motherboard would have made everything better.
What's a motherboard repair for your phone going to cost?
I don't know I responded, maybe $60-$80
What happens when the screen gets cracked or needs to be replaced she asked?
Maybe $25-$30
How much to replace the speakers when they go?
Probably$20-$30
She was quite and said so basically we are looking at spending anywhere from $200 and upwards to keep your phone running with repairs cost?
We were on the same page I thought she understands
You're getting a new phone.
I tried to argue a motherboard would be cheaper and the phone was still in pretty good shape.
We went back and fourth before she said no and that was it. When it comes to financial matters the wife has final say.
So I got the LG G6 and let me say out of five not so wonderful choices the G6 barely stood among the options. Mostly I got this phone for the price $500 out the door.
It wasn't my Nexus 6 but I was going to give it a try maybe it would grow on me
Within a few days of getting apps started to crash
Then came the random restarts, the phone freezing up, the touchscreen and the finger print scanner both not working and now my phone is suddenly reducing brightness to zero.
There are also some issues with phone calls.
I got this phone brand new. I should not be having these problems. I am tempted to do a factory reset but I got to the point with the nexus 6 where I was doing them daily. I hate having to go in and reinstall everything all over. I am ready to ditch the G6 and move on. My only problem is there isn't really anything else I wasn't on the market. I think my only real requirements would a screen size 5.7 or larger and a headphone jack. I am .Thinking of maybe ordering something off Amazon that will work with T-Mobile. The headphone jack is a must.
