Look first at the price of a new N6.
You need to check if the user account is properly removed. If not you can not use the phone.

How would I know it's properly removed?

Get the seller to produce a time and dated photo of the phone at the second or third screen of setup.

Would a factory data reset suffice?

NBC Live Extra app, was just updated today and works perfectly on Nexus 7 now.

Nice, I missed the update!
I have the Official London 2012 Results App... but it crashes every time it opens.
Yahoo! Sportacualr has a new update out with Olympic coverage too.
Good call, haha
What stand?

Also wondering, looks clean.
It's a smart phone stand I picked up a while ago that works great with the Nexus 7 in landscape, it can't support it in portrait. Simple and effective.

Weird, it looks fine on phone and when I upload to Tapatalk it rotates it. Bizarre

I'm not 100% sure, but it looks like this stand:

Which is not bad for $8.
Here's the one I got, they have other stuff too.

Do you need to download both the NBC olympics app and the live app or just the live app?

Moto Care Replacement

Has anyone received a moto care replacement phone recently? Curious if it came with 4.4 (unlikely), 5.0, or 5.1. Asking because I'd like to continue to use MOFO.

I just got a warranty replacement last week. It was on 5.1.

Yeah. I know it's not good for you guys that have to use mofo. I have a Pure Edition and I wanted 5.1 anyway so no big deal to me. Maybe you will get lucky and it won't be.
Sent from my XT1095 using Tapatalk
I've gotten 2 of them and they have both been on 4.4 and immediately ask you to update on first boot.

I received my replacement few days ago and it was on 5.0 then updated to 5.1 upon first run.

Well, that's good to hear. I might be able to prevent the update. Anyone know the best way to prevent the upgrade?

The update is not automatic. You have 2 choices, ignore the update message or disable MotorolaOTA if you have root.

What to use to clean speaker/ear piece?

I have lint and crap that won't come out, I've tried point stuff to get in there but doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions?

It's been discussed before. The general consensus is an old toothbrush works best.
Oooh great idea I didn't even think of that.

I'll have to check my second wall charger (Got one with my replacement) and see if there's a difference in the made by. Maybe that's a person's name? LOL. Just kidding.
