    Thread Difference between HD 8 7th and 8th gen

    Is there a way to visually tell the difference between a 7th and 8th gen HD 8? I found this side by side comparison photo and the 8th gen has black buttons but I wasn't sure if that was the same of all 8th gen models.

    Thread Bluetooth turns off and wont re-enable

    I'm on a fresh install of the 8.0.1 OTA. My Bluetooth works fine and pairs with all my devices. However, after about 30 minutes it turns off. Then, if I try to re enable it, it will not come back on. A reboot fixes the issues but it shuts off again after about 30 minutes.

    Thread Getting actual storage specs on Nexus 6

    Is there a way to determine what the storage is on my phone? After flashing NBD90Z and loading my apps I'm seeing 9.29 of 25.98 used under storage. I know there is a bug that shows the incorrect sdcard size and that a format of userdata can fix that. The thing is I bought this phone used and...

    So who has theories on why this release has been limited to such a few sporadic outlets? I mean the Play Store I get since that is Google but why no other major electronics retailers?
