Updated to 6.0.1 but no change in tablet ui - Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I read everywhere that the latest update would bring change in tablet ui, such as back button on the far left and multi tasking on the far right. I got the update, some new features appeared (like double power button to launch the camera) but no changes for the UI. Anyone else in this situation? How to change that? I am on stock, unrooted (so far). Thanks

It's not available for the Nexus 7 or 9. http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015...-ton-of-new-emoji-and-weve-got-the-full-list/

Any guess why not?

The nav bar change is only for the Pixel C tablet.

Shame... I guess we'll have to wait next update to get it...

Oh, I found there was a change. I find it difficult to locate the correct spot to pull down the notification shade on the N9 after the 6.0.1 update.

Yea, do you have a cover?? It is bad enough in landscape to get your finger in the right place, but now a problem in portrait, for me.
Apart from that I didn't notice any change

Yes, a Poetic Slimline series. But it's hard to see the case being the cause. I'll have to test with the cover off.

Q)Do you see the left edges cut off when you install this one? Like New Notebook menu and templates?
A)yes, it's due to the smaller screen but if you use the touchpad in vertical you can see all the templates.
If you find new version post it

I got it from here. But the app still gets cut off even on portrait mode, you can't scroll as the scrollbar is cut off, sadly.

Got it installed in my gnex, so far no issues it doesn't look the same but so far is working, I figured I give it a shot so we can pass the news...
Just installed this on my touchpad...really cool.
Great app, ordered a pen to write some notes on it. If anyone figures out how to fix sizing let is all know!

[Q] Touch screen too sensitive

Is it just my phone or is the touch screen a bit too sensitive? All I have to do is hover my finger over the screen and it registers a touch - which can get old when you're typing. I only noticed it today though. Anyone else?
Turn of glove mode
Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk 2
same here, i also felt that it was very sensitive. i often accidently pressed something while scrolling - toggling glove mode did not really change a lot. got my nilkin tempered glass protector some days ago though, its perfect now with it
If you turn off glove mode, you have to touch screen to register, with glove mode on hovering your finger above screen is enough to register

That's the first thing I checked; glove mode is off. It was worse last night then it is this morning. About the only thing I did was flash back the .69 stock kernel to see if that made any difference. I know that between the rom and custom kernel, there are a number of customizations going on. (not insinuating anything about either - just trying to eliminate possibilities if this isn't by design). Plus I shot a mail off to Sony as I saw a few people on their support site mentioning the same thing.
OR I could just be OCD lol.

I know that's what it sounds like - but both of us have checked and glove mode was off. Anyway, I flashed the stock kernel (.69) last night and it's not so bad today. Whether there is any correlation w/ respect to that is another question.

I have the same problem as well since I opened the box ... And I definitely don't have glove mode on. This is the only complaint I have about the phone really. Otherwise, it's fantastic.
Possible solution
If this problem is still an issue: This seems to be a problem with most Sony devices snapdragon 800 and up. In the Xperia Z Ultra forum what we did to solve the issue was to root the device. Then use root Explorer then go to system>usr>idc>open "max1187x_touchscreen_" and change this line from "touch.filter.level = 2" to "touch.filter.level = 5". That's it. All that needs to be changed is one character. Seriously.... SMH Sony.

Problem still persists for me. Changed to 5, then rebooted, and i can still hover my finger and registers as a touch. I'm on Carbon though, is it stock rom only?
Edit: after a couple more reboots, it's working! Not too sensitive anymore. Can I change it down to 4 to make it more sensitive? Is it like a scale? But it did screw up some other things, xposed doesn't work now.. Will have to find out why.
Edit2: no I can still hover.. Maybe it was working, maybe it was placebo.

It is like a scale and 5 worked great for us. I don't know about anyone else but I did this on the stock rom. Maybe you could try 6 or 7? Definitely wasn't a placebo for me. I Couldn't even use both fingers on the screen at the same time without this mod. I just couldn't play games at all because everything would lean to one side just because of a little dirt or moisture. I could not even send messages and right now I'm typing this reply on my z ultra gpe.

Touch Screen issues #MotoXForce
Well I just got a Moto X Force ( Marshmallow 6.0) and I'm having an issue with the touch screen . It happens about 9-10 times a day . maybe more . and it's random from what I have noticed .Thing is , *sometimes* I would approach the icon of an app( or a button to click on a website) with my thumb/finger , and the touch is registered wihout even me actually physically touching the screen yet , not saying that something else opens up ,no, only that app opens up which I was about to , initially , but I'm pretty damn sure that a lot of times it has happened while my finger is still approaching the screen , I.e. hovering over the touch screen. Anyone here got that one ? Would be great if i can get some clue .
Thanks!!

Well , then , either its the firmare (Hopefully ) or that the screen is defective ( OMG Please no ) , will reset the phone a couple more times and see what comes up , maybe wait for an update from google on the software side , visiting a service center would be my last resort , people at the service centers in this country are more clueless than I am , they'd just try and wouldn't be able to do anything but damage my device further and wouldn't even claim they did it leaving me no choice other than to get a new phone , thanks for the concern tho !
Hi guys,
is this problem / random glove mode activated still exist on .575 ??
My Z2a (running on .575 MM ROM) still face this issue. Sad.
My devices is not rooted, so i can not try to edit screen-sensitivity related file.
This problem so annoying

Any fixes for the red background where the pixels used to be off/ambient mode?

Running stock firmware on a ZenWatch 2 Wren. Day one the phone was weird with some ASUS watchfaces. Sometimes AMOLED black would be red/purple instead of black. Only fix was turning up the brightness, oddly enough. I've used the options in developer settings, changed the DPI via adb, etc. AoD just looks red now and I've read every solution I found. Any thoughts?
No, its a hardware thing.

BURN IN

Guys, do you have a BURN IN on your device ?
I Got one, but i did Not leave the Phone on for hours or Something Like that
Probably image retention, it should go away.
Though I suppose that's on a very low brightness on gray background, I don't see it as a big deal.

What most likely happened is that a logo or picture stayed on your screen long enough for the OLED pixels to become discolored. This is what happens with Plasma and OLED TVs. If you're going to have something static on your screen like navbars or a logo, it's usually best to have them solid white or black along with the rest of your screen. A lot of people with Pixel phones have reported the same thing.
Call LG and have them replace it, hopefully you sign up for the second year warranty.

I've noticed the same on the bottom where the soft buttons are (when I hide the buttons). It doesn't look quite as bad as yours, but there's definitely a noticeable bar that's off-colored.
Mine's the same way at the bottom. Not sure at the base at the top. I just started yesterday to hide the navigation bar at the bottom.

You can skip update for a while and eventually will bother you so much, that you will just update to get rid of it. Yeah, I hate aggressive update policy.

Well, with @Saratoga79 guidance all is (almost) back to normal. few clicks are different but hey, the old bitton layout and functionality is still there. Much appreciated such quick resolution and utmost appreciated commitment by @Saratoga79. As for wherethis one is going... it almost seem they built this ver for Pace and not for Stratos...
Btw, my watch seems faster and snappier now... not a placebo as far as I can tell.
Don't kill me, but so far I like new buttons mapping
