Android 6.0 Marshmallow Update:Google Nexus Users Deal With Sync Issues? Official List Of Devices Out Now!
Android 6.0 Marshmallow update rolled out to Google Nexus owners. However, some users apparently deal with sync issues.
According to NDTV Gadgets 360, several users have taken the issue on Google's support forum, Reddit, and AOSP tracker page. The publication has been also facing the same issue with its Nexus 6 test phone. It noted, "notifications from Gmail occasionally take hours before showing up on the device."
Though this is an issue Google is yet to acknowledge, Nexus users who are dealing with it believe that it stems from Android 6.0 Marshmallow Doze feature. Users who disabled "Gmail and some other Google apps and services from battery optimisation apparently fixes the issues," NDTV Gadgets 360 added.
"This is the answer that needs to be at the top. Gmail is getting dozed, causing sync to get disabled. Just remove it from battery optimisation and all issues should be resolved," a user wrote on Reddit.
Meanwhile, Google has already announced the official list of smartphones that are receiving the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update. Some phones are even starting to receive the OTA.
Reportedly, Moto G(Third Generation) commenced its OTA in New Delhi as announced on its official Twitter account.

On the other hand, Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge are on an Android Beta program of Android 6.0 Marshmallow. This will bring an overhauled interface for its TouchWiz UI.
Accordingly, it features "cleaner, and minimized look for its icons, combining white and blue for its windows." Though it is being said that users still have the option to change colors through themes, with some new ones being added with the new Android 6.0 Marshmallow based build, Christian Today reported.
