I don't use screen protectors and I've only had micro scratches that are so faint, you can't see them unless the screen is off and you're looking for them.

These scratches haven't ever caused me any problems selling devices.
[Moto X General] bobbysteels216:
Because argumentum ad hominem is valid right? Congratulations sir, you have another discussion victory to add to your résumé.
[Moto X General] DonDizzurp:
tiny particles of sand and what not that is trapped in your pockets or even on your desk (unlikely since it hardly touches) is whats causing this. gorilla glass is not a lie. rocks are harder than glass. metals are not harder than gorilla glass. this is why you can scratch your keys on it all day and have nothing but take a grain of sand and youll have a bunch of scratches

My Scratched Screen Experience

This is the only place I have found on all of the internet where someone mentions their Moto X scratching and I had the same issue. I had an iPhone 4 for 2 years, and the lord knows how fragile those things are, and got one tiny little barely noticeable except under certain light scratch on it maybe a year in.

I have had my Moto X 5 days and it's covered in little tiny scratches, including 2 that you can actually see and feel without looking too hard. The first time I contacted Motorola, the guy said "it's gorilla glass so that shouldn't happen..." then after persisting to say "Well I'm not making this up pal, my screen is scratched" he changed his mind and said "oh wait it isn't gorilla glass sorry we can't help you." I spoke with someone else later who was shocked that my phone was scratched and spoke with his supervisor. They agreed to send me a new phone and pay for me to ship my current one back. After enough hassle and confusion, Motorola is (hopefully, the transaction isn't complete yet) dealing with this very well.

I sincerely hope my phone and your phone were defective products. My fingernails don't go past the tops of my fingers, I leave my phone screen up on my desk most of the time, and it has a compartment in my wallet where it doesn't touch anything else when I'm on the go or I put it in my coat pocket, again maybe just with my rubber earphone cords touching it. But since when does rubber cut gorilla glass? Exactly.

Yes maybe a screen protector is reassurance but I haven't dropped the phone once or notably scratched it on anything so where are these tiny scratches coming from?

I would like to know if anyone else has had these so I can decide whether or not to dish out the money for a screen protector when I've never had to use one before nor do I have any interest in buying one unless my phone actually is at risk of scratching.
[Moto X General] samarth1:
I'm not sure where this myth originated from that Gorilla Glass is meant to be this unscratchable wonder material. It's fortified glass, not unscratchable. Its not made out of sapphire glass that only a diamond could scratch it. As many others have stated in this thread already, use your better judgment and don't have anything in your pocket but your phone. If you plan on doing it, or if that's not possible, then invest in a good, high-quality screen protector, such as the PowerSupport one that is available on Motorola's website. I can vouch for its quality and protection, and it feels as if it isn't even on the screen when put on properly. And, it comes with 2, so its well worth the money.

Wait, what? You put your phone in your wallet? How in the...

[Moto X General] jayboyyyy:
haha i love that episode. But he may just have a wallet case thing, who knows.
[Moto X General] RayMabry:
I reccomend Zagg HD. Even the one that comes w/ the commuter is decent.
[Moto X General] senk1gsc:
Gorilla is NOT indestructible, everything harder than glass can scratche it, thats why there are screen protectors, so i cant see whats all the buzz about :confused:
[Moto X General] 1ManWolfePack:
So screen protectors are harder than glass?
[Moto X General] senk1gsc:
Of course not, but they are cheap and easy to replace ... better a dollar or two screen protector than a 200$ screen
[Moto X General] 1ManWolfePack:
The best thing a screen protector is going to do is hold your broken glass in place. Tempered is a different story, one that adds thickness to the front of device.

I bought into the screen protector hype back in the day. Last three devices have been naked and it's a wonderful feeling. I agree with metaldude.
[Moto X General] theraffman:
Screen protectors aren't meant to save a screen from getting cracked, although on a minute level they do, they are many to save a screen from getting scratched.

I rarely run a screen protector or case on a phone, but the moto x has a coating that makes it a little more prone to scratches, so for the time being I am running a screen protector. Can't say I enjoy the phone any less with it on and I feel a little more confident that I won't scratch the screen when I throw my phone in my pocket.
[Moto X General] 1ManWolfePack:
I've always had a dedicated pocket for my phone. If you keep your keys or other crap in a pocket with your phone then you deserve a scratch. It's a $700 computer in your pocket - treat it as such.

Not necessarily directed towards poster above.
[Moto X General] JhonnyMichel:
My screen also got a tiny little scratch. It's almost imperceptible, but it was for nothing! I use a dedicated pocket, so I have no ideia about what happened.

Anyway, i'm getting a screen protector asap.
[Moto X General] theraffman:
Understandable for anyone in a position to keep a pocket dedicated for their phone, for those of use who don't, that is the risk we willingly take if we choose to go naked... That is why there are case and screen pro options. Anyone who doesn't choose to use one has no claim to ***** about damage to their phone, you forfeit that right when knowingly expose the device to that risk. I personally tend to wave my right and go naked, however, the moto x is just to beautiful of a phone to ruin at such an early age, so a screen protector I choose to don.
[Moto X General] 1ManWolfePack:
I agree. It's risky, and if it scratches it's my own damn fault.
[Moto X General] meant2live218:
Well, I'm coming from a Droid X, 3 years of use and it barely has any scratches on it. I never put any protector or case on it, I just took decent care of it. Don't put it face-down, don't put it in a pocket with keys or metal. The only scratches on the screen are from the half-year where I had a ceramic phone charm attached, and even those aren't noticeable unless I'm looking for them.

As for the Moto X, I'll likely be trying a screen protector for a while, but if it messes up the "feel" of the phone (subjective, I know) I'll probably just remove it and stay responsible with it.
[Moto X General] defuse:
Which one did you get? The Brillant or the Shock absorbing one?
[Moto X General] djdubw:
zagg invisibleshield hd.

lifetime warranty

comes with screen cleaner spray & cloth

I ran out of bullet points, but just check it out.
[Moto X General] Krouget:
My Moto X rolls fully naked, just like other devices before it.

It also never goes face-down. I stopped doing that back when I used CDs.
[Moto X General] djdubw:
I got a decent $12 dollar case off of Amazon and a $25 invisashield HD screen protector (free install @ best buy mobile, & lifetime warranty). No matter what a manufacture says they've used, I never trust myself not to scratch it.

[Moto X General] apetrok91:
Here's my thought:

Those of use who were unable to use motomaker on verizon and soon other companies, why could we not just buy the parts from a third party and customize ourselves?

I think it would be relatively easy compared to a screen replacement.

Where would we go about doing such a thing? Has anyone heard of anything like this? I think it would be easy and a great way for everyone to be able to have a custom moto x. :D
[Moto X General] Ivan Fuentes Hagar:
I'd love to see phones being made with replaceable snap-on plates, like the old Nokias. Only issue would be, there would be no way to stop people from using tacky designs from some cheap 3rd party plate makers.
[Moto X General] iandr0idos:
Have you seen the ifixit teardown? It might take a bit of effort to take off the backplate, and a new one might end up coming loose.
[Moto X General] apetrok91:
Personally it looks exactly like the Original Razr and that wasnt too hard. I've replaced parts on those before the back isnt that hard to take off and sticks again well, their adhesive is very strong.
[Moto X General] scorneil:
Maybe this site will eventually stock all colors?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
check the timestamps through an explorer on those files and compare with the ones you backed up.

Or make a backup, compare that with a tool like winmerge with the other backup. Not sure if winmerge can do that thought

But don't i need to do other steps like mount data n wipe dalvik cache etc...
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TheFixItMan:
No - your putting your phone back to the exact state it was in when backup was made - wiping things is not necessary and it auto mounts when restoring
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] ApexPredator01:
Are you Damn sure ?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TheFixItMan:
With respect I know what I'm talking about - iv tested nearly every rom here for my statusbar thread - iv backed up & restored my phone too many times to count

Hey guys . Plz help i installed hyperion 8 n now when i open recovery it opens cwm directly and when i select restore . It says error loading boot image... Pls help :/
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] aniket.lamba:
Coz the cwm is now your default recovery and yeah.. were you trying to restore cm7 backup? :what:
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] ApexPredator01:
Yess !
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] ApexPredator01:
I did exactly like these guys told me above :/
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TheFixItMan:
Oh dear - you do know to restore a cm7 backup you need to be on an ext4 partition and on percys kernel - if you flashed hyperion you will be savies kernel hence invalid boot image

flash percys kernel

reboot recovery

format system data cache flash (this changes system to ext4 for cm7 use)

advanced restore

restore system & data only
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] ApexPredator01:
How to do all that ?? :/
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TheFixItMan:
Well you should know - if you correctly flashed cm7 you would know how to flash percys kernel

If you flash roms you know how to format

and advanced recovery is in backup & restore in cwm

if you can't follow those instructions give up now and read the op of cm7 thread properly
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] ApexPredator01:
Can you plz give me proper steps procedure with download links PLEASEE !
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TheFixItMan:
Really are you being serious!

Steps already given

To restore cm7 backup

flash percys kernel

reboot recovery

format system data cache

advanced restore

restore system and data only

what links can you possibly need - if you have already flashed cm7 before you know where percy kernel is because you need to be on percys kernel to flash the latest percys cm7 (hint it's on percy's cm7 thread!)

if you hadn't noticed I'm getting fed up of people who want spoon feeding
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] thewarlord:
Dude!! We suggest u about how to restore STOCK ROM not cm7!!

Plz give ur full information what do u want??

U demand the process of restoring Stock Rom so we suggest that process !! :( :'(
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] ApexPredator01:
Yes man i want to restore stock Rom only !

And i thought by cm7 he meant clockworkmod not cyanogenmod :p
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] ApexPredator01:
Hey man. Im telling again i made a backup of my stock Rom using Clockworkmod . then i installed hyperion. now i want to go back to stock Rom using that backup. i followed steps you told earlier. it says Error loading boot image. Plz help now i!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TheFixItMan:
How many more times

use the kernel you were on when you made backup

or advance restore system and data only
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] thewarlord:
At first open nandroid.md5 !! U will find it in sdcard > clockworkmod > backup > ur backup!!

Open it in text editor and erase all the sums ( i means left it black) and save!!

Now open cwm

Go to backup and restore

Use advance backup and restore one by one except kernel !!

Now use kernel flashed v2 and flash that kernel u want!!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] ApexPredator01:
Oh Thank You Thank you Thank you, advanced restore worked, thanx alot Mann

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] palmerfr:
Hi all,

I'm facing a strange problem.

With my Xperia Z Ultra, when I insert a virgin mobile France SIM card, the phone goes in an infinite reboot loop... Can't do anything. It's the second SIM card from this carrier that does it.

With a T-Mobile US SIM card, it doesn't do it. But of course, I can't and don't want to use the T-Mobile SIM card in France.

Any thoughts? Our do I have a faulty unit and need to send it back to Hong Kong?

Thanks for your help

I had the same problem last week in Hungary with my Italian sim, 2 days before I was in Slovacchia without problems.

Came back at home in Italy everything works fine

Sorry but I really don't know why

It s look like a roaming problem

Apn maybe?

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] palmerfr:
Hi danilos2k,

I confirm it seems to be linked with roaming.

I've tried with 3 different sim cards from different carriers and only the ones from MVNO (Virgin mobile and Free mobile when roaming on Orange network in France) have this strange behavior.

Does anybody else has found this strange bug?

Good news,

The recent update for HK phones seems to have solved the problem.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] dhalmo:
I came up with a simple solution for turning your HTC One into a semi-desktop environment. My goal was to create a connection path to a PC monitor, keyboard and mouse with a simple docking solution, a dock-and-go approach. Here is what I came up with and it works great:

1. HTC One (Sprint Red version, JB 4.1.2) w/ NFC Task Launcher

2. RoHS Dock (Model: I4SC-HTON) with micro-USB

3. Samsung TecTile

4. MenoTek MHL to HDMI Adapter with RCP

5. HDMI Cable

6. StarTech HDMI to DisplayPort converter

7. Lenovo ThinkVision PC Monitor

8. IOGEAR Multi-Link Bluetooth Keyboard with Touchpad GKM611B

The end result is that I come to work, dock my HTC One (NFC enabled) with the TecTile attached to the Dock to enable and search for my bluetooth keyboard/mouse. Once the peripherals are synched I toggle my monitor to the DisplayPort digital input and my Android desktop is ready to go. The entire process takes less than 1 minute. It allows me to operate independently from my business LAN using wifi or 4G, and from the comfort of my desk. The output is currently limited to 720p resolution, which I believe to be the MHL adapter, but I'm working on that. The above varies slightly with your specific hardware but the concept remains the same.

I've very happy with this solution and I wanted to share it with everyone here. :victory:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
Sounds like a bit much. Depending on what you're needing it for, I guess some people could benefit. I just use AirDroid. As soon as I get to work I'm already connected to the office WiFi. Just go in and log in and I'm good to go. Can answer text messages, listen to music on my phone, view pictures, etc. Not a full experience, but it's enough for me.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] dhalmo:
I used to use AirDroid too, but I found that I didn't like my texts and emails going through my office LAN and business PC. I prefered having an parallel computing environment independent of the office, but one that transitions seamlessly. I have to agree, overkill, but fun! Go with what works for you!!!:good:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
It's a great write-up, without a doubt. I may even try it myself just because I like doing stuff like that.
