Man, what an asshole comment!!!

sent from my blue police box flying through time......
[Moto X General] saucyross:
Who even bases their "best phone" on if people use the phone 1 year from now? Technology in general advances faster than that. There'd be no point to hold onto the phone just for the sake of holding onto it while there is better stuff out there. There's no need to be mean rude to the X owners, they're very happy with their phones. Not sure why you can't just leave it to that.

I have a One, but played with an X a little bit in a Best Buy. It really is insane how they have the same size screen but the X is so much smaller.
[Moto X General] cc16177:
I was gonna say the same thing. I base my phone choice on whether or not it's something that i'll still want in six months or so. Not only that, but i've become addicted to the battery life on this phone and if the Nexus 5 really does release with a similarly sized battery and quad core cpu I almost guarantee it will not be able to compare to the battery life on the X.
[Moto X General] davidtb12:
Gotta say that I am thoroughly enjoying my x, the active notifications are awesome, battery life surprised me, getting 4.5 hours screen on time in a day, and as far as the toggles, if you root and use xposed installer, the gravity box module let's you customize the toggles, the nav bar height, you can set it so when you pull the notification panel down the toggles show when no notifications are present etc.... Overall I'm quite impressed with this phone
[Moto X General] nerdwaller:
Agreed, I've jumped between more phones than I'd like to admit.

The only thing I'm interested in is the new Nexus (when it's announced, anyway). But that's because I want a fully open device that I can fully control. But that requires a change to AT&T.
[Moto X General] bigmook:
After installing the launcher from the Ultra with the 3d Circle widget and the slide toggles on the left I don't need to root even though I have a developer edition I haven't rooted yet.
[Moto X General] wturner859:
I'm a huge Nexus fan... I also work for VZW... This is the closest thing I'll have to a nexus... It's even shaped like a nexus and has no logos on the front which I'm a fan of... There are a lot of things I like about it, but my girlfriend bought my s4 outright for my birthday in May and it has sentimental value... Once my Nano-2-micro sim adapter Comes in I'll switch back and forth between them every couple days.
[Moto X General] saucyross:
I hate to put Google down ahead of the release, but I'd definitely agree with you. The Nexus 5 is supposed to be rocking a Snapdragon 800, and that's going to suck up a hefty amount of battery.
[Moto X General] joveezy:
I know it's a bit of an old thread, but I currently have a verizon htc one and I would like to switch to a moto x. It's too late for me to return the HTC one though. Anyone have any ideas how I can switch besides buying the moto x outright? I've been thinking about trading with someone. Seems like it would be hard to find someone though who is willing to swap.
[Moto X General] theraffman:
Sell it on swappa and but the moto x, a trade would be unlikely.
[Moto X General] angelriathica:
I have to agree to..had both HTC one and s4. But when I got the X, I don't miss the others not one bit..
[Moto X General] br0nx finest:
That's not true. I traded someone my Sprint GS3 + $100 for a Sprint Moto X. Some people just want something they already are used to.
[Moto X General] theraffman:
It's not impossible, that's why I said unlikely instead... The odds of finding a trade is going to be minimal, he's better off selling his phone and using that money to buy a moto x.

You just got lucky... I've been looking for trades, and i can't find any. I have 2 sgs3s just sitting around... Don't have the energy to sell them, but I'd do a trade, but can't find anyone who wants to part with their moto x.
[Moto X General] br0nx finest:
Craigslist brother, I had the hardest time selling my sgs3 as well. Definitely love this Moto X, wouldn't trade back for the world lol.
[Moto X General] joveezy:
Thanks for any advice.

I'm currently in the process of selling my htc one. Since I'm new to selling phones, is it even possible to sell my HTC one that's still under contract without any problems to the buyer?

If I do buy a moto x, how can I get a nano Sim card?
[Moto X General] theraffman:
Yes, you can sell a device still under contract.

I have att, I just went to an att store when I received my moto x and they gave me a new Sim card... Not sure how that works with other carriers though.

Also, you can cut down your old Sim card to work with the moto x, there are plenty if guides on how to do this all over the place.
[Moto X General] MikeG7265:
I bought my Dev edition X to swap between it and my HTC One, but since I've had the X, I haven't even given my One a second thought. Now I'm considering selling my One and purchasing a second X when VZW gets the Moto Maker, that's how much I've enjoyed this device.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] therawuncut:
Loving my HTC One X so far. I have it unlocked, activated on T-Mobile, and running the ViperXL ROM and reception is less than stellar at my house. My wife has the exact same phone (not sure of radio at the moment) and gets 3 bars when I get no service.

The baseband version currently shows as ATT 2.20 (0.19as.32.09.11_2_10.105.32.25). Is it acceptable to flash the HTC ATT 3.18 (0.24p.32.09.06_10.130.32.34) ? Not sure of the difference between the HTC ATT and the ATT radios. I'm in the US, if that makes any difference.

Thanks in advance!!!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
The letters "HTC" don't make any difference. They are all from HTC. The difference is one is a later version. Country doesn't make a difference either. The proper radio for your location is often just trial and error. So yes, flashing a different radio is certainly worth a try.

Also, you need to be s-off to flash radios.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] therawuncut:
Thanks for the information. I've updated the radio to the exact same version as my wife's, but coverage hasn't changed.

Is it possible the ROM/Kernel is to blame? I'm going to test with EternittyProject's CM 10.2 ROM and Kernel to see if that helps anything.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 954wrecker:
Be careful because flashing a rom for the wrong phone will NOT help your radio issue

Hello my friends, i have this big problem with my haier w910. It's 8gb phone, with external sd card, but when i install a bigger game (like 2gb) it doesn't save on my sd card, but on my phone memory. It is like formated to 2 partitions : phone memory and sd card ( 2 gb and 4gb) and my sd card is seen like extended sd card (subordinate or something) and i can't move my sd data. What can i do? *sorry for bad english :P :cowboy:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optixeey:
You can try Folder Mount , but you will have to root your phone if you haven't already. There is also a few other solutions like the Swap sd app or setting your default install location the sd card.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattwarend:
Hi.

I contact the sav. They check my phone and detect that knox warranty was void and rooted.

So no warranty, i ve to pay about 100€ to repair !!!

The problem is that my efs partition is break, ive no Imei on my phone.

Do you know if there is a solution to restore my efs without to ask to the sav ?

I précise that i ve only access to my phone in Odin. Not detected under Windows. No boot possible.

I ve made a backup of my efs by twrp but dont know if possible to use it. Restore by twrp dont worked.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] airyras:
Your english is horrible. How did u lose imei? You should've backed up the efs as soon as you rooted.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattwarend:
Thank you for english is horrible... I try to explain me it is difficult.

I know that is should have done à backup first but i dont do it, that is why i ask the question.

Id like to know if someone have a solution or if i must return my phone to sav.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dehaani:
Is there really any need for that? I understand perfectly well what he's asking, he's not trying for a Pulitzer prize here; just asking for some help on a forum.

Sorry, I think you'd be best paying for the repair. There is currently no way to regenerate EFS.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattwarend:

My note 3 also in service center. No choice brother... Lets hope for good...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cgi:
I think this is not applicable in this case.

The maker is only responsible for things that are his fault.

AFAIK the maker can not be held liable for something the user broke himself.

If you drop your phone and the screen breaks, then there is no obligation for the maker to fix it for free under warranty.

In the same way, if you overwrite the bootloader or EFS by accident and bricked your phone, then it is your own fault.

Another case would be, if the home button just fell off. In that case it clearly has nothing to do with the software modification and so the maker can not refuse warranty on be basis that the software has been modified.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ValenteL:
I had a case on my Note 10.1 N8000 where the partition efs was deleted, yes the partition, not the contentes and I arrived to solve my N8000.

See here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2204960 on post #4.

But look, this command and efs partition can be different or impossible on Note 3. Speak whit a Note 3 DEV. first.

mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p3

PS: On Note 3 the efs partition is mmcblk0p11.

Good luck

Oh well. This sort of thing is always a risk when rooting. You lost out this time.

You might be able to get it done cheaper if you find a mobile phone store with an octopus box but then maybe this phone is too new to be supported by that option.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayssincethedoor:
So I bought the official qi wireless charging back plate for the S 4. When I charge it up wirelessly to 100% the little green light comes on with the message saying to remove it from the charger. When I do the light does not turn and the message does not go away. I either have to plug it into a wired charger or restart the phone to get it to stop.

I thought at first that it would go away after a little while once the battery drained down. I have played games on the phone for 15 minutes which should drain the battery a good bit and it will stay at 100% according to the battery stats. After a reboot it will show 90% and I know a reboot does not drain that much battery.

I have tried different charging pads with the same results. Anyone else have this problem?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2dorr:
Yes I get that also. I have Yinjeng receiver and one white ebay charger pad and one LG charger pad. With LG pad it's charging till 100%, with the ebay pad it goes to 100% and after I lift the phone I still have a green battery in the left side of Notification bar. And indeed I can use the phone and it stays at 100%. Only a reboot solve the problem.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayssincethedoor:
So the LG charging pad doesn't cause it to get stuck like that?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dayssincethedoor:
Just noticed that when it is stuck like that and I plug it in to a wired charger it says 'Switching to wired charging' or something like that. I wonder what controls that and it is something I can reset.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] qui:
Hi guys, this is not my lucky week, I dropped my Exec yesterday onto laminated floor from abour 3' it was oki so I was happy, dispite it drawing my attention to the dodgy stick on strip by the speakers thats now peeling after giving it a thorough examination. I dropped it again today, this time only a bath room floor with that odd grit like surface, this time its scratched up one of the corners realatively bad. I have also noticed now an odd hinge noise when opening the Exec, sort of like a creek or cracking noise, not to mention the fact that it now switches itself off and hard locks after a random period of playing music in both WMP and TCMP, is this sufficient reasoning to send it back to O2, is there a way I can get a replacement? The hinge noise and random crash hard locking was occuring before the 2 falls.

In other news, I also bumped my car in the work car park against an impossibly low wall, car got a little scratch on rear bumper out of sight, but is a testiment to my bad luck this week.

Would need to know quite quickly if I can get a replacement or should just return it to O2 as I have about 3 days left of 14 day money back guarentee left.

Thanks

What are tonight's lucky lotto numbers then, qui?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] dvl:
lol

bad luck..

I dropped my phones so often that i learned to live with it.. first day i had a brand new qtek s100 i dropped it on the carpet in my bedroom.. with the screen right on top of a screw.. only 1 screw lying on the floor in the whole room .. huge dent in the screen LOL

Cars... i bought 3 cars now.. first one head gasket blew, 2nd one valves started to sound like a diesel and the one i have now leaves huge trails of smoke when driving above 130km/h LMAO i can cry but i wont so i will laugh

And i have several of those stories.. haha nowadays i insure my new mobiles for damage by my self and insure it against theft etc..

If you don't have a special insurance you wont get a new phone or a repair if it damaged, the will blame it on you.

Just learn to live with it haha
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] SiliconS:
Yeah, I don't suppose O2 will replace it FOC with damage unless you've got the insurance.

Bad luck qui :cry: . These things are pretty heavy so I'm not surprised it's suffered after a drop. Perhaps I should consider using the leather case for mine now... :(
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] qui:
I have insurance, however its on my old XDAII, forgot to add the Exec to it, however surely the hinge noise which is like a creeking/crack type noise as well as the random switch off the hard locks are cause to get the phone replaced. I have managed to buff out the scratch some what that its quite faint noise, you would be surprised what a little graphite and a polishing cloth can do these days :lol:.

Anyway can you tell me if they will replace is due the the hinge and software problem?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] dvl:
hmm

cracking noise i have too MDA PRO, only when i open it after not having used it for a while.. is gone after that first cracking noise hehe

You could try to hand in you Exec, and claim it as your xdII lol.. but if you are very unlucky they send you an brand new shiney XDA II back instead of your EXEC

:twisted:

I'm now wondering whether I should have selected the £59 O2 Insurance (or whatever it costs)...

I've had a few minor incidents with my XDA2, I've never dropped it though.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] qui:
Oki, looking at O2 Insurance T&C I can still buy insurance for the phone, are they likely to replace it for minor damage to the phone chassis?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Mart:
They'll most probably ask you to send the phone off for repair, rather than issuing you with a replacement.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] qui:
Just called O2, since I am in 14 day still I told the nice lady my issues, being the creeking hinge and the reseting hardlocking when playing music and she has agreed to send me a replacement, didnt even need to BS or explain about the dropping incidents, seems that if your in 14 days you will get replacement no matter what.

try that with orange or tmobile. lol or any operator in holland and they wont do it LOL..

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mike freegan:
Careful, 02 like to give you refurbished handsets on the insurance. If the new one arrives and it's clearly been opened before (IE no outer box, bags inside are open) then you should ask for a 'New' one. Chances are a refurb had a problem before which will resurface after a while.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mavrik64:
I feel for ya, I dropped mine having had it only two days, the damn thing just got away from me - small scratch on the edge of the caseing. Then I went and dropped it a couple of days later on the tiled bathroom floor - ouch. Small dent in the edge of the lid now. Still working like a dream though.

I figured I would probably be dropping this a few more times over the course of a year so I'll replace it through the O2 insurance when it dies.

Please let us know if the replacement exec you get is in fact a new one, I'm still inside my 14 days at the moment.

Hello xda users :)

I am new here, and I have some noob questions. I need to know them to feel me more comfortable oO

I have rooted my Sony xperia arc S (LT18i) some time ago. (Gingerbread)

Now I want to upgrade the stock ROM to 4 or higher, but I have some questions:

1st. Do I have to upgrade the stock ROM using flashtool again?

2nd. Do I loose the root acces once I have flashed it? I haven seen this question in other webs, but I haven's seen a clean answer, so I am not sure...

3rd. Is there any android "emulator" on pc to experiment? I have seen some of them, but I am not sure If I can "root" there, or change "roms"

Hi, I'm having a really difficult time with my S3. I've rooted and flashed it with Supernexus 3 (4.3) however it has been constantly locking up and freezing randomly. Approximately 15 times a day.
