[Moto X Q&A] natezire71:
Oh **** that's smart. That's REALLY smart. I was thinking maybe get a G2 and sell it.
[Moto X Q&A] natezire71:
Oh yeah. Duh... Lol.
[Moto X Q&A] sleepyguy007:
yeah if you are trying to effectively sell your upgrade, its almost always best to get an apple product.

i mean if you got a gold one right now who knows you could probably do pretty well.
[Moto X Q&A] natezire71:
The thing is, I didn't want to spend $200 or whatever the 5s costs. I wanted to spend $100 on Amazon for the upgrade to the Moto X. However, if I paid $20 more, I could get a G2.
[Moto X Q&A] sleepyguy007:
valid point.

but i think you'll get more for a iphone.

and i think the market for itis bigger . i mean if the G2 costs $80 less, but someone pays you $100 more for the iphone.. i tend to like doign the iphone route, just because theres so many "THE HOTTEST ANDROID" phone that they drop in price fast. with the iphone if you are slow to sell it, you arent gonna immediately lose value.

if you can upgrade using verizonwireless.com you acn do the VERIZON30 code on say the note 3 and get 30% off. dont know if that works on iphone. and then sell the note 3 possibly is another idea.
[Moto X Q&A] tw1tch175:
This and also do everything you can to keep them from even opening the box the phone it in, with the plastic still on it it's worth more
[Moto X Q&A] natezire71:
I just did the Math. Assuming I sell the iPhone for $620... the iPhone upgrade costs $200. The Moto X Dev Edition is $700. In the end, I pay $280.

With the G2, if I sell it for $530, the upgrade is $120. In the end, I pay $290.

Only reason I'm hesitant to do this is because it's still $300, albeit, cheaper. I can't complain. I would prefer to get the consumer edition though. I kinda ruled out the dev edition anyways. I appreciate the idea though. I will have to remember that one.
[Moto X Q&A] stillthisguy:
Sell the iPhone on swappa, you will get more than 620.
[Moto X Q&A] natezire71:
My god you're correct. Crunching the numbers now.
[Moto X Q&A] natezire71:
Any idea where to get a Gold iPhone 5S 16GB? Everywhere is on backorder.
[Moto X Q&A] theraffman:
That's why they go for so much... Can't believe people will pay that much for a 699 device just because it a gold color... They should rename the color from "gold" to "fools gold"
[Moto X Q&A] sleepyguy007:
One of my coworkers got a gold one. This is also a guy who spends just about every dime he earns. I don't get why people want it so much it looks incredibly tacky in person. I guess I just like non descript phones. Black moto x > gold iPhone anyday!
[Moto X Q&A] theraffman:
Overall it just seems like a last ditch effort on Apple's part. They haven't been able to wow the industry with innovation, so they may as well make them shiny...

I've seen a couple and I think they are ridiculous, looks more like a fashion accessory than a smart phone, 99%of my friends still on iOS have all said they would even get one.

Someone needs to tell Apple not to try to hard to look like they are trying to hard. They have always tried to push the "premium" device angle and now that everyone knows that it's BS, they had to do something to reinforce their marketing scheme... "But we have gold phones" /slowly makes masturbatory hand movements.
[Moto X Q&A] pjcons:
Haha...sorry but that's can i say it, comedy GOLD!! :good:
[Moto X Q&A] lensgrabber:
Sell some blood, sperm, or your first born. That should bring in some money. :) Seriously though. The dev edition is stupid expensive but so are the other Google Edition (non Nexus) phones. If Verizon is your only choice then is certainly limits what is on the menu. The only thing I am disappointed in with the X is the camera. Low light pictures are very noisy. I'll be playing with the camera today outside so hopefully it works better outdoors. Everything else is worth the money.
[Moto X Q&A] natezire71:
I'm coming from a Gnexus. Its better than that. :P
[Moto X Q&A] lensgrabber:
The X destroys the Gnexus. (except for full Google Wallet support)

The Gnexus is a great phone but the N4, in my opinion, is much better. Throw in the X and the Gnexus just gets creamed.
[Moto X Q&A] natezire71:
Which is why I'm on the phone calling every Verizon store in a 50 mile radius from me trying to see if they have any Gold iPhone 5Ss. Hehe.
[Moto X Q&A] natezire71:
Gold iPhone 5S--freaking iShills, hahahaha. I've called every Best Buy, Verizon Store, Radio Shack, Walmart and Target in a 75 mile radius from me. Nothing. Looks like the Dev edition won't happen. :|
[Moto X Q&A] robsw:
I have to say, as much as I liked my N4, I love my Moto X DE more. I sold my N4 and retired my unlocked, S-off, Super CID HTC One when I got it. My only complaint is the current lack of developer support.
[Moto X Q&A] The Android Attorney:
I don't know much about the Moto X development but just buy the Moto x non-dev edition. Hopefully soon someone on here will unlock the bootloader and then kernels and Roms will be pouring in. If the bootloader for the Moto x is still locked, then (I THINK) there aren't any kernels and not many Roms yet. Also i think spending money on the development edition considering there isn't much you can do with it yet, isn't a wise investment. I have an Atrix HD and this sort of thing happened. They unlocked the bootloader in April and then Roms and kernels poured in. But like i said i am not familiar with the Moto x development that's going on.

Hi my HTC Raider is not booting, tried a hard reset, and it just goes to a symbol of phone with red triangle and exclamation mark inside it.

Is there a way to reflash the stock rom, if so could someone provide links and possible a guide that would be awesome
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:

thank you for the help much appreciated
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Nervous_Jester:
which rec

the ruu is not working keeps saying usb error, also when I go into recovery made keeps saying there is no image file, is there a way to get that back on the phone

[Networking] spacekiek:
Dear all,

I've tried almost everything to make a LAN bluetooth network, but no luck so far.

I've paired up my PDA with my PC, but at the end of the wizard I can't select any services, although I have a bluetooth network connection available in 'network connections'.

Is there some driver I need to install first ? I've heard something about 'PAN' for bluetooth wich is necessary for the use of internet over bluetooth ??

Can anyone help me how to do this ??

Oh yeah, I haven't got a XDA based PDA, but a DELL Axim X50v with windows mobile 2005, but i guess this is a general question wich is valid for all types of PDA's ?

Thanks in advance
[Networking] Rudegar:
the ms bluetooth stack dont support PEN

vidcomm does

or you can just connect to activesync then your pda

have the same network access as your pc unless you have

it disabled that is
[Networking] spacekiek:
I've already found the answer. (finally fieuw)

Now I can synchronize AND surf the internet through Bluetooth !!

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samyoue:
Just wondering if it's possible to use nexus 10 as essentially a portable hdmi monitor. I would like to Sometimes play console in lounge without taking up the TV and just wondered if it's possible to connect console to nexus basically... I already have a HDMI to mini HDMI lead... Wireless would be even better although not essential... Briefly investigated screen cast but seems like this is only designed to wirelessly stream to a TV (which already has hdmi input)

Many Thanks,

Sam.

Ps my N10 is currently not rooted although I would consider rooting if it would enable such a possibility
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SeaFractor:
N10 is designed for OUTPUT only.

That said, it's resolution is high enough that it would be a cool feature, but it's OUTPUT only.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samyoue:
Thanks for the reply I figured that might be the case, any ideas if its possible in a virtual sense? Ie plug a transmitter into console or other hdmi output and have it transmit the signal which can be picked up in an app like YouTube (but source is generated from transmitter rather than the Web)

Thanks again
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dibblebill:
Only solution I know of right now is Onlive, but then you have to pay for the game AND a subscription.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvmacd:
This might be possible, depending on what you want to play.

If it's a DVD/blu ray, you can stream that on a local wifi network with VLC on a computer, and play it on MX player on your tab, just point MX to the address of the stream.

Swiped from my Nexus 10 using xda-developers app
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samyoue:
I'm after doing it without a intermediary computer, that said I'm currently looking into hdmi to composite adapter into a raspberry pi and using that to stream to network and picking it up via this mx player you mentioned...
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvmacd:
That could be possible, but yikes! HDMI to composite is like going back light years of technology! ;)

But yeah I've wanted to do the same in the past, to run my GameCube without a TV.

I ended up with a LCD hdtv with hdmi, component, composite and vga, so I just use that (mostly for my PS3 now).

I actually just ordered a pi last week!

I'm going to use it as a file server with a 1.5TB usb drive, and also a Wi-Fi repeater, on top of that, a torrent box (qBittorrent with http remote interface).

Gl though with the video thing!

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentaXx:
Hey,

i want to share with you my recent experience with the german and probably also austrian repair shop for Motorola phones, called datrepair. They're also partners with Samsung, Sony, and Apple. The reason i had to send my phone in was because of a broken audio jack since day 1, which i didn't notice at first (i thought of my headphones) and then waited for a replacement phone.

First of all, if it comes to the point you have to send in your phone for repairment, everything is really professional, you can even look up the current status of the repair. Also it really didn't take long to repair.

The one and only thing that's shocking is how lousy they seem to care about the phones. Here's what fell right out of the package i received when i was happy to finally get it back and proceed to root it:

I want to remark that my phone was in a condition i'd best describe as "like brand new", apart from a small part of silver shining through the lower edge of the display border and some little marks near the USB port. Not a scratch, the display has the same film since day 1 - not a single fingerprint was ever on this display.

Damages:

- obviously, Motorola logo not sticking to the phone anymore, i can see the glue pad

- left side of the R in the logo damaged, you can see it if you look closely

- all six torx screws scratched, that's probably not avoidable but they could've at least changed them after disassembly - massive resell value lost

- the display film is damaged / dirt under it but that's not that big of a deal as this was the first one of my 6 i used. Anyway this probably could have been avoided, not even the film had a single scratch..

I'll keep you updated. I instantly sent an email to their support hotline as they're only taking calls till 17.00 and i was home shortly after this. Also, i didn't want to pay 14ct/minute as i will pay another 5€ to ship it back to them again. If they were within 100km range from me, i would jump into my car tomorrow and throw this excellent example of astonishing quality control and professional labor right into the guy's face that "repaired" it. Even i can solder a audio jack, but i would have lost my guarantee if i did so. It's really shocking how people in shops handle your personal stuff, i recently experienced the third damage done to my car in my official dealership within 1.5 years, this time they damaged a rim that's worth 450€ (a single one, not four!) and made by the official tuner of the car company. Everybody in this place knows how much they're worth, .. wait, i am slowly drifting away from the topic.

What do you think of this? I think i'll also contact Motorola themselves, just to be sure something WILL happen if the shop damages it again.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNeo92x:
Well, I'm happy that I've seen your post. I own a rooted Razr i so i don't have any guarantee and that's why I'm very carefull with it. But my sister owns also a Razr i (not rooted) and she still has a guarantee. The problem is, her phone fell down on the street and the aluminum part is little bit scratched and bent. Also there are very thin black stripes on her display now, but her display works perfectly. Now I thought about sending it to the same repair service you did and even asked them about it. They said it will be about 150€! That's when I thought to leave it be. But after I saw your post, I decide to NEVER send it to them.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentaXx:
After 20 mins of phone ringing, they picked up at excactly 17pm. I'll get a free postage stamp, so i won't pay for the shipment back to them. So far, service or at least "customer care" seems to be good, but i'm still interested in how i'll get the phone back. I'd bet they just glue the logo with the little dent in it.

Don't pay 150€ to repair it! Think of how much you'd still get for it in ebay. Sell it and buy another one, it's only 280€ now. I think it's realistic that you'd get 120€ for your phone, so for another 150 you could get a brand new one. Or, better option, try to fix it yourself.. ;) Where excactly from germany are you?
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xNeo92x:
I'm from Herborn which is in Hessen.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CentaXx:
Ok, if you were from berlin or close to it i would have offered you that we'll take a look inside it together. I'd go not as far and consider myself an expert but i repaired a few electric devices and i'm studying electronic engineering, so i know quite a bit about that ..

MAJOR UPDATE!

Got an email today, phone can't be repaired. I'm offered to get full refund for the price i bought it. As i got it in a contract, i hope i'll receive the 360-385€ it was worth when i got it. If this will happen, i'll let go of my razr i experiment and switch back to HTC with their One. I guess, looking back the razr i was a bad chose for me - i like the look, love the size, battery life was great but i'm missing developers. I already found myself looking jelly across the pond to some One users and the astonishing software that comes with the marvellous looks.

However, it's a real shame for the shop and i will definitely contact motorola after i'm finally done with this s***. What do they think of themselves? I can get torx screws to replace the now scratched ones in every hardware story myself. Also i don't think that the 50ct motorola logo is so unique and can't be glued back into place again that it'll make the phone irreparable.

I'll be so relieved if this works out, i'm just afraid for the next bad thing to happen..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GirLuvsDroid:
I haven't been able to figure out how to change the lockscreen wallpaper/background or add any widgets to the lockscreen. From reading "tips and tricks" generally applicable to most versions of the Note 3, it appears to me that Verizon has limited our lockscreen options compared to the other carriers. Has anyone figured out how to do this?

I have to say, this is frustrating, since I'm used to rooting and flashing ROMs that give me so much customization. That said, this phone is a beast!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zklyons:
Hello!

I just recently returned to Canada from South Korea. While there I bought a Samsung galaxy s3 3g. When I left I broke my contract and was told the phone was unlocked and I could use it in Canada. However, when I tried using a Canadian sim card it didn't work. When I start the phone the SK telecom logo still pops up. I tried phoning SK and asking them to unlock it, but they say all their phones are unlocked.

Any suggestions on how to get the phone to work in Canada would be great, thanks!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wangdaning:
You need to give more information if you want an answer. What does the phone do? What rom are you on? etc
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zklyons:
Sorry! I'm not on any rom. The phone works fine using wifi but when I tried to go sign up for a phone plan after returning from Korea I was told my phone is locked to SK still, even though SK says it isn't. I really dont know much about phones, so I'm not sure what other information is needed.

I was just wondering how to get my phone unlocked, or to get it sk that I can use it with a Canadian sim card.

Sorry of this wasn't the place to ask a question like that.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osiris010:
I've had my G2 now for almost two weeks and although I love it I've been having a very strange (and incredibly annoying) issue with my GPS.

It started today, took my phone off the charger and looked up the bus times. I pulled it out once I got to work and noticed the GPS was turned on. I thought it was strange but I turned it off only to pull my phone out again two minutes later to find that it had turned itself back on again. I was not in any app at the time.

It happened again after work when I unlocked the phone and checked Facebook it turned itself on while I was using the phone. It happened at least two more times as soon as I made a phone call I happened to check the time and noticed the GPS was on again, at the time I placed the call GPS was off. I turned off only to find it back on again after the call ended.

In total, GPS has turned itself on at least 6 times today (I've lost count as this point) NOT INCLUDING the THREE times it has turned itself on while writing this post - at what seems to be almost 5 minute intervals (although still seemingly random).

here's the kicker, since I haven't installed any new apps in the past few days I don't know what could be the cause of this. in fact, I actually DISABLED location services yesterday (or the day before), further confusing the Hell out of me. in an attempt to preserve battery as recommended with positive results in another thread.

I noticed a similar issue in a forum on another website but the author determined it as the stock weather widget causing the issue. I don't use the stock weather widget, I use the Android Weather widget and specify manual updating in the settings (I click refresh on the widget every time)

This is so incredibly irritating, does anyone have any idea what could possibly be the issue?

EDIT

I noticed my battery is lower than usual today and I just checked my battery usage...Android System has ate a whopping 59% of my battery, it even tells me to manually turn on and off GPS which is what I do!! it says GPS has a total time of almost 11 hours! I have a screenshot but it's not let letting me post it at the moment

EDIT
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kobefan2476:
Maybe it's carrier iq related? I want to say I saw a thread on here where someone was saying carrier iq kept activating the gps.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osiris010:
I can't stand carrier iq, and I [strongly dislike] that at&t supports and factory installs it.

Is it possible to cleanly remove carrier iq? And, hypothetically, if such a task required root, would be it reversible if I had to replace my phone under warranty? I know the Verizon G2 shows rooted status in system status, not sure if the at&t version does too.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geekybiker:
Looks like the carrier IQ issue on the ATT version. Use system tuner to disable the carrier IQ processes. (7 of them. Look up the carrier IQ thread for details)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osiris010:
I'll check that out then. I did a factory rest last night because I was so fed up with GPS turning on (it got worse, much worse) and it seemed to help but I noticed GPS turned on itself twice today.

Do I need root in able to do this?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NevetsDrassel:
Yes you must root to use the System Tuner to disable the Carrier IQ.

Another option is to go to settings:general:apps:running:android system: and force stop Carrier IQ and then force stop the android system that Carrier IQ resided in. You will have to do this every time you restart you phone. However, there is no guarantee that Carrier IQ is totally stopped but all indications are that it is.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OkcThunder:
