[Moto X Q&A] ZionExpress:
Hey gang, I've got a bit of a conundrum here.

I'm the lucky owner of a Nexus 5 and it's a terrific phone. Problem is, my first love was the Moto X. I went with the N5 because it was cheaper off-contract as I currently have NET10. I'm still a little bummed that I didn't get the Moto X and I'm sure it'd be easy to trade the N5 for one but first I'd really like to try one out. Are there any good carriers out there that I can pick up a Moto X from and test drive it for a bit and then return it without taking too much of a financial hit? Carrier doesn't really matter, I want to test out the phone itself, not the service.

Ideally, the phone would be perfect for me and I would be able to trade someone's upgrade for a brand new Moto X from motomaker. Know of any reputable places where people trade phone upgrades?

Thanks all!
[Moto X Q&A] ZionExpress:
Whoops! Just realized this should go in Q&A. Please ignore!
[Moto X Q&A] RobertsDF:
Republic wireless just started selling the moto x for 299 with no contract and a 30 day money back guarantee . if you return it within that time, all you pay is the $10 shipping
[Moto X Q&A] NYRican:
trust me go to ebay look up Gazelle store they got good condition moto x going for $340 and obviously off contract. 30 day returns and even free return shipping. I was stuck in the same situation as you choosing between these two. Problem is still haven't decided.

if it can be useful, I removed the heatsink and the chip of the device is the ROCKCHIP RK3188-T ...

is a particular version of the chip?

I read somewhere that the T stands for TURBO ... is it possible?

I have to look for particular ROM?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:
I am in an area where there is the eCFSB gap problem. For those not aware this is basically where my area has lte but triband devices can't get it. So yesterday I was surprised that I was finally connected to lte. I thought it was finally fixed. Now my problem is I can connect to lte but I can't make phone calls. What happens is I'll try and make a call the lte will disappear like it's supposed to and it will say call sent. Then it will immediately say call failed and lte will reappear. If I turn lte off and back to 3g then phone calls work. I can receive calls just fine on lte I just can't make them. Anyone else with this problem? Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuMMoD:
Could you provide more detail? Service provider, kernel, Rom, if your SIM card is an LTE one or from an older phone that didn't support lte.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] musclehead84:
Yeah I'm sorry I'm so used to just having a sprint only section. I'm on sprint. I got the phone from sprint so it already had the sim in it. Stock rom/kernel rooted.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Satish Chandra:
I have the same issue, but only in some areas. I do not get any incoming calls when I am in LTE area, if I change it 3G i get the calls.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FuMMoD:
You are not alone. I'm on MetroPCS gsm which is basicly T-Mobile. Anyways, I forced my phone to stay on LTE only and I was not able to make or receive any calls whatsoever. Make sure your phone is on automatic mode and not force LTE on becuase that was the only way i was able to get the issue to occur was through force lte on. There's a few threads regarding this issue that might be a good read especially for sprint.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] atwood:
HI all,

originally, i was trying to install CM10.2 on system 2 through BMM. However, i realize it doesnt work at all and hence decide to delete it by the option "mount and format" and format everything in that system (i know this is stupid now). However, when i finished, i realize that i was actually still remain in system 1 and all my data is deleted ( i see nothing left by connecting to my PC through USB, however, i can still backup my CID and kernel). Is my XT910 doomed? Is there nothing i can do anymore? My BMM is still here but it say it wont start up again in next reboot. My phone call still be charged now.

Anyone? help?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] atwood:
problem solved. simply install CM10 on my system1 and save my phone. Thank you for your attention
[Nexus 7 General] joshag:
I love my original Nexus 7.. but it's finally starting to fall apart. I'm a super power user and take the thing everywhere and it's just beat to hell. :)

So here's the question.. upgrade to a new Nexus or buy another original nexus?

Lots of complaints on the new one out there.. rattle in the camera, bad touchscreen issues, more..

If you own both.. that's the comments I'd really like to hear. What do you think of one vs the other?
[Nexus 7 General] kareemgonna:
Facing the same dilemma, I have an opportunity to sell my N7 and get the 2nd generation.
[Nexus 7 General] xateeq:
Ill say wait for nexus 7 2014 edition. 2012 can handle any thing u can throw at it so why waste money. U waited this long. You sure can wait little longer too.
[Nexus 7 General] sb101:
I'm in the same boat - my original Nexus 7 was replaced after a month or so because of a screen fault. The replacement then suffered horrendous battery drain (~70% overnight when off!) after an Android update, so it also went back to Google. I replaced it with the 2013 model, which clearly had touch screen issues straight out of the box and random freezes, so back it went too, this time to Amazon who I bought it from - I'll never again buy anything from Google!.

In the month since it went back I've been considering what to do, and in all honesty I'm looking at avoiding Nexus 7's altogether, because of the problems and also because Google's customer service is simply the absolute worst I've ever encountered.

I have a large Amazon gift certificate balance which would cover the cost of the 2013 Nexus 7, but if I *was* to buy another Nexus 7 I think I'd go for the 2012 model and hope that the KitKat upgrade didn't cause any battery issues. Also by buying from Amazon there'll be no hassle if (when?) things go wrong.

[Nexus 7 General] joshag:
If I didn't need to replace my 1st Gen I would be fine.. but I do have to replace it. I just don't know which way to go..
[Nexus 7 General] joshag:
I didn't have any issue with my google tablet. I bought my first one off of someone who had used it for about 6 months and I've used it every day at work and at home. Rooted, modded and ran like a champ. I put so many miles on it that it's starting to fall apart around itself. But I've loved everything about it. For the price I haven't used anything that even comes close. (IMO)

On paper the 2013 is closer to what I'm looking for.. but man are there are lot of complaints about it online.. definitely has me a bit nervous.
[Nexus 7 General] sb101:
Well I suppose the safest thing would be to buy the 2013 model from Amazon, and if you have problems just return it for a refund. Any touch screen problems will show up before 30 days - mine showed up during the initial set-up process!
[Nexus 7 General] xateeq:
If you have to then nexus 7 2013 is your best bang for the buck.
[Nexus 7 General] sb101:
But it's also the most hassle...
[Nexus 7 General] xateeq:
how ?
[Nexus 7 General] gc84245:
Just buy the new one from a store and if you have problems return it within the return period.
[Nexus 7 General] sb101:
Because of the touch screen issues (touches not registering or registering in a different place, phantom touches etc.) and frequent freezes. Google them.
[Nexus 7 General] xateeq:
I am sure the issues are not that wide spread, if you look closely at any electronic device the first batch is always not 100%. pick any device ull find problems. its like after software now devices are also in beta state :P so buy nexus 7 2013 and check if u find problem then replace and if the problem still exist then replace with some alternative. Remember the power u want is only available with nexus devices :D or els u cn always check galaxy tab and that will cost u more :) so basically wither u get the latest update with fairly powerful device with low price point or slow updates super power and less issues. choice is yours.
[Nexus 7 General] sb101:
What an odd outlook. I've already had the Nexus 2013 which as I said was faulty straight out of the box. I am not alone in this as there are indeed *many* people having problems with it, and I won't be buying another as I'm not paying to be a beta tester.

You should check yours as you seem to be missing many letters ;)
[Nexus 7 General] xateeq:
lol i am using 2012 version and yeah i am bad at typing and yes i am worse when it comes to touch screen keyboards :( but since you asked question in 2012 version nexus 7 thread u should expect a 2012 fan :P
[Nexus 7 General] sb101:
I'm not keen on touch keyboards either, which is a slight problem with a tablet! Lol!

Are you using KitKat on your 2012 N7? I'm still tempted to buy another if KK's working ok on it. I read some reports that it broke 3G and disabled SMS apps in favour of Google's own (can't remember what it's called), but as I'd go for the WiFi only model these problems wouldn't matter to be. And besides, they're quite cheap now.
[Nexus 7 General] xateeq:
Yeah i am using 2012 WiFi version and yes i have kitkat and for me it is just butter smoothness with sweet speed. i am mostly on stock unlocked bootloader rooted and few mods (nothing especial just minor stuff that mattered to me).
[Nexus 7 General] danny89y:
I'll say wait next tablet
[Nexus 7 General] General Tso:
I just replaced my 12 N7 with a new 13 N7. Bought from Amazon. No issues yet. Used about a week so far. Much quicker/smoother than the 12 model IMO. For the money, its tough to beat.
[Nexus 7 General] Selmervi:
How do you tell which version you have?
[Nexus 7 General] AidenM:
2013 has a camera in the back is the most obvious difference.

Do not mistake this whole 2012/13 thing for a "batch" idea, they are literally two different tablets - like the iPad 4 and the iPad Air.

If you've flashed any ROMs from this subforum you have a 2012 model or are damn lucky.
[Nexus 7 General] Selmervi:
No camera in back on mine. I'm new to this forum. Started reading it daily after following Nexus 5 shipping forum. I now have 7 and 5. Thinking of rooting the 7 to see how it goes.
[Nexus 7 General] rigga:
My first Gen nexus7 died last week, had this very same dilemma, stick with what I knew worked well, or go for the 2013 version, well I didn't gamble, got a new 2012 Model for £119 from carphone warehouse, shifting new old stock on, worked well enough before and for that price suits my needs just fine.
[Nexus 7 General] kschumake83:
My wife dropped her nook color and her kindle fire HD in the tub last week, so I decided to replace them with the nexus 7 2013 as I love my 2012. No touchscreen issues and the thing is 10 times faster than the 12. It is 1/4 inch narrower and 1/4 inch taller than my 12, so it feels better holding it in one hand. If I had to replace mine I would definitely get the 2nd gen, I'm sure they have sold millions of them but you only hear from the vocal 100 or so that have had issues, so I figured you can hear from one of the people who have had good experiences with both the 12 and the 13.
[Nexus 7 General] sparksd:
I went from a '12 to a '13 over a month ago and have not had any problems. The main reason I upgraded was to go from 16GB on my '12 to 32GB on the new unit. But I have found it to be more responsive (even more so now using ART under KitKat), the screen is better - higher resolution and better color rendering, and I like the form factor better with the '13. I really debated with myself about updating but now I am very happy that I did, absolutely no regrets.
[Nexus 7 General] 95Z28:
Nexus devices in general have notorious reputations for being problematic. I think part of that is simply due to the fact that more techie people go for them and they're quicker to point out "issues" the average consumer wouldn't notice. While I understand there are some devices with legitimate problems, that's every device not just nexus.

My galaxy nexus was a great phone, but reading around there were all kinds of complaints. My nexus 7 (2012) is still a great tablet, kitkat update works perfect and hasn't affected anything negatively. My nexus 5 isn't perfect, (minor power button rattle) but the performance has impressed me enough to make me happy.

At the end of the day I won't buy another non-nexus android device unless the nexus line was discontinued. And when it's time to replace something I'll go for the newest most powerful nexus device.

Hi All,

This weekend I just drop my phone with a case on. Lucky there are no damages but my power button is not working. I'm using a Slim 4.3 rom and would like for someone to test a power on trick for me. I saw this on YouTube for a TW base system and was wondering if it'll work on my phone.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gre9qaJyCZw

To power on, Take your charger and plug it in your phone. When the on screen indicator shows that it charging (when the indicator is moving) quickly take out your charger and immediately take out your battery, then put it back in again and phone will boot up.

Can someone with a Slim or ASOP rom please try an confirm this out for me. I'm afraid to turn off my phone due to this issue.

Many Thanks,

Jay
