Nice Article.

I'm loving my Moto X 'Argentina Edition' (no root yet :@ ).

On the 'Cons 4' section I swipe a lot, and never again hold my phoine with 2 hands :D

While driving I can text with the mic, not sure on portuguese, but spanish works great!

OK Google Now

is so much more sensitive in 4.4. I'm using the nexus 5 gel and my phone is constantly beeping and googling my last few words. Kinda strange
[Moto X General] spicydicy:
I'm still on 4.2.2 but I would have to say the camera, the smaller screen size, and the color saturation of the screen.

I bought a nexus 5 earlier this month and switch between the two phones all the time. {Google apps sync everything} and those would be my main complaints. Obviously the screen size is completely subjective, but I much prefer the n5 screen. I do like the battery life, but I usually have a charger at work and at home, and both phones seem to give me more than acceptable battery life.

The biggest complaint I have is the lack of accessories, cases and screen protectors for it.

I also would like our Canadian carriers to hurry up with the 4.4 updates.

Any one else having issues with Moto credit giving you the amount to cover the phone cost, but can't process the payment because of the $35 tax?

I've called around and they don't allow me to pay the difference. Its either I pay it in total or the credit from Moto must cover it. I've had them escalate the issue to be able to pay the difference. But I'm wondering if anyone else has gone the the process of buying off contract with the Moto credit.

okay, so when I try to cast a tab and play a local video file.. the video freezes on the TV, but continues to play on my computer.. the sound also still comes through the TV while its frozen. Why is this? And is there anyway to cast a local file from your phone?
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
What kind of local file (container format, compression type and bitrate) is it? It sounds like maybe the local file has a "glitch" in it or the file is using variable bitrate compression and the video bitrate exceeds what Chromecast can handle at the point it freezes.

Local file casting currently requires a rooted Chromecast, KyoCast installed on the Chromecast, and an un-timebombed AllCast/AirCast installed on your phone... The phone-local file needs to be a format Chromecast can play, and must be played in an app that allows Share to the AllCast/AirCast app.
[Google Chromecast] new_world_2006:
Me too the issue happened on my chromecast even on youtube ... other pc work with me but one pc is showing this behaviour
[Google Chromecast] klbjr:
So do you think this would work or help cast the Showbox app?
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
That can happen if the transcoding performance of your computer is not sufficient for tab casting. I get that symptom if I attempt tab casting from my 2 GHz dual-core laptop, but not from my 4 GHz quad-core desktop. Google's beta tab-casting code just isn't very efficient.
[Google Chromecast] bewpy:
I have an i5.. with 8 gigs of ram..
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
It'll still depend mainly on how CPU-intensive the decoding of the video you're watching is. Whatever its left over needs to be enough to compress to whatever Chromecast needs.
[Google Chromecast] DJames1:
It's more than that though. My system runs at only 12-18% CPU utilization while tab casting (depending on resolution), but the video is still a bit jerky, noticeably dropping frames about once a second. Dropping the resolution to 480p doesn't affect that at all. When I play the exact same internet stream via Plex running on the same computer and casting it to a Plex client, the video is perfectly smooth. The only explanation I can see for the poor performance along with low average CPU utilization is that Google isn't using enough buffering, and every time it gets overwhelmed by a momentary peak in transcoding, it stumbles and drops some frames. You can easily see and hear that the lag between the stream on the computer and the stream coming out of the Chromecast is only a fraction of a second, so that would support the insufficient-buffering theory.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
The flip side to the coin would be that the Cast extension isn't using enough compression. More buffering would create additional lag between what's on the computer and out from the Chroemcast. There's already a fair lag.

More compression would mean higher CPU requirements but lower network bandwidth

More buffering would mean more lag

Being that the Cast extension is still in beta, I'm hoping Google either lets us adjust these settings (the previously-discovered hidden settings would be reasonable) or they are trying to determine the best compromise given the target market. The parameters are narrow enough that a Q&A optimizer would probably work.

My video is lagging: decrease buffering & use looser compression

My video is pausing, skipping or jumping: increase buffering

My video is still pausing, skipping or jumping: decrease compression
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Actually I have been able to stream local content from my Plex Server using the Chrome Browser Tab Cast feature...

Open Plex Media Manager in the browser, Cast the tab to the Chromecast, Play the video, make it full screen and all is good.

Perhaps because the Plex Server does transcoding and his local file does not.

Most of my files are H264 MP4 files and AVI and other containers won't work like you said.
[Google Chromecast] bhiga:
Actually it's two-fold in your case.

Plex Server is making sure Chrome can play it (ensures it's browser-friendly)

and

because you're tab-casting, the source doesn't really matter because the Cast extension is recompressing what appears on the screen to a Chromecast-compatible format. The Cast extension doesn't care whether it's video or PowerPoint or an animated GIF - at the point the Cast extension sees it, it's just a series of images for it to compress and send to Chromecast
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Ahhh IC...SO the fact that it is playing well has more to do with the file being compatible with the browser...Got it!

Newer build than the leak indeed. But eh, I'll wait and hope for a FXZ to the retail build. With my luck, I'd probably wipe the phone or brick it trying to go back to 4.2.2.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xSalamanderman:
The title pretty much explains it.

My N4 died on me today after running an Antutu Benchmark. I was running on Android 4.4 with the latest Fauxkernel (v29).

I can't boot it up anymore without the charging cable plugged in. When the charging cable is plugged in, the LED flashes red once, the display turns on and shows me the battery charging indicator and turns off just a couple seconds later also with the LED flashing red once. If I attempt to turn it on, the Google sign appears but the phone turns off immediately after that and once again, say Hi! to the red LED.

Pretty much tried everything so far, charging my battery, getting into the recovery menu, pushing down the power+VOL Up buttons for 60 seconds, etc. Nothing helped.

Maybe you guys know any way to fix it? I don't wanna open my device nor replace the battery if possible.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
2 ways to fix it. first, leave your phone on the charger for 3-4 hours. thwn try to boot it into the bootloader and press turn off the phone. let it charge further. if that doesnt work, remove the back cover, remove the battery, then clip the battery back in. the second method works 100%.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xSalamanderman:
I can get into the bootloader but once I select power off, the phone just turns on again and shows me the battery charging indicator. Not sure if it's supposed to be like that but the indicator is completely filled so that would probably mean the battery is full.

Not sure if I have the right screwdrivers to open the back.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
the reason for rlod is that the phone thinks that it is under 0% battery. leave it on the indicator that is filled, thats a good start. when that filled indicator starts the reguler behavior that it looks like its filling(up and down), thats when your phone will be fixed. leave it charging for a few hours.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xSalamanderman:
Alright, I'll try that out. It's kinda annoying though that the display turns on every few seconds and turns off again but if it's going to work later that'll be worth it. Thanks alot!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
if worst comes to worst, remove the battery and plug the battery back in. this will "reset" the battery(like a normal battery pull for devices with a removable battery).

Does anyone know if it's possible to modify my non-wireless charging OEM S-View case to work with a Qi receiver? The case and the receiver use the same pins (top 2) next to the battery and I can't have both work at the same time.

I was wondering if I were to expose the pins on the back portion of the receiver and then install the S-View cover on top would work. Kinda like a sandwich..

Any thoughts? Or am I better off selling this and then purchasing the (to be released shortly) OEM S-View cover with wireless charging?
