I'm not sure what you are talking about. Their site is not always down and it works just fine. At least 5 verified now in two days and you don't have to worry about bricking your phone with the wire trick.

I have to say that the update did improve the performance of the device but I have two problems.

When I turn on the screen I see one ripple effect on the lock screen like if I touched it in the middle bottom half part screen.

Did some one has this bug?

About the second bug I'm still not sure 100%, It's battery life.

The battery holds much longer in sleep mode (screen turned off) but while in use it drains more battery. I know that its suppose to be like this but in my case it changed since I upgraded. (I hope u'll understand what I mean).

[Moto X Q&A] markwebb:
Hello all.

Ok, I have read all the posts/threads for rooting and am still confused as each thread links to another which links to another, which changes another ,etc. Need proper organization of threads it looks like.

Anyway, I just received the GSM Unlocked MOTO X (NOT DEV ED.) for TMO or ATT.

How do I root? Again, I have read the threads and am terribly confused. I have the 4.2.2 software and have NOT updated to any OTA.

Can someone clearly highlight the steps I should be taking?

Am not a noob and currently own N5 and S4 Dev Edition.

Thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] buschris:
ditto

I am also confused, do I download the pwnmymoto for the att or tmobile version? Just got my moto x today.
[Moto X Q&A] TKTAB911:
RockMyMoto

then, MotoWpNoMo to keep root as w/o you have a "temp" root, or tethered, if that is the correct term. AKA, reboots/shutdowns can trip it back to stock w/o root.
[Moto X Q&A] buschris:
so are these phones the x1053 or x1058?
[Moto X Q&A] markwebb:
X1053
[Moto X Q&A] markwebb:
Thanks... then can I take the ota to kit Kat 4.4 or will I lose root? I did unlock bootloader BTW. :)
[Moto X Q&A] buschris:
I am thinking of unlocking mine as well, and I am on 4.4 already, just got the phone today.

Not sure if I should unlock, it will be my daughters phone and I'll probably need the warranty
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
Since you've unlocked the bootloader, follow the root directions for the dev edition. What you're doing is wholly unnecessary.

Unlock bootloader, download latest CWMR or TWRP and SuperSu, then fastboot (or mfastboot) flash recovery, boot into recovery, adb push supersu.zip /sdcard, flash in recovery. Done.

I'd start with root without unlocking.
[Moto X Q&A] markwebb:
Thanks..that is what I was looking for. So, should I update to OTA first since I am unlocked, or root now per dev edition instruction? If so, then how would I take the OTA if I am on custom recovery? Is there a zip of the OTA?

Thanks again!
[Moto X Q&A] Dark9781:
You should take the 4.4 OTA first. In order to take the OTA you need to have stock recovery. Once you take the OTA then you can flash a customer recovery and flash a super user app through it.

Sent from my Moto X on KitKat
[Moto X Q&A] markwebb:
From current experiences with other devices, that is exactly what I did. I am now updated to 4.4, with custom recovery and root!

Thanks guys...shame this isn't in an updated simple "how to" thread :)
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
It isn't difficult at all. People seem to be easily confused and make things more complicated than necessary.
[Moto X Q&A] Khaiyan:
Rooting with an unlocked bootloader is perhaps the easiest thing to do. You know this from past experience so why would it be any different with the Moto X?

The real challenge is when you want to root with a locked bootloader (and even that is becoming gradually easier).
[Moto X Q&A] markwebb:
Correct.

But i began the process with a locked bootloader and getting to the answer/correct path was a challenge in these threads compared to other threads.

So I took the plunge and unlocked.
[General Questions and Answers] GuestK00250:
hi. how to view all my download history in the web version of google play? I'm not talking bout "my apps" section, im referring to a list where it shows all the apps paid and free i download since day 1, i remember seeing this about last month or so, i click "my orders" but its empty. :confused:
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Neo3D:
How much free space do you have on your Note 3 & is it reporting wrong storage sizes?

I just noticed that my Note 3 has only 7gb of storage left?

I noticed two problems.

The Note 3 is reporting the storage of the pictures incorrectly. I have the stock camera app set to save pictures on my 64gb Sandisk Class 10 Micro SD card. However, the phone is showing that pictures & videos are using 3.71gb? I do have WhatsApp and Instagram installed, so maybe that's why? I'm not too worried about this.

The Note 3 is reporting the storage of the Miscellaneous files incorrectly. It says those files are using 12.28gb but when I go in there and look, I can see that all of the files are using less than 5.6gb? (after adding the reported sizes all up)

Issue #2 is what worries me! The phone says the Miscellaneous files are using over 2x as much storage as they really are using! Is anyone else's phone doing this?

Please check your Miscellaneous files storage and see if it's reporting it accurately. Mine definitely is not and I don't know why?? :(
[Galaxy Note 3 General] xclub_101:
What firmware do you have?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sohebq:
I had this issue on note 2 as well, attach phone to pc and browse every folder, there will be 1 folder using more space than actual items in it, that folder will have some strange file, most probably thumbnails or some other file, del that.

Sent from Note 3 (The beauty & beast)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ShadowLea:
The Thumbnail files are generally quite massive (several GB).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] The.Opethian:
Maybe stating the obvious here, but fake memory cards tend to do this. Hope that's not the case here.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] djnoicatse:
The cached thumbnails of videos and pictures take up a lot of space especially if you have tons of them.

I would download a file manager and check individual folders to see exactly what's taking up space. Ex. cached instagram videos/photos (that's if you use instagram) take up tons of memory as well.

Not sure if it'll help but it's a start

Edit: You can always download sdmaid to clean your phone.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] ShadowLea:
It appears to be displayed differently for you, but this will explain that:

It's the reserved space for Android. The ammount varies per version.

And this is the culprit of the anomalous space usage:

I think the miscellaneous files is app data that had been added post install. When I clicked on it WhatsApp had 64mb of data which matched the memory used for the pictures held in the WhatsApp folder. Not sure if this is 100% correct but that's how it seems.

hello everyone

i received my snapdragon note 3 yesterday, was playing with it till i found something, its hard to explain but i will do my best.

what i noticed is that when i move something blue (like the small bars between each alphabet in contacts) to a black space (where pixels are shut off), the blue bar turns purple for like quarter of a second and then goes back to its original color.

it is really bothering me, i waited like a month to get the snapdragon version from outside my country and now this is happening.

could it be software issue? as i remember that note 1 has a display issue where black color appear grayish in homescreen, if so, what are the best stock roms that support RDLV root with out tripping knox ? last thing to note is that it is really hard for me to return it to where it came from.

any help appreciated.

edit: it apear that it is happening with the gray color or any other one that tend to be grayish at very low brightness
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
This is something you'll either have to get used to and learn to live with, or sell the device. It's a HARDWARE issue, not software, and it can never be "fixed" in any way. The short explanation:

What you are seeing is the latency inherent to the design of the AMOLED pixel matrix. It takes some time for the pixels to go from black (off) to any other color (on) and what you perceive as a blur or "small bars" before it does so is this latency, and when you are driving so many pixels on a full-HD display, the latency is even more apparent.

Samsung has attempted to mask this design limitation by essentially taking true black (off) away from the user, but it only works for Samsung apps and the parts of the OS that are tied to the Touchwiz UI.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] starba3:
update:

it appears that this problem is called smearing/ghosting, the reason it happen is that samsung made pixels combletly turn off when it is black in addition to cutting any power going to the screen.

why Samsung did this? well, to fix something called mura effect (black amoled screen can be seen as green or brown in very dark room), this caused a delay in turning on the pixels again which caused this effect (especially with gray color).

the solution is to use an app called screen adjuster (found for free in play store) and using the following setting:

red +14

green +14

blue +14

brightness 100

contrast 0

hope this help anyone who encounter this problem

cheers :D

---------- Post added at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 PM ----------

as i said in the post above, i managed to solve it but adjusting screen colors (a Little bit that it does not affect the overall colors and in the same time keep black pixels on)

by the way, are all note 3 owners facing this issue like what happened to most s4 users or just me?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Just so you know that all you've done to "solve" the problem is shift the colors up to remove black. It's not worth the loss of a true black (off) pixel state, IMO, but to each his own. All Note 3/S4 owners have this issue. Some don't notice it until it's pointed out to them, but it's a hardware/design issue common to every single unit without exception.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s_m_a_s_h:
My wife's google nexus was dropped & then ran over quite badly on the street, screen smashed and won't turn on, except for making a vibrating gesture (I assume power to the vital hardware is still there).

I hooked the phone to the laptop and drivers tried to instal OMAP4440.

After searching online for this, I am to believe this is the black screen of death!

I am in need of pulling all video & photos off the phone, I assume this is do-able as the laptop picks up the OMAP4440 driver instal command even though I currently do not have the driver installed.

Should I instal the OMAP4440 driver, will it give me the ability to gain what I need, or is there an alternative method to get the files?

Serious help & advice needed.

Boot your phone into bootloader mode and read the REALLY TINY text. One line will read "Knox Warranty Void" and either 0x0 (warranty OK) or 0x1 (warranty void).
