[Moto X Q&A] Quikster:
yeah everyone seems to love the active notifications and touchless control. I'm also not sure how much the extra cores will even matter on the Nexus 5. Most pc applications still aren't properly written to take full advantage of my 4 core computer processors.
[Moto X Q&A] Konno_Yuuki:
I decided on the Moto X with the Nexus 5 being a close runner up. My decision was based primary on the Active Notifications, MotoMaker, and (currently) fast updates. Motorola, being owned by Google, should be getting update for some time, but I make no promises.
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
If you want to be able to use your device and have your battery last throughout the day, Moto X. If you want vanilla AOSP without the Moto additions (not sure why you would), buy a developer edition.
[Moto X Q&A] Neogx:
damn and now Motorola has been bought out . Hmm Are you still going to buy the motox Quikster?
[Moto X Q&A] overthatscreen:
Well I was in the same boat as you. I went for the Moto X because I wanted a phone that, like the iPhone, seems to have been developed around the custom cpu. The only other phone I have ever had that I miss was the Galaxy S2 with the Exynos cpu. So from my view, building a phone around a custom cpu setup should provide better overall experience. That's what I saw when I played with the demo units. I hate seeing lag on my Galaxy S4, especially since it's it's a Snapdragon 600. Plus plain Android just seems better. Forget the fancy overlays.
[Moto X Q&A] Product F(RED):
I don't even own a Moto X (Galaxy S4), but I'm going to straight up tell you to buy the Moto X. Why?

- Active Notifications (actually useful; I use an app on my Galaxy S4 that is basically a clone)

- MotoMaker/Developer Edition (one or the other, not both)

- Neither have a removable battery or expandable storage, but I know from a lot of people and reviews that the Moto X FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR outlasts the Nexus 5. Yes, the Nexus 5 has the better specs on paper, but the Moto X is far more efficient and performs much better in day to day tasks than top tier devices (Galaxy S4, Note 3, etc).

- Quick updates; the Moto X got Android 4.4 right after the Nexus 5 and

before the Nexus 4.
[Moto X Q&A] Quikster:
This wont' affect me one way or the other. I don't see anything really changing near term, and they've actually grown the laptop business they bought from IBM several years back, and they just bought the low end server business from IBM as well.
[Moto X Q&A] Neogx:
imma try out motox and see how it is i cant just write it off since im really curious how it works and runs. If its not for me ill just return it and just go for the nexus 5 =]
[Moto X Q&A] mickliq:
I've had both. Returned the N5 straight away. Bad feel in the had, terrible battery (with my usage pattern). Have been rocking an S4 since it came out, last few months with Google Play Edition. Recently got a Moto X and would definitely recommend it all day long over the N5. Feels so great in hand and battery is indeed excellent. It's a tradeoff in terms of screen resolution/size (doesn't make much difference, honestly) but for me I appreciate the in the hand feel.
[Moto X Q&A] tagumcity:
I have the N5 & Moto X dev and for a daily driver I choose the Moto X, because of the size, shape, battery life, & the OS "tuned" to multi processors. Yes the N5 has some better specs, & for certain users it's a preference. That said, the Moto X will serve quite well for a few years, at least. So within the next 2 years the convergence of the desktop & phone will be underway & a worthy upgrade to the Moto X will be available. If your not going directly into hacking (N5 if so), then the Moto X is very good choice.
[Moto X Q&A] Product F(RED):
I think rooting is fun and all but most people do it to fix issues with their device. The Moto X doesn't have any (or few, negligible) issues. It's vanilla Android with useful additions. It's a clean slate.
[Moto X Q&A] Quikster:
yeah the reason i've done it in the past is to remove bloatware and add functionality like tethering.
[Moto X Q&A] eksasol:
I think choosing between the N5 and Moto X is a very tough choice. I had the N4 and I love the freedom, MultiRom is a killer feature and it's very hard to let that go.

I chose the Moto X for its advertised features, the battery life, it's size (since I don't like big phones). I love AMOLED screen for the contrast, deep black and lack of backlight leakage, this is one of the best AMOLED screen I've seen in term of colors calibration, it's not extremely saturated like others. Also my impression is the Moto X is somewhat better built, the fact that it have nano coating to provide some water resistance is nice. I'm now also pleasantly surprised it have a great sounding speaker despite in the rear, it's the best sounding rear speaker from a phone I've heard.

I will eventually root my Moto X when I'm certain there are no issues that required use of warranty, but I love the touchless control and active display so I won't be going to custom rom without those features, unless there are some work around (I do use AutoVoice with Tasker). It's just that with other phones they don't have the optimized CPU or they lack AMOLED screen, so even with those third part alternatives I imagined they use up more battery. Despite my Nexus 4 having a quad core, for most tasks they aren't used (unless you install a custom kernel and tweak them). With the Moto X all the cores are better optimized and I'm guessing the language recognition and contextual cores help ease the work load when possible, so really it is more than a dualcore though I wouldn't call it "quadcore". In the end the benchmark score simply beat my Nexus 4 score, which had to be overclocked to match.

There are two things that disappointed me about the Moto X, lacks of qi charging and the headphone jack is CTIA format (I think), which means I need to use an adapter to use some headsets, this is true with some Sony phones, it bother the heck out of me. And also the lack of MultiRom, I really hope it will come to the Moto X one day though.

I think it's a really tough call, the Nexus 5 is a better device if you don't use the Moto X features and want to use custom roms or kernels. With the introduction of KitKat I mostly used stock on my Nexus with ART enabled, custom kernels is still something I desire though.

They haven't been bought out and the deal is being finalized, the us govt could step in to prevent it. I don't think I will worry too much about it, I'm just a little skeptical if the Moto X will continue to get updates and fast. Lenovo knows what they're doing, they did okay with Thinkpad and they aren't going to waste $3 billion on a brand just to ruin it. If I had a Moto G I wouldn't be worried at all since it have tons of kernels and roms.

[Moto X Q&A] Product F(RED):
The language core and contextual core are for doing operations while the phone is sleeping. For example on my Galaxy S4, an "always-listening" feature would significantly impact my battery (and a lot of apps with that option will tell you this), but not with the X's low-power cores. The Snapdragon 800 also has that low-power listening core, but not lower-end CPUs (e.g. Snapdragon 600).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maddyn73:
I recently bought a 2012 model Nexus 7 from an online store. Now I see some sort of issues with the display.

The display looks perfectly fine during normal operation. But during some instances like when I switch from one profile to another, I can see some white dots on screen mostly on the upper edges and sometimes in the middle of the screen. The dots disappear as soon as the transition is over and then its back to normal and no sort of issues then. This also happens sometimes when I rotate the device to landscape mode.

I could see this issue during only these 2 operations. Otherwise the display behaves just fine even when I am navigating through the app drawer.

Is this a normal thing?

The girlfriends moto g seems to lose anywhere between 10 & 20% overnight which is really annoying. Does anybody else have the same problem or any ideas how we can stop this from happening?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoneofgod:
Yea, I do too. It happens when I'm on 2G network, on 3G it's fine. People also say it happens to them after using Location/GPS.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unlinker:
If you are on Kitkat, go to location services and set it to "Device only", reboot after. It fixed the drain for me.

If you are on JB, update every Google-related app (Search, Maps, etc.).
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ar_15:
Last week my Moto G used to do < 0,7%/hour at night, now, after my phone did the "mysterious" drain from 50% to 0%, it's doing > 1,5%/hour at night.

What the hell happened?

The only thing I did was update a few apps (Motorola Camera/Gallery was the only system app) and change from 2G to 3G.

edit:

The weird thing is that during the day with Wifi On with my phone was at 1%/hour, during the night (this means, no use at all, including Wifi OFF) the phone jumped to 1,6%/hour.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crewster:

I don't know what you expect it to do. If I switch flight mode on and push the power button then I think that it is switched off. The only other way to completely shut it off, is by removing the battery.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
I'm looking at portable speakers. There are so many out there and the prices vary as much as the options.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] uberbdon:
I picked up one of these a few days ago at Best Buy after a coworker did and I was impressed with the sound it put out. I just use mine for when I'm in the shower, but it's plenty loud if you wanted to use it outside. I went in and they pricematched the Amazon price so I saved $20. It's a bluetooth speaker, so the sound quality isn't going to reach audiophile levels, but it does its job well.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] compro01:
I personally own one of these units.

The sound is good and it shrugs off water and drops.

Not a cheap device though.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] greenbay:
I ended up getting this Anker Portable Speaker after some great reviews on Amazon. I've had a couple generic no names that broke or blew out quickly.

http://www.ianker.com/product/99ANSP9901-BSA

The MP141 is very nice looking and super easy to pair. The speaker is very heavy-indicating a large magnet, and has a nice matte rubber exterior. There is a micro USB charge port, aux stereo jack and a charge light indicater. Apart from thevolume switch, the buttons operate the speaker. Volume up/ down and a play/pause. All the parts appear to be of the highest quality. Most importantly, the sound is very rich. I use it in my office which is about 12 X 12. I can walk out about 15-20 without losing connection. What's more impressive is I can still hear it well out side. Unfortunately the unit does distort at the highest volume- but most speakers do. The company boasts 20hrs. I have used mine for over 25 and is still going!

The speaker also has a microphone to answer incoming calls. The mic. quality is good and almost none of callers could recognize I was using the speaker. There is also a sound that indicates a successful connection or incoming call. One drawback is that for some reason, this notification sound is always super loud-regardless of the volume seting on the speaker. It can be startling if you have the speaker volume low. Overall I am very pleased with this product and feel comfortable recommending it to anyone looking for a high quality speaker without the high end price.

You're the man. I've been looking for a Note 3 HFA loop fix. Figured since the carrier partition got corrupted on the Sprint Note 2 phones that it'd be doing the same on the Note 3.

Is there any chance of posting a zip with the carrier partition/folder? Or is there sensitive information in there?

Sent from my SPH-L900. Please hit the thanks button if I helped you out!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AlpineMan:
I believe there are a couple or so sensitive info in the properties.db when I took a look at it using SQL Lite. I'll see if I can change the values a bit to make it more generic. I'm thinking though that the .chameleon.hash is an MD5 hash of the entire contents of /carrier. If a file is changed manually, the hash won't match and it won't work. In fact to see if this is the case, I put a different .chameleon.hash yesterday just to play around with it. After I rebooted the phone, MDN, MIN, and Profile 1 got wiped out and I had to reflash the phone again. The /carrier folder also got reverted back as if you did a ##786# on the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AlpineMan:
I just attached carrier.zip in the first post. Enjoy.

Unzip contents of zip file in /carrier so that the files/folders would look like the attached screen shots in the first post.

Please give it a try and let me know if it works for you.

Thanks.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] davidl1986:
Thanks so much for uploading the carrier zip. You saved my phone! It mostly worked, in that after ##72786# and then entering my mdn and msid I was able to finally get my s4 on boost to update my prl and profile. However, it is still trying to do the hfa and has not completed that. And every time I reboot it tries to activate. Also, I now have data back, but only 1x. When I was on the phone with Boost last night they said there might be some problems in my area, so all of the remaining issues might be due to that. I will post an update if/when something changes.

In any case, thank you so much for saving my phone!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] E-POUND:
Genius pure genius!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AlpineMan:
You must do assumptions #5 thru #7 before applying the fix. I ran into HFA if I didn't do those steps. Manually entering MDN and MIN via ##phone's MSL# didn't work for me. Had to flash it. Same with Profile 0 and 1. Used DFS.

BTW, Update Profile works via WiFi I believe. So connect your phone to WiFi to test. This way you're not dependent on the strength of Sprint signal wherever you are.

For those who got it working,which phone(s) did you get it to work? I'd like to take a survey so I can update the original post.

You can zip your original /carrier folder for backup purposes. Not sure why your /carrier folder you copied in SD card would get wiped out. I put mine in a sub folder in external SD card (not internal SD card) ... something like /ROM/carrier.
