[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StefanGA:
Hi Android-Guru's,

I need some help to research a weird issue that is happening for me on almost ANY custom ROM - mostly CyanogenMOD based, but it is consistent as well throughout all current KitKat builds including AOSP and MOKEE.

What happens is, regardless of which network operator I am connected to, the phone in status-bar and settings menu will always show my SIM card operator (Telekom.de). Even when I go to manual network selection menu and the list of operators is retrieved, I get a list of 6 x Telekom.de

Now the argument is correct, that this is cosmetic, it becomes tricky for me when I go abroad - which I do on a daily basis. So selecting the correct foreign network operator is crucial to save on roaming charges e.g. LUXGSM may be cheaper than TANGO, etc. however, I have no way to properly determine that, since the list will simply show 5 entries with "Telekom.de".

I have a XT925 (RAZR HD) and this works perfectly fine on stock. It works also perfectly fine on the early (10.2) CM releases. At some point starting with 4.3 firmware iterations, I started seeing the "wrong" - I researched google for hours and was directed to compare various eri.xml, spn-conf.xml and decompiled the framework-res.apk to see if maybe the methodology for displaying carrier name had changed between working and non-working builds, but couldn't find any difference.

So, since there are probably enough XT925 users out there, what are you seeing? Could this be related to my sim card which is fairly old (4-5years)? Where do I find the code behind carrier display in android?

appreciate your help,

Stefan

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StefanGA:
thanks for the feedback and the suggestion, Dorian - I tried it, but takes me to the regular network selection screen in the settings that just displays the list of "Telekom.de's" :) but good thought.

I wonder, what is different with my setup - might this be a baseband or modem issue?

I realized, that my phone number in status screen shows as "unknown" as well - but IMEI shows correctly, not sure if that is related.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StefanGA:
still looking actively for an answer.. I tried to go back to stock with RSD Lite to see if any of my baseband or modem files is screwed, but I couldn´t get RSD to recognize my phone.. probably an indication that my device has some kind of issue!?

Anyone any ideas?

Hello!

I have got a Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 and in a few days I will have the wiko phone. I have only seen it on pictures in the WWW but the double SIM thing is very important to me and my main use for the phone is listening to music - there and then using google or reading emails.

Can anyone tell me something about the Headphone sound? Is the sound good and - very important, too - LOUD enough?

I read there is a code "*#*#3646633#*#*" and you can go to audio, to another menu and change the value to 160.

It would be very very nice if someone could tell me something about the headphone sound.

Thanks a lot,

[Moto X Q&A] rda990:
Like the title says, is the Verizon Wireless Dev Edition worth the extra $50 for the unlocked bootloader and additional 16gb?

Coming from moto devices with locked bootloaders (Droid 1, 3, Razr Maxx) you would think it would be an easy answer because of the unlocked bootloader the Dev Edition has. Just want to make sure if it's really worth it, as this will most likely be my last Moto device (Thx to Lenovo).
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
Do you want a warranty if you plan to unlock? Do you need the 32gb or is 16 good?

I don't see any other need for discussion ....its what you need. No one here can guess what you need?

But my quick answer ...soley based on the fact that 50 is not a huge amount of cash....yes. I'd get it for sure if I could have. Why not?

Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
[Moto X Q&A] detonation:
Do you want root without having to jump through hoops and ladders, hoping that someone finds an exploit after each OTA? If so then yes, the extra cost (which is just for the extra 16gb) isn't that much in the big picture and is definitely worth the convenience if you are a root/rom user.

Also, I don't think Lenovo is going to ruin Motorola like everyone is thinking they are, but that's for a different topic.
[Moto X Q&A] Coop9:
For me yes. I don't want a device that I cannot unlock the bootloader.
[Moto X Q&A] esmith818:
It's the same price as a non-DE 32 GB Moto X. The real question is, "what's more important for you: a custom-designed phone or an unlockable bootloader?" For me, the decision was easy, I took the DE and bought a diztronic case to cover the white back.
[Moto X Q&A] Mr. Orange 645:
Yes it is.
[Moto X Q&A] rda990:
Keeping the warranty while unlocked would be nice. I currently have a 64gb external + 16gb internal on my Razr Maxx, so I probably will need all the space possible.

I just wanted to hear some opinions of people, if think it's worth it or not and why.

Dev Edition comes rooted???

I really hope Lenovo doesn't, no one really knows. They could keep the Motorola name going for a few years and just get totally rid of it by slapping the name "Lenovo" on future moto hardware. :(

All my phones have been protected with an Otterbox, never have been naked so there wouldn't be a point in getting a custom one.

How good is a diztronic compared to an Otterbox?

Thanks guys for your comments. I'll be ordering a Dev Edition later today, it's going to be hard letting go of my OG Razr Maxx.
[Moto X Q&A] esmith818:
If you're an otter box guy, you'll want to stick with that brand. I have always gone case-less, but just can't stomach the white back on the DE. The diztronic is merely for looks -- I can't imagine it would be of any use if the phone were dropped.
[Moto X Q&A] detonation:
No, but it's about as easy as rooting a Nexus device (unlock the bootloader via Motorola's website, flash a custom recovery, then flash SU). And you get to keep your warranty.

Without the DE, you cannot unlock the bootloader, and to get root you need to downgrade to 4.2.2 and run an exploit which involves executing some scripts via telnut. And once the next OTA comes out, it's likely this method will be patched and you'd need to wait for another exploit to be found.
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
Other Moto x's can have unlocked bootloaders...except a couple. You just void warranty.

Just to be clear. ;)

[Moto X Q&A] Jayrod1980:
If the back is an issue just buy a new back off of eBay. They are pretty easy to get on and off.
[Moto X Q&A] Mr. Orange 645:
I had a Razr MAXX and don't miss it at all. The Moto X is a much better phone. It won't match the battery life of the MAXX, but its worth the trade-off.
[Moto X Q&A] rda990:
Yea I'll just stick to Otterbox then. It's amazing how many times I've dropped my Razr Maxx (honestly over 100) and it's still running strong. My first Otterbox case started to show heavy signs of wear and tear so I got a brand new one from Otterbox thanks to their lifetime warranty :good:

Very easy I see. I thought that with every OTA even on the DE you have to re-root. So on a DE/Unlocked Bootleader SU/Root stays permanently, thanks for clarifying.

I might miss it more since I paid ~$500 for the Limited Edition (Employee Edition) one, so to me it is much more than just a Razr Maxx, dumb I know...How different is battery life between the too? I would think that the X would hang in there with the Droid regardless of battery size since the Maxx is 2 years old.
[Moto X Q&A] Mr. Orange 645:
With the MAXX I could easily get 24+ hours with 5.5-6 hrs screen on time with heavy use. Some people on here have been able to get close to that with their X, but I'm getting closer to 3.5-4 hrs of screen on time.

As always you're mileage may vary.
[Moto X Q&A] detonation:
Well you do have to re-root after an OTA (assuming you haven't made system changes so that you can even take it) just like a Nexus, but it's still simply just reflashing a custom recovery and the SU zip. The bootloader stays unlocked.
[Moto X Q&A] Roland Stone:
For me yes its worth it. Rooting a non-Dev edition, looks like too much monkey business for me to be involved in. And I do like the extra 16gb.
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
Rooting any unlocked x is the same. ;)

Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
If you're going with a case, then the woven white back of the DE vs. customization of the moto maker version is off the table.

That brings it down to how much do you need root? and how easy do you want the root process to be.

Yes, you need to re-root for every OTA. To root in the first place, you flash a custom recovery (like TWRP), then flash/install SuperSU. To get ready for the next OTA, as long as you didn't touch system files, etc, just flash the stock recovery back on, take the OTA. Once its on there, re-root by flashing custom recovery then flash/install SuperSU.

I for one wanted root enough to purchase the Dev X for Verizon in early Nov, just two days before the first price drop. I don't regret it. Its easy to root, easy to put back to take OTA and re-root. And has 32gig (the 16gig version only had 11gig available to me out of the box which was not enough).
[Moto X Q&A] DuvelDroid:
$50 for 16 GB was enough for me. The bootloader that is easier to unlock made the cost even more justifiable. I really don't care what my phone looks like as long as it is not gaudy, so the color choice, or lack thereof, didn't really bother me.

My only complaint with the phone is the current lack of development. Coming from a Galaxy Nexus toro, I knew there wouldn't be as much development, but it's drastically less. There have been no official releases from CM or AOKP which still baffles me.
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
The phone just isn't that popular for some crazy reason.....boo Google....hopefully the new guys turn Motorola around. Also the things that make the Moto x unique are gone on CM. So demand is low. Xposed fills the gap nicely tho.

Voiding warranties unlocking non dev boot loaders probably adds to the lack of interest too.

Sent from my Moto X cellular telephone...
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
Decision for me was easy: I opted for the MotoMaker 32gb Moto X. A quick glance of the development forums let me know an unlocked bootloader wasn't necessary at all because there was (and currently is) little to no development for this phone. Having used this as my primary device for the past month, I quickly realized that custom roms don't add much to the experience when Xposed and GravityBox are available.

[Xperia Z1 General] dakunclear:
You don't want it strong like iPhone or the likes it kinda kills the photo and makes it to cool that is why on a dslr the flash is usually taken about 1 second before the shot so it dims a bit before the photo is shot so it adds more warmth rather then making the photo over cool

[Xperia Z1 General] Don_Perrignon:
Pretty much in agreement that the light is week. Okay. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't just mine.
[Xperia Z1 General] TheCraig:
Yes, it's very weak. With my Galaxy S3 it would perform better than a torch when it was dark outside. With my Xperia Z1 its crap as a torch. I'm not to bummed about it. Hell I hardly ever use Flash anyways.

[Xperia Z1 General] system02:
You should note that the Led is dim if you use it as a torch with a widget or program. But in camera mode when it's used as a flash it is pulsed much brighter! Test it for yourself. :)

[MENTION=4243560]TheCraig[/MENTION]: Yep, same here. I guess the Led of my Play could be used to make fire. ;)

Hi Guys

I am starting on a new project soon. And wanted some advise. Not sure if this is the correct forum to open.

I want to make an App for Android which constantly plays a presentation file (swf,flv,ppt etc) I want to install this app on more than one device. However i want to update this file from one location, for e.g make changes to the content from a server app and push the update automatically to the client app.

Is there a way to do this in Android world?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] xLordNitro:
My last day with the S4, My LG G2, comes in tomorrow, 350$ for a brand new G2, I call it a steal. It'll have pretty much the same internals as the S5 as far as I can tell, Snapdragon 800, 2GB of RAM, etc, The only place where I see the S5 perhaps having a better spec is if it has 3GB, of RAM, but That's something I can live with for a 500$ savings on My end. The KnockON feature on the G2 Seems killer. Seems like the phone I Should've gotten all along. The lag with the S4 is a pain in the butt.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] hovax615@hotmail.com:
I've gotten the moto x. Probably one of the best phones I've ever owned. Don't look at it as a downgrade and you can pick these phones up for a steal. In real life situations this has got to be the perfect phone. When you see something quick and want to snap a picture with wrist twist you can open up your camera and snap a picture without having to turn on the phone all in 2 seconds. Active notifications shows who texted you or emails, etc plus the time. Touch less control works well when your driving and have to call or text someone without taking your eye off the road plus a bonus active assist that will also read your text messages to you while your driving. Not much bloatware bogging down this device with stock android. I chose this over the nexus 5.

MOTO X Slapped
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Whafrodamus:
I don't personally own a moto X, but my company uses them (I ordered and set them up) and I'm inclined to agree with you. The moto X, regardless of its specs, is one of the best phones out there. It's fast, has a beautiful screen, great battery life and great build quality. Though there are a few little quirks that aren't that big a deal, but that little phone is comparable to my S4 or Note 2 (both running cm11) in overall usability

My understanding is that creating and deleting files with this method does work on Android 4.4, but making new directories does not.

If that solution is for non-root app developers, can you provide a link?

Bear in mind this solution is for app developers writing apps for users who may be on stock firmware without root access. I'm familiar with the proper solution for rooted users, where media_rw is added for the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission in /etc/permissions/platform.xml.
