For your wife...unless she's a flashaholic....the Moto x will be a far better user experience. ;)

This above. I love my Moto X. I didn't notice any difference between it or my S4.
[Moto X Q&A] Lucky_Slevin:
I'm just concerned her moto x may become obsolete with only a dual core processor within the year.

She loves to multi task.

She loves the features of the X but wants a no non sense multi tasking device.
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
LOL. Nothing out there today can slow the x down. You need to understand how its made. It's highly optimised and has 2 other cores for other tasks.

It won't slow down any more than any other phone might in the future.

You want to get her a barbaric Dodge viper or a classy Ferrari ....that's the difference.

What's an N5 without Modding and flashing....

Nothing spectacular.

My wife hated android after her s2 which she gave away to go back to her iPhone 4. Then she played with my X.....guess what she wants for her birthday next month. ;)

I consider it more of a Porsche 911 slant nose turbo widebody ;) and I think the moto x is a WRX/EVO.

OK since the performance question has been covered, what about the screen ? Sharpness compared to a 400+ pixel screen ?
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:

There's a few opinions.

Basically every reviewer loved the overall experience of the Moto x that I've seen on the web.

The N5 is powerful and has a lot of roms. That's about all its pros.

The X is a polished and quality phone with exclusive Moto features. Near vanilla. And most can't tell the difference between the screens on devices this small. TV's sure....but not phones.

Unless she likes to flash stuff, the Moto x is clearly the better phone for average users. (Non xda types).

And battery......can't beat the battery on many phones. Had to throw that in. Lol

Granted....I'm rooted and tweaked for battery life....but few, if any, N5's can pull off these stats. Yes...this was a record day...but look at the averages at the bottom. I consistently get 30 hours or so with 5 1/2 to 6 hours screen time.

Also....do you see any complaints of quality issues in the x forums? Aside from average camera....comparable to the N5. I know for a fact the N5 forums have many build quality complaint threads. ;)

[Moto X Q&A] eksasol:
For your wife, Moto X is a better choice. It have Moto Maker so you can customize a color she wants. I consistently get 5+hours of screen on time with the Moto X, this is what matters, what's the point of all the power if you run out of juice before the day is over. The form factor is better to hold and is smaller in size without sacrifying screen estate.

The Moto X is well optimized and so is KitKat, it will run smoothly down the road. You can enable "ART" which will give the phone a bit more smoothness. There are people who came from Samsung Galaxy S4 and Note 3 which are much faster devices but complaining it's laggier than the Moto X due to the bloatwares and TouchWiz interface. The Moto X run stock Android so it's a lot lighter. Also since it has 720p screen instead of 1080p it doesn't require as much performance.

The Nexus 5 is also a great phone, you get unlimited freedom with flashing. You can't go wrong with either one, but the Moto X to me have more useful features going for it. It really depend on what you're looking for since they're both good phones. In this case since it's your wife, unless she's really into custom roms and tweaking Android OS, the choice is obvious.
[Moto X Q&A] Lucky_Slevin:
I thought it did not run stock android ?

My wife's coming from a Xperia Z which surprisingly she loved. She doesn't like apple. Hates Samsung (feels cheap) and was considering the HTC one but doesn't like the capacitive buttons. ( women are strange creatures )

No moto maker in Canada. I contacted Motorola US and they said they would only ship to an American address :( .
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
Moto x is stock android. Just a few Motorola apps thrown in. There's no touchwiz or HTC like ui overlay.

Yeah, I'm in Canada too. No Moto makers here. The Rogers versions are all over kijiji...some new too. Mine was unwrapped. I bought it, bought a telus nano sim. Before I activated the sim I bought an unlock code off a site. Waited a few hours for it. Got it...sim unlocked the phone and then activated my nano sim on the telus website. And boom it worked.

The next day I unlocked the bootloader, rooted, installed xposed and gravity box.....and have no desire to flash any roms now. Lol

[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
I appreciate your analogy as that is my favorite Porsche of all time and I'm a long time Subaru owner.

I think the Nexus 5 is more like the STi while the Moto X is like a s206. Basically the same car but the s206 is optimized with some choice additions which make it that much better.

Maybe a better analogy would be the Nexus 5 is like a 911 Turbo S and the Moto X is like a GT3 (maybe even the RS ;)). The GT3 is down on power but it's a better overall driving experience. The quad core GPU of the Moto X is like the combination of the GT3's upgraded suspension/tires/aero with a lower curb weight, the dual core CPU is like the high-revving flat 6, and the remaining low power dual core relates to the PDK. While some night not want the Touchless Controls and Active Display (which I can relate to the PDK and engine type) because they'd rather have the brute power of twin turbos and the feel of a manual, others will want the instantaneous shifts of the PDK and a 9k redline NA engine.

If you can see it in the dark you probably don't have a problem with the lighting. Make certain you are have auto-brightness enabled before you decide to ditch the device. If you have the brightness down at a low level in sunshine it would be tough to see the screen. That or crank the brightness all the way up.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PMDPhD:
I flashed Chillybeans unofficial CM 10.2 and it works great so far. I was wondering if I would still need to SIM "unlock" this phone to use it overseas or on a GSM carrier.

I have been using this old phone as a backup/media player on WiFi and currently is not active on any cellular carrier. I may want to use it when I travel since it a global phone.

Thanks
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 121tech:
The phone comes with a pre-installed VZW/Vodaphone SIM Card that, with a current VZW account, allows the phone to roam with additional charges on foreign cdma and gsm networks when abroad.

It needs to be unlocked to use other carrier SIM cards.

The unlock code is stored in hardware memory and is unaffected by rom or modem/radio firmware flashing.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jam0688:
Unless you plan on going global a sim isn't necessary. It works on CDMA. As for unlocking it to another carrier I believe it would have to be flashed to that company unlike the galaxy s4 the sim port on the dinc2 is strictly for global use. I believe there's a forum floating around on here about it. Hope this was helpful and be sure to click thanks if it was.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jam0688:
I mean u can use it on local gsm if its unlocked or ur s-off but u will only get Edge support. But if u just wanna use it on cdma using a cm rom has nothing to do with the sim just need an unlocked bootloader or to be s-off.

---------- Post added at 01:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:03 PM ----------

Now if u used htcdev bootloader unlock then ur phone will only work on global and not local gsm u need to be s-off to use on other gsm networks whether the sim is unlocked or not bec its locked through htc not verizon. Sorry bout so many posts i get carried away sometimes lol hope this helps
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] PMDPhD:
Thanks for the responses, but I am still a bit confused. OK so for more background, I am rooted, fully S-OFF, and have flashed an unofficial CM 10.2 ROM from this forum link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2049902.

I am pretty new to rooting and modding and I am still a bit confused about the carrier lock. I get that if I buy a Verizon phone they lock it to their network until it's paid for and I should be able to unlock it now that I am no longer a Verizon customer, I have not actually called them to ask for this. Is this "lock" embedded in the actual SIM card, or some sort of partition in the phones memory that rooting/flashing ROMs does not touch? I assumed flashing a ROM deletes almost all the carrier software except for the recovery partition.

I have the manual to this phone, and I cannot find a spec sheet that lists the radios present inside this device. I assumed because it was "global" it had some GSM radios, am I wrong?

Here is the scenario I want to use this: I'd like to visit a friend in the UK, and instead of bringing my current phone, I'd bring the DInc2 toss the Verizon SIM card in the trash, buy a local carrier SIM card, pop it in and pay my charges and use it for the week. I know you can do that with Nexus phones because they are fully unlocked, would I be able to do this with my DInc2 if I got the Verizon unlock code since flashing a ROM does not unlock it?

Thanks.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] prestonmcafee:
I'm trying to launch an skschema script with a voice command. The script works fine and I can run it from traylaunch. But when I add a voice tag to it, it reverts to the Today page without running the script, but also with no error (it identifies the voice command, but the script doesn't execute).

Voice speed dial (the native WM5 program) will execute other programs (e.g. calculator) on my T-Mobile MDA. I have two different skschema scripts and it won't execute either one of them by voice. I tried adding a sleep 5000 command to the first command so that it would delay execution but that didn't help. I also tried creating a shortcut to the script file, rather than using the sScript, but that didn't help either.

Anyone encounter this? It would make it so handy to do complicated things without getting the stylus out. (I'm trying to get it to empty the deleted emails and then sync, which deletes them from the server.)

Both programs I have tried to implement with voice speed dial are listed here in the third post:

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=49187

I tried attaching voice tags to both of these programs. (I'm using the native voice command in WM5.) Both operate properly by clicking on them, including in Traylaunch or in Programs/sScript. I have other programs (e.g. calculator) accessible by voice commands, so it isn't a problem with running programs in voice command. Both fail in the same way -- the voice command reverts to the today screen.

(2) Scroll down to "Settings Storage" and open it

(3) Open "Settings.db"

(4) Next, tap "System"

(5) Scroll down until you find "notification_panel_active_app_list" NOT the notification_panel_default_active_app_list.Tap it.

Good one. I skipped few toggles that I did not wanted...

Nice post... You can also exclude the toggles you don't want or are not of use like NFC, Multiwindow, etc.

I excluded few. ;)

For other users. Making it little clear. If your don't find "notification_panel_active_app_list" in the list(probably you won't), go and add new record and enter the values starting from Wifi; and others,... (I wrote CODES and then started:p) and found no toggles, so then excluded it.

Note: When you will be adding the code mentioned in the post, keypad would automatically add spaces after each toggle head your write. Like this Wifi; Location; SilentMode; AutoRotate; Bluetooth; MobileData; So, make sure you edit and remove the space before you save otherwise you'll only see Wifi i.e. the first toggle on the list. Also the last i.e. WiFiHotspot has "F" as a capital letter. I wrote WifiHotspot and scratched my head for an hour trying different stuff for not getting that toggle. :D

Values I used are as follow, I have changed the toggle pattern and have excluded few according to my use(Only if you want to use): "Wifi;SilentMode;Bluetooth;MobileData;PowerSaving;SmartStay;WiFiHotspot;Location;AutoRotate;Sync;AirplaneMode;DormantMode;"

Yes, we can also change the toggle pattern as per the needs.

NOTE: Make sure you don't keep a space between the code during saving the file.
