[Moto X Q&A] FinalBabality:
Alright I figured it had something to do with the fact I installed it from Zip instead of waiting for the OTA. I tried that solution and that didn't work either. When I installed it with root and the tried to install from the Play Store, it just told me "Invalid Package." So I'll wait a little while, until it's solidly rolled out and then go back to 4.4 and then flash the OTA the official way. Thanks for the confirmation on the Zip being the issue. Not having any other issues though, so I might just stick it out.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
If you have updated to 4.4.2 then you cannot downgrade back to 4.4.
[Moto X Q&A] FinalBabality:
Have a dev edition with an unlocked bootloader. I've already done it once to try and fix this issue.
[Moto X Q&A] mastarifla:
Well you must have manually flashed 4.4 without the 4.4 bootloader then, because RSD wont allow you to flash from 4.4.2 down to 4.4.

Be careful because if you take an update while back on 4.4 you will hard brick your phone.
[Moto X Q&A] FinalBabality:
Yeah that's exactly what I did, that's a good point. So should I wait for Motorola to post the recovery files, and then flash that when it comes out? Would that be safer?

Yep, make it better but don't ruin it!

I hope they take a bite of Samsungs pie! ;)
[Moto X General] eksasol:
As long as they aren't like Thinkpad division where the laptop build quality keeps getting cheaper every year, I'll be interested.
[Moto X General] landale:
I wholeheartedly agree that they must keep the phone the same size. The size of the Moto X is truly one of its best features. I don't understand why each manufacturers mainstream models keep getting bigger and bigger as if the human hand is growing in size each year. After all you can just make a larger phone or more accurately phablet phone for those that want something larger.
[Moto X General] R3dbeaver:
Every year usually these kinds of threads are the one that makes me go "DARN IT i just bought my phone..."

But strangely, not this time.

I guess I'm that happy with this phone.

If anything though, I'd like to see a bigger battery.
[Moto X General] eksasol:
Maybe vertically, but not the sides, which are already too thin that my palm rest on the screen by accident and cancel out my regular touches. (And I guess Apple already have some patent on that.)
[Moto X General] Thrillhouse847:
Although this is good news, I'd still be concerned about the timeliness of updates for future devices once Lenovo takes the helm.
[Moto X General] cartmenicus:
I honestly wouldn't mind making the screen a little bit bigger 5.0 doesn't bother. Or if they had a 5.1 version and 4.8 or whatever it is Noe but I do enjoy the size just wish the screen was a bit bigger/1080 haha
[Moto X General] alpha-niner64:
Instead of releasing a new phone, they should keep supporting the current Moto X. We know the S4 chip is still plenty potent and I'd gladly pay a good price for a camera module I can install for increased quality. It's really the only black mark on the Moto X.
[Moto X General] Darth:
That's a concern for anything but a Nexus though.
[Moto X General] deathsled:
I have zero gripes with my Moto X. This is the first smartphone that I've had nothing to complain about. I don't even see why people hate on the camera. It's at least better than everything I've had before.

I am in no rush to upgrade. I can't see anything a new phone is going to offer me unless it has some revolutionary software on it. I'm not even using all the features on the current one to their fullest.
[Moto X General] vicegrips:
I would like a bit bigger screen, not huge. The 4.7" seems comprable with the M7 HTC One, but of course the M7's 4.7" doesn't count buttons. I think the Moto X could add just a touch more real estate and still remain small.
[Moto X General] alpha-niner64:
This is the part I don't get. That's probably because I don't see their money sense.

You invest new hardware and current-market pricing to release new phones and get people to buy new. You make a moderate profit. Or take this theory. You buy into hardware that's good enough, and continue to support it for say...3-5 years. You add new features, you fix bugs, you optimize the phone to its maximum potential. Throughout this time the people who like your phone and are completely satisfied with it will continue to keep their phones and not sell it back. Word of mouth sales will drive more sales knowing this phone won't go away in 1-2 years because everyone likes a good, long investment with long return-of-interest. As the tech matures, the price of fabrication for that chip goes down, and manufacturing prices go down such that you will make more profit over time while still maintain high level of demand and satisfaction. A long term investment basically.

The problem with my theory is that phones don't age well and new features like fingerprint scanners are becoming popular. Well, that's where the Moto X is different. It has the language and contextual processors, as well as the motion sensor for the camera. It has the Krait-300 based S4 processor. Best of all, computing requirements has hit a plateau such that a Snapdragon 400 will perform close to a Snapdragon 600 and 800 in real-world usage. The Moto X has the potential to be a long-lasting device because it has diversified tech that will stand out for years to come, versus being caught in the R&D Race for the never-ending spec wars. Do what Apple does with the iPhone 4, but do it better than them.

The only ONLY black mark against the Moto X is the camera quality. If there's a way to resolve that, as well as consistently bringing down price through long-term investments/support and maintaining their market presence through advertising and good-faith consumers: there won't be a need to rush out for another Motorola device any near future because demand for the current device (soon to be past device) will show there's no need to reinvent the wheel when the current one is a huge cash cow.
[Moto X General] Darth:
One important thing to remember about the updates lifespan is that 99.5 percent of customers know nothing of rooting and stuff, don't know or care what android version their phone is, don't even know what kit kat or jelly bean mean as far as their phone goes and don't care about updates or when the next is.........if the phone works they're happy.

So us here looking at it from our point of view does not reflect the massive majority of their customers. :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vafangool:
Hi Everyone, I am extremely new to rooting phones but I am very interested in rooting my phone. I have a verizon Samsung Galaxy note 2, SCH-I605 running 4.3,with build number VRUEMJ9 , I have been all over the place trying to get as much info as possible before trying anything because I am afraid of bricking my phone. I have read that the bootloader cant be unlocked so that means I cant install CWM. I was interested in trying the saferoot root method. I have been searching the forum like crazy but it just keeps confusing me more. I understand that since the bootloader is locked that I cant install custom ROMS, And once you root a phone can you turn it back? I guess if anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it, or even point me in the right direction of where I can learn more.Thanks alot in advance guys. Hope everyone is having a good day..

[LG Optimus Black] lg_p970:
Hi,

I bought a second-hand LG P970h from someone.

I am a customer of carrier "X" (not real name).

I have inserted my sim card to the phone, but the phone did not recognize it. So I can't use it for calls, messages and etc.

I checked in the web and I understood that my carrier blocked the phone for use with its sim cards because the device was reported as stolen.

I tried to convince the carrier to open the device but I did not succeed.

I tried to insert to the phone a sim card from other carrier, and it's worked fine.

So... what can I do now ?

I want to stay in my carrier and to use the phone.

Is there any way to do that ?

I have read a little about UNLOCK Code... is that the solution ?

Thanks a lot.
[LG Optimus Black] sahor:
Do not buy stolen phones! Your phone could be the next one.

I am sorry, but is not ethical.

I had no idea the phone is stolen :(

PLZ HELP !
[LG Optimus Black] androcraze:
The phone may very well have been lost or left somewhere by the original owner, or it may have outright been stolen. Either way, the original owner reported it as lost/stolen.

You have a lost/stolen phone in your possession. If your current carrier "called you out" on the issue, good for them! I'm glad someone actually tracks this stuff. Ideally the phone should be returned to the original owner, because he/she took a soaking on the cost of a replacement phone.

If you can find a carrier that doesn't care, then you'd better get a plan with them for that phone.

I'd also find a more ethical "someone" to buy used items from.

There's no bad on you at this point. You're not the first guy to get ripped off. But continuing onward with something that you know is probably stolen just isn't right.
[LG Optimus Black] sekhar13515:
It can be unlocked with technician

You would check phone thoroughly before buying..:eek:

Huexxx rockzzzzz
[LG Optimus Black] rjunai:
operators in Brazil

use the phone lock code (sim card band)

That does not mean that it is stolen ...

to unlock the use of all bands sim card, needed a software that generates a code w / unlock permanent

some carriers do not release the software or request "note fiscal" ...

if enter the wrong code will often lock the phone permanently

sorry bad english

I am Brazilian

I'm learning ...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dreamwave:
Is there a way for me to make my white sgs3 black? I can get a battery cover, but I want the front black as well.

The cosmetic designer for the sgs3 must have had some strange ideas, the actual black version wasn't even black, more of a scratched dark grey, and there is no way that I'm buying a custom front glass, not with the hair-dryer procedure.

If there isn't a way, I'll be fine, but I really want a black one without using decals.:fingers-crossed:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Just get a case that covers it up... It's a lot less work. Amazon has them cheap. Better protection, looks like you want, win-win.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dreamwave:
I want to have the glass on either side of the screen unobstructed, and I want the cosmetic appearance of a phone that isn't covered, What I want is some sort of shaded screen protector, one with the bezel area black and the screen completely clear

Yeah when I bought mine the color wasn't specified and of course it was white:rolleyes:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] prboy1969:
That would work for the front. As for durability, that depends on the quality of the material they use.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dreamwave:
and would it blend in with the screen? I'm going for the effect on the last few nexus phones, not the effect on the s4.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phenomzye:
Here's the story, bought an used S2, both back camera and front camera were working, but the back camera lens was a bit bad (the one on the case, it had scratches everywhere) so I replaced the back part of the case. My front camera had a little, small piece of dust inside it, so I disconnected the ribbon cable and lifted it up, my surprise was that when I kinda lifted it a bit up..

THESE TWO THINGS WERE SEPARATED.

View attachment 2600453

The black thing (which I think it's called the lens) stayed on the hole.

In this hole:

View attachment 2600454

it was

not

like the picture above, the black thing stayed down there and just the cable with some mirror-ish thing came out..

and the little piece of ribbon cable came apart without it. I gave it no importance and lifted the black thing by myself, cleaned both and when I did the reassembly and turned the phone on, the front facing camera gives me a force close as soon as I switch to it.

Any thoughts? did I damage the front camera by touching accidentally that part that looks like a mirror between the black thing and the ribbon piece? help! Back camera worked okay after some pushes, it wasn't working either but now it is..

I think you have accidentally removed the connection of front cam install antutu and check if it detects your front cam in specs
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elixir.:
Just open it once more and see if its connected properly,check for any damage as well...see maybe there's a small "metal" parts that need to be matched together ("on top" and "bottom")

if everything looks fine,you will need to replace that cam :p
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phenomzye:
You mean here?

It looks pretty detected to me.. :(

Yeah everything is as it should be, ribbon cables are connected properly.. I know it kinda looks like it's a hardware issue, it's so weird.. I would take some pics of how it looks now but I'm so afraid of damaging the rear camera(again) lol.. won't even touch the inner part..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elixir.:
Try to start it without SD card in the phone if that didn't help,fix permissions...

(I think you have already tried to force close the camera app and clear data?)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
If this issue persists in different roms with different kernel's(considering you already tried different troubleshooting methods like a different cam app) it will probably be a hardware issue,
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phenomzye:
I don't own an SDcard.. and fixing permissions didn't help either. Yeah. every time I switched to front camera it would FC when I tried to open camera, so yeah I have wiped camera's data a lot of times.

Umm.. I have to download some new ROMs then, will download, try and report. And yeah I have tried another camera apps with the same FC result..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
Good trying out a different ROM with a different kernel will verify whether it was a camera driver issue, and also might bypass any other kind of application conflicts.

Also, my reply is in the context of koksie's response:

The numeric values Koksie provides to change the implementation of the clock are wrong for the Alpine, so I went and worked out what they are for the 2i (which is in the post I directly link to above). You can achieve this fix with PHM Regedit (also in that thread) or any other registry editor.

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] tlazymoon:
try out this registry modification, see whether it helps

To include both time and date in taskbar

You'll get time and short date on your right top of the screen, rather just displaying time. Meaning, you can remove your date item on your today screen.

Code:

Phase 1:

1) Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\

2) Create a binary value named "TBOpt" and set its value to "13 00 00 00".

3) Soft-reset

Note: If u ever get bored of the date display, rid it by deleting the TBOpt key.

Phase 2: IF U NEED THE CHANGE THE DATE FORMAT:

i) Just go to Settings>Regional Settings>Date>Short Date

ii) Choose "dd-MMMM-yy" or whichever format u prefer.

iii) Click "ok".

cheersss
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] naoki1980:

You can buy the Zephyr HRM, I use that with both SportsTrackLive and Runtastic Mountain Bike

Take a look at this page, which is by SportsTrackLive, so the different hardware options are linked to their own software product, but you'll get the idea of what works.

http://www.sportstracklive.com/help/android

A word of warning, careful if you buy one from the States, if you're in Europe, you will end up paying an extra 50% in duties. So it would make sense to buy it in Europe, even though it appears more expensive initially.

Ok, so many people may be having this problem, I know I have, my 2 week old N3 stopped charging, and I cracked it and took it back..
