Pattern Lock

How useful are Active Display, Touchless Control & Motorola Assist - Driving when pattern lock is enabled? Does pattern lock get in the way?
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
Can't help you on Moto assist yet as I haven't yet used it. I thought active display would be gimmick that will be useless more or less. And I glad that I was completely wrong about it. Very useful. Love the fact that it displays the clock and notifications when you just pickup the phone and look at it without needing to press any button or unlock the phone. As a person who does not carry watch and find myself looking at phone for time a lot, this was great thing to have.

I was using Ok Google for a while and I find it useful. So that part is not completely new. But it is great. The detection is good even in relatively noisy environment.

[Moto X General] sajidrehman:
Pattern Lock

If pattern lock is enabled & you try Touchless Control does it go through or do you have to do the pattern unlock for it to complete? Are there some actions like Call/Text that go through while others require unlocking?

Is it the same with Active Display? Swipe upwards & you have to unlock it?
[Moto X General] DaRkRhiNe:
Moto x being a wonderful phone why isn't there so much development going on here ?Any specific reason?

Though we have Major roms like PA,CM,PAC ; we still don't have many roms like AOKP etc

My previous phone was SGSA and it has tons of roms without even having proper sources

Just asking AND not demanding anything :angel:
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
There are different privacy levels. You can say it up to show notifications or hide them when you have pattern or pin lock enabled.

---------- Post added at 07:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 PM ----------

One reason is the stock rom being too close to aosp to begin with. And moto have done excellent job at optimising the rom for great performance out of box. Sure, some people will want aokp, pa, cm features. Most of them are here. But you have to remember that moto X launched outside USA very late. Lot of developers did not have access to one. Many still don't.

There is still healthy development going for the phone.

[Moto X General] Gundabolu SC:
Cus its just more awesome! :D ;)
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
Simply because I like to try new things. I Dont use single phone for long with exception of select few which are simply awesome.

Nexus 4 is now given to my dad who still uses it. And today, I will take Moto X over Nexus 4 any given day. Only phone that I consider better is Nexus 5. These 2 phones are in their own league as far as day to day usability, fluidity and performance is concerned.

Great performance, great price, great in hand feel, great features without too much bloat. This is what I look for in the phone.

And I love the active display. Finally someone put AMOLED screen to good use in Android world.

Has anyone tried rooting the indian version ?

If yes plz give me the guide, because all the guides I read were for 4.4 and none had XT 1052 version listed in them

Also is there any method to only root without unlocking the bootloader

My moto x is on 4.4.2
[Moto X General] naishadh:
help

my moto x will come tomorrow but my question is same as u boss.

how can I unlock and flash custom recovery on it.and which is best rom for moto x?

or stock with root is cool?pl some one post root guide or recovery files here pl.

we need support for this great devise in india/
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
The normal root procedure is simple. Unlock the bootloader, flash custom recovery and then flash SuperSU zip and you will have root.

But before doing that I suggest you spend couple of days with the phone to make sure there are no issues with the hardware. I received defective Moto X from Flipkart. My first one has issues with oleophobic choosing issue. The coating did not cover the screen completely and right edge was missing the coating. Also back had yellow chemical spots. This on where version stands out. So make sure everything is alright before unlocking bootloader as that voids your warranty.

Flipkart was great and replaced it immediately though.

[Moto X General] Doomrider:
a couple of questions

Hi there guys

First post on xda

Got my MX yesterday

Had couple of questions that i had no reliable answer to after digging around

1.theres no way to root our indian MX without unlocking the bootloader right? Mine came with KK so i don't think slapmymoto will work...any insight?

2.If the bootloader's unlocked i know that it does a factory reset , but does it also wipe the SD card?( got stuff sitting there i'd rather save)

I ask this as this is what happens when a bootloader is unlocked on an xperia device.

3. Lastly this is somewhat noobish but do the customs roms support our phones unique features (touchless controls, active display, etc) like stock ?

Thanks in advance guys
[Moto X General] eeshlikhith:
1. a. Just unlock the bootloader (Refer https://motorola-global-portal.cust...e/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a/action/auth)

b. Using flashboot flash CWM or TWRP

c. Flash SuperSU Zip

This is what I've seen from a quick search. No slapmymoto needed (Thats only for phones with bootloaders which cannot be unlocked like ATT and Verizon AFAIK)

2. Yes.

3. No.
[Moto X General] DaRkRhiNe:
As you all know the indian version comes with ' msm8960pro ' version

And not the msm8960dt version

As all the custom roms are msm8960dt based , will they work on our devices?

I did a little research and found that msm8960pro means a improved version of Qualcomm processor

Can anyone shed some light on it?
[Moto X General] eeshlikhith:
where did you see this?

EDIT: mine says msm8960T (no d in middle). Probably the same chip.
[Moto X General] DaRkRhiNe:
post a pic of your about phone
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
Antutu does not report the processor correctly. I have mentioned this in other thread as well. Our Moto X is identical to all other GSM versions from USA and EU.

If you use CPU Z you will see it being reported at MSM8960DT.

From my Moto X, in your face!
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
OK, this is just FYI.

If anyone fearing the bootloader unlocking due to lack of SBF to return to stock if something goes wrong for Indian Moto X, no need to worry.

You can use Blur_Version.161.44.34.ghost_row.AsiaRetail.en.03 from this linkk : http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0

I know it shows Retail Taiwan. But our Indian Moto X is running this exact firmware.

Guides already in stickies.

[Moto X General] Tech2Yantra:
Does Moto X (XT1052) Indian variant have FDD-LTE 1800 MHz capable chip ?

Hi, I have read that Moto X (XT1052) supports the FDD-LTE band 800/1800/2600 MHz. But as of now no operators in India run the 1800 MHz FDD. Airtel is in process of setting up the 1800 FDD LTE.

So my question is whether the XT1052 has the chip for 1800 MHz support and will it work on LTE when finally LTE comes in India later this year or afterwards ??

Will a software update (like baseband radio) by Motorola or Telecom do the job later?
[Moto X General] digkong:
ok so this means we can go ahead with unlocking bootloader and if by any chance we have to claim warranty we can flash this sbf and re lock our device bootloader. if this is the case I'll happily root my device without any fear. please clarify.

thanks in advance.
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
No.

Once you unlock the bootloader, warranty is void.

You get bootloader unlock code from Motorola. So your IMEI is in record with them.

Even if you go back to stock completely, the bootloader status will show as "Relocked".

The file I mentioned is only for recovery in case something goes wrong or you want to go back to stock to take new OTA update.

That does not reinstate your warranty.

I have seen Motorola, Samsung and many other OEMs honor warranty even if you had unlocked bootloader. But that does not mean you should take it for granted.

Using it since three weeks now , I have found none yet !
[Moto X General] Doomrider:
depends really

I was in the same spot as you

Took a chance on the MX

Hasent let me down in the 3 weeks ive been with it:good:

It all comes down to your usage really

Its got a quad core gpu but i dont really expect it to play real high end stuff

Internal storage is limited ; if your a fan of watching movies and videos on your phone you might find storage space running out constantly

Camera as some have pointed out is nothing to write home about although ive found it to fit my needs

The battery is non removable; although some might view that as a pro rather than a con

It requires a nano sim which might be hard to come by depending on where you live

Also Moto's shut shop in india so service centers will be hard to come by; although FK did give me a list of them with the phone

Otherwise its a solid phone ,the unique features notwithstanding , runs real smooth day to day does almost everything without lag

TLDR: if your a power user look somwhere else, if not buy it

[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
Good to know that worked. As I mentioned, I posted it after testing out myself.

It was a risk at that time but as version number matched, it was safe to assume we had same firmware.

First India specific update came yesterday 161.44.38 Asia retail. Yet to see sbf of that. But the original 161.44.34 Asia retail will continue to work as a backup sbf in case we need to restore our phone to stock.
[Moto X General] digkong:
so it wont be possible for us to get this new ota if we use the retail taiwan firmware..?

Should not be a problem. The Moto X I restored to stock got the yesterday's update when I checked for update in settings manually.

Moto X touchless control

Hey Guys, how's your experience with touchless controls been ?

I don't know if I have a very common voice or what, but other people manage to open my phone, although they need more than one try and have to hold the phone really close.

I also see that my phone unlocks with just 'ok google', sometimes with just 'ok goo..' also ! I've tried re training the voice various times, but it's still the same. Not an issue really as it responds to me all the time, but then you can't brag about it too much if your friend is also able to wake up the phone ! :silly:

My Moto X doesn't respond to "OK Google Now what's up" when input language is set to English(India) instead it does a google search but works on English(US). Also when ask "Ok Google Now Play music" it just opens up the google play music app, and shows an error "Couldn't prepare instant mix.Please try again." doesn't plays any music.

I updated my moto X (non root) to 161.44.38.en.03, Anybody else root their device running the same version? I was wondering if I did root my device now how do I get back to stock later to install future OTA updates? or can I apply OTA updates directly without going back to stock? Also if it's possible to disable over the air updates, Also if it's possible to disable over the air updates somehow?
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
Currently Indian Moto X ship with 161.44.34

161.44.38 update is just minor update that added some missing APNs. Nothing more. You can root using same method as before. Unlock bootloader, Install custom recovery, flash SuperSU and you are good to go.

To go back to stock you can use 161.44.34 SBF File. It is safe to flash 161.44.34 even if you have updated to 161.44.38

Never try to apply OTA if you have rooted and have custom recovery. It is not always unsafe, but it can be. We dont know unless someone tests it.
[Moto X General] anwesh:
Yeah, taking an OTA after rooting and installing Custom Recovery makes ur X a near brick (well, atleast soft brick). I experienced that when i took an OTA after rooting 161.44.34... Better to flash the stock, take OTA, then root it again...

Moto X bought in the US (unlocked) but no data?

Hey guys,

I am visiting India and got a Moto X from ATT (unlocked it) . I popped in a nano sim (Airtel) and go reception and was able to make a call and send texts. But I am unable to get data. Now, I know the LTE bands for U.S. and India are different. Is there anyway I can force HSPA on my moto X and check if I can get it work?
[Moto X General] Funkym0nkey:
You just need to configure the APN manually. Go to settings. Under Wireless and Networks click More > Mobile NEtworks > Access points name.

There click on + sign. Use any name like "Airtel Internet" in name field and APN fiels input " airtelgprs.com" then click on the menu (3 dots on top right) and click save. (DO NOT USE quotation marks " ")

Now go back and you will select Airtel Internet APN in the list. Select that (circular selection area on the right sideand you should have HSPA+ connectivity.

This is how our should look like.

A simple google search will give you settings for most carriers.See this link : http://broadbandforum.co/topic/67168-apn-settings-for-all-operators/ Remember, you dont need to input access number in most these phones. So skip that step from the link.

Also if the phone asks for MCC code, you can try 404. If that does not work, try 405. These 2 are for India.
