Your wrist and I should hang out some time :good:

(To several posters in general)

The OP does have a legitimate question and shouldn't be written off as a nut for asking it. Too often people grow to just 'accept' things based on fuzzy logic, group consensus, and leave it at that. This is not the way to live and learn any thing. Fact is, there are mounds of people with health issues that didn't begin until their living environments became grotesquely overrun with these emissions. People who sold their homes, moved, and report remarkable feelings of well being since. They have no agenda other than feeling better. These people were all written off as crazy as well.

And this fuzzy logic about us being bombarded constantly by networks around us? Outer space? Lovely. That does nothing to attest to 'proximity' and 'intensity' or how they relate. Then people go on to mix examples of ionizing radiation with non-ionizing radiation. You couldn't come to less of a scientific conclusion if you tried and you made fun of someone in the process. And while the majority of the studies on the matter have proven inconsistent results, that does not equivocate to insanity for considering it.

Fact is, if non-ionizing radiation is harmless in your mind; Go remove your microwave door, rig the safety switch, and have a meal on me. Which leads me to the SAR rating for microwave emission exposure, which was completely disregarded here. As people hurl 'you're crazy' around and allow more and more wireless devices into their proximity you compound your overall exposure rate.

If the OP want's a specific answer; We don't know. Use at your own risk.

Pretty impressing!! Participated!!!:):)
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bumpel:
I think the problem is that we don't know it by now. Also the emissions are adding up. Every device adds more. Until now there seems to be no harm in it. It will be interesting how the future plays out.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AstroDigital:
Bluetooth is generated by everything. (what about all those people sticking bluetooth in their ears and these watches use low power bluetooth)

Turn off your cell phone has magnitudes higher radiation. (30 years, while a few nuts claim it caused them cancer nothing has been proved)

You should also make sure you have no cell phone or coverage for that matter.

.....

Do not go out during the day, the sun is much worse. (the sun has been proved harmful)

Thatis some serious issue brah

I know someone had a brain surgey because he used bluetooth headset alot
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grisu48:
If you are interested, look for the SAR-rate (system absorption rate). It's a factor indicating how much of the radiation is absorbed by your body.

So, the total transmission power (of your device) times the sar-value gives you an estimate of the thermal energy per time unit absorbed by your body.

E.g. ( with some arbitrary values, not too far away from reality)

Sar = 0.1

Transmission power = 100mW

Absorption = 10 mW

To illustrate: with such an absorption you will need about 77 days to heat up a cup of coffee ....

Although there are rumours that such a radiatioin can damage your body, AFAIK the only approved damage comes from heating up your privates (seriously!) - they are outside your body because they need a temperature of 1-2°C less than your body temperature.

So as long as you don't build Android Underwear devices, you should be safe ;)

---------- Post added at 07:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

Indeed I also heared of people that had problem after heavy usage of such devices - the nearer any transmitting device is towards your sensitive parts, the worse they are (at least a 1/r^2 behaviour).
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimbobtexas:
This is why I came to this thread. I was not disappointed.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xerionius:
I think this is a legitimate question and the answer is: No one really knows.

Somebody I know used to talk on her mobile phone a lot and always held her phone to her left ear. Later, she got cancer at exactly that position of her head. Coincidence? Probably.

But I got some more: My mother drove a car with a radio that supported bluetooth. Everytime the Bluetooth was turned on, my left knee started hurting. It confused my and I thought it was just some kind of placebo-effect, so we made a blind test: She turned Bluetooth on and off and I had to feel if it's on. I guessed right everytime. It only worked with exactly this radio.

Sure, those are just some stories a random guy on the internet is telling, but why would I make them up? I myself carry my phone in my pocket all day and I seriously consider buying a Moto 360 and just hope it's not harmful.

Another Fact: Even though researches never an evidence for it to be harmful, in Germany mobile phones are classified as "possibly carcinogenic to humans"

So: Noone will be able to tell you if it's dangerous. Everything you do is on your own risk.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cognitior:
is it true?

Everything about that radiation is true?

i was thinking of buying smart watches but now.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Any more info on this topic? I am having trouble finding a definitive scientific answer online. I love my g watch but don't want my wrist to be "absorbing" anything.

Bluetooth is very low power right and it seems like it would be better using a watch than a phone in terms of radiation, but then again a phone isnt strapped to ones wrist all day.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xerionius:
That's right. But that's exactly what I was trying to say in my post. It may or may not be harmful, I don't know it.

But: Those tests were done in one hour. If Bluetooth wasn't the cause for the pain, that means my knee always hurt and didn't hurt in the right moment, and the probability for that to happen is pretty low. (I know, a low chance does NOT mean it's impossible).

Don't get me wrong, I'm not really afraid of radiation, I just disagree with people who say they KNOW it's not harmful, but I think it makes sense that radiation causes cancer: Electromagnetic radiation causes tissue to heat up, warmer cells age faster, so they have to get renewed more often which causes mutations. Sure, most likely this effect is so small that it doesn't have an impact at all.

I don't think it should be a concern. Bluetooth is very low power, and Bluetooth 4.0 is even less powerful.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fwayfarer:
Lmfao. This pseudoscience is peddled by someone usually selling a product. If you do the "REAL MATH" (TM) calculations the amount of absorbed RF energy is not enough to cause any measurable effect. People also do not understand the difference between ionizing and electromagnetic radiation. Ionizing radiation is like your cells were hit by a relativistic bullet. Electromagnetic radiation PERMEATES our environment - the earth itself generates enough of it to shield us from the harmful IONIZING radiation from the sun. In short, this topic of discussion is literally retarded. Literally, in the true defined sense of the word.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlastTyrantKM:
All you have to do is wrap your wrist in aluminum foil 3 layers deep before putting your watch on. Wear magnetic earrings, also. At night, sleep in a Faraday cage to prevent any residual radiation from compounding the deadly effects of your watch while you slumber. Problem solved
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pgzerwer:
The ongoing saga of humanity - the fewer real challenges we face, the more imaginary or incredibly insignificant ones we worry over. You are statistically probably more likely to be eaten by a tiger in New York City than suffer any real harm from the blue tooth on your wrist.

[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ruben46_:
Hope radiation is harmless. Think in wifi TV 3g fm radio , etc.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xerionius:
If radiation would be harmful, you still couldn't compare WiFi with TV/Radio with 3G. WiFi is WAY weaker than 3G and TVs and radios do not generate a signal - they only receive it. So you aren't near the signal source.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AstroDigital:
True fact look it up the most harmful source of radiation by orders of magnitude is the sun.

And they are not worried about a cell phone 700Mhz to about 2.5Ghz, WiFi, (low power bluetooth) and yes last I checked it was not strapped to my wrist but it is my pocket as long as my watch is on my wrist, so I see no point.

This is what everybody concerned should do,

Live at least a thousand miles from civilization (micro waves, cell, wifi radiation ) can not be good.

No electronics at all, chance of deadly radiation.

No power you know how the power lines cause cancer.

Got to go out a night only to avoid the sun.

The cabin in the woods if it was a Faraday cage it be ideal.

Then you will be safe.

but wait if you drink or eat anything ..... that may cause cancer.

radiation or you can put them off while you don't want to use them
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iggdawg:
Ok, so unless it's ionizing radiation, you pretty much don't have to worry about it. You body isn't "absorbing and storing" EM radiation of any sort from your gadgets. That's just not how that works.

EDIT - to be clear, consumer electronics do not produce ionizing radiation except in rare cases of damage or ingestion. IE: not when working as intended (PSA: don't eat smoke detectors)
[Android Apps and Games] alter0001:
Hi all,

Just developed a simple tool to change DNS server for Kitkat, but it also works for other Android version (2.2+). Here is the details:

On Kitkat (Android 4.4), changing dns server settings is not allowed by system. DNS Forwarder can work as a workaround. It does not modify system setting, just bypasses local dns server settings by forwarding dns queries to other configured server.

It works on rooted phones running Android 2.2 and above.

How to use:

1) choose a DNS server from list including Google and OpenDNS DNS servers. Also you can set up customized dns server. By default Google dns server 8.8.8.8 is configured.

2) Check "Enable Forwarder" box

DNS forwarder will start a service to serve DNS queries (UDP). To stop it, just uncheck "Enable forwarder".

Check it out on Google Play:

Update 4.4.4 Xt1052

Today morning, when i woked up and checked my phone, there was a update notification of 4.4.4. I was pretty much exicted looking that and i start the update process.

Now when the download was completed i clicked on Install the update, phone automatically powered off and rebooted into the TWRP and does nothing with that update. I selected that zip update file from cache folder and failed to install from TWRP as well. Then i rebooted the phone and after some time like 1 minute phone again rebooted into TWRP this time i removed CACHE so that next time the phone will not reboot and it works fine but i can't install the update

Please tell me how should i update now from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4, , if you did on your rooted moto x. I only unlocked bootloader and din't change the rom. Rom is still the same which i got at the time of purchase

[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Stock ----recovery----. You specifically said it rebooted into TWRP - which means you HAD to have flashed custom recovery. So flash stock recovery back on - from the 4.4.2 sbf of your carrier:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

and assuming you haven't made any significant modifications to /system, the OTA will install without issue. You data will be intact.

Recovery does not = ROM. Two different things.
[Moto X Q&A] m0yP:
Correct! Stock recovery must be present or the OTA update will fail.

If you have Xposed with any module you must remove them too.
[Moto X Q&A] benjamin1492:
Flashed stock recovery and still unsuccessful with 4.4.4 OTA upgrade

This is for Verizon Developer's Moto X with an unlocked bootloader.

I forgot that I loaded TWRP on my wife's phone so I tried to take the update and it failed. I also had the modified vzwentitlement.apk loaded so that she could use native tethering. So here's what I did:

- Deleted the modified vzwentitlement.apk

- Removed the ".bak" from the original vzwentitlementservice.apk.bak and the vzwentitlementservice.odex.bak files

- Unrooted the phone using SuperSU's Permanent Unroot option in settings (not sure that was required but didn't want to take any chances

- Downloaded and unzipped the Moto X 4.4.2 from the Motorola firmware site

- Copied the unzipped recovery.img to the Minimal ADB and Fastboot directory

- Flashed the stock recovery back to the phone

I did all that and the phone went into recovery with the little green Droid guy with the hatch open. The blue progress line got about halfway done when the phone rebooted and said it was unsuccessful.

Any ideas what I'm missing? I'd hate to have to flash back to 4.4.2 and lose all her settings, but I will if no one has any better suggestions.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Use the FXZ instead. It is a "keep data" FXZ which means that all here data and apps will be intact. It will require re-flashing TWRP, and re-rooting afterwards. You will also need to re-do the entitlement hack. It's very easy. You can use RSD Lite, and you should be back up and running with everything intact in less than 15 minutes from start.

The FXZ method does not use a manifest since it replaces your partitions completely - except for /data (where all your apps and settings are stored).

The zip contain many files as seen into the image below.

Please someone tell me the procedure of flashing them into my phone. I don't know actually how to go now. Do i need to wipe all the data from the phone or just have to wipe system only.

Is the below commands are enough or i have to do some other things as well.

mfastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

mfastboot flash logo logo.bin

mfastboot flash boot boot.img

mfastboot reboot

That did the trick, or at least a variation of it did the trick. The post said that the new 4.4.4 FXZ actually DID wipe date, so I followed the RSD Flasher instructions but kept data with a fresh 4.4.2 flash instead. Then I downloaded the 4.4.4 OTA. This time it took. I have re-rooted and got my tether hack back in place. Thanks for all your help.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.IMG

Should be sufficient. If you still can't take the ota, then also do:

mfastboot flash system system.img

Now you should be able to accept the ota without losing data. You will need to flash TWRP back and re-root.

If anything goes wrong, you will run all the commands you listed but that WILL erase all of your data.

Good luck :good:
