Haven't checked us deals since this seemed pretty good + I want to avoid additional shipping/customs costs.

Yep, it does the charging (I think that's it's sole purpose) , although slower than the wall charger, but since the battery life will be great we won't have to charge often anyway ;)
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] drago10029:
Thanks!
[Moto 360] pierrekid:
Is it just me or does it seem kind of suspicious all of these "expert" review sites came out of the blue and bashed the 360 's battery life and performance before giving it a proper test? Also suspicious how most of these sites are either pro apple or pro samsung ( don't get me wrong I love samsung too). If you check the reviews coming out now from sites that actually know how to review (Gizmodo, phandroid, droidlife, anandtech etc...) they all say the battery life is perfectly fine. Even here on our forums everyone is confused as to how these review sites got such "terrible" battery life... yet we all are consistently getting decent life with and without the ambient sensor on. Looks to me like jealous competitors paying off the media to bash the 360 before it can even get off the ground. Just my 2 cents...
[Moto 360] DroidDavi:
id hate to see that happen but yes most of the sites that had bad early reviews are sites with clear apple bias proved multiple times. Im hoping maybe they just had early software or hardware
[Moto 360] thesparky007:
Idk if I agree with you.. Those media sites probably only got a hold of the watch on the 4th and had to write a review within a day because the watch was released on the 5th... One day is never enough for a good judgment of battery life
[Moto 360] CandyAndy:
nah, probably all the tech sites got this on their hands already couple of weeks ago but since they have embargo to post anything before the 5th they couldn't say anything. I was actually suspecting this already some weeks ago since all the major tech-sites went silent on Moto360.

They have had their fare share to test the moto 360 and if they say the battery is awful I am willing to believe them. I mean the battery size is very small and for some reason Moto went for a very power hungry processor. I have no idea why they made such a big mistake but this is what we have now.
[Moto 360] javispedro:
Actually I find most websites extremely Pro-Motorola, with "this is the first real smartwatch" and the like comments.
[Moto 360] AstroDigital:
The original Galaxy Gear look like a "Smart Watch" to me.

Moto fans sound like apple sheep, look Motorola invented the first smart watch.

The latest battery life test I seen said the watch was turned on 7:30 am and went on until 11 pm and had 28% left.

Well my Gear Live has the same battery life but I do not have to flick my wrist or press and button to turn the display on.

If I used the Gear Live the same way it last 2 days easy.

In ambient mode they say 13 hours???

Really go out in the evening and your "cool" looking watch turns into dead weight.

You do not speak for everybody, why not buy a round phone?

Because you do things like read email and the round shape is a waste of screen space.

The same can be said with a watch, I read emails on my watch.... Why would I want it to be round.

I have since the age of digital watches always had a rectangular watch, and this means since the 90s

but face it Motorola is a Chinese company (soon) you do not have to be loyal to it, and the battery life of the Moto 360 is joke.
[Moto 360] Eliad Kimhy:
Because I don't want to look like a dork?

Plus, that's not how I'd like to use my smartwatch- I don't want it for reading emails, I just need to know that I got an email. If I want to read it, I'd just pull my phone out and read it. Much in the same way, I don't use my phone to write up long replies to emails, that's not what it's for, I use my laptop to do that, after I've read it on my phone.
[Moto 360] tsy87:
this is exactly how I plan on using the watch. Sure, in a pinch I can read the emails on my phone, but it's not ideal. Same thing with my phone... Sure, I can respond to emails from my phone, but ideally I would reply from my computer.
[Moto 360] its_dale:
me too. more-so to know if the message i received needs immediate response or if it can wait. some people expect the watch to be more than just an extension of a notification center.
[Moto 360] gammite:
no doubt in my mind.

i cant wait until google updates android wear.
[Moto 360] theraker007:
I dunno.. I am not having battery issues but i find the watch extremely underwhelming so far and more annoying than helpful. I dont like that the person sitting next to me can easily read a text sent to me if my wrist is in view. I don't like how cumbersome the UI feels (yes i know its an early iteration and will get better) and i find that since im such a habitual phone checker anyway.. all the watch does it make me look at the same message twice because im going to open my phone to respond to the message anyway. I'm not gonna look like an idiot **** tracy dictating a text into my watch.
[Moto 360] tsy87:
It's obviously not for everyone. For me personally, I started wearing watches recently so instead of having to whip out my phone to check the time, I can just look down on my wrist. Having a smart watch will now allow me to determine if a message is worth responding to immediately or if it can wait without having to use my phone to check.
[Moto 360] pfroo40:
Isn't it possible that some of these reviews were written about a pre-release device? I know that the embargo was only lifted on Friday, but we have seen these things in the wild for the past 3-4 months on the wrists of various pop-tech people.
[Moto 360] knoxploration:
No, "everybody" here is not confused. Many, many people are confirming what the reviews have said, or even saying that they can't get into double digits in terms of hours of battery life with light to moderate use.
[Moto 360] TheJesus:
Uhh, where are the many people? I'm on here and reddit's Moto 360 section. Almost everyone is claiming positive battery life, I've seen one post that was less than a day and that's because it was their first day using it so they were constantly messing with it. I'm at 18 hours and 28% left, I even used it for some navigation, a lot of email/FB/SMS checks, just messing with it, etc.
[Moto 360] RunNgun42:
Nobody can easily read your text message from your watch no matter how close they are sitting next to you. For starters normal human posture is going to make the watch appear upside-down to anyone next to you. On the off-chance you have your wrist angled in such a manner that the screen is oriented upright, they'd still have to be gawking at your wrist to read anything from it, something that I'm sure you would notice and would be very awkward for them to pull off. Finally, at least on the G watch, the text message is only displayed when you tap the message. All anyone would actually see is a notification from the senders name, not the message itself. There are plenty of events that dont require you to look at your phone to acknowledge. Reminders, timers, alerts, etc. Half the emails and SMS I get do not require a response so I just dismiss/delete them from the watch face.

---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:50 PM ----------

I knew these battery life reviews were trash before the watch was even released. I could just tell from the reviewers attitude that they either held some sort of bias against the device, or they were just typical review clowns who didnt really use it at all. Whether they got their hands on one a week in advance or a day in advance, I think it's obvious they only tested it for about 2 hours, saw battery life was down to 80% with screen on full brightness messing with it nonstop, and then decided they could just average out the usage for the remainder of the day so they could get on to the next review. I mean honestly, you think a reviewer who has to write 10 articles by the end of the week actually sat there and played with this watch nonstop the whole time? Hell no, they just rushed through it.
[Moto 360] knoxploration:
Balderdash. In this very forum, probably 2/3 of posts are saying 12-14 hours tops, and probably a full 1/3 are saying they can't even manage that long. Very, very few are saying longer than 18-20 hours.
[Moto 360] TheJesus:
Maybe I'm doing it wrong, lol. I'm not as active in this subforum as Reddit, so I'm going off what I see over there and the few that I've seen here. I'm at 4 hours and 87% right now, so I don't know unless these people are using always on screens.
[Acer Iconia A500] insta_gib:
I have been looking at the a500 forum for a few days now.

I have picked up a bricked a500 from a yard sale for pretty cheap. I have used many of the different guides on here was even able to boot up my old copy of Back Track 5 to get my CPUID.

when i turn the tab on nothing but the power light comes on the screen is dark and off there is no light comming from it.

when i do the manual APX mode it works and the PC can recongize it as such.

Im not sure but i have completely dissembled the entire tablet and found no burn outs or even any sign that it was ever taken apart before. The screen may be out but im not entirely sure. Now on to my issue every guide i use on the a500 forum works to some extent they all see it in apx mode they all successfully connect and start to load the .bct's (the vibration motor even pulses after the first success) and such but most stop working at initializing the bootloader and other various parts. The programs ask if i see anything on the screen but the screen is still off (by off i mean no back light or any indication of it displaying anything) i have shined a light at the screen to see if it was just the back light but in truth the entire screen is completely off.

im kinda stuck and not sure where to proceed i would like to use this tablet but if it is beyond me being able to repair it id rather take the small loss and not spend anymore time or money on it

any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thank you.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Go here, second post. Download TDV4 (Timmy Deans Rollback Tool). Unzip it to your PC. Run the PB.....exe file while using "Administrator Rights". In other words, "Run as administrator".

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2049778

Ignore all the stuff in the beginning, like looking for current image, etc. After a few minutes it will prompt you with a dialog to start your tab in APX mode, and plug it in. Enter CPID when asked, and hopefully it will finish. If it does, you should have a pre-rooted 3.2.1.

If it hangs for more than 15 minutes during the process, try it again. Also, I have a post with a link to another EUUS, for the A501. (don't worry, it will work on a 500). Sometimes must switch back and forth between the 2 EUUS files, until it completes.

What you have mate, is a corrupted bootloader partition. And unfortunately, there might be little to do to fix it. If you're lucky, like the rest of us, you can still run 3.2.1, but won't be able to upgrade to ICS.

Another thing you may try, if the above fails, it put the mainboard in an oven at 200C for 5 minutes (this is what I did). There's a thread here on that also. ;)

[Acer Iconia A500] insta_gib:
I used the linux tutorial to grab my cpuid and it worked with no issues but when i put it into this program it says wrong cpuid and asks me to reset the tab and try again i will be getting on my linux machine after work to try again any insite you may have on this issue would help.

thank you
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
make sure the first digit is 0, here is mine for example

038061c7409fa617

And should be the exact same amount (16)

Other than that, I don't have any idea.
[Acer Iconia A500] KingKwentyne:
Ahhhh. LOL i was doing the 0x and then without the 0x trying it now.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Aha........

Yep, try it without the "0x". Now note that an SBK (secured bootloader key), demands the "0x".

Example: 0x79531F00 0xBB680C01 0xFB22E803 0x8ADE2003
[Acer Iconia A500] insta_gib:
So i have tried what you posted a few times. No luck it just hangs im going to try on my desktop at home and see if its enviromental. could you link the a501 and ill try it at home tonight and again. Thank you for all the help you have provided so far.
[Acer Iconia A500] insta_gib:
back from a long break of trying to mess with my Tablet. Still nothing i have tried has worked fully a few things have completed the flash with no visable result. Im not really sure what exactly is wrong with the tablet but i can enter apx mode with no issue what so ever but the screen will never display anything. there is no indication the screen was damaged but it is possible that it needs a new LCD i hope it dosnt but im starting to think the tablet works fine just the screen is bad. if anyone has had/recovered an a500 with an issue similar to mine any help on how you fixed the issue would be a great help.

Has anyone found a 12v car charger that will charge the G3 while it is being used as a satnav or is the drain from the screen just too high?

I've tried a few different cheap unbranded chargers that will slowly charge the phone when not used but they seem to have little effect when used with Google maps.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GioDoe:
I am using an Anker dual-port 24W quick charger sold on Amazon. I can confirm that it charges the phone even with the satnav running (it is the first one I found that really works).

It does not fit perfectly my car's cigarette lighter's plug (it moves a bit when plugged), but overall I am very satisfied about it.

But, others having the relevant info/files are also urged to respond.

Does Xolo Q3000 device have SELinux support (in-built for KitKat)?

Could someone upload the stock boot.img, stock recovery.img and vold.fstab (in /system/etc)

for KitKat

?​

Has anyone resized the recovery partition up to 7 MB or higher for trying other custom recoveries like Philz/TWRP?

Could someone describe or link to the procedure?​

Many thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Well everyone probably already knows I hate doing OP's so they stay pretty simple and this wont will be any different.

This is ported from the N7100 which is based on Omni rom. Original rom is located here

http://en.miui.com/download-35.html

and is the one by mdiary. So far only issues I know of it call recorder does not work (just says being used by another app) and you have to go into settings..mobile networks..network mode and change to CDMA+LTE/EvDO to enable 4g after every boot. If you flash any gapps package you will lose gps. I am working on a special version but it is not ready just yet.

So I took the base and turned it into a full featured rom with a whole mess of add-ons and tweaks.

Included items/tweaks/mods

Adfree (although I already have a host list created)

dolphin browser

dolphin jetpack plugin

adobe flash 11.1 kk

es file manager

LG G3 Keyboard and a few themes

WSM (MIUI Xposed)

Mi-Tools module (like wanam or gravity box)

Paid themes module (all miui themes are free)

AOSP Dash Clock widget

AOSP Calender widget

Terminal emulator

A bunch of build.prop tweaks

A bunch of init.d scripts (to enable them you need to use a root browser and edit /system/etc/init.d.cfg change from false to true to enable that script)

Bug list

MIUI-l900 4.9.5

Any Omni bugs

call recording does not work

If you flash any gapps besides mine you will lose gps

Change Log

MIUI-l900 4.9.5

9-8-14

First port of rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
Downloads

Flashing instructions

1. Backup internal sdcard to you PC or external sdcard (this will really help prevent issues

2. Boot into recovery and backup current rom

3. Do a factory reset (if using philz/cwm do clean for new rom)

4. Format/wipe internal sdcard (if you dont do this and have issues first thing I will say is format it)

5. Reboot back into recovery (this will create your internal sdcard dir structure)

6. Flash MIUI and boot it

7. After initial setup power off and boot into recovery

8. Flash Gapps (please do it in this order or you will end up wiping and reflashing)

9. Boot into rom

10. Go to post #3 and follow those steps

Do not flash any kernel besides the modified Plasma or your rom wont boot. If there is an AOSP kernel you want to use let me know and I will make it compatible. This goes for the dual boot kernel (for now anyways).

MOD EDIT: Removed
