For number 2, if you install xposed and app settings, you can change the DPI for the camera back to 480. I also noticed that the Active Display is off too. So you'll want to chance com.motorola.motodisplay back to 480 too.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Few more pet peeves, but not deal killer.

No Moto Skip (nfc unlock) support, at least not yet.

Micro USB jack doesn't have a satisfying click when you insert a connector.

Lowest brightness is not dim enough, stops dimmingat 8/100.

Still can't control my music or see weather updates via Active (Moto) Display.

i agree with music controls. at least have the play/pause, next and previous track symbols there. it won't take up that much more battery imo
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nomadism:
Display - love the new high res dpi, but the saturation and yellow-ish white is so annoying.

Other stuff...are to some degree, hard to complain about. Yes, it's Motorola's flagship, but the cost is significantly lower than the other flagships. Does that justify the weaker camera and less future proof specs...I'm still debating.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marvin02:
For those who have both the 2013 and 2014 Moto X - how does the 2014 screen brightness compare to the 2013 when using outdoors?

All of the test data I have seen says that the 2014 X is dimmer than the 2013 X, which was barely bright enough for me. I use my phone outside a lot.

The camera, although I think I've had better results with FV-5 and the stock Android camera app. Is it just me? Otherwise it seems way too grainy.

Also, Moto Voice doesn't seem to work in my car's bluetooth while the phone's in my pocket, as I have to bring the phone closer so it hears me. It'd be nice to use Moto X with bluetooth microphones.

Music control from the Moto Display would be awesome. And I think it would be neat to play playlists or artists from Google Play Music with Moto Voice, too, although I think that doesn't work because I'm on pt-BR)

Settings>Language & Input>Voice Search>Bluetooth Headset - Records audio through Bluetooth headset if available.

My only complaints with mine so far are:

No date on Active Display, only on Lockscreen.

Camera can't focus on anything closer than 6", so no macro shots.

Camera FV-5 can't set ISO in camera but it can in video, while both were possible on the 2013.

I'm not a fan of the raised speaker grills, though they're there to help protect a face-down device's screen from scratches.

Moto Voice background is now a battery-eating blue instead of the black it was on 2013.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Motat:
Yesterday, my phone fell into the beach and got wet. Because I was sort of a noob to watered phones, I think I fried it when I should have just taken out the battery and waited for it to dry. Anyways I think it fried because I tried turning it on and the camera flash light was blinking and turning on and off and now when I tried and turn it on it doesn't do anything at all. Last night I washed it with water and alcohol to get the salt out, and let it sit in rice, and then let it sit in the sun so it'd dry this morning, then I tried turning it on again, and nothing happens at all. I'm just letting it dry more, but I assume it's completely done.

I have a galaxy nexus so there is no external SD, only Internal Memory and i'm wondering if there is ANYWAY I can restore the pictures I have on them? Some ideas i've had was unsoldering the Memory Chip and somehow connecting it to the computer? Or putting the memory chip on a Galaxy S2, and using that phone to recover the data? I am not too technical, though I do have soldering skills so I have no ideai f this is even possible. If anyone has ANY suggestions, please let me know! I was also wondering if it's possible to locate which parts were fried on my phone, and clean those parts specifically, or resolder, or rewire, or replace and get it working again?

[Member-Found Deals] Tqr:
Business owners only!

Call T-mobile and ask to be forwarded to their business department, tell them you're calling about the unadvertised 50$ a line unlimited business plan.

Verizon has the same plan as well, they're just not allowed to talk about you ask them about it; every company probably has this.
[Member-Found Deals] ronj1986:
Has anyone else done this?
[Member-Found Deals] JimSmith94:
I will be very interested to see if this works for individuals as well.
[Member-Found Deals] Tqr:
I'm an advocate of social engineering, call T-mobile and do the following:

1 ) Get kicked to a live representative

2) Tell them you were supposed to be forwarded to the business department

3) Once forwarded to the business department, tell them you were previously talking about switching all of your business lines to the unadvertised 50$ a month plan

4)Ask for plan requirements

5) Hang up until you can hash out wither you can provide what they'll want

Edit: I'm only posting about this because I think all phone carriers are scummy for having plans that they are not allowed to advertise but will give you it if you "know to ask" which is the epitome of 1%'ers giving themselves hooked up deals the general public (including small business owners/charities) do not know about.

I mean really, people who have a Paypal donation thing going can probably qualify to be on this plan as long as they are being taxed on their income.
[Member-Found Deals] jzun223:
I'm just wondering. Would this $50 business plan offer any benefits compared to their unlimited plan already, besides pricing?

Just wondering. Thanks in advance.
[Member-Found Deals] Tqr:
Yes, the advertised unlimited plans are unlimited in the most basic way; after you've used a certain amount of data you are locked to 2G until the remainder of your service month even with advertised business plans and your speed will take a huge hit.

The difference with the unadvertised plan is that you can use 4G in a truly unlimited way; there will be no throttling or speed reductions whatsoever no matter how much data you smash down.
[Member-Found Deals] Tqr:
I mean I can confirm this exact same plan exists at T-mobile, verizon.. It might even be the kind of situation where all carriers have this plan in common since at the end of the day everything is owned by mostly the same people.

The thing is there is greed no matter where you look; from a human perspective if you are the provider of something you're going to want to give you and yours the best of what you have and try to avoid giving that quality to other people to keep it 'special'

It's not legally possible to have "VIP" plans, but it is legal to have an unadvertised plan people will not know to ask about unless someone tells them; the 'normal person' is further kept away from it because it's a "business plan" and you have to prove with tax forms and other things that you are a business owner.

I just wanted to talk about this as a middle-finger to providers which throttle which is everyone and also for people who are "technically" business owners in some way; or for people who are and weren't fortunate enough to be made aware that better things exist for them
[Member-Found Deals] JimSmith94:
So is there any way to get this plan without being an official business owner? I'm switching from Sprint SERO with 500 anytime minutes and unlimited text and data to T-Mobile, but I don't want to spend $80 for unlimited data if I don't have to.
[Member-Found Deals] Tqr:
You could pick up development and become self-employed
[Member-Found Deals] JimSmith94:
Ha, I used to be self-employed and am a retired computer engineer/programmer, but it's not worth the hassle just to get free data.
[Member-Found Deals] Tqr:
Depends what you'd be using it for
[Member-Found Deals] salmanaman:
no unlimited plan

I called both carriers you mentioned they dont have such plan. Could you tell me how to get the plan on verizon please. The method you mentioned doesnt work.

I was wondering if anyone else is having the same problem as me. Whenever I connect my phone to the bmw via Aux it instantly creates a loud static/screeching noise. I tried disconnecting the phone charger and anything else that's near the Aux port but it didn't help. Bmw even changed the Aux port in the car but it didn't help. I tried the exact same cable in my Honda and it doesn't make the noise but in the bmw it does. Has anyone else had the same problem with Aux in the car? I can't even narrow it down at first i thought it was the car but that's not the case because a different phone doesn't make the noise. Then I thought it was my phone but in a different car it doesn't make the noise. And it's not the cable because I tried the same cable in the different cars and it worked fine in one and not the bmw.

HTC One M8 Aux Noise

Just seen your message regarding the htc one m8 and your e92 aux issue. Did you manage to solve it with a different cable? I tried another htc one m8, in another e92 with the normal aux cable but it was still an issue with the feedback/screeching noise (its bloody awful). Called HTC and they couldnt understand what was going on either so just discounted and blamed the cable or the car. I have a HTC one X (previous phone) and there was no issue with that and I am tempted to just use that as a mp3 player if there is no resolution. If you havnt tried a shielded cable let me know as I might borrow one from a friend to save you buying one.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
hey that would be great if you could try that. i stopped using the aux port and now just use the usb cable with the phone. my entire music collection shows up on the i drive so that's nice but sometimes i still want to play spotify so if a shielded cable works then i'll buy one too. thanks.

lol how did you know it was a e92?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] otariq:
nope, have not been able to solve the issue. I saved my music collection to the sd card (before i was just streaming from google play or spotify) and now it shows up on the I-drive when i connect with the usb cable. it'd be nice to get the aux issue figured out so i can stream spotify when there's new music I haven't put on my phone yet

Hi Guys,

Solved!! It is so nice to have 1 source of tracks again and not have that awful noise!!

I purchased this:

(link will not display as I am a "new" user!)

Search amazon for:

"Kensington Noise Reducing CarAudio Cable"

Which is currently priced at £7.95

And the noise was gone! Its blatantly obvious that it is a problem with the phone but I guess HTC will never admit anything. I tried 2 different HTC One M8's in my car and both had the same issue. I tried my phone in my Dad's E92 and it was the same (unplugged his iphone to test which played fine).

At £7.95 its worth the investment.

I've been out of the loop for a while (was still running rooted 4.1.1 until last night), it's crazy how much has changed and I pretty much forgot how to do anything with my phone. I managed to get myself up to stock, rooted 4.4.2 with SuperSu installed and KNOX disabled without pestering anyone on the forums. Do I need to unlock my bootloader to use Jrummy's Rom Installer for a custom recovery and rom?

I used Towelroot (which is amazing btw) if that makes a difference.

And this is of course an att i747.

Thanks for any help

edit: I suppose I should also ask if using Rom Installer is a good method or if GooManager is still around, or should I just flash roms through recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] crazymonkey05:
No the boot loader is fine you should be able to flash a costom recovery like always with Odin, then find your ROM (make sure its 4.3 and up) do the standard wipes and flash and you should be set......since your on 4.4.2 you can't downgrade the boot loader or modem to 4.3 or else you will hard brick
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ziondreamt:
Ah good to know, I guess I was mixing the terms boot loader and recovery. Just to confirm - none of the 4.3 ROMs would come with an incompatible modem then right?

Also any opinion on Rom Installer?

Thanks

No none should....stay away from Odin flashables though.....if you just use custom Roms 4.3 onward you should be perfectly fine

It is fixed. You can chose between 60 and 50 Hz. That's all. I tried to play in Allcast a DVD movie (25Hz) with 60 Hz with micro stuttering and on 50 Hz it was amazing to look at it. If you choose the automatic way then it will be also fixed, because the refresh rate of your TV/receiver will be checked and not the played movie.
