Holy splitting hairs Batman!

Mountains, molehills and semantics.

Go read different forums then and don't subscribe to this thread. I think OP's sideways snarky comment touched base on some important subjects, both to phones/electronics, economy, and how the Moto X was a great example of a company trying to do things domestically for once. Even if it didn't turn out well, it does deserve some attention.
[Moto X General] mtcrew:
Another problem is the fiduciary responsibility to the stock holder. They are legally bound to bring in as much profit as possible for the stock holders. The problem is not that we can produce the phones for cheap, it's that China can do it cheaper. Don't think for a second that is bringing the cost of the phone down for the consumer either. They are maximizing profit and sacrificing being a patriot. Either we strengthen our economy or our enemies economy... Unfortunately corporate America is constantly choosing the latter and our children will pay the consequences.
[Moto X General] mandrsn1:
That isn't exactly right. You do have fiduciary duties, but the business judgement rule would shield a company in a case like this to keep US production at the expense of profits.
[Moto X General] kuromusha38:
No, my point was the fake patriotism Motorola/Google used in the marketing of the original Moto X. Google/Motorola was never patriotic nor American, that boosting American manufacturing was simply a market gimmick and when that did not work well, they sold the company.

They could have just done what Apple does, "designed in California, made in China". Which works well for so many generations.
[Moto X General] mtcrew:
And why would any profit seeking business actually keep US production at the expense of profits? I don't think that is a realistic scenario regardless of the business judgment rule. These decisions come with a lot of external pressures and consequences and no one wants to be responsible for losing sales for the company.
[Moto X General] murso74:
and again i say, why would a CHINESE company use a US factory?
[Moto X General] 640k:
lol um because they're a communist country and would probably all be shot on the spot!

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Google still owns Motorola Mobility, and will until the sale to Lenovo is finalized sometime in 2015.
[Moto X General] Toys Samurai:
It's even more bothersome to me, as an American Chinese immigrant (strictly speaking, I am from Hong Kong, pre-Chinese takeover.) There's a reason why I want to leave China, and I don't know how US born Americans feel, but as someone who are very aware of what the Chinese government do to its people, I found it very unsettling to buy a phone that is made in China. Besides Motorola, almost all major Android phone makers manufacture at least some of their phones in China, and sometimes you don't get to choose. Look, among all the Android smartphone makers, the "New" Motorola is the one I like the most -- they make phones that make sense. But, a Motorola under Lenovo? I can't say I would give them 100% trust (and seeing the executives leaving one after another surely doesn't help.)

That's why I am actually quite angry about Google -- they totally messed up the chance to resurrect Motorola as an all-American smartphone maker. The launch of the 1st gen Moto X was a disaster. If they didn't give up so easily and try one more time with the new Moto X, I wouldn't be so angry. But they gave up, which kind of reaffirms that they never want to keep Motorola anyway -- they just want the patent portfolio.
[Moto X General] Jason.DROID:
It wasn't made in the U.S., only assembled with parts from China and other countries. It was a novelty really. The workers just slapped together phones and shipped them out.

Apple uses Foxconn to make their iPhones, and it's a good business strategy, moral and ethical issues notwithstanding.

The U.S. is a services-based economy.
[Moto X General] 640k:
I would consider myself an Android fanboy and even loyal to the Motorola brand, but you're way off base here when you say they "gave up". Internet forums sensationalized the Google/Moto merger as some 2nd coming of the Christ of phone manufacturers when in reality, the only reason Google purchased Motorola was for their smartphone patents. It was purely a business decision.

Meanwhile, because they had the resources, Google prompted a few pet projects to see how they could improve the Android experience by working closely with a manufacturer. Google never had "full control" over Moto Mobility and never intended to. Their partnership was never intended to create a new smartphone brand.

Google did right by offloading Moto and now the Moto brand will be just like every other Global brand that "sells" out of China. No real history, marketing through recognition only and all sourced out of the "same" parent company.
[Moto X General] Infinite Jest:
That's how a global economy works. A number of the internals of phones assembled in China are manufactured in the US.
[Moto X General] Wade-0:
In addition, I don't think the OP realizes that even the new 2014 Moto X is still being assembled in the US, by a still American company. Reality didn't fit his agenda I guess.
[Moto X General] 640k:
just curious - if I buy something from IKEA - does that technically mean it's assembled in the USA?
[Moto X General] Wade-0:
I guess that depends on what you buy, since not everything sold at IKEA requires assembly.
[Moto X General] mtcrew:
This thread is out of control lmao
[Moto X General] kuromusha38:
does putting battery in and back cover on considered assembling?
[Moto X General] devilsdouble:
Maybe it is according to some. But the thing is who cares? Besides, what's the point of this topic? I mean I know why you created this topic, but people misunderstood it! Also if this topic was created in any other section about a different phone which was not assembled in USA then the topic would be closed in few hours!

And UEFA still thinks racism can be stopped. :laugh:
[Moto X General] matt99017d:
I'd say yes. Depending on what it is. At my place of work, we manufacturer all of the components to several of Ikea's furniture lines. It then goes up north a few miles ( I'm in Oregon) and gets upholstered. I'm sure there are several aspects that aren't made in the USA. IE: glue fabric.....etc.
[Moto X General] Moscow Desire:
Well, here's something ironic....

Devices don't have an allegiance to "any" country. Neither does XDA.

Considering half of this thread is nothing more than "bashing" another country (in one form or another) and is getting out of control, then as a result this thread is closed.

Had it been simply restricted to "build quality" in countries it was assembled, that would be a different matter.

Thread closed....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flipper2006:
I have been using Sonic SOKP (which is awesome, but not supported anymore). I love all the features with 4.4.4, BUT my new car only supports TXT/Email messaging with 4.3 (unless in "L" fixes the problem). Lexus says Google broke the feature in 4.4 and it's not their fault even though google says they didn't change it, but when you go digging around on the net, you find many people with the same problem dealing with the MAP protocol.

Anyhow, I need these features to work so I am willing to try going back to 4.3. Which would be the most stable/feature riched (and still available)? Remember, i'm on Sonic SOKP right now and it's nearly perfect.

I figure this is the best place to ask about this.

Lately I've noticed a problem with my Universal. When I answer a call with it closed, I cannot hear the person who is calling. I don't know what could be causing this - has anyone else experienced it? If I answer with it closed...then open it... I can hear them just fine, same for when I answer with it open. I believe they can hear me with it closed, I just can't hear them.

It worked fine closed until around a week ago.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Willanhanyard:
Hey there,

I have been using my Note 1 (i717) since the day it came out back in 2012 and have been running KitKat on it for the past few months. I hadn't really found anything that I wanted to upgrade to until the new Moto X came out, plus I have recently had a lot of problems with my Note.

Since so many people are complaining about the smaller battery and camera, I am kind of worried about upgrading. So my question is, how do you think the Moto X is compared to my Note? I mean I assume that in 2.5 years they would have optimized the battery for larger screens, and made the cameras better, but I'm not sure.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wutang200:
I'd say camera is about the same and battery is worse than the Note 1.

The reason for me wanting one is for the design and build quality as well as the Nexus type interface and unique Moto features.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Willanhanyard:
I mean I only get slightly less than 1 hour screen in time with 12 hours total battery right now so...
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0.0:
Based on users that already have the phone, the Moto X lasts a bit more than 12 hrs with over 2 hrs screen on time. It depends what you do too

Have you installed root checker or another program to confirm that you do, in fact, have root? Start with that.

If you haven't installed a superuser app to handle permissions, I'd do that as well before trying to install TWRP.

I'll admit I had troubles installing TWRP as well, when looking at the forums, make sure you're downloading the version for your EXACT version of android and firmware, and following the instructions for the right version as well. Good luck!

I have dk31 for Z1/Z1C. Is it compatible for Z3C?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Dsteppa:
Since barely anyone has the phone, no one will be able to answer your question. I believe that in a YT video from Clove, they said that it could work. The pins have the same distance between them, but the thickness is different.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] satchef1:
I'm actually wondering if the Z1c dock might be better. We're already hearing people complain that the Z3c won't fit in the Z3c dock with a case on. The Z1c dock is designed for a phone 0.9mm thicker, so there should be plenty of room and the case should rectify the issues Clove had.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] LaManchaDK:
Dk31 works just fine, no issues here at all.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] marumari:
So people with cases on their Z3C are recommending the DK31 over the DK30 or DK32? Are any of the knock-offs any decent?

B&H has an authentic one for only $25 with free shipping, which seems to be the way to go on this, unless other people know of cheaper places to purchase it?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] LaManchaDK:
To avoid any misunderstanding I need to clarify that my previous statement is only without case.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] lcohen999:
I just grabbed a DK36 from the Sony Store

Fits like a glove with no case pull out insert , fits with case
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Huey85:
Sorry do you mean that it fits with a case but only after you've removed the dock insert?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] lcohen999:
Correct

With no case insert fits

With case insert out
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] blue_quartz:
If you are adding tempered glass protectors for the Z3C, which will probably bump the thickness to about that of the Z1C (9.5mm), then yeah I'll suggest giving the older DK31 with the wider insert a try too...
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] marumari:
So, my DK31 arrived today for my Z3C. It works well with either the Terrapin case or the Roxfit Premium case, when using no insert -- neither the thin nor thick insert work. That said, it's not perfect fit with either case, so you may want to put some felt or something inside it to make it so that the phone doesn't wobble around inside.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] aznguyphan:
How well does it fit with no case?
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Vluvstech:
Get DK32

I just got my DK32 dock and it works perfectly.

First I bought DK48, but all 4 slots were too narrow to fit in my phone, which covered with a crystal clear hard case and front glass film.

Then I returned DK48 and bought DK32 instead. This time I proved myself right. It's the one!

So my suggestion for those who need a dock for recharging: pick DK32 over DK48 if you don't use your phone naked. And I also don't think using without a case is a good choice as several users here reported broken front/back glass.

FYI, DK32 slot width.

- Narrow one: 10.0 mm

- Wide one: 10.7 mm
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] techguyone:
That's a useful post, it would be helpful to know what the thickness of all these docks are (I never knew there were so many) I know my DK48 on any insert doesn't fit a gel type case (Terrapin) & I had to use a bit of foam, it's not ideal though. I estimate the case to be around 10mm thick.

DK30

DK31

DK32: Narrow: 10.0mm Wide: 10.7mm

DK36

DK48
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] techguyone:
OK I've taken a chance and ordered the DK32, hopefully one of these inserts will work without further modding the dock with my Terrapin case.

The DK48 is fine for a bare Z3c but unless you've got a really thin case, the other inserts don't work.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] techguyone:
Well the DK32 arrived just now & its looking very much like the dock units are all the same... only the inserts are different. annnd the inserts on this one don't fit my terrapin cased z3c any better, so if you need an insert for a thicker case, you need something just a bit wider than the largest insert on the DK32. Still using the DK48 with some foam to make it fit loosely.

It's a shame you can't just buy the inserts separately from Sony as the DK32 & DK48 seem to be exactly the same apart from the inserts.
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] monsieur_debile:
I am hesitating between DK 31/32, i will use in either way, no case and with case (thin crystal case)

What would be the best dock for my use?

thanks
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] monsieur_debile:
Can you give any measurements?

I would probably use without case but adding Rhino front and rear tempered (or any brand who will release it)

either with thin case (crystal case for now)

Still a room when using without case?

It might be the one if we can use either with case or without case
[Xperia Z3 Compact Accessories] Grey_Haze:
Hello there,

i got a DK48 station and i really hate this thing. I want to give it to a friend who just got himself the Z1c. Now i saw that the Z1c is 9,5mm while the Z3c is 8,6mm thick, while the slot of the DK48 itself is 15.7mm.

Can someone please measure the slot widht of the DK32 please? Maybe my friend can get an insert that is compatible to both the slot of the DK48 AND the width of it's phone..

Best regards,

I received an ADT-1 dev kit a few days ago. It's awesome.

I can set the gamepad to pairing mode by holding BACK and HOME for a few seconds.

I can pair the gamepad to my windows 8.1 machine just fine, and it's recognized as a gamepad.

Where there's a problem is that the 2 analog joysticks are not recognized. Also the left hand side analog trigger button is recognized as an analog stick that can move in 360 degrees. And for some reason windows is calling the axes as Accelerator and Brake. It's as if it's being recognized as a game wheel.

Is there any way to make windows think it's an xbox controller??

Hello,

Next time please make a double post only after 24H without an answer, otherwise modify the one before.

CWM and TWRP recoveries don't backup and restore /preload partition, only Philz does. In that partition there are some system apps/services, without them you may have weird errors or something not working at all. The only way to restore stock ROM in your case is to reflash with Odin. Next time use Philz recovery to backup your stock ROM (enabling custom backup and including /preload) if you don't want to use Odin again
