Has anyone successfully used the Moto Hint with the 2014 Moto X?

I have a 2014 VZW Moto X and just got my Moto Hint this past Tuesday. When I tap the talk button on the Hint or say my launch phrase, Moto Voice launches but doesn't pick up any of my commands.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Mike
[X 2014 Accessories] kampana:
Turns out the Hint has a problem with the microphones, caveat emptor, I'm returning mine.
[X 2014 Accessories] gadgetg:
MIne works fine. Did you check Playstore to ensure you have latest version of Motovoice installed? Have to wait for beep after saying custom trigger phrase (or pushing button) prior to speaking.
[X 2014 Accessories] kampana:
Thanks gadgetg.

When I go to Play Store I see no option to update or uninstall, my moto voice version is 6.1.10.1, I'm not sure if that's the latest version or not.

I don't know if I have a defective unit or what, but no one can hear me unless I shout really loudly when using the Hint. In addition, both the phone and the Hint play music when I'm using Pandora...doesn't that sort of defeat the purpose of the Hint?
[X 2014 Accessories] gadgetg:
Mine streams pandora fine to Hint and no issues with Motovoice. Maybe A2DP didn't pair right?

I'd recommend following from user guide:

1. Put Hint in ear and it will connect to phone. Then press and hold MFB on Hint for 10 seconds (should hear an initial beep and after ~10 seconds two beeps). This will put you in settings menu. Press MFB after option 1 to reset device.

2. Once reset, replace Hint in case

3. In phone's setting menu, Remove Moto Hint from bluetooth menu

4. Open Motovoice and retrain phrase in a very quiet environment

5. Then remove Hint from case and repair to phone -- accept all queries. In bluetooth settings menu when you click on Moto Hint both the Phone Audio and Media Audio should be checked.

6. Press MFB and select Motovoice as default if asked.

7. Lastly, make sure the two microphones in Hint are pointing to your mouth and not your eyes when in your ear. You may have to have someone take a picture to make sure :). I did this. You may have to consciously rotate the back of Hint up a bit so it sits right in ear. I noticed this in user guide. Still comfortable, but improves microphone response immensely.

If that doesn't work, sounds like something is wrong with the Hint as mine works great.
[X 2014 Accessories] kampana:
Thanks gadget. I reset the Hint before but I did not retrain the phrase. I'll try that and will report my findings.
[X 2014 Accessories] kampana:
gadget. Thanks again for your help. I can't believe it buy it was the positioning of the microphones, they have to follow a straight line to your mouth; any deviation and my device would not work.

Now the question is how to get the Hint talking to me. I asked it a math equation and it launched calculator, but didn't read off the answer. Is there a way I can get the phone/Hint to read off the responses to my queries?

Thanks again, you're a life saver!
[X 2014 Accessories] gadgetg:
Mike,

Try using the phrase "How tall is the Eiffel Tower". After google looks up answer it will tell you the response. If you aren't hearing anything during the response then turn up the volume on the phone WHILE IT IS PLAYING BACK the response "The Eiffel Tower is 986 feet tall" and you will hear it. Not all questions have an answer, but I know this one does so try it... Or "What's the weather in Miami..." is another good one.

Also, note that you can use your trigger phrase (or MFB) to activate Motovoice and then say "Talk to Me" and then all incoming texts will be read out to you through the hint for the time period it is active.

Check out more detailed review I came across tonight here: http://www.droid-life.com/2014/10/03/moto-hint-overview-and-tour/

Hope this is helpful
[X 2014 Accessories] eric4173:
I had a similar problem. I called Moto. After the 4th call finally talked to someone who spoke English.....

Anyway... I had to reset my phone, not the hint to factory settings, and now it works as advertised and I love it. Do not love having to factory reset though
[X 2014 Accessories] kampana:
Well looks like I need to return mine :(. No one can hear me when I talk through my Hint, it's as if the first split seconds of my voice is cut off. The microphone positioning is correct and I'd rather not reset my phone for this. I'll stick with my old LG HBS700 as it can do virtually everything the Hint does, just not always listening.
[X 2014 Accessories] wera750:
I'm starting to think I'm going to return mine. It just seems no matter how hard I try, it just isn't consistent. Even when I check a thousand times to see if the microphone is aimed correctly.
[X 2014 Accessories] edlex:
I have no problems with calls or the call volume. My issue is with the volume while streaming is very low. It has to be over 50% to be able to hear and close to 100% if it's noisy. It also sounds a bit tinny but I'm guessing that's just because of how small the speaker is.
[X 2014 Accessories] Marlon41:
I paired the hint with my Moto X 2013 and no matter what I've tried it doesn's activate with 'OK Google Now'. If I press the hint I get a prompt to say a command but I thought this was supposed to listen all the time without intervention?
[X 2014 Accessories] distortedloop:
On the actual Motorola support forums they're saying that always listening mode only works with 2014 phones right now. They say they hope to bring it to other models but have no time-line.
[X 2014 Accessories] Faxman:
I got my hint today and it looks like it's going back tomorrow. I'd like to turn off most of the settings because I don't have a Motorola phone but it won't enter the settings mode by touch and hold for 8 - 10 seconds or anywhere around that.

Additionally, although in call volume is good, the streaming volume is far to low even with the phone cranked up to full volume and although my expectations for in call audio quality for the distant party were relatively low, it doesn't seem adequate to carry on much of a conversation.
[X 2014 Accessories] Marlon41:
I'm using hint with x 2013, is there a way to make all the prompts the same as moto voice? The hint prompts are very low compared to the moto voice prompts.
[X 2014 Accessories] denenatse:
A quick blow on top mic fixed mine.
[X 2014 Accessories] Project22a:
Anyone have experience with the version 2 Moto Hint? They're going for quite cheap right now and I'm hoping Motorola fixed all of the issues from the first gen.
[X 2014 Accessories] jms_uk:
LoL, actually missed your post. Can you confirm if you also have to do a quick blow on the mics regularly/semi regularly, to ensure voice pick up?
[X 2014 Accessories] denenatse:
Yes, the blowing seems to be a temp fix. Now I just give it a hard tap to activate the mic. Fail OEM IMO. such great phones though.
[X 2014 Accessories] jms_uk:
LoL, sounds crazy that we have to do these stupid things to get it to work but could you confirm a couple of things?

1. Does giving it a hard tap last "longer" than blowing hard into the mics?

2. Do you do it whilst its in your ear (ouch) or a hard tap and then put it on?

Cheers
[X 2014 Accessories] denenatse:
Unfortunately, I do it in my ear sometimes because I am driving (ouch) and I only ever have to do it once per use, but most of the time I put it in my ear the quickly pull it out after she talks to me then tap it and put it back in before she goes into standby. I do not remember why i switch to a tap rather than blow, they both work.
[X 2014 Accessories] denenatse:
regularily at first, but not anymore.
[X 2014 Accessories] ben sauyi:
I wish I could return mine, It worked only for 2 months, now the sound is too low, can not be adjusted and I am not able to hear anything. my sell phone volume is all the way up, but barely hear anything. I purchased it long time ago, and can not return it. do not know what to do.

You may want to edit your post and remove the IMEI number.

Changing your phone to English is rather simple - go to the Hermes wiki pages here, download the WWE ("world wide english") version that has bootloader version 1.09 (this is the best ROM released so far), and flash your Hermes according to the instructions that come with it.

If you want to have the ability to later change to version with a CID other than "QTEK_001", change your device to SuperCID first. If you search for "SuperCID", you'll find a few threads explaining how this is done.

Okay, so juliano6666: do make your Hermes SuperCID first, because otherwise your only upgrade options will be back to future German O2 ROMs...

Long time reader and tinkerer, but first time poster... This is a two-part thread:

I picked up a cheap used Samsung Galaxy S4 phone, hoping to unlock it and use it. When I received it, it was a SM-S975L, which I can barely find any information on:

Model number: SM-S975L

Baseband version: S975LUDUANB1

Kernel version: 3.4.0-2485535 se.infra@R0210-10 #1 Tue Feb 4 17:57:30 KST 2014

Build number: JSS15J.S975LUDUANB1

SE for Android status: SEPF_SM-S975L_4.3_0017

Product code: SM-S975LZKATFN

Current firmware on my phone: www DOT sammobile DOT com/firmwares/3/?download=28755

Part 1: Custom ROM.

I want to use a Google Edition ROM instead of the bloatware that comes on carrier devices. I'm unable to find a recovery for the SM-S975L, much less a custom ROM though. Is anyone out there that would entertain the idea?

PARt 2: SIM Unlock.

With my sim in the phone, a SIM Unlock code screen doesn't pop up on its own. I typed #7465625*638*# into the dialer and it did finally appear. I was able to successfully sim-unlock it once. But after a phone reboot, the phone was re-locked and the sim unlock code I previously used no longer works. Has anyone ever had this happen? I would like a permanent solution to sim-unlock.

Thanks!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lilmul123:
Another purchaser of the S975L here. Thought $249 was a great deal for this phone, but got home and realized that it's actually a really locked down phone. No permanent way to unlock it (unless you own it for a year in which case Tracfone will unlock it), bootloader is locked, no one has developed a custom ROM for it, and the complete tethering framework has been removed (so not even rooted tethering apps will work). It's a good bet that Straight Talk will never update the firmware on it either. That last one is a huge bummer because Android 4.3 is *okay* for now, but KitKat has been out for a while, and Lollipop will be ported very soon. It's fantastic hardware gimped by awful software. A shame really. I'll probably hang on to this phone for a little while since it's a definite improvement over my old iPhone 4S, but I'd like to move to something I have a little more control over.

The only solace I have is that it's easily rootable using TowelRoot.

If you have the unlock code and root, then follow this.

1. install samsung phone info tools from the market. Run it and allow super user access on it.

2. Press menu and go to secret codes, and let it load.

3. Once generated scroll until you find 7465625*638* you should see two. One that says unlock and other says lock.

4. Select the one that says lock. Press it and select "launch 0" on MCC/MNC field enter your carriers MCC/MNC code.(google it if you dnt know it) on the Control Key enter unlock code. Press ok.

5. Select the 7465625*638* that has unlock on it, press launch 0, enter unlock code. Press ok.

6. Hit thanks, device should be unlock with no neet to reboot.

Sm-s975l unlock info

This model is permanatly unlockable through Straighttalk after a 1yr of active service ( If you are late adding time & if your phone deactivates, you must begin the 1yr requirement from the begining )

But good News there are 2 compatible Models of the S4 you can use to Customize your SM-S975L.

Most ROMS are compatible. You will need to have your Device "ROOTED" with Custom Recover Software.

Just my advice use TWRP as Cmod tends to Brick Devices " Just from Personal Experience "

The I9505 - Forums General Location

The Most Compatible ROM for the SM-S975L was Created by a Very Talented Developer "The Sickness"

Download V11 4.4.2 & the Mod File. Now Boot into Recovery Flash the Rom 1st following the instructions provided on the download page allow the 1st boot up to complete. Name your phone & all that other fun setup info Stuff. Then reboot into Recovery, & do a advance wipe on Cache & Delvic lol & you can now flash the MOD pack, I recommend choosing the Ktweaker OC Kernel by Ktoonz you can pplay around with the other Mods ;) but be warned the S5 Mods Tend to cause device errors with settings/menu/&keyboard. This rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2683507

DONT LET ANYONE TELL YOU THE INSANE HYBRID 4.4.4 ROM UPGRADE IS BETTER ITS NOT THAT ROM IS BLOATED AND SLOW AS DIRT

There aren many ROMs to choose from icecream sanwich to marshmellow But none as good as "Sickness's" INSANE KITKAT Versions Vary but the Only Rom that comes even Close is SPIKE LABS 4.4.4 GAMING ROM with kernel juicer but its still a bit jittery at times when the GPU is pushed & games are Drawing Heavily On Your Device..

As far as the Baseband is concerned you can remove it and attempt to upgrade it Via ABD pull & push. " Aquire ABD & fastboot files & launch CMD W/ADMIN RIGHTS" & it is possible to use ABD CMDs to remove & apply another Basebamd but this could super brick your Device if it is not unlocked.

I was in the same boat, had an unlock code, it worked one time then after a reboot it would not accept the unlock code. I happened upon this post (while I was searching for the stock ROM to reload on it), and decided "what the hell let me try these steps"....it works. I don't mind going through these steps on each reboot. Infact I made it a bit easier, I installed Shortcut Master (Lite) and made two short cuts, one for the lock and one for the unlock.

This phone is unlockable by design. The only way Straight Talk gets around the" unlock law " is they offer you a credit towards another phone, my offer was $100. I have a friend that works for Samsung and he researched it at work, talked to the tech's and was
