[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
And have you checked the Device Manager for driver errors? If it is not displaying at all on any PC, with any cable, on any port, then it's quite possible the phone's USB port is damaged. And yes, it can be damaged and still charge as the charge pins and pins for connection of this type are usually different or have multiple parts. I never have luck with these kinds of HTCs on Win 8.1, despite knowing about every trick in the book for loading drivers for phones. It only works in Win 7 for me. It is recommended to only use 2.0 ports, though I never have luck with either on 8+.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syedbilal093:
Thanks alot sir. You are right that my charging port is maybe damaged. Will figure it out tomorrow. It is not appearing in Device Manager as you described. Yeah Windows 8.1 is not made for us :D it does not detect device. I also used windows 8 but my pain still lasts. I am using 2.0 ports not 3.0 but i am now sure that my usb port is damaged. Will repair it soon & if the problem persists, i will contact you soon. Thanks alot for your amazing response. Expert!:thumbup::)

Charging Pins & Connecting Pins Difference.?.

I want to ask one thing sir. I am confused. Don't know about hardware much. So, i want to ask that how are the pins different, like you said charging pins and other sort of pins. I mean, i can charge from the same port and it shows that charging port is somewhat OK. But when connecting to a pc, same pins are communicating with my pc, so thay should have worked on pc. But they didn't. I haven't explained fine but i hope that you will understand what i want to ask.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Some pins are strictly for charging while others handle data transfer. So that's how it can charge, yet not connect.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syedbilal093:
Thank You Very Much Sir. I will get them repaired soon.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syedbilal093:
Hey man. I have repaired my charging port because my Sensation XL wasn't charging. I got them repaired. Charging's fine but still not detected in my pc. Tried another pc but no result. I still think that i have to repair those connecting pins because it wont show in my Device Manager. What are they named? Are they are Connecting pins or some other name. Don't have an idea about hardware. What should i say to the repairer? :( please help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
If they replaced the charging port and it's still not working, I really don't know what to tell you...Sorry. I've never had or worked on a phone with a good working USB port with a good cable not at least try to load some kind of driver, even if it isn't the right one.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syedbilal093:
Ok i will try to do the best. Anyways, thanks for the support #esotericchaos
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syedbilal093:
Solved the problem #esotericchaos. My connecting pins connection to the main board was missing. So the person to whom i gave it, put back the prints of connecting pins and then the reading in Ohm meter was great, fine enough. Now i will flash a rom soon. Thanks man. Thanks alot for the help. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
I KNEW something was wrong with the USB port. :D I was feeling kind of bad that you might have spent money on a repair that wasn't needed! Glad all is well though! :victory:

Yeah but still dead. :D. Will fix it soon.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syedbilal093:
The software is gone. Will flash a stock RUU to it after making it S-off.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syedbilal093:
I didn't understood one last thing. My sensation XL is s-on with unlocked bootloader so i have to make it s-off to install custom ROMs. But yesterday i installed King Cobra ROM to see what happens wben we install ROMs on s-on. I thought that it wont boot. But #esotericchaos, it booted and running fine. But how? I am s-on. How a custom Rom can boot on s-on.:rolleyes:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] syedbilal093:
One more thing. My lcd light is blinking and some weird lines came on my lcd when i use camera application. I also installed camera 360 but same issue. Using King Cobra ROM. Tell me is it hardware issue ? LCD ? See the screenshot of my lock screen menu. Same lines wave when i open camera app. But when i unlock the screen, no lines appear anywhere. They are just on camera app and on lock screen. Lcd also blinks in bootloader slightly.

[Moto X Q&A] emmanueldmc:
Ok, not sure if this is a software problem or hardware, the fact is that when taking a photo in a dark room with the flash, it comes out way too white, as if reflecting light, the process focus with flash and photo capture is too fast, so the flash intensity is not measured in and out very white photos ...

I'm not sure if this problem arose after the upgrade to 4.4.4 tmo, but I do not remember this happening in android 4.4.2

Here are some examples:

This photo was taken with Moto X, same conditions, same distance, and in a completely dark room.

And this with a Samsung Galaxy S3

All these with Moto X

Well, what you think? is a software problem or hardware? (or is it just my moto x)? ... to you the camera works well?
[Moto X Q&A] emmanueldmc:
anyone?
[Moto X Q&A] emmanueldmc:
bump, I'm just the only one?
[Moto X Q&A] aviwdoowks:
It must be 444. If I energize the flashlight before I call the cam the cam will not open. Yet the constant flash is not constant, but only flashes with the shutter. Don't we need a flash to be on before the shutter?
[Moto X Q&A] emmanueldmc:
Exactly! You're absolutely right, that's the problem the shutter takes the picture while the flash ... any possible solution?
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
Low light photos have been a problem on the Moto X from day one. I find keeping HDR off is helpful in low light.
[Moto X Q&A] emmanueldmc:
That's well known, but what about the photos that there is no light ?, that's when the flash is used, and now this problem arose unusable leaving the camera in environments with no lighting.
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
Try a camera app from play store, to see if it's the same.
[Moto X Q&A] devilsdouble:
This was the first thing I noticed after upgrading to 4.4.4. Quite wondering that very few people have mentioned this so far. All others have actually praised it, that it got so bright, yeaaaaa, heck!

It might be better for shooting from a very big distance, as now I see that my whole 14x12' room gets nicely lit up when the flash is on, but for close to medium range distance it's just unusable. I would take the older dimmed flash 100 out of 100 times than this bleeding one.
[Moto X Q&A] aviwdoowks:
On 444 they are all the same.
[Moto X Q&A] emmanueldmc:
It's the same, is even worse, as the moto x only focus with the stock camera app, any other camera app does not focus with the flash, it only shows the light and take the picture without focusing before.

Unfortunately, You're Goddamn Right

Exact the same thing. is even worse, as the moto x only focus with the stock camera app, any other camera app does not focus with the flash, it only shows the light and take the picture without focusing before.
[Moto X Q&A] emmanueldmc:
The application of the motorola camera update today in google play, as usual, this error still persists. :crying: :mad:
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
What would solve it and have you communicated your thoughts to motorola?
[Moto X Q&A] emmanueldmc:
They think everything is resolved only by deleting the application data or restoring the Cellphone, which I've already done and does not work.

I am using Summiters old 2.26 ROM, and have to send back in the phone, so I want to flash it to the HTC Rom from the HTC site, but just wondered if that would have issues or not.

My IPL SPL is 2.24 and the HTC ROM is dated newer then mine.

Think I will run into problems?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] _Nomad_:
You could always flash the original rom with the noid RUU if you run into anything. Just place the nk.nbf in the same directory. And might I suggest that you CID-relock your phone prior to sending it to a service center as that procedure usually voids the warranty.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Brese:
Wao

Good info thanks, although I will admit to being a noob at this so should I re-lock the device, then run the htc rom?

Your advice on the nk.nbf is strictly based on the HTC rom not loading?

Regarding the relock, where can I find a relock tool? I remember ages ago downloading and running an app called lockwiz, is that right?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Zzan:
yeah, lokiwiz does the unlocking but if you didn't save the output file I don't know how you are going to re-lock. Doubt they will even check that as long as you have a stock rom on the device though, so you should be ok.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Brese:
So Then...

The original thought should suffice, using the stock ROM from the HTC should load ok.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] weathersinc:

Would the nk.nbf file pretain to me? If so where do I find it and how do I use it?

Enough about that, I was wondering if that charging dock was compatible with the Z2, it seems like they are all exactly the same product just with different cradles (I don't know what to call them) for the different depths of the phones.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trainerKEN:
so, I have a couple Sony cameras that have the wifi/NFC feature..... which is great because I can transfer full res photos to my Note 3 wirelessly either wifi OR NFC (NFC method is a little faster). It's a great feature because there are times/situations when the Note 3's camera just can't capture the scene (especially in low lighting environments).

But the problem I'm having is... EVERY single time after opening the app, my phone stops receiving service from the carrier (Wind Mobile, I'm in Canada). I can't make calls, text or get internet/data service. Yet, the "4G" and reception tree would indicate that I have service. The only way to solve the problem is to restart/reboot my phone... which can be a nuisance :mad:

I'm wondering if anyone (by any chance) have had this issue, and if it's a bug with the app... who or where can I report this too

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floepie:
So, I'm just wondering about the advantage of active notifications over a multi-colored LED? I mean, the LED continues to blink without any user intervention, while the active notification requires user intervention to display. Sure, the IR sensors used to wake the device are incredibly useful. It would have been great to have both the IR sensors and a LED. Or, are the active notifications shown for an indefinite time until the user acknowledges them?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cam30era:
My (admittedly non scientific) experience indicates that the active notifications for email or SMS seems to stop after 15 minutes or so. Of course a wave of the hand shows it again. But I too remain unconvinced of the usefulness vs LED.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floepie:
OK, maybe an Xposed module could keep those notifications blinking until the user shuts them off. I can easily see this happening.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Galinha1:
Well i go back and forth with this issue..

I have the Z2 and new moto x, and before i was using nexus 5 and motoX , and cant tell you which one is better for sure.. When i use the muti colored led phone, i miss the active notifications, and the opposite when i use the active notifications . With led setup , you still have to touch to know what is it , even if you know that the color green for eg. is for sms. and yellow for em-mail. Same goes for active notifications, you see the icon on the screen representing the app that has a notification and still have to touch for more details, often for me the details are not helpfull , i still have to unlock and pull down the notification bar to see what is about. And with led , you dont have to look more carefully at the screen to see what app is, you can see the color by far or with your peripheral vision .

Well, i still think that the popup notification with android L and the iphone are better for me, but they end up calling to much attention to the screen when you receive a message , so it's not discreet like a led or active notification and people around will look every time something appear.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
It doesn't require user interaction, it shows up when you get a new notification and go away after a while, which then you can still show it again with a wave.

Notification LED doesn't allow you to quickly read part of read the text message or see who it's coming from (unless you use LightFlow and set a specific color and pattern for each person, and I'm not going to go to that length to manually adjust and remember all that), which is the point of Active Display.

It's better in it's own way, RGB LED have it's own advantages, they are different things. If you prefer RGB LED, buy a Nexus.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devilsdouble:
The answer is rather simple actually. Active Display is not better than a coloured LED notification.

With LEDs you can set different colours for different purposes, which are cool, and the most advantageous thing is you can see it from distance.

With Active Display people generally say that you can see the incoming text or a missed call info just by tapping on the icon, true, but how many times do you not unlock the device actually? I at least do it all time. So if you are actually unlocking the device most times then what's the benefit of having Active Display over LED? None, at least that's what I think.

When I came to Moto X (2013) from S4, I loved the Active Display, I am not saying that I don't now, but as of this moment I don't find this option as useful as LED notifications, not at all.

Does anyone know or did anyone hear of these in-stock at BBY?
