Nothing to brag about because you got burnt, get your money back.

I paid 149 for mine brand new from best buy, why would you want to buy an older model for the same price and it's used. The label is real easy to bypass on those boxes, I can't believe dude never opened it, highly unlikely. And you definitely shouldn't even have a live considering you own an s5. I had the gear 2 first and used it with my m8 and it's still a toss up to which I would rather have. The gear2 has way more features , looks way nicer and feels way better on your wrist. And bands look better cuz the gear2 don't have the g4y 80s rendition of a futuristic style cover over the band where it meets the watch. Looks like a wheel cover on a car from back to the future.... I'm still happy with the live though because there is to much you don't have access to on the G2 with not having a Samsung phone. If you can I would seriously consider rocking the gear2 since you are spending only 50 more for it. Much smarter choice, you want to be smart right? Good luck!
[Samsung Gear Live] william58:
Wow! What a overall putdown on Gear Live. Best Buy is currently selling them for $200.

Apparently you never read the many reviews where Gear Live was rated above the Gear 2. AND your comment saying it is an older model when in fact it is the newest one just released a couple months ago

Also the Gear Live will have more software to choose from with Google and developers than limited by Samsung software.

Do your homework and research dude.

And your comment saying you don't believe it was new is off base... mine has never been open as the seal was still intact, plastic still on the face, wrap around charger etc and not a scratch anywhere, the new welcome screen when you first turn it on AND the receipt / letter from Google:

I never said I don't like the gear live I just said I like the extra features that come with the 2. Camera, IR blaster with tv remote, speaker, stand alone media player, dialer and voice calls right from the watch. I don't know how the live could be better when it's lacking all of that, I agree however about the open ended development of course, but it's limited to its hardware of course, more frustrating than anything is I've never heard a good explanation as to why they couldn't implement all those features I mentioned on the live, it would be awesome to have all that on a straight Google platform.

Is smart watch worth that much money? I don't understand the benefits of smart watches.
[Samsung Gear Live] radoo7701:
It's a nice convenience but not a necessity. I like to be able to check my notifications without having to pull my phone out of my pocket every time. With the latest firmware update you can still get them over WiFi even if you're out of range of the Bluetooth.

I also use mine to control my Bluetooth devices. With a headset or my car stereo I can control my music or answer calls. If you don't mind talking to your watch the Hello Google feature gives even more control. (I always felt weird talking to my phone or watch.)

You can also tell time with it.:D

And get the latest weather.

and it's better to get a gear live for 150$ or buy one of those china smartwatch ..
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
I have an XT1060 (Verizon) Moto X, unlocked and rooted with TWRP/SuperSU.

I need to restore my texts from a nandroid that was created while I was on 4.4.2. I am now on 4.4.4. I have Titanium B/U PRO and used it to restore the texts by:

1) Checking Migrate System Data in preferences; and

2) Extracting Data Only from Phone/Messanging Storage.

I did this b/c I read on other forums here on XDA that is what I need to do. However, when I do that I can't receive text messages any longer. I can send them but none get through to me.

One other thing - when I extract the texts from my 4.4.2 nandroid, they all show up fine and I can send and receive text but Titanium B/U says to reboot to complete the process. Once I reboot, that is when I can no longer receive texts.

Seems to me like even though I check data only, Titanium B/U is messing with the messaging app.

Any help would be appreciated!!!!!!
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
Ok so I returned back to the 4.4.2 system using my nandroid and all my texts are there but I don't see how to back them up using Titanium B/U. I was thinking I could do that and maybe restoring texts from a Titanium B/U instead of a nandroid would work better?
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
I eventually figured out how to make the Titanium B/U and did that while I was on 4.4.2. Then I restored from my 4.4.4 nandroid using TWRP and tried to restore just the Phone/Messaging Storage (data only) from my 4.4.2 Titanium B/U. The texts restored, but again, I can send texts but not receive them.

Can anyone help me with this or point me to a forum where I may be able to get help?
[Moto X Q&A] dtg7:
- maybe try solution here: http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...ssages-everything-else-about-phone-works-fine (plug sim in another phone, use texts, plug it back in this phone)

- experiment more. try backing up and restoring both app and data. try clearing app data before restoring stuff. you say everything works fine just before rebooting, maybe do another TB backup before rebooting (but after the first restore) and then restore this second backup after the restart. etc.
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
Thanks, I will try that and report back.

Good idea! Thanks for the suggestions, I will report back on what works.
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
UPDATE

:

I returned to my 4.4.2 nandroid, disabled the Xposed Installer, flashed the stock recovery, unfroze all of the apps I had frozen, including Motorola OTA, and unrooted. Then I took the 4.4.4 OTA again and had all of my texts, woot!!

HOWEVER, I still can't receive texts!!!!!! I found this thread on AC and it seems like others have this problem too after taking the 4.4.4 OTA. Drats. At least now I know it isn't TiBU.

What could possibly be causing someone not to receive texts but able to send texts?!?!?!?!?!
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
Tried that after I took the OTA a second time and it didn't work :(:(:crying:
[Moto X Q&A] dtg7:
previously only heard of not being able to send texts, and that's usually a wrong service center number setting. even then you could always receive. From the link you mentioned and from further googling it seems this issue is exclusive to Verizon (are you on Verizon?) and as I have the T-Mobile xt1053 on 4.4.4 I can report no such issues. This suggests a network incompatibility bug. The weird thing is it seems that doing a factory data reset restores full SMS functionality for a while, until it stops suddenly. To me seems something to investigate.

Q: What happens if you use Hangouts as your SMS app? worth a try. if that doesn't work and you are on Verizon then as I see it your choices are:

- stick with 4.4.4 and investigate til the next update is released. L should be coming soon. To investigate you'll probably need root back.

- revert back to 4.4.2 and wait for L. BUT tread with caution here. I've read your other posts where you claim no problems nandroiding back and forth. just be sure the conditions are still the same.
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
Yes, I am on Verizon.

I don't suddenly stop receiving texts. I receive text fine until I try to restore my texts from a nandroid or titanium backup - then I stop receiving texts. If I restore the texts from an SMS Backup and Restore xml, then I never lose the ability to receive texts.

So it seems to me that whatever TiBU is restoring is more than just the texts. In the TiBU listing, what I am restoring is labeled as Phone/Messaging Storage (SMS/MMS/APN). I select data only as opposed to app + data and then in preferences I checked Migrate System Data, which I read on XDA and the TiBU site needs to be checked if you are restoring from an earlier version of the OS, which I am. From all I have read, APNs should only affect the ability to send MMS, not SMS, but I lose the ability to receive any texts at all when I restore my texts from the nandroid or TiBU. I will try next to select app + data and see what happens.

Also when I downgraded back to my 4.4.2 nandroid and then retook the 4.4.4 OTA, I never had the ability to receive texts. I will do that again and this time do a factory reset to see if I regain the ability to receive texts, which I should. Before I retook the 4.4.4 OTA what I was doing was switching b/t a 4.4.2 nandroid and a 4.4.4 nandroid.

Do you know the difference b/t upgrading via the OTA and upgrading via the Motorola Device Manager? IIRC the former is a patch and the latter is more like RSDLite? I think I will try the MDM next time I downgrade to 4.4.2.

Still can't receive texts :(

I would be fine with not restoring my texts if there were some way to merge all of my texts. The problem with having multiple texts backups is that I can't go back to a text from an earlier version of android without backing up, restoring the old version, then restoring the newest version again.

IIRC, motorola migrate is the only way to merge texts but I need a 2nd motorola device to do it. I hope Verizon gets the Motorola Nexus and then I will have a 2nd Motorola device.

Thanks for all of your suggestions!

After I eventually give up on trying to restore my texts from 4.4.2, I will make screen shots of my downgrades. IME, Q9Nap has been correct 100% of the time. I think the reason the myth about unlocked bootloaders bricking when downgrading their systems became accepted as truth around here is b/c people were trying to downgrade their partition tables as well as their systems. Trying to downgrade your partition table will result in a blank screen on boot into system. You can recover from this, though and it doesn't brick your device. I think people would see the blank screen and not know how to get into bootloader mode and think they bricked.
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
So I downgraded again to my 4.4.2 nandroid and took the 4.4.4 OTA again. Then restored my texts from my 4.4.2 nandroid and same problem. Then I did a factory reset and problem went away, but so did my texts (of course).

The problem - i.e., I can send but not receive texts - is the same whether I am using the native messaging app or hangouts. The one thing that will cure the problem is to wipe the data from the Phone/Messaging Storage, which of course wipes out all of my texts. So the source of the problem, whatever it is, is in the data that TiBU restores to my phone.

However, when I restore the texts from SMS Backup and Restore, I don't get the problem so whatever is causing the problem it is specific to using TiBU to restore my texts. SMSB/U&R though, not only can't restore all of my texts, it leaves some of them looking like they have the wrong date.

I think for now what I am going to do is wait until I get a 2nd Motorola device and then I will see if I can do a merge using Motorola Migrate.
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
My latest attempt was to downgrade back to 4.4.2 and upgraded every single app that wasn't on the latest version as well as installing the latest version of Hangouts and Google Voice. I consistently could send and receive texts using both the native messaging app and hangouts. And I could make calls using the native dialer, hangouts and google voice.

Then I made a nandroid, flashed stock recovery, unrooted and took the 4.4.4 OTA again. Still the same problem - I can make/receive calls and send texts, but I can't receive texts!!!!!

I am sure if I root and then wipe the texts from the Phone/Messaging Storage using TiBU the problem will be gone, but so will my texts!!!! Sigh.

Oh, and I just figured out that I am not getting my voicemail indicators on the status bar either!!

Edited - And when I dial my GV number, instead of routing it to Hangouts, the call gets routed to my Verizon number. Is that supposed to happen?
[Moto X Q&A] dtg7:
That is the key question though, isn't it, and I couldn't help going back to it. I was thinking, what if it's being caused by something as idiotic as memory management. The only (simple) reason a phone would refuse to accept an SMS would be if it thought it didn't have enough space to accept it. This should never happen since SMS are so small, but googling my hunch I did find that there is a precedent for such a thing, although it was a few years ago ( https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4991 ). Maybe it's reared it's ugly head again with the 4.4.4 update for you guys on Verizon.

Here's how you can test this theory. While on 4.4.4 after you do the TiBU restore of all your SMS exactly like you've done many times so far, this time don't clear app data or anything but instead just go to the Messaging app and select the option to delete all threads. This should just delete the SMSs themselves while leaving other files system or otherwise untouched. Then try sending yourself a text.

If that doesn't work you can also try uninstalling some apps to clear space.
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
First, thanks for your help again.

I am not clear what you mean by memory - do you mean RAM or internal storage? With computers, it is clear to me that memory = RAM but when it comes to cell phones, many people use memory to mean internal storage, which is equivalent to the hard drive of a computer.

Prior to restoring my old texts, I have close to 24GB of free internal storage. When I restore my old texts using TiBU, I have 17.1GB of free internal storage. TiBU says to reboot after I restore my old texts. Prior to rebooting, I can receive texts fine. After rebooting, I show 17GB of free internal storage, but cannot receive texts.

When I delete all of the threads, my free internal storage returns to 17.1GB, but I still can't receive texts. Then upon reboot, my free internal storage remains at 17.1GB and I still cannot receive texts.

When I go to settings, apps, messaging app and clear data and clear cache, still 17.1GB of free internal storage and can't receive texts. When I go into TiBU and wipe data from Phone/Messaging Storage, same thing. Upon reboot, still only 17.1GB of free internal storage but I can receive texts!!!!

Also, when I restore my texts using SMS Backup and Restore, I am able to receive texts but the texts do not restore fully.

If by memory you mean RAM, I know how to check the RAM available on my Windows PC, but idk how to check that for an android system.

Who at google would I report my problem to? They may not care if it doesn't affect Android L but it is still worth reporting IMO.
[Moto X Q&A] dtg7:
Yeah I was referring to internal storage not RAM. Of all the complaints in that link only one suggests having free storage in GB, most were around 20 MB. Despite the difference you saw between TiBU and SMS Backup, the peculiarity of not being able to receive texts had me convinced your issue was similar to all those people in that link.

if you want to continue this path of attack I'd suggest two more things. in the messaging app settings there is option to manage SIM messages. If you have anything in there you could try deleting them. Also maybe voicemail is in on it too, so you could try trimming that.

As for the TiBU/SMS Backup discrepancy, my original suggestion before all this storage talk was going to ask if you'd tried Not selecting the option to Migrate System Data in TiBU. if not, you could try that. system data can be finicky when restoring.

Aside from these things i'm at a loss at what else it could be. Sorry couldn't be more help. I wish some of the people complaining at the Verizon website could jump over here and share their experiences of what they've tried. There's quite of a few there https://community.verizonwireless.com/thread/832346?forceNoRedirect=true
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
Right but did you see that even when I deleted the texts and wiped the data from the text messaging app it did not restore my free internal storage to 24GB - it remained at 17.1GB. It should have gone back to 24 GB since that is what it was before I restored my texts.

Says no SIM card messages.

Will do.

Thanks - I will register over there and point them over here!!
[Moto X Q&A] Wansanta:
I wiped cache and dalvik cache and the free internal storage went to 17.2GB. Then I did a factory reset and it went to 17.8GB, which I found strange since it should go back to 24GB.

I am going back to the 4.4.2 nandroid and will double check that what I posted before was correct.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamal Ahmed:
I'm on stock rooted Sense --401.4 and I want to update to --401.5 version. I have s-off, and custom recovery, and am rooted.

Although I have a constant "system update" notification on my notification bar, I really cannot update because of the custom recovery. Is there any fully stock version of the latest ROM available which I can flash to update? Mike1986 hasn't provided it yet. Is there any other way to update easily? I really don't want to switch to custom ROMs for the update, and I really don't want to factory reset my phone right now.

Is there any way we can flash OTA update .zips? If yes, I really cannot find them on XDA, so can anyone guide me to them (and a guide on how to flash them?). Thank you.
