[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] streetbond:
Hi.I have just bought htc one and I'm seeing little lag in games like a stutter.What apps would you suggest to make it faster? What are according to you the best apps for speeding up ram, best battery saver, and best way to speed up internet? Thank you for any help,!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bdizzle1686:
There really is no BEST, but from personal experience, I can recommend a few... 1st of all, are you rooted, S-off , have unlocked boot loader, or are u stock? As far as the TOP , MOST will agree on Greenify.... It's a BEAST of a battery saver if you're rooted and have xposed , but I can also use some of it's features if you're stock... As far as stock goes, I'd say Juice Defender Ultimate, and Clean Master........ Also DS Battery Saver is good,but works best with Xposed
[ONE General] rant:
Sounds like a great setup, but why use a $350 phone when a $150 Nexus 7 would do just as well and have a larger screen? I recently began using an 8" LG G Pad as a permanent carputer and couldn't be happier, but I'm going to take a look at some of the options you've detailed here, so thanks for that. I leverage Tasker pretty heavily for automating tasks when the car turns on, turns off, etc.
[ONE General] CravingMender9:
Simple reason:

I had a 350$ phone that I got for free just lying around as a spare phone. I don't have a spare tablet ;)

So essentially, the only amount I spent just for this is the $7 Bluetooth ODB2 connector.

Also, I didnt want to modify the stock Head Unit. So I have a stand (I added wireless charger for my note 3. Will make OPO wireless charging capable later) on my upper dash which can hold a phone. A tablet will be too big for that and will block my view out of windshield. Once I get some more money, I will get the Metra dash kit and put in a tablet. This setup is what I have for now :)
[ONE General] rant:
Gotcha, certainly makes sense. Good luck with your setup. Having run mine for a few weeks now, can't imagine going back to a stock head unit. Waze, Spotify, Pandora, having my full music library, etc. can't be beat.
[ONE General] muzhik:
i stopped by, hoping for pics.... (nice setup btw)
[ONE General] CravingMender9:
Ha, Thanks :D

Well, its just the OPO on a phone stand on my dash. Mostly it is the use of various software to make it do what I want.

But I guess I CAN put up pics of HUD and a video about the Raspberry Pi Backup module.

I'll try to make it this week and upload.
[ONE General] LarsPT:
Yes please, that'd be cool :)

I'm also curious about that OBD2 thing you bought. Does it mean I can get that too? :) I have a Toyota Yaris :p

If you could post some pics and share some quick instructions, would be great!

Cheers m8!
[ONE General] CravingMender9:
This is what I got from eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/131033435850?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT

It was $2 off when I purchased it. So I got for $6.94 ;)

The construction is FLIMSY and the covering breaks easily. But it can be easily fixed with super glue or something. I kept mine open as the LEDs inside give a nice glow-at-night effect to my underdash. I'll show that in video that I'll mostly try to make before this weekend. :D

What year is your Yaris? All cars after 98 year models (i think) need to have OBD2 compulsorily. It'll mostly be near your steering wheel side underdash, on the left near the fuse box.
[ONE General] LarsPT:
It's recent, it's the '10 model. I'll look into it when I go back home after work :D

Cheers!

So you couldn't sell the phone and get the tablet pocketing the extra $200. I understand if it was a condition of getting it free. Also, you can do most of this with your primary phone and a nice car mount. That lets you use the device when you aren't in the car...
[ONE General] CravingMender9:
The phone was a gift. So no, wouldn't sell it. Primary phone is used by other people in the car to play music/games etc.

Not a good idea to continuously mount and remove that while I am using navigation and there are people in the car for whom nothing else matters other than playing Candy Crush or facebook .

I do use the device when I am not in the car. As I had mentioned before, it is just hooked to a phone stand/holder.

Also, let me clarify, the main reason for posting it here is since I used the OPO. You can use anything, any phone / tablet. I am not saying you have to use this phone only. I just happen to have a spare one, that's all. I wanted to show one more thing that we can use any phone/any tablet for. It was just an experiment.
[ONE General] CravingMender9:
I'll try to get the video today once I get home :)
[ONE General] lugose:
Sorry, didn't mean to dump. It is cool, but expensive for most. I look forward to seeing the pictures.
[ONE General] CravingMender9:
Apologies for the shaky video. Never done a video before, so was a bit nervous.

Sorry, I know this post is old but this is the only reference I could find with someone seemingly having used an OPO (OnePlus One - I hope you mean) successfully with an ELM327 OBD2 Bluetooth adapter.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] W18WAR:
Hi,

In order to CyanogenMOD you will need to do the following :

Root the device and install a custom recovery

download the cyanogenmod zip file from the right thread

you will also have to install the relevant GAPP's folder (normally listed on the CyanogenMOD thread)

Boot into recovery mode

Do a wipe of the device and then install the cyanogenMOD zip file

Wiat for that installation to complete

Install the GAPP's Zip File

Reboot and Enjoy CyanogenMOD goodness !

[X 2014 General] Wutang200:
Do you guys think there'll be a surge of orders from Nexus users who don't want to upgrade to a phone as big as the Nexus 6?

The new Moto X is the closest to a Nexus phone now (not phablet).
[X 2014 General] cbsevenfifty:
I think it's more likely that they stick with the Nexus 5 and pray Google comes back down to earth next year. I can't imagine that releasing a 5.9" phone as your one and only is going to pay off.
[X 2014 General] cb474:
Yeah, I think the Moto X might pick of a few Nexus users (myself included) if the next Nexus device really only offers a 6" screen. But I suspect the reasons people want a Nexus device go deeper than that. The 1st Gen. Moto X got almost no development. If you want the roms and the hacks and all that, nothing is like the Nexus (and the Moto X is far from 2nd runner up, in terms of amount of development). So the near stock rom on the Moto X is a bit of a mirage. I'm still not sure I'm ready to make the jump and lose out on the development options (as well as the increased control and potential privacy offered by something like Cyanogen, over any manufacturer maintained rom).

Also the price on the Nexus has always been at least $100 lower than what a Moto X goes for. That's going to be a big deciding factor. Nothing talks like money.

But for people who aren't into the roms and just like the stock Android experience and don't care about price so much, maybe some of them will jump ship from the Nexus.
[X 2014 General] Project:Frankenphone:
Severely doubt a 5.92" screen... 5.2" is more likely. Otherwise, the other released and confirmed specs look good. Just depends on battery life for me.
[X 2014 General] cbsevenfifty:
Literally everything is pointing to a 5.9" screen. No one is even acknowledging that a 5.2" device is even in the works any more. More likely the 5.2" phone everyone was talking about was the Droid Turbo.
[X 2014 General] onthecouchagain:
Are the Nexus 5 and Moto X using the same size sim?

EDIT: Nope. Curses.
[X 2014 General] ayoo456:
Yea cause I'm most likely one of them. I think the better speakers is what I want most. Weak speakers is the only thing I don't like about the Nexus
[X 2014 General] eksasol:
I hope I don't offend some people, but it seems a sizable percentage of Nexus people look down on the Moto X because they think it's an overpriced stock Android phone and think it cost too much. This is also true with OPO users. They think just because a phone use stock Android it automatically worth less. They don't take in consideration the difference in hardware design and add-on features. I just think installing CM on the X just take away all the great things about it.
[X 2014 General] 0.0:
I was a Nexus 4 user, and why I got the Moto X is because my n4 was dying on me. Also, it's a nice phone, and the added hardware and software tweaks is worth enough for the price imo. I just want a clean stock experience, and that is why I like both the Nexus and Moto X

sent from my Moto X (2014)
[X 2014 General] ref1ux:
Nexus user here - owned every Nexus phone since the original. I've picked up a Moto X simply because this year's Nexus is too large. But I agree with the analysis here - the X is a good substitute, but it isn't quite the same thing and I hope we won't see any negatives from that. If we don't get L pronto I will be complaining all over Twitter :crying:
[X 2014 General] biggiestuff:
I bought the nexus 5 first and the moto x after but sold my nexus 5 and used the moto x exclusively. My wife got a new iphone so now i'm using her nexus 5.

Things i like since moving to the Nexus 5

larger crisper screen.

snappier performance (very noticable) whether in games, browsing, and using google now voice commands, everything just comes quicker and faster.

willingness to take more pictures because it has a better camera

Things i REALLY miss from the moto X

Active display. LED light from N5 doesn't cut it for me anymore

Touchless controls. I can't wake my phone from sleep. I don't use it much but when I want to I can't with the N5

--mics Moto's mics are awesome. I don't have to raise my voice like I do with the N5 when using the OK google command.

* on the N5 i have the google voice detection turned on for all screens and it drains the battery a little more. When plugged in, i leave the screen on so I have somewhat of touchless control.

Speaker - The moto's speaker is super loud compared to the N5.

Moto Assist - I use "AGENT" for the N5 but it's just not the same. The text reading and replying is very similar but with the Moto's mics the experience is better on the moto, but agent works very well as an alternative. Incoming calls aren't read out loud to you in Agent but they are in Moto Assist. AGENT relies on connecting to a trusted device in order for drive mode to come on while moto assist is able to detect when you're driving even w/o connecting to the trusted bluetooth device.

Battery life - i consistently get an hour more of SOT time with the moto over the N5 with just about the exact same type of usage.

There are a few other quirks between the two but these are the major ones for me.

The Moto X 2014 seems to blend both of these phones together and that's why I'm really wanting it, despite the battery life complaints. If it's equal to or greater to the moto x 2013 I'll probably get it. ESPECIALLY if the moto nexus doesn't have the moto tweaks. I doubt it does but i'm holding onto that small sliver of hope it does. These moto enhancements are very very very usual and i wish Google would bake these into Android but then Moto wouldn't be as unique any longer.
[X 2014 General] bostonirishguy13:
Dynamic Notifications is a nice substitute to use on the N5.

The N6/X at 5.9" is too big.
[X 2014 General] Note10.1Dude:
My take on it is that Motorola provides the nearest to Nexus experience (aside from GPE editions), with some extras in the sensors/software. The new Moto X is of the same hardware generation as the Nexus 5, so I think most will stick with the 5 unless they want a larger phone, and those will go to the 6 (which is about 1/2 generation newer if we believe the Snapdragon 805 [I almost called it a dragonball - now that will show my age in the mobile chip world] rumor). The phone jumpers will end up trying both the X and the 6, and may end up back at the 5.

I've been scratching my head between a Nexus 5 and Moto X to replace my work-supplied blackberry (company started to support Android in August) and think I am about to pull the trigger on the X. I thought about the M8 GPE, but holding both the new X and the M8 yesterday, the X definitely won out in-hand.
[X 2014 General] biggiestuff:
It's actually has some better features but it was ugly to look at from an angle since the n5 doesn't have the best viewing angles. Plus the turn screen on when pulling out of the pocket didn't work as well as the moto. Another feature I really like. Saves that power button.
[X 2014 General] 0.0:
Also, the battery drain will be a little bit more since the n5 screen is LCD. Having an active display like feature is made for amoled screens if you want to conserve battery

[X 2014 General] Deleted member 3105162:
I'm considering the Moto X but I am waiting to see if a root method (an prefereably an easy way to unlock the bootloader like the first gen Moto X) appears for the non-pure edition devices. If that doesn't happen by January, I may just have to rock a stupidly huge device. Being able to root and customize/backup/automate to my heart's desire is the most important feature of a phone to me. Second is stock Android and fast updates (so obviously the Moto X meets that).
[X 2014 General] tim k:
For those of us on Verizon who have suffered through the Galaxy Nexus' shortcomings (late / no updates) and the fact that the N4 and N5 weren't available on VZW. ---- the new MOTO X is really the only reasonable choice. Just ordered mine on Sunday to replace my ancient Galaxy Nexus. I'm hoping it is "pure enough". I do need someone to gain root though....
[X 2014 General] biggiestuff:
wow you're still rocking it? You're a glutton for punishment.
[X 2014 General] tacosrdelicioso:
Even after the most recent GPU update lol I still own mine and play with it occasionally
[X 2014 General] tim k:
I know. Almost 3yrs at this point. But what was I gonna do? We have unlimited data on our two phones, and get a nice discount through my wife's work. And she travels in places like Kentucky and West Virginia so the Verizon coverage is a big deal. If it was just me I would've switched to T-Mobile already. So, considering that....what could I do but keep the Galaxy Nexus? I couldn't stand Samsung's crapware etc, and nothing else interested me. The new X is the first thing that seems like a real option.

I hope it lives up to my expectations.

My wife is still rocking a Motorola Droid Razr. If you think the Galaxy Nexus struggles to function now you should try her phone....she gave up before me, and she still uses a Blackberry Curve for work.
[X 2014 General] biggiestuff:
I actually still have mine but it sits there in my desk drawer. It's my work phone. I just forwarded all the calls to my personal phone and turned my Verizon Sim into an unlimited hotspot. You're right as there weren't any phones from Verizon that appealed in the way a nexus does so no fault there. I just have nightmares when I think about the battery life on the Verizon galaxy nexus.
[X 2014 General] holtenc:
I don't get why everyone complains about the battery. My Moto X (2014) SPANKS my N5 battery. Love this phone.
[X 2014 General] biggiestuff:
That comment was referring to the moto x's 2014 battery life compared to other flagships. Is the moto x 2014 battery life better than the moto x 2013? Those battery screens people have been posting don't look promising.
[X 2014 General] holtenc:
Fair enough.
[X 2014 General] biggiestuff:
Did you own the previous moto?
[X 2014 General] holtenc:
No, I didn't. I guess at the end of the day battery life is pretty individual experience based on use and habbits. I was only chiming in that, in my experience, my 2014 X is much better than my N5 in the battery dept. Guess I didn't completely read/understand your initial post.
[X 2014 General] garyHal:
Jumping in and voicing my thoughts on the nexus vs moto x as well.

I don't have the moto x 2013 but loved almost everything about it. I was not sure how reliable the updates were, which was why I went with the nexus 5. I tried to apply 3rd party apps to mimic software features of the x. Applied a faux wood sticker to the back side to make it look like a bamboo back phone.

It ended looking lame. I am hoping that Moto X 2014 will continue to get prompt updates and development support because that is what I am leaning towards it for my November purchase.
[X 2014 General] jmtjr278:
Hey guys,

Seems like allot of nexus 5 owners have jumped on this phone for obvious reasons.

My question to all of you is this... My moto x made how I want with no contact is over $600. I can get a nexus 5 with 32gb for half the price if not less. Is it worth the extra $300 for this device?

Thanks for your insight.

I should add I am a former nexus 4 user who sold it about a month or two ago and have been using a galaxy nexus since.
[X 2014 General] Note10.1Dude:
The X is certainly the nicer phone. I was looking at $400 vs $ 525. That difference was worth it to me.
[X 2014 General] Faruko:
To be fair i think the Moto X series is a Nexus done right, pure android + festures that add to the user exprience.

Its not only a phone like google wanted, but a phone that shows what android is all about, even more so than the Nexus series, which besides some impressive specs at an impressive price they dont add that much more.

Instead we have the Moto X with its Touchless control which its superb (shaking for camera, see notifications just by being near, etc...)
[X 2014 General] :
The X is the better phone..... If you don't care about development.

That's the giant difference. ?
[X 2014 General] jmtjr278:
I think ultimately I do care about development. My x is coming today. I think I'm going to send it back within the 14 days. Hopefully I can figure out where to go from here.

I also think my decision has to do with accessories available for this device. I understand it is brand new but there is a huge lack of big companies that are planning anything for this device.
[X 2014 General] robstunner:
Darn, you mean I won't be able to flash 75 difference aosp Roms that look exactly the same with different DPI or colors? Color me unhappy (sarcasm). Other than probably Franco kernel I have zero disappointment with the smaller Dev community. These phones work fine as is.
[X 2014 General] :
But to each their own... Correct?

There's many flashaholics on xda... And I've seen many of them in the 2013 X thread that were disappointed.

So a fair statement, don't you think.

Not everyone is like you... In fact the majority on XDA like many options.

?
[X 2014 General] robstunner:
Your right, not everyone is like me as we are all different. However that does not mean I can share my personal thought on a public forum.
[X 2014 General] :
Of course you can? Who said you couldn't? Read up... There's only sarcasm in one of the above posts. ?
[X 2014 General] robstunner:
Cool, so my point stands. There's a ton of useless, many times kanged Roms on nexus devices. It just depends if you want that or not to influence your decision on a moto x that will look 90% exactly the same as any rom on said nexus.
[X 2014 General] :
And I don't disagree. I'm more like you. I like a few particular roms and usually stick with those... Or I try new things that offer something new and exciting maybe.

That said, I did give my awesome X to my wife and got an N5...cause there were just so few options on the X.

Now I have an M8...and between sense and aosp... There's lots of variety.

My first post was simply that if you want more options, no.... You can't beat a nexus.

If you just prefer a nice phone... Maybe with gravity box or a few roms to choose from... Then the X is a good choice.

There's a lot of threads and posts on the 2013 section asking why there's so little development.... And they will happen here too.

I just like to explain this difference in devices to those trying to decide. That's it.

Sorry for off topic OP.... No more from me. ?
[X 2014 General] robstunner:
No biggie to me, I have a nexus 5 as well but I only ever used Franco kernel on stock rooted. Google spends billions on android, I'm good with how they make it. Maybe I'm just getting old.
[X 2014 General] raze599:
If other Nexus users are anything like me, or at least some of them, they'll be the same as me as in I am bored of flashing and everything I just want a phone that works all the time. I like flashing as a novelty but nowadays its more trouble than its worth. Not like before where to have a half decent smooth experience on your phone you had to flash an AOSP build on it. Though I can't shake the thought of why I bought a Nexus in the first place, to be able to flash. That thought is engrained in my head and thats the only reason I'm slightly hesitant on getting one of these lol though I probably will in the end. Feels a bit like betraying yourself lmao
[X 2014 General] jmtjr278:
Well, I accepted delivery of my x this morning. I am keeping it. That's how impressed I am already. The phone is beautiful, it is fast, very fluid, and the screen is great. I will just get used to not having pie controls and some of the other great paranoid android features. I know I can use lmt but I don't like that pie nearly as much.

[X 2014 General] Faruko:
While i like development, on my Moto G i always end up going back to stock, it was much better...

And i guess it will be the same with the X 2014.

If this was a phone with a custom UI i would have flash something else day 1, but on a Nexus-like phone (for me) theres 0 reason, in fact, i hated that not everything was working with custom ROMs, there was always that little thing (be the Radio, GPS, etc...) that never worked or broke with the next update
