Welcome aboard the exclusive Phwatch train and join the club for posers! I can 100% relate to everything you said and I think my experience on day one was exactly the same as you.

It certainly is something to show off. I have invented new (and often painful) ways to position my arm to fully maximize the chances of my friends/colleagues catching sight of it and asking about it, I am only too poised to start flicking through screens to amaze and astound them. Followed by the inevitable "How much did it cost?" of course, which when I tell them further astonishes and astounds them :D
[Samsung Gear S] srtpusher:
I have been using the sleep app and really like it.. I normally get 4-5 hours, but now that I can see it I am up to 7 hours of sleep. It makes a difference when you can see it (at least to me)
[Samsung Gear S] sbrownla:
Hmmmmm, I don't find it to be comfortable to sleep in ... Maybe they should create a comfort band specifically for sleeping.
[General Questions and Answers] indgirl6:
hi, i have purchased few phones on swappa before and never had issues.

Bu this time i purchased an unlocked samsung galaxy S5 and received a fake.

I will now be returning the phone. but i have a question.

What kind of proof can i gather that i sent the phone back. I dont trust the seller now and i dont want him to say that i sent an empty box.

I can get a tracking # and stuff but that does not prove that i send the phone in the box.

Please advice..
[General Questions and Answers] Generale-ivan1996:
Contact admin

contact admin or moderator. you know what happened. you show evidence of phone data and more + photo and sales receipt. hopefully contact the seller and tell him to proceed with the lawsuit because if he declares that it is an original device. but then it is a fake. this is a crime. I hope to be state aid.
[General Questions and Answers] indgirl6:
thnaks for your response, i already did that and they agree its a clone. the final resolution is that i have to send the phone back and get a full refund.

However, my worry is that i will send hte phone back with tracking and seller might claim that he got an empy box or that there was something other than phone in the box.. how do i prove that i sent the phone from my side?
[General Questions and Answers] BladeRunner:
I have the same concern, how did this work out for you? I am thinking that taking it to a place like Mailboxes etc. where they pack and ship for you might be a good idea.
[HTC First] russian392:
Hello everybody!

Yes its been like for ever since i broke my HTC First and moved on and since then ive had an Atrix HD and now have a Red Nexus 5. Running lollipop.

But still i look back to this phone and still think this is probably the best phone ive owned. All day battery, great size and build quality, stock android. Yes development was always a minus, but still.

How is everyone doing?

PS: thinking of getting my sister an HTC First, its a pretty solid device hardware wise and she doesnt care much about software, she is using an old ipod touch and an ipad, shes tired of ios
[HTC First] procitysam:
Good to see someone else converting to the Android master race >:) lol. I agree with the fact that the battery generally lasted all day, but the lack of speed is what caused me to want to get something better. But yeah it was a good device when I came from a MyTouch 3G and then 3 Windows Phones.

Off topic here, are you seeing any drop in battery life on the official Lollipop update on your N5 compared to an AOSP version from a few days ago?
[HTC First] russian392:
Haha I've converted to android since 2011 and my sister never likes apple anyways.

Miss this community so much, looks like everyone has left like Abraham and loir.

Um at first battery life was more like battery death but after a reboot and full charge I did manage to get my minimum of 4 hours screen on time. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get 5 hours.

I was thinking moto g, vs the HTC first, but I haven't found anything in it that is better than in the First. Especially for my sis who has really small hands surprisingly (she's 5 years younger but as big as me and I'm 19...)
[HTC First] DecaPix:
still using my First and still hoping to get at least KitKat so that i can pair with android wear...

but looks like no luck and i have to change my phone soon.

:crying:

but seriously between first and Moto G, i'll get the moto G

at least you get official Lollipop support. 5 hrs SOT.

The 1st gen Moto G size is not that much bigger than the 1st
[HTC First] russian392:
Yes you get software support..but this isn't for me. Its for my sister and plus I'd like to get back into hacking and stuff cause with a nexus you don't really want to tinker much
[HTC First] procitysam:
Yeah Lloir is no longer here since he bricked his First so he just upgraded to something else. Jmz is no longer here, and I'm not sure if sun_dream is here either. I know someone was working on a CM11 port but he told me that he needed to learn more before it was going to work well enough for daily use.
[HTC First] russian392:
I just hate to see such a good device "go to waste".

I also wish i could port cm11, atleast learn some how, but my only computer is my desktop at home, and internet at 700kbps is not enough to do anything except browse the web. But if internet wasnt a problem id definitely try even though i have no idea how.

CM puts so much effort into mainstream devices that will get updates anyways and never focus on forgotten devices.
[HTC First] procitysam:
Yeah and it's sad because it didn't use to be like that. It's gonna be even worse when CM12 is released because they said that if a device 1) is not owned by maintainers or 2) can't cooperate with the new security measures then they won't support it at all.
[HTC First] russian392:
Oh wow...yeah thats not good so I guess only options is unofficial ports.
[HTC First] procitysam:
Yeah probably. The best part is though that the GS3 Mini and Motorola Defy have both gotten 5.0 ports.
[HTC First] russian392:
I'm gonna try to contact carbon ROM and see if they could take up development here. Better than nothing.
[HTC First] procitysam:
I've never heard of Carbon ROM. Is it AOSP with added features?
[HTC First] russian392:
Its like a more stable version of CM with more features brought over from other Roms but its not as crazy as paranoid android or aokp
[HTC First] dramon:
I dont want to upgrade also, I know i'll miss the design of the First if I sell it
[HTC First] jamesc760:
I agree, First is a great phone, stylish, great design and ergonomics, i will keep this phone no matter what. My daily driver is Moto X, 2013 model. I like to use my phone in one hand, never liked anything over 4.7-in screen size, have had Samsung S3, original Note, Note 2 and Note 3, traded them all, although i really liked S3 the most, couldn't live with the Notes. Htc First has become my backup phone. Previously, i used a Palm Pre Plus as my backup, but i finally traded it in.
[HTC First] russian392:
Yeah totally agree. I have a nexus 5 right now and it's quite great for one handed use. But looking for a first for my mom
[HTC First] hohosanta:
So... Is there anybody working CM on HTC first ? I guess not... It's so sad. But i still like my first.
[HTC First] russian392:
Not that I know of. It's strange considering getting drivers for this chip set should be a piece of cake...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unster:
Hi guys,

first of all, I just get myself official update to Lollipop.

1. I have N5 16GB as my daily use device and I wonder: is 12,5 GB internal space for user a correct amount? Hadn't I got much more on KitKat?

Also maybe you can help me on few other things bothering me on version 5:

2. Is there any way to add "restart" command to power button menu?

3. I cannot see "Gallery" app - what is the fastest and easiest way to get to my camera folder? Only via camera app itself?

4. How can I block some apps activities like Dialer to use localization. Before I was using Xposed module for that

5. Does A5 include standard SMS app or Hangout is my only choice?

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] unster:
Hi again guys,

I managed to find some answers for my own, but I got stuck here:

Guys,

I am currently Running STOCK LRX21O.Rooted using Chainfire's AutoRoot and TWRP -2.8.1.0. I made backup but I am unable to access it using ES file explorer(with root option enabled). Also tried Root explorer but It just doesnt show the Folder itself.

When I boot into TWRP it shows the Backup folder there. So I tried to check it with adb to do a ls and it shows its there. I need to copy that folder to cloud just incase. I dont see permission issues. Plese suggest how to fix this ?

[Moto X Q&A] MikeyNick:
As long as you have one of the simple choice plans that includes wifi tethering, then it just works. If you are on the prepaid plans, then there is a workaround for it by modifying the APN (used to work anyway, dunno if it still does).

hi..

I have Moto X 1053 bootloader unlocked on stock and rooted 4.4.4. I can have native hotspot (wifi tethering) but after a few minutes of inactivity, it dies out. I mean on various other handsets I've seen and used this option

Mobile Hotspot settings > Inactivity timeout

but here in X1053 I cant seem to find any option where I can set it to never sleep after X mintues of inactivity.

Please guide if any tweak/xposed module can help me on this. Very important for me.
[Sprint LG G2] dtx.boy:
I bought this phone and I cant restore it to stock firmware with flashtool cuz computer thinks its a different model than the dll and tot files, Ive tried with the dll file that supposes to ignore de model number but i get crossedl error.

I can push files in adb but it seems like twrp wont flash anything properly, for example If i flash a rom the process takes like 4 seconds but when I reboot the phone it goes back to twrp, Ive tried flashing a newer version of twrp but its the same thing

Is there anyway I can force my phone to boot into fastboot? any help would be appreciated

I fixed it pushing the original built.prop from another g2 using adb commands and then i used flashtool.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] brucewilsonpa:
My TyTN is bricked thanks to my trying to update it to the Cingular aku3.3 ROM -- with so many others in the same situation I've been unable to obtain any specific help (I've gone thru the Wiki and numerous threads and tried every suggested fix I could find, all to no avail) and I desparately need to get my pda phone working. After learning that HTC has no servicing location in the USA and their branded service center (I contacted Cingular HTC service center) won't work on my TyTN, I've concluded it's not a good idea to buy another TyTN. So I'm ready to go to the local Cingular dealer and signup for a 2-yr contract so I can purchase an 8525 for about half what I'd pay for the TyTN (Cingular is my provider so I only need the equipment).

BUT..... if there is ANY hope I could recover my dead TyTN I'd much prefer to do that. It's just that time is short and, as I said, I really rely on my pda phone.

Thanks for any help offered.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] richy240:
What's wrong with it specifically? I think there might be something wrong with mine as well...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] brucewilsonpa:
In my case I got an error when it was 91% complete on the ROM upgrade -- since then I can't boot into WinMobile -- it boots to the Cingular/ATT logo then goes blank, so I have no access to it at all except via the bootloader. As I said, the Wiki has loads of useful info and how-to suggestions but none of them seem to work for my "brick". And I really need to make a decision.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] richy240:
Crap, that sucks.

I upgraded to the "HTC Test" ROM, and now I cannot make outgoing calls. About 40 - 50% of my calls are met with "Call cannot be completed as dialed," and I am frustrated as hell. So then I downgraded and got the same results.

So then I went to the new 2.06 Cingular (AT&T) ROM with no luck, and then downgraded (again) to the earlier Cingular ROM (I don't recall which version).

I ahve a fully functioning device, but I cannot make calls! (Well, some go through.) I should mention my data is working like a champ. My next step is to try a new Cingular SIM - my T-Mobile SIM also works just fine, both data and voice.

Hmm...

Facebook Chat Re-Enabler​

Hello guys. As most of you know, chat in Facebook app doesn't work anymore and now you need to install Messenger app.

I made this simple app to enable chat again in main Facebook app without installing Messenger.

Disadvantages of Facebook+Messenger installed at same time:

HUGE

battery drain and RAM consumption, resource eater.

Advantages of Facebook Chat Enabler: It's only an enabler and is never executed by the system, meaning no battery drain/RAM consumption/resource eating at all. (Facebook app itself drains battery)

You don't need to do anything else, just download and install. After installation, no icon is showed in menu and chat will magically work!

Just got a Verizon GS and am noticing that my typical setup, Watch on left hand, BT headset in right ear I get constant disconnects with

my Bluetooth headset.

The connection will drop and the call audio will revert to the speaker on the watch.

I have tried disabling WiFi and GPS with no success.

Anyone else having this issue?

[Samsung Gear S] apprentice:
I don't have this issue but I did have a similar problem when I was using a Sony BT headset with my old Galaxy Gear.

I corrected this issue with an excellent app called "Bluetooth Auto Connect"

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.myklos.btautoconnect

It's useful for prioritising bluetooth devices. It might be helpful, then again the Gear S does have unusual connection bridging. It's worth a go.

[Samsung Gear S] tregobad:
Hi,

I`m using a Plantronics headset, which works fine with my Samsung S4 (and all other phones).

Now, I`ve tried to connect the headset to my Gear. The connection itself works fine and without any problem.

But, and that`s angrily, I can use the headset only when the Gear is not connected via BT to my mobile (S4).

Inside the Tel-App, the headset symbole is not shown (greyed out), but inside the BT Headset configuration profile shown as "paired".

If I disconnect my BT connection between the mobile and the Gear, the headset works at once with the gear.

Many configurations checked, I`ve no more ideas.

Any hint?

Thanks in advance, tregobad
[Samsung Gear S] tregobad:
Update:

I`ve checked again how it works.

My Headset (Plantronics 725) is connected with the mobile AND Gear S.

Mobile and Gear are connected via BT.

If I get a call, both devices ringing (Multi Sim). Doesn`t matter if I accept the call at the mobile OR Gear, i can use the Headset.

But , if I accept the call at the Gear and use the Headset, the mobile is used and connected with the Headset.

That means:

mobile and Gear BT connected = Headset connects to mobile

disconnected = Headset connect to the device you be beside, mobile OR Gear

I'm experiencing an issue that may be related. I have my Gear S connected with my Note 4 and when I turn on a BT headset that's only paired to my Note 4, the Gear S disconnects. I then manually go and reconnect my Gear S to my Note 4.

Is there a way to keep the Gear S connected to my Note 4 when I turn on my BT headset? Or will the Gear S always disconnect from my Note 4 when a different audio device connects to the Note 4?

I have a 2014 Moto X, 16 GB with the bamboo back, on Verizon. The back is peeling off, and I've just finished speaking with Motorola.

I didn't buy the device - it was traded. Despite the fact that I have the box, the IMEI, and everything except the original order information, they refuse to help me. If I had the order info, I'd be well on my way to a new one, but without it, they're happy to leave me completely swinging by myself.

So if you're thinking about buying one used, or giving one as a gift... I wouldn't recommend it. They don't care, and couldn't be bothered to try and find a solution. Last motorola product I'll ever buy.
[X 2014 General] helldogg75:
Not exactly Motorola's fault.
[X 2014 General] dg4prez:
In what way? Tell me of another company that doesn't honor their warranty if you gift a device. It's not like I don't have the serial number, IMEI, and every other bit of info for the thing. Every other company on the planet uses serial numbers for warranties. It shouldn't matter who owns the device or if they kept their receipt. This isn't a pair of headphones from Best Buy, here.

Not only that, but it's a 2014. It can only be so old. It's not like this might somehow be out of warranty.
[X 2014 General] 2015Ducatimulti:
most if not all items for electronics.... from my past experience that the warranty is only for the original purchaser, its usually in the warranty policy, I buy and sell a lot of used phones, and I know that`s the chance I take of buying used.

below is from moto website

LIMITED GLOBAL WARRANTY

FOR CONSUMERS WHO ARE COVERED BY CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS OR

REGULATIONS IN THEIR COUNTRY OF PURCHASE OR, IF DIFFERENT, THEIR COUNTRY OF

RESIDENCE, THE BENEFITS CONFERRED BY THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE IN ADDITION

TO ALL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES CONVEYED BY SUCH CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS

AND REGULATIONS.

Who is Covered?

This Limited Warranty extends only to the first consumer purchaser of the Product, and is not transferable.
[X 2014 General] jarayn:
It sucks, but I have never owned an electronic device where the warranty extends to the second hand market

You say it is the last Motorola phone you will ever buy, perhaps a wiser choice would be to make this the last second hand phone you ever buy.

...

Can you not glue the back?
[X 2014 General] kcustom11:
At the minimum you could send it in and they can reglue it or replace the back cover. It will cost you but it's better than nothing. You might be able to negotiate a deal.
[X 2014 General] hyperspacey:
You never get warranty coverage without proof of purchase, it's basically Warranty 101. My advice would be to contact the original seller and ask them if they can do a warranty return for you.
[X 2014 General] CUBENSIS:
I have never heard of a company that warrants an item with no proof of purchase. Even with proof of purchase, the warranty on most consumer goods is not transferable.

Factory warranties on cars is the only case I can think of where they don't care about proof of purchase (because they already know when it was purchased).
[X 2014 General] erikiksaz:
One thing to keep in mind is that sometimes your experience will vary from rep to rep.

And also your attitude going into it is important as well.

I have a friend that gets no help ANYWHERE, and it's because of the manner in which he speaks. He's not outright rude, but he's a bit socially inept, so he comes off very abrasive. You can hear kindness. People like to help nice people.
