Samsung and HTC etc. devices get Dev because they are bloated with touchwiz/sense etc., there is not a lot to do on the moto x besides throw some aosp, or cm roms at it, but then you lose the "proprietary" features that the moto x has (which is its selling point, if you bought this phone not because of active display or moto voice then you really bought the wrong phone).

Not a lot of incentive for a Dev to work on the moto x, not much can be gain only loss....I.e. You goto cm or aosp you lose not gain...for the most part. Really not a lot of incentive to work on this phone. Sure there might eventually be a cm or even pa or aosp ROM but who really wants that over stock with xposed?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mprziv:
There is nothing similar to active display and touchless control on Samsung's touchwiz or HTC's sense.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cb474:
As I said in the post to which you claim to be replying, if that were the reason not to develop for the Moto X, then there would also be no developement for Nexus devices, since they have no bloat and arrive pure stock. The point of custom roms, obviously, is not just to get rid of bloat, but to add lots of features that do not exist elsewhere. Indeed, some roms are made so that people can have an HTC Sense or Samsung Touchwiz type of experience on a non-HTC or non-Samsung phone. Roms are hardly all about returning phones to a stock experience. So I think that argument is obviously wrong to anyone who thinks about it for a minute.

Look at the OnePlus One. It ships with Cyanogen. Zero bloat, already has the most popular custom rom on it. If this argument had any merit, there would be no development for it. But in fact there is tons of development for it. Because it's a totally open device and OnePlus One encourages development.

You wouldn't lose the proprietary features if Motorola released drivers necessary for them to work, as other cell phone manufacturers do, so this point begs the question (again, as I already said in the post you were supposedly responding to).

*

Samsung has their own weird hardware button layout, heart rate monitors, HTC has the oddball two lens camera in the M8. It doesn't matter what the feature is. All that matters is that there's some extra piece of hardware in there and it's going to need a driver and access to the hardware for developers to use it in a custom rom.

The difference, I believe, is that Samsung and HTC release the proprietary binaries and other source code, which makes it possible for developers to develop for their phones. Motorola, for whatever reason, has chosen not to do this. I think that is the only reason their is no development for the Moto X. So I think people are actually just misunderstanding what the problem is with development for the Moto X. (If some developer out their wants to chime in with more explanation of this, I'd be happy for some confirmation.)

All the other reasons people are repeating here are made up reasons that I think have nothing to do with how development actually happens. Repeating them, because someone else somewhere in the forum said it, does not make it true.

Motorola, it seems, just doesn't want people to develop for their devices and they prevent that by not releasing the binaries and source necessary to do so.

*

The point can even be taken another step. Because the hardware on the 1st and 2nd Gen Moto Xs is so nice and generally liked and because the 2nd Gen Moto X is in fact the basis for the Nexus 6 and extremely similar to it, I think that if the binaries and source code necessary were available, there would be a lot of development for the Moto X. So it has nothing to do with all the reasons people say about why there's no need to develop for the Moto X and everything, I believe, to do with Motorola blocking developers from developing for the Moto X.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NRGZ28:
Or maybe it's just the fact that it's a mediocre device that a lot of devs aren't going to purchase. I'm sending mine back after 4 days with it. Love the build quality, but I can't live with the mediocre screen, crappy camera and poor battery life.

Most devs, "dev" for popular devices and sadly, the moto x isn't one of them :(
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rogeriorp:
I do not see the hate towards this device to be reasoned, at all. Battery (not so ****ty as I thought it would be, very similar to Nexus 5 so you can not linger on that )and camera (I also believe it to be better then Nexus 5's) are the payoffs of a great phone. What is wrong with the screen, NRG?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dobbs3x:
I had the first gen moto x, it has lots of development but they are all cm or aosp based Roms. Pretty much a dozen different Roms with either cm or aosp as the base. There is nothing special with them. Just someone is bored and wanted to try making a ROM. They bring nothing really useful to the device unless you really just like cm. Which you should of bought the one plus or a nexus. Trust me all the Roms developed for the first gen moto x are nothing crazy, just rehashed cm and aosp.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
If you consider the X to be mediocre, I'd love to know what phone you think is high end. I burn through Android phones like they are candy, and to me, the X is hands down the best smartphone ever made. Sure there are phones with better screens, cameras, and battery life, but they all have other compromises, some that are far worse. The X's screen is only mediocre when side by side with a nicer one, the camera is more than sufficient, and my battery life has been amazing. There has never been an Android phone this mature and elegant, with performance to boot. The software is as close to perfect as you can get (talking KitKat here, I'm not sold on Lollipop), and the overall user experience is second to none, at least in my eyes. To each their own I suppose, but I just can't fathom how anybody can call the X a mediocre phone.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowspring:
Why would you install a custom rom on the Moto X?

I think it is a compliment to the device there is no development and urgent need for different software. What is somebody going to improve software wise that isn't already present?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sulla65:
Exactly, its amazing. People buy a new Samsung , HTC or LG phone and immediately want to change everything on it. That doesn't say much for the original intent of the manufactures. With the Moto X line, most are completely satisfied with it right out of the box. Something those other phones can claim.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StiiLe:
Is that true ?

I was going to unlock bootloader and root this nice device in order to put some tweaks (DPI change, Apps Control, Ad blocker...), but if I lose the active display this is not going to be good... :(

I also would like to add that this phone is less famous than others blockbusters from HTC, LG or Samsung (at least in France). Developers seem to go to where there are many users for their ROMs, excluding Nexus' line. This and that Motorola doesn't release the binaries and source... :(
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
You wont lose any features just from unlocking and rooting, only if you flash a custom ROM that doesn't have them built in.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StiiLe:
Yep I meant : then, can I lose Active Display for example if I put some tweaks (DPI change, Apps Control, Ad blocker...) ? Or even if I go back to KitKat to enjoy Xposed Modules ?

Edit

: I answered too fast, you added : "only if you flash a custom ROM that doesn't have them built in", so I guess Xposed Modules cannot turn off Active Display. :)
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dobbs3x:
Krypton ROM on the 1st gen x was an awesome ROM. It was stock based but he had some good Dev in it. But it wasn't a must have, with xposed you can pretty much do all you want. Most Roms have little tweaks in them that can be done now with xposed, of course if you stay on KitKat :)
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Why would you lose active display if you install some tweaks? Like I said, you'll only lose Moto features if you flash a ROM that doesn't have them.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StiiLe:
Yes I believe we don't need a ROM when we can use Xposed, of course if we stay on Kitkat (is Lollipop worth enough to leave Xposed ?). :)

I was wondering if some tweaks could perturb Moto features, for example I read that if we change DPI on Lollipop, the Active Display screen is not centered anymore, there are some bugs... Then, maybe some other tweaks could even turn of some other features. :confused:
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Oh I gotcha. Yeah, changing your DPI does mess with Active Display, but it still works. As far as I know, that's really it.

I agree totally, there is no need for a custom ROM when you have Xposed. Both my Moto X and Nexus 5 are still on 4.4.4 mainly because of Xposed. Lollipop just isn't worth losing the ability to tweak the crap out of my phone.

Hi, I'm new here and this website has been very useful.

But I have and issue with my Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830

About phone:

Android version: 2.3.5

Kernel Version 2.6.35.7

Build number: Gingerbread

Fully Rooted.

Clockwork Mod

I recently installed a stock and did all of the following things included using this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2609021

After that I did a sd partition using this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1476121

But instead of using a card reader, I did the sd partition using CWM.

Everything worked fine, and I managed to free a great deal of internal storage by linking most of my apps to the sd card.

But recently whenever I use wifi, my phone randomly freezes and goes to the lock screen, where I don't have coverage and no sd card. I have to wait 30 seconds or so to get the coverage back and for the sd card to be scanned.

This problem only occurs when I have my wifi on.

I have no idea why this problem occurs or what could be the cause of it. Could somebody help me find a solution or just explain what could be the cause of this problem.

Thank you in advance.

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perhac88:
I've had my eee Pad Transformer TF101 for a few years now. I've had it rooted for most of the time, I've installed several roms before. But a few months ago I hard bricked (Pretty sure it's a hard brick) my tablet installing a new rom.

It will turn on, but it well stay on the ASUS logo for 5 minutes then turn off and start back at the ASUS logo until it turns off again. I use the power and down key to somewhat access recovery. I attempt to access recovery but all I get is a screen with an android on it's back with the red explanation point signal. The blue bar under the android acts like it loading, but I never get past this screen, and after a few minutes it will reboot to the ASUS logo again.

Also when I plug my tablet into my computer it will recognize that something is plugged in but is unable to install the driver. I've attempted to install other drivers but my computer wont allow me to, it keeps telling me the driver I have installed is the best driver, even though its not working.

I've looked all over xda, and I've tried easyflasher and peri. but I'm unable to connect to my computer successfully in order to get either to work.

Does anyone have any advice?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
You need to get the Universal Naked Drivers installed

If you are running 64bit Windows, disable driver signing from safemode options - or use Win 7 32bit

Win 8.x needs driver signing disabled for both flavours

--

You need to stick the TF into APX mode (Power off then Vol up & power till the PC recognises it and tries to install the drivers) then install the above drivers and try Easyflasher again
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] perhac88:
I got the Universal Drivers working a few hours ago. I was able to boot into APX and have my transformer recognized by my computer. I ran Easyflasher several times trying to flash a recovery and using the stock/unbrick option, but it hadn't ran all the way through or told me on the tablet that it was successful until a few minutes ago. I tried again a few minutes ago and Easyflasher went all the way through and the tablet stated on screen that it was successful, excpet now I can't boot at all or even attempt to pull up recovery, it now doesn't boot into anything but APX.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Did you use the correct SBK on Easyflasher?

B6O serials and earlier are SBK1, some B7Os too, the rest above are SBK2

Wont do any harm using the wrong one, it just wont work

And to get out of APX mode, hold power for 30 seconds~, then power on normally

--

Did you try flashing it back to stock using the stock firmware instructions on the Easyflasher page ?

If you only flashed TWRP recovery, you will need to power on normally (not recovery) at least once and hopefully see the blue update progress bar under the ASUS logo for a few seconds while it updates RCK - then you should be able to power off and press VOL DOWN & POWER till you see the white text at the top of the TF screen - then release all buttons and within 5 seconds, hit POWER UP once to enter recovery

Ok, I'm trying to make sense of what your current device configuration is before I tell you what to do. There is no lollipop for the s4 and cm won't work if you're using safestrap. I'm going to assume you have safestrap and you're on 4.4.4. If that's the card you'll need to flash the nb1 tar file in Odin to get your device working again.
