[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpen:
I've had a rooted S4 since it came out last May, so over a year and a half, which I love, besides a few problems, and I was looking at the Moto X. I have read a bunch and I see that there is no root for the Verizon version. Has anyone made the switch from a rooted device that they loved to the unrooted Moto X? Curious if it is worth it or not as there are some Xposed modules I use quite a bit.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smelkus:
I came from the S3 on Verizon, which I had unlocked and rooted the whole time I owned it. Prior to that I had the OG EVO on Sprint, which was unlocked and rooted as well. I had a blast on the EVO and gained a lot of value from unlock/root then plus it was just exciting and enjoyable tinkering with it. The S3 experience was good in that I had AOSP ROMs, but I basically kept ending back on CM. While CM provided the latest version of Android, I was so tired of the problems that never seemed to go away-- SMS/MMS, bluetooth, GPS and more. It was to the point I would be reluctant to flash any update knowing a new problem would surface. I eventually just moved to a TouchWiz ROM and left it to avoid the problems. TWRP was buggy too, so I had to bounce around recoveries as well. That obviously is a part of using a rooted phone and messing with it, but I guess I got a little burned out with that. If you have free time and enjoy that whole process of testing things and tinkering, you would probably miss root/Xposed. For me, I wanted stock Android that worked. I think Moto's customizations are very smart and useful like a custom ROM. I miss cf.Lumen, which required root, but otherwise I like this phone and like having the latest Android. The Nexus 6 was too big for me. If you can handle that size (and price until there is a on-contract option), that could be an option. I also really enjoyed building a custom Moto with a leather back. You could write down everything you use root/Xposed for and see what alternatives exist in an unrooted world and go from there. If there are no deal breakers, I think it is a great phone with great software.

I appreciate you taking your time to write that up. I am almost 100% on buying it, but I just noticed the Droid Turbo. My real main reasons for not getting it already is the Non removable small battery and the camera. I have heard both sides of the fences with some saying they are fine, and some saying they are horrible. The Droid Turbo seems to have better camera and battery, but then again, I have heard both sides of the fences again, with people saying it isn't that much better, if even better at all. But the Moto X is so sexy compared to the Droid Turbo. The Non removable battery just really annoys me though. I go to a lot of conventions, and I like with the G4 having a spare battery to switch and instantly be at 100%.

I just can't wait until they come out with the PERFECT phone.......if that ever happens.....
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smelkus:
Every time I'm at phone decision time I feel the same way. This one is too big. This one has an older chip... different resolution... AMOLED.... LCD... SD card on and on. I passed on the Turbo because I didn't like the back and old navigation bar icons. Spec-wise it is solid. This Moto X is my first non-removable battery and non-SD card phone. I got past the battery thing because I'm a working stiff. Most weeks I'm at the office then home. On weekends I use the turbo charger at home to give me the boost for the evening and I always have a couple of external battery packs for insurance and convenience. It is surprising how nice an external battery pack is even if you are just outside or somewhere away from a charger. Don't have to power down and get to keep on going. When I travel for work, I've noticed there are built in breaks where I can let my phone charge on a pack, e.g. airport security, checking out of hotels, catching rides, meeting suppliers at places, so I haven't found the battery to be an issue. We'll see how I feel about the SD card thing a year from now or so. I got the 32GB for $50 in hopes of at least making it manageable. The Moto X is a good looking phone though that is for sure.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trimax84:
I had the original Moto X (with unlocked bootloader), loved it. Then I got a new job that have me the S4 (which I rooted). Didn't really like it but still have it. Two weeks ago I had the opportunity to upgrade to the 2nd Gen Moto X, so now I'm carrying with me the S4 and new X (just to give some reference).

I liked the size of the old X, and wish I could have retained that. But I didn't want to get left behind by not upgrading. I do miss root, mainly for a few xposed modules like gravitybox, Moto tether, and exchange bypass. But since I have my work phone I can tether in a pinch (not frequently needed at all).

There are sacrifices to all changes. For me, owning the non-rootable 2nd Gen X was worth the tradeoffs. I think you would be happy with the transition if you don't mind sacrificing root (I'm hopeful a method will be released!). I like the feel of it more than the S4 (physical handling, plus the coolness factor of designing it), the speed (S4 just feels more bulky and stutters quite a bit more), and the Moto features. I've found the radios (esp wifi) better on the X. I have the 32GB and haven't run into a problem yet. Though I can't fairly compare batteries since I use the two for very different purposes throughout my day.

Good luck!

I am having this problem only with MY Mate 2 and no other device. I also attached some pictures so everyone can better understand.

Anything to do with eBay on my phone is not showing any pictures. I noticed this first with my eBay app about a week ago the other day I needed it so I used chrome and went to ebay.com and on chrome the pictures were also missing (see attached pics) I also installed Dolphin Browser and again the same problem. I gave up after clearing all my cache under app settings for ebay and chrome. I also used a file explorer and search for anything with "ebay" in it and deleted it. Nothing. Every time I go to ebay the app or website on 2 different browsers all the pictuers are missing. I gave up and factory reset it and the problem is still there! This is only on my Mate 2! Anyone have any suggestions on where to look or what to delete to make the pics come back up? I googled everywhere and nothing! everyone just says clear your cache or uninstall and reinstall and if all else fails factory reset. I did all of this! and I'm still unable to use ebay anyway on my phone! even if i'm not logged into ebay so its not an account issue.

Can you open this link?

http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTUwMFgxNTAw/z/FGMAAOxyHIlTXc9d/$_1.JPG

To me, it looks like your phone has installed some adblock or site block. For example, have you checked the content of /etc/hosts?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] superbass311:
What am I looking for. I'm stumped. I just Uninstalled adfree but no change. it has to be a file that is staying after restoring from twrp restore point. I rolled back to a time I know eBay was working and this time it was not. so what location does not get formatted ya know what I mean?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] 4L0M:
Hi there. I installed Android 5.0 on my xperia Z Ultra last weekend, and when I installed the ebay app it had EXACTLY the same problem as you are having now, so I wonder if it's an actual problem with the app or ebay rather than your phone?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] superbass311:
it has to be something on the phones themselves... Its working on all my other devices. I have a lot of other devices. or a compatibality problem. Can anyone with the HAM2 on JB just tell me if ebay is showing all pictues.. do a search for some things also just dont open the app and say its working. lol. I'm also moving the thread to Q&A because lack of help! so sad. I need my ebay.

[MENTION=3266877]xordos[/MENTION] I can not open the link on my phone! both dolphin and chrome says "webpage not available" However when i click it on my laptop it opens to that USB 3.0 hub. so what you thinking?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] xordos:
When you do above test with laptop, is the laptop connect to internet same way as your MATE2, like both use your home wifi? or your phone maybe use carrier data plan?

Something maybe obvious from your side, but pls clarify, so I don't need to make any incorrect guess/assumption when troubleshooting.

I have searched a little bit, looks like a few people has similar problem on ebay image:

[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] superbass311:
the phone was tested on the same router as my laptop also on mobile data and my girlfirends router. In other words. One Comcast, One Brighthouse, and one AT&T networks (mobile data) And it also works on my other devices (Galaxy Tab 3 8.0, Note 4, LG Optimus G Pro all working on my home network. I'm gonna search a little more but in a nutshell after I did a factory reset I dont see how its possible to still have the problem.

I got IT!. Somehow the latest version of AdFree hostlist does not work on my phone and when I uninstalled it originally I did not revert back to the previous list first! I rolled back to when I had adfree installed and then reverted back to my orignal list now its working again. I uninstalled Adfree. But FML I had it forever and it was working fine
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] pucherto123:
So adfree is the problem? I'm having that same problem when I open the new balance page lol

yes when you open up AdFree you will see a option to revert back on the bottom if you really want it for NB :cowboy:

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Koostis:
Hi guys,

I know it's been posted like a million times, but I've got a dead Xperia Z1C. Powering with neither of volume buttons does not work and the mysterious red button next to the SIM tray does nothing as well. PC does not recognise the device, however it shows, that some kind of a usb device is connected. Phone's red indicator of charging is on and working, apparently it's the only thing that is working.

Is there any other way to turn it on, or do I have to contact the retail service?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgougos:
I had perhaps the same problem with my z1c. I manage to recover by:

1. Press vol + and power button. The phone vibrated 3 time.

2. Press vol - and connect the usb cable to pc (flash mode).

3. Open flashtool and flash 157 Rom.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Koostis:
I have tried holding all the button combinations - none of them worked - the phone never vibrates no matter how long I hold the buttons. Got the phone to the retailer, I hope the previous owner has not voided the warranty somehow...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Steph69:
Hi all, i have the mda pro (t-mobile UK) Had tried lots of roms before but in the end i stuck with the latest official t-mobile rom & radio.

In the last few weeks i every time i try to connect with gprs the signal goes, other times the phone just goes dead, wont reboot properly for a few try's( gets to the windows mobile logo then dead again.

After a few try's it will boot up, but it turns off alot i mean just about every time i open up the phone. I thought maybe the battery but when i get it to boot up its fine %70 battery ect ect.

Its still under warrenty and is actual being sent back tomorrow for repair but i have a feeling they will just reflash and send it back as the problem is random.

Anybody any ideas whats wrong? did a hard reset and problem if anything is worse now and seems to be getting worse everyday. Ofcourse i dont know when the phone has went belly up as its closed over when not in use.

I really would like a replacment phone but as i said i think they will reflash and send back. I have to keep sim,battery ect.ect.

Info anyone.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Pantaloonie:
With those symptoms my first thought would be a faulty battery. If i were you, I would insist on returning the battery for replacement as well.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Steph69:
Are Battery's covered under the first years guarantee?

Iam almost sure its the battery also, but the battery holds fine after it reboots, Having said that it never lasts anywhere near 24hrs and never has.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] mosobhy:
I'm sure that is the battery,I had the same problem and the guarantee covered only 6 monthes
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Steph69:
Problem solved....

Well got a brand new shinny MDA Pro replacment under warrenty.

Not a new battery tho, still got all the same problems so yup its a battery problem.

No big deal i will buy a new battery and i got a brand new mda pro again.

Result .....
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikaeldalc:
Ordered my Nexus 6 the other day (32gb Midnight Blue). Will be here on Tuesday.

Did I make right choice of phone?

I recently turned in my HTC M8 for the Xperia Z3V. I know, "WORST" mistake I made this year lol.

I'm a huge fan of stock android and can't wait to experience Lollipop. I loved my Nexus 4 and Nexus 5, other than the poor cameras and loud speakers.

This is gonna be my first Motorola made phone, but you can't complain about what they've done in the smartphone market of late.

After watching a few reviews of the Nexus 6, I can't help but notice that the back looks kinda like this blue leather looking material (hopefully I'm wrong). I was hoping for some kind of strong plastic.

The size of the phone definitely isn't too big for me. Im a huge media user and can't wait to watch some 1080p movies on it.

My doubt in the phone only comes when watching comparison videos with the Note 4. A lot of comparison are giving the upper hand to the Note 4.

My wife has the Note 4 and it does feel nice, but the aging design (hardware and software) of the galaxy line is a downside for me. Seriously, who still wants to use that hardware home button?

I've also noticed some complaints of the screen burn-ins and the nexus logo falling apart.

Anyone wanna try to help ease my thoughts with their experience so far?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Audaces:
The backing on the nexus is a hard plastic fyi.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikaeldalc:
You've made my day on that part. So did it just look better in person then? (The back)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vw65bus:
I too was uncertain but took the plunge also on ordering one. It'll be here this week. I traded in my note 4. But thankfully I don't have to turn in my note 4 till 2 weeks after receiving the nexus. So it gives me a chance to choose. But I well tell you I've not been happy with the note 4. The every once in a while lag/hiccups and constant losing lte in getting discouraged. I've rooted it and that seems to help but not as good as a $700+ phone should be.

I've also seen and been scared of the reviews about logos falling off, screen burn in, and that blue. I just don't know if I'll like that blue metal ring around it. But I figured if I don't like the blue I can just put it in a case. Or worse yet just send it back and keep the note 4. But I highly doubt I'll keep the note with the problems it has. Granite for the most part there minor but still aggravating.

I loved my nexus 5 except battery, so if the 6 has a battery that last a day and with those speakers in sure to love it. Just wish tmobile carried the white version since the metal sides are silver,

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schockfroster:
I had the same problem when ordering my new phone. But one of the main reasons against Samsung was the lack of high quality materials. My last two phones were Samsung and they were pure plastic. Sure there are phones feeling even better but I was like WOW when taking the Nexus 6 out of its box. The other reason was the pure (but rooted) android. I hate all the Samsung TouchWiz and HTC Sense and stuff like that.

Beside these things you are posting in the Nexus 6 board here so I guess the major part of the users will say you did the right choice! :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codygs83:
I can't comment on the note 4.

I came from the 2013 motoX.

I could easily say it was the best phone I've ever used despite the camera issues.

Motorola in my opinion makes one of the best quality devices out there.

They're warranty is great and if any of these issues involving burn in or letters coming up effect you I'm sure they would gladly replace your device as I know they have in the past with all Motorola devices that have issues.

But I for one got the white model because the blue model doesn't look near as classy. The blue metal ring around it looks terrible and looks more of a bluish purple color.

However I bought my nexus 6 for the development community, screen size, and front facing speakers.

The camera has blown me away so far.

Even low light shots turn out incredibly well and exceed my expectations of a camera phone.

I for one don't think you will be disappointed. But you make the call!

And enjoy!!

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garrettstump:
I am curious as to why there is very little dev's supporting the lg g3. The samsung on the other hand is being supported alot almost make me think i made a mistake getting the lg g3 but i do really like the phone. I guess i was spoiled before the lg because i had all htc phones and there was an unbelievable amount of support for the evos. so what do you guys think are we at the height of our support or will there be more devs picking this phone up?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK00280:
Yes, more people bought it, so there are more devs.

What exactly you want developed for G3?

Kernels? Nah, you can't jump higher than lg did. It's already optimised. You can, of course, add some GCC flags, change toolchain, etc etc etc... For a marginal improvement, at best. Well, you can add undervolting, some modules (ntfs, gamepads, etc), advanced sound control... What else?..

Roms? Well, developing "only for G3!" roms isn't the best idea. Besides, some popular AOSP roms are already ported to g3, ones that haven't been ported don't even have stable 5.0 builds yet. Modding stock rom is almost impossible right now, apktool doesn't fully support neither 5.0, neither lg's special apk's (two apk's with id of 127 sharing resources? LG-way, lol.), so good custom roms aren't even possible yet.

And no, we won't get more support. If you want tons of support - buy Samsung.
