[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethan3686:
Somehow my password pattern is suddenly not detectable and it shows as wrong password. As there is no more option in lollipop for "forgot password" and using the gmail account to log in. How do I reset the password on a HTC M8 without doing a reset? I've tried logging into the google account, and I can use the "find" option in the device manager to locate the device, but if i press the "lock" button and try to enter a new password, for a split second it says

"We have sent a lock request to the device"

, but then it says

"Since Google has verified that a screen lock is already set, the password you entered won't be needed."

Wtf is going on? I am stuck with a pattern locked phone of whose password i know but the phone doesnt detect it anymore. Is there another way to reset the password?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Well.......

Let me start by saying that this is a delicate matter, what if the device is stolen and somebody wants to get the info or device to work without wiping it. I know that this is probably not your intention and that it is hard to prove otherwise. But the possibility could be there in the worst case scenario !

Now don't get the above personal, it's written from another point of view, as i am running HTC phones for the past 6 years and never encountered this all of a sudden at any point. So from my point of view i find it difficult to believe.

To get to your point ...... not sure if it can be done otherwise but to reset the device. Depends if it's rooted or not for instance ?

Cheers

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vcek:
According to the story, looks like either : 3rd party apps are interfering (can also be malware/virus) OR someone physically got hold of the device and changed the password(perhaps he thinks its his own)

Try restarting the device while holding the volume up button only, android will go into safe mode and disable all 3rd party apps. If the password still doesn't work, then you have 2 options:

1) if S-ON : factory reset and lose all user data

2) if S-OFF or bootloader unlocked: remove password (this is the most details I can give without being an accomplice)

Updated version on play store! And need people to translate for Dutch, Romanian, and Slovenian.
[Android Apps and Games] Sc4ryB3ar:
Seems interesting, going to give it a whirl
[Android Apps and Games] Dri94:
Let me know how it goes! There seems to be a bug with offer wall as if currently. Releasing update to take that out until it's fixed. Everything else is a go!
[Android Apps and Games] Dri94:
So all bugs (that I know have are now all fixed). Offer Wall is still being worked in with an ETA of three days. But seeing as you earn 200-600 satoshi from watching v unlimited videos alone in sure you'll be on until then ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Sc4ryB3ar:
Ok, so I'm very very new to this whole virtual coin thing.... Dont quite understand, but figured i try it.... How do satoshi convert to bitcoin?
[Android Apps and Games] Frazew:
I'm new too, but one satoshi is a hundredth of a millionth bitcoin.
[Android Apps and Games] Dri94:
Offer wall is working now. The person is right a satoshi is one hundred millionth of a btc. With the ability to earn up to 6000000 (it's actually more now because I made it unlimited ads instead of every 5 min) you can earn up to 15.84 USD worth of btc a day. Bitcoin is the most popular and widely accepted virtual currency and without spending thousands on a mining machine is really hard to earn it. This app is the resolution for that. Theoretically in one month you can earn $450 with this app. That number will increase as I add more planned features ;)
[Android Apps and Games] CellPhish:
How does the offer wall work? There's one option where you install and run mixradio, which I did. But I don't see anything claimed?
[Android Apps and Games] Dri94:
The offer wall takes around 15 min to award you your credits. Sometimes you have to simply open it again later and your credits will be rewarded...

So apparently people love my app note than expected. Accumulate funds but wait until next update to claim

Has anyone tried this and earned free money? Lol
[Android Apps and Games] Dri94:
You can see in our reviews that people have. Actually so much they have drained my btc account so I have to replenish for me users.

Today while testing for bugs with the next update I've accumulated 233756 satoshi. And I haven't been on it much. Try it. Earn 10k satoshi. (Which is just about five minutes of use). And redeem. Just to show it works. Our funds are low from how fast people earn so big orders won't go through until the July 10th.

And if we're not the fastest earning so on the store you let me know and I'll fix that to.
[Android Apps and Games] Frazew:
I have tried it and it is the fastest way I've seen to earn some extra money for "free". I mean, waking the phone and entering 2-3 captcha's really isn't hard. Thank you, this is some great work ! (I'm waiting to redeem :D)
[Android Apps and Games] Dri94:
Thanks! Feel free to leave us a review. Still waiting on coinbase but i see a lot of pending transactions in my bitcoin account lol so itll be coming through soon. And let me know of any new features you guys might be interested in.
[Android Apps and Games] Frazew:
Well, I already left a review on the Play Store ! I guess the only problem is that the offer wall doesn't always work :/
[Android Apps and Games] Dri94:
Give me more details. And if ypu dont mind enable google analytics. If you did something to earn we will find out what happened
[Android Apps and Games] Frazew:
I don't remember and don't really mind ! :) It only happened twice and it's just installing and launching an app so it's not much. I already have enabled Google Analytics so it may be in there. I don't have more details to give though. I guess the problem comes from the fact the android kills BitRich to free some memory and because of that it isn't woke up when the play store sends the signal.
[Android Apps and Games] Dri94:
Ok. I do know what offerwalls don't say is it has to be the first time you downloaded that app for particular ones. Let me know if it keeps happening. In regards to the offerwall listener being closed i might have a solution but ill be away from home for the next couple days for vacation. Itll be a week or two for the next update (im putting in more ways to earn also). Remember if it gets to happening to often let me know. Ill do everything i can to make things right.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dpoverlord:
Hey Guys!

First I read the other threads and they were no help. I am coming from a Rooted Note 3 and all I can say is I wish the Note 3 OS had not updated since I NEVER would have purchased this Note 4.

My issue is as follows:

1. When I am on a Voice call 75-90% of the time my phone goes straight to Voicemail . This happens if another person call even when my phone has 0 calls and I have a full signal. Call waiting does not pick up, nor do I get a beep / msg.

2. This is my second brand new Note 4 from Verizon as I had the same issue with the first phone. I have not re-installed Google Voice, however, I did not notice one issue. On my Note 3 when a call came into the phone and I did not pick up, Google Voice would ring while I was in Gmail. For some odd reason on my Note 4 this does not occur. Is this the culrpit? If so how do I fix Google Voice to Ring my GMAIL? Is it possible the new rollout of Google Hangouts disabled the ability to ring your computer Gmail Google Voice if your phone (Note 4) does not pick up/ you are busy. All I get is a Google Voice Missed Call

3. Every call after about 1 hr gets dropped and then I can get no calls until I reboot my phone / Give it a good few minutes. At this point I get bombarded with incoming data (Facebook/whatsapp/emails). I used to have Facebook set to a 3 hr Refresh interval but it seems now Facebook deleted this option. Anyone have fix for this to test?

Really would appreciate any help
[XDA Assist] estatico888:
While I was in my Team Win recovery in the section Advanced wiping I deleted everything even the system. Now my Moto X 2013 bought in France doesn't turn on anymore, it just displays the warning page that informs me that my bootloader is unlocked, from there I can just go in the recovery. I tried to reflash the stock french room of Android 4.4 (that I have already flashed successfully a while ago) from AP Fastboot using RSD lite, but this time it didn't work, on my phone is displaying this error:

downgraded security version

update gpt_main version failed

preflash validation failed for GPT.

:crying:

I have searched on google if someone had this problem too and I have found that it is due to when you want to pass from a newer version of android to an older one for exale from 4.4 to 4.2 . I think this is true because before I wiped everything I had android lollipop 5.1 and now I am trying to install android 4.4 . If you agree with me and think that it is the problem could you please tell me where I can get the zip file of Android 5.1 (the file of the firmware) that I will have to install using AP Fastboot?

[Moto X General] kGospel:
Last week a friend of mine decided it was time for my Moto X to retire and unwillingly broke its screen by putting a weight on it at the gym. I would now like to retrive the data it contained (especially the photos) but it's not that simple, since my phone was pin-protected and it was completely stock. As of right now neither the touchscreen nor the display are working.

Any advice on how to proceed?

Thanks in advance.
[Moto X General] mrmidnight:
For starters, hopefully the PCB didn't get damaged, also, for the people that know how to work with this phone better than I, what is the model of the phone, was the bootloader locked or unlocked, did you have a custom recovery onboard
[Moto X General] kGospel:
Yeah, sorry for lacking details. My phone is the XT1052, and I have no custom recovery nor root on my phone. Plus the boot loader is locked.

I wanted to solve this myself, but maybe the guys over at Motorola's assistance could help me?
[Moto X General] raddacle:
They would tell you to send it in if it's still under warranty and give you a replacement, no data retrieval. There was another thread recently from someone who had a similar issue. I'd read that to see where it went (not that long of a read). Its not entirely clear what happened to the user, though you can pm him/her to see if the feedback given actually worked. Here's the thread http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/headless-mobo-data-retrieval-t3125471
[Moto X General] kGospel:
Yeah, it is still under warranty, however I believe the one time free replacement policy is only available in the US.

As far as my problem is concerned is there any way to control the input of the phone via an external input? (Maybe connecting it to a computer?)
[Moto X General] raddacle:
You could use an OTG cable with mouse/keyboard
[Moto X General] Ezekial:
With nothing at all on the screen, I would be very concerned the PCB is broken. Do you get any vibrations when attempting to power on and off? How about when you call it, does it ring?
[Moto X General] kGospel:
I honestly haven't tried to call myself since my SIM card now lives on another phone. However the phone does vibrate when turning on.

Plus, when I discovered it was broken one small part of the screen (upper right corner) still showed battery percentage and network connectivity. Now even that part doesn't seem to be working.
[Moto X General] alenym:
When you connect the phone to the computer, is it recognized?

As far as I remember, you don't need the screen to work in order to unlock the bootloader via the Motorola website (if you can get your serial elsewhere or already signed in Moto Care). You could do that and use adb pull, granted you know what exact files you want to retrieve.

What do you want to retrieve exactly? If it's totally stock, chances are that things like contacts, calendar and etc were already cloud synced to your google account. (Or even pictures if you activated that)
[Moto X General] tormin:
The Moto X will not illuminate the screen if the AMOLED display layer is cracked. If the phone acts like it's working (vibrates on boot etc) then you probably just have a broken screen. Have you tried to turn it on and plug it in to a computer and just copy the data off? You could also replace the display if you're so inclined with a refurbished display assembly. I've seen them as low as $40 on ebay. Disassembly is not overly difficult if you have an appropriate heat source and a T3 torx screwdriver.
[Moto X General] cntryby429:
I just replaced a shattered screen on the wife's moto x last night. The screen still works but looks like hell. I was about to throw it out but you can have it if you promise to reimburse my shipping costs. I can even give you a few tips based on my experience following the ifixit guide online and I'll even send along the cheap (but good enough) t3 & t5 torx screwdrivers that came with it. Let me know.
[Moto X General] kGospel:
Hi guys, I apologize not having been here for a while, but I have been out of town for the last couple days.

When I connect the phone to the computer it does get recognized in the sense that Windows does recognize it as a periferial and makes its annoying sound, but it then isn't accessible nor it does show up as an external device.

Is this enough to unlock its bootloader via Motorola's website?

Also, the phone regularly powers on and vibrates while booting on. I guess this should be a good sign.

You guys are amazing, I really appreciate your offer, but I honestly cannot accept it.
[Moto X General] alenym:
I guess it is! However I genuiely don't know if the X is supposed to be detected by default or if you need to install the Motorola Drive. I guess you should give it a try! Try installing the Motorola Device Manager (available directly from the Moto website, just google it and it should be the first result), it comes with drivers for the Moto X. Plus you'll need it to unlock the bootloader.

The bootloader unlock is also quite easy. To be honest it was my first contact with the Android SDK (the Moto X being my first cellphone :D ) and I had no real problem apart setting the drivers and stuff (there is a very detailed step-by-step guide in the Moto X General section btw, very useful! The one provided by Motorola isn't bad neither).

You didn't say what exactly you wanted to get back by the way!

PS: I'd put the links if I could, but I can't atm because I didn't reach 10 messages yet. I think this is my tenth, so I'll try editing the post afterwards and see if it works.

[Moto X General] kGospel:
Thank you once more! However, as of right now, I'm not sure whether my phone is functinal or not. Here's what I can tell you:

After I hold the power button down for a while the phone vibrates as if it was turning on. Then after about a minute or so it does vibrate again but with lower intensity, as if there where unread notifications on the phone (which could be possible).

However, neither my MacBook nor my Windows PC seem to recognize the phone. Any idea?
[Moto X General] mrmidnight:
In order for the Macbook to recognize it you need to download an app called Android File Transfer. It is not in the App Store, however Google is the author. I use it pretty regularly and it is awesome!
[Moto X General] tormin:
Have you installed the Motorola device drivers? You said your phone was pin-protected. I tried connecting my phone to the PC and my phone would not enable the media device connection to the PC until I entered the pin. I don't know if the touchscreen remains functional even if the display underneath is broken, but you could try it.

---------- Post added at 12:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

Another option you could try is to unlock your bootloader, flash TWRP recovery, and boot into TWRP. I believe TWRP will present an adb interface and that should allow you to pull your files.

I just tried it out. I didn't even need to use adb, TWRP showed up as a portable device and I was able to simply drag and drop files off the device.
[Moto X General] kGospel:
Sorry if I hadn't been detailed enough: in my previous attempts I already had the Motorola drivers installed, and I also tried with the Android File Transfer App but nothing has worked so far.

I guess unlocking the bootloader seems like my best option as of right now, however I thought unlocking the boot loader erased all the data from the phone which would mean I'd lose the photos I'm trying to recover if I did.
[Moto X General] tormin:
That... is true. You don't want to unlock the bootloader.
[Moto X General] cntryby429:
Final offer on shipping you my busted but functional screen I just replaced. I kinda like the idea of paying it forward to the xda community which has been so helpful to me in the past. No strings, just reimburse my shipping once you get it.
[Moto X General] mrmidnight:
kGospel, I would take his offer. He is offering to send you the screen and then have you pay for it.

That may be your only option to save you files outside of paying out the yingyang for a new screen
[Moto X General] s5610:
That's true. It's pointless.

Another NO is that you can't reach phone internals through ADB until USB Debugging is enabled in Developer options, so it's tricky. Btw, if you had digital PIN there, then a keyboard via OTG will let you enter. And at least storage will be visible. I also suggest you to agree LCD proposal. It's 100% sure solution )
[Moto X General] FirePsych:
Hi Folks,

I have a similar situation.

XT1060 stock, locks, unroofed.

Screen is shattered and the display is black.

The phone turns on, alarm still works and voice commands still work, I just can't see anything on the screen.

My computer doesn't recognize it when I plug it in, but I'm running Win 10 dev preview so itcould be a driver issue. I've uninstalled everything and will reinstall the Moto drivers next chance I get.

I plugged it into my Win 7 work computer with the same result.

I don't know if I had left ADB debugging enabled before I dropped it.

Any ideas?
[Moto X General] scryan:
If you have adb debbugging on then use it, if your not sure give try and find out.

I know everyone here is elite hackers who don't need manuals ect... But ADB is one of the most simple tools, created by google and designed to work with all android phones... Learn how to use BEFORE ****ing everything is a VERY good idea.

Specifically, you want to learn how to push/pull and change directories/list files.

Is there an application that can be placed as an icon in the Taskbar to turn the WiFi ON or OFF without opening up the Comm Manager program? I have one for BT, but I can't find the same application for WiFi.
[General Topics] Ward:
I use a button remapping tool for this:

http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus_t.html

AE Button Plus is a small app that can rebind your hardware buttons. It has the ability to bind the actions: toggle wifi and toggle BT. I use it on my XDA Orbit - I've set it so that holding down the messaging button for a second toggles BT and holding down the IE button toggles wifi.

You could bind the red and green phone buttons for this, or even the volume slider. E.g. holding the volume slider up for 1 second to toggle BT.

But if you need the taskbar icon BatteryStatus might do the trick.
