I have no problems with apps like Camera! Every Button works as it should and is on its place like befor...no problem!

Everything seams to work normal....

Only APP i have a little Problem is EBay... I have a overlay in "My EBay" but when i open My Reviews and go back the overlays are gone....i can live with that :)

Performance seams to have improve a lot...for Battery its to Early to tell...and every Body uses his phone Different...
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
[MENTION=749980]Enricosteph[/MENTION] I changed the DPI too and can confirm the camera works properly. The gaming improves. Tested on beach buggy, which i couldn't run on full graphics. Now it runs smoothly with shadows n all enabled. Next I'll test on nova 3. It used to lag like ****! Thanks a lot man?☺

Maybe a good idea to create a new Thread bout that? More users could share their experiences.

I am not a gamer at all, but if reducing DPI doesnt compromise with any performance and gets SOT higher do report back testers. I have tried it on my other devices, but there was no major difference.
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
Yes. Good idea. Will do some more testing first.☺

I still get considerable lag when surfing and scrolling in Chrome. i haven't tried doing a factory reset, would you guys recommend that?
[X Play General] K.khiladi:
Yes absolutely.
[X Play General] Enricosteph:
This seams to be a Problem with Chrome! I have also lag when scrolling in Chrome! Factory reset did not fix it! Anybody else facing this isue? Any solution for that?
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
I had this issue on chrome, opera, cm browser.. I rooted and installed squid's kernel. Now the lag it mostly gone :)
[X Play General] Enricosteph:
How is Battery on this Kernel? I'm on pure Stock now and get 6.5h SOT/2 Days...but i'll maybe switch to Squid Kernel....
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
It's been great for me. I played pacman for about an hour, browsed more than an hour, little YouTube, more than an hour of 9gag, some benchmarks were run, very little calling, lots of messaging and other apps like Twitter, Instagram etc I got 8hrs sot from 100%-5% with mostly Wi-Fi. Performance also has stepped up. :) I'd recommend it. Many are happy with it. It's great :thumbup:

Hi, device heating up is normal in X play ? After little use ? 20 mins on the trott.
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
10mins of browsing on chrome using 4g data my phone gets warm. Continued usage will heat it up. Screen gets really uncomfortable if a call comes. I usually dip it in water to get rid of some heat quickly so that I can talk on the phone. But here's the thing with my phone, Single sim, wifi connected, browsing for hours won't heat up my phone(continuous gaming will). Only this 4g data will make it heat up and the battery takes a nosedive too :/ these are what I have noticed.
[X Play General] ProudRed:
I was using 3G data with CM browser. It got heated up after a while... So thought if its normal.. So can we call this a drawback over other devices ?

Btw dipping in water ? Is this phone waterproof ?
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
It's not water proof but apparently water resistant. I've seen videos on YouTube where they dip it for longer periods of time. It's OK if you just pour water on it. Takes of the heat. I used to put my moto milestone in the freezer when it got hot (due to over clocking).

Wow. I never would put devices into water or dipping water on it.. Not in my dreams :eek:

My mom once dropped her motog1 onto a tub of soap water while washing clothes. Nothing happened as we quickly removed it and wiped the water. It's water resistant as Motorola themselves say. So why fear[emoji1]

You shouldn't be dipping, pouring sticking the freezer with any electronic device. A sudden change in temperature will damage your device. Rather you should let cool passively and gradually.

Z3c for an Moto X Play

Hello guys

I'm thinking of changing my Z3 compact by an Moto X Play. What do you think? I will have a good performance and battery?
[X Play General] pijes:
You'll only get bigger screen advantage. Z3C has better performing chip and with smaller screen battery would probably be almost the same
[X Play General] kassu99:
my brother has z3c and i have mxp. better on mxp: screen, battery(maybe, maybe not), camera(better images but no 4k video), vanilla android

worse on mxp: performance, lack of water resistance, lack of gyro.
[X Play General] lvints:
The difference in performance would be very significant? With moderate use with a day of battery?
[X Play General] pijes:
based on antutu points, probably not much difference in performance. both phones use almost stock ui as well. if you don't play games, the x play can easily last you a day with probably 30-40% left in the tank, and get back to 100% within 1 hour with the turbo charging. like I mentioned earlier, you get bigger screen (5.5 inch with 74% screen to body ratio) but you will lose gyroscope (no 360 vr stuff), no 4k recording or full hd at 60fps, waterproofing and the good feel of using a phone with a single hand.
[X Play General] kos25k:
I also wanted to buy a z3c.finally I decided moto x.the main reson was the camera performance of sony mainly in dark areas.

[X Play General] mikroob:
Hello! what you will say about performance of 2 different moto x play? one of them take aprox 45000 in atutu (android 6.0.1) the second take 35000. how can i buy the right variant of phone? i don't want to choose bad sample at store. and i can't test them in antutu.
[X Play General] Dilbert83:
Doesn't really matter at all. The 6.0.1 firmware is available to flash on your phone even if it doesn't ota update to 6.0.1 or ship with it out the box.
[X Play General] mikroob:
is this means that all moto x play devises working identically at 6.0.1? eqals that all of them will take at least 43-44000 in antutu after full wipe.
[X Play General] Dilbert83:
Yep the difference in antutu is purely down to 6.0.1 being better optimised.
[X Play General] -sandro-:
How does it compare with the SD600? I thinking upgrading from the galaxy s4
[X Play General] i_piss_on_apple:
Don't buy moto X play.. It's a ****ty device.. Chip in a little more nd go for sony xperia z4 or moto X style
[X Play General] GtrCraft:
lol, like you can compare those 3....
[X Play General] Nico3d3:
Setting I/O Scheduler to ROW and read-ahead to 512kbs did help a lot. Now anyone know if tweaking low memory killer values would improve performance?
[X Play General] 9rakers:
This is a new phone. It is pure android. Why Motorola can't make good software?. My Nexus 7 2013, 4 and 5 works better, smoothly.

Maybe android can't more.

[X Play General] Devhux:
It's a new processor, and I think Moto erred too much on keeping thermals in check as opposed to maximum performance. I'll wait to see what Marshmallow brings (or whatever Moto gives us an update for)
[X Play General] madcat1990:
Just wait on updates. I'm sure they'll fix it.
[X Play General] DiegoMarcondes:
This app is too strange, does it really work?

No root needed? I've never seen some app to remove lags without root.
[X Play General] Nico3d3:
I'm highly skeptical, the only way I see it could work is by deliberately ensuring that the CPU doesn't go to low frequency mode. Maybe, the program is just there to make sure the CPU is always busy, that way it will always be at high frequency and more responsive, at the price of high energy consumption. Otherwise, it could also simply be placebo effect.
[X Play General] 9rakers:
Motorola must to improve the software. That's it

[X Play General] EnIXmA:

[X Play General] XMoDuLeSx:
Actually the kernel is totally bugged... There is no hotplug driver for the cpu,really strange first time I see this and hope moto update it fast.
[X Play General] ARMx86:
Thanks! Its seens more smooth, when Motorola releases updates i will change back to default to test again.

My clock speed is right? :confused:

Architecture:

4x ARM Cortex-A53 @ 1,65 GHz

4x ARM Cortex-A53 @ 1,15 GHz

Clock Speed:

200 MHz - 1,65 GHz

I faced the most of problems thay you guys mentioned:

have to touch twice because don't recognize on first time

lags switching apps

problems with "Moto" like saying command like Open facebook, she tells me to say the content, i say and nothing happens

saying open Twitter and than Moto open Youtube.

I purchased my X Play on Sept 10. I hope that updates resolve all this problems, my last smartphone is moto x 1st gen and X Play is seens to have more lags than my moto x 1st gen.

Cheers.:
[X Play General] Devhux:
Your clock speeds are correct.
[X Play General] caiko:
What do u expect from a 32 bit OS ?X Play is on 32 bit Android out of the box.Just look Antutu.My guess is Motorola is going to upgrade it with Marshmallow
[X Play General] supercakefish:
There are many other 32bit Android phones that are more powerful than the Moto phone. And there are many 64bit phones that are weaker.
[X Play General] LuizHenrique91:
64-bits systems just aren't 2x faster. They only are able to handle 3~4GB+ of RAM and only are faster on some specif tasks (to handle big numbers, for example). So if the device have some problem on performance, the OS version is not the reason.

Actually I think the software is what Motorola should improve. Maybe the kernel and the integration between software and hardware. I may be wrong, but the X Play is the first Motorola device with the big.LITTLE architecture, right? Maybe they need more time for tunning things right.
[X Play General] ephumuris:
Using cm 12 performance is generally smoother and I'm much happier on it. There is the odd time where it freezes a half second but im sure that will be ironed out. On general much better.

I have many lags too when I'm browsing with Chrome. I have Reset the MXP. By the first Installing I restore my APPS and Preferences from Google Account.

Is the Problem the Restore from Google Account??????
[X Play General] eskamhl:
I don't have particular performance problems with my x play but I noticed this:

Is it normal to have 250MB of swap with swappiness set to 100???
[X Play General] artesanoastur:
Probably moto g performance is better than moto x play. I've checked both on an store y I'm highly disappointed with moto x play. What the hell have you done, Motorola?

Works for me too! Chrome, Tapatalk etc runs now much much better. Before i got stutters and short stops while scrolling. Not as fast like the moto x 2014 but better as before.

Got these Problems Day one like others.

I hope Motorola will look into and give us some fw tweaks soon (+ maybe new drivers with Android 6).

I had HTC m8 and changed for camera and battery and I've been impressed by both, I also think the best I can say is that I prefer using the moto x play and I haven't noticed any drop in performance from the m8, but I don't use alot of 3d games except the asphalt 8 and that runs very well, also the battery and camera compared to the HTC are far superior in my view even in low light situations and the best of all is the handsets affordability means I don't need to be tied into a 2 year contract so I can update handset and use any networks I choose, I've owned aload of phones and this is the best I've owned better than the last really good phone I had which was probably the iPhone 5s, and all I really miss from that is the fingerprint unlock scanner
[X Play General] -sandro-:
Well I know it won't compare to the x style, I asked how it compares to SD 600.
[X Play General] i_piss_on_apple:
10% better

---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 PM ----------

In India moto X play costs 280$ 32gb nd 360 for z3+ or 300$ for z3
[X Play General] GtrCraft:
And I would still buy it over the sony. Specs arent everything.
[X Play General] i_piss_on_apple:
Ok.. Then what is.. They have a better camera.. They are running marshmallow 6.0.1 too.. Plus the performance is better.. I guess that's a reason enough
[X Play General] GtrCraft:
Better battery, better update support (sony is 4 months behind security patches), performance is on par not better on the Z3, better developement support, fast charging and no covers on the ports that break easily.

But by all means buy a Z3 and have fun over on that forum
[X Play General] K.khiladi:
Better camera ? Read the review of GSM arena. Z3 or Z3+ were previous flagships but their camera were nowhere near the other previous flagships. Lots of noise in images. What's the use of better performance if that performance can't be sustained for long due to heating? Performance?

The Z3 is much faster as the Play; if you wanna play (games) much! i didnt play much and for me, the x play its still a great device and my daily driver.

it is always a question what you want to do with the device. The Z3 is for me same league like the moto x2 (but with better cam as the x2)

3)21 mp of mxp at day takes photos mooooore closely to an 21mp camera than sony.at night u can take excellent photos by setting iso to half with moto g unlocked camera.no noise.

4)sound on moto is 4 times louder.

5)signal reception tested side by side with a M4 aqua,in a mountain trip with car,the sony was dropping it's signal.moto not even once!

6)battery.no words.

7)the led is 5 times brighter from every single device I have ever seen.u have to root and flash custom kernel to make it work for notifications.

8)make sure to f. reset when coming from LP.

9)I don't know guys why u all stick to g. chrome.use boat browser that is 1/4 in size and is 2 times faster.

10)moto has 18 months updates and we will take android N

11)from now on...only MOTO!

anything u want guys I am willy to help u in other threads!

Anyone else fed up with this mobile signal drain presents in all 6.0.1 roms. Never had this issue running 6.0. roms and it seems this is an issue presents in all 6.0.1. roms (nexus,samsung) together with the wifi drain. Everyday when i wake up its showing the cell standby drain on top of the list in my battery stats.

You can minimize it if you use dualsim roms on a single sim device with the build.prop tweak but its still draining when idling. Screw 6.0.1, lol
[X Play General] -sandro-:
does it actually drain battery?
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Im not sure, but my sot is not the same since i'm using 6.0.1. Today i flashed the stock factory image for 6.0. and report later to check if it was all imagination or not. :D

I have no wifi drain in 6.0.1 after disabling location scanning. And the signal drain is not there. In battery stats it's all yellow but there is no actual drain. I lose 2/3% battery overnight(7hrs) with 2g data on.
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Running 6.0 for a day now and the mobile standby drain is still present. Still got the feeling my battery last longer. 6h 45m and 34% left which means by the time its reaching 0% I have reached more then 9 hours sot using WiFi only. I'm happy again.

Installed the latest version of L Speed Mod HERE and performance is dramatically smoother (after enabling the mods addressing scrolling & smoothness).

Note that despite the stock kernel not supporting init.d, there is a workaround that allows L Speed to work.

[X Play General] 0l1v3rof:
This might not work for everyone, but this is how I fixed my lag problem

Squid Kernel

Fly on Mod app with Build.prop tweaks, LMK, ZRAM, KSM and FSTRIM

Stock Firmware

Window animation: 0.5x

Transition animation: 1x

Animator duration: 0.5x

Scheduler: row

Read Ahead Buffer: 256

I might have missed out on a few things, but I haven't OC or anything yet. Stock with Squid kernel at 375 DPI. Not all lag is gone but it is so much smoother. Plus RAM management is better and I have tons of apps open, and can flick between most of them without having to relaunch the app. Battery seems the same, but probably has been affected by what I have done.
[X Play General] Devhux:
Not sure if Fly On Mod was really doing anything. Did squid add init.d support to his kernel?
[X Play General] Marco Lomas:
I dont know if helps but, when i changue the buffer value on development options to 16 mb register, all the lag problems was gone!

My phone is in spanish but this is the option
