[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] natan:
Hello.

I have a T-mobile Mda and yesterday it began to do wacky things:

When I press the power button to wake the device from sleep, the phone volume balloon pops up and all the indicators go down. As if somone is holding the "down" button and not letting it go. When I manually change the volume, it goes back down again. When I press "start menu" it shows up for a second and then disappears. It seems as if the buttons are stuck, but they can't be. I did not drop the phone nor there was any physical damage done to it.

When I press the big "select" button the problem seems to go away, but resurfaces when the device goes to sleep and then back from sleep.

What could possibly cause this and how to fix it?

Thanks!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] hotdog53:
Since this just begun happening, it sounds like recent software you installed is corrupted and causing this. If you did install software just prior to this, uninstall the software then power off and on your device.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] travolie:
im having the same problem with my volume control going haywire, and random letters being displayed on the screen. but this happened after, which i now realize was an incomplete upgrade crossbow cause my device was cid-locked. i followed the "g4 hard spl (cid unlock)" topic, then upgarded to the "touch" rom, but i still get the same problem. any insights?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] zabardast_1:
'Do a Hard Reset' of the phone,although you'll loose all your personal data,contacts messages etc...,but phone will reset to default settings and erase all corruptions,otherwise do a reflash.

Cheers !
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] travolie:
i tried doing a "hard reset" but it wont work. the screen says to push the 'send' button, but when i do the button doesn't respond. so i tried a reflash but im still getting the same problems. do i need to reflash to an older rom, then upgrade again? if so, where can i get an older rom version, or perhaps the qtek 9100 original rom?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] travolie:
so i undid the hard spl lock, and reflashed my phone with the vodaphone qtek 9100 rom package. everything seems fine when the battery is full, but as the battery power goes down the problems become more frequent. the phone thinks buttons are being pressed, ala the lights on the keys are on, the volume constantly goes up and down, contacts open. can anyone help me? i dont know what left to do:confused:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rocketrobot:
Me too, it is if the down button is being held down.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] travolie:
need to bumps this thread. really need some help to fix this. its really frustrating me:mad:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] travolie:
two weeks and still no progress

someone? anyone? guide me and any others who are having this problem in the right direction. dont want to give up this phone, i really like it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] McBeth:
Same problem over here

Is you’re problem fixed or still the same... My phone is doing exactly the same.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] travolie:
my phone is still not working properly. cant find any solutions
[LG Optimus G Pro] ShadowCodeGaming:
Like thte title says, is this phone still good? How does it run with lollipop?
[LG Optimus G Pro] MudaTrucka:
I think so, it's a pretty fast phone and still has active rom support (if you're into flashing roms). The camera is great, speakers are pretty good, screen looks really nice so yeah i think it is still worth getting and it's cheaper than most phones with the same specs.
[LG Optimus G Pro] Affangta:
I bought it a month ago..It's great.
[LG Optimus G Pro] XadRav:
To be completely honest, if I could go back to when I bought this phone, I would buy a Nexus 5 instead. Lollipop support is so-so really, NFC doesn't work, getting it working with T-Mobile can be tricky some times, and battery life on Lollipop is not so great since getting it to deep sleep is kind of a crap shoot. Nexus 5 is faster, has much more support so you don't need to flash roms, battery is great, camera in my experience is pretty close to as good as the G Pro. When I bought this phone I was hoping Nexus 4 or 5 roms would easily port over since their all made by LG, but man was I wrong there... This weekend I restored it back to stock AT&T 4.4 because I was getting so pissed off every time something wasn't working properly (and I want to use Google Wallet/Android Pay again), and I'm now just playing the waiting game until Christmas when I'll get the new Nexus 5. I'm just so sick of playing tech support for my phone every week when something goes wrong, and having to choose between having stability with a two year old version of Android or having the latest and greatest, but it's unstable. Sorry for the rant, but that last part is the entire reason why the ONLY Android device I will every buy again is a Nexus, and if the new Nexus 5 somehow disappoints and I'm jumping ship to the iPhone. Maybe I'm wrong, but I really don't feel like I should have to choose between getting timely updates and stability, and only the iPhones and Nexus (and motorola to a point) offer this.
[LG Optimus G Pro] hawkwind212:
This phone is now a poor man's nexus. A phone still with decent spec for under $200. So instead of asking if it's still worth to get it, ask how much money can you spend.

Found this...

Anyone bought from them before? Thoughts?
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jdfrye:
Thanks for the post. Just ordered it with expedited shipping. Should be here next week will post pictures if someone already hasn't.

I'd really like a Spigen Clear Back Hybrid like my son has. the back is hard but the sides are a rubbery hard plastic.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OH4I2LY/ref=cm_sw_su_dp

but this will do untill i find something else better

Look at this one released on the 25th:

[X Style (Pure) Accessories] RemnantKing2:
Something interesting that I found is that Supcase also has cases for sale on Amazon for the Pure even though there isn't anything about them on their site. Release date isn't till the 25th-30th however.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] StreetkillnHD:
Have the case posted in op its crap

---------- Post added at 02:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:32 AM ----------

It's a hard plastic 2 piece ****ty snapon case that is so slippery and rubbish I stick with the bumper..
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] BigTrimma:
I have it as well. I don't like it at all, feels cheap but then again it is cheap. I guess it will have to do until I find something quality that I like.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Oaklands:
Same here.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Locklear308:
Alright, good to know. Glad we could all warn others haha :D
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jdfrye:
the warning didnt get to me fast enough. I have it coming.

I might use it anyway untill something better comes since I'm a painter and if i grab my bamboo with painted hands might not be so good
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] mtva24:
Ordered this case as well. A crappy case is better than no case on this beauty...
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Oaklands:
Thatwhy i went on and ordered it. Better than nothing. I wanted the dust to settle a little then pick out something i really like.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jdfrye:
finally got mine in the mail. it feels so much better than the included bumper. this will be my case till tomorrow when my incipio case comes
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Locklear308:
Interesting...does it feel solid?
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] jdfrye:
It feels solid but if you think about it, if it were to fall and hit on the corner then it might split apart and not bounce like a TPU case which would maybe damage the phone more likely.

But I like almost as well as the Incipio Octane case I have.

I like that you can feel the metal buttons on the side
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Senshi34:
This looks like the exact one offered by "Storm-Buy" on Amazon. I imagine it's from the same Chinese company. Either way I have this case on my phone and I personally like it.

Now it's not perfect but it does what I really need it to do. I was looking for a clear case that would show off the back, while protecting my phone from basic scratches and bumps, and not adding too much bulk. I don't think it's going to be as good as other cases for drops and falls but works fine for minor protection.

You can see what looks like leftover marks, probably from the manufacturing process. Not really super noticeable but you can see them. Since it is a 2-piece snap-on case there is a bit of flex by the volume button and it is a bit slippery. But the case is solid and snug on the phone. It also provides a lip on top so the screen is protected when face down on a flat surface. It's also not likely to come apart. I actually have a hard time taking it off that I feel I'm going to break it when I try. For $8 I'm not going to complain.

If you are a bit rougher on you phones, then I recommend a different one but for basic scratches this one isn't terrible.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Half Decaf:
I've been using this case for about a week now and I think it is fine. It will definitely protect the wood back (ebony) from scratches., and it was inexpensive -- I doubt it will offer much protection from a drop. I'll move on when I see another clear case that is deemed to be tough and low profile.

The ebony wood back is very very nice - very glad I selected that option.
[X Style (Pure) Accessories] Oaklands:
Mine shipped and never made it. They gave me a quick refund. I was impressed they refunded my money so fast.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djhudjr:
I have been rooted for a few months now and need to get a replacement phone from vzw. I have been searching for the better part of 2 days on how to completly unroot my nexus 6. i used the method used in "[HOW-TO] The Nexus 6 All-In-One Beginner's Guide By xBeerdroiDx" to root it. Which installed TWRP, with any other phone ive rooted i could just go to SuperSU and click full unroot and it would do it. That is not the case now. Can i get a step by step directions from someone on how to unroot my phone please.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
sure.. get the factory image from the google site, download it to your computer, unzip it, then flash each part of it individually via fastboot while youre in your bootloader. thats the only real way to "unroot" a device.every othet way removes root but keeps the changed files. so they think that youre still rooted.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djhudjr:
So after i flash each part it will be "Unrooted" or do i have to delete anything else?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
nope, thats it. but, to finish, you want to make sure that you will boot first, then youll have to relock your bootloader at the very end :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
if you want the phone clean, you will need to use -w command in fastboot to wipe all the data also.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
ive never wiped before flashing a factory image(i assumed it does it automatically before flashing each partition), but that can be a good idea as well :good:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
-w only wipes the data partition as far as i know.

i havent dissected the files for this phone, but all past device img's i have, has a wiping command of some sort in there somewhere.

its usually something like "erase userdata" or similar.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djhudjr:
the files are .tar and .tgz my computer wont recognize them am i doing something wrong?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
you need software to open the archives. i think win rar may do it, but im not positive.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djhudjr:
ok so noob it down because i cant seem to figure out how to flash it from my pc to my phone. it isnt showing up
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you need fastboot(and adb for other things). you can get that from google or you can search google for a smaller download. its in the sdk( i believe), but that download is huge. i installed a fastboot for dummies version a few years back, with adb as well, and ot turned out to be only 35mb.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addcancercat:
I spent two hours with "AT&T CUSTOMER SERVICE" Wednesday night trying to get them to activate a brand new sim card I had them mail to me in November 2014. So if anything ever happened to my Nexus 6, like the charging port being so loose, that I had to have a wireless charging pad two days shipped to me, because my Nexus 6 wouldn't accept a charge anthing cable or chargers. I tried over a dozen. Two hours and they were unsuccessful. They have my att. net email account wrong that I have had for almost 6 years wrong. So she couldn't email me the pin verification. I spent four hours yesterday at a friend's house using their cell phone, landline and computer, had my real att. net email address open and went through four different agents that for one reason or another could not get that sim card verified or the last guy said "he wasn't going to risk his job and my security, (lol), and activate my sim card when my sim card number isn't even close to the number the same unused brand new sim card AT&T sent me in November, so I could switch back to my Samsung Galaxy S4.

I got the same girl that tried to help me by using her cell, her new Samsung tablet for the first two hours with customer service drive me to another an AT&T Store, a 60 MILE ROUND TRIP. I walked in told the manager about the six hours of the frustrating unsuccessful attempts to get this S4 activated. He took the back off, popped the battery out, scanned the IMEI, put the battery in it, put the back on and handed it back to me in about two minutes and powered it up and said that it should work now. It did. I told him that I bet you could train two monkeys to activate sim cards, it's not THAT complicated. I used to switch cells back and forth all the time years ago on Verizon. Why doesn't AT&T have a set up like that? That works?

I need to send it back to Motorola, so they can send me a brand NEW Nexus 6, instead of AT&T sending me a refurbished replacement that I am paying $750.00 for? A cell that now sells for less than half what I am paying for this one.

Sorry for the long post. Thanks for any help or answers in advance.

From what I have read you can't flash a zip of the factory image and make TWRP and SuperSU and Busybox without being able to connect Nexus 6 to a computer using a usb cord.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
nope. the only real way to "unroot" is to flash a factory image, make sure that you boot, then lock your bootloader.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addcancercat:
Wonderful! Lol. Thanks for the reading all that and the lightning speed response.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
no problem. most of what you wrote even has nothing to do with the issue anyways. or just brought in details leading you to this point ;)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addcancercat:
So, I take Motorola will flip out when I send this cell that AT&T was told by Motorola that the first shipments of AT&T Nexus, 6's were defective from the factory. Of course AT&T did not tell their customers that they were notified by Motorola.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addcancercat:
You do realize my charging port is so loose, I'm waiting for it to fall out?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
i remember that, i thought everybody knew, since it was in the news. na, they wont freak, theyll happily help you out :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addcancercat:
Bingo! simms22 you're the man! I was going to come back to post comments ??
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] addcancercat:
I called Motorola and told the rep I just had a quick question about a friend's Nexus 6. Then 3/4's through the story I slipped to My Nexus 6 lol. She totally understood. And said that it was fine.

A. Phone, Router & Firmware info:

1. My Phone	: MotoG XT1033 Asia [Nov 2013 Model INDIA]

2. My WiFi Router	: DSL-2750U_ADSL_Modem (U1, IN_1.08)

3. Root/Mod Status	: No Mods, Not Rooted (Normal)

4. Old Firmware	: Lollipop 5.0.2 [220.21.28] Stock

5. New Firmware	: Lollipop 5.1 [221.21.56]

6. Update method	:

a) File "Blur_Version.221.21.56.falcon_umtsds.AsiaRetail.en.03.zip" downloaded in PC. (file md5-checksum = 94856deaaa3f23a1163120b362cbaef10, 208.7 MB )

b) File copied to phone's sdcard/Internal memory.

c) "apply update from sdcard" thru phone's BootLoader/Recovery menu.​

effect same as update thru OTA file, but safer.

7. Updated Date	: Sep 12, 2015.

8. Status	: Update successfully installed.

9. Post update actions	: wiped cache partition (thru fastboot & recovery menu)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Issues with 5.0.2 solved in 5.1 (Sep-2015), as experienced/Tested by me

1. WiFi re-connection issues after disconnect, with Channel-13 or auto-channel, earlier in 5.0.2.

(eg: when enforced WiFi disable/enable or by moving out/in of Wifi range).

These issues are solved in 5.1, even with Channel-13 selected (either manually or auto).

2. When an incoming call, is not picked-up even after screen timeout time (say 15 secs), then ringing stops, & display switches off. Accepting the call after this is very difficult. This issue is solved in 5.1

3. Gallery Application fails/ Misbehaves.

Albums/Videos, shows blank squares/Tiles. Problem temporarily solves on reboot, but only for one invocation. This issue is solved in 5.1

4. Two Photo icons in App Drawer. This issue is solved in 5.1.

5. The phone lagging response issues seems to be improved, if not altogethor solved.

At least it is more responsive (response time faster), and smoother to operate, than in 5.0.2.

But the final verdict on this can only be provided after some extended time of usage (say few weeks or more).

Earlier with 5.0.2 it was horrible, especially as time went by, and I was planning to revert to stock Kitkat-4.4.4.

So I want to know others experience regarding phone resposniveness w.rt 5.0.2 in 5.1

6. I am not facing any early Battery drainage issues in 5.1 w.r.t 5.0.2, as reported by some others.

In my opinion, if only it is better. But not sure (feedback only with couple of days usage)

Anyway surely not very bad than earlier.

7. CPU SpyPlus now reports 300 Mhz as min scaling freq, as against 787 Mhz in 5.0.2.

I am sot sure how significant this is. But some people reported this as a problem in 5.0.2

The highest reported freq is 1190 Mhz.

Incidentally some people are referring to this update as 5.1.1 instead of 5.1, here in these & related forums.

I am only seeing Android Version as 5.1 in : Settings --> About Phone Menu.

with Baseband version = MSM8626BP_1032.3116.98.00R and

Kernel version = 3.4.42-g89906d6

So I dont know whether Motorola is released or releasing any newer version 5.1.1 other than this one.

I think people are confusing this with 5.1.1.

I would like to hear other experts comments regarding this.
[Moto G General] thuva06:
Even i updated my moto g XT1033 (India) model yesterday. Was running on CM12.1 before so had to flash 5.0.2 stock and then got the OTA update directly.

The changes are minor but what matters is performance and RAM Management and Battery Life.

1. The performance as mentioned by the OP has really improved. Device feels snappier and more usable then 5.0.2

2. I see many people even after updating to complaining about memory leaks but personally in my device i have 300-400mb of memory free (I have downloaded and updated all the apps and many apps like facebook whatsapp etc are running in background)

3. Another major change that i was able to notice was the battery life has improved (comparing to both cm12.1 based /AOSP based/ 5.0.2 stock) specially the stand by time went to bed with 90% and woke up with around 84% (where in cm12.1 it was used to be 70%)

am personally happy with this update even though it was too late. I'd appreciate if motorola could push the 5.1.1 update too since that does not contain any major changes (security patches).

PS: YOUR BOOTLOADER WILL GET UPDATED TO 41:1A this doesn't mean you cannot flash or root. You can flash and root by the same procedures but make sure to use the latest TWRP AND SUPERSU ZIPS.
[Moto G General] Mustajab Is'haq:
Hey OP thanks for the post.

Can you also check if the Screen going completely black issue has been solved as well?

If you check Adaptive Brightness in

Settings>Display and reduce the brightness via the slider the screen goes black. It's like the phone is off, but it's really not. (be careful, don't forget where the slider is so you can crank it up again).

Can you confirm if this is still present in 5.1?

Thanks a lot!
[Moto G General] gulu2:
Do you experience any battery drain bug such as Google Play Store or the infamous mobile standby drain ? Would love to hear your feedback about this. Last time I've tried some 5.1 custom roms they had this bug, which prompted me to switch back to 4.4.4.

Thanks.
[Moto G General] enban:
Hi guys, thanks for your reports.

Could you please comment about the "mobile data active" issue? Is it solved or, at least, mitigated in 5.1?

Thanks!
[Moto G General] gmp009:
no its solved in android 6.0. Its google bug.
[Moto G General] kingsukpasari:
That problem solved too

Screen goes to black problem is solved too. now we can use adaptive brightness on an lower the brightness to minimum.. :)

Well... It seems like I'm going to skip 5.1 also...

SuperSU: After flashing TWRP with mfastboot through bootloader use this zip to get root

PS: YOU CAN FLASH ANY 5.1.1 ROMS OVER IT WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM
[Moto G General] moralesnery:
You only need to install TWRP on your device and enter recovery mode.

Once there, you go to "Reboot" and then "System", TWRP will ask if you want to root and will run SuperSU script.

When you boot to Android again, TWRP will update itself over Play Store.

I don't know why but my Moto G with 30-35 apps installed (Facebook,messenger, swiftkey etc...) sometimes it's just freeze for like 10-15 seconds and that wasn't happend in 5.0.2.
