No Contest!

I still have access to my wife's WM6 (Laurentis ROM) Uni, so can always do direct comparisons.:)

No contest whatsoever! Athena all the way for me.

Very Satisfied, but seriously wish it had the accellerator of the Axim....

Hate the keyboard, waste of time and has caused more scratches then I would have without one.

Love the possibilities on this thing though and having a 5" screen makes it all worthwhile...Universal does just not cut the mustard like the Athena IMHO.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] nuclear:
You gotta be on crack to ask such a question.. who wouldnt be fully satisfied... It has way better performance and structure. I hate putting the Uni to my ear and this ones done it!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] skoop99:
It's great... For about 2 hours a day.

Battery life is atrocious. Using it the way I do, fpr MP3 player, GPS, calls, web browsing, Push Email, the battery dies on me in about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Carry a USB cable or my charger with me at all times now... Love the device itself, tho.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] nuclear:
Wow that was certainly useful information. Thanks skoop99
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] nrm:
Thanks to xda-developers

I love the device more and more as problems get solved. I believe the last major problems to be fixed were the Jabra BT8010 issues - thanks to the program Priority256_fix.

I'm sure I would not have liked the device nearly as much without the help of this forum.

Many thanks!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] nuclear:
Use Plantronics FTW!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] hdubli:
I also have the same feelings as other members have posted.After Update to WM6, I had been facing problem with Bluetooth Sound, I use this as my main phone.I get 100 calls a day and in some cases the caller cannot hear my voice.I use Jabra 8010.

Else, the device is cool.I hv tried disabling Microdrive and battery lasts for 3 days :)

Any one here can make/find disable Microdrive Programatically, then it will b boon.

If I update my Galaxy S5 mini G800H 4.4.2 for the Oficial 5.1.1 Russian version via Odin, my knox will change?

If I do not like the android 5.1.1, I can go back to oficial 4.4.4 without changing the knox too?

My fear is that the lack of RAM memory, problems with wifi and SIM card disturb me.

Note: sorry for my English.

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sasukesama:
you can update without any problems :)

as for the sim&wifi check my thread it will fix them

as for the ram it might show 1GB but the device is smooth and fast

if you want to speed it up even more check my thread "Smooth your TW experience"

I use wireless charger WCD-100 and because i have spigen slim armor case on my phone i have problem with charging. When i put my phone on charger i get message "Charging slowly".

I ask you can i damage my phone or battery if i use it to charge it slowly like that?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivaagarwal1:
Are you using original 1.8 amp charger that came with phone? Any other lower amp charger will give this error.

COMPLETE FAIL. Is this phone too fragile?

Less than 48 hours ownership... Bent down to tie my shoe, phone falls 24 inches from breast pocket, screen totally obliterated and unresponsive. Phone is bricked. Can't unlock. Can't retrieve data. Can't answer calls or read texts or SILENCE ALARMS!!!

This fragility is totally unacceptable. I carried a DROID MAXX HD for 2-1/2 years with only a 3M film screen protector. The MAXX HD suffered numerous cringing falls and rebounds off my foot skittering across asphalt and concrete. Never a scratch on that screen.

I don't see any 3M film screen protectors for the MXPE, only tempered glass. It seems to me that film is superior. Hard tempered glass protectors would seem to transfer shock while plastic film deforms and absorbs shock.

MOTO CARE SUCKS (so far). I immediately purchased Moto Care online (which advertises retroactive coverage if purchased within thirty days). But the Moto web site did not immediately recognize my purchase. Spoke to three uninformative customer (non-) service representatives (with heavy language barriers).

The third rep told me my Moto Care would take up to ten days for "delivery". WHAT? There is nothing to ship! Further, the Moto Care purchase FAQ says nothing about "delivery" delays. The rep says "sorry", there's nothing he can do.

Next day, my Moto Care package magically "appears" on the Moto web site under "My Stuff" and so I click the "Repair" button. I enter all my details and make payment. Now, it's almost been a week and there's no sign of life. I click "Track Repair" and enter my RMA number. Nothing. So, then I attempt to track using my IMEI number. Nothing. Finally, I try it again using my phone number and zip code. Surprise---that one works and I can see I have a repair order, but it's all blanks under "Replacement device, date shipped, etc."

How many days to get a replacement? Who knows.

Any other aftermarket sources to replace a cracked screen?
[X Style (Pure) General] rushless:
I have a film based screen protector. Several options at Amazon. Your experience seems very odd. Is your post a repost? Seems like I've seen it before.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
I've occasionally dropped every phone I've ever owned without damage. This phone literally obliterated from a short drop. Do I have to wrap it in a pillow? I'll check Amazon for film protectors, thanks. Not a re-post here.
[X Style (Pure) General] schaggo:
Go on you guys, wish for even smaller bezels, less protruding chassis and more "edge" effect on the rounded, exposed glassy front surface, larger screens and thinner devices.

Can't cheat physiscs. Where there is no crash zone there is no crash zone.

Nexus 5x prime example: cheap (but soft, dampening) plastic and screen is sunken in. Or Sony, with the rubbery corners on their devices.

The more of the above comes true, the less shock absorbent the devices become. I dont care about a 1mm or 2mm bezel or a crappy unhandy edged glass surface if this means more spiderman-app and less funtime with the device. And I want to make all sh**heads shut up which cry for all of the above, producing crystal cellphones as a consequence. Go get and shatter your iPhones if you want useless, easily breakable, expensive jewellery. I try to actually use and not only show off my devices.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
HEAR, HEAR!!! I'd pay $100 more for a THICKER, HEAVIER device with diamond plate bezel, thick long-lasting battery, and non-ridiculous connectors (i.e, cheap, flimsy USB jacks)---Do you hear me, you USB Implementers Forum designers??? When are you going to design a hardy connector???? USB-C is another disaster design with no thought toward ruggedness. But, oh boy, it plugs in both ways... yippeee!!! NOT.

I actually think there'd be a huge market for a ruggedized military-looking device ("tactical" is the buzz word among the gun/hunter crowd). Slim jewelry phones are for the 21-year old ladies who walk between bars in winter with 4-inch skirts and no sleeves on, and maybe for dentists and lawyers and West Hollywood types. I need a man phone.
[X Style (Pure) General] charlatan01:
Ugh... One tiny drop in the wrong spot will damage any device. Don't drop it, or put a case on it, that simple.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
Simply unacceptable for those who physically work for a living. And, like I said, my MAXX HD survived dozens of drops. I don't feel I should have to expect a 24-inch drop will destroy a phone.
[X Style (Pure) General] amathophobia:
Sorry to hear about your experience. But when the screen glass makes up an edge of the phone then it isnt going to survive drop into hard surfaces. This is why they included a bumper in the box. Keep in mind these things are made of glass and delicate electronics. It would be wise to temper your expectations. I agree about Motorola's customer service. It leaves EVERYTHING to be desired.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
Probably so. My expectations were shaped by my previous device. Can I get a 5.7" MAXX HD 2015 please?
[X Style (Pure) General] Sasquatch8600:
If you are on Verizon look at the Droid turbo 2. Has a5.43-inch QHD display that is said to be shatterproof, Snapdragon 810 with either 32/64GB of storage, along with a 3,760mAh battery.
[X Style (Pure) General] brholt6:
All of that great stuff negated by being tied to Verizon. :)
[X Style (Pure) General] Sasquatch8600:
OP had a Droid MAXX so at one point was on Verizon. Say what you will VZW is still unmatched in coverage area I've had them for 16 years will not change unless I can get my UDP through someone else with no throttling. I use 400Gb/month thanks to root and tether my phone is my ISP no cable bill is awesome.
[X Style (Pure) General] chrisund123:
If you want a phone to last, get a case for it.

I've had 5 smartphones, dropped them all, never had any damage to any of them... Because I've always had them in a £3 case!

Better value than insurance lol.
[X Style (Pure) General] ahhfishstix:
I've dropped my MXPE from a couple a feet up and it has lived to tell the tale. I only use the provided bumper, lucky I guess. Sorry to hear about your clusterf*** of a time trying to get a replacement. Good luck.
[X Style (Pure) General] Faruko:
Breaking a phone screen its pure luck, i had a X 2014 which i dropped SO MANY TIMES and never ever had a problem

Then 1 night, a 10inch drop and BAM screen broken.

And why are you assuming your experience its the general situation with the phone ? I dropped this phone the other day from about the same height, not even a scratch or something thanks to the bumper that came in.

Oh I feel ya [MENTION=7027505]Sasquatch8600[/MENTION] (the app's not letting me quote). I've been with Verizon for 13 years...I just don't think I'll ever get another phone tied to them, or any carrier for that matter. Verizon keeps those phones super locked up and their update history isn't very stellar.
[X Style (Pure) General] Oaklands:
My wife dropped mine about 3 feet while on a cruise last week and my i-blaison case protected it. It hit a metal strip on the edge of a step.
[X Style (Pure) General] countryfolk07:
Mine dropped from about 8 feet, with the included bumper, hitting stuff on the way down. Not a scratch on it. I was very surprised. And lucky, I know. Like someone stated earlier, it's really how it falls/lands.
[X Style (Pure) General] chrisund123:
My eldest knocked mine out of my hand this afternoon, 3ft drop onto a wooden floor, landed corner first.

Case did its job, not a mark on it.
[X Style (Pure) General] ShockTroc:
MOTO SUCKS BECAUSE I DROPPED MY PHONE WITHOUT A CASE ON IT AND IT BROKE! :crying::crying::crying:

MOTO CARE SUCKS BECAUSE THEY ARENT BENDING OVER BACKWARDS TO SELL INSURANCE TO A BROKEN DEVICE! :crying::crying::crying:

I have dropped my MXPE everyday for a month from varying heights including a second story balcony to a cement floor.. Want to know my secret??

A FRICKING CASE YOU IDIOT.

Cry me a frickin river for your first world problems.
[X Style (Pure) General] slaytanic:
Wait. You mean that's what the case and screen protector does for a phone? I didn't know that. -insert sarcasm-
[X Style (Pure) General] jonathanbailie:
This doesn't mean that every 24-inch drop will have the same result. My friend dropped his while on a call from head height. It bit concrete and just banged up the side metal frame and wood back a bit. Still works fine,the screen is perfect and the device overall still looks good.

Any phone will crack if it lands in just the right way. My Nexus 5 dropped about 2 feet, but landed flat on the glass and completely shattered it. This post is not necessarily a testament to the durability of the XPE.

Sorry to the OP for his broken phone, regardless. It ALWAYS sucks.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
For brevity, I didn't mention there was a prior, identical, drop. First 24-inch drop caused significant cracks. Second 24-inch drop obliterated the screen. So the MXPE track record is 2 for 2, while the MAXX HD (with no case) is 0 for 100.

Hence, my experience indicates the majority of 24-inch drops---not just "unlucky" ones---will cause severe damage.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
LOL! Classic STRAWMAN fallacious argumentation, Shock. Get a grip.

Moto sucks because of their customer service. The phone is disappointing because it didn't survive a 24-inch drop where my previous phone survived dozens and dozens of far more severe drops WITH NO CASE.

I apologize for offending your sensibilities so unbearably that you cannot forgive me for NO LOCAL RETAILER HAS CASES IN STOCK YET and I didn't have one within the first 48 hours of ownership.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
Because there was a prior, identical drop (see my post #23). 2 for 2 bad luck? Or, 2 for 2 this phone is fragile?

I related my experience to share and hear what other experiences exist. Of course, the phone is unreturnable now, so we'll go with a well-protected case and see if the replacement lasts three months. The "unbreakable" Turbo 2 piques my interest, but I really don't want a "Verizon" phone. Hopefully, the "unbreakable" thing gets popular.
[X Style (Pure) General] Oaklands:
I'm sure the 2nd drop caused more damage because the damage from the 1st drop had already cracked it. This only makes sense.

It sounds like you are a bit accident prone. You should make an investment in a case at the same time you order your next phone. I am not being a smart ass just assessing your previous posts. I wouldn't plan on "local stores" carrying accessories for this phone. I've ordered all my accessories from Amazon.

This could happen to any phone depending on how and what it hits.

As far as Moto care goes I don't think Moto did a very good job planning the rollout of this product. It is taking way too long for people to get their phones and apparently this poor planning carries over to their ability to replace phones.
[X Style (Pure) General] Faruko:
So you not only want a great phone with top tier specs for $400 but you also want it to be indestructible ? Wtf ?

I think you are waiting too much, especially when ohones with comparable specs that cost $200 dollars more has the same problem.

It seems to me that you are looking for a phone that so far doesnt exist or you are just too cheap to get a good case or even an indestructible phone (i dont even know of theres one of those)

[X Style (Pure) General] rehpyc:
First, don't expect very limited bezels AND superior protection in the same phone. That should go without saying; this isn't the phone for you. Second, learn to take care of your phones and not blame the design of it for your inability to not drop it. You would probably whine if you were to knock your flat screen TV to the ground and find that its screen cracked from only a 3ft drop.
[X Style (Pure) General] ColeThornton:
To the OP...be prepared for a long haul on the MotoCare front. I cracked my screen nearly a month ago and it took nearly a month to get mine shipped. Problem is they don't have any refurbs (which is a good thing). I had to make 3 phone calls before I got someone who informed of this. They have to send you an "Xcode" which you use to go on and order a new one. Be prepared, you will have to pay the 25 bucks for a custom back if you want one. It will be refunded when you return the old one. Also, once I found out about the xcode, it took another week and a half of daily calls before they actually gave me one.

The cracked screen was totally my fault, I can't blame the phone. Even though my M8 took way more abuse. However....Motocare has been a Nightmare! Very poorly run and no one you talk to seems to have a clue. All are in India and are just following a script when you call. You just have to keep pushing and asking to have it escalated. Good Luck!
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
It does make sense, but in actuality, it was opposite ends of the device. 2nd hit was a bit more concentrated on the corner, I think.

OF COURSE I DO! Doesn't everyone? Or, how about just be reasonably rugged. I don't have time to carry around fine crystal all day.

Absolutely, I'd whine, cry and complain on the Internet. Or, maybe you are exaggerating my OP about 500 percent. My prior MAXX HD had a nearly non-existent bezel, by the way, and didn't destruct upon dropping.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
ColeThornton, thanks for the USEFUL post! I'll start calling tomorrow. Fun!
[X Style (Pure) General] Faruko:
Ok, of course everyone does but you do have to keep your expectations in check, even $600-700 dollar phones are as fragile

Its just how things are today, if it was more "hard" it would be a lot more heavy and thin bezzels would be pretty much impossible

[X Style (Pure) General] Oaklands:

[X Style (Pure) General] PiousInquisitor:
Were you rooted? Did you have ADB debugging enabled? Do you have ADB working on your computer? If so then try this:

adb shell pm clear app.package

replace app.package with whatever the app package name really is. If it is the stock clock app it is probably com.google.android.deskclock. Thus the command would be:

adb shell pm clear com.google.android.deskclock

You can use the same command to clear app data for other apps too.
[X Style (Pure) General] thefallen924:
Tempered glass is actually designed to shatter as to prevent your actual screen from shattering. I dropped...no it was basically accidentally threw my phone from about 3 feet high, on concrete, and the phone still looks as if its fresh out of the box. all it had at the moment was the INCLUDED bumper. since then I haven't dropped it but i still put on a tempered glass screen protector and slim case. Don't state the phone is too fragile when clearly this isn't the case.
[X Style (Pure) General] smokarz:
So, what's the lesson to be learned here from those that happened to read this thread?

Put a god damn case on your phone.
[X Style (Pure) General] Oaklands:
By god
[X Style (Pure) General] jayochs:
but, "waaahhh that takes away from the amazing design! I can't have a case wahhh" because these are the idiots who need to show off the style of their cell phone because they're ridiculously vain and ridiculous. it's a damn cell phone. using it without any case, even a TPU, is absolutely retarded. it's a 400 plus dollar piece of tech that has big potential to be broken daily... yet certain people refuse to use cases. so stupid.

My phone is naked and has been dropped numerous times. All I have are a few scrapes and marks

It's all about it falling at the right angle. You were just unlucky. I have a wood back in case that makes a difference
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
My "unlucky" TWICE in a row from a mere 24-inches height doesn't comport with your "numerous" no damage falls, though it's possible. This phone is definitely more fragile than any device should be that is handled 24/7. But that seems to be the state of the "thin/lightweight is sexy" market at the moment. I hope durable becomes en vogue.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
I couldn't agree more, in spirit, at least. Yet, shouldn't devices be able to withstand minor falls? Modest protection and/or durability should be part of the design, not an add-on. I'm not a fan of style/sexy in phones. I'm a fan of utility and durability.
[X Style (Pure) General] jayochs:
you can buy a car that has great looks, but if you get into an accident, it becomes crumpled up... unless you buy a boat of a 1970s Cadillac made with pure metal throughout. point is, these things are much more fragile now than they were in the past. that's the trade off for this "thin" fascination people have with their phones and no bezels etc.

I wish rugged was a "fascination". I'm looking at an "unbreakable" DRIOD Turbo 2 now (Moto X Force in UK) because I've been out a working modern phone for two months. Back to a branded phone....ugh! Don't know what I can sell a brand new warrantied Pure Edition for.
[X Style (Pure) General] Corduroy-21:
The result of a drop has to do with height, angle, material and design of the phone, speed and the material on which it falls.

A "24 inch drop" is not always the same if it falls on grass or concrete or if it just came out of your pocket or you accidentally pushed it from a table.

I feel for you, but if you drop your phone regularly you should have used a case. For crying out loud, one came with the phone.
[X Style (Pure) General] SLORider:
Corduroy-- While I entirely agree with each of your statements, I don't feel a 24-inch drop should damage any phone more than one in a thousand times. As I posted, my last phone survived dozens and dozens of drops with zero screen damage (and no case). I expected the Pure to be somewhat more fragile just due to the larger screen glass area, but it's too fragile in my view.
[X Style (Pure) General] Master&Slave™:
I know many of you will find this hard to believe but my phone screen cracked in my pocket! My phone is always placed in my left pocket with nothing else in it. I went to dinner with my girlfriend last night and right before we were seated I placed my phone in my pocket. About 25 minutes later, I remove it and it was cracked as if I dropped it on concrete. The rest of the phone is in Mint condition, no dings or Knicks in sight. I was infuriated because I've never had a phone do this to me before. (No there wasn't any previous drops)

I've already been through hell with Motorola customer care with them guaranting Motorola would be at my house on a specific day. I took off work that day (Unpaid Time) and they told me my package was to be delivered the following week!!!! I called three days in a row and I was told by each agent that I would get it on the day I took off work but it never arrived. I was then given a $25 off any item except chromecast promo code with no expiration date. 30 days later I go to use this promotional code and it doesn't work, I was charged the full amount for the item. I call customer care and they told me that that promotional code expired. When I told them there was no expiration in the email and I could send them a screenshot of the email, the rep simply restated that the code expired. I asked to speak with a manager and I was told another story about how they stopped using promotional codes and its out of their hands. Why still have the option to use promotional codes upon checkout when you got rid of promotional code usage? I then asked them if they can credit me the money for the promotional code back into mysccount and they said no; they could only offer me a keychain.

After that experience and my phone mysteriously cracking in my POCKET!!! I'm completely done with Motorola. I was going to get the watch but screw that!

Rant over.
