[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] number32:
Hi guys,

Yesterday I nave broken the screen of my moto x 2014. Fortunately, only the glass is broken and the LCD and touchscreen are all OK, without any problem. I was thinking about make someone repair it, but I saw that the price is high, about 100€ here in Italy. What do you advice to do? Could I find more competitive price? And is it possibile that I can find a shop where they could replace only the glass? If I send it to Motorola, which price will they do?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kabal LV:
I would get a new phone. Even tho i love this phone, but i think it would be more profitable than paying extra 100Eur for 3y old phone.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flipz77:
You have to take into account that it's very hard to replace a phone like this one. There are no real successors and nexus is dead. (And no, our phone is not "three years old", it's not even two and a half. This distorted consumerist perception of time is one of the reasons why we haven't seen updates beyond ONE bloody year)

I've never seen someone service a screen (from any brand) for less than 100 euros, unfortunately. Can't you just phone an official Motorola service centre and ask them for an estimate?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] number32:
Yes, next week I'll try in a Motorola service centre but, considering what I read in other forums, I don't think that they will make me a better price.

From what I understood, the problem is that the spare part is quite expensive, also if you buy it from eBay. The only way to save some money is to change only the glass but the process is difficult and you should spend other money on the specific tools anyway. Now I'm looking for someone that can do it, although the largest part of shops prefers to replace all the piece and not only the glass.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kabal LV:
Well in terms of performance, screen, software and features, this phone doesnt feel 3y old but why is it hard to replace phone like this ? OnePlus 3T, Pixel, S7(or upcoming S8), are all great options. Better cameras, screens, batteries and performance. Im just being objective. And i will still have my moto for year or two.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flipz77:
Pixels and Galaxies are way too pricey, yes, they're bleeeeding edge, and so is the 1+3T, but I was considering a successor, not just a newer, "better" phone.

Google assistant (assuming you can get it to work from screen off when you're not plugged in) is not better than Moto voice just because it's newer.

Bottom speakers are not better just because Google is monkeying iphones.

Samsung firmwares are not better.

Ambient display is not better than Moto display.

That's why you can always buy a newer, more powerful phone assuming you have the money, but you aren't going to find everything you left in the "old tech" drawer.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Italico:
Dropped mine a month ago - broken glass, frame untouched, perfectly functional touchscreen.

Thought it was 'wrong' to spend money to repair, bought a refurbished Nexus 5.

Well, damn, Moto X 2014 was better in almost every way except camera - by a lot.

BTW: the Nexus 5 is ready to get shipped, with tempered glass and a new battery alredy installed...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TodNex:
Hi,

after using the CM13 for awhile, I need to find working replacement.

Honestly CM13 was slower and less responsive compared to CM12 on the Maguro.

However I need working and up to date ROM to install Android Auto, working GPS, ability to use Play Store.

I'm not keen to use latest the greatest as I have also Nexus 6, where I run 7.1.1

Maguro is mainly used for car navigation, I need at least Android 5 based one.

Thanks all!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
Decisions, Decisions...

I have a pair of recommendations for you and your maguro GNex; both are N-based, at that.

There is Unlegacy 7.1 (AOSP-based 7.1), which is - for now - the ONLY 7.1 or later-based ROM that can be reliably installed clean. The usual prerequisites apply (root and third-party recovery - I've used TWRP extensively with this ROM, and all versions from 2.7.1.0 to 3.0.2.0 will work with it). My other recommendation is PureNexus 7.1.1; contrary to Unlegacy, it should be installed as an upgrade - in other words, do NOT wipe before installing. You can install the newer GApps along with the ROM the same way, or let the update process handle GApp upgrading - both methods, in fact, work.

Which you should choose may well depend on whether or not you want either GoogleAssistant and/or Pixel Launcher. Pixel Launcher is, in fact, included with PureNexus 7.1.1 - as is Google Assistant; Google Assistant is addable to Unlegacy 7.1; however, I could not get Pixel Launcher to install on it. Pixel Launcher WILL work with Google Assistant - PureNexus is plenty of hard data on that front. What I like about PureNexus is that it has a lot of customization designed-in - including options that no other firmware offers; it reminds me a lot of Object Desktop for Windows, to be honest.

Both Unlegacy and PureNexus are unified; they will install the same way on any version of tuna-based hardware - maguro, toro, and toroplus (GSM, CDMA, and W-CDMA/Sprint, respectively) You would no more lose features by not running on toro hardware than I do by not running on maguro hardware..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ahkah:
I could not find that for maguro. Are you sure?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TodNex:
Thank you!

will give them a try
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
The original developer has maguro; however, it was developed as neutral; there are (literally) no maguro-isms in the code (I myself have toro hardware, and the phone in question is ex-VZW and is on the VZW-powered half of Tracfone's network).

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ahkah:

But there is no website or discussion thread regarding PureNexus for "Tuna", is it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rahimali:
I think not.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ____Mdd:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ahkah:
Thanks! On the other hand: One could try to use Google Translate for translations from Japanese to English. This might be better than nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TodNex:
That's a damn fast ROM! Really enjoyed it.

Big thanks to the devs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bamtan2:
The same main developers created CM 12, CM 13, and Unlegacy 7.1, so those are what I would suggest! Not many choices! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TodNex:
So far Unlegacy 7.1 is far better handling than CM13. I'm impressed :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
How's mobile network stuff working for you? I've got a toro on Page Plus (which is now also using 'the VZW-powered half of Tracfone's network'). I had been trying to get mobile data working on unlegacy-7.1, but I gave up a while ago. My daily driver had been cm13, but when Page Plus changed their APNs to tracfone, it broke mobile data and it took me better than a week to figure out what was going on. I got sick of it and switched to unlegacy-4.4 (which is a great ROM, by the way).

tl;dr: Do mobile data and mms work for you on a toro on tracfone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
I am not a fan of mobile data (as I don't get that much of it) - in fact, I prefer wi-fi (not mobile data) as I am almost ALWAYS near either a hotspot or a router; for that reason, I can't really reply to that question. I've never had issues with either SMS or MMS on Unlegacy or PureNexus for Tuna (which I installed as an upgrade from Unlegacy). Are you, in fact, aware that MMS and SMS CAN be used over wi-fi (yes; Google Hangouts supports the feature)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
Sure, I can send MMS from hangouts over WiFi, but when people send group messages / MMS to my mobile phone number? Only way to receive them is over mobile data. Unless I'm missing something, and there's a way to receive MMS's to your phone number over WiFi with Page Plus? But even if I could, I don't have access to WiFi at my day job.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
Ouch

If you are in a situation where you can only be called (job-wise), usually, calling you would ALSO be a bad move - basically, if you can only be reached via mobile (voice or data), unless it's work-related, doing so would ALSO be of the bad - correct? It's also why if someone wants to MMS/SMS me, via my e-mail address (which is the default) is preferable to using my phone number - also, there are people that actually find easier to MMS/SMS me that I would rather NOT have call me. (It's an old habit from using older MMS/SMS clients - such as Yahoo Messenger - I only give out my phone number to those I am willing to actually talk to on a phone. In other words, instead of phone-number-based MMS/SMS, use your GMail-based address instead - which will help keep your mobile-data bill down. There SHOULD be a setting - either in Messaging or Hangouts - as to which to use by default. (Such a setting is NOT in Messenger.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
Of course you are right, and the phone gets ignored while I'm at work unless it's something urgent. But I'm not about to change my cell number to an 'unlisted number' that only a select few people know, and force all my friends and acquaintances to use another service to contact me. And people WILL send MMS's, usually apple users who cannot grasp why I wouldn't be able to get their 'group messages'. "You didn't get the message? Why not? You should just get an iphone!" Makes me sick.

But saying "you can mostly replace MMS with another service that uses WiFi" is different than saying "You can send and receive MMS over WiFi". And last I checked, neither mobile data nor MMS works on unlegacy-7.1 on toro.

So for now, I've replaced cm13 with unlegacy-4.4 and everything is working great. Once the SELinux stuff is straightened out with unlegacy-7.1 I will probably revisit that and see if I can get everything working.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
That is why I asked what APP are you using for MMS. If you are using a phone-specific MMS app, it won't work over wi-fi (Messaging is such an example). Hangouts, however, does work over wi-fi (I have Hangouts on my tablet because it WORKS on it; Messaging does not). For messaging (and especially because I have both an Android tablet AND an Android phone - and I've had the tablet the longest) I tend to go with tablet-capable messaging apps - not ones that only work with phones. (Phone-specific apps in general are, in fact, my biggest gripe with Android as a platform.) MMS and SMS are not platform-specific in and of themselves - individual apps, however, can be. (Messaging is phone-specific; however, Hangouts isn't. That is, in fact, why I recommend Hangouts as a Messaging replacement - it's not limited to phones.) Messenger isn't limited to phones, either (not Facebook Messenger, but Google Messenger). This is, unfortunately why both app choice AND platform choice can matter. Therefore I can recommend either Hangouts or Google Messenger (for two reasons - neither is limited to phones OR to mobile data). So don't change your firmware; that's not the problem. - just use a different MMS and/or SMS app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] musical_chairs:
Actually, I use Signal as my messaging app. It uses WiFi if the messages are between Signal users. But no matter what app I use, if somebody sends an MMS to my mobile number, there's no way to get it other than to actually have mobile data and MMS working. No app that I've ever heard of can access Verizon's MMS servers and retrieve messages from there over WiFi. Except Verizon Messenger, But that's only available to on-contract customers, not prepaid MVNO users like me. When Hangouts sends messages to non-hangouts users, they are sent using a completely different phone number, and I don't want that either.

Anyway, this discussion started as a simple question of "Does MMS work for you?" which you've answered, "No." We obviously have different communications needs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] yossSP:
As said before, in my opinion, best ROMs for Maguro are Unlegacy-Android (MM or Nougat):

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/development/rom-omap4-aosp-project-t3334574

The extra 300 Mbytes of RAM reclaimed, make a difference.

In my case, in Unlegacy 7.1 , GPS doesn't works, so I use now MM version, wich is fast and reliable, everything works as it should and with a smoothness not expected :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Cintra2:
Thanks for the above information. I decided to try the PureNexus ROM and everything went very well, just had to install a December version of SuperSU and I used Pico Gapps from a couple of days ago..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
I want MMS and SMS without the mobile data requirement because I don't always have my phone available (I've had my tablet longer than I've had my phone). Because I'm an MVNO user, I don't have as much mobile data available - which is another vote against mobile-data-specific apps. Signal only supports wi-fi between users of Signal (proprietary) - not good. Messenger and Hangouts support MMS and SMS over wi-fi as long as the other end does. And how the heck did you wind up with different phone numbers? Do you also have multiple e-mail addresses that you use for SMS/MMS? I only have the one e-mail address that I use for SMS/MMS, and it IS linked to my phone number; therefore, I don't have that problem. Now if you have multiple DEVICES (along with multiple phone numbers/multiple e-mail addresses) then you need to keep them separated - which is a FAR different kettle of fish. (My mom, for example, has both a phone AND a phablet with LTE data, and different addresses/contacts for each - she can't have unified SMS/MMS for that reason, as much as she would like to. Phone and tablet is possible; tablet and phablet is possible; however phone and phablet is not. The reason why it isn't is simple enough; mobile data is identical to phone data, and uses the same metrics as said data; it's also why phablets can support phone calls (but tablets cannot). Her phone and tablet can use the same apps; however, her phablet has a different "phone number" (though it is not used to make calls - that number is ONLY used for mobile data). So the real issue is "do you also have a phablet".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xendrix:
For Some Reason the Unlegacy Rom Sits on "Android is starting...." and ive tried looking at the forum setting gapps permissions etc doesnt work, would i have to dirty flash or clean installation was fine?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
For Unlegacy, clean was fine - the issues I had were with DU for Tuna or PureNexus (I could not flash either of THOSE clean). However, nano GApps is too large; you should use pico GApps or Banks Dynamic.. Further, my current setup is PureNexus 7.1.1 over Unlegacy 7.1/pico GApps (also 7.1)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xendrix:
ahh sweet thanks cause when i tried clesn flashing it look so weird xd but ill backup and try it now! and report thanks for the reply!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
FOLLOWUP: PN for Tuna 7.1.1 can now be installed clean!

Since then a new version of PureNexus (7.1.1) has been built - I tag-teamed it with the latest Dynamic GApps (7.1.1); this time, I re-tried a clean install (since I was also using different GApps). The clean install was a success (with no borks)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xendrix:
ohhhh thats awesome! is that latest version the one linked from before? or has it not been posted?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PGHammer:
New build of PureNexus for Tuna (UNOFFICIAL)

Posted elsewhere (same maintainer), and less than a week old - when I installed it, it was perhaps all of two days old. The build itself is dated the 22nd, with the GApps dated four days earlier.. (This post is dated the 26trh - do the calendar math.)

my kaiser threw a fit on the bus today, it detcted a 3g network which i tried to connect to but failed. then when i went to open opera mini it tried to install it even though it was there already and complained there was not enough space when there was loads. i ended up having to totally reinstall jbed to get it working again and ever since the power management has been whacko - in the past i could connect to an internet radio station and supend the devie with the audio still being output - this is no longer the case! now when i press the power button, all audio is killed (from core player) unless i have the htc audio manager playing something - if htc audio manager is paused or not running, core player flatly refuses to output audio if the device is suspended!? what the hell has gone wrong here and how do i get my original functionality back!?

what was also weird is that i had to software reset when i was on the bus to get my gprs conn back - when my kaiser had rebooted i was presented witha strange white blank window instead of my home screen plugins - a total of 3 soft resets were needed to get my home screen back!
