Motorola X Users Thread!

How do I know if I'm getting LTE service or just wi-max 4g. Here in Utah we're just starting to see LTE popping up in some areas. Just wondering if my screen will specifically say "LTE" or if it will always say 4g. Any help is appreciated

That device isn't WiMax capable so whenever you see 4G you're connected to LTE

Well looks like your wait is over. I just installed Kitkat on my Moto X

It showed up after a reboot

Seems like you were one of the 1000 customers that got the update first after it started rolling out to all users

What's the word on a good case for this phone?

A coworker lent me her advocacy phone and I would like to get it protected. On top of adding some bulk to the smallish feeling phone.

I've got a Otterbox Defender on my Moto X and it has already saved the handset and screen.  Ended up scraping up the built in screen protector, so I contacted Otterbox and they sent me a new case.  They warranty all their cases, which is nice because they are not cheap.  I like the feel of the case on the phone because I also felt the phone was small in the hand.  The Defender adds some heft, but it still feels good in the hand.  

 

Good luck.

I tried the defender case at my store and I didn't like the corner nubs digging into my hands when I was holding it.

Doesn't really matter much since I switched back to my Nexus. I turned it on and compared screens next to the moto and it doesn't even compare.

Thanks for the input though. Appreciate someone at least answering.

Yes the Nexus is an awesome handset. When my area gets LTE I figure I will try out one of the Spark devices. Seeing as how I still on 3G I figure a single band LTE handset can't hurt.

 

Good luck.

I highly recommend the N5 if you have the moto x. It's the big brother to the moto just without touchless assist.

Also without Active Notifications, trusted bluetooth, Moto Assist, great battery life, and the amazing ergonomics.

All that bring said, I really enjoy my Nexus 5.

Eh. I can live with it. Being rooted running Franco kernel I have gotten 5 hours screen on time on a bigger phone that to me just fits better in my hand. The moto felt like a toy to me.

I honestly don't do the gimmick thing too much. I used OK Google now twice in 3 days. No joke.

So to me having all the extra features really doesn't mean anything.

Any Moto X users waiting for Lollipop update ?

 

I wonder if Sprint will bake the Sprint Zone app in the update, now that Google includes VPL (Virtual Preload) to download pre set apps fromt he carrier when carrier  SIM is recognized on the phone.

 

Hope the Sprint App becomes optional due to the changes in Lollipop

 I received the Moto Update service last week, but I believe the Soak Test is for the GSM version, not the carrier version.

    • I posted this in the Nebraska Premier thread last week, but just wanted to share in this thread the progress that T-Mobile has made in filling in the great coverage gap known as Nebraska. Between late last year and this year, they have added 28 new expansion sites filling in the coverage hole, plus 11 Sprint site conversions in eastern Nebraska and far western Iowa. Notably, in the last month n41 coverage was added on over a dozen expansion sites in western Nebraska that were added to the network last year. For comparison, here is the very first map that I created in October of 2022 after we noted expansion sites outside of Sprint conversion in Lincoln and Omaha. It doesn't show any western parts of the state, but just know there was nothing besides roaming coverage and a little B12 coverage leaking down from South Dakota to the west of Valentine, NE.
    • Sent a copy of my DB in an e-mail just now.  Couldn't leave the house today but can hopefully get a screenshot when I'm out on another cell site tomorrow.
    • 76MB Google Play System update after that, bringing the date up to 3/1 from prior 2/1 date. 
    • April security patch is already out - 738.30 MB download. 
    • What do you see with the latest alpha/ beta version?
