    Post Can't Update System Software

    Thanks so much for the reply...I discovered the version of Android installed on my phone is a version meant for Journalists/Reviewers/Commercial use, and can not be updated. I just got a refund for the 3-year warranty portion of my purchase after pointing this out to them. So after the 90 day...

    Post Can't Update System Software

    Thanks for the reply. Here's a screenshot of Xperiafirm. https://ibb.co/dUCN3T I'm in Canada, though I'm on Freedom Mobile, not Rogers or Bell. I don't think my carrier ever sold this phone, and I'm not sure what would happen if I flashed 8.0 made for Bell or Rogers phones. Ideally I'd like...

    Thread Can't Update System Software

    I just got brand new Xperia X Performance that came with 6.0.1, and I'm trying to figure out why I can update it. It's unlocked but not rooted, basically right from the factory as far as I know. When I go into Software Update in the phone's settings, it says "Your device already has the latest...

    Post Android Marshmallows 6.0 update for Xperia M4 Aqua

    Does anybody know how to disable this from happening every time someone sends me a message? It happens in Hangouts and text messages. I've turned off "Allow Peeking" for these apps. As you can see, the popups still happen, they just don't have text now. Very strange. Thanks! Embedding images...

    Post Android Marshmallows 6.0 update for Xperia M4 Aqua

    Does anyone know how to have the current selected network displayed in the status bar? I can pull down the menu twice and see it there, but not when I press the home button. (Updated to Marshmallow 6.0.1, NOT rooted) I'm also not sure what the little white circle with the horizontal line through...

    Post Notification light question

    I actually returned the Moto X Play because the LED notification light didn't work at all even though it's present on the phone. Motorola are a bunch of greedy assholes who want you to buy their "smart watch" just to get notifications now apparently, but that's a whole other topic. During my...

    Post [APP] NoLED v6.0.19 - Use the AMOLED screen for incoming notifications

    I couldn't get any of the apps to work properly despite great effort of a couple people. I returned Moto X Play and got a Huawei Ascend G7 and it's perfect. The notification LED works properly. It is a little slower I guess (but honestly the Huawei G7 isn't even choppy on this site like the Moto...

    Post [APP] NoLED v6.0.19 - Use the AMOLED screen for incoming notifications

    Using A Different App I never heard back from the developer or from anybody here unfortunately. However I did find Light Flow, which I don't really like as much as NoLED, but it works perfectly.

    Post [APP] NoLED v6.0.19 - Use the AMOLED screen for incoming notifications

    Moto X Play/Blink and Hangouts notifications not working I just bought a Moto X Play and learned that even though it has an LED, we can't use it for some reason. So I installed NoLED this morning and it worked perfectly except for one thing... the Blink feature isn't working, the screen stays...

    Thread Constant Notifications

    Hey guys, hopefully this is an easy one for you: I have a first generation Moto-G (NOT rooted). Ever since Lollipop was released I've been getting the notifications to upgrade. I don't want to upgrade, so I tap "No Thanks". No big deal to do that a dozen times a day I guess. Here's the real...

    Post [Q] Connect to PC for Data Recovery

    I still don't have any idea what's going on here. I went into the recovery mode but I didn't see the option to "mount your /sdcard virtual partition from recovery" I'm afraid my photos and videos are long gone now, but maybe an answer will help the next person.

    Post [Q] Connect to PC for Data Recovery

    My phone is not rooted. Am I still able to do this? (If I can, can you link me to a thread dealing with how to do this?) Thanks so much.

    Thread [Q] Connect to PC for Data Recovery

    I am trying to recover deleted photos and videos on my Moto G. I have enabled USB Debugging, and have connected as "a media device" When I plug it in (Windows 7) Autoplay pops up with the options: -Sync Digital Media Files To This Device -Open Device To View Files -Import Pictures and Videos I...
