Haven't been on this forum in years! Just bought the moto x4 Android One phone after my iphone randomly broke. 1) Why is the moto x4 screenshot editor different than the one here? I am updated to android 9 january 2019. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9jg7zmAaIU 2) Will these headphones...

damn usually this forum is more helpful. i just need to know if there is a manual way to turn the phone from a "installer" to a media transfer device from the computer so i can go in and get into my files that are saved on the phone.

But when I connect the device to my computer it always connects as an installer or whatever. I always have to go into settings and connect as a media transfer device for me to be able to search through the phones memory. i cant do that now with the screen locked. what can i do? This phone...

not old at all. i think less than a year

it has never been repaired. i get the same results when i use snapchat. what is involved with replacing the module?

I am not a power user like you guys, just a basic user so no roms or anything is installed other than nova launcher. symptoms: 1)the regular back camera will work fine and take pics normally 2)if i try to switch to the front facing camera i get something like "camera failed" and it will freeze...

my thread has been hijacked. department of homeland security has been notified.

no i havent. details?

what is MJ7?

i do not have unlimited. i have my own plan and its 6 gigs a month i dont know what exactly i will end up using it for. possibilities are endless. today i was waiting for something and i had my laptop and phone and i could have done some work if i was tethered wireless or wired will be...

I don't really want to root or do much technical stuff. But I would like to know the options and the pro's and con's of each. I know there was a tether with out root on app. it worked but not that great.

I havent been to this site in quite a while. I just purchased a galaxy s4 and came from a galaxy s1. I would like to change the notifications when it comes to text messaging, missed call, email, and app notifcations I want text messages to be different from the others Specifically, I would...

what do you mean by that?

-so i still have the samsung fascinate and i use it as my home internet. -i use wireless tether -its very slow and i dont like this -i dont want to pay for home internet as well as phone internet -i know that verizon now has teired data plans whats the story on verizons data plans? how can i...

ya but the instructions dont work. cant get into that gps settings with the dialer function and it sounds like it was written for a different phone. i dont know what ics is

all i have is root and it was the same story before root. i have internet, wifi works, i dont see why that would affect gps though 99% of the time gps cannot locate a signal and when it does it hops around i have always had trouble with gps since i got this pile of junk. in the beginning it...

OUTDATED.............................................................................

did the rooting method in section 6 of this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17222830 did it just so i can use wifi tether. right as i start my phone wifi tether will work but then "su binary is outdated" will appear. If i try to update it it fails many times over...

I dont care about roms or any of that crap. I just want to root so i can get wifi tether. I tried gingerbreak and the stupid program just says "rooting this should take a few minutes" twice i let it sit there for like 30 mins and nothing happened. So i need ghe quickest and easiest root...

i hope so. i dont understand how wireless tethering is faster than usb but okay. also, what about the tiered data plans?? whats the story on them? can i still get a new phone and continue my unlimited if i stay on 3g?

My internet on my phone is much faster than when i tether it to my laptop. I use PDA net. is there a program that works faster? Also, I have been out of the whole phone scene for a while and just wonder what phone should i upgrade to? I see a lot of people debate between the iphone and the...

How can i easily fix the gps on this thing. It will either never find my location and therefore wont navigate, or it is off by a couple of streets rendering it useless. I dont want to do any technical stuff like roms or what not

its been a while since i have been here. i dont even know if i still have root. i know this thing updates itself. and i know the gps still sux big time. anyway, i use to br able to use wireless tether and tether to my laptop. it would work ok. sometimes it would disconnect though. now it...

I'm on rooted ed04. Gps has only worked for like 2 months when I got the phone. Never has worked after. I'm going to really be needing it to work soon. Is there any guaranteed methods of getting this to work like its supposed to?

Just updated to ed04 via ota. Then got root, reinstalled all apps that I backedup with titanium backup. I was getting a bunch of forced closes and found out it was google search(probably because I still have bing and bbloat now) so I got rid of google search. The main reason I wanted to get...

oh boy. I just tried it and this is what i got from odin :

I just want to be on whatever I am supposed to be. as in, what every other customer is on that does not flash or hack there phone. I would like to learn more of this stuff, but right now my life is waaaay too busy so I just need to be stock and up to date according to verizon/samsung and just...

do i still have to deal with a modem or whatever? or can i just odin that file and then continue on? I just want to be 100% stock and up to date

I will just odin DL09 and then OTA to ED04 as described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1053567 that should work right? I would be completely stock and up to date, thats basically all i want right now and i will do the rest. I think i even have DL09 on my computer...

that makes sense. then i will just odin ed01, ota to ed04, then get root. where can i find a safe and easy ed01 file that i can just odin by putting it into download mode, putting the file in PDA, and hitting start? that is all i know how to do.

I go to settings>about phone>check for updates then it says no new software updates available ????????????

yes but i am still on EB01, how do I OTA update to ED04??? then I will root

so what i want to do is OTA update to that, ED04, then just get root. how do i do that?

Just tried to get root and debinged/bloated using this file: http://www.multiupload.com/9JSTWA6Y6L It was screwing everything up. a million force closes browser didnt work market didnt work phone kept restarting and everything was super slow. i dont need any fancy crap here. so I just went...

okay I just did that and and i am getting a million force closes, browser and market dont work and it keeps restarting

Damn now I am wishing I odined the debloated and rooted ed01. Where should I go now to take care of the bloat,bing, get root and all that. And what is deodex?

there is only a file labeled titanium backup with a bunch of stuff inside it. i dont see the actual program cant i just install it from the market? but dont i still need root to run that program

I am now 100% stock(i believe) on EB01. I backed up my apps with titanium backup and want to recover them. I also want to go back to using launcherpro, with root, get rid of bing, and I guess I could just freeze all the extra apps on there that I dont want. what should I do?

okay. everything worked fine and i am on eb01 hoorrayy now how do I get my applications that I backed up with titanium backup, back onto my phone?? along with launcher pro

okay. I am just following what that tutorial says to do. I dont even know what a working recovery is. I never even had a rom on this thing. I have realized I am in way over my head here and have spent too much time dealing with my phone. really all i want is to be up to date, have root...

interesting. in the q/a section there is a sticky on how to go stock. not only does it not tell me how to address voodoo(why i am here) but it tells me to go to DL09 and them OTA to eb01. the method you guys are posting seems much more logical. it sends me strait to froyo and doesnt brick...

what should i do about voodoo though? i am going to do this as two of you have suggested:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124391 but i dunno about voodoo. just ignore it for now? It addresses it in that post but i dont undestand what it is saying

Well I got the drivers installed and i was on to step 5 but heimdall.exe wont open. I think I will just do it this way i guess. this is all because of stupid voodoo

Nnneeeedd heellp nowwww!!!!!!!!!!

okay this tutorial is not working. I went strait to heimdall step two and I get two problems. 1) in step 3 it says "Now drop the usb drop down box and you will find an option for SAMSUNG android composite ADB device, or Samsung composite usb driver..." I dont get that, I get "unknown device"...

will take a look at that in a minute thanx. but what the hell went wrong? was it something to do with voodoo?? none of the steps said to disable it or anything....

Was stuck on dl01 with voodoo, bloatware frozen, rooted, and using launcherpro. I followed the first link in that sticky: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=908451 and now my phone wont boot up. when I turn it on I see the samsung logo and then it goes through this: then it...

Hm. My phone is de-binged right now. i forgot about that. that would also be something that I would like to remove. I am just not seeing all the hype for the roms compared to stock with root. all I care about is that things run smoothly and I control everything. Maybe I missing something though

......bump

I Have a few questions. first off. How do I know if I have voodoo. When I first got the phone and I was installing CWM and freezing bloat and all that, I swear I put voodoo on this. I even heard the robotic lady when I was doing it. Right now I am still stuck on di01 and really want to get...
