    Some Apps Crashing On Loading

    Some folks on the M8 forum have found that uninstalling updates to Android System WebView seems to help... For me, it fixed some apps (MLB At Bat) but not others (Traffic Racer). Posted via the Android Central App

    apps randomly shut down while I am using them

    Is there a channel to actually report this to Google? The "send email" link on the Play Store for WebView apparently goes to a "no reply address" according to the auto reply I immediately received, and I can't find a Google Product Forum for this component. I am very hesitant to uninstall...

    Lollipop Recent Apps Lag?

    Yep, I've had this problem as well on my Verizon M8. It seems to last about 18 hours or so before starting to get laggy, and it only gets worse from there, even if I swipe away all apps, leave the phone to cool for a while, etc. Since we got 5.0.1, I'm assuming this is due to the memory leak...

    Play Store won't update since factory reset?

    I performed a factory reset yesterday (I am on 4.4.4, Verizon M8, never rooted or modded), and my Play Store hasn't updated from version 4.9.13. I've tapped the version number in the Settings screen and it continues to say that it is up to date, but the 5.0.x versions have been out for over a...

    Play Store 4.8 Update?

    Anyone else still waiting for the 4.8.x Play Store update (with PayPal support) to be available? It's been over two weeks since the initial announcement and when I tap the build number on line, it still says "up to date". I'd prefer to not sideload a downloaded version, but don't know what...

    Using the Moto X without a case

    I've never had a case on mine, and love the feel of it (fits perfectly in my hand). My wife didn't have one for the first two weeks, then dropped it on an asphalt parking lot and chipped / dented in a corner of the glass. She's had a case since then that's part transparent and part...

    Moto X: Assist Sleeping

    Re: Assist Sleeping Odd... I never had that while I used Assist for sleep settings (until about a month ago), although I now use Llama for those things anyway as it also handles vibrate at work and media volume changes for car vs. headphones. Posted via Android Central App

    Google Search - how to?

    Re: Where to find - how to? On your questions 1 and 2 - while entering into either the Google Search Bar or the omnibox in Chrome, when autocomplete options appear you should see an up-left arrow on the far right end of the autocomplete line. Tap that arrow, and the suggestion should move up...

    Upgrading to Moto X from S3 - will I lose Unlimited Data on Verizon?

    No worries - even if you select Verizon and "no contract" on Motomaker, it ships with a SIM card already installed. To activate it you just call (from a different phone) a Verizon number that's on a read me first sheet in the box, give them the ESN and you're good to go, still with your same...

    Battery seems better

    What are your sync and location settings? I'm coming from a Droid RAZR MAXX HD, so I'm probably overreacting, but I have all sync and location things enabled with Touchdown for Exchange also pushing, and I'm at 64% after 4.5 hours total, 1 hr screen time, on 4G / no Wi-Fi for most... seems low...

    Gmail syncing issues?

    Yep, I've tried doing that both from within the Gmail settings and from the Accounts section of the general settings app... Can't figure it out Posted via Android Central App

    Gmail syncing issues?

    Anyone else having issues getting Gmail to sync automatically? I'm on the second round of trying to figure this out (fixed it last time, but can't figure it out this time). I've tried clearing the system cache, uninstalling the Gmail app updates and reinstalling, clearing app data, deleting the...

    Ordered early on Monday. Still not shipped

    Definitely call Motorola - I ordered my Verizon 32GB Moto X Monday evening and it arrived at my home this afternoon. Posted via Android Central App

    Moto X Discontinued

    This... I've noticed a huge increase in TV ads specifically over the past week or so, which I assume is tied to the expansion of Motomaker - neither of which seem like things that would be done for a phone being discontinued. Posted via Android Central App

    Disappointing Exchange/ActiveSync, Any Help?

    I use Touchdown on my DROID RAZR MAXX HD, though not out of a lack of functionality in the stock client, just out of wanting to separate work and personal stuff. The Motorola stock clients on my phone were generally capable of doing most of the things you mentioned, so I'd be surprised if they...
