    Is it still worth it?

    Perhaps you should check the complaints section on the Motorola site. You'll likely get your answer. I, for one, will not go back to Motorola products. I had Moto phones before and currently an owner of the Pure Ed. and more than likely will not come back to it. Customer Service sucks and that's...

    Having some issues with the stock camera app

    Hello folks, So after having owned the phone for a couple months now, I find my phone camera app to be quite useless. Perhaps I don't have the best settings for it yet, but twice I have lost pictures taken with my 3yo toddler when he started doing something. After taking the photos, I went back...

    Does the stock PE have any .pdf reader?

    Thank you. I checked out Foxit MobilePDF on Play Store and it shows 18M file size, and I went to Apps and checked out my Adobe Acrobat Reader, it shows 17.60 MB filesize. Essentially the same.

    Softer alert sounds under Marshmallow?

    I followed your steps about rebooting into safe mode and back to normal mode, my notification sounds are pretty loud now. Not obnoxiously loud or anything but reasonable that I'm not complaining about it. And I don't have the sleep mode enabled.

    MOTO X PURE & NOVA and other newbie questions

    The phone is not necessarily slow in terms of opening/closing apps, and responsive. But I think I might have the same issue as the poster that is it seems like the phone takes exceptionally longer to turn off (right after you press Power Off). And this phone claims to have no bloatware. Turning...

    Does the stock PE have any .pdf reader?

    Doesn't seem like Drive PDF Viewer works for me. I think maybe I don't have Google Drive enabled. However, I use Adobe Acrobat Reader and it's working for me so far. On a somewhat different note, as I know you're the expert here. Do you know how to clear the contents in the Downloads icon? I...

    Does the stock PE have any .pdf reader?

    Thanks. This Viewer was not pre-installed. I don't think any pdf viewer is pre-installed on the PE. I think I will use this 3rd party app for viewing the pdf files.

    Does the stock PE have any .pdf reader?

    So I downloaded a .pdf file, but when I click on it in the Download folder, I got an error msg that says "Can't open file" Do I need a 3rd party app to read .pdf files, ie Adobe Reader? Thanks.

    Softer alert sounds under Marshmallow?

    Hi can you explain a little further? So you booted into safe mode and then pressed the volume up key all the way to the max and then rebooted the phone in "normal" mode? And how do you know if that was the max volume? Did the phone beep when you pressing the volume up key? Thanks.

    Can I disable Moto Active Display and still wake the phone by waving my hand on Moto X Pure Edition?

    Nice find! Keep us posted if you found new cool options/features as I'm also exploring my new toy. :)

    Audio effects gone?

    Haha..OK. Well, this is the player that i use (i removed the stock Google Play Music app), and it does give me an equalizer that i can change the settings a bit (low to hi frequencies, and some other basic stuff). But I also used this app on different phones before and it also gave me options to...

    Audio effects gone?

    Which media player are you referring to? I had this same question too, wondering how to change the audio effects but there's no option to do so.
