    S7 SD Card - EVO or EVO+ ?

    Makes sense. I'm going to order the EVO+. When going to the Samsung website, they actually show a picture of the EVO+ where they are touting the removable SD card feature of the S7. So I figure that should be the one to go with. Of course you choosing to go with an even better card can never...

    Can the S7 take advantage of the transfer speed difference 48mb/s vs 80mb/s?

    Moto X: Motorola Connect not working

    Same here. Works for a few minutes. Only way I got to make it work permanently is: 1. Avast Main Window 2. Settings 3. Active Protection 4. Web Shield 5. Customize - Uncheck "Scan traffic from well-known browser processes only" and Uncheck "Enable HTTPS Scanning" That works permanently

    My 2 1/2 week long Moto X replacement story

    My experience was quite different. I went through their online process and they also put me in their advanced exchange program (32g Dev Edition, GSM). It notified me that it would ship within 4-5 days. It shipped out next day and I got the phone within 2 business days thereafter. I got the...

    Moto X: Camera Improvement Options

    Re: Camera Improvement Options I actually didn't try Cam Awesome. I tried the Trial Version of FV-5 (Cam Awesome did not have a trial I could find) then purchased it for the $3.95. I am not a camera person, so I just tinkered with some settings. The lower the ISO, the less grainy the...

    Moto X: Camera Improvement Options

    Re: Camera Improvement Options Very low indoor light at late afternoon/almost dusk. I'd say it was $3.95 well spent for low light and night photos. I would use stock camera app for daytime photos. FV-5 for night Moto X stock camera App: FV-5 at ISO 400, AWB

    Best Moto X Cases

    I like the Bear Motion-type case as well. However, I hate the branding. They are all the same (Bear, Anker, etc). I got the same case and cheaper with no branding in diff colors: Slim Quicksand Matte Frosted Bumper Case Cover for Motorola Moto x Phone XT1055 | eBay

    Moto X - Drive mode should turn on Bluetooth

    What they should really do is to Auto Turn On GPS when connected to certain Bluetooth Devices, such as my car's BT. Before KitKat, I was able to use Tasker to do this and I was able to get into Assist Driving Mode. Since KitKat, you cannot automate the ON / OFF of GPS and I refuse to leave GPS...

    Camera Changing To Red

    Happens to mine as well. Not only brown floors. Anything with a brown hue in low lighting turns the entire screen to red. Very annoying and they stopped updating the camera in the Play Store for a while now.

    Moto X KitKat differences & issues

    It's a KitKat thing. No app can toggle GPS anymore unless you are rooted.

    Moto X KitKat differences & issues

    Yes on both points. The advantage of GPS ON all the time is that you can locate your phone via Cerberus or Android Device Mgr if lost or whatever. On MotoX JB, I can send a text to myself with a certain trigger phrase that can toggle GPS ON, Lock Screen, Alarm, Msg for who found phone, etc...

    Moto X KitKat differences & issues

    For those using Tasker, the ability to toggle GPS ON and OFF is taken away with KitKat. Which kinda sucks b/c I was using Tasker to turn GPS ON when connected to the car's Bluetooth so that Motorola Assist Driving mode will kick in and read text messages. Now, it won't turn on GPS, so the...
