I reboot mine every night. Is that bad for the phone?

Absolutely not. It never hurts to reboot. It's just not as necessary as it once was but tend to reboot most nights as well. I think it's a habit more than anything. Certainly not out of necessity.

I reboot every few nights to clear up everything and start fresh. I feel it helps the phone run as good as possible

I generally reboot after installing apps or updates. Probably not necessary, but I have on occasion ran across an app that needed a reboot to run properly.

I reboot every few days. I agree that it is no longer as necessary as it once was, but it does help some programs/apps to have an occasional reboot.

Then, of course, there is the need to see the new reboot animation....

I really don't understand people's reluctance to update. You're missing out on awesome stuff like touchless control updates and immersive mode.

I'm also missing out on all white icons. I rather like the blue. And I like being able to see at a glance what is connected and what is not. I also have heard a few horror stories from people that updated. Also, I like to get a feel for a phone...how long the battery last, what works and what is buggy, how smooth everything is, etc. If I updated right away I would have no basis to compare to. It would be different if I got the phone in Sept. but I didn't. Still need more time with it as is before updating. And finally, since I have only had the phone since Christmas, I wanted to make sure all my apps have no compatibility issues first. So for all of those reasons, I have held off....for now. But just for now. I'll update at some point no doubt.

I miss the reboot command on my Note 3. I don't see restart/reboot as an option on the Moto X, am I missing it?

I don't think it exists. I also like that feature. My wife's LG G2 has it.

If you hold the power button until it turns off it restarts on it's own. I know it's not the same thing but it works.

After having kitkat on my phone and tablet for a few months, I hadn't realized how used to the white I had gotten. It looks so clean and nice, now when I see screenshots of jb, it looks so jarring

Thanks! It's an option at least!

My Moto X still has the winter/holiday boot animation. Rebooted 3 times last night, doesn't seem to go away.

that's kinda weird.

 

[sting7k]

Any thoughts on why? Rebooted again just now to see, still all wintery.

 

[Roger Gibbens]

Mine has a new "world" theme animation when I boot up. It's kinda neat.

did you update this boot service?? https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...etails?id=com.motorola.moodles&token=209fgW5t

B'leeve that's s'posed to only be for the Moto G...think the boot animation for the X is tucked into some other "Moto Service" and the Holiday version was like an Easter Egg from Moto!

That's the original boot animation that the X shipped with.

I have vision problems. So for me it's helpful. All white will be problematic for me.

Ah. I purchased my Moto at Christmas (well, just before) and had only seen the Christmas animation until this week.
