Constantly flashing active notification. - Moto X Q&A

I was wondering if the active notifications are constantly supposed to be lighting the screen up. Every time I look at my phone it seems to be lighting up only the clock even without any notifications pending. Is this normal?

Yes it's able to know when you are pulling your phone out your pocket so it flashes a quick look
@ your clock for your convenience,

This happens even when the phone is completely still on the table though.

Yes, active notifications are supposed to have a "breathing-like" quality. Every few seconds or so if and when the phone is not face down and/or in your pocket, it will gently pulse the time and any notifications you may or may not have. I think you can turn it off, but I don't remember. Can't wait to get my hands on it next week

Yup, this is exactly how active notifications work. They're only lighting up certain panels on the display. Also, you can put a timer on it so it doesn't turn on at certain times.

Thanks for the responses. It's really irritating when driving simply because my suspension is hard, and every bump makes the phone think I moved the phone to look at it.

Basically works the same way a flashing LED light would work on the Nexus 4 or any other phone. It might be annoying, but it's meant to grab your attention and be just as annoying as an LED light except it is more informative since it tells you what the most recent notification is. If I'm trying to focus on something, I just put my phone face down and it will mute the notifications until you turn it over again.

The driving feature on the assistant should stop that.

Hopefully. But just flashing the clock over and over doesn't seem informative. Either way the driving feature doesn't have many features. Maybe it's something that isn't specifically mentioned. Regardless, thanks for the answers.

If you have more than one notification, swipe away the top one. The rest teleport to the top with no animation. That alone has me back on 4.1.2

not sure if its related but ever since i updated all my contact photos in the text message app that were linked to my friends facebook pics are all now blank and i cant get them to come back and stay, i went into the facebook app and "sync with existing contacts" and i went into settings and synced facebook contacts in there also
I don't know ifthis is a bug, but what ifs the purpose of the day dream setting. My phone didn't fully charge last night, probably because the screen kept coming on. Other than that I don't really notice anything that is greatly different. I am however hoping that the no SIM card issues are fixed.

There are no bugs. And not sure what the Hell this guy keeps saying about notifications teleporting to the top without animation??

If you're in the Twitter beta, you can't get Twitter to show up in blinkfeed. Best way around it is uninstall all the updates, link your account in blinkfeed and then update to the beta again.

I asked in another thread, but it might get more answers here. On 4.3, I've had the stock music app reset the volume to all the way down/off twice. I'm using google Play music to see if I can get the same issue on that as well. I'm curious as to if anyone else has seen this particular issue.

That's not the ROM problem. That is your phone/sim issue. I believe most people have resolved it by taking out the sim, cleaning it, blowing out the contacts, and re-seating.
The firmware seems to cause a swap for those who did and did not have the purple camera issue. I didn't before, have it now. Boss had it before, doesn't now.

The option to toggle whether open wifi connections are available is not working it is permanently turned on even after factory reset. Also roaming guards cannot be toggled off and alot of apps force close after closing them but that one could be they are not updated for 4.3 yet.

Issues with the XDA app

This morning, my XDA app is acting crazy. When I click on a post, it gives me the options for the post before it, so if I click on my own post to edit it, it gives me the options for the post before mine. Is this happening to anyone else?

Not having that issue. But responding to xda notifications causes the app to FC. Root de la Vega rooted my N3 if that makes any difference. Try re-installing the app.

I've noticed that every time something goes wrong the first suggestion is to try something else instead of solving the actual problem. With my video stuttering issues someone suggested to stream videos at 480p instead of 720 or 1080. Yea that's why I got a 700 dollar phone for so I can stream at quality that's been around since 1997.
Back on topic, I've noticed that if you click next to the name of the op of the post you want to quote or reply to it picks the correct one as opposed to the one above it. Still, it's an issue that needs to be resolved.
I'm not bragging, just informing. I am not having any selection problem with this app. I have tried using the spen and my finger, touching anywhere in a post. I even tried along the border between posts and it selected the correct post every time.
I'm sorry you guys are havjng this irritating problem. Does it happen anywhere else? N1 had a screen sensitivity problem with spen that required an outside app to recalibrate the screentouch.

Temp fix: if you tap on the post itself will select the post above making difficult to quote the last post. Now, look at the post and you'll see on the left the user name and on the right the time the post was posted. If you tap on the time will select it right and not the one above it
Edit: just like Techweed said, sorry didn't read your post, I did this couple days ago already.

Me too. Either of you guys rooted? I used the initial method, using MI1... I don't remember it happening before. I'm downloading MI9 now to see if it was fixed.
Also, how is your GPS navigation? Mine's just awful. Jumping around all over the place. There's a couple of threads for that already, and I don't want to hijack the thead. Just wondering if the two could be related?

Ok. MI9 fixed my GPS issues. Night and day. Google navigation was almost unusable. Always jumping to different streets, slow refresh rate, etc. My compass performance is also MUCH better. But still has a few issues. I'm using the smart compass app from the store. Upon reboot, it typically measures magnetic field strength at ~230uT (red text). At this point the reading is just garbage. Jumps all over the place. After a few minutes/seconds (might just be motion recalibrating compass), the reading jumps back down to ~40 uT (green text). At this point, it's actually usable, although sometimes off by as much as 20-30 degrees.
You guys using s view covers?

I thought it was just mine. Compass/accelerometer is a bit jumpy too. I notice it most in Sky Map+.
I had same issue naked with field compass pro but I read on another thread that it was specifically cause of s view cover.

Kept telling me to recalibrate but it would not calibrate no matter how many figure 8s I made. Lol
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium HD app
The Compass issues have nothing to do with S-Cover. I had them, too, when I first bought the phone. There were reports of this problem with the S4, too, IIRC. You have to calibrate your sensors using a program like GPS Status. It's a sightly more involved process than just doing the figure 8 thing -- but not much.
I'll give it a try now.

Just switched to beast mode a couple days ago..and now I'm rooted and strapping. The question is, Can I restore all my apps with Tibu after I flash a rom? I ask because of the whole new room slot deal. O and is there a volume skip track option yet..like via a module? Thanks for any replies
